most annoying enemy in the game right here

That's not the giant chain axe variant
>>342082794
You can roll through that easy if it's alone. The little ones can hit you before you manage to say "HAIAI". They have a shitton of hp as well.

Hello, I'm here to ruin your day. Was less than thrilled to learn they returned in pre-sequel.

For me they've been little bitches
I use a lightning bastard sword
They flinch and then they ded in two swings
DUDE INFINITE AMMO LMAO

It was pretty frustrating, especially considering he's invincible.
>>342083091
>it's a dragon that is completely immune to several abilities episode
I've had to kill several dragons by spamming miasma, it's not fun.
>enemy has infinite stamina
>>342083618
Well they trigger me because I use the Greatsword. In order to hit them i have to back off first or they will stagger me mid attack if i mess up the timing. I don't have a huge problem with them but they are the ones I remember as being most annoying to me.
>>342082207

>>342083803
I have a shitty habit of self insert
So I always dress in knight armor or preferably some dark hunter like armor
I then wield a lightning bastard sword and arbalest and use healing miracles
So I play fully immersed as a holy hunter
Currently loving the drang set although I don't like the gimp chains on the chest piece
4 Spells at the same time ;^)
>>342083091
you forgot
>Dragon roar wipes out all your pawns
I loved DD but god damn that was some bullshit
>>342082432
these fucking faggots are only a problem if you have to get close and hit them, as long as you have any kind of weapon with reach, they become harmless, I had no problem with my greatsword character and my pyro, but they gave me a huge problem with my katana character, so much so that I just fucking book it to the final bonfire for that fucking area.

>An enemy who's main attack is to knock you flat on your ass, hit you once or twice, then repeat as you try to find where you're going
It's legitimately one of the most infuriating enemies I've ever seen in video games. They just constantly knock you down which then gives them time to get a few cheap hits in, and then you have to wait for Heather to slowly get up. Add to it the fact that they can come in groups of three, are difficult to kill because of their knock down, and are placed in some of the more difficult to navigate areas (the ones in the office area are a nightmare).
I guess it's kinda a given, but fuck enemies whose sole purpose is to inflict as many status ailments as possible.
>Ambushed
>Bad Breath
The stuff of nightmares.

In my opinion, cosplay makes the game more fun by preventing min-maxing and giving you a set of rules to follow which make one of your characters differ from the others.
Because if you want to make the best possible build you can just go quality and use the black knight halberd or do a bleed build with the bleed katanas using bleed cream. That's no fun IMO so good for you.
>>342084442
>not having a Ribbon on everyone
What's with the plebs today?
>>342084532
every time i see people using "the best" they die incredibly fast.
>>342084532
Nah like I said I don't break immersion
My character is a holy hunter that uses a bastard sword and an arbalest to compliment it
Situationally when it's not effective I use one more weapon but don't unequip my main sword
On a side note a recent update made it so that you can have 600 arrows instead of 99 in the bonfire box yay
>>342083653
Lead Elixir
>>342084608
Sure, that's the ideal. But a couple of FF games had it where you could encounter Malboros before getting ribbons. So at the most you could block like two or three ailments on a character.
>>342084118
Hello there
Fuck you Fat Joe. I still remember it like it was yesterday
>>342082207
They're easy enough but have that shitty range spell/grabSLLLLUUUURRRRPPPP
>>342084706
I see what you mean, but the people who use guides to get the best possible build usually are shitters.
That doesn't change the fact that there are some builds objectively superior to others regarding PvP.
Especially if you analyse PvP down to its basic components which are: weapon moveset, control muscle memory, hitbox knowledge, roll and parry timing knowledge, raw damage, mental endurance and the ability of reading your opponent to predict his actions.
Unfortunately raw damage and weapon moveset tend to compensate for the rest, which is why I claim that there are superior builds.
>>342085003
+1 to this.
It doesn't help that they suck away your insight, something that is in limited quantities in the game.
>>342085003
So what are they sucking? Does my character grow literal eyes inside his head when insight increases? Is he just vacuuming an eyeball or two out?
>>342082207
Spam both bumpers as fast as you can and you'll take less damage.
This works for any grab attack that deals damage over time.
Doesn't work on grab attacks that deal all of their damage in one burst though.

Pic related is pretty shitty mostly because of the rooms they appear in
>>342085197
Yes. That is exactly right.
>>342085003
The damn stun shot got me a billion times in the upper cathedral my first playthrough.
I must have lost 50 insight, I was ashamed for a week.
nothing will be more bullshit than this in a from software gaem
This is the only mob that I had to google how to beat. Spent all 70 of my insight to try lower my resist so I wouldn't explode after killing this nigga.
>>342085431
>>342085497if you visceral, you take no damage from frenzy
>>342085239
Thanks for the tip. Here's another in return: if you sprint while holding block and then stop moving completely (still holding block), you can then attack with the sprint moveset. Also bundles can be used while sprinting without interrupting your sprint.
>>342085642
Neat, thanks
>Suicide bomber enemies
>Suicide bomber enemies that don't do damage to their friends
>>342085575
oh we know, but playing through the game the first time you wouldnt know how to do deal with this monstrosity
>>342085431
>>342085497
they're incredibly easy if you equip the frenzy res rune for them. You get it from the forbidden woods so you'll have it long before you face these guys.
>>342085431
>>342085497
>kill while taking the minor frenzy damage
>use blood vial
>take frenzy burst damage
>use another blood vial
>if health starts getting actually low, pop another blood vial to max health
they arent actually hard enemies combat wise, and frenzy doesnt kill you if you're at or close to full health.
or if you're not bad you can just time a visceral to be in animation during the frenzy fill
or if you're really bad, sedatives
>>342085998
The first time I fought these guys I had 80 insight.
Even if I exposed myself to them for literally 1/10 of a second, the frenzy gauge would fill up.
I just thought they were the most bullshit enemy in the game, unavoidable damage.
Then I read that insight makes frenzy fill faster and it all made sense.
>>342085431
>>342085497
>mfw had 99 insight at nightmare of mensis
>mfw read what high insight did after I beat the game
>>342084031
I still don't understand how you beat him the first time without abusing the hell out of jude
>>342085497
They're not as bad as they're made out to be, I reckon. Wear some frenzy res gear.
r1>r1>dodge grab>second dodge to fully get behind them>r1>r1>ded>heal with whatever
Dodge grab isn't needed if you have a heavy weapon which can stagger
>>342083091
god damn garms were the worst
couldn't do shit on my mystic knight character
>>342085003
All grabs in these games should be interruptible by mashing attack, and depending on the grab's animation and how high your strength is it should be easier/harder to break the grab. These fuckers literally just grab your collar then touch your head with an ice-cream scooper while your character just stands there with both hands free crapping his pants.
>>342082207
Hey fellas
>>342085003
you really don't expect its grab to follow you and turn 180°, wait too much and it uses magic
molotov + bone marrow
fuck those things, I don't even touch them
>>342085197
they suck brain fluid, where the insight is

>>342090332
Hated these guys when I first got there but then that became my invasion hangout and I look at them like old friends.
They are very easy once you master their moveset and realize you can even roll out of the knockdown before you get one hit KO'ed if you have enough life left.
These fucking things. I'm still stuck fighting Cerberus and his satyr cronies after almost a year of trying.
>>342082207
I want to ____ that goat!
>>342085138
hit Chalices anon
you literally won't know what to do with all that insight
These enemies can only be described with this video.

>>342095483
They're cunts for sure, but gunshots or blood damage will knock them down and give you time to recover. Same goes for regular dogs and any sort of spidersMinus the big one chilling in Mensis
>>342083860
I came here to post this.
