      @@EllaKarhu I never said havels, because honestly that's just game breaking; don't put words in my mouth. Just wanted it a little bit higher so there'd be more amor sets I could ninja flip in for shots the hell of it, like Artorias' armor which I use a lot just because I like the look. True most of the reason the ring doesn't work with the armors I use is my heavy weapons but I'm just saying itd be fun if I could. It's not like I'm saying "oh, I legitimately wish Fromsoft would make it so the game is more broken than it already is, because I suck at the game" I'm just saying itd be fun to be able to use the ring with the loadout I use. It was more of a hypothetical what if, and less of an actual request I would make of Fromsoft. An actual request I have of fromsoft is to fix the bullshit chainbackstabbing

      Right? I never thought any ring came even close to beating Havel's. FAP is a must have for all the builds. Then it comes whether you're melee (Havel) or a mage (+damage to spells). Ninjaflip ring is for lookcool dexfags (no offense). Wolf Ring I never tried out.
      If I wanted to be unstaggerable, I used Iron Flesh (Still makes for the most disappointing first Artorias fight ever. I heard hype stories all over the internet+from my bro who already played the game. I charged in with full Havels+Iron Flesh+Power Within and Demon's greataxe, tanked through his combo and destroyed him in 10 seconds. I was like "that's it?" )

    When I first played Dark Souls the Ring of Favor and Protection was a Godsend, but these days the fact that removing it breaks it makes it worthless to me. Those two ring slots work better when you combine two rings that work well together in certain situations. That ring limits the player from using good ring combinations, if you don't want to break it, so I wouldn't recommend it at all.

    Being limited to only 2 ring slots was incredibly frustrating for me; why put like 30+ different rings in the game when so many are wasted simply because you don't have other slots for them?
    The "Ring of Favor and Protection" is just so useful and can't be removed without breaking, so essentially I was left with only one ring slot, and in certain parts of the game, you're going to have to use that second slot for stuff like "Rusted Iron Ring" (to move in swamps/water etc) or "Charred Orange Ring" (to move in fire/lava sections).
    Just felt very limiting to have all those other rings, but no spots for them.

      Andrew Craven That is very true. Grass crest however takes equip burden however and is no more than an okay to decent shield aside from the stamina effect.
      And I don't want to keep eating consumables all the time.

    • @sirprize8572
      @sirprize8572 6 років тому +1

      GCS takes up no more equip load than any other medium shield, so that's a moot point unless your shield of choice is a parrying dagger or small leather shield. And even without the use of green blossoms, the difference between Cloranthy ring and GCS is hard to notice. If you really need that extra 12.5% without eating green blossoms, you could wear mask of the child.
      The problem isn't that Cloranthy ring is bad, it's that you give up a lot by not having one of the other, more impactful rings in its place. The other rings enable tactical options that are unavailable to you without them. Wolf ring allows you to poise through hits, opening up options like poise backstab and greatly reduces your chances of getting stunlocked and dying to R1 spam. Havel's enables you to wear significantly heavier armor and still fast roll, granting you much better protections (and even poise) that you wouldn't have otherwise. DWGR allows you to I-frame through hits significantly easier and opens up more opportunities for roll backstabs.
      By comparison, All Cloranthy ring does is take something your character already does naturally and lets them do it a bit faster. Yes, you could potentially use your superior stamina regen to punish someone hiding behind their shield with repeated strikes followed up by more repeated strikes before their stamina bar fills, but any half-decent player won't fall into that very easily avoidable situation.

      Andrew Craven I must add to this that I play PVE exclusively.
      Except for the occasionsal invaders and covenant events.
      I was talking about PVE only.
      PVP wise you are perfectly right.

    • @sirprize8572
      @sirprize8572 6 років тому

      ​@ThePesmergia I'm well aware of how it all works. But are you suggesting you play with no shield at all? Because GCS weighs no more than any other medium shield, and your only other option would be a light shield, of which the only one that's even kind of good would maybe be the Target Shield. My point is if you are basically forced to reserve those 3 units of weight for a shield, you may as well have it be the one that gives you stamina regen. It's better than using up a ring slot for it.
      As for green blossom + mask of child being good enough, I agree. That was kind of my point (in fact, I even mentioned that above). All 3 of the other stamina regen options are fine on their own and can be mix & matched to your liking, and all occupy less important slots than choranthy ring.

    For legit new players:
    Take the master key as your gift. your class doesn't matter that much but i reccomend you pick the pyromancer, as you get your pyro glove and powerful spells early in the game. after you leave the asylum, level up, go to new londo, get the firekeeper soul and suicide. after that, go to the graveyard, and try to get all the souls and the zwei, then go to new londo again, but instead of heading straight forward, turn to the right, use the master key to open a shortcut, and cross the bridge to the undead dragon, now this is important: DO NOT GET HIS RIGHT HAND ITEMS FIRST, take the left soul and if you want you can get a pretty good shield for early game areas and a sword that you probably cannot handle.
    Great, you're doing great
    Now level up until you can use the straight sword or the zwei, just preference. now, go to the undead burg, loot everything you can and buy about 60-70 arrows and a bow from the merchant.
    after the boss you will find a bridge, open the shortcut to the bonfire, and go under the bridge and shoot at the dragon's tail
    Hope i helped someone ;)

      I honestly wouldn't recommend a new player do any of the above things. Maybe get the drake sword, but even that is a crutch that quickly becomes a liability if you're not prepared to switch to a better weapon by the time you're at Quelaag. My recommendation for new players is to replace whatever shield they got from their starting class with the Heater shield as soon as they come across the merchant, and grab the claymore at the hellkite bridge.

