How do you think a fully-armored knight should express their emotions?

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@HowdySouls Appreciate it. Hope you've been doing well

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

2024 continues to kick my ass. Our family dog had to be put down recently for sudden medical issues, and I haven't been doing great since then.

She loved her family and knew she was loved back. To anyone with pets of their own, please let the same apply to them. They deserve it.

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

I know my online presence has been pretty minimal recently, but I think making this post will help finalize in my mind the fact that she's gone.

While I'm grateful that she didn't suffer and ended up going peacefully, I'm still going to miss her all the same.

To renew my Gamer Card™, I beat Promised Consort Radahn at level 1 with no blessings, no weapons upgrades, no parrying, no status effects, no hits taken, and with melee only, all in NG+7 and on the newly discovered "DLC+" mode.

Terrible boss btw

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@LonelyBot7 I don't think it's intuitive at all for a player to realize you're supposed to run backwards for the 4-clone variation that happens after the meteors, then to the right for the 3-clone variation when he just jumps up

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@maddhistorian @MaxeyFMVP @youthfvl_ No worries! I just wanted to clarify how I define "no status effects" in the original tweet, since I can now see why that could lead to some confusion without me being clear with what exactly I meant by that

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@maddhistorian @MaxeyFMVP @youthfvl_ On top of it not being included in the tutorials for status effects, items that define "all status resistances" have no effect on Black Flame damage. It's a matter of semantics, but Black Flame is probably defined more as a debuff than a status effect in this game

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

Copy-pasting this from another reply, but I would've liked a flat arena, less visual obstruction, less checkmate scenarios, less bugs, slightly toned down numbers, more flexibility to beat the cross slash and phase 2 phantom attacks, a better ending cutscene, and most importantly, someone other than Radahn

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

Black flame's damage is calculated entirely separately from traditional status damage. It does do damage over time like poison and rot, but sleep is considered a status effect too, so the DoT isn't what defines status imo.

Note that some items that raise all resistances to status effects, such as the Ironjar Aromatic, do not have any effect on the Black Flame DoT damage.

@lord__smeg @Dastardly2Duo @johnnybravinci I guess you could hold 4 colossal weapons in your off-hand to do it, but that of course means equipping weapons at all, which is unfortunately still fraud behavior

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@PaharoPaharez @FintanMajora There is not, it's a one-time increase

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@thundershock24 @HPNobody1 there are some edge cases, but yeah it's generally safest to dodge forward and slightly left

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@TheLoreHunter One day, I'm going to be just like him, beard armor and all

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@thundershock24 @HPNobody1 I try to use a flask after an attack with a lot of recovery time while still staying in melee range. And the dodge direction is his right, but your left

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@kosmos_er @SmoughTown Me walking through that fog gate to find a buggy Radahn fight instead of Godwyn or something

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@thundershock24 @HPNobody1 Also, try to default towards dodging forward and to your left for the regular swipes that leave beams behind

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@thundershock24 @HPNobody1 Position near the center of the arena, but not quite in that trench in the middle

Try to think 2 or 3 steps ahead so if he does meteors or the floating beam, you always have enough room to run

Run backwards for the meteor ghosts, but to the right when he just jumps up for them

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@FintanMajora After beating Radahn on a save file for the first time, all future NG+ cycles will increase the health and damage of enemies in the DLC by a bit

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@EatonDick69 And there's nothing wrong with that! Everyone enjoys different stuff in a boss fight, and I can understand the appeal, I just personally didn't like a lot of the choices they made here

[V-Limit @vlimit_11]

@johnnybravinci I'm a fraud😔
