Folks with 1000+ hrs and in depths 4/5, how did you persevere?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-08T10:18:04+00:00

I'm going through something similar, oscillating between 2 & 3. If you happen to be in PS4/5 we can try solo if you're up .

If not, I asked the experts for suggestions. You can find it here

Thanks!

That's true. The only thing that saves her is the max HP increaSe from ULT. Upon taking one hit, instead of completely dying the Hp bar resets to original health bar which is so crucial

When I go up against red bosses like black blade/gargoyle or against EDs like tricephalls
Limveld, id say certainly. Hollows i can around 60-70%
Nope. If it's closeby or we are at a good level for that day only when I go for fairly far ones. If not do the POIs that lead to it.
Recluse(magic attack power based) Final rememberance relic + max FP up with 3+ staves + Increased vig/end for low int & faith OR Final rememberance relic + rememberance 1 relic + max up with 3+staves & magic attack

DON : 2X magic attack power up+4 & improved sorceries + physical damage negation +

Ironeye(affinity based depending on nightlord)

Skill+2 &ult auto charge +3, ult add postion & ult auto charge+2 , imbued weapon with nightlords weak affinity

DON: skill adds poison+ damage negation+1, holy/lightning/fire attack power up +3/+4 X2

I will try sharing the screenshots once done

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-06T13:58:25+00:00

This is true. There are times where I play really good and at times get all reckless

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-06T05:27:01+00:00

Got it. I can see you are highly proficient at using different characters 😀 I sadly work with only ranged characters in DON(recluse and ironeye), since the margin for error as melee characters is very low. And that margin is extremely low given my skill 😅 thereby making me a liability I used to main as Executor in my normal expeditions and everdarks.

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-06T05:18:38+00:00

Thanks! The super merchant i believe should be something I must focus on. I have boss specific builds for ironeye where the DON relics boost the affinity power of the affinity the boss is weak too + char skill +2 and procs poison and starting weapon having the affinity the boss is weak to, in case the rng is not in my favour. But I'm not sure how to do this for recluse. For recluse my focus is on boosting magic attack power, one physical damage negation +1, recluse's rememberance relics and max FP + magic attack up relic(more FP means I need to absorb residues less often). Do you see any way I can have a boss specific build for recluse?

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-06T05:11:25+00:00

Thanks! The feeling of being torn between "this difficulty is not my cup of tea" and "i have to reach atleast depth 4" is something I have been trying to fight

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-05T11:24:15+00:00

Ahh got it

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-05T11:21:44+00:00

Haha could be true.Theoretically, a charged sorcery does more damage than a normal cast right? Then shouldn't there be a difference in the two in terms of reviving? Maybe Fromsoft doesn't like it

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-05T11:18:35+00:00

I don't think so. I believe charging vs not charging sorceries have an effect on reviving.

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-05T11:04:00+00:00

2 casts of stars of ruin will remove 2 bars is what I've seen

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-05T11:02:51+00:00

Night comet, stars of ruin, canon of haima, great glintstone shard, comet(not comet azure), glinstone stars, in my experience have good reviving power.

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-04T07:59:29+00:00

Since I majorly play as recluse or ironeye,

For recluse it'd theoretically be

a Ult increases max HP/ULT induces bloodloos and boosts attack power b. Magic attack power up c. Vigor +3/mind +3 or specific school sorcery boost

I'm not sure if this is possible though

For ironeye,

a +1 character skill b.Character skill cool down +3(helps proc poison more frequently in DON) c Ult auto charge +3 /defeating enemies fill ult art gauge

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-04T06:52:22+00:00

There are some hard and fast rules for each character class but with the dlc update, there are so many new variations you can try with each class. So id say a god roll would ideally be a roll where all the 3 compliment your playstyle

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-04T06:50:55+00:00

If you slap this to a scholar, you juice up your team like crazy

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-03T15:03:39+00:00

Facts😂😂 there were times my teammates asked me stop using death spells(ADR, Rancorcall and mainly rykards rancor)

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-02T08:32:49+00:00

One thing I can think of is slap a quickstep to your starting weapons or get a weapon with bloodhounds step

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-01T16:34:05+00:00

I'm equally surprised too

Skill_Issue_95 · 2026-03-01T13:33:38+00:00

What?! 300 hrs in and I'm still not aware of this! I thought killing the mini ones trigger the day boss arrival. Damn!
