Can we atleast agree on that the Spirit Emblem system fucking sucks? They should just refill every time you rest

I had 999 of them by the end of the game and never even had to worry about refiling them after I bought initial 100 for all my money

Nintendorks exploring new avenues to shit post. Same thing with REmake2 and DMC5. Yawn.

Then don't waste them like a retard. It's called resource management.

I use them constantly and I never run out stop being a shitter

You have this problem because you suck. If you didn't fail at a boss so much that you had to farm, you wouldn't have this problem in the first place.

While we're still in this thread, was Divine Confetti a mistake, or was it deliberately distributed to give those ghost boss battles limited attempts before the very end of the game? Should there have been another way to gather confetti or should people have just not bothered until they got stronger from end-game items?

>kill an area full of enemies (getting emblems on the way)
>have 1000 zen
>buy 100 emblems
>no longer have to worry about emblems for rest of game
This worked for me, try it.

yes, should be rechargeable like the healing gourd

>10 zen per emblem
play the game a bit more

Confettis not the only thing that wards off terror. There’s another powder thing like antidote powder I forget what it’s called.

>no longer have to worry about emblems for rest of game

The amount of zen dropped by enemies goes up as well, so what's the issue here?

It’s sen not zen

>S-sony does it too!

This is a multi platform game, user.

You can get an item that lets you sacrifice some of your HP for 5 extra emblems.

Yup, same with blood vials and bullets in Bloodborne. It sucks fucking ass if you're stuck on a boss, run out and are forced to go farming when you just want to bang your head against the boss.

The idols should give you 5 free ones when you die but I guess you could just use the sacrificial knife or whatever and trade some HP for emblems. Still bullshit as far as I'm concerned.

Confetti is the item that puts the flame on your sword. Without it, those ghost bosses only take about 1/12th the damage, and there's only about 6 put in the game before the endgame shop unlocks.

They cost 10 gold to buy.
Just use a gold drop balloon and run once thru populated area killing shit.

Confetti doesn't ward off terror

It nearly trivilazies the fights based on how strong the confetti is, although i think there should have been at least 2 more spots to get 2 more from each spot.

I didn't start the console war bullshit, go complain to that other user.

To be fair the ghost that gives you sacrificial dagger is easy as fuck and takes just 2 confetti to kill.

so what bloodborne did with bullets by just pressing up

More pointless busy work to pad the game.

I never got even close to running out of emblems.
Are you this bad at the game or is this some kind of falseflag to try to equate spirit emblems with Bloodborne's vials?

What's this from? Looks neat

If you have to farm instead of just naturally having enough, you're a shitter. Do you spam your shuriken like you're an archer or something? Or use the rush talent over and over?

Yea basically only its an item you have to unlock.
It drops from a ghost in the dungeon.
Its not a hard fight you jsut zig zag sprinting past his terror balls and then run at an angle towards the goast when he teleports to avoid his Kamehameha wawe.
Using sedatives or we its called can make sure you dint get isntakilled if you do get hit.
He bearly blocks and whaling in him whit enchanted confetti swords dispels some of the terror orbs.

It's probably a design choice because the game discourages you from doing anything that's outside the core combat loop of attack deflect and counter. I'd experiment more if I could replenish emblems in a fight with a gourd but since I can't all I ever use is firecrackers, sometimes the axe, and shadowrush. Emblems should've been an MP bar. Combat skills and prosthetic moves are basically the only customization you have but the game doesn't play nice with these.

Tools are op as fuck.
You just have to figure out which one is best for which fight.
Like the fire tool can stun some bosses giving you free damage.
Shurikens will down most jumping bosses.
And dont get me started on Firecrackers.
Only the fans and the iron fortress are not that great.
The Poison sword is also less than ideal unless upgraded.

Does this game have literally any flaws that isnt rooted in the player not getting good?

I unironically like Spirit Emblems. It's relatively easy to manage regardless, and yet it makes me actually play a bit conservatively with my Emblems even if just a little.
It feels good to have an abundance of Spirit Emblems, and being low on Spirit Emblems, as unusual as it might be, is kind of tense and interesting in its own right.

the tools, no real reason to use them plus they're costly to use, it's more of a missed opportunity than a flaw

Nah the other day I posted in a thread that after I killed the serpent I accidentally fell off the ledge I was on before I got the items. There is no way to get back to that ledge so I can never get that jizo statue now. I was told well you shouldn't have fell off so.

>I can never get that jizo statue now
you were never going to use it regardless

People dont use the tools? I use them all the time.