I’d like to see something on upgrading weapons and gear it’s way different going 1-10 is easy enough but the types like divine and so many different materials I don’t know what I’m doing.

    • @shodahollow4021
      @shodahollow4021 6 років тому +2

      Scott Swift divine and occult are for faith builds
      Raw is for early game
      Fire is good for early game too but you cant buff it
      Lightning same thing just different elemental damage
      Crystal gives you high damage but you cant repair the weapon
      Chaos gives you more fire damage and also if you have 10 humanity (in the upper left corner) you also get more damage
      Enchanted is strange I think it gives you better scaling in Intelligence maybe?
      Magic is for... well... magic builds
      Heres how the infusions work
      -fire weapon
      +5 weapon -magic weapon
      -divine weapon
      +5 div. Wpn.- + 10 div. Wpn.
      - occult weapon
      +5 mgc. wpn.- +10 mgc. Wpn.
      -enchanted wpn.
      +5 fire wpn. - +10 fire wpn.
      - chaos wpn.
      +10 weapon - crystal wpn.
      - lightning wpn.
      +5 weapon - raw wpn.
      Hope that cleared it for you, if you want specific ember locations just tell me.

    • @shodahollow4021
      @shodahollow4021 6 років тому +1

      Oh yeah I forgot
      Blue chunks for +10 magic/ enchanted weapon
      Red chunks for +10 fire/chaos weapon
      White chunks for +10 divine/occult weapon
      Regular chunks for lighning, crystal, +15 weapon
      Green titanite shards are for bellow +5 magic, fire, divine infusions
      You always need 9 shards
      Then 9 large (green) titanite shards
      Then 7 (blue, red, white) titanite chunks and a (blue, red, white) slab

    • @Koleuz2
      @Koleuz2 6 років тому +1

      Fire and Lightning infusions are useful even in late game. The raw damage it gives off is on par with other scaling weapons. It's nice for a character that isn't going to focus to much on damage stats but instead go for extreme vit and end for example.
      Chaos has lower damage then fire normaly, but the more humanity you have (max of 10) the higher the damage gets, until it outclasses fire.
      Magic weapons have added int scaling and magic damage.
      Enchanted is similar, but the base magic damage added is smaller then the magic one. However, the int scaling is higher, so for high int builds, enchanted definetely outclasses magic. Magic is better for int/str or int/dex builds.
      Same for divine and occult. Divine adds faith scaling and magic damage to the weapon, along with the aux. effect which grants extra damage to undead and the capability of definetely killing them without having to kill a necromancer first.. Occult adds a base magic damage that is smaller then divine but a higher faith scaling, which on a pure faith build, definetely outclasses the divine for damage. It's auxiliary effect also grants you extra damage against Gods and their kin (silver knights, black knights, God bosses for example).
      So, similar to enchanted/magic, divne is better for fth/str or fth/dex hybrid builds, while occult will definetely be better for pure faith.
      The rest of the upgrade paths are pretty simple.

    • @shodahollow4021
      @shodahollow4021 6 років тому

    • @shodahollow4021
      @shodahollow4021 6 років тому

      Now that I think about it raw is the most broken infusion in the game
      You have decent damage from the start.
      You dont need titanite chunks or slabs.
      You can buff it with resins at low levels and at high levels you can buff it with spells... you know darkmoon if you´re a faith build, Crystal magic weapon if you´re an inteligence build... well thankfully those buffs aren´t TOO POWERFULL RIGHT GUYS?

Or use spell stone plate ring for magic defence if another mage invade. Rusted iron ring when in blight town with poison bite ring. It's all depends on what happening.

    Hawk Ring is invaluable for taking down the hellkite drake without having your eyebrows singed.

    I killed Havel through the door just for his souls, I later realized I missed an amazing ring. I now have Havel’s armor and can only use the chest plate and boots without fat rolling :(

    I saw the Calamity Ring in the thumbnail and I'm slightly disappointed that you didn't make a case for it being the best ring.

    I use Steel Protection and Hornet, the only 2 rings that matter when you're wearing no armor and insist on being a dragon
    Also, a really easy way to kill havel is to start with the master key and immediately go to the everlasting dragon and get the head stone. If you're a scrub it might be intimidating but it's really not that hard to just roll past everything. The hardest part of the journey is not slipping off of the wonky geometry in the great hollow.

    wow I didn't think I'd learn anything new in this vid. That's a nice shortcut to wolf ring that I never knew about. Also what's he saying, ST-ring?

      S-Tier. It's a term mostly from fighting games, where it's common practice in the communities to rank the various characters into categories or tiers based on their capabilities in combat. At first they were usually lettered alphabetically from A to D (or sometimes E) starting from A being the best, B being slightly worse but still considered viable, C being not recommended or only good for very particular or situational strategies, and D being the characters that are so poor that they are considered completely unplayable in a competitive sense.
      Somewhere along the line, the S (I can only imagine means Super or Special) ranking was added as a tier above all the rest, to denote the few characters in a game that are considered so powerful that you'd be crazy not to play them. These are usually the characters referred to as broken or overpowered.
