Not too hard, just annoying to fight unless you have a blunt weapon since their defense is so high.

This enemy is actually stupid easy to kill if you know what you're doing.

Literally all you have to do is strafe to the right and attack him once or twice then dodge roll his move and repeat. There's virtually nothing this dude can do because his moves come out so slow.

The only time they are a thread are alongside other things, specifically invaders.

You can also lure him to the tree where the guy is throwing spears down. AI will prioritize hitting the crab and you can use the tree to keep him away from you.

really? these guys are pretty easy you just roll. The guys that reall fuckin suck are those lanky shitheads that jump on you claw you up then snap your neck. Unless i get the jump on those fuckers and stun lock them to death I have had a zero percent success rate in killing them.

When it rears up to slam its weight and claws on you, you can just R1 its face for a crit.

The giant enemy crab literally has a weak point you can hit for massive damage.

That's retarded. Why would bones drop a crab? What makes it even break? Does it just take time? Is it a trigger? I think it's a walk-in trigger to have it break. That's usually when it breaks for me But why a crab? Is it a bug? Is it supposed to spawn something else but it defaults to a crab? Is it supposed to never spawn anything but it does spawn something but it only spawns a crab because that's what the default is?

Fuck crabs.

honestly it's either a joke or a quest that got lost in development

of course though idiots will say it's the ~deep~ lore of the game that tells the player that there's crabs in the previous area and also fire crabs in an optional side area

There are a couple skellingtons walking around with what appear to be little wizard hats, who will not aggro, but back away from you if you approach. After killing one, the skeleball associated with it will collapse the next time it hits a wall. I know the first ball that goes up and down the huge staircase is controlled by a skelly immediately to the right in the hallway you enter after the staircase.

the giant helps you at three points in the game if you befriend him. he can even drop dead on his own and drop the hawk ring. though I don't know why he died in my first playthrough.

I mean, they're not really real, though. They're originally illusions created by Gwyndolin, and being created by someone else now that gwyndolin is dead, and they don't go away when you kill Aldritch.

In Dark Souls 1 if you killed gwyndolin they all disappeared, so they're not really real.

Speaking of grabs, I once witnessed the most unlucky host ever. It was the Champion Gundyr fight where most of the time a grab isn't lethal.

Thankyou for saving me the effort of trying. That whole swamp is just maddening. It's not an interesting area, just fucking swamp. Loads of items, some good and some bad so you can't just ignore them all. Constant poisoning. Your enemies consist of a scattering of big slow easy to kill slugs, some cunts that just constantly spam their bullshit grap and jump attacks and those massive monsters who as we all know are just a nightmare to fight.
Probably my least favourite area in any souls game. I can already tell its going to be my "I want to replay a game but then there's THAT area" in future.

did anyone else not find the old demon king hard? I mean did anyone even beat him melee by themselves, I just cheesed him with a bow after dying five times at SL35.

I never saw any openings, he has like three really powerful AOE attacks that he uses if you do manage to get behind him and every one of his attacks pretty much one shotted me.

Just pick up a whole bunch of those Hunters Charms or whatever they're called. They're pretty cheap and they still count if the enemy is on the floor. My tactic is to pary and riposte, throw one when they're on the ground and roll into them and attack because 9/10 players won't realise what's happened and roll back straight away and try to heal.

Lothric is "the place where the kingdoms converge" and not the most logical place. The whole of Dark Souls is not something to be taken "as is" but more like playing through a story. Not everything has to be the right scale or look the same. It's more like reading a book and everyone has their own image of what it looks like.

Dark Souls 2 is a different case though. The shit with the castle and the Harvest Valley just never makes sense. That ain't no book but some shit some drunkard wrote on the wall of a public bathroom.

Somebody at firelink explains the world shifting around.

The kingdoms of the lords of cinder are transient, yet they have converged upon Lothric castle.

This is something that happens when the fires fade.

So basically, the last surviving areas of the world are the places of power with the biggest concentration of fire and souls.

As more and more of the world is swallowed up by the abyss, the remaining areas draw closer together.

The lords of cinder didnt run away from their duties and then just hide a mile away from the guy looking for them. They escaped to the four corners of the world, its just that those 4 corners are getting closer together.

So what with all the meme swords going on, have people had any fun with less common weapons?

I've been messing around with the Pontiff Knight Great Scythe and Curved Sword.

Curved is pretty good damage with a decent moveset. While the weapon art hits 360 and has great range, the second part's frost effect seems kind of useless unless your running some thing else that causes frost.

Pontiff Knight Great Scythe seems pretty great. Apparently it causes bleed even though its not listed and gets an S ranking in dex scaling after upgrading a bit. Don't have the int so can't experiment atm how good the chilling effect of the weapon art is.

>>335184449
If you drag/kite it too far from its "zone" and don't do anything for a bit it just resets. I find the giant crabs the easiest to kill and the only time its done the burrow is when I dragged it REALLY far from where its hanging out.

Spin2Win

If you get the initial dagger hit on that spin its a guaranteed hit for the second spin as it doesn't give them enough time to recover. Follow it up with a R1 instead of the slam and they never see it coming. Get kills all the time with it. It's unwieldy as fuck though.

They didn't really do it on purpose, most of them hollowed, The Abyss Watchers are just going fucking crazy in their home, Yhorm probably wanted to do it but since he hollowed so he couldn't, Aldrich technically didn't want to do it in the first place but was forced into it so I can understand why he'd run away.
