yeah I beat the boss that way

WHY CAN'T YOU

probably because my character is still at level noob having only beat the necessary foes to open sen's fortress so I could obtain green titanite to max my fucking double divine claws god damnit now I need answers as to why they fucked with my leaping abilities

[riley-o]

hey man have you checked your equipment burden limits

[The Schwartz]

I'm in a loincloth wearing claws

[riley-o]

if you go over 25%, 50% and 75% of your equipment burden it changes your rolling animation

[The Schwartz]

5.8/91.5 nigga did you not just hear me

[riley-o]

if you level up you can increase your endurance stat to increase your equipment burden maximum !

[The Schwartz]

I will end you

[The Schwartz]

who's the guy in anor londo who sells my shit?

[riley-o]

the boss weapon maker dude

[The Schwartz]

some actual help tells me that dexterity increases the speed and distance of rolls

[riley-o]

god damn four kings in NG++

[Ghost Dad]

Rush em with the black knight sword two- handed?

[riley-o]

that's like the advice i was giving schwartz

[Ghost Dad]

Well what's your build for this playthrough?

[The Schwartz]

I've yet to do a third playthrough with one build but the NG+ Four Kings were the same ol shit

[riley-o]

dude have you played to NG++ yet ?

at some point i don't think you even HAVE a build anymore man

i've tried two-handing every high-powered weapon i have and don't get past the first two. the best strategy so far has been pyromancing the stone until i run out of flames and then switching but it's so dependent on which attacks they use

i had such an easy time of these guys the first two playthroughs too

[The Schwartz]

but besides the basic stay close technique, the crystal homing soulmass worked really well if you have built any magic yet

[The Schwartz]

yea I'm halfway through on a third playthrough and it's basically one or two hits to destroy any foe

[riley-o]

using what ? my INT is only like 25 so i don't do enough damage at all with the homing crystal soul mass

have you fought them in NG++ ? it's a huge step up from NG+

[The Schwartz]

no I think I just got to Anor Londo, and my intelligence is at a ridiculously insane level and I'm using the sword you get from Sheath so it basically isn't fair

[riley-o]

fuck FINALLY

[The Schwartz]

I'm not remembering this but do you know what the glowing orbs in the catacombs right before you get to the pinwheel skeletons are for?

[riley-o]

isn't it for miracle resonance or something ?

[fallbacktostone]

picked this up again

i had left off on ornstein and smough

[riley-o]

i realized last night i'm going to have to fight them in NG++ to unlock the lordvessel so i can grab the white and red titanite slabs i need

that's about when i put the controller down and just went to bed
