sick maybe I can wrangle a friend to play this game now. i was never getting two friends let’s be real.
Cowards!
They should do 4 next.
Get that guy I knew who did those awful modded Left 4 Dead nights and just have it be like 30 players and the same amount of enemies. Also everyone is the same character because he “likes it when everyone looks the same.”
I think three of a thing can be a magic number in a lot of cases and I can see why they pushed it. Like reviving a downed teammate is a lot more one dimensional and usually frustrating in games I’ve played where a person drops and there’s just two of us. Still nice to get the mode as an option though
i beat the game
i’m not sure what to do with my evenings now
New everdark boss stinks
Very surprisingly they use that gimmick where you get a weapon drop at the boss and only use that weapon, making prior loot you’ve collected pointless. No reason to use a low HP class either since everyone gets the same attack anyway.
This isn’t a linear Souls game so there’s no story/level context that would normally make a gimmick fight feel like it means something, also gimmick fights are tolerable in normal campaigns because you only do them once so it’s kind of okay to sacrifice fun for a big story moment.
In a way this is nice though because the jellyfish fight already sucked and it was so unlikely you’d get a good everdark fight out of it. If you have to put the stupid weapon drop gimmick in the game then yeah, give it to the worst nightlord.
ooof. well, I guess I’ll do it once to say I did it, but that’ll be that
did the new everdark boss and i think all 3 of us ran out of fp by the time we got the everdark phase down only like 20% hp and it was just fucked
someone at from really loves that storm ruler huh
if u charge it youll regain fp (& it does a more powerful attack after like five seconds charge)
well this is very good to know
both times i’ve faced super augur with random players, we got it to about 15% health before wiping to the giant slow indistinct wall-of-water damage over time area effect. the way that almost nothing about your build matters in phase 2 due to the cloud ruler gimmick feels bad. i get experimenting but the results of this one were too predictable imo
super pest remains my favorite of the everdark bosses
still haven’t done it but i have to admit the idea that they did a gimmick super sword boss again in this context sounds more hilarious than anything else
hope they add bed of chaos in the expansion
Super pest is awesome. The reveal in the everdark fight that one of the bugs is called fartass is the best boss twist that we’ve gotten so far
I just gave that a go, and it was one of those sessions where the third player dropped on day one but we kept with it (also somehow the first time I’ve hit level 15). I have never really messed with offensive magic in souls games so I did not catch onto what was going on it that fight or how exactly to fire off that attack til right before we died. My poor teammate must have been so annoyed with me running around for like ten minutes.
I gotta remember to hold onto my base shield next time so I don’t have to two hand the halberd they gave me.
from clearly reads this thread, you can filter relics by effect now
played this game for the first time with a duo buddy this weekend – had a pretty good time! the revive system is definitely punishing in two player. i imagine someone going down in threes is a lot easier to deal with because there is someone to pick up while someone else draws aggro.
we beat the first dog boss after a dozen or so runs but then i promptly switch to the character that seemed the hardest (recluse) and we haven’t done as well since then lol
I cannot do that Night Idol fight. I tried switching to the iron eye as recommended across the internet and I can make it a bit further against her but I still aren’t coming close. She always backstabs me when I’m trying to deal with the skeleton’s beam attack.
the buffed version of that fight you have to do in a tiny area for the duchess remembrance is like the hardest fight in the game, very dumb design
i ended up having a pretty easy time doing the night idol fight as raider but failed like 6 times as ironeye and wylder before trying him
