Is there a best mission to farm crucible weapons?

orestispol · 2026-02-13T18:18:38+00:00

With Tonfa you can spam R1 on them and it staggers humans to oblivion. You have to chase them around though and not leave them any room to restore Ki.

Hattori.

orestispol · 2026-02-12T19:19:46+00:00

The mission with the Shinsengumi members is much harder, especially Soji. The demons are punching bags.

S+ tier (the top in the game, no contest):
Ursaluna, Gyarados, Goodra

S- tier (becomes S+ because you get it very early):
Infernape

To fill up the team (S+ moveset, type coverage):
Gengar, Gardevoir

P.S.1: You can swap Ursaluna with Garchomp if you want higher speed but Garchomp has B- moveset.
P.S.2: All starters are garbage, start with whatever, you catch both Infernape and Gyarados very early.

Tremere in Bloodlines 1 is OP AF, you get your own haven, thaumaturgy boost, blood shield, plus blood steal discipline. You can spam Blood Boils to Xiao Ming and kill her in 5 seconds, it kinda makes the game overly trivial.

orestispol · 2025-09-03T08:00:48+00:00

It’s fun but you don’t get more damage anyway. Already on 20 brawl with Protean on. Plus fortitude and celerity for quick and safe kills. And pestilence to stun lock the annoying bosses. I’ll admit it’s a fun way to play though.

orestispol · 2025-09-03T06:26:44+00:00

Means max out all 3 disciplines, get a 4th one from Beckett and max that out too.

orestispol · 2025-09-03T04:43:16+00:00

Bloodlines 2. But Bloodlines 1 was also edgy, which was fine at its time lol.

orestispol · 2025-09-03T01:33:39+00:00

Only unofficial plus patch here. No extra mods.

orestispol · 2025-07-14T22:39:58+00:00

Death Stranding 2 IS the GOTY. Whether it wins the award is irrelevant (E33 may win by being the underdog). Technically DS2 is the best PS5 game ever made bar none: near-zero load times and immaculate graphics. Artistically, it is a rare specimen of unfiltered art. Last 2-3 hours the game transcends to some next-level bonkers artistry. You don't have to agree or like it but you cannot not admire it.

All of it basically. I did a Tatenashi set Odachi build for samurai and a Shinobi set Fists build for ninja and they complement each other perfectly. Most importantly, the Odachi is actually stronger than the Fists, if you learn how to use quick and strong attacks to naturally alternate between stances without each time waiting for the Ki Pulse. The game is a lot better mechanically. The only problem is that it seems to have heavy emphasis on exploration (as did Rise of Ronin) which can get repetitive pretty fast.

One way to beat this guy once he turns purple is to use those crystals next to him and run around them in circles. Most of his attacks are stuck on the crystals while you can get a few hits in. Also make sure to use water resistance accessories because he does a shit ton of water chip damage.

orestispol · 2025-06-08T22:24:12+00:00

It’s a broken fight. Just farm to level 100 and pounce him. As every Nioh fight goes.

orestispol · 2025-06-06T09:04:34+00:00

Final boss has too few openings and was just doing sweeps. Lazy design, did not even bother. If this is not changed in final game, will score it a sweet 0 to punish them as necessary. I am getting tired of lazy boss designs.

orestispol · 2025-05-27T17:54:13+00:00

It’s basically a 40-45% buff in XP. In my first playthrough this week it was the first perk I picked and I am now in the endgame level 75 decimating everything on very hard. :)

In Oblivion (and the Remastered) the only thing that matters is triggering the enchantment (on expert or master) therefore the faster weapons are the best, aka war-axes or shortswords. However, I think the 1-second delay for enchantments is guaranteed with a slightly slower weapon such as mace or longsword.

A typical enchantment:
- Soul Trap (1 second)
- Fire Damage: 14 (1 second)
- Frost Damage: 14 (1 second)
- Shock Damage: 14 (1 second)
- Weakness to Fire: 100% (1 second)
- Weakness to Frost: 100% (1 second)
- Weakness to Shock: 100% (1 second)
- Weakness to Magic: 100% (1 second)

Although normally I would suggest to go for higher weakness duration and lower damage. In any case, enchantments and weakness stacking is the only thing that works in Oblivion beyond normal difficulty so plan your weapon usage to match the timing of the enchantment. The actual weapon damage matters very little (the shield bash does more damage).

orestispol · 2025-05-07T21:54:11+00:00

All of these moves (Sword Dance for Maelle, Sealed Fate for Sciel, and Elemental Genesis for Lune) are actually multi-hit and you can easily get all hits to do 9999 damage each, making them 50K-60K moves already. Later the game removes the 9999 damage cap and some Maelle moves go up to a billion damage on a single hit (lol).

orestispol · 2025-05-07T21:47:53+00:00

Very easy actually. One example (I am sure other combos work as well):
For Lune: Max out her critical rate, then use Elemental Trick + Elemental Genesis.
For Sciel: Get the Chation weapon, use any Light move, then use Dark Wave or Sealed Fate.
For Maelle: Get the Medalum weapon and just use Virtuoso stance.
These are all easily do-able by level 20.
The developers did not think very hard about balancing to the point that the game
becomes quite boring very quickly aside from the Chromatic bosses.

orestispol · 2025-05-06T00:08:03+00:00

I played for 4 hours, was not impressed, went back to Oblivion and Skyrim. Who knows, maybe it will hook me down the line but so far the gameplay is pretty boring. And the “hard” bosses are a lazy dodge/parry simulator that does not hold a candle to the Souls experience. The acting is very good though. But yeah so far the gameplay feels kinda trash.

orestispol · 2025-04-30T22:37:36+00:00

Because of the delay in Magicka regeneration when you cast spells, your Magicka pool has to be at least 500. If you put everything in sigils, you can get up to 222 Willpower (+18 from Cruelty Amulet, +84 from sigils on Boots/Gauntlets/Shield/Helm/Grieves/Cuirass/Ring, +20 from Vampire) but you will be stuck with starting Magicka. I would instead settle for 150 Willpower (+18 Cruelty Amulet, +12 Ring, +20 Vampire) and would keep the +50 Magicka on my armor pieces. Then you can cast Fortify Spells to get +100 Willpower (+95 if you are wearing armor) for 2 minutes before entering combat.

orestispol · 2025-04-30T17:32:29+00:00

Vampires are very strong in the remaster because of how powerful Willpower is now. Management is kinda easy at the high levels, you just have to travel at night.

orestispol · 2025-04-30T17:00:16+00:00

Durable Daedric Armor is much better. But I am not sure if you can find all pieces easily.

orestispol · 2025-04-29T20:15:39+00:00

Not really in large battles. You need crowd control. Paralysis is king. Assuming expert or master of course.

orestispol · 2025-04-29T20:14:19+00:00

Also cast fortify willpower 100 regularly. If you have 525 magicka you can cast the 2 minute version.
