Name a more annoying enemy
I just want to know what this guys day is like.
>>340782698
Well there's other skeletons that roll in the Catacombs without the wheel, so I'm assuming the ones with the wheel graduated from the art of rolling and upgraded to their dumbass spiked wheel.
>>340782698
>this cave is too dark

>>340782583
the mace faggots in the dragon shrine of dark souls 2
You know, the ones with infinite stamina
>>340782698
I bet he has races with all the other wheel skeletons. There's probably like a Catacombs Grand Prix or something.
>>340782583

wow so annoying

Wheeled Warriors!
Reminds me of the first boss in Kenseiden.
>>340784764
desu it can be annoying down at the bottom of the catacombs where there are many of them coming at you at high speeds from every direction.
Yeah, you can lure them out one by one to deal with, but it's a major buzzkill that you can't just run past them because they'll speed up to you and catch you from behind.
Basically RNG: The Enemy
>>340785580
If you're not using a faggy little weapon you can crush them pretty easily.
>>340782583
>Get fucking poise and a shield
>Dodgeroll
Pick one or both
>>340782583
I think the skeleton wheels are fine, they are pretty fun to fight and you can do so pretty reliably. I think there are enemies and areas that are a lot worse than those with wheel skeletons, like Shrine of Amana, because it's not fun or varied or hard and it forces you to go really slowly,
>>340782583
>Hello

Also Dragon's Dogma harpy varients when you're anywhere near a death drop.
But anon, they're easy

Its a source of great shame for me.
>>340782583
Why are you attacking peaceful creatures?
>>340786930
you bring great shame to your famiry, commit sudoku
>>340786930
Not gonna lie, anon, that's pretty goofy.
You do know that you could've gone to Oswald and had him de-aggro Solaire for you, right?

Get out of here, Priscilla. Go back to being Gwyndolin's final memory or whatever.

This fucking autist I didn't use a walkthrough prior to playing. And don't fucking tell me I should've remembered that I could run all the way back to that fucker and fix things.

Cliff Racers
>>340787676
>tfw you're an autist for having functional memory
>>340782583
The knife-throwing skeleton ninjas in the Catacombs of Carthus. Bonewheels are only bad until you get them to run into a wall, which isn't hard. They're mainly a threat in the Painted World because there's no room to dodge in the tunnels.
Also, >>340786142. And Brainsuckers. And Fish Giants. And Bloodlickers. And the maggots in the Nightmare. And fucking bell-ringer witches. About half of Bloodborne's enemies, really.
Russians, children
>>340785267

these faggots

>Put any shield up

>Kill them easily while they're getting back up from the ground
Never understood the big deal people make of them, not once have I had trouble with them in any playthrough.
What the fuck is the lore of the wheelie skellies anyway?
Were they attached to it as they died or was it after the fact?
>>340791337
Breaking wheel?
Dark Souls 3 has less enemy variety than Bloodborne.
>>340792886
This is relevant to the thread how?
>>340782583
Life.
Jailers
Fucking instant kill grab from five meters away bullshit
rom the bullshit spider
>>340792886
True, but unrelated.
>trying to make it back to the surface from the Tomb of the Giants at lower levels, without the lordvessel
You have not played Dark Souls till you've tried this. It's an entirely different game.
>>340793357
>not dodging the shockwaves
What a shitter
>>340782583
The ones in DS3 with instant 270 degree swings and homing R2 attacks.
Which is like half the enemies in the game.
Annoying as shit nonstop growling noises haunt me to this day.
>>340790756
>The knife-throwing skeleton ninjas
Fuck those bitches. Bonewheels were nerfed hard, they don't track you at all and you can just sidestep and catch them with an attack as they roll past. But those ninja skeletons are some real bullshit.
>>340793585
Fuck, don't remind me
>>340786142
winner
oh, were you enjoying this area?
I love Mega Man, but holy fuck.
>>340793794
I would have been fine with the old Bonewheels since there were so few of them and there was space to maneuver. All you have to do is dodge a bit, and it's actually kind of fun. But the ninjas?
>HEY LET ME JUST EVADE EVERY HIT AND ADD TO YOUR BLEED METER
Pain.
>>340794530
They're hard to fight, but they're easy to kill once you figure out the trick.
>>340794704
enlighten me
>>340794240
To hell with those things, especially the ones carrying anchors. The Fishing Hamlet would be a nice, atmospheric, somewhat challenging area if they weren't around. Add one fishfucker, though, and suddenly it's the kind of place you don't even try to fight through- just run to the next lantern.
>>340794551
>you feel a little woozie
>>340794796
Be relentless. Ration your stamina bar, and move in constantly, circling left.
>>340782583
>Oh? What's that? You didn't bother to save? Oh well. Lets hope RNG is with you at least... :^)
>>340794980
>Ration your stamina
>>340795182
>Using a shield at any point
>>340791247

