    Got the Blacksteel Katana on my Dex character. That's good right? Errybody loves katanas.

    It's the best dex scaling Katana in the game, so yes, they're fine.

    Their R2 sheathe move used to be not worth using, but maybe that changed.

    oh gof

    smelter demon's overhead smash horizontal tracking is ridiculous

    demon pls

    i was almost flawless against him until he started spamming that shit

    also i'm gonna say it: iron keep alonne archers are worse than anor londo's archers

    with the anor londo archers, you know they're there, you die once or twice, get past and you're done

    these guys just sit on mostly inaccessible platforms sniping the shit out of you through the entire area

    it's the worst

    so many times i eat a shot from the aether, setting me up for a quick kill from the knight i'm actually fighting

    or roll back, chug estu-

    poot

    you dirty motherfucker

    Iron Keep archers are super accessible. And it's very easy to get into positions where they're blocked.

    Learning how to approach that room in the Iron Keep was probably my favorite part of the whole game.

    Navigating the Shrine of Whatever? That's some bullshit.

    run back to the room to collect my souls

    pursuer spawns

    fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you

    it was some fucking good practice for the boss, that's for sure

    by the time i actually got all the stuff before the boss, and ran past all the knights to get to the boss room, i was real good at rolling

    the smelter demon took me a couple of tries but at no point did he feel like he was going to be a roadblock

    i got him down to a quarter health on my first attempt

    Smelter Demon is a hella overrated fight.

    I'm pretty sure he got his rep from pretty much everyone going in with a Claymore or a Bastard Sword at first at like, +2 and going, "HOLY SHIT HE DOSEN'T TAKE DAMAGE!!?!?!"

    I had a Large Club when I fought him.

    It did not go well for him. At all.

  • ElendilElendil Registered User regular
    yeah, i was doing about 300 damage a pop with the Heide Knight Spear (2 hand)

    it was not bad at all

  • DacDac Registered User regular
    Yeah, I fought Smelter with a swordy sword on the PS3, and it felt super tough and Dark Soulsy.

    Didn't realize he was like everything else in the game and a complete chump to Strike damage.

    Chaos blade is much better damage now but it hurts you 60 on hit now instead of

    Iron Keep requires methodical play. I find it interesting to see who is having trouble with it and what kind of things they say about it. *taps head* Gives you insight.

    In Iron keep I found the best way to clear was to run and jump to the ember, climb up the stairs, kill the archer. drop off, open the chest and run at the other archer in front of the boss door. You are at the boss door and none of the other knights can reach you. Or shoot at you.

    In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.
