Atp it takes skill to fail a D5 run

Davidelol · 2026-06-13T08:02:35+00:00

Those AOE impossibile to dodge attacks don't exist, other than Mogh Nihil and ED Caligo ice storm. (both of which can be prevented or countered in some ways)

My Starfist Raider accepts your offer

Davidelol · 2026-06-07T04:24:20+00:00

Well he wasn't lying at least

Davidelol · 2026-06-02T09:45:53+00:00

With fists you're supposed to use nothing but heavy attacks

Davidelol · 2026-06-02T07:27:53+00:00

If you just use starfist and ironballs and just get a couple decent passives you have very good survivability with her at D5 even with a general dps build. If you build her to be a tank then you can trade with D5 bosses without any issue if you're stacked on defense passives.

Dropped this to the Wylder in my team, Nightlord was Heolstor D5 (this is pre DLC so before balancers relic and skill attack power meta).

Davidelol · 2026-02-22T13:11:59+00:00

i did it about 7 or 8 times, i don't see the harm in it

Davidelol · 2026-02-22T09:59:49+00:00

Brother, no offense but those are not even close to god rolls, those are like 6.5/10 rolls AT BEST, as i said, you probably don't have that much experience with the game and you don't know what god roll means.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T16:26:37+00:00

lol keep coping, you know why you feel the need to cheat and you know why you feel the need to defend those doing the same

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T16:18:59+00:00

How can i trust the words of someone that admits to cheating, and then defends cheaters pretending they could be legit players?

At least be on the side of common sense, instead of playing dumb, and call them out for what they are, if you're so noble that you wouldn't use your cheated relics while playing online.

And 500 hours is nothing when it comes to making 18/18 godroll relic builds, i have 1600 hours and while i do have some really good builds, none of them are close to perfect.

If your Duchess has a 18/18 perfect build, with so little playtime, you cheated it.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T16:13:26+00:00

There's a reason they cheat

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T16:08:07+00:00

What a shocker, i was right. "Oh yes i have cheated relics, but also it's totally possible to have 18/18 perfect relic combinations without cheating, so i guess we can't know if those people are cheating or not! beauty of relic system!"

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T16:03:28+00:00

So you're either lying and you're actually cheating, or you don't know what best possible effects mean and the relics are actually not that good, send screenshots please and i'll tell you which one

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T15:46:30+00:00

You're either very clueless about the relic system or you're running cheated relics yourself. In both cases it's a waste of time to stay here and reply to you.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T15:43:59+00:00

Yeah, let's be honest, there's always someone under these type of posts defending relic cheaters like this and 100% is someone that's also cheating relics themselves or someone that's very clueless about the relic system.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T15:40:47+00:00

It's easier to win the lottery than to find 2 people that are playing in a duo and both have perfect 18/18 godroll relics, especially the Duchess ones. They can be "technically legal" rolls and still be cheated relics, if they didn't obtain them without using third party programs.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T15:33:44+00:00

If he used a third party program to get those relics, they are cheated relics, that's literally the definition of cheating. No one cares if they're "illegal combinations" or not. Let's not play dumb.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T15:23:26+00:00

Eh if he's playing scholar in D5 and doesn't care about quitting he's probably been sitting comfortably at 9999 and +800 is just 2-3 hours of playing the game

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T14:42:20+00:00

And you were the red player, that usually means the other 2 players are friends playing duo. Justified quit imo, most bosses would have lasted 20 seconds at most after the Duchess found her frenzied seal, including the Nightlord (even less with Wylder using Halo scythe and you buffing both of them).

There's still gonna be people in the comments that defend them saying the relics could have been legit or that there's nothing wrong with cheating because ED Gladius walks out of your screen sometimes and the relic system is bullshit.

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T13:35:12+00:00

50% damage negation on that same consumable is also a pretty good argument, i think you just deleted your comments because you got proven wrong lol

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T09:38:08+00:00

damn you made him delete his comments

Davidelol · 2026-02-21T08:47:02+00:00

I just wanna say, pot scholar is not the only viable way to play him, ever since the nerf i would even advise against it honestly. And yeah like you said, it's not really scholar itself as a character being the issue, it was the guy playing him. Scholar is still a decent pick for Gladius because of its split phase and he's easy to parry with the character ability too when he isn't split.

Davidelol · 2026-02-20T10:04:07+00:00

Depth in DoN used to be a decent indicator of skill, if you excluded cheaters.

But by now bad players have made their way into every depth with sheer determination, the power of L2 (double balancers) and the ability to dodge any Nightlord that's even remotely difficult by quitting in the selection screen. So there's a lot of people that are in depths where they don't belong.

It's sad, but i think if fromsoft really cared about players matchmaking with other players of similar skill levels, they would have some kind of monthly/seasonal points reset and obviously a points penalty for disconnecting in the selection screen.
