    Me and the girls went to Florida on vacation and bumped into Sam! Such a great guy. Hung out with us the whole day! We played checkers on his forehead, poured out a pouch of schneeberg at Bryan's grave & met some of the folks staying in his basement. Super lovely people! They couldn't speak through their funny outfits but Sam assured me the restraints were consensual. Thanks again Sam!

      ​@@Slynch25no. It is more complicated than that. Spirit springs apply a buff to you that prevents all fall damage regardless of height. You can fall from that cliff and not die as long as you are within range of the buff. Sam was right on the edge, but his horse made a slight movement before the falling animation was complete and put him outside of the buff range. Hence the delayed kill.

    Fun fact: Dueling shields are a historical thing.
    Extra fun fact: They were deliberately designed to be awkward and unintuitive because they were invented for judicial duels. Judicial duels were supposed to represent a form of divine judgement rather than being decided by how good of a fighter they were, therefore they often used odd weapons that neither combattant would be experienced with, sometimes even going so far as giving one of the belligerents a handycap when it was determined that he was at too much of an advantage otherwise (as an example, they had specific formats for duels between men and women, where the men had to stand inside a hole for the fight).

    Fun fact, the sword shield you drew does exist somewhat. It was a lot smaller though, its called a spiked targe. The scots used them in like the 1600-1700s. They had one in Skyrim called the targe of the blooded too.

    It is insane just how much buildcraft changes the difficulty of this game. My first encounter with Bayle was with an impenetrable thorns build, a spirit summon, and Igon, literally no-hit first try. My second playthrough with nothing but spiky balls and no armor? Way harder. I had to actually bob and weave his insane moves and get right up in there to actually do damage which made the fight 100x harder but way more fun IMO. I think this game, although requiring some knowledge of its build synergies, is very good at discreet difficulty tuning for people who want different experiences. You can either make that fight a big fun brawl with buddies of different classes and summoning Igon, or you can make it a harrowing 1v1 with Placidusax's rival.

      @zecaptainpegleg8820 maybe we are talking about two different similar looking shields. What i know for sure is that what i mentioned is real, and we even have some historical art depicting its use in a duel. I kinda doubt they would just use a bigass shield like that offensively, maybe a small shield with a spike but not something as big as depicted ingame (it would be very heavy for a weapon)

      @@famulanrevengeance3044 I feel like they should turn summons and spirit ashes into a "help mechanic", meaning that you do 10/15 tries on a boss ALONE then it unlocks the possibility to use them if you want to use them. In this way you'll appreciate the movesets etc... and you might keep trying alone if you feel like you have a chance, if you can't be bothered just use summons and ashes and you're good to go. When it comes to stuff like impenetrable thorns, I feel like it's just a bugged Incantation tbh, still, they haven't fixed it so I guess they either didn't notice or they don't care enough to tweak it, who knows

Like, there's no skill, no improving, no brain usage, it's just, as you said, mindless spam. I don't understand how this can be fun when you know you are not doing anything impressive while, at the same time, the fights don't even look or feel cool. There is nothing that I would define as "fun" in this way of playing. Maybe people just do it so that they can say that "they beat the dlc/this very hard boss", I really don't know. In the end, I'm complaining way too much, let them play however they want (but I'll never stop being pissed when I see people screaming "LOOK HOW EASY THIS WAS", after they killed a boss by using stuff that is borderline cheating/insane broken builds).
