Magic/Divine (and Enchanted/Occult) are very strong if you keep low str/dex but go high int/fai. If you've already got high str/dex for whatever you want to yield, then chances are magic enchanted and stuff will probably not out-pace your normal+15.

So for Example Lightning/Fire Weapons are only good if I build my Character mostly around Vit/End? Why would I ever want to do that?

The most annoying part of the Game was all the enviroment: Tomb of the Giants where you could not see the Hand before your Eye, Sen's Fortress where I died like 15 times or fucking Blighttown. -_-

37hrs and a Level80 Char is enough prep for DS2 for now, I guess. Too bad I played the first Half of the Game in 30fps and without HD Textures. The Game is 10 times better in 60fps.


Why play ds1 to try out the controls for ds2? why not just play ds1 because it is amazing and then play ds2 because it is amazing.

Because lightning and fire weps still deal a good amount of dmg without any point investment. You can dump everything into vit and endurance which means youll be insanely tanky.

you can wear massively heavy armor and still light-roll with enough investment into END, otherwise you'd be sacrificing a lot more damage to basically be super tanky. it's a lot more of a PvP thing to do that though since you can get away with fat-rolling and just getting a good shield in PvE.

No, even 40 endurance+ havels+rofap+mask of the father only allows you to wear medium armor+weapon+shield when you want to stay under 25%, you need to put a lot more into endurance if you want to wear heavy armor and be able to fast roll

Are there 3 sorts of roll?
I stay below 50% to have a fast roll.

Oh, didnt know that. Is 25% worth the effort because the below 50% roll is fast enough to evade anything.

It has some more invincibility frames I think (just few tho), it's mostly relevant with the dark grain ring that allows to roll in backflips, gaining some more iframes and faster roll recovery if I remember correctly.

yeah the grain ring makes your roll crazy fast by reducing recovery frames as well as bumping up invincibility frames from like 8 to 12 i think? which is pretty huge.

I think it's 12 to 14. It's recovery frames that goes from 12 to 8. Well I haven't checked tho :o

Dark Souls 2 PC Version Preview. Seems like a solid Port, but nothing spectacular. Better Textures and SSAO.

Really annoyed the reviewer wasn't giving M+K a fair shot. A lot of what I'm wondering about is whether the game is M+K playable. I don't do controllers, never have, and really don't feel like buying one for one game. DS1 could be played M+K, if you used the lockon fix (or just never locked on), but it was painful. The fact that mouse seems to still control camera rather than reticle is unfortunate.

It has become something of a meme in the Dark Souls community. The Giant Dads (Giant's Armor + father mask) with those Chaos Zweihanders became a thing for whatever reason, probably because of that video.

It's funny to see one time. I mean no one is watching it for actual PvP advice I hope, haha.
