skill is the best attribute in this game.
Sure.
>>750631848>>750631969literally the two best weapons in the game, nothing else even compares
>>750631848If you can reliably execute viscerals yeah, but the Saif is butt garbage.
>>750631848what game retard
>>750631848>no extra damage against beasts Mogged by saw cleaver as usual
>>750632183Demon's Souls 2
>>750632182Saif is kino though against Kos
>>750631848For me it's the humble cane.
>>75063184899 Arcane
Sup fellow boomers.
>>750632232not nearly as kino as the beast claw with laurences rune
>>750632271A transsexual squid typed this post.
>>750632182I think the saif is the best weapon in the game for DPS and movement
I only use the Kirkhammer.
>first time playing>pick axe>never use anything elseDon't hear much about this beauty but it has such a good moveset along with stupid rally potential. And the damage is great too.
BLT mogs
>>750632494BB needed more early weapon variety, it's so easy to stick with the axe/cleaver/spear LHB the whole game.
For me? It's Bloodtinge. The best attribute in Bloodborne.
>>750632494>>750632556also doesn't help by the time you find other weapons, you've already levelled up your starter weapon way past what the weapons you found have.
>>750632574>>750632508the initial idea is cool, but in practice is pretty boring. The chikage has a boring moveset and relies on R1 spam with good gems, the bloodletter is really cool but thats really about it. The bowblade is a skill/bloodtinge hybrid so its not really a bloodtinge weapon. Strength has the whirligig saw and amygdylan arm which are my favourite , skill has church pick, saif, saw spear, rakyo, blades of mercy, burial blade, all really fun weapons.
>>750632556its designed that way. any weapon is viable. there isn't tiers like other games.
>>750632494I never understood why people hyped up the axe so much. It doesn't even have bonus damage against beasts, which are basically 90% of all difficult enemies in the game.
>>750633105>Muh damage bonuses!
>>750633105It doesn't need that bonus.Untricked axe kinda just sucks outside of good stagger.The hype is all about the trick-mode. Spin to win is a problem solver like barely anything else in this game. Massive reach, still fairly quick for its size, good stagger, a mix of horizontal and vertical slashes, flexible moveset. Great rallying potential because blunt. This weapon is great. Basically the best halberd in Fromsoft games, just like the LHB is the best greatsword in Fromsoft games.
>>750633105the tricked R2 is that good. the rally potential is really good too
>>750632450dont you have to hit enemies with a certain part of the weapon otherwise the damage gets penalized? it seems pretty bad because of that
>>750633307No, it's only an AOE that does a small amount of damage, as a total bonus to the weapon's hitbox. If you only hit with the AOE, then yeah, it does shit damage, but that's better than a total whiff.
>>750631848>Weapon that you can only use during NG+, or if you just so happen to get the true final boss and maybe have some unexplored areas stillI love Bloodborne, but the way it distributed weapons was annoying.
>>750632450>unga mode when I need big damage and stagger>sord mode when I need fast damage and rallysimple as
>>750633029no no anon, the point of bloodtinge is to pump that shit as high as it goes and oneshotting fucking everything with your big dick +10 Bone Marrow Ashed Cannon.
>>750633365All Souls games are like that, but at least in Bloodborne's case you can get it early from Chalice Dungeons.
My fav weapon is Luigi's Sword, Beast Claws and whirligig saw are cool too
>>750631848Started yesterday playing with the hunter axe, is it normal I'm steamrolling everything?Just get correct distance and charge spam to death.
>>750633064Yeah, but there's a masssive difference in when you get weapons>Oh i want to use the reiterpallasch!>literal endgame weapon
>>750633847Anon doiscovers BB has no difficulty whatsoever beyond like a couple bosses in the dlc.
>>750634191Well, I didn't expect much difficulty, except for my first one (Dark Souls 1), I've done all the others pretty easily and with different builds.I'm playing it blind too, currently have to beat that one bone wolf boss with thunder, don't know if I'm underleveled, he can two shot me (only tried it once before going to sleep).
>>750631848>DLC weapon
>>750634387>>750633847Yeah the Hunter Axe is straight up one of the strongest weapons in the game. Just spin2win ezmodo
>>750631848arcane is technicallywell technically vitality due to how vials scale
>>750631848why did you post a picture of my wife?
>>750632613I never liked this part of fromsoft's design because if you want to actually use more than 3 weapons in a playthrough you're forced to grind for upgrade mats and souls, or settle for only upgrading them halfway. It sucks and it's always sucked
>>750634191Bloodborne is easy if you treat it what it is, an rpg. Instead people desperately want it to be an action game rhan have a meltdown whem they get 1 tapped 40 levels below everything. They added dungeons for more grinding opportunities.Your defense stats increase wiyh every level up, and they are incredibly strong. I went from being 3 shot by the cainhurat boss to like 5-6 shkr with just 10 levels into my damage stats just because of those defense stats you get on top like idk the math but it like checks enemy attack stat or whatever and really pumps up your damage reduction if you surpass a value.
Chalice dungeons fucking suck and we're a mistake. I wish all of the loot was just in the main game which desperately needs more drops anyways.Like variant weapons are just in the 2nd half and those normal ones are pushed a bit earlier All the tier 3 runes hidden around the world
>>750635159The chalice dungeons turned into the dungeons of ER.
>>750635159Or a material could be used ti swap to the variants and that material was later in the game
>>750635195Yeah and the copy paste dungeons are the worse part of elden ring.Souls games mechanics are too simple for dungeon crawling to really work. They would need to make it like party based with roles with classes or something which lol now its just a different game
>>750631848Is that what boosts the riposte damage? I don't remember anymore. If it is then yeah, it's fucking busted. I feel like I cheated when I played the game, my ripostes were like a fucking nuke. I RAPED Orphan of Kos' ass but got raped by Ludwig because I couldn't just parry his ass consistently.
>>750635302Skill and the claw mark rune
>>750635003it's worse in BB since if you don't go to chalice dungeons there's only 2 blood rocks per NG cycle
>>750635291Thinking about it tho, a dungeon crawler only souls game with forced coop of a 4-6 man party and more defined class roles like support magics and skills wod probably be a lot of fun, would probably work a lot better than the weird battle royal spin off or pvp bloodborne lmao
>>750635380Yeah I remember going all in on riposte because I'm a parrytard. Stacking Skill, Clawmark rune and the other rune that heals you when you do a riposte. It was fucking awesome.
>>750632450The moveset isn't fun