What's it like playing on easy mode?
>>340794980
It's difficult to be relentless and ration your stamina at the same time.
>>340782583
Any enemy from DS3
>>340795315
>>340795340
>It's too hard!
>Use a shield
>WAH EASY MODE FUCK YOU
>>340795223
These things should not be as annoying as they are. They're just little lizards that bonk you with their face and roll around a bit. But somehow they're absolute cancer.

Shameful display.
>>340795502
If you use iron flesh on them they will kill you almost instantly.
Oh hey, how would you like every negative status effect at once?
>>340782583
This whole section.
>>340795394
>Dark Souls is difficult
Water is wet, friend.
>>340783529
Cathedral Greatsword Knights from DaS3 are probably worse than the Dragon Shrine assholes since they're autistically faster and encountered earlier in the game.
>>340795315
Is it just me or is using shields in DaS2 actually harder than just rolling through, especially early-mid game? Stamina drain is ridiculous and the amount of time you're staggered once it runs out is quite punishing, not to mention 100% phys resistance means a lot of extra weight.
>>340795664
Difficult relative to what you normally have to do, I mean.
>>340795808
That's the trick. You can do it.
>>340787676
>Using a walk-through makes you an autist even though it makes any game easier for you
Wow
>>340795663
This was a really great section of the game actually, I felt like a badass knight near the end of my journey walking up the stairs of adversity, cutting my way through some of the last defenses Lothric had.
>>340795663
faggot, that's one of the best sections of the game especially if you solo it
>>340782583
not really, the dino in izalith was worse.
>>340795663
I just ran past them and summoned three golden bros to beat the boss with me.
>>340796115
>>340795996
Yet you bash darksouls 2 for doing the same thing.
Hypocrites
>>340795663
One of my favourite sequences
>>340795975
Of course it can be done. We've all beaten the game here, after all. However, it is much more irritating than most combat, hence why seeing that enemy is an instant signal that life will become less fun for a minute or two.
>>340795456
just a soulsfag things
>>340796174
They nerfed them so hard on the PC version. They should have just removed them.
>>340796214
Colossal faggot. Seriously.
>>340796236
No I don't, nice projecting. I'm gonna get lambasted but I really liked DS2. Obviously the worst of the series but it was fun, I enjoyed my time with it. Nice try though.
>>340795695
Just hit their shield a few times, and they stagger, allowing you to riposte their weak point for massive damage
>>340793357
easy as fuck to manipulate
>>340795695
>autistically faster
What does that even mean? That word has lost literally all meaning.
>>340795663
>not just running past it
It took me two NG+ to figure out that there's an evelator at the top
>>340795663
This got me killed a few times, but it was so worth it.
Those mechs in Ninja Gaiden 2 that would sit at the back of open areas rapidly firing barrages of homing rockets at you.
>>340796515
I did take the elevator after I went through it but still, too much ganks.
>>340796274
>Ask for advice
>Get advice
>B-but that sound t-tricky!
>You can do it
>WELL OF COURSE I CAN DO IT FUK U
these assholes that if they hit you you would have a permanent -10HP unless you decided to let the boy die instead
>>340796401
You're thinking of the Greatmace variant, Greatsword knights don't have a shield.
>>340796502
It means they attack with the speed and fury of a thousand autists.
>>340796236
Going through a wall of enemies is fun when it's a big challenge near the end, not when it's every single part of the game. Also, when blocking and dodging work reliably.
>>340796576
Holy fuck, and if there were two of them your timing for dodging would get fucked and you'd dodge one barrage only to get hit and knocked down by the other.
I loved NG2 but damn did it piss me off at times.
>>340795315
You're not playing DaS1 right if you're not using a shield.
Cliff Racers - I guess it's too old now to remember morrowind
>>340782583
the slimes that drop off the ceiling, damn they always take so long to kill and there are so many of them
>>340796771
>Rapier and parrying dagger isn't playing the game right
Haha, ok.
Also
>Implying there's a 'right' way to play DaS
>>340795502
swing twice
roll to the right to dodge the headbonk
repeat
20 damage per hit, do this 20 times, are you having fun yet?
>>340796605
I wasn't the one who asked. And anyway, you said the trick made them easy. If the trick itself is difficult to pull off, that's not really true.
>>340793357
You know what? I wouldn't be so fucking mad about this shit if they didn't get the most OP fucking defense values when entering the grab animation that last until you/the person grabbed are dead. So many fucking times they had a sliver of health and I couldn't out trade the grab when I was blasting its asshole apart a moment ago.
>>340796771
Bullshit. Every time I beat DS1 I go with a standard longsword, held in two hands, and no shield. Sometimes I'll 2H the bastard sword.
Shields are for pussies who can't dodge, the only time I use them is on the Anor Londo rooftops when I'm charging at those cunt archers.
>>340796830
They're so slow though, and tend to group together, so you can just pyromancy them to death (they're weak against fire) or just use repeated charged R2 attacks to cut through them.
>>340796771
>not getting the dark root grain ring and flipping through the game
>>340796776
Cliff Racers are at least a joke to kill. Still annoying.
>>340796880
>Equip block skill
>block when they drive toward you
>block again when they circle back
>attack when they're dicking around
Seriously I don't understand why people think these guys are hard.
>>340796920
The trick is easy. Circle left, ration your stamina, keep attacking.
How is that not easy?
>>340796776
Too old? I just replayed Morrowind like three months ago. Decided to do a full vanilla run, it was a blast.
But fuck vanilla Cliffracers. I used alchemy to levitate most places and I'd turn around and discover I had aggro'd like 10 cliffracers.

