Is it worth it taking END to 30 or beyond? |
i would stop leveling anything in ng as soon as you get diminished returns, as in only 1 point per level.
putting 1 point into end is a waste of a soul level, when you could put 4 points into str or dex.
try to get agl close to 100 if you can, for safer evasion. |
I have Agility at 97 right now, so I guess I'm close to reaching that desired level. Anyway, I have END @ 20 and I read that diminished returns start right there, only 1 pt. stamina after level 20. So I guess I shouldn't be wasting more souls on it. |
not atm, use the souls for another stat you need.

On consoles they got a fix for the Shrine of Winter door not opening regardless of meeting the soul memory or boss souls requirements (including that orb thing people miss), so I hope this fix comes to PC soon. Im basically sitting here with my dick in my hands because this game is borked.

Yeah, parry then ballista to the face is the way to go.
Usually I don't take 'shortcuts' in boss battles, but I found this one incredibly tedious.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

What kind of cheap crap was this?
 Spoiler: | The snake queen, I kept dying even with common fruit + poisonbite ring (or whatever it's name). Had to use google to find out "the trick"... FFS just leave a small hint there you assholes, I passed by that spot earlier and found it a bit strange.
Fuck you FROM / FROM B team / whoever, grab that lit torch and shove it up your asses. |
I can't remember anything like this on the original, some obscure bullshit that you had to use to make a boss fight possible. Am I wrong or just not remembering right?

I tried autohotkey and it did nothing for me. My biggest gripe right now is the mouse lag. I can't get past the beginning of the forest level after dying twice already.

If one person actually thinks about their build and makes a character at SL150 with certain skills they want, their soul level will stay the same but as they keep playing the game their soul memory will get larger and larger. Other people who might have decided to not stop leveling up will still be in the same soul memory range. They will be matched with each other and it won't be a fair fight!

Yup, started a new game as soon I found out about this too 
I just didn't use a ton of souls, which resulted in them being gone eventually... and then I found out and felt like dumbass

One of the few spots where I had to consult a walkthrough as well (the other one was for the fact that you have to talk 7-8 times to a particular merchant to advance with the main quest, total bullshit). Yeah, they pulled some cheap tricks with this one, just for the sake of artificially making it harder.

Didn't you have to do some obscure bullshit to get to the dlc in the 1st game?

True, but even then if you happened to visit the area a second time and then free that NPC later on you would have a clear enough starting point.
This has neither, or at least nothing I did pick up.

Damn the darklurker. Boss is fine enough in itself, but needing to use effigy's for each time you want to try kind of gives you no room for practice.

Or can you invade people in NG, while you are at NG+? |
bonfire ascetic
makes the area NG+, so items respawn as well (or spawn different items in NG+)

It's great design imo because it gives you an interesting choice.
Farm an easy boss, get an item early (or twice, or more), but it comes at a price so you can't use it lightly.
Also NG++ is not much harder than NG+. Biggest jump is from NG to NG+ so having an area in NG++ mode in NG+ is no big deal. It's only slightly harder.

does ng++ change up the mobs again and add new loot or does it just increase the difficulty of ng+?
