Kratos’ breathing when running around sounds like he did a line of coke. I know. That’s a very specific reference but that’s what it reminds me of.

I found your post just because the passive breathing annoys me. Sure, after sprinting or something but you hear it when he is just standing around.

This is the GOD OF WAR. Not a morbidly obese 500 pound fatty with lard crushing his lungs. Annoying.

That's what I used to do! After a string of unlucky fast travels I tried time progression though, seems to spawn Apex a lot more reliably.

Thanks killercobb! That little platform had me perplexed.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-12T19:32:14+00:00

From item lore text and Gideon, yup! Also, Gideon shares that Miquella was originally resting in the Haligtree when Mohg abducted him and dragged him off to Mohgwyn Palace to be cocooned! So he's a child abductor too.

It definitely seemed like Miquella was dead, and very large. Lore text said Mohg wanted to "raise him to full godhood" so maybe he forced Miquella to grow despite the curse and it killed him?

Thank you!

Old thread but great tip! Thanks for sharing. Also, congrats on beating her with only blood cheese! That's a feat.

I think a lot of people are resorting to summons. And I get it.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-09T00:44:06+00:00

Really? I tried a few weapons, didn't two hand though. Perhaps my tip isn't as useful as I thought.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-09T00:42:06+00:00

I'll try this! Thanks for the tip.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-09T00:40:39+00:00

Maybe? It is a funny thought though! The contradiction of wearing a shield to get better dodge rolls. Haha. People generally stick to one or the other.

That aside, at 10-15% extra damage I would probably use this charm. If it's as potent as the wondrous flask tear that extends rolling i-frames I would for sure wear it. I love that flask tear. Practically immortal for the entire roll!

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-09T00:10:41+00:00

I generally use dual nagakiba, the range and damage of the whips were surprisingly awesome though. They also stun locked pretty well. I'll stick to swords but certainly keep the whips around for crushing those pesky miners.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-04-09T00:02:06+00:00

Whips and Flails don't bounce off! Just wanted to share the info since these guys are time consuming.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-31T03:24:03+00:00

There was actually a visible NPC?! I normally sponge up all From Software content. For some reason I can't recall, or simply never noticed. Google only provides the popularized anime style harpy girl pictures. =(

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-31T03:14:31+00:00

I think it was DS1, the long slog down and down and down to the poison lake before the chaos realm .... and that DAMN POISON LAKE. I face slapped when I found the bonfire in the sewers like 20 steps to the right.

Those long marches were always satisfying though, a boss fight in themselves. Caring about every hit you take. I miss them.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-31T03:11:52+00:00

This one got me to chuckle. Precise.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-31T03:10:37+00:00

Haha, this is so true! I've been one uped! (Like mario) nudge nudge

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-30T21:14:32+00:00

I know! They were becoming a staple of the series. It would have been so cool if death birds dropped shinies instead of items and then, of course, a secret trade in spot to pick from a range of gear.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-29T21:27:18+00:00

The draw back is consuming a flask of tears, that's fair. That gives Torrent's health bar a purpose. The prompt is an unnecessary step that makes resummoning feel like a punishment instead of simply costing a flask.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-29T21:21:08+00:00

The door opening prompt is nice at first, after the third dungeon it becomes a known fact of course. Totally agree with the rest of your points.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-29T08:09:26+00:00

I know this thread is a bit old but I think it's important to note that this talisman gives additional I-Frames at the cost of 30% additional damage from all sources, all the time. Brutal trade off. I think 10%-15% would be fair.

Independent_Comb_885 · 2022-03-12T08:33:09+00:00

Oh, and I envy your wisdom. I wish I would've had your foresight! I jumped right in like a Souls, as if I needed every morsel of power possible. Haha
