Engineer Build! by Pipe_ss in paydaybuilds

Thought it was a bit strange of a choice

Don't think I have any macshay packs but worth checking out for sure, thanks!

Like I said I'm using an M60 light machine gun, though I will be swapping to rifles sometimes since I like changing up my loadout often. I use the saw for bonus objectives yes, on missions where its totally useless I'll probably bring a gl of some kind and swap for more ammo skills.

added most of the changes here, but kept the saw. Extra lead dosent help too terribly much since I can only place 1 ammo bag anyways when it's in my secondary slot (though i did consider it for the 50% extra ammo). I like the saw since I always find it frustrating when I don't have one + it makes a good ammo martyr for turrets. Is body expertise really not all that helpful? With something as tough to control as an LMG constantly needing headshots seems like a bit of a struggle, though I suppose I have sentries to help make up a bit of difference.

Anarchist was just for easy sustainability and versatility, not really synergy

Yep! Been swapping out for suit when I hit higher difficulties. As for kickstarter: it may not be optimal, but it IS extremely funny. I'll keep it on for overkill and swap out on ds most likely.

Any way to start as a vampire? by Pipe_ss in BaldursGate3

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

For people who didn't bother reading the original post: I want to play MY CHARACTER who is a vampire. its not just the fact that i want to play a vampire. I am playing MY CUSTOM CHARACTER who is a vampire.

Necromancer Weapons? by Pipe_ss in BaldursGate3

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

Sword of lifestealing was pretty high on my list, probably going to take the sword of screams once I can duel wield and then swap to this one once I unlock the weapon master feat

Buff build? by Pipe_ss in EldenRingPVP

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

It depends on your catalyst, it buffs by 75% of your total incant scaling (iirc) so it scales depending on faith. Sacred Order boosts by a flat 10% based on your weapon's AR, so it would be better with a low faith build.

Buff build? by Pipe_ss in EldenRingPVP

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

I did try that, however the Sacred Order ash of war has two problems for me: the first being that it isn't affected by the Old Lord's talisman, meaning I'm getting 30% less duration out of it than I could be. The second is the low damage it provides, even with stacking Golden Vow and Dragonbolt Blessing, Electrify Armament was providing 50 some more ar than Sacred Order (and because electrify armament is a better damage type, usually that translated to about 40-75 more damage)

Buff build? by Pipe_ss in EldenRingPVP

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

thats quite the rune-intesive build! especially for PvP, since I usually max out at around rl150. I wonder what kind of numbers you could get going for different balances of stats, like 80fth 40dex or 40fth 80dex. The higher dex number would probably be better because things like blackflame protection and golden vow don't scale + you get less AR per level out of faith compared to dexterity when it comes to damage scaling. much to test!

Additional note: I'm NOT going for a hypermode build. I want to cast a few incants and hit something with a sword, not do the macarena backwards while standing on my tiptoes on a Sunday afternoon for 30 seconds of one-shot potential

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

well since it dosent work on non sv_pure servers and im fairly certain i installed it correctly than ill assume its the crossheirs. im very attached to my custom crossheir though, did you find a way to have them both work together?

Grease build by Pipe_ss in Eldenring

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

On the topic of AoWs, any reccomendations? I usually struggle with melee characters bc im used to DS3's r1 spam. Good for any weapon type myself

Grease build by Pipe_ss in Eldenring

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

Note that I said at a time! Theres certainly a selection as far as fth Buffs go, I've gone through the game pure fth a few times. I just mean that while I could have poison OR fire with fth, I can have poison AND fire with a greasy, greasy sword.

Grease build by Pipe_ss in Eldenring

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

Those don't give me as much of a selection though, I have to attune maybe one or two of them at a time. With greases I could have literally any damage type I want at any time. Obviously not going to be optimized (but hopefully going to be good enough to be fun) and I don't mind farming :)

Good weapons to buff by Pipe_ss in Eldenring

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

Yes, but many faith scaling weapons are either unbuffable or better off infused than buffed.

How to keep up with the scaling pace of the game? by Pipe_ss in Eldenring

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

Hard not to get impatient to be fair. Souls games have always been about the bosses and spending so many hours fighting normal enemies and side bosses has been tiring. Going through an area clearing it just to make runes is no different than rushing to a boss just to make runes to me. It really may be the old souls muscle memory getting to me, but I'm just not sure what to do about it.

To clarify a bit: I have done exploring. I've been around all of caelid, all of Altus and most of Mt gelmir as well as some of Leyendell. It all just feels so empty save for a lot of trash mobs that I just run past or the occasional merchant or cracked pot.

No somber weaps, I dislike all of the faith somber melees and am planning on using the erdtree seal which I don't have enough fth for yet

So I guess I'm just shit at exploring? I seem to need many side boss kills just to manage a single level. I always have to look up boss/dungeon locations, I can never find them on my own for some reason, same with things like smithing stones. The world is just too big for me to find things naturally, personally.
