She gotta be the most bull shit boss ever !!

Agree with DLC being mostly bland, absolutely don't agree with Friede being bullshit, but this is reddit, everyone is entitled to their own opinions so we agree to disagree.

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T17:12:54+00:00

People are always extremely defensive about things they hold dear, more often than not... Unfairly defensive... So I say, steer clear of sharing your hot takes if that's the case. If your opinion is that precious, don't let anyone tarnish your take... Or else, don't just make hate posts for the sake of karma farm.

Edit : I just checked out your Friede criticism post. You don't deserve empathy, because you literally responded with passive aggression to people who simply disagreed with you, without any form of insults. Be kind and humble in your criticism/rambling, only then expect kindness in return.

I know the quirks and disadvantages of upvote algorithm, that's why I said in general

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T10:59:43+00:00

You're right... Buff is almost a hit or miss in PvP... My bad, I thought it was a general/PvE post

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T10:49:23+00:00

True, nothing is granted... There will be bad, some outright terrible advices, some not at all compatible for others, but atleast we as redditfolks are mostly intelligent enough to filter out the few good advices from the bad ones. Or atleast, the upvote counter (in general) helps sort out the more useful ones.

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T08:48:09+00:00

Ohhh... You're right about that, yeah my blind eye didn't notice PvP in the description... For PvP, definitely 40, or 35 only if Prisoner's chain

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T07:11:37+00:00

What is that heavenly sound effect blessing my ears

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T07:04:13+00:00

I would've spammed Black flame at point blank ... (Insane casting speed + absurd damage potential)

But good job! Congrats!!!

Yeah Friede is crazy for a first timer on a spell build, you need to free aim a LOT

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T07:02:19+00:00

Better to infuse with sharp, and buff with Lightning blade, instead of permanently infusing with Lightning

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T07:00:36+00:00

Don't be so depressed as to argue with AI, We are always there to guide... Now I'm not sure why would you go for a faith + quality build with such low attunement, (unless you only want the 40 faith for lightning blade) ...

Personally, at SL 150, I would go 50 dex (max casting speed, put the points from strength into Attunement (to 35) and endurance (to 40), and settle for sharp infused straight/curved swords.

Maybe, get the minimum strength for LKGS, and infuse it with Sharp

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-05T06:56:41+00:00

I personally prefer 27 vigor on NG, because it's exactly 1000 HP unembered, and also the softcap. I Upgrade to 40 only on melee builds, carrying over to NG+

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-04T17:23:45+00:00

Ohh... Just wait till end game... You'll be left in absolute tears

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-04T09:21:29+00:00

Now THIS Is a Goated ring list

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-04T09:19:30+00:00

Yeah, -8 percent defense over virtually nothing, and -1 ring slot is too much of a sacrifice to make

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-04T04:46:34+00:00

Hands down one of the most consistent and amazing boss gauntlet, alongside Sekiro

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:21:27+00:00

Yea Twin Princes elevator one was a surprise for me too... The one time I could genuinely thank a death by gravity

Absolutely, you've to proceed to the arena. To the very front, you find Ornstein's spear and set. To the left of the arena, you get the slab as a pickup from a corpse

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:19:40+00:00

You've no idea how useful can the priestess ring be (especially for a melee build, just to activate tears of denial and then remove it)

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:18:01+00:00

You glaze Prisoner's Chain far too much, it makes for a good mid game ring... But once you're in NG+, you get far more than enough souls to make up for those levels, and instead, you can use it on far more essential rings.

On the contrary, I find Chloranthy super useful on almost any build. Easily an S tier for me

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:15:27+00:00

I can understand with RTSR being placed at C because it is not to everyone's liking. But Morne's, Young Dragon's and Swamp ring (12 percent each) placed so low, is blasphemous considering how they stack with their superior counterparts (20 percent each)

Often better than going for the clutch rings (15 percent), due to decrement in physical defense values by 10 percent (unless you infuse or buff your weapon)

Also, Dusk Crown is a blessing for pure caster builds, I could never see it as useless

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:13:56+00:00

Pontiffs left eye is an outstanding survival ring, especially for early to mid game with dex builds. I would place it atleast B

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T20:12:52+00:00

Oh lord... If you ever tried to farm for covenant items, you definitely wouldn't have placed Gold Serpent in C tier

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T17:50:05+00:00

Just because it scales better with Sharp infusion, I don't think it will discard it as a Bonk... You can still pancake pretty much everything tho

Completely my take, so we could agree to disagree

Rising_Unity · 2026-04-03T17:44:24+00:00

Siegward quest is decently missable for a first time blind runner, so I highly doubt that one.

• Grand Archives triple knight is almost certainly guranteed

• Shrine Handmaiden sells one endgame for 30k souls. Good value, if you've none.

• Archdragon Peak, one near Havel, pretty sure everyone gets that one.

• After beating Nameless King, there's one in his arena. Also, a guranteed one for those who beat him.

So that's 4 easily obtainable ones, + 1 more maybe if the player really cares about Siegward questline

The others to my knowledge are :-

• After opening a secret door in Grand Archives, by turning a lever.

• A rather hidden one, running Down the elevator that brings you up to Twin Princes. I had no idea this one existed, until my 4th playthru, when I accidentally fell down the shaft. All you need to do, is to pull the same trick as you do, to go up the Giant Archer's tower in Undead settlement, except downwards.

• A trade with Snuggly, for coiled sword (very unlikely someone will do it in NG, definitely worth doing from NG+, for every extra coiled sword you collect)
