Lords of the Fallen recently was on sale on steam for a whopping $4.49. I somehow had never heard of this game and only found out about it maybe a year ago. Went over to a buddy's house and he was playing. First thing I noticed was the game looked very pretty and the armors looked sick. When it went on sale a few days ago I had to give it a shot, couldn't pass it up for less than 5 bucks. This video and your walk-through/play-through videos have been a tremendous help! Just thought i'd comment to let you know that even in 2019 these videos are still helping newbies like myself that have just started their first play-through of the game! Awesome video and thanks so much!
I know I'm really late to the party but to anyone who watches this video the back breaker trinket is in the golden chest at the end of the arena that you enter after killing the graveyard boss
You can get the GOLD persistence if you kill the first boss without taking any damage. It sends a Shockwave through the ground with a charged standard attack. It can take out groups of those infected with a well placed strike.
Thank you. I love your taste in games and the the help you have gave people. You are a live saver! Love your video, love your taste and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! PS, can't wait to see your Elden ring stuff!
Thanks for the guide dude. It's the only reason I ended up completing the game and it's DLC today. The only change that I would suggest is to use the Peacemaker greatsword that drops from the human greatsword enemies. It does significantly more damage and you can farm it in the next area after you get last will. It does have a STR requirement of 34 though. Thanks again.
Wearing a shield on your back DOES block and reduce damage depending on the type of shield you use, but ofcourse thats only when using it on your back, so its great for rolling builds to utilize a turtle shield.
Ranger is dirty for never using checkpoints and health pots. Unlock shelter asap to regen health then take is slow til you're geared, get high exp bonuses, been playing for 3 hours and I'm lvl 50. Btw ranger is rogue gear with cleric magic.
Just picked bought this game for less than $9 today, that includes all the DLC too. Watched the trailer for the new game, and had to pick this up. Excited to play.
I thought i recognized your voice, didn’t look who made this video, but then I recognized your voice and i was oh! it’s Fightingcowboy 😅🤩 awesome walkthroughs and gameplay.
I started my first play through as warrior/brawler and put a lot of points into faith/endurance and grabbed the cleric-hammer from the statue at the second boss. Haven't found any weapon that beats it yet (it had 85 dmg right away, but 112 now with a rune), and I just slaughtered the Infiltrator. 3/3 Ram is really nice vs some enemies, and fire-projectile too. I can 1 or 2-shot most enemies with Ram.
Orange Persistence carried me through the first half of the game (didn't up vitality once). The shockwave is one of the most overpowered things I've seen in this game.
Isn't the Thor hammer the best warrior weapon? It does less initial dmg but with rage, you could chain the tornado to up to 2000-3000 dmg. It is disgustingly op.
Hеllо plаyers . I Find rеliаblеd plaсе that providе thе Gеms & Gоld. Hapру to shаrе it with you guys! twitter.com/9bd547fb6c895c74f/status/779268409787723777 Lords oооof the Fаllеn Unstoрpаblееее Warrior Build
Omg, that Stone really brings up the damage ! 30 STR, and that Stone. Thanks for the tips ^_^ (but I picked Rogue, because I thought it was the kind of game where I had to always run around enemies, and dodge and everything)
I liked the one handed sword, I think it's called Justice??? That sword had more or almost as much power as the two handed weapons and you can swing it fast as fuck... That's how I beat the last boss with that thing... I do agree with you about that My Axe weapon though... You use rage with that thing and just start swinging wildly and you fuck everything up lol
I recomend to add 2-3 point of luck it will drastically change items drop rate . This game is not DS or DS2. Your experince helps but don't expect to Iframe, parry, backstub and block everything. Roll is slower, armor actually does protect you and exchangig blows even with bosses is ok Game is very disbalanced classwise.. I went as far as catacombs on my agility thief and reroll warrior. I don't know maybe thief becomes awesome in NG+ but so far it feels like war is an easy mode and thief is harder then hardcore. I am reasonably good with parry and backstubs otherwise I'd probably reroll warrior earlier or quit playing. Light armor, low dmg per hit, no poise makes thief really hard to play. Dressing agility character in heavy armor and add tonns of vitality makes no sense to me at all.
Rogue is by far my favorite class (the closest to Bloodborne gameplay) and the trick is the combos. In NG+ I killed the commander so fast that he only summon a mob once. My prefered weapon is Itch (and Neddles for spellcasters) and no shields.
