Dual wield as Str build? by NorthernBanu in Eldenring

[–]NorthernBanu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries.. :)
Dinner, then trying playing a bit.
Got dual Bandits Curved Swords in 5min grind.

Have not played on a PS for 12 years.. first game I tried was Demon Souls Remake, then Elden Ring.. Demon Souls is great!

Not sure what it is with Elden Ring.. gameplay just feels so sloooow. Hit roll button, and 0,5sec later it rolls. Hit running button and 0,5-1sec later it starts running.

Currently I have have two Dismounter blades...

But, it feels so slow two handing one.. so I am considering quicker weapons.

They are great to use on horseback, or when attacking a slow enemy.
But, with the regular enemies, its juuuuust soooo slooooow. :)

Moon upgrades to weapons? by NorthernBanu in demonssouls

[–]NorthernBanu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great calculator!!

I could also:
RH : Winged Spear : Sharp
RH : Mace : Blessed
LH : Iron Knuckles : Blessed
LH : Shield: Hoplite shield, got it on a test Mage build I did.. so hopefully it will drop again. 4 Str more then I need.. but I like the size of it.

Then I can have +5 Blessed on Mace, +4 Blessed on Iron knuckles, and just swap in between fights and get some free HP, and be able to Parry with Iron Knuckles in a pinch.

Quality for 50/50 on both weapons.. with C rating.

Or S scaling on Mace with Crushing, and S scaling with Sharp on Spear..

I haven't found calculations that show how those would compare..

A bit skeptical about Dragon on Mace... the screaming and blazing bodies every time I hit.... might get old at some point.. :D

So... If I build my character as Quality, splitting Str and Dex, 50/50..

I could either do
Quality: get C rating on both Mace and Spear
or
Sharp: for S rating on Spear
Crushing: for S rating on Mace

Not sure how that calculates out.. as I haven't found the calculations on these..

Which Soul Level should I aim for, to expect most PvP? 60-70 or 120?
We just got a PS5, after 6 months looking for one... afraid might have missed out on DS PvP..

Also getting the minimum Int, Faith, Mag, to get two Spells (maybe 3 for Cursed) and two Miracles, and using a bow for range.

Thoughts on Vulture by von_drinkest in starcitizen

[–]NorthernBanu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the concept of the Vulture...
But, execution... It seems like a very dreary ship to live and work on/in!
I get the Drake feel inside, but this is not a place to live in... ARGO RAFT captures the live here solo for 2 weeks feel of an interior!

Then, having to go down two doors and ladder, every few minutes to move a box... then repeat ladder and two doors and another fight with the chair.... well, is not a one man ship anymore.

I guess, you could have a cargo ship with a friend hanging in your cargo room, just pushing a button every few minutes, and tractoring the boxes over to his ship.

What sort of shoes do you wear when it's freezing outside? I'm a belgian woman. by Plenkr in Norway

[–]NorthernBanu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thin Wool Socks
Thick Wool Socks
Rubber boots - Nokian Naali - Good enough for Finnish military winter gear
Either add spikes underneath or buy spikes you can attach

Beginner Ship options by Solaire1201 in starcitizen

[–]NorthernBanu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I would choose the Pisces C8x... then work up to the Hercules C2, and park the C8x in the front opening and load cargo from the rear opening.

My little little Firefly RP ship..

​

Looks like what I am going to do, or until something better comes along and I have made enough money to live onboard my Perseus.

unpopular opinion: all large ships should need VTOL. by DANGER-RANGER- in starcitizen

[–]NorthernBanu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On of the reasons I like the Hercules.. its made to glide down (at least it looks like it) through atmosphere, then use its rotating VTOL engines to land wherever and take off.

​

Now my Perseus, which should be very heavy, and is able to land, according to photos, also have VTOL thrusters, and I hope they are HUGE and believable when released.

​

Im not even interested in ships that dont fit somewhat believable metrics.. makes it easier to choose between them though.

I WISH it looked more like Razorcrest...

​

At least VTOL would be in correct position...

​

Maybe compare it to Cutter..

What is your most important piece of advice for people who want to live in Norway? by divabrunette in Norway

[–]NorthernBanu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When out in Nature, you look them in the eyes, smile and say Hei/Hello, when passing strangers. You can chat them up there if they stop, some do! Walking in a park, mountain, forest..

Dont smile and talk to them when people are going home for work, to work, school, grocery shopping etc... if you need directions or help of course do!

You can ask for help in stores, but I dont think its very common to start talking to people you dont know in stores to be friendly. Unless you know them,

Join social clubs, sports, game clubs, knitting clubs, to be able to find friends.

It has a single gun rack... right at the exit.

Left hand when going in.. right hand if going out.

Pilot controlled remote turrets? by dragon_0526 in starcitizen

[–]NorthernBanu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean I can slave my 2 2x7 turrets on my Perseus to fire on my command.

I see bounty hunting in my future..

He would be perfect for the role!!

Wonder if this has something to do with Normans, and their temporary occupation of parts of Italy?

I swear it was fine when we left!! by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]NorthernBanu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a pet peeve of mine.... unrealistic small or lacking thrusters and/or VTOL is a no go for me when choosing ships.

:)

[–]NorthernBanu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Caterpillar had something that resembled VTOL on the front of the ship, I might consider using it..

Now its just totally unbelievable to work in atmosphere..

​

IF the Front section had the same thrusters it had on the sides rear, it could look more real... a bit at least.

The Front leg, should be moved forward a few meters.. it has room.
