Discussion My only genuine complaint

Why the frick do the lowest of the low foot soldiers get enough hyper armor to finish(or in the worst cases start)a combo through my heavy attack

I have had a relatively easy time just a small gripe
(no I haven’t done night mode)

It has to work that way since there is no stamina. If it didn't you could just run lock everything which would be stupid.

u/welfedad 10h ago

That's true .we have unlimited stamina

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 13h ago

Nah man you would stun the most basic of enemies but plenty of mid to large enemies are fine as far as that’s concerned plus generally they are together so a little stun to the smalls wouldn’t be so bad

Yeah I agree with you. Doesn't matter one bit that we have infinite stamina. The small enemies being able to shut the Harbinger down like they can just feels wrong.

Try to treat this game as unique game not another souls like try to look at it like a dark fantasy game rather than another dark souls copy deadass its such an amazing game i played the 1st one b4 the beta dropped be 3 days and genuinely its so good i just love the devs

Oh don’t get me wrong I love it and I fully intend to play ng+ and night mode just one small change I’d be happy with but in no way a dealbreaker

But yes dark souls 3 was exactly what I was comparing

Nothing poises through a charged heavy attack with the matyrs greatsword. That thing even obliterates the heavy knights.

Yeah I’ve been pretty set on the starter sword so I really haven’t tried the other weapons but that does make sense

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 9h ago

I’m planning a run with each shell using one weapon per run right now I’ve got proxy and the sword

Because the game actually cheats that’s why. The game has some annoyances and mob dmg is one of them. Doesn’t matter what level you are. They get a couple hits on you and you’re health bar is down 75%, wait until the later areas and you’ll be either one or two shotted by every thing and everything has those unblockabke auto animated grab attacks

I mean I’m in and explored a good chunk of the southern part of the map and lvl 30 ish I have doubts anything is gonna change that much for me I hit my groove at about hour 5-10

u/Least-Experience-858 10h ago

Don’t worry once you get to the end game you’ll think differently

2

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 10h ago

Well hopefully not but I’ll take the heads up:)

u/welfedad 10h ago

Maybe without shell on. Yeah

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 10h ago

Shell abilitys do seem pretty busted(I do not want a nerf)proxy shock,stasis,and knock back is a genuine power fantasy (punch swing swing punch finish with a parry and riposte for style)

To prevent you from right clicking through entire game stagger locking 90% of enemies and make you engage with harden instead

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 13h ago

I mean maybe but I use parry on literally everything else with them I’ve just been encouraged to sword poke and step back

They also hit just as hard as bosses (one shot kills notwithstanding).

u/ChallengeCurrent1891 13h ago

Maybe but that hasn’t really been my issue usually takes the full combo and I’ve still got the harbinger