Thanks for all the vids (including Dark Souls ones). Really helpful. Just got past the beast and indeed it was a breeze. I used the Clawfinger with high Fate, it's slow but effective and it has a nice powerattack!
Right now peace maker has 600 damage I have one shoted almost everything in new game + 😂 I love it....I keep my vitality on 12, put the rest on endurance so u can have better Amor while staying on mid speed with the lords armor, will allow you 4 solid swings with peace maker which is very important combined with the lords energy efficiency bonus. Putting anymore than 12 points on vitality is a waste in my personal opinion, I got my faith on 21 so I can max all the spells but u don’t have to do that if u don’t want, at 18 u can max rage, and throw the rest on endurance and strength... I personally like having an extra swing with my sword and also u can use the leech trinket without having to use back breaker to meet weight bonus. So u heal every kill. Btw good guide I just wanted to share my own strategy since I’ve had such great success with it :) And I read around that the luck is a waste so I kept mine at 0 and I still find great shards. Also use flawless luck on peace maker to hit that 600+ damage.
In the warp gate before the lost brothers, There's an arena challenge that gives you Ceremonial. A greataxe that is the same move set as My Axe but has two rune slots! Drop some luck stones in them and it's more powerful than the Last Will. You went into the arena in your walkthrough but you didn't challenge it. I recommend giving it a try. Other than that, nice build!
I take that back! There's a random drop called the Rhogar. It's a polesword so it has to be used two handed. One rune slot, but with a flawless luck rune, I'm two hitting the strong human guards in the citadel. It has a fast swing, and a nice forward stab for a strong attack so it stops any enemies charge, plus the stab stays out there for a second giving them time to ram into it. I'm dealing 468 damage per hit. Happy hunting!
Any thoughts on Rage + Dagger agi rogue? I like mimic but only when it can be used right. I dislike how it blocks your view. I just hit ng+ so was wanting to know if those two would pair nicely.
Forgot to mention, Mimic + Skull Scraper ( with luck rune it's 14% scale on agi ) with only 30 agi does insane dmg. Hell those daggers do crazy dmg without mimic ( which doubles your dmg )
+FiGhTiNCoWBoY repeatability is dependant on how much you enjoy the game, I'll do ng+++ or how ever much till dark souls 3 releases. already beat dark souls 1and 2 numerous times
What up Cowboy? So I just finished my first run down. After the end of the game and I kicked off NG+ my character has a permanent health section gone. Almost like the hallowing in DS2. I started this way and have no idea why. Idk if it's a bug or what. Anyhow didn't know if you'd know anything about it. Thanks man.
I k own this video is probably old but all you need is fate and heirloom, fate in a light axe, does TONS of damage, you get it really early, scales great with strength and attacks really quick, the reason I use it is because it only does slightly less damage the some of the better great weapons coupled with its speed with berserk on you kill everything in seconds, and if you need some magic damage heirloom when upgraded deals a bit of everything BUT sadly no scaling...also it looks awesome...lions
the peacemaker is better then the last will you can get it in a drop on your way to antanas I had to upgrade my luck to 2 you have to kill one of the sword guards and get lucky to get it
I feel like Prayer is under utilized. On certain bosses, like the Warden, Champion, and Guardian, I cast Prayer from the cleric tree for mana regen, then pop Rage while the boss is distracted and spam the 2 hit heavy charge combo. This makes boss fights on a joke on NG+. Also playing Warrior with Lords armor, Peacemaker with flawless luck rune. Another good attack is the running heavy slash. Kills most enemies in one hit, even shield enemies.
My Peacemaker does 550 Damage, but it has a 34 Strength requirement I easily hit 1000s when I do my heavy so the Peacemaker is better than last will by alot its almost broken I beat the final boss in less than a minute with rage and it!
Hey Cowboy, great video as usual and I am definitely enjoying the playthrough so far! However I have a couple of questions: 1. How long did it take you to beat the game first time? 2. Where did you acquire the Lords armour? Once again thanks for the awesome videos Cowboy, keep them up!
