Will likely end up having multiples of the same weapon. One would be blessed, one would be lightning. I'm also having some issues thinking about what spells to use though, and whether or not to even bother with offensive miracles given that I can't really use any of the rings.

Would it be viable to switch out the longbuff ring for ring of firstborn if such a situation were to present itself? Is sage ring even viable? etc

Vaati's an unskilled hack that takes shit from 4chan for his lore videos.

Sunlightblade is just annoying.

This is the way that they worked in DaS2, when they were literally useless and nobody used them.

Yup, he's pretty easy. Lots of people get caught in that big combo of his during Phase 2, and apparently curved sword/pyro stance in Phase 1 gives some people trouble.

Oceiros is a stupid fight, since half the time he doesn't do anything except spin to win and the other half you spend 10 minutes chasing after him as he stupidly runs around the arena.

Poise working like it used to would effectively break the longsword/darksword shitters though. R1 spam wouldn't mean shit in heavy armor, the constant lock is the real problem although the damage they push is also pretty stupid if you could stay standing it would be a lot easier/viable to punish with a parry.
>>
>>140903964

Use the Old Demon King's Hammer or the Gargoyle's great hammer if you want to go that route. Astora's GS infused with Chaos is also a good idea.

>>140904065

Profaned GS is a quality weapon tho so it'd hardly be the most efficient for a pyro.

So every boss has a trick to it, right? A trick that, once you figure out what it is, the boss fight becomes easier. Maybe not trivial, but easier.

What is it for each boss?

>Gundyr: Can be parried like a chump

>Vordt: Hug his ballsack and flail away with whatever weapon you have

>Greatwood: Whack the sacks

>Crystal Sage: can get stunlocked in their warp animation with rapid attacks, only the actual copy shoots the purple.

>Deacons of the deep: get a weapon with a wide swing + shank the one currently being possessed by the Bouncing Red Ball

>Abyss Watchers: red-eyed ones are hostile to the main fuccboi, can get him stuck attacking the darkwraiths outside the fog (I killed him for the 3rd time that way)

>High Lord Lolnir: does it really need to be said? If he does his blue cloud vomit run away as swiftly as possible. Also destroy his right bracelet first.

>Pontiff Sulyvahn: whenever he does his kage bunshin nojutsu, hack the fuck out of the clone, it's weak and you won't need to keep track of the duplicated attacks. Secondly, he always seems to try to summon it again, giving you plenty of opportunity to fuck him up.

>Old demon king: fucking idiot who is ON FIRE decides to fight in an arena full of water puddles. Stepping in them will greatly reduce the range and potency of his fire.

What others are there?

>>
>>140904263

You're not going to get damage of it no matter what, so good enough.

>>140904252

You can also parry Sulyvahn and backstab Abyss Watchers. Also if you get the Homing Crystal Soul Mass the Crystal Sage uses as his first attack you can potentially kill him without him teleporting once as he won't teleport until all the soul masses are fired.

Fucking this. I spent a good five minutes earlier on Wolnir because I broke the left two first and he wouldn't stop attacking with his sword. Finally had enough and threw firebombs at his right arm until the bracelet broke.

Crystal Sage Rapier because it's a Rapier.

Can you beat the Greatwood by NOT whacking the ballsacks?

Any tips on Aldrich? I've been runing a sorc/1h sword build and so far, it always worked out, but this bitch seems to be resistant to magic.

you dont know how metas evolve. we have already seen how a souls game with das1 poise works. everyone starts out backstabbing. heavy weapons are worthless. to counter the quick backstab weapons, people choose r1 weapons like longsword to fuck backstab fishers. after that, everyone realizes that spears counter all of that shit and the meta becomes stack as much mobility/iframes as possible and use dragon slayer spears to play keep away and poke like a little fairy

I've been reading around about that since I was curious too, I've for sure killed every mimic in the game and the last one, the one that drops the Sunlight SS in Lothric Castle did not drop the Symbol for me.

The Fextralife wiki claims that it's not a guaranteed chance, but just a much higher than normal chance.
