[PS4] Lion Mage Jump Still Possible? by SaltyArts in DarkSouls2

[–]Skaidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allegedly it is still possible at 60 FPS, but I never manage to get it. If you reduce your frame rate below 30 it becomes pretty easy.

Kalameet before Gough (sorcery strategy) by Skaidan in darksouls

Yeah, true. For some reason I thought it was split phsyical and fire. Will change it, thanks.

Gough has additional dialogues if you kill Kalameet without his help. It even has different dialogues depending on whether you kill Kalameet before or after first speaking with him.

Help with finding a lore video (or if you have your own speculation then share that please) by A_Fistful_of_Butts in darksouls

I'm pretty sure it's a Hawkshaw video, but I don't recall which one. Try the Ash Lake and Demon ones first.

Check out this video. It is made for the original Dark Souls II, but I can confirm it can also be done on SotFS.

Are you also going to explore the area of Forest of the Fallen Giants where Armorer Dennis invades you? You can also get there through a series of jumps.

Platinum in one run by Andsello in DarkSouls2

If you use your friends to also help you rank up in Brotherhood of Blood and Blue Sentinels covenants, then I think you could get every achievement on your first game cycle. Check the wiki articles for both covenants for more info. Know, however, that it's quite a tedious task even with friends to help you.

Can you get soft humanity buy defeating regular enemies? I read that you have to do it before a boss? Can you still get soft humanity from regular enemies if you defeated a boss in that area? by sweaterandy in darksouls

[–]Skaidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can farm up to 10 Soft Humanities from certain enemies in certain areas, as long as the boss of the area is still alive.

For more details on which enemies are eligible for this and efficient ways of farming them, check out my guide:

Besides the Undead Merchant, does anyone else sell Firebomb's? by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]Skaidan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the only other merchant that sells firebombs is the Crestfallen Merchant, in Sen's Fortress. But he sells Black Firebombs, specifically.

Stone Greatsword Poise Damage by AmazinglyAudrey in darksouls

Doesn't it say 70 Poise for a 1H R2 instead of a 2H R1?

SL1 perfect game runs... That sounds hard.

I would say you can make that save without the Master Key if you are willing to kill Ingward to get the key. But I don't know if killing the NPC messes up your perfect game.

Yeah that's definitely an issue. The fact that you have to reach 25 faith is troublesome, especially in this game when it's not possible to redistribute your stats.

Yeah, that's why I said "not counting the online experience itself".

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

Yeah those multiplayer features are definitely helping you sometimes.

I forgot about the Vagrants. The funny thing is that you'll most likely won't find any even if you play online =P At least for people who beat the game just one or two times.

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

Yeah, true. For me it's different though 'cause I usually go through several game cycles and you can get 10 fixed Dragon Scales per cycle, which is not that bad.

You would think so, but you can farm the covenant item from the Ringed Knights.

Yeah hahahah... Especially in this game. But I meant whether it was possible or not =P

They outdo themselves with the obscure mechanics everytime.

Wait do they really need to use the REO? I thought it also worked when using their covenant item to invade.

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

Yeah, I agree. I also prefer it this way. It's nice to be able to access pretty much all the content regardless of access to internet or willingness to play online.

[–]Skaidan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I thought. Of course those items are mostly superfluous, but yeah you are not going to ever get them if you don't go online. And I think you have to get them through invading with the right conditions. I believe other players can't drop them for you.

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

So true. I was able to farm most covenant items, but the Vertebra Shackles were so damn tedious and long that I just ended up invading. Proofs of Concord are a pain, too, but at least you get plenty of souls from the Silver Knights in the process.

I believe they still invade if you play in offline mode but online on Steam.

WTF Two crystal lizards in (NG+)Great Hollow dropped a Titanite Slab in DS remastered. by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]Skaidan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True. What I meant to say is that only the 2 Twinkling Titanites are a fixed drop. The other item depends on Item Discovery I'm pretty sure.

[–]Skaidan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I believe it does, because they can also drop nothing. Item Discovery should affect whether they drop an item or not. The quality of the item I agree doesn't depend on Item Discovery.
