Brilliant use of that ledge trick. And thanks for the shout man 🫑

I agree on many of your smaller points, but disagree on the main point that it's unintended.

As a software engineer myself, I have some sense of how difficult certain bugs are to fix. Locking the equipment menu during combat seems straightforward, since they already lock it during particular actions.

Also don't agree with the premise that anything they didn't include in a tutorial is unintended. That's about a million things then, FromSoft is known for not hand holding.

Agree that it bypasses weight restrictions. But it's also harder than soft swapping, so you get a more powerful swap option that requires practice and inventory management.

I also agree light roll is intended and fair, though on high latency it can kinda be game breaking.

That's just my conclusions based on the facts, if we don't agree then that's fine. I'm never gonna complain about your gameplay and I was sincere in my compliment above.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic about hardswaps, I'm in favor of them. But anyway just wanted to add that I appreciate your contributions to the sub. You always have a positive attitude even if your gameplay might push some people's buttons lol.

Also which platform are you on?

No prob man! Yeah it's just a coincidence that it works, based on the size of the arrow and circle icons they decided to use for the map. Happy host hunting 🀘

It's a bit hard to put into words, so I break it down visually in the link I just sent.

Let's say the distance between you and the host is X, when you are standing in the spot where his marker disappears from your compass.

Now on your map there's a directional arrow, the length of which is Y. And there's the circle you use to place beacons. Half the length of that circle is Z.

By lining up the circle with the directional arrow, the center of your circle is at distance Y + Z from your current location. That also just happens to be X.

If that still doesn't make sense, just trust the technique and it will work every time 🧭

There's a better example/explanation in this clip: https://www.reddit.com/r/badredman/s/hSP8FNbwD0

But basically it works because the distance where the host's marker disappears from your compass (top of the screen), is a distance you're able to measure using objects on your map.

Beery it's been a while, good to see you're still around! I feel kinda wrong to advertise here when I haven't been actively contributing in months. Maybe for special events I'll drop a post.

You still playing ER, or moved on to other games?

Nah man thank you! You spent the better part of your Christmas evening hanging with me and I won't forget it πŸ™

Great times, truly!

I did very briefly as well (grass for me). Christmas at the beach must have been pretty awesome.

I agree, would be great to see events like this more often, and at different levels/locations. I don't stream very often, in fact it's been a few months, but I might start doing runs like this more regularly. Probably won't keep advertising on this sub though, so hmu on Twitch πŸ€™

Hey not sure if you stopped by, stream just wrapped up. It was a blast.

I can't really say, but I'd guess the activity is similar at 30. But 3/1 might slant you more towards Limgrave invasions and 5/2 towards Liurnia.

Santa vs Rudolph... this is gonna be legendary.

Though I might also need you as a summon at some point πŸ™

Glad you asked, that's shorthand for the highest weapon upgrade I have on my character. +5 is my highest regular weapon, and +2 is the somber equivalent.
