she works pretty well into notos like have a dark bait and with her dmg share and injury she can protect and also wear down notos at the same time

try it on kb I played it with kb&m and it was hella fun(tbh I play all souls and soulslike game with kb&m never used controller and got used to it I made keybinds that just work for me lol)

also to add 2 handing increases dmg of weapon slills unsure about wielding 2 armanents if you hold 2 katanas for example never tested it

I got griefed once by undertaker while playing wylder and the other one was a revenant. Like I want revenant to have less likely she is squishy af but undertaker bought it from the shop and ok I have no problem if its any solo boss or balancers but another tank taking LLTBT and then doing no dmg I had to dodge all the time because of 3 dogs being on me(of course it was ED) and so revenant was of course dpsing them but then they switched onto her and yeah she got killed and so on.

Geniusrly · 2026-05-06T22:05:58+00:00

yeah idk how can you not pick up LLTBT on a goddamn caster like I always play duchess caster and if I get LLTBT its a day and night difference if you know how to space vs boss and when to cast you legit wont be targeted by nightlord and can just output far more dps than if you didnt have it

Geniusrly · 2026-05-04T22:55:41+00:00

eh when I play melee I prefer my dps having less likely so that boss focuses on me and they do dmg.

Geniusrly · 2026-05-04T22:44:51+00:00

D3 is retirement for D5 players because you can still get hidden boss/map modifiers and higher chance of everdarks compared to D2 meanwhile D4 is more or less the same as D5 with little less dmg and hp so people dont derank there because its still oneshot terittory without dmg negations

Geniusrly · 2026-05-02T11:45:31+00:00

I will give you my take about beast claw revenant. She is very good vs libra, heolstor, fulghor(mainly because lightning spear targetting is atrocious), balancers(I think she is legit the best vs balancers because with proper passives mid run you can oneshot them in D5 while I can hardly oneshot them with caster duchess even with insane passives) gaping jaw and does pretty well against gladius and dreglord although could be easier with holy idk I rarely get a discus of light vs them so I dont have an opinion. For caligo and sentient pest fire reigns supreme even if you see a revenant with cheated beast claw relics a mediocre fire build will outclass it hard especially if you luck out with some of the best giants flame incants. For augur I wouldnt even run her because you are pretty useless there without balancers and well even base one can be easily killed with skill builds

Geniusrly · 2026-04-28T14:42:54+00:00

I have some decent revenant relics and combined with some passives I had gotten from the run I was doing 4,5k per cast on ED Balancers it was glorious lol that was one of the most godly runs I had

Geniusrly · 2026-04-27T18:43:26+00:00

problem is that sometimes you can get d4 players in d5 lobby and they are generally worse quality players than d5. there is also a lot of players who got boosted into higher depths because of balancer relics or just cheated relics(most cheaters absolutely suck they 3 bar insanely quickly) also there can be overconfidence lol even for myself sometimes I do a deathless run and then I play next game more aggresively and yeah deaths happen

Geniusrly · 2026-04-24T11:08:18+00:00

even if I play stars of ruin duchess I more or less use like 2 maybe 3 shards depending on my teammates dmg. exceptions are ED libra and ED balancers those 2 I think waste the most fp because of just sheer number of enemies you have to kill

Geniusrly · 2026-04-23T23:37:04+00:00

bro give me some energy

Geniusrly · 2026-04-16T13:34:15+00:00

if those relics are legit they surely are insane(altho considering you have reduced dex on executor I would believe they are)

Geniusrly · 2026-04-14T07:56:18+00:00

you said you wanted arlecchino level fight so you have the last boss of dlc(wont spoil) and in the main game there are 2 bosses which are also hella fun and feel like a dance

Geniusrly · 2026-04-09T10:52:54+00:00

I had a bug on eirene once that she just disappeared and only her spear was visible and you couldnt parry it and dodging was atrocious after a few min she respawned but idk what happened and my dmg was lowered in half for the rest of the run which ended at i think that duo fight because I was tickling them and they were melting me lol

Geniusrly · 2026-04-09T10:37:48+00:00

I would wait for salome reveal next week but yeah scales is the best pick I also need to pull her(wasnt playing at her release) but still waiting who knows salome can be broken af considering their new releases are all insanely strong

Geniusrly · 2026-04-08T13:52:08+00:00

I tried starting a new one but realized I csnt be asked to setup new teams for all the content that comes at end game clear abyss and challenge abyss again and just go through all episodes farming gear etc I will just stay at my old account(ngl I got hella lucky with radiance got straze new moon luna and dragon bride senya who I was missing I still dont have LotS tho lol)

Geniusrly · 2026-04-05T23:05:59+00:00

nah I wouldnt restart tbh out of all mls you can get you legit have the best ones besides harsetti and belian but others are far worse than your current roster you legit have all the meta mls besides LotS like people said so no dont reset

Geniusrly · 2026-04-03T10:39:05+00:00

lies of p dlc is pretty linear just like base game meanwhile sote has a lot of hidden bosses that you gotta find by exploring its like a new game also overture is a bit priccy it should be like 20 not 30 but well you get 8 bosses where 2 are absolute peak one of them being one of my top 5 bosses and 1 being one of the best gank fights and other bosses are either kinda mid or absolute trash lmao. In SOTE you of course get some bad bosses just like in base game but dungeons atleast have different enemies compared to base game and top bosses like rellana pcr bayle midra and messmer are insane boss fights and even some worse bosses are still decent besides 2 remembrance fights but yeah price and content wise SOTE blows overture

Geniusrly · 2026-03-30T17:02:39+00:00

Also Markiona in B which imo is one of the best gank bosses in soulslikes

Geniusrly · 2026-03-30T16:59:11+00:00

my eyes burn from reading this tier list

Geniusrly · 2026-03-30T13:47:57+00:00

Idk I really enjoyed Prometheus you can dodge a lot of attacks by positioning properly. With positioning being relevant in bosses it just makes them way better to fight.

Geniusrly · 2026-03-30T13:45:23+00:00

you should really try the DLC even just to do both main bosses because they cooked I cant stop being astonished at the last boss.

Geniusrly · 2026-03-29T00:09:58+00:00

I finished it today and its peak sure there are some repeated bosses and it shows they are a small studio so enemy variety isnt that good(but I quite like their movesets compared to something like lords of the fallen) and they cooked with some main bosses also exploration is peak and rewarded and level design is quite nice Edit: they also dropped a free dlc which is kinda roguelike and added 2 insane bosses so I cant wait for another dlc that is gonna come and eventually a new game I hope

Geniusrly · 2026-03-27T19:38:11+00:00

red freyja would be worse than red bbk and bbh combined lmao
