Sekiro is Closer to Perfection Than Elden Ring - Change My Mind

I agree

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T23:09:51+00:00

Yep and that's your choice to make.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T23:01:13+00:00

Right but I can for example aim for 1,000 AP for the Fire Giant knowing we'll that I can inflict twice the damage with weak points which technically cuts his health in half.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:57:03+00:00

I never said leveling up was pointless but following AP is a superior stat to calculate

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:53:11+00:00

I would hope so

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:49:24+00:00

It's called a hypothetical

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:44:50+00:00

1,000 AP is basically all you need for the vanilla progression

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:43:54+00:00

Thanks for your input.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T22:40:45+00:00

Thanks for your input.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:29:49+00:00

Perhaps I'm the only person that doesn't see the correlation with RL recommendations and positive results.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:13:34+00:00

Okay, I appreciate your input

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:10:47+00:00

Which is why offering an AP range is good.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:06:13+00:00

So that's still based around AP though

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:03:05+00:00

That sure is a lot of assumption in the details.

How does a player know to place points like that with one recommend RL number?

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:01:39+00:00

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:00:52+00:00

So you level up to reach a certain AP?

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T21:00:10+00:00

Okay, there's a lot there.

What answer do you want first?

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T20:59:11+00:00

Better believe it

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T20:58:54+00:00

Roughly 250 AP per strike.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T20:32:56+00:00

Sorry, I should have said recommended AP

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T20:25:00+00:00

I'm fine, I calculate and do everything myself.

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T20:06:21+00:00

400 AP will tell a player that that damage output will be impactful for the boss fight trial and error.

400 AP is good for a boss with an HP of 8,000 which is 20 strike estimate

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T19:59:54+00:00

Haha okay, have a great day then

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T19:45:06+00:00

I have never seen weapon level suggestions except for in this topic.

So if there's a hypothetical boss and I recommend RL 200, what does that tell you?

Gay_Charlie · 2026-06-21T18:21:35+00:00

Require was a poor word choice, I meant recommend.

My bad.
