Pad Chief A Just War Pad Chief A Just War Pad Chief COVrock
Thinking about getting Blops 2, but I've been really bored with the CoD series and the Battlefield series as of late. Haven't played MW3 since, jesus, January and no BF3 since maybe an hour last week some time.
All of my Skyrim right now. xD
And Netflix, cause ******** you!
You should do us a favour and just not buy it. If you keep buying those games then Activision will just think it's okay to put out a new game with literally no differences from the last. Battlefield 4 is on the cards too which shows how EA is equally awful. Modern Warfare 3 was pretty much a $60 (£40) map pack for MW2. Also Skyrim was mediocre. I got 70 hours of play from it so I can't complain but I simply can't touch it again afterwards. The floaty combat and lack of serious choice in weapons beyond magic, weapon or bow (they use a system of straight upgrades) for an action RPG is crippling. The roleplaying aspects were also designed for a crowd of people who want to play 'cool' characters which made trying to get into a role that the game hadn't prescribed extremely difficult. Have I made it clear yet that I'm extremely angry about video games? you have... I was referring the Black ops I think that one may be my favorite simply for the introduction of the variable zoom scope. Though I concur with MW3 simply being a map pack for MW2. I also couldn't really get into skyrim but by far my favorite game of the year was dark souls! it's just so damn good! I really got sucked into it and just wow I really really enjoy it. Overall I probably have around 300 hours on Dark Souls. Not so sure about that though. Still terrible at PvP though. I can never stop getting backstabbed or worse still lag stabbed. I'm going to spend more time with the PC version. I can't wait to fight with Artorias of the Abyss. He looks fantastic. Like if Gwyn and Sif got put into one single engine of a** kicking. So probably a bit like the False King I hear tales of. Yes I have a very significant amount of time on mine. I have two character one I am pretty good at PvP with but the other I'm garbage. I still can't get my positioning right in order to get the backstab myself... though with my main I'm a mage so I do pretty well because I'm able to force them in close and then make my move after that. Or my personal favorite is turning into something like a vase or a bush and then popping out after that to go for the kill XD I'm not really a dickwraith. I usually like honourable duels. Though it really pisses me off when I bow and then their either backstab or drink Estus mid fight. I can do backstabs but not as easily as I'd like. Most of the time when I do them the glitch where the person becomes invincible to backstabbing activates. So yeah. Not so great. What weapon do you use on your mage? I'm alternating between the Enchanted Claymore +5 and the Moonlight Butterfly Horn. You'd be surprised just how strong the range is on that thing and how it hits for decent damage if you can use it right. Although I've heard rumours of the sheer potential asskicking that is a Crystal Magic Weapon build and am tempted to design one. For the PC version obviously. I tend to only bow after they do to make sure they won't do that because I'm tired of it happening too. I usually only go cheap when I'm in mid quest and someone invades because I'm really trying not to die at that point XD. I use an enchanted uchigatana +5 began of it's move set, and the moonlight great sword because of it's range abilities as well. The uchigatana combined with the dark wood grain ring makes it's move sets pretty useful. Crystal magic is quite lethal I have to admit but I prefer having an all time deadly weapon instead of one that can wear out.

Or any of the Katanas really for that matter. The Halberd was my weapon for my first playthrough though. That weapon is awful but I love it. Crystal Magic though requires you to use a minimum levels approach to get the best results. A high dex build that uses Ricard's Rapier and Crystal Magic could be incredible. Then you could put the otherwise wasted points into END and VIT. I might start work on the theoretical build now. I'll probably employ bows too since it's a mid dex build. Enchanted or Magic Bow probably.

Pad Chief Ready to get your asses kicked by Dex/Mag Smough. Magic Archer and Swordsman Supreme? My rockin' build.I kind of want to play a critical mode archer after this. pretty nice if you ask me. I agree the katana's are not very good but they are what I got used to using. I'm waiting to get moonlight greatsword up to +5 because then I will use that weapon! Though he seems quite badass.

It sounds good but it's not really that great. Due to the heavy attacks breaking your sword you have to sacrifice some of the versatility that the easier to use and higher damaging +5 Enchanted Claymore gives. A +15 Crystal Magic Enchanted Claymore would have damage through the roof though.

Yeah that makes sense. I just wish I could find a good fast swinging weapon, I also wish there was a covenant more devoted for mages. and I will test your theory on the +15 crystal magic claymore at some point. I'm trying to find a very good weapon that does high damage without having to use an attunement slot for my mage. I can't seem to find one though :-/.
By the way I shall be gone the 14-18 so there will be a lack of posts from me during that period.

By the way I shall be gone the 14-18 so there will be a lack of posts from me during that period. I've looked at the maths for it actually. Crystal Magic Weapon is in reality inferior to the Enchanted Damage Type I believe. Basically the difference between the CMW Ricard's Rapier and Enchanted is too little to be worthwhile at 50 INT. As for the fast swinging weapon. Use the Sunlight Straight Sword or the Baldr Side Sword. Once given the Enchanted type they'd be pretty badass. I might try them out once I'm home with a +4 Enchanted. Since the Sunlight Straightsword shares the moveset of the Longsword it's fairly fast as well as an effective fast weapon. The Baldur Side Sword has a fantastic moveset though. Also don't forget the Barbed Sword from Kirk. That can cause bleed. I'll keep in mind your downtime though. I'll probably throw you an extra 2 days.

I figured it would and I believe my INT is around 60 so I thought the enchanted weapons would be more worth while.

I hope that was your first character because the only stats that should be pushed beyond 50 are VIT and END because of the ability to wear extreme weight armours or have more health than you know what to do with. I mean I'll freely admit my first character was a mess of stats but how you're getting away with 60 INT is beyond me. You had to have sacrificed something else.

I was unaware that once I got past 50 the amount of scaling significantly decreased. Though It's not that big of a deal because I got very good at dodging (at least the engine not other players who invade) Yeah my endurance and Vit are rather low but it's no big deal I have adapted to it haha.

One of the funniest ways to ******** around with other players is to roll into their attacks. It's a legitimate strategy too but most people expect you to roll away. That said the invincibility frames don't work too well against the Crystal Magic Soul Spear as I learnt. The hard way. Damn though. You must be rocking like 45 VIT and 35 END by my guess. If you're not using the Green Blossom that's got to be difficult. It'd be even worse if you put points into RES. I hope they remove RES in the next game. That stat is so useless.