H-HE'S FAST
>>340797127
Because you can't continuously attack and ration stamina at the same time. You'll run low and end up getting hit when you need to dodge or block. And anyway, I've tried aggression on those things. They backflip away and fling kukris.

>>340798193
Including the leftward circle?
>>340798267
Yes, anon, including the leftward circle. There isn't any one perfect method to get in a hit on the skeleton ninjas, the strategy has to change depending on where you fight them. That's why they're difficult. Not impossible, just hard.

If you stay point blank, you can actually prevent them from spawning any lost souls. Get out when they die though, the soul spawn will hit you.
Also this fucker is essentially a giant fuck you to any melee Diablo 1 playthrough. Permanent -1 max HP that you can never remove PER HIT.

I thought there was fog blocking the ladder after Pinwheel until you got the lordvessel.
>>340802193
I think the thing with these areas (frigid outskirts, iron passage and cave of the dead) are built as coop sections in mind. I also think these areas are one of the reasons to test out the added phantom population in scholar patch which shows with those altars as landmarks for summon setup (even NPC phantoms exists for these stages). These areas might also be prototypes or inspirations for chalice dungeons in BB.

Probably. I have a thing where I have to beat the game without summons of any kind, though, and I can't settle with skipping content, so I just gotta power through it anyways
>>340802000
just aggro one at a time and plunge attack from the ladder repeatedly.
wheely skeletons aren't shit. They're slow as fuck and die in two hits to everything.
the Jailers from Irythill Dungeon are complete, 100% bullshit
>get in their LoS
>start to shrink your actual health bar, not your overall health, but the actual size of the bar, to the point where a strong wind can kill you in one hit
probably the only instance where "artificial difficulty" is completely legitimate and accurate in a Souls game. There's no way to avoid it (outside of not going through Irythill Dungeon, which you have to do to complete the game because of Yhorim), and they're placed at the most inconvenient and cheap places in the area. Both of those alone are perfectly fine seeing as the game is all about throwing you into those kinds of situations. But add in the completely cheap and unfair ability to completely reduce your overall health and it's complete bullshit.
Had they done something along the lines of making you super vulnerable to fire/heat in their presence, or having them slow/stun you if you meet their gaze, or anything else that makes complete sense in the world of DS3, there would be no problem at all. But the fact that the only challenge these enemies possess is to directly alter the game itself in their favor is complete and utter bullshit.

Well I do understand what you feel because I have gone through the same thing. And you are correct those horses are the most annoying to deal with beside the snow storm. Then 2 of them suddenly spawns and you know you are not gonna enjoy the ride. I was so smug thinking that each house I encountered was actually the right way to the boss where it was actually a giant bait lurking in the horizon.

