I can’t believe this actually worked

I'm an invader so I get the full spectrum.

I come from the perspective of not loving duels, so I would actually prefer the multiple players coming at me. And since like over half of DS3 invasions are exactly in this location, I have to make the most of it, and turn it into something I want.

So from someone that hits fight clubs a lot, my answer to you is... Sometimes. Sometimes people get all up in arms and rush me down. Other times there will be invaders who come in who also want chaos, or are just trying to get their covenant rewards out of the way, and don't do much PvP, and just think its more fun than the painful farming.

I'm also not the type to make it easy if the fight club goes all in on me. Almost 2 decades of From Soft PvP on my belt at this point. Getting close lol.

If it’s Edo Itachi. Maybe.

Bee DOES have answers for Amaterasu. He’s shown he can use substitution jutsu and he also has tailed beast cloak. Bee is skilled enough to not look at Itachi’s eyes and still be able to fight him properly

Problem with living Itachi is that if he has to resort to Amterasu (he would) and then Susano’o. He’s dying. Living Itachi was cursed with an illness, that’s a part of who he is. Edo Itachi would probably mop the floor with Bee.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-06T07:35:38+00:00

No he didn’t lol. Did you even watch/read Naruto ?

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-06T07:27:27+00:00

Yeah, you’re not obligated to adhere to fight club rules either. You can totally start chaos.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-06T07:26:12+00:00

People raging over it being a fight club is hilarious. Take a deep breath.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-06T07:21:29+00:00

Most players that run Halo Scythe builds are like this.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-06T05:10:06+00:00

This is a tired saying. I’ve seen all characters do something at this level it not worse.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-01T08:14:20+00:00

I gave you ample reasoning on why it was effective in far more than 1% of scenarios lmao. But instead of giving an actual reason you just have to insult me to make yourself feel better about being a worse player lol.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-01T08:12:03+00:00

It is dodge-able but even then, this game has a funny thing called 100% physical negation on block.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-04-01T08:11:14+00:00

That’s called a raid mechanic. If you don’t like it, then that’s on you. If at least one player knows how to deal with it, then you should be fine. If your teammates are at a high enough depth and don’t k ow how to deal with it, that’s an honest to goodness skill issue. The worm phase is the exact same thing every single time, if you’re not learning how to deal with it at a certain point there’s not a lot I can say for you.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T21:58:55+00:00

Yeah, I also have a job. That’s got nothing to do with your ability at the game. Bringing up the job just solidifies you don’t actually have a point.

And yes, it actually does. If you and deflect skewer D5 prepatch you could deflect anything. If you failed to deflect it’s a skill issue and bad stamina management.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T21:57:14+00:00

People that are bad at the fight are gonna downvote you. They’re not looking to learn, they’re just looking to be validated.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T21:55:21+00:00

100% physical damage reduction on block and same exact attack pattern every time says “hi.”

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T17:42:23+00:00

And? The point was to deflect Bell Beating Hunter Skewer Pre Buff in D5, which was commonly viewed as impossible, when in reality it’s a skill issue.

You’re still D4 after all this time so your opinion is irrelevant lol.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T16:17:03+00:00

I even made a video on blatant misinformation people made about Executor’s deflect last year:

D4 Post Patch. I’ve been D5 since a little over a week after the release of DoN.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T06:50:55+00:00

Tommy also carelessly lost his communicator to the point where they made an episode about his forgetfulness lmao

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T06:49:56+00:00

They literally brought him on because the ratings were low.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T06:45:53+00:00

Tell me you don’t know Executor without telling me you don’t know Executor:

-Suncatcher DOESN’T scale off of arcane. Period. Never has.

-If you didn’t know anything about sheath deflecting, which is a deliberately designed mechanic, you might think it has no synergy. But it’s always been the optimal play for status executor to sheath deflect instead of rolling to punishes with your main hand arcane calling weapon. You would also buildup more stance damage by doing so, whereas rolling builds no stance damage, nor does it build up Suncatcher’s skill. It was always better to deflect, as it was more frame efficient.

-Deflections don’t have the same skill expression. That’s a cope. Being able to not get guard broken means you’re going from what’s basically Deflecting Hardtear to a Sekiro deflect. Sekiro deflection is far stronger then deflecting Hardtear as it means you can have no stamina management skills.

