A normal enemy killed me from full health in a single, unbreakable attack combo, at 38 vigor, just 2 below the softcap If this isn't proof that the lategame damage scaling is BROKEN AS FUCK, I don't know what more you need From fucked up, admit it
40 is the first softcap After that the returns are diminishing
Joseph Peterson
>soft cap the point of diminishing returns in ER is 60
Julian Moore
Bonewheel Skeleton says hello.
Thomas Hill
Which talismans using lol, also these can't wipe your hp @ 50 vigor, even with very little defense
Jeremiah Mitchell
Is there actually any story in this piece of shit or do you just wander aimlessly and kill shit?
David Evans
Dark Souls 1 had bonewheel skeletons. No one bitched about them because it fucking clear when they were going to attack and were so easy to dodge. If you get kill by it then it is because you weren't even playing the game. I argue you have more room to bitch about grabs but this is literally just something from the 1st Dark Souls game with a new skin.
James Anderson
>to make the game playable you dont have to do it if you just dont get hit plenty of people have finished RL1 runs you are also using soreseal so you are taking extra damage
Christopher Walker
It's an RPG, faggot.
Alexander Gray
>no resistances >wtf why do enemies kill me with two hits?! Literal retard.
Cameron Garcia
> this nigger plays with a game pad
John Cox
yes
Joseph Moore
A character with 60 vig cant survive the only attack thats not easily dodgeable from Malenia, so yes.
Ryder Howard
no
Adrian Butler
>Dark Souls 1 had bonewheel skeletons. No one bitched about them the only reason people remember bonewheel skeletons is because they bitched about them.
David Gray
You're moving the goalpost from "It will always deal a % of your health" to "you shouldn't be getting hit by those attacks in the first place".
My faith and arcane are 8 Int 37 Everything Else is 30 Starting samurai gear Moonveil +10 Moonlight GS +9 UGS +22 Nothing I have met In the snow areas has one shotted me
Dominic Roberts
VIG and by extension HP, aren't meant to be treated like HP. They're a backup in case you get hit. The objective of the game is to not get hit, so don't. It's not that hard.
Those multi-hit attacks always kill no matter how much vigor. It was the same on Dark Souls with the Wheel Skeleton. You didn't block or evade the first hit and you're dead.
Jack Harris

Logan Rogers
>arcane 8 How do you find any items lol?
Nathaniel Morgan
>Moonveil kys
Andrew Perez
I agree with you but I bet you are the same type of faggot who hate Dark Souls 2 because adaptability was a thing you need to level up. If you like Dark Souls 2 then I apologize but otherwise you just a fucking hypocrite.
Are fans really the type who don't even know how to kite anymore? Are the fans that fucking braindead now? Thought you guys learn how to play by now but even after five fucking games you are still clueless. Unironically git gud. Not as an insult but learn the fucking patterns for once and learn how to fucking play.
Luke Ward
Ahh Yea Forums never change.
Cameron Clark
About the Arcane state, but what it is used for, actually? It seemed to be useful for some unique items and discovery, but that's it.
>play dark souls >get a full combo from a bonewheel or a torch hollow >instantly die WOOOOW BROKEN SHIT GAME HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW jokes aside how much does armor even do in ER
Thomas Myers
Oh no, I love Dark Souls 2. I even unironically like Soul Memory.
Jeremiah Kelly
How is this Vig shit any different from niggers complaining about adaptabilty
Hudson Clark
Increases status buildup too
Parker Rogers
Big shit is like 35% physical reduction.
Jonathan Morales
Both are shit DS3 and 1 were much better
Isaac Johnson
it's worse cause the game was fully playable even if you didnt level ADP
Jordan Ward
>Are fans really the type who don't even know how to kite anymore? you do know that wheel skellies are faster than your run speed right? yes they are easy to sidestep, but that doesnt excuse their shitty multihit damage. fromsoft never learns from their mistakes, then it all piles up into garbage like elden ring
Ryan Watson
>don't level vigor >don't wear armor >wear a bunch of "increases X type of damage but greatly increases damage taken" amulets so you can shoot le epic nukes >WTF WHY AM I GETTING KILLED THIS GAME IS BROKEN
Bentley Phillips
>RPG >Stats don't have linear bonuses >Stats have scaling >enemies have scaling Why do developers keep insisting on implementing these shit mechanics? No one likes them, and it takes more effort to keep them in than not.
Alexander Rodriguez
It's their worst story by far, aimless killing would be better
Leo Howard
I kill everything three times
Jeremiah Diaz
yes you have to have a good build if you want to survive in an RPG
Isaiah Clark
Are you retarded? OP isn't using either seal, is wearing armour armour doesn't do SHIT and has levelled vigour. Maybe open your eyes before posting?
Cameron Robinson
>not even the first health softcap in an optional end game area >robes instead of armor >not a single talisman dedicated to any form of defence >getting hit by an attack with three whole seconds of wind up 100% fair and deserved. Absorbsion isn't as good as it should be, but it's still a thing.
Hudson Kelly
>38 vigor >armor does nothing in this game, it's better to not wear any >no My god it must suck to be this utterly retarded.
Camden Young
>DeS, DS1, 3, BB, ER - Level VIG for HP, iframes aren't a stat >DS2 - Level VIG for HP, Level ADP for something that has universally worked in every other single game in the series without a stat tied to it Gee.
Jaxson Bailey
Dont even wanna spend one level on making it a bit easier?
Oliver Collins
Yes, from mountaintop onwards enemy damage becomes dummy thicc. You can mod that autistic shit out If you want i guess, it's retarded bloat and not even the main reason of deaths.
Jacob Evans
>armour doesn't do SHIT the difference between robe type armor and medium is huge for physical, it can be almost 20% in some cases. Then slap on the relevant dragoncrest talisman and the damage is fine. you can't run a full glass cannon then complain about it.
Carter Bennett
yeah you need to just get good
Camden Wright
Just buff ARC with runes, seals or armor when you need it
Eli Flores
He's wearing an Erdtree Talisman, The Radagon one that increases cast speed, the slow HP regen one, and dunno what else. He's also wearing fucking robes. >GEE WHY DID MY GLASS CANON SORCEROR GET ONE SHOT BY A SLOW ASS ATTACK AHHHHHH THE GAME IS SHIT I'M GOING INSANE
Benjamin Powell
>viglet and amorlet Don't play glass cannon builds if you can't handle the glass part
Cooper White
No
Isaac Barnes
You can easily avoid this by dodging to the left dumbass, or ask Miyazaki to add "i-frame after hit" for you, easy mode fag
Not him and I don't care for soul memory but I'm seeing a lot of people recently coming out of nowhere saying they're fans of DS2, I'm really liking this surge of popularity the game is enjoying since I think it's enjoyable and got far too much shit for years. It's a patently jank and unfinished game but I still love it.
Dominic Peterson
>75 INT >Not smart enough to avoid that bigass windup
All the other points others make about everything you just posted being wrong are made redundant by the fact that you need to be an absolute retard to get hit by that move.
Wyatt Fisher
>15% physical damage reduction from armor >doesn't bother to roll or try to avoid the hits lmao you get what you deserve.
Nicholas Reed
have you tried wearing something else than a light bathrobe for armor?
Kayden Hughes
Lol you're an idiot. You can get up to like 2900 HP at max. And there are weapon arts that take out that ENTIRE mob at only 70 DEX. 1 combo of Waterfowl Dance is enough to do it. The damage is fine.
