just fuck these thing, holy shit. I should have went to Anal Rodeo instead.
>Can reduce your max health without touching you
>Then poises through your shit to murder your ass
What were they thinking?
>>335996645
Yup. They're pretty rude.
try ranged battle
Oh? What's that? You went meleeshitter?
then*sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss*
>Jailers
>Screaming corpses
Fuck this area.
ring ring
>Looking at the healthbar after fighting 4 of these guys in a row for the first time
Why were these ones invisible?
>>335996857
So pirates would get fucked
>>335996857
To corner the player the first time they get the keys.
>>335996645
they arent really bad. im not one of those "i didnt find this easy, git gud" people. those enemies are annoying yeah, but surely theyre not even near the top.
get back here and complain when you deal witht he fire witches and their track you across the map and around corners flame trail
>>335996857
THERE ARE INVISIBLE ONES, WHAT THE SHIT?!
>>335996645
Enjoy that room with like 8 of them. Seriously, it wasn't even hard, just tedious as fuck. Thanks FromSoft
>>335996972
thats it, just those two. deliberate trap, thats all it is
>>335996645
Man, I'm disappointed in their weapon. Fire damage with no int scaling and also accepts no infusions. What a blunder.
Is it more useful for str/dex chars?
>>335996931
i found the fire witches infinity easier than these shitters
>>335996979
this. just arrow, knife, etc. something to kite them out one by one.
>>335997058
Doesnt make sense since jailers are one of the easiest enemies to deal with in the game as long as you dont get surrounded. but ok.
That room with the stairs and three of them. I dont know why but i died the most in that room counting bosses.
>>335996857
>>335997014
That was stupid as shit, just like the basilisks near the mimic. A trap that you can't foresee and enemies you can basically only kill by springing it.
>>335997249
>basilisks near the mimic
i tried looking, where the fuck did they come from
>>335997017
>When an enemy is struck with this weapon estus recovery is reduced for a short period of time.
>>335997160
first melee attack can stun you, second attack has a good chance to kill you if your max health was lowered, and it will be. fire witches are literally useless in melee, all you gotta do is rush to them and kill them before the can fire their shit at you.
>>335997318
they drop from a hole in the ceiling
>run past them
>stab gollums in the face
>etc
I just don't understand how they drain your HP without any line of sight or whatever the fuck.
>>335997249
Also the Berserk wolf phasing into existence on that bridge.
>>335996645
The lifedrain can't even kill you. You can fight them all at the same time at 1hp, just dodge the slow melee attack.
>>335997160
Don't be a dipshit. Every other enemy in the game is stuff you fight in any Souls game, either something that attacks you physically, or something that shoots magic at you. These guys on the other hand have their own, unique attacks that don't follow the standard conventions. As long as you're in their line of sight, your max health decreases. Then, if you're unfortunate enough to get hit by their attack, it stuns you, then they follow up with a move that will likely finish you off. Next you're gonna say Winter Lanterns are the easiest enemies in Bloodborne.
>>335997386
as if you can get hit by the jailors. come on son, please. everyones got their own difficult enemies/bosses. but i wont believe this jailor thing for one bit.
>>335996857
They aren't invisible you actually could see part of them from the right angle
>>335997458
Yeah, they didn't even have the decency to have him crawl down from the bridgehouse or something
>>335997458
And the Wolf Spider thing in the Cathedral. I saw a message that was 'be wary of up', so I really wanted to see it clinging to a wall, but it just appeared from nowhere, too.
>>335997249
What? You can clearly hear the basilisks when you walk past the hole they pop out of.
>>335997507
comparing the winter lanterns that acitvely damage you over time without touching you to the jailors that cant even hurt you without touching you. if you get hit by them, its your own fault.
i got hit by one of them once and it grabbed and killed me. after that you realize the mistake and it never happens again
>>335997058
the only hard thing about the fire witches is that they're surrounded by enemies all the time so you can't just run straight at them and fuck them up, once you fight them solo it's almost impossible to die to them since half of their attacks fly right over you
>>335997656
>but it just appeared from nowhere, too
No, he isn't
He literally crawls or if you too close jumps down
>>335997524
Dark Sword shitter, I presume? If you're using a slow weapon, and either happen to miss, or the attack doesn't knock them on their ass, you're getting branded.
>>335997656
It is on the ceiling senpai, same as the one in anor londo
>>335997807
Really? I definitely did not see him from anywhere in the room before entering/while entering/until picking up the item.
>>335997657
Yes you can hear them. The hole isn't that easy to spot, but it's definitely not impossible. But there's no way to get to them except springing the trap and that's stupid
>>335997807
>>335997656
just can sit outside the door way and arrow or magic him to death. so silly
>>335997819
>Dark Sword shitter, I presume?
i dont think i ever got that weapon to be honest. if i did, i dont remember because its in my storage with everything else
The jailers only health drain when their lantern glows red and they are facing you. Lantern usually lights red as soon as you strike them but if you're behind them you're clear. Hope that helps. Get ds greatbow if you have to and stagger them, run up and rape from behind. Or just throw knives and kite around a corner. Line of sight breaks the hp drain also, though some walls seem to be broken for los. Hope that helps.
>>335997872
Yeah, I didn't catch him either on my first playthrough, though I was looking up because things seemed to quiet. I did see him my second time though.
>>335997889
How is that stupid? Basilisks can't even damage you, you can just run away if they spray curse shit and poke at them when they chase you. You might have a point if it actually dumped out dangerous enemies.
>>335997329
Yeah five seconds, it's worthless in pvp
>>335996857
kill one of them the other just looks at me with those eyes
>>335997934
Wow I'm half out of it and repeating myself...
>>335998003
And they even can curse mimic...
>>335998053
-_- why u do this
>>335996645
Just Charge an R2 and knock their ass down when they get close, then charge another while they get up and rinse, repeat, it's not complicated.
>>335998120
thank you. theyre laughably easily overpowered
>>335998120
The last thing I wanna do is sit there charging an attack when my health is disappearing. Which is why I use an ultra greatsword. I was able to literally charge right in the room with like 8 of them, run around the middle part they circle, knocking them down as I went.
just found this, what the fuck did they do to alva's set, fucking blocking up all the slits? what the shit man. how does anybody see with this shit?
>>335998361
your health only goes down so far. it wont kill you
>>335997819
Calling other people shitters when you can't beat such an easy enemy? Please go back to simpler games.
>>335998423
Are you implying that the helmet was good looking in DS2?
>>335998451
Yeah but literally any attack will. They're not hard but they're certainly annoying how they force a specific playstyle on you. That open area where karla is located is definitely the worst offender. On some builds you either have to play incredibly tediously or take big risks. Poorly made enemy.
>>335996645
>what are bows?
>>335998661
i-i though it was a nice looking armor set, sorry i have shit taste senpai.
What's the most annoying enemy in the game?
Pic not really related, I just kept getting my ass handed royally when I first encountered these
>>335997386
>First hit can stun you
Actually that's not true, the first hit and the one that pins you down has enough time for you to roll out unless you tried to blow through the second hit.
Which doesn't work because it has hyper armor.
>>335996645
Every encounter with these except the 10+ in the single room can be killed before they start the HP max drain sight and then you can dash out afterwards if you somehow took too long to hit them and got drained.
They aren't that bad because except for the room with a shitload you can set the pace on fighting them. You will always instigate and it's not hard to kill them in a single combo.
>>335998914
The ones posted in the OP.
>>335998914
>What's the most annoying enemy in the game?
All dancer type enemies
>>335998514
Did I say I couldn't? None of the Souls games are hard. The Jailers are the curveball enemy of the game though, who, when nothing else proves much of a challenge to series veterans, can actually throw you off guard. I just think it's silly to say they don't even rank among the most difficult enemies in the game when every other enemy is just the same "dodge, attack" deal.
To be honest, I never died to them until my 2nd playthrough, when I was carelessly rushing through the area and got myself sandwiched between two. I didn't even notice the health drain until killing my third one because I was using the FUGS, and my playstyle was just rushing straight at any enemies, so I was knocking them to the ground before they could do anything.
>>335996857
I nearly shit myself when they surprised buttsexed me. Died and angry message on the ground followed
my rage for these whores was offset by the sense of dread these creepy assholes put on me
the first one that does nothing but look at you made me stop playing for a bit, I actually had to calm myself for a bit to keep playing
>>335998423
What sword are you wielding ?
>>335999332
astora greatsword, refined. its fucking fantastic so far, though i wanna start using profaned greatsword soon.
Since there's no boss for Irythyll Dungeon does that mean that you can always be invaded there? Or does killing Yhorm in the Profaned Capital also effect Irythyll Dungeon?
>>335999447
Might test it on my quality build then. I must have a refined gem somewhere. Thanks
>>335999479
Pretty sure its killing yhorm that cuts invasions there.
>>335999576
i got it to +7 i think, and it has B/B scaling, add weapon buffs like flame arc, make this weapon beastly.
Has anyone else been having problems with terrains loading? Did the patch fuck something up or did i? Game worked perfectly till yesterday
>>335999723
Is the weapon art good ?
>>335999913
it uses the spear weapon art where you charge at the enemy and use strong attack to extend the charge.
What does a "quality" build mean?
>>335996857
>enter the room
>think it's some sort of invisible wall glitch, since there's basically no invisible enemies normally and no one was invading
Fuck you From, breaking your own rules for a cheap scare is fucking Goosebumps level of shit
Those weird dogs with human faces make me really unnerved. They're not even hard to fight or do anything interesting, they're just fucking creepy looking. And then there's those few corpses that scream at you. Almost made me shit my pants the first time.
>>336000158
It's a holdover from DeS. It means equal parts Strength and Dexterity. Refined gems make weapons "quality" weapons.
>>336000158
A balanced build, I think. Esentially a jack of trades type of deal.
>>336000158
It refers to one of DeS weapon upgrades, called quality. It's when you invest equally on str and dex because the weapon scaled equally on those.
>>336000058
Nice that charge is nasty
>>336000158

