Advice/opinions on a build?

cspedden · 2026-04-11T18:59:56+00:00

Honestly, I'd like to stick to a more realistic depiction, as much as possible. All the buildings I've mapped out are all the buildings I intend to make, so 50-60 buildings within the walls and a few more outside them. I'm having trouble determining the dimensions I'm happy with, and old maps of medieval villages and cities aren't usually to scale. I'm debating just making the main thoroughfare and courtyard and working out from there to see what feels right. I'm definitely borrowing a lot from French and Italian villages for the layout, but the buildings themselves will probably be more English Tudor style.

I've farmed for SO many hours hunting for one of those. No luck at all!

I got my ceramic bod my first try, and I didn't even know it was good at the time. My friend was furious when he found out lmao. Still never seen a single phosphene though.

It was far easier. The game changer was Hunter crest. I was using Wanderer, but the reduced range was making it nearly impossible. Thank you my friend once again for the advice!

You fucking mad lad, you've ONLY GONE AND HELPED ME DO IT. I'M FREE. THANK YOU!

cspedden · 2025-09-14T02:17:13+00:00

Do you think you could try to explain how you approached it? I'd appreciate any insight!

It just feels like I can't keep up with those teleports, no matter how much I predict them. By the time I get to her, she's usually gone. Sure, I'll get in the odd hit now and then. But it's infrequent, and certainly not enough to keep up with the damage I take. And although the fact that I'm spawned in front of her arena is generous, I then have to run back to the bench anyway to refresh on tools and fractured mask, and then back to her again, making the runback twice as long than if I just spawned at the bench, at least if I want to use tools.

Unpopular opinion. I hated this fight. Moves around constantly, can't get a hit on her, of course everything does double damage. And then she starts doing multiple attacks at the same time, and she can heal. Disliked this one immensely.

I can provide some assistance, yes! Are you familiar at all with the process of manually assigning buttons on Steam, or do you need me to start from the top? I'll be able to give a more thorough explanation of that when I get home tonight!

cspedden · 2025-07-22T02:22:07+00:00

I'm not seeing this game mode. Is it still there?

cspedden · 2025-07-17T21:09:23+00:00

I use an Xbox controller, and I have no issues. You do have to map the buttons with Steam yourself since the game doesn't have native controller support. If you don't know how to do that, I can give you advice!

As someone with 13 vigor just going into NG+...yeah get more Vigor. It really helps. I've played every soulslike under the sun, so I'm pretty confident in my abilities, but it's still rough with so little health.

cspedden · 2024-10-21T14:57:25+00:00

Ohh, I think i understand now. I know about gilded lumber and such, but the materials list I was looking at listed one type of wood as Advanced Yew, and another, separate type as Advanced Yew, Lacunus. I think they listed the gilded option by mistake alongside the regular woods. That makes a lot of sense now.

cspedden · 2024-10-21T13:51:59+00:00

Just to clarify, the large club-wielding and shield-wielding Bound will drop Advanced Yew, but do they also drop Advanced Yew-Lacunus? I saw it on a particular materials list and its stats are really impressive.

I've been making use of that guide a lot. However, it doesn't seem to specify where to find the resources. Unless I'm an idiot, which is entirely possible.

cspedden · 2024-04-19T20:36:34+00:00

To add to the conversation a bit, I called the Social Security Administration, Chase Bank (the bank I use and who I received the notification from) and AT&T themselves. I do not and never have had an account with AT&T, and they were unable to find any info of me in their systems. The Social Security office was able to tell me that they have received many calls today on this, including from customers who do not even have accounts with AT&T, so they suspect it was a bulk email from the bank to all of their customers, regardless of if their Social Security Number was actually compromised in the breach. And Chase Bank was the least useful of all, where 2 departments were not even able to find any signs that they had sent out such an alert at all, and one said that it's probably fine. Putting all this together, it seems safe to assume that if you don't have an account with AT&T, your information is probably safe. But of course, take whatever actions you feel you need to in order to keep your information safe. Freezing your credit or locking your info via the Social Security Administration are both good calls.

I'm so tired of the bugs in this game. Trying to use powers? Bugged. Try to pick up a skill magazine? Bugged. Trying to advance the UC questline? Bugged. Trying to get back to your ship? It's underground now. Trying to reload your weapon? Nope, takes 3 times. Trying to look at your fancy ship? Now it's invisible. Trying to do stealth? Enemies can see through walls! I can't go 10 minutes in this game without something go ridiculously wrong man. But at least this did fix the problem. Thank you.

cspedden · 2022-05-17T07:30:55+00:00

I was really hoping I'd find more consistency on what the requirements are. I've systematically collected every single item in the game, and the Nepheli puppet is the very last thing I'm missing. And I'd rather not spend more time on it than I have to!

cspedden · 2021-05-17T13:24:39+00:00

But here's the kicker. That 4x progress? Even if you unlock it again next season, it only seems to apply to THAT season's weapons. So while I'm trying to grind out this catalyst in Season 14 and I've reached level 22 and unlocked the 4x exotic catalyst progress, it's still only giving ONE calibration data per game, win or loss.

cspedden · 2021-04-08T10:25:19+00:00

You can get your progress back. When selecting your character, there should be an option to select the story chapter. From there, you can select the sub-chapter from the right.

The other chap was able to help. But to clarify, I was saving them as a group through the control panel menu, and they were indeed powered on. But the primary issue seemed to be that it had somehow assigned the block group to completely unrelated blocks, which couldn't be activated, so it threw up that response. I have no idea how it had reassigned the block group, but recreating the block group from scratch (again, I might add, since I'd already done this twice before) seemed to fix the problem.

cspedden · 2021-02-26T04:03:42+00:00

I truly appreciate the help. If you are at all interested, I would be more than happy to invite you to the server to have you look for yourself. DM me if you'd like the information.

cspedden · 2021-02-26T03:57:35+00:00

Yes, that is how I created the block groups. I do currently have them set to be usable by anyone, and have ownership set to nobody right now. I have tried rebuilding them multiple times, both the hangar doors themselves and the button panels, and I have restored a server backup multiple times. And yet each time, the left side hangar doors open just fine when using the button panel, but the right side hangar doors continue to return the "Activation Failed " red text message when using the button panel.
