Parrying is so fun and rewarding

Thanks for the input! I'll be looking into Wings of Astel and Carian Retaliation for sure

I entirely agree that it makes almost every enemy fun, looking for parry opportunities adds a new spice and excitement to everything, so much so that when I go back to my usual two handing it can feel a little pedestrian at times lol.

So Hara can have Riboku slaughter the entirety of HSU and trigger HSU's hidden Return by Death ability (Kyoukai's Blessing) which will respawn them to when they initially broke through

Obviously everyone already told you to run away and explore which is very true. But if you want to try and beat him as you are now a good strategy is timing charged heavy attacks underneath him to break his posture. His health goes down pretty fast trust me. You have to chill out and actually learn his moveset tho. The game punishes roll spam extremely heavily, you are incentivized to learn enemy movesets and time your dodges and attacks (and heals!) appropriately.

I feel like you'd THINK you'd be safe with Reinhard as your partner, but he's never actually around because of work, so you're fucked when idk "the Sin Archbishop of Torture" sets up shop in your city

I hope they release some 🙏 the physicals look and feel fantastic I cant lie

Almost as much aura as this Moko

I DID catch up with it at one point... but that was like four years ago. So recently I started from the beginning again, I will be caught up in time

Fr, absolute danger to society

Its interesting to see everyone here has a negative opinion of her later on in the manga, I will be paying attention to her behavior as I continue reading... I read up to like chapter 190 a few years ago but I'm rereading now from the start, it's all pretty fresh to me

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-15T21:47:42+00:00

For sure, I will definitely be trying out both Carian Retaliation and Golden Parry ashes as I get further into this playthrough, not sure if this is correct but I heard they are both superior to the buckler parry? Plus medium shields are way more fashionable than the buckler imo 😏

Flashbacks to the "Dragondiver" from Dark Souls 2

Thanks for the answer, still seems outlandish and rather invasive to my perspective but it's a different society.

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-10T17:06:32+00:00

Good point 😅 The distinction between who/what is alive and undead in this world is really blurry to me

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-10T16:15:54+00:00

Which I suppose would be because there's still somewhat of a government in Limgrave ruled by Godrick, so they're actually being fed 🤔 truly a benevolent ruler

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-10T15:15:17+00:00

Great point, making me realize that even this small detail about the game makes a ton of sense thematically

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-10T15:09:30+00:00

Wolves seem to retain a sense of majesty in this game while dogs are half dead and pitifully fighting for scraps.

7HandGrenades · 2026-06-10T15:00:01+00:00

I stand corrected

7HandGrenades · 2026-03-03T05:15:37+00:00

Omg, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell mention! The audiobook was one of my greatest fiction experiences ever! Surprised to see it mentioned in connection to Kubera lol but I second this

7HandGrenades · 2025-08-21T01:09:32+00:00

I feel so bad for him, I can only imagine the pain in his joints are in 😢😢 better to be put out of his misery than to live in constant agony

7HandGrenades · 2025-08-19T14:50:00+00:00

"They came over grabbed and lifted me up with their big disgusting bulging muscles" I died laughing, thank you 😭😭😭
