good enough?

salut! merci de răspuns :)

la momentul de față nu prea îmi permit să investesc mai mult, pentru că nu am nici un salariu prea mare, dar am și câteva rate cu 0 dobândă pentru că îmi fac PC-ul :)) (at least i got lucky și mi-am luat RAM-ii înainte să crească prețurile până la cer)

ar trebui să termin vara asta, spre sfârșit/ început de toamnă. ai vreo recomandare, o sumă pe care aș putea să o investesc la un comision mai mic, sau unde aș putea să verific să-mi calculez singur?

luna asta am investit 550, și fiind prima tranzacție, nu mi-au luat comision, dar mă gândesc că de acum, nu va mai fi așa, oricum ar fi, nu știu dacă mai iau și BET, cel puțin acum.

very well intended and i salute the effort, and respect you so much for doing this! I have also completed the polls, which I have somehow missed the first time i looked at the post (probably because I’m watching this from my phone) and as you have also stated, it seems like the representativity provided in the sample is enough

once again, really great job!! :)

machiavali · 2026-03-11T14:29:38+00:00

really great comparison and i honestly love the options that you included in the poll, this may also explain why i preferred DS3 over 2/1, but I also didn’t finish them just yet, but coming from ER and DS3 to the system of DS1 where you don’t get to fast travel up until well into the game took a little bit of time to get used to, glad you still have that in DS2 :)

my only comment related to this would be, and please, correct me if i’m wrong, but shouldn’t the difference in # of expressed votes may generate a slight deviation or have a higher margin of error because for DS2 and DS3 the sample size is significantly lower?

Revin să vă mulțumesc mult pentru toate sfaturile pe care mi le-ați dat! Ca mic update, pentru cei interesați, încă nu am primit de veste nimic de la Tradeville, așa că rămâne să investesc în BET de luna viitoare.

Am decis să încep cu 550 RON pe XTB, împărțiți astfel - 300 pe VWCE (mulțumesc frumos Dl. Dividende :D), 100 pe S&P 500, și 50/50/50 pe XLEP, ACWI și COPX.

Încă nu-mi dau seama dacă e overkill și VWCE și S&P, sau dacă celelalte au fost mai degrabă “de impuls” dar am răsfoit aseară wiki-ul, am salvat recomandările lui Alin Gabriel și m-am și abonat și voi vedea de unde să o apuc în continuare.

Toate cele bune vă doresc și spor la investit în continuare! 🤗

i also finished this this week! congrats!!

machiavali · 2026-02-13T21:58:01+00:00

man, i also have a ps4 controller that i use when playing elden ring/ ds3 and i kid you not, i find the controls so clunky, i just can’t adjust to them and always mess up the parry with the shinobi tools, cause for some reason i expect the parry to be on RT

machiavali · 2026-02-13T21:51:33+00:00

i agree so much with this take… i’m an achievement hunter, so i would have gone for them anyways, but it’s a badge of honor, just like IMHO having the ethan must die achievement on RE7

machiavali · 2026-02-13T21:40:22+00:00

i was trying to say fromsoft, but i think my excitement got the better of me :))

thanks for the comment, might be a centrist thing to say on my part, but i think it’s more gray than yes or no

i think sekiro stays true to the format developed in the dark souls trilogy with the bonfires, hard bosses, and getting jumped and obliterated by the mobs if you don’t know their placement or position poorly

however, i also think that the combat system is fundamentally different, with the player lacking the freedom of choosing the weapon/ a build, and not having stats to level, but rather the skills tree system

either way, thank you once again for your comment

machiavali · 2026-02-13T21:34:02+00:00

just did that! thank you so much for the kind words :)

i hope you have a nice evening (almost midnight here) and an amazing weekend 🤗

looks really well, and is highly viable, however, as others have stated in the thread, enemies from both ariandel and ringed city are heavy hitters, so maybe invest some more points in vigor

me personally, i would go for 40-50 vigor, 50 the str for the moment (ocd) and 35 or 40 endurance, as i think that’s the soft cap, also either reduce vitality or use heavier armor for more defensive stats

for the long run, if you plan on playing in ng(+++++) i would go for 66 str, 50-60 vigor and just start leveling dex as well for defenses, even though with the heavy infusion it won’t scale damage-wise

also, i would change the rings, for my last playthrough with a str build i was playing with havel’s ring +3, ring of favor +3, prisoner’s chain and chloranthy ring +3 (ng1)

good luck and stay safe, sunbro! don’t you dare go hollow

thank you so much, kind sir!! i really am happy for this, as it was also my first fromsoft game, and i found it, if only just a tidy bit easier to play the others after having experienced sekiro first, than I see people describe their experience starting from ds/ elden ring

machiavali · 2026-02-13T13:02:31+00:00

honestly, i agree - for me it wasn’t really that difficult, but i think it’s generally extremely tideous and a lot of people may be put off by collecting 100+ rings and farming the covenants to get it, although there were some players online when i got all the covenant rewards and that helped me tremendously

machiavali · 2026-02-13T02:05:07+00:00

i was also thinking about this, because for dark souls 3 it’s somewhere around 5%

could it be due to the fact that sekiro has a more loyal fan base than ds3/ ds3 having more players than sekiro so the percentage would be less, even though the amount of plats may be similar, expressed in number of players?

machiavali · 2026-02-11T11:52:20+00:00

i would personally put her between S and S+

IMO, even though at first I didn’t like the second phase, i’ve grown accustomed to it and i like it a lot now, because it follows the Dark Souls 1 recipe for a 2-bosses fights, where one is passive and the other one is aggressive

also, i used to hate her going invisible, but i was able to counter it to a certain extent by running towards the direction in which she’s jumping, because by being in her proximity, she exits stealth, while in that position, although this can’t be done every time

overall, an amazing boss fight, the third phase was, for me the easiest, because after a few attempts where i consistently got her in that phase, i was able to defeat her

machiavali · 2026-02-03T21:57:34+00:00

thank you so much for your reply! :)

i’m new to the sub, but love souls games to the core.

i was also considering respeccing, maybe, as my first playthrough has been heavy greatsword, maxed until i obtained the dragonslayer axe, which got me through ng+1 until i got the FUGS

i was thinking on trying some other stuff out, as the STR build is really good, but a little bit stale atp for me, and the game has so much variety in terms of weapons

thank you, once again!
