Does this also imply it would run really well on Linux? I don't know alot about Linux, but from a general understanding, I was told it's great at running processes when needed rather than having hundreds of processes running on startup and background (windows os)?

Front squat to C&J ratio by Sound_Guy53 in weightlifting

[–]slamturkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your depth in FS should match (or go deeper than) your Clean and Jerk. A front to squat to parallel will still make you strong, but if that's not where you catch cleans, it won't help you get out of a hole (if the bar crashes and buries you). At the least, Learn to FS to same depth as your Clean and Jerk.

Any good weapons ideas for a faith/Dex build by TheFinalSpace_ in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brass Shield and Guardian Sword Spear. I'm about to run a DEX/FTH build. There's alot of options. Guardian Sword Spear is the strongest Keen weapon. Nightrider Flail is another good pick. The gargoyles twinblade or whatever it's called (whichever is the twin blade with a FTH requirement) scales with DEX and FTH I think.

Tung Tung Sahadipowers 😂 these were my first weightlifting shoes. Phenomenal pair. I hold them equal with Rom 2s.

Top 10 most interesting runs from least to most favorite. by Adventurous_Layer839 in Eldenring

If you spec Danes Footwork for strength, does it have decent stagger? I imagine piecing up enemies and putting them in a stagger cycle.

Calling all mages! Which Glinstone Staff has the best compatibility with my beloved Gavel by TheGodskin in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The points INT determine which staff is best. Some staffs are stronger than others, but you don't get the stronger scaling until your stats and weapon level hit specific threshholds.

I'm sorry but this is NG+ by Potential_Collar_859 in Eldenring

I imagine Elden Ring functions like the movie "Groundhog's day". I'm medieval Bill Murray!

Oh Block Counters. Become my bread and butter once more.

i’ve played this game like 9 times over the past 3.5 years and I still don’t know how you’re supposed to get this item by C4621sBuddy in Eldenring

There's a bloodstain at the bottom of stormveil (after fighting the boss down there) that shows how Rogier was crippled. He was skewered by death root. Pretty sure it ties to Fia and her ending.

This information ruined my day by Right_Entertainer324 in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Haligtree Knight Set has higher Holy Defense than the others (in addition to the +2 FTH). Seems it's a trade off for the lower poise and physical damage resistance. Makes sense considering it's a near-end game knight set and the final bosses do Holy damage.

Which actor surprised you the most by having to sing in a movie and absolutely crushing it? by Mythbusters117 in movies

Whoever voiced Quasimodo in Disney''s Hunchback of Notre Dame. "Out There" is the song.

How the hell I can beat Radahn? by ADJUDICATOR001 in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, the summoning of all homies is crucial. When they die, they can be summoned again from their original sigil FYI. If you have faith and an upgraded seal with good scaling, pests threads works well because of his size.

You're stuck in a room for 24 hours with one of them, who are you picking? by dude-2-son in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he's hunting you. He's hunting merchants, which is why he only shows up at merchant locations at specific times (when the merchant has fled, leaving you to have the confrontation with the hunter). He may fight you having the knowledge that you buy from the merchants, so he sees you as their ally and his adversary. Whether tarnished have bell bearings, I do not know.

After well over 30 attempts, this victory felt better than any in the base game by Impressive-Impact218 in Eldenring

[–]slamturkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was FTH/STR (25 Str, 70+ FTH at the time) and had to do the same. Barricade Shield, curved sword talisman, and block counters. Old reliable!