I'm late to this and only been playing for a week. What a game. I'm rocking the warrior build and came across your excellent video. Not sure how far I'm through this game but I've just killed beast and re enter the Rhogar realm
Decent basic tutorial i used a mix of melee 2 handers with medium armor to get the mobility and deception to usually kill bosses in 2 or 3 hits,killed last boss with just 2 special deception hits from my 2handed sword and like 1 normal hit whith lvl3 deception ability and faith around 21
yo cowboy! awesome video! but i have a question: where did you find the lords armor? im near the end (i have to fight the anniehilator) and didnt ind the lords armor yet :(
rofo666rlz It depends on the weight of your build. If you look at the bars in the inventory screen you'll notice the weight bar. Now for instance if your bar is only filled for half of the weight that you can carry, then you'll move a lot faster while if your bar is almost fully filled, you will move a lot slower and if the gear that you use weighs more than what you can actually carry then you won't be able to dodge roll at all. That's why he uses the Back Breaker trinket (6:28), it increases your weight capacity significantly. It's very useful if you want to use heavy armor and still want to be relatively mobile. Anyway, I hope this helps ;)
I am almost halfway through the game with this build and, while powerful, the swing time on most 2-handed weapons seems way to cumbersome especially with 'my axe' (even with a 30 str and 16 end). By the time you deliver a hit to the enemy, they end up getting in a lot of hits, and if they are fast enough, they often roll away in time to dodge your attack. The hitbox in this game is also nowhere near as accurate as the souls games, and missing with a slow weapon is always worse than a faster one. Overall, it has been a good build so far.
Heavy weapons have almost all a first super-slow swing usually followed by a pretty good fast one as combo on the 2nd, the trick with them is jump attack on the first hits, basically erasing the "charging" penalty. Try holding down r3 everytime on first contact and you'll see the difference. Also, remember that pre-hitting the button before the end of the first swing makes the stamina cost of the second half :P
I argree with cowboy because I used the codex with a flawless luck and two flawless powers and when the people looked like that where going to act I would do the jump act and murder them the little molten knight would still have there shields up and codex would go right over the shield and cut the heads
will you get a skill that allows for holding 2hand sword with 1 hand and shield in the other ?? I´m gonna try and get max all skills and classes in one char since Theres no level cap in this game.. looks awesome
You're confusing this game with Diablo 3 :P There is no skill for holding 2-H weapon with 1 hand and shield in the other hand, since you can already do that.
***** Now maybe I just forgot but last I played D3 you could NOT 1hand a 2hand weapon, now you might be able to in the expansion RoS, but I haven´t gotten around to play that yet.. and with all these games coming next month its likely I won´t for a while
wow that was fast.whats your thought for the game overall now that you have finished it.i have already preorder it and can t wait to play on friday.i really like magic based chars.is this game will provide a nice experience on that lvl?
Ok so having recently gone back to this game to mop up achievements and DLC I have no idea why I had played it so little first time round. Great name gets some hate but the game is designed to feel eavy feeling that big hit with a great sword is nice especially with a tank build. Some tips I would say try to start with either shelter cleric spell or rogue shift. Either way if u do ng+ get both of these trees. Shelter will help ur defence and also heal u. Shift is just super op! U basically go invisible and can one shot enemies, at point I was one shotting some bosses with this on my faith build. If u want to use spells u will always needs point in faith. Rogue build is not as hard as people say, get good at learning patterns and get the stamina combos in u will put out some serious damage only issue with rogue is the best armour is only in ng+. Best weapons are peacekeeper for strength the DLC weapon for faith and I think skull scrapers for rogue havnt tested the DLC one yet.
I have a Warrior on NG++ with a weapon that has 508 damage normal, with scaling i reach about 800 and I have the Shift rogue skill on lvl 3. That makes me hit anything with 8000+ damage in one stealth swing.
Yeap,Luck runes are insanely overpowered. I got Higher luck rune just before the last boss and game just went super easy mode because of it. I think I killed the boss with like 5 hits. I rolled with a paladin build so I had 20 or so in faith too,so didn't just put everything into strength.
So this is the first time ive ever played a game like this and ive watched pretty much all his videos and im having a super hard time beating some of the bosses. Ive notice almost all your weapons are at like 40+damage how do you get them to be that strong im only on the courtyard in the grave site:/
Liam Babapulle yeah, my peacemaker with Flawless Luck Rune does about 570 dmg with 37 in strength, but the Last Will, though it is lighter and less taxing on energy, does closer to 360 dmg with the luck rune and the same strength
Only way to respec? About to fight the infiltrator respeced like and idiot and didn't put the points back into my health so I'm sitting at 20 strength,17 endurance,12 faith and 8 health.
any tips on getting light armour cause my guy fat rolls and gets his ass kicked on the first boss just started this game got it when it was free with xbox gold thanks
I was doing this without even knowing it, only that I did raise my vitality more than 15 and still need more strength, but anyway, I think I'm good for starting to play two days ago.
