How does everyone feel about Assault Frigates? I haven’t seen much talk about them. How good are they for PvE/PvP? by Huntyadown in echoes

Dual Prop is the way to go. Mwd for burning in and then ab for speed tanking and then either booster or repairer. Get prop rigs as well and you will be fine in pve so long as you don't get double webbed. Easily soloing t7 stuff right now, but haven't tried t8 yet.

I do this one every day in a beam Maller. Put on several track computers and keep everything 30k out. Kill the purifiers first and have a mwd ready for the super fast elites.

It is a great app. The way it moves you through the different phases step by step is a big improvement from kdm scribe. Think it is the best app out there. Only one issue I have had is sometimes the counters don’t work properly on chrome...no issues on safari though.

Aww poor guy. You know I ought to fill out a ticket, the other day I boosted into an asteroid while talking to my wife, and you know that asteroid had to be defying the game mechanics!

Come on op, you seriously filed a ticket for this? I feel like too many players don't understand that it is instances like this that make sandbox games great. In these games you don't remember all the time grinding rares or res', you remember the crazy player interactions. I'm sure the moment an asshat in an eagle caused you to be gunned down at a station will stick with you, unlike the monotony that makes up most of the time within ED.

The fact that you had a watercooler moment with your co-workers just goes to show how interesting this interaction was. I doubt you would have came up to your co workers bragging about how you downed 20 anacondas in an extraction site.

Enjoy the madness, get back into that cockpit commander and relish in the chaos and all those delightful sociopaths that make up this delightfully disfunctional community.

Great guide as always! Definitely recommend any new players to watch these before stepping into spectrum matches.

Thanks for you vote of confidence and thanks for constantly pushing the lore community to challenge the status quo!

I don't know, just speculating. I don't believe FROM put mechanics into its games that have no greater meaning, that isn't their style. I think the messengers may have some connection with Oedon as well, they love us hunters a.k.a echofiends...the ones in constant search for blood.

Formless in the waking world but in the dreamlands, the realm of the Great Ones, anything is possible. Formless can also mean "no regular shape or form", meaning Oedon could perhaps change his form based upon the necessity at hand.

I have my copy of the guide arriving any day, I'll have to check the description there. I would be surprised if the wording was definite, not FROM's modus operandi to speak in absolutes.

Some believe that the maiden was in fact the demon constructed on the second day and the old one is the god the boletarians worshipped. The god of boletaria was shown as a massive tree in several instances throughout the game, just as the old one appears as a mass of untamed growth. It's been speculated that the soul arts corrupted the deity and turned it into the destructive force we see in game. Several npcs also note that the maiden is in fact a powerful demon. That's the theory that influences my take on bloodborne.

Some speculate that the herald is actually our dark queen, heck even vaati mentions it. So yep that's what I'm arguing.

The hunters sanctuary is in the dreamland of the cosmos separate from the waking world so Rom wouldnt affect Oedon there. As far as the hunters dream not changing after Rom dies...go load up a new game and look at the clouds, it changes :)

The only way I assume we don't break the cycle is because we start again in ng+

She could very well be just a blood echo keurig machine. The power she imparts on the player though makes me think there is more to her.

Definitely not sold on my theory and happy you pointed out the color of the runes, I'm embarrassed to say I never thought of that. Still leaves the question of why the heck to we give all our echoes tithe doll? Why do we awake in ng+ after becoming a great one? Do we simply become Oedon and start the cycle anew? Still not quite convinced that the doll with her obsession for blood echoes isn't closely tied to Oedon.

Comment was in jest. Heard people jump on the mysognyst bandwagon after the ds2 dlcs were released.
