Reserving this thing

Another one

4

Again, for Ariandel !

Should be enough for now.

5

Shattered Realms done. Surprisingly SR is much easier than Crucible. I suspect it is due to not having to kite as much in SR provided you pull the bosses one by one.

6

Beat me to it, lol. Was gonna try the same thing.

No word of pain with death sentence for extra aether RR?

:stuck_out_tongue:

It was a rough draft to see if I could. I still need to test a couple of things. WoP being one of them.

8

Tried WoP, it generates too much aggro. I died on wave 169 T_T

EDIT: Ok, second run went better. I just got rusty after playing my conjurers and cabalists for so long :p. Build getting updated.

Further update. Callagadra hurts :frowning:

Having to Kite while popping Ghosts and Blightfiends is not fun and I gave up after 5 minutes…

This one certainly isn’t a superboss killer T_T

10

Well, Ravager died without causing any problems…

I now hate Callagadra even more. Why can’t it be more like Ravager? Why? why?

11

As a self-proclaimed Dark Souls expert, I just want to say that this build resembles Friede in no way.

  1. You don’t use frost attacks, like RoH or BH
  2. Friede uses no pets, but just a big old dude in a chair
    3.Friede would use something like Alkamos Scythe (or rather dual-scythes)

Great build otherwise! Even if it’s not cold BH/RoH with Alkamos Scythe

…

Fine, have a Friede wallpaper instead:

Spiritseeker Cord was found to have better performance, so updated the GT link.

Err… um. Unbelievable and unexpected combination classes for a pet build. :smiley:

Can I get some gameplay on this at all? Just curious what your main source of damage is…where do you put down Inquisitor seal? Just put it anywhere and stand on it and your blight fiend tanks?

17

If you mean videos, I don’t record as it causes too much lag.

It is a pet build, so naturally pets are the source of damage and only pets.

As for Inq Seal, I usually put one where I am standing and another where my pets are fighting.

And yes BlightFiend tanks and to a degree, so do Reap Spirit Ghosts.

Hello!
I’m quite the newbie out here… I was wondering if you have any tips on what to level first (skills and devotion speaking), the stars to use then erase to unlock another one. Or even what to look for in items while leveling up to the max level. I never see these tips (since I guess these are just final builds meant for lvl 100 characters…) and I would love to get some if you’re up for it :smiley:

19

Respeccing is super forgiving in this game, so just level with whatever. In general you max a skill with big AoE, just pick up stuff that supports it and you’re golden.
