I fucking loathed that fight. I hung off to the side in this weird little small square area and was able to plink one with arrows a few times and then wail on him a bit before running away when the second one aggro'd in. The fight would be tolerable if it wasn't impossible to tell what the other was up to while dealing with one of them. Add in the absurd hit box on the phase change ground pound shockwave and you've got a recipe for pain.
On a flat surface like a field or even something more constrained like a bridge, as long as it is flat, I think the fight could be fun. Those fucking stairs though. With OG tree sentinel my main source of frustration was the terrain as well, when I finally smashed him it was outside of the church where it's relatively flat, then it was kind of fun.
It was pride and hubris that fueled my desire to kill them both at once and by god I was going to do it.
The haligtree makes me sad, its honestly one of the best looking fantasy levels (the first half) I have ever seen in a video game, but every single enemy is just copy pasted. Plus they have been purposely placed in the most dickish way possible, then elphael looks boring comapred to the first half and just looks like its been recycled from DS3.
I agree the first half looks slightly better but they both look amazing. The first half is like sekiro and the second is ds3's cathedral of the deep but sunny. i love how the tree's in the middle of the ocean too.
How did you like the hands leading up to that point? After couple of gaaah!'s I didn't find them to be much trouble, but I also had my shortbow with fire arrows and the barrage skill that fucked up the hidden ones and my bleed weapons which were super effective. Getting swarmed or cornered was, as always, the problem.
I actually got to Loretta while I was still exploring the map, before I had even beaten Margit. I was too weak to fight the hands at the time, so I just ran past them. Then again, I didn't have much trouble with the other enemies, so maybe I could have taken them if I had tried a bit harder.
Ooooh, I didn't know you could get to Caria without going through Reya Lucaria, that's where I ended up after finishing/exiting Reya and in my mind it was a straight path but I assume I just didn't have the map and got lost again then ended up in the right place by mistake. Just the other day I activated Radahn's rune by bumbling through Caelid looking for a somber smithing stone. I had activated Godrick's rune and was planning to do so with Rennala's to get into Leyndell but had completely blanked on the purpose of divine towers when I was in the caelid one.
Welcome to the simp club.
I think Im gonna go with Ranni's ending just because the thought of getting the fuck out of the lands between for a thousand years is very appealing
Well, some of the crystalians are just conjurations from snails, and given that there are 2 Raya sorcerers just before Loretta who is intrinsically linked with Raya, it's possible when she left Raya she took some others with her.
It's weird but there are a few great spears that have D/C scaling in Faith, but they are Faith/Dex weapons near the end of the upgrade line . The Treespear is probably the easiest its found on the Liurnia side of the broken Bridge east of Stormveil in a chest so you can get it after getting Torrent. It breaks the weapons rule though, It can be buffed with spells and uses Smithing Stones to upgrade, but the Ash of War cannot be changed. Luckily it has a holy weapon buff for a AOW so not totally useless.
