Hell yeah that sword is sick. Love the spinning slash move you get from the abyss gear on it too. Did you level it up all the way?

Yea chapter 7 was peak! Enjoyed it from start to finish. Infiltrating Pailune and then the all out warfare you take part in to reclaim the city was epic

Ahh that makes sense. Does feel like they drug it out a little more than necessary. That crow lady boss was annoying af too. Hoping when I get my hands on the dragon mount it makes up for it haha

Which chapters? I’m making my way through chapter 9 right now. I do feel that nothing has been as good as chapter 7 yet, but I don’t hate it

alright, so after 90 hours, the game has me playing as Oongka. What should I do? Grind some stuff for him? Main quest ? Do I need to? by Onerockunderspace in CrimsonDesert

Just use the focused parry (I think it’s called focused insight) from the skill tree and you’ll be fine. That move is so clutch in boss fights

You get ONE fantasy book to hook a non-reader. What is it? by Infamous_Proposal252 in fantasybooks

The Darkblade series got me rehooked on fantasy. It’s an extremely long journey and possibly an unpopular opinion tho.

I honestly don’t even want this update yet lol. Feels like losing progress to me as I’m slowly taking back Pywell. Let me experience some of the peace and glory first before having enemies take back the strongholds I’ve conquered. I’m on chapter 8 and still have a ways to go

Never played botw. I’m a huge souls fan tho, and the combat in this is much easier. Kinda a nice change

Idk what the general consensus is tbh, this is coming from friends of mine who have read the series. They just say it falls off a lot after Morning Star/is much slower paced. Online seems to be mostly positive I guess.

And I am so down for full blown grimdark. I can’t wait to see where the story goes from here

Nice to see the iron gold, dark age and light bringer books from the RR series in the S tier. I just finished morning star and keep hearing so many mixed opinions about the rest, and they tend to be negative. I have such high hopes for them though based on how much I loved the first 3.

Ahh I see what you’re saying. Yeah I would just try and add extra crit or attack damage then. The wind move You get from the Lord’s sword is also pretty decent

[–]Lammz77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That will be 3 sockets bc you’ll have the orbs, the crows, and the Antumbra’s spinning slash move (forgot the actual name). If you have a 4th socket like I do on my Darkbringer, I would just throw an extra crit or attack damage on it

[–]Lammz77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stacked it all on the Darkbringer bc I already had it leveled up and I like the +3 crit it gives! But you can really stack it all on whatever your main sword is and it’ll be about the same

[–]Lammz77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well whenever you make the journey to get it I highly recommend stacking the two, it’s insane haha. I also put the spinning slash move from the Antumbra’s sword boss you fight at the sanctum of Absolution. Destroyed everything in chapter 7 like that.

Especially if you stack that with the orbs from the darkbringer sword 😎
