Dark Souls 2 (PC/PS4/XB1/PS3/360)

Thanks! That helps a lot, I just needed a direction... I think it has something to do with that contraption, but at least I am not wandering around so aimlessly

Have you cleared Heide's Tower yet? It's another area off of Majula.

A little spoilerific, but if you're lost... (world map)

Yeah I just bumped into Heide's tower. Ugh, how the hell did I miss that before lol

[Souj]

So why is it that drakes are some of the easiest enemies in the game?

EDIT: I really don't like sunset staff; slow casting speed, and very low base damage for dark

It gets most of its damage from upgrades. It starts off low but at +5 it's the highest base damage dark staff around.

[fantasticdan]

What is the base damage at +5?

[kisada]

what are the weight tiers in this game? is it 25/50/75% whatever?

[fantasticdan]

The only noticeable tiers from what I can tell are ~70% and >70%. At 70 and below you will normal roll, over 70 you will slow roll. You will roll slightly farther at lower percentages, but seemingly not faster, and there don't seem to be any obvious break points for this.

[Krandor]

It slightly affects movement Speed and the invulnerability frames on rolls, but no real hard break points other then 70%

[Kaelan?]

What is the base damage at +5?

290

I'm fairly certain neither of those are true.

290

290 for dark? It definitely pulls ahead of +10 black witch than. Iirc black witch 220 to all schools on normal path, and 260-something for dark or magic if you change it to one of thoses paths. What is sunset on magic?

[Krandor]

I'm fairly certain neither of those are true.

After rolling around right under 70% for a long time, I noticed a difference after using a soul vessel and getting load into the mid 50s.

Invulnerability frames on rolls was from a link posted earlier in here in regards to ADP testing. Lower load levels added a couple extra frames on rolls.

[Kaelan?]

Pretty low, like 160ish I think. I use a different staff for sorceries.

[Avarice]

Are there any NPCs that sell Bows; just normal ordinary bows? I accidentally sold my old one to Gavlan when I was clearing out a lot of junk.

[Datonare]

The only one that comes to mind is the composite bow, which is sold by the crow lady after rescuing her

Yep, that works. Thanks.

[Tyrath]

So apparently i missed all the tutorials at the start of the game. I saw too many paths to go into, didn't take any and kept going. Discover half way through forest of the giants that I was supposed to go into those places rofl.

You're gonna have to explain the logic on this one to me.

Also did anybody else decide to attack the

Spoiler: show

Ancient Dragon?

:D

Cause his fight is kind of a bitch. Nothing he does is particularly hard to dodge, but if you mess up once you're dead because everything he does one-shots you. I've died with him at 10% because I got one-shotted by being too close to the shockwave from him landing.

[Tyrath]

You're gonna have to explain the logic on this one to me.

I figured they were all different areas the way Demon's Souls was formatted. Thought I'd explore the current one a bit more. I'm also gonna add this was when I started the game tuesday and I had the flu which kept me from playing much after that. Now that I'm playing again I continued where I had left off and forgot about those mist doors until just now. I'm still only like 2 bonfires into the Forest of the Fallen Giants so I didn't miss them for too long lol.


Gotta say, really not a fan of enemies going extinct after you kill a certain number of them.