I have same weapon it says mine does more damage I have 40 stregnth and it does no were near the damage in his judge strategy I'm confused I also have a flawless luck rune engraved I'm confused
+MegaMarshmallow Legendary version, you get a better version if you do certain things during the fights. That actually goes for all bosses. For the Commander specifically though if you don't block at any point during the fight you get the Legendary version of the Commander Shield. That goes for shield and weapon blocking.
Anyone have any idea how people are getting 500 damage out ceremonial? I'm running a strength build and my strength is at 53 but even with 2 flawless luck runes I'm only at 380 damage
I did it in around 14 first playthrough and I got lost so many times. NG + I completed it in about 8. I have this weapon which just make this guys weapon seem like shit. Peacemaker Damage - 508 Power - 100% Energy - 260% Weight - 6.00 Higher luck rune -> Strength scale (+3) 4% Attack speed 100% Crit dmg 90% block def 68% :)
+TheZappi30 that's nothin... my peacemaker does 600 damage.. with rouge skill 'Shift' i do usually 5,500 dmg on average per hit on CRIT hits sometimes i do 15-18k... the trinkets you get in anew game plus are awesome, but i still think the rouge/ability character is the best so much fun doing parries and ripostes i took down judge in NG++ in 3 hits wit my strength character.. just wasn't any fun anymore too easy.. the ability is epic. DUALIES ii used an ice pick thru first 6-7 bosses and basically never died once.. ability is the way to go if you know how to do it right.... faith is fun too but also got boring there's only one hammer you can use entire game after first playthrough, with rouge i got like SICK weapons that each own.. and i'm still using stock armor most of time. well not stock but i got it in tutorial 'cold blood' because if you wear the set it does +15% damage when using dualies, but its the special item that the judge drops during your first playthrough the challenger, easily the best trinket in the game. but hard as shit to get, have to kill all the adds so that he doesn't heal not even once during entire battle, so what i'm waiting for is responce light armour which you cant get til NG+ on rouge/agility build if you wear the set together it does +15% to movement speed & +20 t poise which i think has a lot to do with nothing but getting knocked over, but if you don't ever get hit u own... , faith build is all about the gauntlet when you get it high enough it does like average of 650-700 DMG per hit... so Strength is deff the easiest then faith, but with this ability build i feel like i started playing a new game. hes so fast and dodges everything and does madddd damage so quick wit dualies.. took me a good 3-4 hours to learn the basic of parries and ripostes but ugh its so much more fun than any other build really suggest you try it, beginning's tough but i got sum vids up if u wana try it check out my channel its got boss fights wit all my characters. lost interest in faith tho, just slow and boring, once you get to boss 3 use shard os heroes and you should be fine for awhile til u head down to catacombs and grab heirloom and needles, those and claws and my favorite weapons in the game, so fast so much damage adds up if u can master the speed and parries you'll own everything from start to end of NG++
It bothers me that we can't drop equipment. It's good to have couple of different weapons and armor parts but there is progressively so much junk in the game and we have to keep ALL of it, cluttering the inventory.

Yup, when I get stuck, Cowboy is my go to.
This game is fucking awesome too. I've only played through it once, but I'll prob have NG it at some point.
Thes good but it's extremely short that's my only problem
I know I'm really late to the party but to anyone who watches this video the back breaker trinket is in the golden chest at the end of the arena that you enter after killing the graveyard boss
yer just found it, massive difference
You can get the GOLD persistence if you kill the first boss without taking any damage. It sends a Shockwave through the ground with a charged standard attack. It can take out groups of those infected with a well placed strike.
I've decided! Starting Lords of the Fallen, again ... tomorrow!
So, did you start or did you end up doing another run of dark souls 3?
......I let it sit in my uninstalled free games for 5yrs and just last week started playing.....and I feel ashamed.
Thank you. I love your taste in games and the the help you have gave people. You are a live saver! Love your video, love your taste and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! PS, can't wait to see your Elden ring stuff!
thanks for the tip. was getting my shit kicked because i was trying to play too defensive. now im owning face
Thanks for the guide dude. It's the only reason I ended up completing the game and it's DLC today.
The only change that I would suggest is to use the Peacemaker greatsword that drops from the human greatsword enemies. It does significantly more damage and you can farm it in the next area after you get last will. It does have a STR requirement of 34 though.
Thanks again.
