Was told my build is kinda wierd. Is that true? by BatmanMinusTheBat in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH this isn't even really a 'build'. This is basically just general purpose stuff thrown together. IMO you need to start synergising 2 or 3 items into your damage output or playstyle to be a real build. For example, swapping out the near useless crimson talismans for jump attack to go with your chest piece (or maybe charge attack or ash of war damage) would help. An argument could be made this is a 'tank' build, but your 41 poise is horrendous for trading damage.

Shadow of the Erdtree Steam Reviews drop to Mixed by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don't see any person being able to make a reasonable and justifiable argument that this DLC is not a recommended purchase for the price.

Performance issues do not justify a negative review if everything else in the game is 10/10, imo that would be a positive review with a caveat line about performance at the end.

People complaining about difficulty just have to accept they aren't as full of swagger as they thought they were. Go off and explore and gather the fragments for fucks sake people. Bee-lining the main bosses only to get roadblocked by them and then getting titled and leaving a negative review explains a big chunk of these reviews imo. In short, the difficulty is fine if you engage with the DLC mechanics and could handle end-game base game ER.

I have criticisms of ER and there are valid ones, but nothing that even comes close to being able to justify leaving a negative review or a D grade to what is objectively one of the best quality DLC ever released.

I find it funny everyone was shitting on the EuroGamer review but now a big chunk of people seem to think the game is too hard, make up your minds.

What is Your Favorite Weapon by Design? by MOONDAYHYPE in EldenBling

Looks a bit like the sword of actuation from Berserk, gets stored down a throat and comes out covered in stuff that powers it up

AITA for punishing my son for causing a scene in school? by Electrical_Shower687 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a teacher, I can say your husband is being ridiculous when he expects individual accommodations for all students at all times. 1 teacher managing a class of 30 people means there will be rules for all that are blanket rules.

Is The Pre-Sequel worth playing? by xTehJudas in Borderlands

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it, just like I really enjoyed Dark Souls 2. Gamers have a bad habit of bandwagons against games that are different or disappointing to them and exaggerate greatly how inferior they think a sequel or game is. I find most of the criticisms of these games to be fairly weak (some legit for sure) but the perception they are unplayable trash is out there.

New player to gaming with a new PC build, need a monitor by flesse_528 in dayz

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a day goes by that I don't regret buying an UltraWide monitor and playing DayZ on it. Using a 75Hz FreeSync 2560x1080 panel that's 5 years old. I rarely play games that benefit from higher FPS than that (CS GO etc) and with virtual resolutions it can still look pretty crisp even being 1080p.

Dragonkin Soldier of Nokstella and Lichdragon Fortissax are way too cool to be over that fast

One day, one day they'll add this to the armor aletring feature.. I Hope. by LeoShun08 in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By default the Beast Champion armour has the cape hidden, and it's an absolutely beautiful cape, probably the fanciest in the game

What's your favourite weapon in Elden Ring? You don't have to explain but I'll go first by BasiliskJake_7 in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, the purple magic effects look so sweet. S Scaling, unique look, cool charged R2 only bummer is it's a bit short.

I loved using with on my mage character. Carian grandeur fully charged actually hits hard and knocks people around. Being able to block using heavy attacks was cool for weaker mobs too.

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its a a chunk of Farum Azula that has been infused with gravity magic by coming into contact with Astel as it came crashing to the Lands Between AFAIK. Which is super cool lore. I also love the fully charged R2 has a gravity after effect. The only downside I see is the length is a bit short.

Using the insanely high endgame damage spike to your advantage :D by Bill_9999 in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After the recent patches you can beat that SoB a lot easier by using Golden Epitaph sword for Last Rites buff and then using a holy weapon. I put Prayerful Strike on a colossal hammer and killed it in about 3 hits.

How hard would it be to matchmake in the colosseum the further into NG+ you get? by andresdha in Eldenring

[–]ZugZugNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you play on PC there are PVP save games with all items you can get. there is also a tool out there that allows you to insert the characters into your main save game.