Nope. You can go all the way to the Ash Lake side before you hit the golden shroud.
>>340804541
Run up and kill them. After my first tiome through I never had trouble with them again. I even engage the circle of jailers in melee range because they are just so pisseasy. Just don't get hit, they can't kill you with only their health reductions.
>>340795663

>>340783529
Yes, those enemies were full of faggotry.
>>340805676
what? going from dragon slayer armor bonfire is way faster.
>>340793165
This piece of shit
Depends on the game
In DS1, in the valley before pinwheel. Fuck them, fuck them and their mothers. Fuck that they're in a tiny valley. Fuck that they will do continuous damage if they even get anywhere near your character, fuck that it sends eight of them at you at the same time.
Everywhere else? They aren't so bad. Kind of annoying in the DS2 Skeleton Lord fight simply because there are 30 other skeletons I'm trying to deal with, and here comes these fuckers rollin' all over me.
>>340786142
Fuck these things. I don't know what Fromsoft was thinking.
>>340795740
It depends entirely on the encounter. Rolling near 70% is suicide because some enemies have more tracking than they should and end up hitting you anyways(unless you time the roll perfectly). Medium shields are much weaker than in DS1 but upgrading does make a big difference, and it feels like both rolling and shields were nerfed in order to encourage weaving around enemies, although they did a fuck all job of showing that if so.
And the earliest 100% shields you can get are Royal Kite Shield at 4 units and Drangleic Shield at 6 units. It's only really a problem if you're a magician with base Vitality.

>Cathedral GS knights

Those are easy as fuck. Literally all you have to do is roll behind them as they swing, backstab, and then charged heavy attack, which usually finishes them off.
>>340799446
Not that bad, just use Yrden so they don't teleport, then pay attention to when they do and dodge accordingly.

I KNOW I SHOULD MOVE SLIGHTLY BUT FUCK IT WORKS SOMETIMES
>>340806621
Hm, I didn't have any trouble in Earthen Peak, but I was using a DEX build so it was pretty easy to counter the manikins.
>>340796771
only shield you need is the Grass Crest Shield on your back.
>>340806621
I love them since they're more aggressive than anything else in the game, but they can really ruin no-death runs. It's such a shame they were put in one of the ugliest areas of the entire series instead of somewhere interesting.
>>340805915
Nah son, I can run from the elevator by dukes to the boss in 18 seconds.
Elevator to boss from amour is 26 and that isn't counting the walk to the elevator itself
Yes I know I'm autistic
>>340806790
You probably did but just don't remember. Earthen Peak is one of the least remarkable zones in the game. I don't even remember if there's an item worth exploring the whole place for.
STR build or Dex build that doesn't have a pokey weapon results in pain. Best counter to them I've found is to herd them into doorways and just poke so they can't flip around and spam knives, but that clearly won't work for everyone.
>>340806917
I'm autistic as fuck so I'm testing this iut right now.
>>340806979
>Earthen Peak is one of the least remarkable zones in the game.
The only thing I remember about that place is the windmill BS.
>>340806917
Were you having trouble on Twin Princes? I ask because I do this too, time routes to the boss to minimize running time. If not, and you just did it for fun, then yeah, you're autistic.
>>340806621
>yfw they didn't use the anime shit tier pre-release mask
>>340807265
I wear that thing when I co-op. I prefer this to the thief mask.
>>340806790
>>340806979
I mainly remember having fun in that area and not being frustrated, which is what I'm basing my assumption on.

The windmill was dumb as hell and made no logical sense. I actually did it by accident on my first playthrough and had no idea that it had an effect on the boss room until very recently.
>>340807561
>One of the shittiest characters in the series died doing what he loved
It's not fair.
Fuck you.
>>340804541
why the fuck do people complain about the easy ass gimmick enemies when the actual most bullshit enemies are the fucking lothric and cathedral knights. they literally just took the early game enemies and made them do insane damage. on my first play through i probably died more times in lothric castle than everywhere else combined

So, does anyone know the best way to beat her fine ass early on now that the swordmaster/phantom glitch has been patched? I'm thinking bandits knife bleed.