Nice build. I love how the berserk game makes guts feel if you haven't played that game it's sick!
Wearing a shield on your back DOES block and reduce damage depending on the type of shield you use, but ofcourse thats only when using it on your back, so its great for rolling builds to utilize a turtle shield.
Ranger is dirty for never using checkpoints and health pots. Unlock shelter asap to regen health then take is slow til you're geared, get high exp bonuses, been playing for 3 hours and I'm lvl 50. Btw ranger is rogue gear with cleric magic.
Just started this game, your tips really helped. Appreciate it. Subscribed.
6:28 You find that trinket in the proving grounds, it’s through a portal somewhere near where you kill the worshipper. :)
I had the "Stance shield", but never even noticed it was making me recover mana !
lol, thanks for the heads up ^^
Just picked bought this game for less than $9 today, that includes all the DLC too. Watched the trailer for the new game, and had to pick this up. Excited to play.
Hey thanks to this build I was able to aim towards this for last 1/4 of game and absolutely smashed the last boss first attempt. Thanks!
I thought i recognized your voice, didn’t look who made this video, but then I recognized your voice and i was oh! it’s Fightingcowboy 😅🤩 awesome walkthroughs and gameplay.
badass build bro. i wish they would keep adding to this game. its def alot of fun
+1 for a Agility Playthrough :)
I loved the Swing Greataxe, Burden Polesword, and Last Will Greatsword. Stance Shield, and Two Horned Shield.
Thanks for info, it's been very helpful!
I started my first play through as warrior/brawler and put a lot of points into faith/endurance and grabbed the cleric-hammer from the statue at the second boss.

Isn't the Thor hammer the best warrior weapon? It does less initial dmg but with rage, you could chain the tornado to up to 2000-3000 dmg. It is disgustingly op.
Peacemaker with a Flawless Luck Rune + Amulet of the Betrayer + Eternal Legend Set = 2000 dmg in 1 swing against most stuff.

Quetzalcoatl No, but it's close. What the other dude suggested is way better.
Omg, that Stone really brings up the damage ! 30 STR, and that Stone. Thanks for the tips ^_^
(but I picked Rogue, because I thought it was the kind of game where I had to always run around enemies, and dodge and everything)
Thanks to you i beat NG in 4 days

the poise stat on armour makes this game really cool... wish souls game have that were if you wear super heavy armour you shrug off most melee blows
I got The Greatsword "Breaker" before my battle with beast, and it is a strong 128 damage weapon for the majority of the first playthrough
+Dilan Jakubowski Same that thing looks like the only thing to replace persistence greatsword for me yet. And I think it swings faster as well!
I recomend to add 2-3 point of luck it will drastically change items drop rate .

You should make a series on the other two starting classes!
thanks. will help me in new game + with the labrinth addon. battling with that huge ghost thing.

Lc Jester peacemaker is best in the game, mine is almost 700 dmg at 41 strength! Shit is insane!
this really helped me....thanks! :D
Take a peek at the Raider class the amount of damage you can do is insane
As always thanx CB, (HK91G3)
I recommend the symmetry armor for 2H weapon users , you'll get +15% extra damage.
Back Breaker you can find that ring after killing the third boss in the arena portal
Cowboy can you do a cleric build with the great hammer or staff as the main
Did you use the two DLC that come with the game ???? .. Cuz i dont know if i have 2 start with it or na
Any thoughts on Rage + Dagger agi rogue? I like mimic but only when it can be used right. I dislike how it blocks your view. I just hit ng+ so was wanting to know if those two would pair nicely.
Forgot to mention, Mimic + Skull Scraper ( with luck rune it's 14% scale on agi ) with only 30 agi does insane dmg. Hell those daggers do crazy dmg without mimic ( which doubles your dmg )
Hey Cowboy, what do you think about this game? I know that you probably prefer Dark Souls, but what's your opinion and how would you rate Lotf?
***** Okay, thanks for the answer and great build :)
+FiGhTiNCoWBoY repeatability is dependant on how much you enjoy the game, I'll do ng+++ or how ever much till dark souls 3 releases. already beat dark souls 1and 2 numerous times
What up Cowboy? So I just finished my first run down. After the end of the game and I kicked off NG+ my character has a permanent health section gone. Almost like the hallowing in DS2. I started this way and have no idea why. Idk if it's a bug or what. Anyhow didn't know if you'd know anything about it. Thanks man.
hey I will soon will be buying the game jw could you recommend a good class to go as ??
