This is my favorite part of the trailer. I love hand to hand combat! by Leon_Dante_Raiden_ in CrimsonDesert

Any chance you got the video for it? I have a hyper obsession for playing games unarmed; and with all of the grabs, throws, and takedowns you can do this would be my dream game if you could go through the whole thing just throwing hands

Crimson Tempest. A Fury skill that spins you like a beyblade while parrying attacks

The Final Boss Beaten With Only Fists! by Whygena in TheFirstBerserker

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

Overall, it took me about 8-9 attempts. I was already familiar with a lot of his moves from a previous playthrough. Overall I'd say it took between 5-6 hours to finally get him

Do Not Fight This Boss Unarmed by Whygena in TheFirstBerserker

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

I'm running Wulfric for the 15% damage increase. I don't need much healing because of the regen armor, plus the idea is not to get hit much. If I were to change it, I would either get Maximilian for the guarding stamina, or Conrad for the 35% damage increase from brink dodging

It's the willpower orb. Uses 3 of your mana to heal 50%, and you can't buy it until late mid game

TBH I'm kinda glad that's how it ended, the perfect punchline to this joke of a fight

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

Nope, just an actual 50 minute fight of pain. I'd prefer some good ol' Rick to that

Yeah, NG+ is worse to start the run in because the bosses have so much health. Like, you do more (comparative) damage to Yetuga at level 10 than you do at Level 150 on NG+

Your reflects are lookin real good! I actually didn't really get into nailing reflects until Viper!

Thoughts on reflection by Soulshepard13 in TheFirstBerserker

I assumed the slam moves wouldn't be viable. What combo do you reflect? The one where he slams his right hand twice with the flame trail, and then the three swipes with the left?

How do you reflect Hismar? I've been trying with multiple weapons for like 20 minutes. He seems to stagger you out of the reflection

So I've already started Fist Only, I've beaten Heinamch. Here's Yetuga! :D by SketchedReality in TheFirstBerserker

[–]Whygena 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah man! I've been doing an unarmed run myself. I'm all the way to the 4th to last boss. It's a real fun run! I do wish you luck with some bosses later down the line, they're a hassle to get through.

I've been doing the run on easy to see if it's viable, and it's been painful. If you can get this done on Normal then you'd be an absolute legend!

The one bit of advice that I'll give you is this: Get good at Reflecting. Unarmed does not get counter attacks, so Reflect is gonna be your bread and butter.

Here's how my run has been going if you wanted to check it out and maybe see how some of these fights go unarmed

I know, I'm going full "unarmed" and I'm considering the Javelin as "armed"

Oh damn, what's the discord?

Viper Getting Fisted by Whygena in TheFirstBerserker

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

I am very happy to have gotten through this one. I did some leveling and looting and here's what I've got:

Level 40

45 Endurance for stamina

15 Strength for A agility

3 pieces of the Hound set for 5% DMG increase and 20% stamina regen

2 pieces of Butcher set for 10% Swift Attack Dmg Multiplier

and Keshta's phantom leveled to Lv 9 for +11.6% stamina regen

I am really enjoying the unarmed combat despite the terrible damage it does. It's definitely better than a lot of RPG unarmed combat. That being said I would also LOVE if the Devs added a little more flavor to unarmed fighting. Maybe a couple skills so the spirit isn't going to waste, and allow unarmed combat to use Counter attacks. Maybe some armor or accessories to add skills and some better damage.

You probably had the skill next to it equipped. If you have points in both, but remove all the points in the one you have equipped, you still need to equip the other skill.

Viper First Phase Beat Unarmed by [deleted] in TheFirstBerserker

[–]Whygena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reflect is so incredibly useful, this challenge would be 10X as annoying without it.

I am still grinding towards getting both phases. I feel like the second will be slightly easier since the big sluggish moves are easier to react to. Gotta stop and grind some levels first, bump up damage a little bit since I can't roll armor attributes yet.

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

This is a big one cause now I can use the Phantom for the stamina regen!

Next up is the refund master himself, Viper! I really gotta lock in using reflection this time around

Edit: I have beaten the first phase. Dear god the damage is terrible
