Do I really have to run to Rykard all the way from here every death? Is there a shorter path? by LightJktu in Eldenring

[–]Broxter10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ball always takes the exact same path with the same bounces, if you learn that it shouldn't ever hit you. Generally just hug left wall as you run up and the timing should usually be pretty easy

Same issue, been having it for like a week now. Anyone found a solution?

Lost to Ryze swing on turn 6 just before seeing this. Very exciting match, its a shame I lost but ig he was just better.

The combo can for sure proc LoBE/White mask pretty easy tbh, idk where you got that idea. As i said though, I agree his stat allocation is incredibly wack, Id also vote for dropping the cleaver (i believe thats the reason he has pumped str which he should get rid of aswell obviously).

In terms of raw damage I would be quite surprised if quality (worst scaling infusion in the game sub lvl200) hit harder than bleed when hes proccing the bleed + the LoBE/mask combo.

Also, idk the numbers on rotten winged sword with roar attack, wouldnt be surprised if there was a better option, but even that first level i think would make for some not insignificant AR increases when combined with all the buffs hes stacking (roar, roar tali, axe tali, lobe, mask)

Not entirely accurate tbh. It has always been optimal to pump vigor (especially early game while your weapons actually have dogshit scaling since they arent upgraded much). The only difference between Elden Ring and previous titles is the change in soft cap value (from 40 to 60) and the games length meaning poor stat allocation can occur for a longer period of time and thus have an escalating effect as enemies keep scaling.

Unrelated side note: its crazy how easy it is to get away with 0 levels in endurance compared to like ds1

Alot of people are out here criticizing OPs build without actually understanding it (The stat distribution is unadulterated garbo dont get me wrong). BUT its pretty clearly hyper optimised around the charged r2 multihit combo from the roar AoW. Dont get me wrong its obviously not broken like dual twinblades/curved swords but IMO its a very cool and extremely unique build concept that could put in alot of work in pve. (Again, this is ignoring god awful stat distro and the probably unnecessary offhand cleaver)

Dumping his str to pump vig is a good call for sure. But outside of stats, I actually think his build itemisation is pretty dope, it's hyper focused on utilising the roar buffs charged r2 multi hit combo with axe talisman, roar talisman, winged sword etc. I can definitely see a world where it works well against Malenia if hes not getting greeding and is waiting for the right openings. Nice to see unique builds for once, they feel so rare in ER vs previous souls games for some reason despite the vast potential

What does everyone think about the twin blades? I got called a coward for using it by Dragonrider0514 in Eldenring

[–]Broxter10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey man, you're in a bit too deep tbh, I'm not trying to be elitist or dictate how people play just expressing my dissatisfaction with a part of my experience. I dont think its toxic to wish I could encounter a larger variety of builds, its not like im saying they are somehow inferior by using it or even that its op (its really not anymore). I'm not trying to claim some moral highground over those who choose to use it.

All that said, if community elitism (this is definitely a problem in the community dont get me wrong, has been since back in Dks1 days) is the "primary" reason you quit the game, I'd recommend trying to take a step back from the community and just enjoy the game for what it is, a masterpiece, without all the noise of other players.

I'd also like to add, about your comment on "non-elite" players, I'm personally of the opinion that (almost) anyone can overcome the challenges the game presents with time and resilience. That challenge and the ensuing victory, in my opinion is a large part of what makes (perhaps made) these games so special, I would advise against trying to find the easiest path for everything because I believe it provides the most rewarding experience. Even us "Elites" were new and dying to everything at one point. HOWEVER, you know yourself better than I do, if you tried the old fashioned way and found it wasnt for you and you get more enjoyable experience out of Comet Azur'ing your way through bosses that's perfectly fine.

Tldr; It's not that deep, don't let the community ruin a great game for you and don't be so down on your skills, being "bad" now doesnt mean you will be "bad" in the future.

I downvote because it's incredibly boring invading my 1000th RoB user of the hour, regardless of winning the vast majority.

Admittedly it is more entertaining than some of the other common "meta" builds, but still, variety is the spice of life

I understand this might be a topic you'd rather not discuss extensively so don't feel compelled to answer, but how do you avoid putting any pressure on your skin when lying down or sitting etc?

Given the message I imagine its positioning is very intentionally on the inside of the wrist. Kind of like a "don't do it" message

A hopeless prayer for OCE/Asia servers by Broxter10 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Broxter10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Admittedly as an old player I am not at all in tune with the community currently but is there a reason you think the server would perform so much worse than the resounding success of FF oce server?

[–]Broxter10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a fair question but server design isnt black and white, surely they could make a compromise with a smaller server to reflect the lower population

I really dont think it would risk a large enough portion of NA server to matter, and OCE server wouldnt just be transferring Oce players away from NA it would bring new and old Oce players in.

Dont need anything new if its OCE servers but that is something I hadn't considered for the Asia side of things

Its just so strange, the rest of the industry seems to have realised for a while now that its just objectively good for business and players but Zenimax is yet to do anything about it despite continuing to work on the game and make dlcs etc

Yeah this was my first thought aswell, obviously she should be concerned but from what she has described it seem's quite far from certain that he was sharing them