I k own this video is probably old but all you need is fate and heirloom, fate in a light axe, does TONS of damage, you get it really early, scales great with strength and attacks really quick, the reason I use it is because it only does slightly less damage the some of the better great weapons coupled with its speed with berserk on you kill everything in seconds, and if you need some magic damage heirloom when upgraded deals a bit of everything BUT sadly no scaling...also it looks awesome...lions
Starting this game today (free on psn). Tips for best class and shiz?
same here from what im seeing warrior and paladin are the most loved ones but the deception ones seem to be able to 2 shot bosses which is no fun
The Egg delete it
I'm addicted to this series like heroin
Love how you threw a little Berserk plug in there at the end. Awesome series. Any word on a new episode released in the US?
I picked cleric at the start of the game just so I could hit things with a hammer
Why didn't you use peacemaker greatsword?
the peacemaker is better then the last will you can get it in a drop on your way to antanas I had to upgrade my luck to 2 you have to kill one of the sword guards and get lucky to get it
Mine does 600+ damage and I sacrificed vitality for high endurance so I get 4 solid swings with it... it’s so worth it.
You don't have Breaker (128) or Tor? I also played DLC and after you defeat Keeper boss, you can craft one of 3 types of armor.
I feel like Prayer is under utilized. On certain bosses, like the Warden, Champion, and Guardian, I cast Prayer from the cleric tree for mana regen, then pop Rage while the boss is distracted and spam the 2 hit heavy charge combo. This makes boss fights on a joke on NG+. Also playing Warrior with Lords armor, Peacemaker with flawless luck rune. Another good attack is the running heavy slash. Kills most enemies in one hit, even shield enemies.
My Peacemaker does 550 Damage, but it has a 34 Strength requirement I easily hit 1000s when I do my heavy so the Peacemaker is better than last will by alot its almost broken I beat the final boss in less than a minute with rage and it!
The rune?
very nice
Hey Cowboy, great video as usual and I am definitely enjoying the playthrough so far! However I have a couple of questions:
1. How long did it take you to beat the game first time?
2. Where did you acquire the Lords armour?
Once again thanks for the awesome videos Cowboy, keep them up!
***** Ah I see, thanks for the information.
I'm late to this and only been playing for a week. What a game. I'm rocking the warrior build and came across your excellent video. Not sure how far I'm through this game but I've just killed beast and re enter the Rhogar realm
Cool build. Would love to see a good agility build though.
Decent basic tutorial i used a mix of melee 2 handers with medium armor to get the mobility and deception to usually kill bosses in 2 or 3 hits,killed last boss with just 2 special deception hits from my 2handed sword and like 1 normal hit whith lvl3 deception ability and faith around 21
nice guide, thx!
@Fightin R U going to do a new build video with what u r using four game+?
Oh okay I was lucky to get one during my 1st play through. Thanks and I enjoyed your walk through, do u plan on posting the cleric walk through?
Can't wait :)
yo cowboy! awesome video!
but i have a question: where did you find the lords armor? im near the end (i have to fight the anniehilator) and didnt ind the lords armor yet :(
ok thanks :)
how do u roll and move so fast in heavy armor? i just started playing this and i have trouble avoiding gettin hit cuz i move like a turtle
rofo666rlz It depends on the weight of your build. If you look at the bars in the inventory screen you'll notice the weight bar. Now for instance if your bar is only filled for half of the weight that you can carry, then you'll move a lot faster while if your bar is almost fully filled, you will move a lot slower and if the gear that you use weighs more than what you can actually carry then you won't be able to dodge roll at all.
That's why he uses the Back Breaker trinket (6:28), it increases your weight capacity significantly. It's very useful if you want to use heavy armor and still want to be relatively mobile.
Anyway, I hope this helps ;)
I am almost halfway through the game with this build and, while powerful, the swing time on most 2-handed weapons seems way to cumbersome especially with 'my axe' (even with a 30 str and 16 end). By the time you deliver a hit to the enemy, they end up getting in a lot of hits, and if they are fast enough, they often roll away in time to dodge your attack.
The hitbox in this game is also nowhere near as accurate as the souls games, and missing with a slow weapon is always worse than a faster one.
Overall, it has been a good build so far.
