Anyone else on these forums pick up Batman: Arkham City the other day and feel extremely disappointed by the combat? I had arkham asylum and I know it was a button masher too, but playing Arkham City back to back with Dark Souls makes Batman feel incredibly frustrating and dull, combat-wise. The presentation of the batman game is amazing im not knocking the game itself (I love the stealthy takedowns and flying around the room to pick guys off). I just think its a testament to how sick Dark Souls' combat is.

Hell, I even felt bad when I killed Priscilla. She seemed so nice and was cute too.
I also felt sad when I fought Maiden Astraea in Demon Souls. Basically she would suicide after you kill her knight...

Me too -- the first time through the painted world, when I finally got to her and she told me to leave, I just jumped off and went away. I went back later, killed her to see what I'd get, then felt really bad when all she dropped was her crappy soul. Would have left her alone if I'd known :-(
Sif was beautiful, too. I didn't mind getting killed by her over and over.

The point is to chop off Priscilla's tail and get her dagger

Eh, the dagger sucks too :-p Wish her scythe were more usable, looks pretty sweet.

Her dagger is pretty good, bleed for 50% of their hp. Although the problem is her bleed is only 20 per hit compared to normal 30 or 33.
Her scythe is pretty good too, uber bleed.

You'll need to probably upgrade normal stuff much higher to beat the Drake sword. Usually people turn weapons into Lighting/Fire/Chaos or +15 normal if they have a weapon enchant.

Doesn't the scythe's bleed effect you, though? The Japanese wiki said it only caused the user to bleed, which fits with the flavor text, but I haven't made it myself, so not sure.

It causes you to bleed after 6 consecutive attacks if you have no bleed resist gear on. The bloodbite ring + shield are EXTREMELY useful if you're using Priscilla dagger or Lifehunt scythe. I'd reccomend the latter of the two. Wide arc'ing move sets are awesome for PvP.

Welp, I just rang the second bell and killed Ceaseless Discharge, then went through Dark Root to kill the Butterfly and Hydra.. now it's time for Sif.

His mechanics seem super simple and you can even shield block most of his attack.. however I can't seem to kill him! Still using an upgraded Halberd and I can't seem to get enough damage on him without draining my stamina completely each attack rotation. ..if only that stupid Black Knight before Hydra would've dropped his Halberd for me. Are there any tricks other than rolling under his charge to get damage in? It would probably be easier if I used a weapon which had an overhead swing..

Also: I've read about players trading directly but have yet to come around any way that it's supported by the game. Am I missing something or is it only in NG+?
I have a very unique name.

It's been like 2 weeks since I killed him but if I recall correctly you roll towards him when you see him about to slash from your left to your right. That's his strongest attack so if you can roll past it you'll have plenty of stamina to either block subsequent attacks or land some of your own.

No. If you die twice you lost your precious souls and humanity though.

Well, after dying like 3 times total in NG+ the 4 kings have handed me my ass like 5 straight times. That increased HP changes everything.

:p I just bought this game. Getting my ass kicked in pvp by people that seem to do like 5 times my damage :x.

Anyone know if the greataxe is still as good as in demons souls? This game's roll->r1 moves seem to be awkward but I havent tried the greataxe yet. Or whats a good heavy weapon?

Also people seem to be using shields way more than in demons souls.

Ugh that sucked. I've been playing a pyromancer, and I reached the depths. I come across a pyromancer stuck in a barrel, and I was excited because I thought I finally found a pyromancer trainer. So I swing at the barrel to release him ..... and it did damage. I decide to kill him to see if he'll at least drop something nice, but nope. Look him up, and yeah he was one of the trainers. And this right after I lost all my humanity and souls fighting the carpa demon.

Sad town.

Just hitting him doesn't mean he would be pissed right away, unless you did enough damage. Even if you did manage do piss him off, you don't need to kill him. Go pay for your sins through the Gargoyle Bell Tower NPC and he'll be good as new.

Yeah I hit him hard enough to make him go hostile. Unfortunately I didn't think the whole paying for your sins thing until after I killed him, because I'm a nooby at the game. Not that I would have been able to afford it for awhile anyway haha.

So I've been thinking about starting to PvP abit in this game after completing it, is there a certain soul lvl people stay on in this game? Kind of like 120-125 or w/e it was in Demon's Souls.
