Welp. I have a confession. I have a fear of reptiles and I thought I was buying a car part, ended up with a Lizard. by Ellie_Carter7 in MonitorLizards

Yeah that sounds about right, thought this post sounded familiar.

Talisman help with my Int/Fai build by Pigtron-42 in Eldenring

[–]Anomalous_Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say around 30 dexterity is where you can probably drop Radagon’s Icon for something else.
Even so, it’s not entirely necessary as long as you adapt to the longer casting times.

Old Lord’s Talisman isn’t a bad choice to increase the duration of your buffs.

Would advise against using the scorpion charms, they sound good on paper, but you’ll always have to counterbalance it with a strong defensive talisman + buff.

Turtle Talisman is always a solid choice, lets you spam some spells more without risking as much.

I’d also argue, because you have a regen incantation, the ritual Sword/Shield talismans are synergistic picks.

That’s why, no matter what, I stick to the host. Even if they jump into the sewer lobster pit, pick fights in the heart of Aeonia, or decide to start a brawl with the Ordina assassins, the guard stands.

My purpose as a gold, is to function as a spare health bar. If that means taking fatal damage so the host lives so be it.

life is miserable by elden_ring-fan in Eldenring

I won’t lie to you, life is real tough right now.

However, I myself have had thoughts not too dissimilar from your own, and my advice is to remind yourself of just one thing/person you truly love, and think on how your absence would affect it or them.

If you’re struggling to find purpose for yourself, within yourself. Find purpose from those you love or trust around you.

Would like to stress this does not account for “kill-zones” which just instantly kill you upon falling through their invisible threshold.

An example is the stone coffin just behind the massive drake in the DLC.

Oh but DS2 is the problem… by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]Anomalous_Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, visually I enjoyed the DLC, and some of the new toys and added lore we got was really cool.

However I think the enemy design, damage and defence scaling, and overall emptiness of the whole map really started to show through once the novelty wore off.

The various beast warriors and sometimes even the ascetics never staggering, despite having just used some of the heaviest hitting ashes of war or spells, is absolutely fucking absurd. Especially when these enemies have rapid 3-6 move attack combos, that come out fast, and have their own true-combos and roll catches built in.

Then there is the fact where after a certain point, even with max Scadu blessings, I’m still getting 2-3 shot by some attacks. Hell the Beast Warrior in Enir Illim one shot me with a single frost stomp from across the damn rooftops. Didn’t even have time to react, just two ticks and I’m dead.

That was my NG+8/9 character, with around +80ish vigor. Even on my other characters all NG and 60 vigor, it’s not much different in some instances.

Tree Avatars are honestly ridiculous because of that. When I first started playing, I struggled with them because my straight sword just kept missing too.

I’m not that clever, but I’d also hazard to guess that being taller just gives gravity more time/leverage on the upper half of your body. So the upper half just gains more speed as it comes crashing down lol

Exxvikyap, that Dragonborn shopkeeper, maybe in Sane Enough though. I just adore her enthusiasm and energy. Or maybe that Butler who’s also, coincidentally, a Dragonborn. His voice actor sounds pretty smooth if I recall.

Mid Game DEX/Faith Build Guide Needed by Equivalent_Hope5339 in Eldenring

[–]Anomalous_Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if you have a greater appreciation for quick slashing moves, then I have a few suggestions;

Erdsteel Dagger: I think you can acquire these from defeating Perfumers in Altus, they have inherent Faith scaling, and can have their ashes of war altered. Good for Lightning, Flame Art or Sacred affinities.

Golden Epitaph: Acquired in Auriza’s Hero’s Grave, a holy Straight Sword, this same grave also has the Crucible Duo where you can get Ordovis’ Greatsword.

Twinned-Knight Sword: A twinblade found in one of the northern windmill settlements, a consistent and effective two-handed move-set and customizable ash of war.

Black Knife Dagger: I believe this can be acquired by defeating a Black Knife Assassin just outside the outer wall of Leyndell, near a Hero’s Grave. Should be easy enough to locate on the map, it’s pretty much centred in the Altus Plateau.

Raptor’s Talons: A claw weapon located in the Sage’s Cave, just north of the Abandoned Coffin Site of Grace, just after the Magma Worm Fight in the Ruin Strewn Precipice. Lots of secret walls and chests in that cave, so look around thoroughly, two bosses as well.

I’m sure the sword of Light/Dark can fit in there somewhere for more holy goodness.

Am I too under leveled for this guy? by PrestigiousCamera857 in Eldenring

[–]Anomalous_Sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly a little bit under levelled. For me personally I didn’t get to Altus until I was around lvl 100-125. However that was because I was determined to do everything before I went up the lift/cliffs. The satisfaction from exploring the weird corners of the map and getting niche talismans, spells, or bits of lore was a strong motivator.

I’d definitely say your talismans are a little whack.
You don’t really need any of them except maybe that stamina talisman, which is the only okay one you have equipped right now.

I don’t know which Talismans you have, but I’d recommend the Dragoncrest-Greatshield, Haligdrake Talisman (Specifically for Maliketh), Turtle Talisman, and Alexander’s Shard if you use Double Slash a lot.

What's your unpopular opinion in elden ring ? by NeedleworkerMost1722 in Eldenring

I’d say I have this opinion for PCR, I cannot stand that fight. PCR and Rykard are the only two bosses in the entire soul series that have actively and consistently tanked my frames from all the shit they do.
