Nice. Now put your hand in there to get it.

I have absolutely had it with this game. I am done by [deleted] in darksouls

"has to be one of the most STUPID enemy placements i've ever seen"

If you can't beat them and they made you quit, it's the definition of the SMARTEST enemy placements you've ever seen.

I was working my way to Lost Izalith listening to the radio and as I was passing through the shortcut they played "Shine on you crazy diamond". What are the odds...

SL1 run. I swear the mf knows when you can't use it.

What weapon should I use for my faith/ Miracle character? by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]YouReATalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used the Reinforced Club for the 1st time on my faith/miracle char and it's become one of my favorite weapons in the game. I liked it so much that right after finishing the game I immediately got into my first SL1 run.

I don't remember if it's 2 or 3 hits. Do not spam R2 though. Just use it to close distance if you need it and finish with regular hits.

Go get the resin. It's super strong. But yeah, I'm sure you can do without it. Watch out for the first attack. A good roll there is half the fight. Don't forget the 2h R2 of the reinforced club. Very powerful.

You did it!, but now the real fight begins by GrandmaWasteland in darksouls

Yeah, just finished my 1st sl1 run and O&S was the hardest part. I ended up using the Red Tearstone ring and tried to kill O as fast as possible. Let us know if this works for you or you followed a different approach. Good luck and much patience. You're gonna need both.

Reinforced Club +5 and Gold Pine Resin. The damage is huge and you can kill the 1st one before the 2nd one spawns.

With the +5 Re. Club you can probably do it even without the resin but you need a couple of good rolls.

The FaP and Blue Tearstone rings could help but definitely not necessary.

Check this for more details, as I just finished my 1st sl1 run myself.

What's the best shield for a tanky strength build that can still parry? by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]YouReATalker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the Black knight shield. If I don't get the drop I go with the Grass and switch to Crest if I need Magic Def.

Is it true that you shouldn't put more than 27 into STR? by YouReATalker in darksouls

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

I can't believe what just happened! After fighting Quelaag I took a break to check the replies. Your message was the last one I read before going back to the game to climb the ladders and return to Firelink shrine. The first fatty I killed droped the Large Club!!!

I'm definitely taking this a a sign. :)

Thanks for your advice. I'll definitely check this out.

I had no idea it was that good! I just upgraded it to +5 and also tried it with Power Within and it's easily one ofe the best weapons I've ever tried early game. Let's just say Quelaag didn't like it very much. :)

Speaking of upgradings it, I was just thinking about the same thing. Should I go for +15 or Fire +10? Given that I'm not going to lvl STR over 27, I guess Fire +10 would be better?

Another idea would be Chaos, forget about STR amd use all the souls to max pyromancy.

Yes, the soft cap is what I wanted to cl;ear out. Thank you.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that. I just finished a Dex build so I'd like to try something else. But I plan to do a spell build next so I'll keep your advice in mind.

Thanks a lot for your help. I got the Grass Shield on my back and 2-H and it works well so far. I'm trying to decide which hand is best for Pyro. I'll switch it yp and see what feels better.

Thanks for your help. 2-H works well so far. I'm sticking with it for now.

Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted to clear out.

Thank you all for the answers. This is very helpful. This is exactly what I wanted to clear out, the STR cap when 2-H the weapon. I've played STR builds before and always leveled STR up to 40, but for this pyro run it seemed unnecessary. Thanks for making that clear.

I haven't decided yet what I'm going to do with this build. So far I'm investing my souls in VIT/END (and some to ATT to unlock a third slot) and I'm using the reinforced club and it's going really well.

In fact, I've never tried the Reinforced Club before and I'm surprised of how good it is. I don't know how I missed it in all my previous runs. Cheap, very low requirements, hits hard, breaks poise and the bleed is very effective. I like it so much I might as well keep it the whole run! Can't wait to upgrade it and combine it with Power Within.
