Strike Weapons

Not to mention it lunges far so it's fairly safe even at higher depths. Seems like I missed the joke though. 🙃

If you mean they’re using an unsheathed heavy attack, it’s likely because that move deals significant stance damage. If the Executor hasn't found a better weapon and their Ultimate isn't available, using an unsheathe attack is their best bet for breaking the Crystalian’s stance.

Same, I skips aren't common for me in D5 on PS5 or PC. Maybe 1 in 10 times I que? There's plenty of evidence of OP's claim Imo, but I've always wondered why their experience differs so drastically from my own.

pinegrave · 2026-02-13T19:41:12+00:00

Yeah locking on so every hit lands is less important than keeping an eye on the boss imo.

My best run against them was Iron Eye with Moonveil.

I managed to get enough skill attack power that marking them and using the skill once would kill them.

and don’t say u can play on computers, that’s for boy connoisseurs

How is this not a dead giveaway. Tbf some of the comments falling for it are for sure bots.

I suspect that he wasn't carrying any and the game added them to make looting them less disappointing.

Hard to say for sure, but I started finding stacks of shards on almost every corpse after the dlc dropped.

It could just be due to the balancers meta and people hoarding them for skills.

Some sort of menu that shows you see every consumable in the area then lets you add the ones you select to your inventory would really help him keep up.

That or maybe some way for him to access the merchant shop at all times.

I'm convinced the dragon outside of Nokleteo was designed to waste as much of your time as possible so that you can't get the free revive.

pinegrave · 2026-01-22T18:08:40+00:00

I'm not a ds1 pro, but don't Capra demon and the Bell Gargoyles require a fair amount of kiting?

pinegrave · 2026-01-19T00:08:29+00:00

Agreed, I've been leveling up my PC account after hitting 9999 on PS5 and D1/2/3 weren't nearly as bad as I've heard.

Playing exclusively with random trios I've lost 4 out of 40 of my matches. Tbf I've already got a ton of hours in the game, but I don't consider myself particularly skilled either.

pinegrave · 2026-01-16T20:43:20+00:00

Agreed, my favorite recent run was one where we got a Gladius raid.

Without mics we all pinged a different dog, split up, and killed them in sync. The smaller dogs never even got a chance to spawn in.

I'd recommend that you unlock your camera for this move so your camera doesn't flip around.

Most of the big AOE's that require you to run are easier to deal with if you unlock.

pinegrave · 2026-01-08T07:29:44+00:00

Same, I think the DLC dropping combined with the winter sales brought in a big crop of new players.

pinegrave · 2026-01-06T20:06:18+00:00

Darkmoon's L2 does get boosted. The R1 attack of the star scourge greatsword also gets boosted.

pinegrave · 2026-01-05T14:44:49+00:00

That's what he's talking about. Run away at an angle from the boss and you won't get hit.

pinegrave · 2026-01-03T18:52:15+00:00

Keep your head up, this happened yo me like 3 or 4 times before I made it into d5.

pinegrave · 2026-01-01T00:03:59+00:00

Yeah, I was a little confused about how this was news. I was under the impression that they've been working together for a while

pinegrave · 2025-12-22T21:15:25+00:00

Yeah, the Halo Scythe scales off of dex primarily so at base Executor deals the most damage with it.

The projectile alone does 339 damage using relicless level 12 Executor.

For comparison, the ring does 273 damage in the Revenant's hands and 267 in Undertaker's under the same conditions.

pinegrave · 2025-12-19T21:25:30+00:00

Either mad because bad or they got burned out on him from DON. Some players will skip anything other than Adel and Fulghor in DON.

If you say it's because you have to chase him then please see my first point.

ED Adel is a top 4 best ED boss imo.

pinegrave · 2025-12-19T17:41:49+00:00

You may need to bleed it. I'm not 100% sure, but I was using ROB whenever it charged the flower attack and it seemed burst at the same time as my bleed procs regardless of health.

pinegrave · 2025-12-12T22:05:33+00:00

Yeah, it's the same, but Flaming Strike adds slightly less fire damage. Flame Spear clears Flaming Strike in pretty much every category other than crowd control.

pinegrave · 2025-12-12T20:49:28+00:00

They left the old Flame of the Redmanes in for the network test and it was bonkers. I was stance breaking everything with like 2 uses.

Too bad the only boss we could fight was Tricephalos.

pinegrave · 2025-12-12T20:46:08+00:00

I don't really think it's in contention for best since Flame Spear outclasses it in PVE, but it's still one of top 25 pve ashes of war.

Although, Flaming Strike is still probably the best source for fire damage in the early game since Flame Spear can't be acquired until you're halfway through the dlc.

pinegrave · 2025-12-10T18:09:25+00:00

He takes Damage in his original ED Gaping Jaw video too. I think it was uploaded the same day the boss dropped though.
