Still can't defeat those three tall guardians in the Bastille

In some ways it's harder than the Ornstein/Smough fight of way back, since you don't really have pillars to use as cover. Once you've learned their movesets, finish off the first on the platform. If I remember right, the second one shows up on top for a little bit before the third does. Whack that one a bit, and drop down. Unfortunately a lot of surviving the fight downstairs is backpedaling and waiting for an open spot. This one takes some patience. The move where they slam down their staff usually leaves them open for a while - if the other's not close-by, try taking a shot. If that doesn't help, try here.

I have 6 giant souls right now. Still can't defeat those three tall guardians in the Bastille and the lizard/lion one on the other side of Heides area.

 

What? Really?

 

You do summon the Pilgrim Bellclaire for this fight right? I found that staying on the high ground and letting the guardians come for you is the best tactic as any class especially a sorcerer/pyromancer so long as you can defeat each one in time.

I still can't summon anyone (or anything), I've had friends around the world like the masked woman who has a big hat and gave me some stuff but no one joined me so far.

I hope you're not using a sword. The Sentinels is one of those boss fights where your physical damage type will make all the difference. If you still have the mace, I say get it as upgraded as you can (assuming you haven't already) and use that. Don't jump off the platform while fighting the first one or you'll aggro the other two. Once you kill the first one, the second one will walk over and jump up on the platform (while doing an attack so be sure to stand back when it jumps up). You have some time to get some free damage on it before the third one starts coming over. When the third one is about to join the party on the platform, that's your cue to jump off. I'm not sure what element they're weak to but spamming lightning spear is probably a safe bet.

 

Also, when they do their spinning attack your safest bet is to block it, even if it means eating guard-break stun. Unless of course your equip burden is light enough (and your agility is high enough) so you can roll far enough out of the way.

 

Pilgrim Bellclaire is an NPC phantom, and if you're human you can find her summon sign in one of the jail cells before the boss fog.

How is this game on the PC.  I tried to play the first one but the controls were horrendous and made it impossible to play so I never finished it.

I and probably pretty much everyone else played it with a controller.

Using a keyboard/mouse is more tolerable than the first.  But...melee combat experiences input lag or delays when swinging a weapon.  Essentially a controller is mandatory if you don't want to fiddle with 3rd party programs that minimize response times.

I think I'm the only one who can use M&K better than a controller even in action-y games like DS2!

it's more or less fine on pc in terms of controls. however 2 moves are very hard to do, so i made a macro on my sensei. however these two attacks are important in pvp only.

 

as for ruin sentinels. well on your first playthrough i guess everybody with a sword can have problems with them, however with bastard sword i did more or less well. at least first sentinel died before 2nd jumped on this platform.

 

but again on your second playthrough you can just buy a cat's ring and jump all the way down to the gutter and pick a club there. with this club you can wreck sentinels very quick.

Dark Souls 2 is getting a major calibration which is changing the values of weapons, spells and miracles as well as fixing a few bugs.

Many weapons and spells are affected here.

 

Also, I beat the Pursuer on the roof he lands on before his boss area as my third character. He didn't even get a hit on my character and strafing to his side constantly makes it impossible for him to hit you.

I hope that calibration isn't for the worst.

3 Months have passed since Dark Souls 2 released... but I'm staying optimistic. Gamer's rage levels are finally starting to recover. Maybe...everything will be alright.

The last time I played I encountered the headless snaky lady boss. It was poisonous all over the hall. So I guess it's a 'never can beat' kind of boss. And it seems all the good forging stuff is after you kill her... :unsure:

 

Also I killed the three guardians using Mace+4, dodge, magic weapon, proper rings and full health. Then after reaching other two bonfires I reached the other section of Bastille where you go underground by an elevator and there is some slow hideous monsters. Past them is a tall, very flexible boss with a Long Sword who is also quite a champion of killing me!

LOL just saw that today.

 

As for your first sentence, DkS2 has generally been successful as far as both critics and fans are concerned. There's disappointment but not the DA2 type disappointment. The very same people who critic DkS2 still play it ironically.

I miss the Bloodshield from the first game.

 

Fear me!

Level 108 and super strong... well somehow!

Pffft, I stopped playing when I reached level 333. Now I'm just waiting for the DLC.

It's an attack on titan reference. >.> Dark Souls 2 doesn't necessarily revolutionize the franchise like the last two, but I enjoyed the hell out of it, and they changed enough behind the hood to make it feel fresh. And the budget is an awful lot higher.

Garry's Mod - the gift that keeps giving.

Fear me! Level 108 and super strong... well somehow!

Lemme know when you beat the game, I'll have this on standby. XD

Is it just me, or is this game ridiculously easy compared to the previous two souls games? I was ill for a few days and made a second character that I got to lvl 180 in a week. Wasn't aiming for a no death run, but I only died about a dozen times(usually by falling off cliffs). I could never pull that off in DkS1.

I think it's around the same difficulty if you ask me. I managed to beat the first game with only 15 deaths once (three of which involved dying from falls). This was as my fourth character which was a cleric build (so I had good defense, ATK and healing/regenerating miracles not to mention that at this point, I obviously knew what to expect and I was more cautious deliberately on this playthrough).

 

I never understood that "thousands of deaths" statement. In my first playthroughs for both Dark Souls games, I only died around 70 times. I can only see a person literally dying hundreds of times if they're really really bad at the game or they've been playing PvP a lot (in which case you will die hundreds of times as well kill hundreds of other players). Concerning that, I rose to the top of the Forest Hunter covenant twice in the first game (which requires 80 kills) and I killed a fair amount of other players in the Oolacille arena, Oolacille township and co-op, so I think I have around 250 player kills for my PvP character and probably over 400-500 deaths in PvP as him (although I haven't played any Souls PvP since last year, I think it's overrated and got bored of it after a few months).

 

Anyways, all I know is, is that with any Souls game, your character build determines the difficulty. When I played the Artorias expansion for the first time, I made a new character who ended up being a terrible build and I died so many times as them, even throughout the vanilla game. I make another new character for the expansion, ensure their build is good and suddenly there is no enemy that stands a chance against me again.

I died a lot and I'm just at the middle of the game. The tomb on Majula's cliff says 450 death worldwide!

My deaths were because of venturing fearlessly into unknown areas, trying to kill bosses when I lacked the strength, falling, slaying by surprise attacks. In order of the most to the least.

 

Now I have enough "power" to use giant clubs and greatswords. Plus my faith is high enough that my lightning spell does like 400 damages. Still my stamina sucks and can't do much after three strikes.

Use YouTube's caption system on the video and set it to English. The author has translated it himself so it's completely coherent in English, it's not Google translate. Hopefully in future, some people volunteer to do an English dub as it's a series that's ongoing. The second episode came out yesterday but won't be translated by the author just yet.

 

 

Apparently Patches was actually going to be in DkS2.

Why did the bastards keep him out? If he's not in Bloodborne then heads will roll.

 

So two more days till DkS2 DLC.

 

Anyone getting it? I still haven't decided.