Heavy weapons have almost all a first super-slow swing usually followed by a pretty good fast one as combo on the 2nd, the trick with them is jump attack on the first hits, basically erasing the "charging" penalty. Try holding down r3 everytime on first contact and you'll see the difference. Also, remember that pre-hitting the button before the end of the first swing makes the stamina cost of the second half :P
I argree with cowboy because I used the codex with a flawless luck and two flawless powers and when the people looked like that where going to act I would do the jump act and murder them the little molten knight would still have there shields up and codex would go right over the shield and cut the heads
I loved my ace it Broke my heart to replace it
will you get a skill that allows for holding 2hand sword with 1 hand and shield in the other ??
I´m gonna try and get max all skills and classes in one char since Theres no level cap in this game.. looks awesome
You're confusing this game with Diablo 3 :P
There is no skill for holding 2-H weapon with 1 hand and shield in the other hand, since you can already do that.
***** Now maybe I just forgot but last I played D3 you could NOT 1hand a 2hand weapon, now you might be able to in the expansion RoS, but I haven´t gotten around to play that yet.. and with all these games coming next month its likely I won´t for a while
MikeTheDane327 Yeah you can with the expansion. The Crusader class can, to be precise.
he should update this the peacemaker weapon does around 200 or so damage more with 6 more strength the. the last will.
wow that was fast.whats your thought for the game overall now that you have finished it.i have already preorder it and can t wait to play on friday.i really like magic based chars.is this game will provide a nice experience on that lvl?
***** thank you for the reply.i can t wait to play this game.keep the good work m8 i always enjoy to watch your videos.
Ok so having recently gone back to this game to mop up achievements and DLC I have no idea why I had played it so little first time round. Great name gets some hate but the game is designed to feel eavy feeling that big hit with a great sword is nice especially with a tank build. Some tips I would say try to start with either shelter cleric spell or rogue shift. Either way if u do ng+ get both of these trees. Shelter will help ur defence and also heal u. Shift is just super op! U basically go invisible and can one shot enemies, at point I was one shotting some bosses with this on my faith build. If u want to use spells u will always needs point in faith. Rogue build is not as hard as people say, get good at learning patterns and get the stamina combos in u will put out some serious damage only issue with rogue is the best armour is only in ng+. Best weapons are peacekeeper for strength the DLC weapon for faith and I think skull scrapers for rogue havnt tested the DLC one yet.
I have a Warrior on NG++ with a weapon that has 508 damage normal, with scaling i reach about 800 and I have the Shift rogue skill on lvl 3. That makes me hit anything with 8000+ damage in one stealth swing.
Yeap,Luck runes are insanely overpowered. I got Higher luck rune just before the last boss and game just went super easy mode because of it. I think I killed the boss with like 5 hits. I rolled with a paladin build so I had 20 or so in faith too,so didn't just put everything into strength.
So this is the first time ive ever played a game like this and ive watched pretty much all his videos and im having a super hard time beating some of the bosses. Ive notice almost all your weapons are at like 40+damage how do you get them to be that strong im only on the courtyard in the grave site:/
It would be cool if it had some kind of multiplayer in the game but the long game play makes up for that
Lords of the fallen its 80% free right now in the Microsoft store for those who plays on Xbox
peacemaker with the flawless luck rune has like 200+ more dmg than last will
Liam Babapulle yeah, my peacemaker with Flawless Luck Rune does about 570 dmg with 37 in strength, but the Last Will, though it is lighter and less taxing on energy, does closer to 360 dmg with the luck rune and the same strength
Hey man, how come you prefer Last Will over Peacemaker, if you put a flawless luck rune in Peacemaker the damage on it bumps up to 524
Oh gotchya! I wasnt sure if there was a reason as to it being better, love your vids man used all your guides for special weapons !
nice game. i played every time
Only way to respec? About to fight the infiltrator respeced like and idiot and didn't put the points back into my health so I'm sitting at 20 strength,17 endurance,12 faith and 8 health.
any tips on getting light armour cause my guy fat rolls and gets his ass kicked on the first boss just started this game got it when it was free with xbox gold thanks
how do you get rid of items
what about defensive runes in armor?
My guys level 81
Strength - 41
Vitality - 28
Faith -15
Hes a tank that can deal big damage and take big damage. Plus my armours at 160 to.
Can not find the lords armor
My favorite weapon is the Rhogar spear. 31 strength.
Playing through this now. You played the DLC buddy?
Peacemaker does around 528 dmg at 30+ strength
Softcapping at 590
with flawless luck runes i still get 1 dmg even after 100 str
my peacemaker does 681 dmg at 120 str. my char is at lv 366.
