you get a buff if somebody with your group password defeats a boss, so it’s definitely worth setting something common. i’ve been using “help” and it feels like a dece commonly used one. gonna add “yospos” tonight too

did you use a two-hander for elden ring?

I've been two handing a morning star because I foolishly chose bandit as the start class so I need Dex scaling and that sweet bleed damage

but also as mentioned I went in wildly the wrong direction so have actually got absolutely gently caress all weapons/armour/anything and can't summon spirits either

I've killed a lot of those goblin fuckers though. And crabs. And jellyfish. Idk what this game is about except killing animals tbh

shit wizard dad

I started on HORIZON DAWN ZERO tonight, got through the training-wheels bit of the game where you're a kid, and now running around the first area - I dunno, it looks very pretty but I'm not getting the vibe from it, the 'slow stalking' hunting gameplay is not matching up to 'angry vietnam vet with a shotgun' so far.

I'll give it another hour or so's fair shake though.

being a slow stealthy stalker's a chump game, despite what Rost tries to tell you. at least, with a couple levels and bows with more ammo types

get the talents for nocking double (later, triple) arrows, and the one that slows down time when aiming; get damage arrows on a non-sniper bow, and hunt by shooting multiple arrows several times into your victim's vulnerable spots at medium to point-blank range before the slow time ends

when you can start proccing freeze (arrows, traps, bombs, whatever), do that first whenever you can, then start the damage arrows; precious little can stand up to that for long, especially in the base game

hmm this sounds really enticing, i might have to give h0d another attempt with a newer version of proton, it kept crashing on me after the intro cinematic iirc

after you ring the bells it opens up to being a metroidvania style game. there’s no right or wrong path. if you feel like a path is getting too difficult try going in a different direction for a bit

oh. yeah you want to ring two bells first. the guy at the firelink shrine should have filled you in on that. there's one that's up and another that's down. i forget how much actual info he gives you so that's all i'll say :)

I spent some time sparring with the titanite demon before saying “I’m just going to go explore what’s through that door beyond him” and then dying to a black knight while running from crystal golems.
