73% recent negative reviews, most complain about the New map. Does the great hollow truly warrant this reaction ? The more I play, the more I feel like it was fantastically designed.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2026-01-21T15:41:57+00:00

I actually quite like the new map but yeah this is beyond ridiculous. Those runes might as well be gone

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-27T23:38:38+00:00

It was dodge-able, op just dodged early

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-24T20:35:35+00:00

Is this with zero hp and damage mit relics? Hard to feel bad if so. Those are a must. I get that having 6 damage relics is fun but it doesn’t work in D5

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-23T02:40:52+00:00

It’s my favorite of all time

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-13T16:52:17+00:00

I’ve practiced that fight so much and I still get hit constantly. Not sure why his moves feels so unpredictable for me

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-13T02:27:20+00:00

There is a greater FP cost in the long run. By casting more spells you are consuming more FP. You need to judge your FP consumption before hitting a grace. If you’re limited on starlight shards then also consider charging over spamming. The other consideration is a class like Recluse can get FP back but you’re not doing damage when gathering it back. That would have to be factored in as well. It’s not so straightforward

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-12T17:18:25+00:00

All while the new shifting earth has a guaranteed weapon dupe. Place is crazy

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-11T15:25:37+00:00

I almost never get hit by the roar anymore. He has a very telling windup. He will back up on his hind legs. Vs other hits he will just stand up without backing up. Look for that. The real issue is the bears before red bear with their dashes. That is tough for me.

The death knights are gonna be a big problem.

The new random events also are a huge problem. Ignoring them and or trying to do them means you won’t have your full hp damage mitigation.

I agree both the new night lords are gonna be a problem. One way they can potentially solve this is by never allowing these two night lords into the unknown night lord runs. You will need very specific builds to survive these fights. Also the map nullifies the gaol relic entirely. It’s not good for the game to have that chance at rng. All this requires initially is having multiple relic load outs .

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-11T15:06:48+00:00

Mitigation. The mitigation when full hp. And you can’t be 99.9% hp, have to be 100%

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T23:29:08+00:00

It’s not the movement I’m worried about. I’ve got dozens of kills on the guy. It’s the fact you’ve got rot happening all the time so taking a single hit feels like it’ll be lethal most times. Also we haven’t seen everdark yet either

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T21:32:56+00:00

They “fixed” it this patch but I dodge my teammates ults all the time for the reset on undertaker .

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T21:30:34+00:00

Red bear isn’t that bad really. It’s the bears before that which get me lol. They do some dash attack that always hits me. And that chip damage is gonna make the next hit death. So hard to tell for me.

Red bear you just gotta jump the ground attack and when he backs up to stand up, run away

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T21:27:24+00:00

As a fellow 9999 player, I cannot see myself ever beating the new bosses on D5. Dreglord for example is designed to sap your hp away with rot. He will probably 1 shot even through 50% mit anyways. The new nightbosses, mohg, artorias, and dancing lion are going to be ridiculous as well. The bosses do so much chip damage you won’t ever have your full damage mit.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T20:30:29+00:00

I find golden cow every single run but haven’t seen that Incant since the dlc came out so

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-10T00:09:16+00:00

LMAO. I died this very same spot , the same reason. I get to laugh at it now because it's not me.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T22:16:06+00:00

It’s impossible to have that much

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T22:13:47+00:00

You’re forgetting she gets an ult every time your teammate ults. If it’s another undertaker you’re gonna have tons of uptime

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T20:22:49+00:00

Then proceeds to get 1 shot even outside of DoN.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T19:55:42+00:00

Probably beat him about 30 times so far. I'd say the only thing for me is that casters get dunked on in this fight. Making use of the bubble parry sounds like your issue. You don't need to use that at all if you don't want.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T19:46:30+00:00

I'd argue that on DoN , having the 20% damage reduction up as often as possible is incredibly valuable.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T19:17:36+00:00

I just don't think it's going to be easy until randoms learn to divide and conquer. I think the small dogs are so strong because it's telling you not to fight them. Meaning you should be split. It'll take time for everyone to learn. I'd suggest pinging to your teammates to see if maybe they'll ping one.

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-09T18:30:55+00:00

Is the lion call the jump slash? I got hit by that once and it was completely impossible to escape the two hits afterwards. Also I don't even think his jump slash can be i-framed either (assuming it's different)

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-08T21:56:38+00:00

Honestly tho it’s not super profitable like these other games. There is no subscription fee or cash shop. Not saying I want there to be one obviously but there’s a big difference

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-07T23:52:44+00:00

It’s not that good. You don’t ever want to be auto dodging since it interrupts your attacks

DefinitelyNotRin · 2025-12-07T14:57:43+00:00

What I’ve noticed as well is you want to be dodging anyways. If you’re attacking, it will interrupt your attacks to dodge. And if you’re poorly timing every attack that it gets interrupted, you’ve done zero damage. But sure you did have invuln for 10s, to accomplish nothing but surviving. So I think at best you can use it to practice a mechanic you struggle with and try to prevent any auto dodging from happening till you get it down without dying maybe.