Where did you get the flawless luck rune
I was doing this without even knowing it, only that I did raise my vitality more than 15 and still need more strength, but anyway, I think I'm good for starting to play two days ago.
I have same weapon it says mine does more damage I have 40 stregnth and it does no were near the damage in his judge strategy I'm confused I also have a flawless luck rune engraved I'm confused
lord tachanka Because he ended up getting a new sword.
How can i get the flawless ruins?? Ive been trying to get it and i cant
Red Commander Tower Shield from Commander is awesome when you get it. Don't use your shield on him and he drops the red version of it.
red?
+MegaMarshmallow Legendary version, you get a better version if you do certain things during the fights. That actually goes for all bosses. For the Commander specifically though if you don't block at any point during the fight you get the Legendary version of the Commander Shield. That goes for shield and weapon blocking.
Urmmm.... don't you mean the yellow/gold version?
+MegaMarshmallow Yeah the Legendary is orange.
+Nathan Cockrell yeah I thought so aswell... but red?
Can anyone tell me how to get the peacemaker greatsword?
Anyone have any idea how people are getting 500 damage out ceremonial? I'm running a strength build and my strength is at 53 but even with 2 flawless luck runes I'm only at 380 damage
If im not mistaking, it requires high Faith to get its best damage.
thank you, but just the other night I found peacekeeper and I started new game++ last night. already about to face annihilator
You can have got better defense, because Fallen chest armor is better than Lords chest armor, but only a bit.
I don't have any points to use rage to fight the commander how do I get points to acquire rage????????????
Already NG+? How many hours takes to beat the game?
***** That's pretty damn good for a fairly linear game like this. Especially with all these 6 hour games out there.
I did it in around 14 first playthrough and I got lost so many times.
NG + I completed it in about 8.
I have this weapon which just make this guys weapon seem like shit.
Peacemaker
Damage - 508
Power - 100%
Energy - 260%
Weight - 6.00
Higher luck rune ->
Strength scale (+3) 4%
Attack speed 100%
Crit dmg 90%
block def 68%
:)
+TheZappi30 that's nothin... my peacemaker does 600 damage.. with rouge skill 'Shift' i do usually 5,500 dmg on average per hit on CRIT hits sometimes i do 15-18k... the trinkets you get in anew game plus are awesome, but i still think the rouge/ability character is the best so much fun doing parries and ripostes i took down judge in NG++ in 3 hits wit my strength character.. just wasn't any fun anymore too easy.. the ability is epic. DUALIES ii used an ice pick thru first 6-7 bosses and basically never died once.. ability is the way to go if you know how to do it right.... faith is fun too but also got boring there's only one hammer you can use entire game after first playthrough, with rouge i got like SICK weapons that each own.. and i'm still using stock armor most of time. well not stock but i got it in tutorial 'cold blood' because if you wear the set it does +15% damage when using dualies, but its the special item that the judge drops during your first playthrough the challenger, easily the best trinket in the game. but hard as shit to get, have to kill all the adds so that he doesn't heal not even once during entire battle, so what i'm waiting for is responce light armour which you cant get til NG+ on rouge/agility build if you wear the set together it does +15% to movement speed & +20 t poise which i think has a lot to do with nothing but getting knocked over, but if you don't ever get hit u own... , faith build is all about the gauntlet when you get it high enough it does like average of 650-700 DMG per hit... so Strength is deff the easiest then faith, but with this ability build i feel like i started playing a new game. hes so fast and dodges everything and does madddd damage so quick wit dualies.. took me a good 3-4 hours to learn the basic of parries and ripostes but ugh its so much more fun than any other build really suggest you try it, beginning's tough but i got sum vids up if u wana try it check out my channel its got boss fights wit all my characters. lost interest in faith tho, just slow and boring, once you get to boss 3 use shard os heroes and you should be fine for awhile til u head down to catacombs and grab heirloom and needles, those and claws and my favorite weapons in the game, so fast so much damage adds up if u can master the speed and parries you'll own everything from start to end of NG++
+Ranziel1 took me 11 hours my first playtrough...game is way to short 2nd time only took me 6 and a half hours
+FiGhTiNCoWBoY 1 hour for a speed run, but no one plays that way their first time through XD
It bothers me that we can't drop equipment. It's good to have couple of different weapons and armor parts but there is progressively so much junk in the game and we have to keep ALL of it, cluttering the inventory.