>host is so laggy everything just slides and teleports around the boss room
>after 3 min of whacking respawning watchers get an error message
Well that was fun.
This area was more stressful than most horror games. Fucking hell.
>>335996857
what weapon?
>>336000461
I still hear the screams
>>335998423
Probably an oversight. Can't imagine that shit is intended. Hope they fix it, Alva is one of my favorite sets.
>>336000639
Warden blades I believe.
>>335999839
Yup. Scared the shit outta me when the host "Hey'd" me.
I thought it looked so fucking cool.
>>336000459
I helped people with Watchers yesterday and literally 8/10 times the first phase of the fight was just everyone gliding around and me just whacking the boss
>>335998914
So far I really hate the pontiffs in Ithryll. Having a shield makes them pushovers but I play with no shield and these things have insane range, speed and damage. And they're usually not alone.
>>335996857
>Go to check the window
>Notice I can't get to it
>Attack, kill them both
Wow it's fucking nothing. If you got fooled by these I'm sorry you're retarded.
>>335996645
you just gotta run at them and mash r1, they're like the slowest enemy in the game
they are very intimidating at first sight though
>>336000996
their fucking infinite sword dance is a pain in the ass.
>>336000456
You just implied that you have trouble with literally every other enemy, fuckwit.
>>336001106
roll to the side four or five times and try not to let more than two see you otherwise you are going to get fucked.
the ones with the shield will usually be a good kick opportunity for a free critical
>>336000856
Yeah, same here. Also 3/5 of the time the host hadnt even tried to fight the boss before summoning. I'm all for helping people but come on now
>>336001238
Didnt imply anything of the sort.
The jailers are easy as shit to deal with. It sees you? You smash it into the dirt ASAP. Your health drops depending on its eye contact with you.
The only enemies I ever truely had trouble with is in the swamp with those tree swinging cunts that also launched souls at you and the punk ass crabs. And that was I skipped an area on accident and went there at a low level.I still cleared it out
>>336001584
You're so cool anon. How can I become like you ?
>>336001003
>Go to check the window
>Can't get to it
>Started to run against it, jumping and other shit
>Still can't get to it
>Take my time to restart the game
>Still can't get to it
>Think there might be more bugs ahead so I'll wait with that area
I wish there was a hard-counter to their ability. Like the blindfold headgear would nullify it. Best way to deal with them seems to be to shoot an arrow at a wall to make them turn in that direction and then rush them.
>>335996645
Why do they have peace sign shaped brands?
>>336003867
It's more mercedes benz
The second phase is hard, is there a trick apart from getting good?
>>336004087
Switch all your flasks to health if you haven't already. It's a pretty long fight.
>>336004087
Not really. Just focus on dodging when Lothric summon his dozen magic missiles, and try to always get on their back to hit both at the same time. You can go wild when Lorian dies and Lothric is reviving him
>>336004087
Try ally
>>336004243
Don't go too wild and get hit by the magic explosion though.
>invader using estoc

