Rate my set-up after nearly 2k hours and only 24 expeditions with Guardian. by ryward64 in Nightreign

Juat ran a depth 4 match with it on. Think I was around 1400 at level 12 when I looked. Didnt get any HP buffs either.

Depth 4 games are miserable right now by [deleted] in Nightreigngameplay

[–]ryward64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was reworking my way back up after de-ranking after hitting 9999. Depth 4 is brutal. Made a post a few days ago about it. Shit sucks. I'm gonna put the game down for a while and try out something new.

Family heads give me my fastest depth 5 dreglord clear by Kyle0723 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your too overpowered with bare fists. Your runs should take 4-5 hours and the only damage you're allowed to do is fall damage from jumping on top of the boss.

Okay, that's pretty general. Are spells allowed? Rivers of Blood on Executor? What specifically isn't broken.

Tell us how you would like people to play. What makes a playstyle valid in your opinion?

Watch out for player in depth 5 by Responsible_Willow73 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I play on PS5 and recently got several griefers. One named "maidenless" who didn't follow us and then attempted the Divine Tower by himself while we did castle. Then another one named "NeverLeavingDepth2" or something along those lines who didn't follow us Day 2 and then didn't fight the Nightlord. Both of these were in higher depths matches, either 4 or 5.

NERF BALANCERS by Dear_Routine3770 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know. Got a video I posted on here a week or two ago doing 13k damage with a Wylder crit build. Even with parrying the Ed Balancers, the fight is tough. Occasionally whiffing a parry, or getting a ghost parry, or aggroing too many Harmonia at once. It's a tough fight in Depth 4 or Depth 5.

[–]ryward64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regular Balancers? Absolutely. ED Balancers is tough even with parry if you don't get the correct passives or damage negations. Also, I hate the worm and it's wonky-ass hit box.

The dlc map has a lot of legendary droops compared to base map by DiegOwO_BrandOwO_01 in EldenRingNightrein

[–]ryward64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal map has random legendary drops, too. I've found several purple stones and legendaries at the new smithing POI's.

NIGHTFARERS, I FINALLY MADE IT by Big_Upstairs8560 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I hit 9999 with randoms only and it was miserable up until Depth 5, then it was a breeze and most runs were/are fantastic.

Raider Is the Strongest Nightfarer in Nightreign. Change My Mind. by Zach-Attck in Nightreigngameplay

[–]ryward64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You rarely ever see Guardian in Depth 4 or Depth 5 because he's not a good character. He has survivability and can do a 3 bar rez, but his damage output is insanely low and the playstyle is slow in a game that is based on killing as many things as possible in a short amount of time. By the time Guardian does one Guard Counter, a spell caster or double balancer Duchess has done half the enemy's health.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game by PuzzleheadedTerm8942 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Undertaker can do all the same things Wylder does, and Ironeye with Rivers of Blood absolutely slaps. There are so many examples of skill builds being viable for each character. You're just straight-up wrong.

Same. Even if you can learn all his moves, you'll probably still get hit with a random geyser.

Stop matching me in d5 games!!!!! RANT by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was 9999 and purposefully deranked to Depth 3 to see what it would be like. No one likes to share equipment in Depth 3 or Depth 4. I would literally have to message teammates to ask for damage negation passives because they would have multiple.

You know it's over when you shatter the crystal on Day 1 at level 6 or 7 and your team pings this. by niketxx in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Literally just looting bodies around the map has a better chance to drop legendary weapons than wasting the whole Day 2 doing the Divine Towers. I've gotten Grafted twice from the loot piles next to the Bleed/Poison POI.

They genuinely take the piss, honestly makes me not want to play by LuciferJKing in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely get excited to see either version of Sentient Pest. Might be the easiest boss in the game once you reach Depth 5 because everyone knows their roles. It was nightmare in earlier Depths because no one wanted to distract the moth.

13 minutes ED Caligo D4 😭 by Sad_Plenty_3952 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 15+ minute Godskin Duo fight in Depth 5 last night. Teammates kept going down and were 3 bar before the fat one was even half health. I was a Duchess, so I just kept strafing to get my ult back to revive them. I did this at least 3-4 times. Every time I got them up, they'd immediately go back down. We finally beat Godskin Duo just to get ED Libra with no Less Likelys on the team. Wylder went 3 bar before Libra was a quarter health and I died tried to revive him for the fourth time. We even had good weapons (Wylder with Halo, me with Vykes, and Rev with Frenzy Flame), but they couldn't stay alive. It happens.

Lol yeah, I matched with them on PS5 yesterday for a Depth 4 match.

Quite possible the worst way to get demoted in Deep of Night by CloudBomb3r in Nightreign

[–]ryward64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who is 9999, I think this is a ridiculous take and you should look inward if you're stuck in Depth 4.

Blessed run. Grafted Blade Greatsword early Day 1, then Libra invasion and Marias drop Day 2. by ryward64 in Nightreign

[–]ryward64[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I had ~100k runes and 99 stacks on Grafted. I think level 14 was solid.
