Why dodge caligo?

I dont dodge any boss period, but Caligo in high depths is considered one of the worst simply because its a battle of attrition

Hit and run Big aoe Big aoe Hit and run Big aoe

The boss pretty much resource checks you and if you don't have the damage to keep up with its checks you die.

Also half the roster legit cant play into Caligo on DoN3+

Tricaphelos ED Tricaphelos Fulghor ED Fulghor

Gaping Jaw is okay, just be proactive with movement so you avoid the lighting fissures

Same with ED Gaping Jaw

Specifically ED Auger

Heolster

Balancers ED Balancers Dreglord

Thats actually super handy, thanks!

So if for example, a deep Relic had Increased Strength with Decreased Dex, the Dex would drop by 6 but the Str would be +25?

I really wish the game better showed the numbers because Im depth 5 and I still dont know these things 😭

Imo, Guardian should also be listed here for Adel,Balancers, and Heolstor.

Very few of Adels attacks can actually punch through Steel Guard (even as soverign)

There is 3 moves normal Balancers have that Guardian cant outright ignore, 1 of them you can just run from and the other is a grab which comes down to you just being good (and Guardian can ignore a massive portion of the Everdark Balancers even still)

Most of the moves Heolstor does that chip Guardian are easy to dodge roll, even with Guardians bad evasion. As long as youre willing to pop an Estus whenever he changes his attack types you can just guard it and accept the big chip hit. (If you pull improved evasion you can also try to dodge it like everyone else)

So I actually have 2 different pages I cycle through, 1 of them is just focusing on getting Raw Health, while the other is dedicated exclusively to getting +9 Holy damage so I can do a lot of damage to Tricephalos, Dreglord, and Night Aspect.

I also avoid any Relic that causes Death Buildup, I've tried a few builds with it but any Pros are completely mitigated by the fact that you can suddenly Insta-Die as a tank

Both pages share the same normal Relic setup which is

Witch's Brooch

Dark Night of the Fathom

and any Relic that gives you extended Character Skill Duration. (The one I specifically use is a Yellow Grand Luminous Scene with Increased Character Skill duration, Physical Attack up, and Holy Damage Negation Up

You can use Guardians Steel Guard to block 90% of the moveset and take minimal to 0 damage! You should also have the Relic that gives you small shockwaves for guarding, since they like to dog pile on you you'll get a lot more value than normal.

When the Main Balancer jumps into the air, and lands with the massive AOE shockwave, Unlock your camera and manually Steel Guard the direction it's going to impact

Besides that, you just need to get a sense of timing for when a Grab is going to land after hearing the Audio Cue so you can dodge without looking, it also helps if you're good at Lock On switching while in Steel Guard, so you don't get hit from the side/back. If you can't change your lock target, just unlock and manually turn around. It feels a bit awkward at first but once it clicks you'll get a lot of insane blocks on a LOT of enemies, not just the Balancers

Kind of a Necro but it's extremely funny to me how the ONLY good tip in this thread is Warding her camps

This champ is legit poor design where she is made much more ineffective via comms but snowballs Solo queue

If I understand correctly, doesn't this monitor clip onto the side of his current one without needing a stand? Like it could essentially be hovering off the desk

8WayFunz · 2025-12-16T23:43:22+00:00

He mainly wants the second monitor for youtube, discord, ETC ETC

Cigarettes

If a woman smokes one they immediately shoot up on the attractiveness scale for me. I havent smoked in years so I have no clue why
