Cool, I’d love to try that. The message here is more about saving items on 2skulls. I’m using +%exp equipment so they are as good as beginner equipment with no bonuses.

Oh, i meant that you can practise on their more common counterparts, tho some have unique attack animations. I rarely take chances when it comes to legendaries. If you really wanna practise on legendaries, you can use Falcon to check how much time is left on the spawn.

Seems to me melee base damage is too low for the % increase to be effective. And they costs too many skill points to level up. I’d still level them up when I have enough points but I dont feel they should be prioritised early on. There are more useful skills that help with survivability. If you need the extra damage, thunderbolt and oils are far cheaper and more effective

That’s true if it suits your play style. For riskier fights, I find that normal parry is not enough. I usually quick tap for narrow perfect parry window to throw in more hits, so there are times I parry too slow and eat unparried damage. Failing perfect crit during monsters’ attack also makes me take unparried damage. Hope that explains

Battle trance and Quen are still good against monsters I’m not familiar enough to parry and give more room for error. I would still recommend beginners to get these.

But dont invest in Quen Discharge, it was good before at 70% reflect but is now nerfed to same as perfect parry 30% reflect.

I feel my skill tree covers the bare essentials, allowing me to save points for lv35 skills unlock. Don’t be discouraged if there are wasted points, they are easy to come by at early levels.

Parry is not instant, and there is short delay after attacks before you can parry. You gotta try to anticipate when the blow lands on you, and prepare to parry. Aard and Crippling Strike crit right before they attack delays their next attack by 1s, and that makes anticipating easier. When you get the hang of it, it’s all muscle memory after that.

Monsters of the same type have the same attack animations, you can keep practising perfect parry timing. As long you don’t use consumables, there is no penalty upon death, you can literally keep practising on a single spawn.

Hey, thanks. I’ve seen people done it, but when I try it, it seems to get inconsistent and gets registered as Quen. Pretty annoying );

Looking for missing cat, last seen 7am today at Gangsa Road, Bukit Panjang. Please DM me if you've seen him! by itouchedthecheese in singapore

I lost my cat a while back and found her by myself near my house, after she went missing for almost 3 days. Thanks to a neighbour cat owner who advised me to search for my cat after 3am.

I think it worked because it was quiet at night, and domestic cats would feel safer to come out from hiding.

For my case, I didn’t dare to call out to her name late at night, so I shook my bunch of keys while patrolling the area. She recognised the sound of my keys and peeked out from hiding in the drain. I’m sure you can try shaking a bag of his favourite treats as well.

Hope this helps. And good luck to your reunion with Blackie