>I'm wielding the Astora Greatsword

Chooo chooo motherfucker!
>>335996857
If I remember correctly you can actually see them if you're looking into that room from outside the window. Still, I'm glad for the helpful "duo ahead" and "try attacking" messages when I actually got there.
>>335996645
>I never leveled up vigor till untended graves
>these guys show up
Pffhaha
Like I give a dam.
>>335996645
Just rush them and stunlock them, they're not that bad, the only point where they pose a problem is when theres like 15 in one room
>>335996645
That level was just a poor mans Latria
>>336005762
>poor man's latrina
how terrifying
>>335998914
Fucking dogs not only are they fast as shit but they hit like fucking tanks on NG+5 and i swear to fuck they teleport as well
>>336006337
>i swear to fuck they teleport as well
There's something weird going on with enemies that come into view from off-screen. Sometimes when a dog should be chasing me and I've got my camera pointed forward, I'll see the dog teleport into the air behind me and fall downward even though we were running on even ground.
More notably, the first time I beat the tree boss, afterwards I rotated my camera to get a look at my surroundings and when I looked up, two enemies spawned at the level where the floor used to be, only to fall down and die. I even got souls from it so they weren't just ragdolls. The same thing also happened yesterday when I was exploring the grand archives, I think I was at the highest level and I turned to look at the center of the room where a thrall appeared and promptly fell to its death.
>>336006337
I'm pretty sure they do. They just appear on screen and get dropped down. Their aggro even seems to reset.
>>335997859
Not him but if you look up there's nothing but a black void. He may drop down from it, but I couldn't see anything when I looked up in my second playthrough.
>the room with the 4-man patrols

>>335996857

>>336009318
Yeah it's pretty fucking silly how 90% of the game there are mobs waiting for you to pick up an item to ambush you. A cheap trick that gets tired really fast.
>>335997249
You can also see these jailers through that window behind them if you look into that room from the giant pit ;)
>>336000461
>lets just put put some screamers in
