    If you head west from the church of Elleh, there is a gargoyle cave, if you farm their helm it gives +5 to Int.

    I realize I called it 'The Final Step' instead of what it actually is. My only excuse is that I am dumb... Also, The first area where to find the map for the beginning local area is called 'Gateside Ruins'. If you follow the golden trail you should be able to find it very easily. Hope that clears up any confusion🙂 Thanks for watching!

      I think that depends on what you're wanting to do exactly. There's a katana called the Uchigatana that requires 11 str and 15 dex to use. But it is an overall good weapon. Especially if you get the spells to infuse it.
      Keep in mind too though, that the higher your dex, the faster you cast

    I’m new to the games by FromSoftare inc. I’ve been learning the rules of this world and what does what in this game. I got the Meteorite staff but was having trouble figuring out how to equip it. "I was tired and not thinking clearly. " I chose discard item thinking it would fall to the ground and I could pick it back up after sorting my inventory. But it would seem that discarding an item destroys it. Is this true? Did I accidentally destroy a great weapon? Can I find another one or buy one?

    • @VidjaGuys
      @VidjaGuys  2 роки тому +1

      Well I can say that it is a great weapon.... but I don't think you can actually replace it. Not that I'm aware of anyway. But a really close second (imo) is the Demi Human Staff. I'm looking into how to get it now.
      On the upside though, if you really want that meteorite staff, you can get it after you make your character and I know a way to safely power level quickly (that doesn't involve farming wolves)

      I think it might be a preference thing, the bonus to gravity magic is helpful. And it still outperforms most other staffs, even when they're fully upgraded.

      The S-scaling on INT makes it a top-tier staff. The single best staff doesn't exist, I believe, because it depends on which buffs you want, but this staff is as solid as they come. The fact it doesn't need any investment (smithing stones), means you can invest in other weapons, like your melee weapon, or another top-tier staff. The Meteorite staff will carry you up to end-game, especially if you pick up the Rock Sling spell in the building right across of the staff location (in a cellar without any mobs), since it gets boosted by the staff's passive

    Unfortunately they made grinding too easy in the game. You can already get the best staff in game early on by killing those 2 weak mobs, crystalline summon or whatever it was I found to be way more tanky than headless which also made most bosses in game too easy, even doing it on first try like I 1 time mistakenly walked into a demigod, didn't even know it was like one of the main bosses and just killed it first try like idk...The best helm with 5+ int you can get early game as well and by early I mean just travel a bit with your horse and be done with it. Then the best talisman is very easy to get as well early game.
    Didn't even have my summon upgraded and staff was only like 5+ or so. Went to kill another boss and I just stopped, asking myself what's the point, I pretty much already have the best gear in game and just lost interest quickly.
    Lesson: Do not play INT in this game, ruined the fun for me.
    Faith is cool but u can already get the best stuff for it early game as well.
    Melee probably is the one that you can grind with the most.
    Of course if you don't care that much about grinding then yeah the game I think is 10/10.
    But grind wise, I don't think anything for many years can beat Nioh 2.

    • @VidjaGuys
      @VidjaGuys  2 роки тому +1

      This is well said. It's true that you can pretty much deck yourself out in the best gear for your build pretty early and getting runes fast is super easy. I think it really works for people who just want to explore the world and story.
      But I can definitely see how that would take away from the high you get with finally beating a difficult boss and getting the gear you've been struggling for in another souls game
