Well you learn past NG+ that the most effective way to minimize damage is to not take damage. Pretty much everything kills you in one hit anyway once you get to NG+7. The way you do that is wear little to no armor so you can roll faster. You want to aim for less than 25% burden for the quickest movement when not naked. Then you just need to learn attack patterns and how to avoid them. Four Kings is pretty straight forward when it comes to their attacks. For their grab attack you have to go against instinct. When you see the animation start you have to unlock, run and roll toward the right. When you're pegging away up close, remember to roll to the side where the swing is coming from since it's pretty much a 180 degree swing.Hell yea! Feels awesome when you get a fight down to where you don't take a single hit
I have seen videos of four kings where they go in with no health and don't get hit once. Like... wth! I clearly just don't know the fight well enough.
It's been taken down again?!
I would stick with the 30 FPS lock. Unlocked FPS not only introduces physics glitches, but also changes gameplay mechanics around for the worse. For example, the parry window becomes much shorter and you cannot jump as far.
it wasn't the jump itself but the guy lobbing flaming boulders at you
The classes are only about starting equipment and stats, really. In the grand scheme of things Knight is probably the second worst class to start with after Deprived. After the Gargoyles you have the options available to mold your character however you like regardless of starting class. People generally pick Pyromancer to start because it is SL1 and has the best stat budget available.
Indeed. I failed to realize this until after I had put a combined 1000 hours into the game between PC and console. One day I just suddenly had the thought that I should be able to kill all the giants and just went for it. It's too bad he respawns after a Bonfire, though. Funny fact: I have never played through the game as an archer.
New patch means newly compiled executable, which means different memory addresses to hook.There was a patch for the game this morning that broke DSFix...or at least broke something with my game and DSFix is the only mod I have installed. I'm sure it'll be back up and running by noon
Blighttown was rough, but to me it was really only hard in that opening area (like in the video). The giants, crazed rushing guys, and stupid poison dart shooters all back to back was hellish. Once you get out of that section, it's not too horrible. Plus, that's usually right around when you finally "get" the game and finally start to get much better at it.
