You’ll be able to lose 100k and just go “meh”. Losing ember kinda sucks early on, but don’t worry too much about souls. And yeah, if you like the halberd a lot then you should upgrade it. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I got over it so quickly, been training on the second bonfire on the high wall. I really like the halberd, it has good reach, decently quick R1 attacks, good spinning R2 one. When you role and then attack right afterwards you swing real fast, speaking of quick attacks without a shield and wielding it one handed if you hit L1 your attacks are literally as fast as daggers.

BigBossBalrog Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I've been reading a book on Vikings my prof recommended me. Pretty cool, but oddly enough, the thing that fascinates me the most is the conversion to Christianity. Apparently most Vikings, even the ones who we're thinking the Christian God was the real deal, still worshiped the Norse Gods even when they converted. Like they we're just adding "the Christ god" to their already massive Pantheon. Seems simple enough, but it's pretty alien to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Even the Bible while it saying God is the only God, acknowledges other gods as well. Granted, it’s not supposed to be taken literally, but you surely could. Thou shalt Have no other gods before me. That alone without context could be taken as an admission of other gods existing. A lot of the Bible is up for interpretation. "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Ugh, Im fixing to look up bonfire locations, just went through a whole ton of tough enemies only to be swarmed and now have to do it all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Remember, you don’t have to kill them. Once you get the loot, try finding ways to just run past them and avoid the enemies.

TheCzarsHussar Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I just learned that enemies can stun lock you, those weak zombie ass dudes that grow the black shit stun locked me on the ground and killed me.

ColonelKillaBee Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It is lol you can kill them before they change, kill them at range (that’s what I recommend) or just avoid them. "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say this is an admission of other gods existing, just the worship of them. Another god in this context can be anything, even yourself. It’s saying that you shouldn’t worship anything but the Lord. 28 minutes ago, BigBossBalrog said: I've been reading a book on Vikings my prof recommended me.

There were lots of funny and neat things like this when it came to pagan conversions back then that didn’t necessarily jive with Christianity. Like how a lot of art and poetry of the time described Christ in a more warrior-like fashion, to make him more appealing to peoples that valued strength more than mercy and the like. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKillaBee Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 And given how literal Lutherans are, I think it’s a fair interpretation since people cherry pick what they take literally and metaphorically all the time.

Some attacks and weapons are better for some enemies than others. Knights can absolutely be stunlocked but I never used the halberd so I can’t speak to how effective it is against them. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
