shit post

pls gib advice for paarl

Shit fight. Good thing it's optional.

dogdge, attak

where do i get one of those large hats

Fire and saw weapon, vertical attack work well, head is super weak

fire paper and serrated weapons. Don't lock on

You don't, ever

Fire Saw with beast pellets

Without a reach weapon, it would be pretty hard to beat this boss, try the summon the npc next to the fogwall

MY FUCKING RUNE CHRIST

Anyone know the formula for weapon AR? Do gems affect the total AR (scaling and base damages) or just the base damage, or just the scaling damage?

but i want one

We all do, user, but alas...

speak for yourself. i don't want that gay ass shit.

>he doesn't want the boomhammer hat
>he doesn't want the church guardian hat

Thanks for the help on the living failures

I can't believe that memeblast got me

Glad to help out, though!

Why is there only one female beast patient in the entire hunter's nightmare? You'd think there would be more considering they're stronger and more dangerous than the males.

>they're stronger and more dangerous than the males.
how do you figure?

The giant ones are all females and are capable of granting nearby beasts a health, damage and poison buff. The smaller females have poison powers that the males don't unless buffed as well as a flurry attack.

what are you talking about?

I'm talking about these.

i wasn't aware they were female. interesting.

Where does it say that they're female? I've never heard this before.

reminder to ring your bells!

The official guide, I'm pretty sure. Their lack of fur should be a clear indicator, though.

>fire saw
>pellets

7am to 11am est are they crazy?

i can barely read this tripe.

>11-3

I want to get up for this

It's that time again boys. Anyone up for an FRC spelunk? Your choice where we go, I'll post a pass and glyph if anyone's interested.

Anyone down to help me with FRC Ebrietas?
NG +1, Lv. 106, pass: awoo

I'm down, what level?
Nevermind

Level doesn't matter with passwords, but I'm 98, for what it's worth. So where are we going? Your call, unless someone else says first.

Still going?

I'm still waiting on an answer for where we go. It doesn't matter to me, I have every rune and ritual materials for days.

It's my last day of PS+, so if anybody needs help with anything, I'm down for everything.

Pthemuru?

There we have it! Pass is bbgihyll and the glyph is xzf7hrqn. I'll be beckoning in layer one.

Mind if I bring along a twink?
(not this user )

Is my 10 Vit character welcome?

bevause I'm joining anyway

Witches man, they're fucking cunts.

Fuck

Sorry about that, ringing again.

What's your gem setup and stats? That wheel was doing huge damage

Maria here, I'll hop on my BLT lvl 98, bow blade should take out the witch

Can someone help me with the watchdog? Password is bbg

All nourishings and 20/50 str/arc. It helps that plain Pthumerians have terrible defenses.

No need, that was my fault. More moonbeams would do the trick just as well.

BLT is fun to use anyway, so win-win

Jesus Christ why am I doing so bad right now. I'm real sorry about this, I don't know what the deal is.

Gregor, stand back and spam Blacksky eye at the Witch with me, it's sucicide in there.

youtube.com/watch?v=a01QQZyl-_I

This layer is absolute hell.

This place is awful, why would you do this to me?

Anyone could tell me what's a proper beast claw/wolf build?

I was thinking Military Vet 40/40 and 15 arc with the remaining points on vit and some on end

Guys, let me invade you and I'll open the shortcut door.

If you havnt killed Bell Maidan already.

>This fucking chalice

No that's cheating, we face this threat like Hunters, not cowards.

Well they scale better with STR, so I would go more 50/30 or 50/25. Depends on the level you want to stop at though. You could very well just go 50/50 and then pump VIT

Guys you said the Boomhammer did good damage like the Tonitrus. I have flawless Nourishing gems on my 25 STR/ 50 ARC build and it does less than my poorly gemmed Fire Whirligig.

faggot

It's an str weapon, get blunt gems and 50str/25skl

Oh Gregor. Man, that was painful to watch lol.

>And the boss is fucking Undead Hitbox

Jesus Christ this dungeon.

The hitboxes on this fucking giant, seriously...

I had to restock, have you got him yet?

Nope, waiting in the hallway.

Do many people make lvl 120 builds?

People do, but in the game that only has six stats that's a bit high, don't you think?

You coming? We've been waiting for a while here.

Just never made a build that high level, but wanted to make an ARC/STR that does as much damage as possible (either 40/40 or 50/30)

I've been ringing this whole time :(

Try waiting by the lamp

Can someone give me a good ARC/STR build for both 98 and 120? Not sure on the best stat allocation for wheel/HMLS

We went and took him down, sorry.

LAYER ONE REPORT

Things of interest:
Hemwick Witch in the pre-dungeon
A fuck of Hemwick Witches in the main dungeon
Great One's Wisdom in the post-dungeon, who knows what it was

Boss was lmao2kat Undead Giant. This place was fucking awful.

ONTO LAYER TWO

I have no idea what's going on.

I'll restart the game.

Can I summon you to help me reach layer 2?

Just stand behind boss door and open it for me. I can't solo these Witchs.

Just use SRRC

44/12/25/12/5/50 = 98
Just pump Vit, End, and/or Skill to get to 120.

Well, Friendly Maiden, I guess we now know why you weren't getting summoned... Lol

>Just pump Vit, End, and/or Skill to get to 120.
Not more in STR?

> SRRC

All right

You can do well enough with just 25. Skill would add more damage to the Moonlight Sword at that point, not sure about the Wheel though. More Arcane could be another option.

Honestly I just want the max possible damage per hit for PvE (since I co-op a lot) while still being viable in PvP

25/25/50 Str/Skl/Arc is what I'd go with. 25/50 Str/Arc hits pretty hard already.

I already have a build going for the stats you recommended, but gave up on it at about lvl 70. Not sure why.
The prospect of farming nourishings probably.

FRC Amygdala is piss easy with a fire Stake Driver and Oil Urns. With 2 Cold Abyssals and an optimal Fire gem you can 3-shot Amy if you know how to jump cheese and land oiled charged R2s.

Jesus christ, that boar fight was lagging like fuck for me (Maria) many times the boar was just floating around the arena.

Same here, did a instant 180 turn to hit me.

Did you beat it?

Yeah, we got it

LAYER TWO REPORT

Things of interest:
Pre-dungeon had a Great One's Wisdom. Probably a rune, who knows
More Hemwick Witches
Post-dungeon had Red Jelly in the coffin

Boss was Maneater Boar. Much easier than the first layer. Making me worry what it's got in store next.

NEXT LAYER

EVEN MORE WITCHES

Ok, SRRC'ing again.

Hopefully I get to kill the boss this time. I need Cold Abysalls, so Elder would be great. But Gregor knows how shit I am at that boss.

Anybody want to join me for SoY funtimes on NG+3?
Pass is ggb if so.

If you set up a savescum to farm him, I wouldn't mind helping you after we've cleared this FRC.
Got nothing else to do tonight.

That'd be great.

I'll try not to get one-shot by his crossbow as soon as I enter the arena 3 times in a row again.

WHY WOULD YOU SPELL THIS EVIL UPON US

MORE WITCH'S

this fucking dungeon...

...

> elder would be great

I'm so sorry for jinxing the layer.

Well, you got your wish. I'm actually going to back up my save here real quick, I could use another cold radial. Be ready in a bit.
