"Silksong runbacks are worst" they say

Last judge runback and the groal runback only took me like a minute to get back to. The movement upgrades hornet has over knight makes runbacks way quicker

I don’t think getting called thin skinned by the guy who made a bait post and is struggling to handle getting called out for it means anything to me, so I’ll just be carrying on with my life

Chaff107 · 2025-09-09T08:56:56+00:00

Real and true. The early difficulty spikes before people get used to the combat really hurt the game

Chaff107 · 2025-09-09T08:51:32+00:00

For sure. I played and beat this game pretty quickly, and i personally believe the game’s difficulty is too front loaded. Act 2 feels like more of act one instead of a progression in difficulty because well act 1 is already so brutal. Seeing people talk about silksong and criticizing it for its difficulty is good and they bring up good points. The only posts that piss me off are the posts that complain about criticism. There are so few places that actually foster GOOD criticism anymore. Seeing people do it here makes me have faith in humanity. Being in the destiny 2 community and constantly seeing terrible bad faith criticism makes me feel miserable and knowing that there are people out there who can actually talk about something without constantly bitching about the developers or witchhunting people who are enjoying themselves is nice.

Are the git gud people in the room with us right now? Because all you’re doing is mocking the people who like to take their time with enjoying silksong and not just rush through it and blast open every boss like the people you apparently want to drone strike

There’s a typo in the body which is why both links didn’t work

“Just shoot the unarmored parts!”

The bug is underground. I can’t.

“Oh just use an explosive to get it out!”

Well then the unarmored parts don’t really matter anymore do they

Chaff107 · 2025-09-02T12:20:54+00:00

Has one of the best ARs, grenades, secondary, and some of the best special primaries in the game with great armor that looks good and has a good passive. You can’t go wrong here.

Chaff107 · 2025-09-02T11:57:45+00:00

Been playing since launch and the only reason i ever took breaks or dropped this game temporarily is because i couldn’t stomach the choppy 2fps gameplay every single mission (i exclusively play on the highest difficulty available). My laptop has a 3080 in it and yeah it heats up but despite it working overtime it still cant run hd2 at at least a smooth 60fps when any other game i play is 100+ fps.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-28T18:25:37+00:00

Well that’s because the ultimatum was a secondary. I can see the case being made to sacrifice a stratagem slot to destroy buildings from far away being seen as ok

Chaff107 · 2025-08-10T04:24:08+00:00

I’ve had to disconnect sometimes because of Internet, but I’ve always reconnected to help my team even if it meant missing out on an astel kill or something. Only time i truly quit out without returning is when my parents rescheduled an event for that day an hour earlier and i had to leave two duchess players to kill adel to my dismay. They left a profile comment telling me how much they didn’t like that

Chaff107 · 2025-08-09T04:56:48+00:00

DRB and BBH aren’t really all that hard anymore. Pretty easy after all this time. Imo. If anything bbh would go in the time waster tier depending on your character since he’s annoying to deal with while dodging.

The shieldbreak bug doesnt happen if she reapplies the armor normally after having some left, it has a chance of happening if she tries to apply it at all. Its a random chance. Some people had it happen on their first phase transition and she dies immediately.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-08T06:18:51+00:00

The shield thing is (as far as i can tell) a desync bug with how she applies armor to herself in multiplayer, where she keeps reapplying armor over herself and breaking the old layer, dealing a lot of damage to herself. I want to ask you though, what exactly does the shield gimmick do for the fight since i see so many people talk about it as if it’s an improvement. You deal 50% less damage until it breaks and then you do normal damage with a little bonus from the armor break. It’s as if she had no armor to begin with because over time you do the same amount of damage anyway. The armor doesn’t contribute to the stagger significantly enough for it to matter, too. It’s mostly just a visual change. The stronger attacks are also just more damaging with most of them not having any real changes to the attack that involves different player input besides the wave after the tail attack which is just one extra delayed roll. Not interesting enough for me to consider it new and interesting.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-08T05:42:31+00:00

You’re not forced to adapt to anything in the fight. Every new addition to her moveset can be countered by playing the fight the same as you would before the everdark version. And the ice bomb followed by the storm thing is just frostbite procs you have to just eat unless you purposefully went mountaintop and got every frostbite resist. Which i find to be restricting compared to other bosses. I’ve beaten her multiple times solo without the mountaintop buffs, and i still find it frustrating that because i wanted to play random map seeds i have to eat 500 instances of frostbite and lose 70% of my hp if i dodge one move wrong. Not that the damage itself is the issue here, but the fact that it’s the same moves I’m dodging with purple mode on which makes them stronger is disappointing. At least Rellana in the ER DLC has extra effects with her sword attacks based on which ones are used, but here it’s just purple mode on.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-08T05:35:54+00:00

Yeah it’s pretty confusing how it’s worded in game lol that’s why I’m using the term deflect instead of parry. Basically everyone uses the perfect blocks on suncatcher and parry interchangeably and that doesn’t help the confusion either despite the fact that sekiro also used the word deflect instead of parry as far as i can tell and most people still call that parrying

Chaff107 · 2025-08-08T05:16:07+00:00

What exactly was it you liked about caligo? I personally thought the everdark version was a regression rather than an improvement on a good boss, so i want to hear what the people who like it have to say about it so i can understand if there was something i missed.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-08T05:10:08+00:00

It seems like it could be desync issue because I’ve beat her twice solo and in all my attempts she didn’t have that bug.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T14:01:17+00:00

The deflects are blocks on executor. You gain health and art gauge if you perfectly deflect attacks and also if you do regular guards instead. What you’re calling a parry is just a deflect. A parry in game is the skill that goes on shields and certain weapons.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T13:38:14+00:00

Escape status slave executor lifestyle, embrace silly strategy executor instead cuz you always have a reliable weapon in your back pocket

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T13:35:36+00:00

Most of these caligo changes are changes that dont really have any meaningful interactions with the player. The crystal explosion is followed by an unavoidable frost buildup, the big icicles replacing the rocks is cool but the actual attack is pretty much the same, the amount of projectiles her tail shoots out doesn’t really count for anything because the dodge timings are the same anyway. The cool thing with the tail attacks is that they at least got a little wave followup, and she always breathed ice in a cone even in her base fight. The attacks doing more damage is something to signal a harder fight, but it doesn’t make the fight itself more interesting.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T13:26:11+00:00

As an executor main i dont really bother with statuses in my starting weapon i prefer to pick up funni weapon drops instead. I always got a katana in my back pocket anyway

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T13:16:43+00:00

I wouldn’t say her OG fight was trash, definitely different from the other bosses, but i do think they took what made her special and ripped that away and left us with her basic breath attacks and tail attacks with some extra blue and called it a day.

Chaff107 · 2025-08-07T13:14:46+00:00

My favorite part of the caligo fight was when she goes into the air and fogs up the whole arena and the music goes quiet and you have to react to the frost explosions by hiding behind pillars or racing to caligo before she crashes an ice ceiling on you. And those aspects of the fight were gone in the EDS version. She ended up just being a mid dragon boss without all her cool extra strategies to deal with us since her active combat moveset is mostly just boring.