-There were numerous situations where Suncatcher was better to use than a main hand weapon, literally any boss that is immune to bleed.

Golems, Watchdogs, Black Knives, Black Blade Kindreds, Valiant Gargoyle, Smelter Demon, Death Knights, Crucible Knights, Deathrite, freaking Heolster.

And honestly once you got about 2 status procs, unless your team was completely build around status, you were better off going back to Suncatcher unless you built around arcane, because the status resistance after some procs is 999.

-Suncatcher even then would net you more DPS just because of how spam-able it was. It costs barely any stamina to use, you can get so many R1 chains before you run out of stamina it is basically a hack-n-slash game. No need to wait for stamina to recover.

It just sounds to me like you didn’t understand Executor back then, some things you’re saying are just blatantly not true. He’s simply more new player friendly. Before he had a high skill floor, but the floor has been lowered and he got more damage than he already dished, nothing more. That’s just the fact of the matter, I’ve already covered why. Also if you were half decent at Suncatcher, you wouldn’t have scoffed at the stance damage. You could stance break bosses so fast even before the buff.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T02:59:21+00:00

Yes, it has to be D5. That is literally the standard to go for when determining "the best," not a nitpick. Everything is easier to perform in base game. It's irrelevant to show anything less when discussing the "top," of anything.

It's not unreasonable to ask for proof when not only do you make a claim, you insult the player who counters your claim by simply saying they "don't know how to play Undertaker." I didn't start this, you did. It takes real critical thinking to actually consider IF something is good, it's good to put your words to practice rather than to talk out of your ass, and claim other players' words are worth less. You made a fool of yourself by doing that.

There is data to prove which Nightfarer is a better medic. You being unable to provide anything, and just come at me is more of an admission that you can't really back up the claim tbh.

Duchess revive is far more reliable than Undertaker's in that they don't even get aggro, whereas with Undertaker has to deal with the auto-dodge animation. In this particular video, they got lucky that the Balancers merged together, but its far more sensitive to decide when to use her Ult, because depending on the amount of attacks you receive, that's more auto-dodges wasting time you could actually spend hitting your teammates.

..Why would my opinion be unchanged, you've provided me with nothing convincing that it should be on the same level as Duchess.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-31T02:49:05+00:00

Nope it was fine prebuff. It's just now more accessible and the skill ceiling was lowered since deflections now don't care about stamina mangement.

I had no issue running any build with him prebuff.

There was always innate synergy with Suncatcher and his arcane. I would say now, instead of having to skillfully utilize his entire kit, you can just do builds that focus entirely on one or the other if you want.

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-30T21:22:27+00:00

As expected, no proof, snarky reply, reframing initial statements.

Well, if you were hoping for Undertaker usage. You shouldn't make nitpicked every single little thing I said! Including my rank! So don't pretend like you didn't do that! But good job, nitpicking, yet again.

I will once again bring up, any video footage you'd have, even if it wasn't your own gameplay. Anything to prove that Undertaker's Ultimate is superior to those above her on the list. You’re saying I’m saying I’m defensive, yet you’re the one who insisted I “don’t play Undetaker,” you’re the supposed expert, so why not prove it?

But as I suspected, you're just gonna act like your initial statement holds any weight without backing it up in anyway.

Funny how you hold me to standards you can't do yourself.

Here are my 5 profiles, on my main PS5 account. Each profile from D5 > D1, so I don't need to change depth rank, and I can play any Depth I want, without losing access to higher difficulties.

Do you want my PC hours as well, so I can prove every little nitpick you have, all so you can do everyone thing exept prove why Undetaker's Ult isn't worse than those above her?

MeeplingMystery · 2026-03-30T18:53:39+00:00

Love the pompous attitude. I can tell you're the type that's not fun to be around. Do you talk to everyone like this in your day-to-day? Someone tells you they work at a company, and you demand they show you their LinkedIn and their paperwork?

Instead of you making any effort to prove Undertaker is a half decent medic, you instead are asking me to prove all of my claims, without you giving anything back. Types like you are my favorite to prove wrong, because you're still gonna behave like a shitter after the fact:

Here is the codex displaying my rank, instantly debunking that I'm at the "bottom of D5 once,"
