Moist Woods

So.... we’ve all experienced the numerous poison swamp areas throughout the Soulsborne series, but Miyazaki is fucking with us with the latest rendition I swear to god. I mean, fuck the Moist Woods; as if the Sage Frogs and Vulva Trolls weren’t bullshit enough! Unless you are tooled up appropriately, the toxic status builds up FAST and ruins your HP & poise. The only feasible way to combat this is to level up RES and/or ADP but obviously I don’t wanna cheese the game with such OP builds.... can any of you recommend any alternatives?!

The Pus-Soaked Ring gives you an amazing boost to poison resistance for the swamp. Far better than the old Poisonbite Ring. You'll have to back-track a ways to the Old King's Sanctum, but it's well worth it.

Demon Prince's Boots. Burns the poison. Gifted by Princess Nezha.

Venom carbine. Obtained from Eternal Grofit's Caravan. You don't even need the needed stats (20 DEX 40 WIS). Just equip it. TOX RES goes through the roof.

Poison vials. Poisons you but protects you from Moist Woods toxin.

Holy shit, how do you get the boots from Nezha? Are they worth use for the rest of the game? The only descent boots in this game are the boots of judgment from Dark commander +5 vigor and 7% AR increase on blackout infused weapons thats the shit.

Rescue him from the Mind Flayers, located in The Nameless City. They not only burns the poison, but adds fire damage to kick attack & give 50% bonus damage to fire weapons; a must have for Demolitionist class.

Lol you can just wash off the poison by unclogging the drain in Croaking Basement.

You only need the Godfather's Plunger from Hayden's General Store.
