What was that thing I just killed A tree spirit from the Erdtree’s roots. As you might have noticed from the ulcers, that thing was very very very very very sick. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That "unblockable" thrust parry skill is super good once you get the timing for it down. It’s mainly when there’s a bunch of enemies that I have trouble. They can be hard to juggle. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some minis whose names I can’t remember. I’m pretty sure I’m up to the Lady Butterfly, though, because I remember this place from years back. Juzou the Drunkard gave the most trouble. Not because he was that tough, but because he’s surrounded by at least eight mobs. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I remember they give you a samurai NPC to help out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I remember they give you a samurai NPC to help out I never found a way to clear them. I could reliably take out two of the mobs without aggroing him by sneaking around the side, but killing the third always got his attention. And I was quick enough to kill a fourth (the archer) before he could reach me, but then it would still turn into a 5v1 with one of them being a boss. The samurai always got flattened in like five seconds flat. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Maliketh truly is Marika’s half-brother, then they probably have a single parent who is not the GW. Possibly a Numen? * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The text is very specific and says half-brother (when they could have used adopted and step like with Bleidd and Ranni) I think it's safe to assume there brother and sister by blood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Could it be that Marika and Flippiketh have the same father, in the Greater Will but different mothers? Half-Siblings seem to confer that otherwise they'd be full siblings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong, but I never got the impression that she was a literal child of the GW, just its (or the Two Fingers') chosen empyrean "host" for the Elden Ring. Or, if not chosen, then the one who ended up taking that role of her own accord. Far as I'm aware, there isn't any mention of the GW, the Elden Beast, or any outer god ever actually creating or "fathering" anyone. Marika is also supposed to be a Numen and might even predate the arrival of the Greater Will. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be the runt of that litter I doubt Meme-Zaki will have the dlc there, as From always throws the dlcs from directions nobody guesses. Would be a cool place too. on a wholely different subject, I can't believe the amount of people who think Kaiden is in the Mountaintops of the Giants. There's no settlement, nor ruins of the sort. Plus we can see distant mountains north of the Haligtree which is already the northernmost part of the Lands Between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Im experimenting with stuff. Found an ash of war that is pretty fuckin badass, blood strike or somethin like that. I put it on my lordsworn longsword and man, it takes some of your health but the range on that bitch? and the damage? insane lol I bet I could kill some bosses with this combo. Also killed these twin asshole statue bosses under an erdtree in hell. "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
