This is the easiest platinum of them all lmao, the OG ps3 demon souls platinum was an actual nightmare farming a bugged enemy drop .01% drop rate item. This demon souls version doesn’t make you max out 1 of every upgrade tree. Wait til bloodborne platinum or DS3 grind fest

[@BullFrogFace]

Only hard part of the Bloodborne plat is dragging yourself through the chalice dungeons

[@MacAttackPlays]

I heard DS3 was a nightmare but bloodborne?

[@colemcgrath644]

@@MacAttackPlays *very slight mechanical spoilers* chalice dungeons assuming you don’t use the player created glyph that negates the OG 5 chalice pathway the game normally intended for use to get to the final boss of chalice 5, has chalice #4 cut your HP in half and puts 2 bosses that will one shot you at said hp values. The watchdog and Amygdala, which normally aren’t really too bad but since chalice dungeons lock you in a tiny room with giant bosses with big AoE attacks it means 1 mistake will cost you the entire run. Now there are work arounds to make it easier, players that modded their PS4’s can create chalice glyphs and essentially create their own chalice dungeons and it gets uploaded and saved so anyone, even non modded PS4’s can use and someone made a modded chalice #4 dungeon without the HP reduction debuff which makes this whole argument null since it’s the only real challenge for platinum when doing it originally. Still counts for the trophy so your call on what choice you make, there is also chalice glyphs that let you fight unused bosses; albeit some have missing animations since they were unfinished but they can make for cool content too. Also yeah DS3 isn’t difficult but you will want to make a 2-5 hour playlist of your favorite music while repeatedly grinding enemies praying to rngsus for 30, 1% drops multiple times for items/spells tied to covenants that are tied to trophy’s

[@colemcgrath644]

@@BullFrogFace yeah but the defiled chalice dungeon is a pain in the ass; assuming you don’t use the modified player glyph one that takes away the HP reduction debuff, it still counts for the trophy either way but doing it the intended route in that defiled chalice sucks when 1 mistake with giant bosses with huge AoE attacks in a tiny room will one shot you.

I'm sure this doesn't help at this point, but if you want the Tower Knight to slam his shield down then you need to be up close to him. If you're out of range, he's going to use his ranged options (in this case his long spear) whereas ranged options wouldn't be appropriate up close

Hey I’m new into these open world games. Just bought Elden ring, demons souls, and dragons dogma. Is it normal for players to use so much magic in these games? Reason I’m asking is because it seems boring having magic absolutely obliterate bosses and enemies. Makes the game look like a cakewalk as opposed to sword and weapon combat. I know I can use what I want but my question is how normal is it for players to use magic in these open world games?

It is normal nowadays but it’s make the game kinda easy just to get out of range of the opponent and then use magic the whole time. In my opinion it destroys the game.