>tfw i beat this naked with a reinforced club at level 14 just to see if i could
>>340808171
Bleed pretty much. Its the only way to actually do extra damage besides poison which is useless.
Otherwise just deal with hitting her for 50 damage for 45 minutes
>my peanus weanus of course!
>>340808483
how much damage did you do per hit and how long did it take you
>>340791043
only old and dying fags will get this
it's time to retire gramps
First play through, everything has been going ok then i get to these fuckers and I can't parry them at all, wut do /v/ should i just hop about like a mad man and 2h my uchi?
>>340809229
with warcry on as much as possible it took around 40 hits and maybe 8 minutes, its not really that difficult if you can get a good combo off when shes transforming since you can trigger bleed again to get a stagger for more free hits
>>340808919
What would cause better bleed, uchi or bandits? I dont know how its calculated, bandits attacks much faster so i would think itd be that.
>>340802763
Enter the gungeon.
If it is a S tier mimic chest he guns you down hella fast and takes fuckload of shots
>>340809790
I know its about 8 or 9 hits with the uchi, if they have the same bleed then bandit since it costs less END
>>340800432
>Just move on and your HP refills.
No it bloody doesn't.
The giant goat things in the swamp scare me
>>340809674
Block, strafe, go for backstabs. Like most humanoid enemies.
>>340809974
Not him but your potential health comes back. So you still have to heal but thats not a big deal
>>340799614
these guys are easy, just annoying in that one big group
>>340810032
Wow, someone made a comic about dsg.
>>340810032
I recommend getting gud at parrying them and get used to fighting them because they're the only thing that drops chunks and you can't buy them
>>340810032
Who in the world had problems with Quelaag?
>>340810397
Me at first because I was so close to her I would always miss the tell for the massive AOE attack that 1-shots you so to me it seemed like she would just randomly explode and kill me.
>>340799186
delet this
>>340810291
True, but I find their timings are quite tricky. Not to mention their bullshit combos.
>>340810603
Fair enough.
>>340810397
I did. She kept surrounding herself in lava so I couldn't get near her and I had a hard time with the AoE
>>340801324
>not buying a bandit's dagger and using Carthus Rouge
>not just using Carthus Rouge on any weapon
They're extremely weak to bleed. I had a +2 Bandit's Dagger and it was bleeding them on every single hit. Killed them almost instantly.
Alternatively, use Kirk's armor and just roll into them when they start standing up since it auto staggers them.
>>340802000
If you go back through the archway it'll pause and you can get a few hits in before it fades away
>>340810689
You could just wait for them to do the spin and backstab them.
Also if you're STR the Zweihander r2 pancakes them (and everything else) and makes them easy mode
>>340803607
They definitely were designed as coop optional zones and many people failed to see it like that, they all had npc summon signs at the beginning of them for that reason.
>hello, i hope you werent planning on having fun in this match
Atleast wheel skeletons don't break chests
Who ever thought of these enemies should be shot.
>>340791043
ive fought these so many times that my moves are flawless against them
>>340810397
Quelaag is the final exam for acknowledging attack telegraphs, since she's the first boss with a dangerous attack whose animation you can actually miss if you're not paying attention. She's pretty tanky and the lava + jump attacks can cause some shenanigans too.
Gaping Dragon is the one that you shouldn't be having problems with ever once you recognise its 2 notable attacks.
>>340793585
Is that even possible?
I wouldn't doubt it since someone got back from ASH LAKE all the way up the tree cause he found it before Queelag, before the Lordvessel.
>>340811658
>get knocked out by explosion once
>proceeds to stucklock you to death
>>340810867
Bandit's dagger + Carthus Rouge is so, so good.

>beat the Nameless King for the first time with it by bleeding him
>bleed the Twin Princes as
WHAT'S THAT SMELL? THE SWEET BLOOD, OH, IT SINGS TO ME
>>340811856
quelaag is pretty easy compared to capra demon and gargoyles (without summoning)
>>340811927
You can't access TotG before getting the Lordvessel, the entrance is blocked off by yellow fog after Pinwheel's arena. I don't know if he means ascending through the Catacombs, which is a bitch in itself. Great Hollow is not really that hard to ascend, it's more just surprising that you can do it. Once you actually try it's pretty obvious what you have to do.
>>340793357
>>340796925
Are you guys serious? Just roll towards them and slightly to the left, so towards their right side. This evades all of their attacks and puts you at their backside, leaving them vulnerable to you exploiting their sitting attack. I barely started my first playthrough of ds2 sotfs a little over a month ago and I admit it took me a solid week to finally learn how to not spam roll and be patient and learn their attacks.
You gutta do just, be patient.
>>340810397
If you didn't upgrade after the Large Ember and didn't kindle the bonfire it could get pretty annoying since you're always poisoned and her AoE can catch you off guard.
>>340812558
tfw i actually missed the bonfire at the bottom of blighttown on my first playthrough
>>340796298

It's a very early development roguelike. Currently, support builds are king because it's more optimal to keep yourself out of harm's way.

Thanks, I don't know why but it reminds me of some ancient Java game that the people who made runescape made a long time ago.
Gonna have some fun tonight.
>>340812450
Have any of you people actually played the game? The golden fog only blocks the end of the Tomb.
>>340816516
Yeah the golden fog only blocks the part with the baby skeletons and the mini Pinwheels
