i've heard horror stories of it, so thank you
- beat old monk. 3-2 is always a super easy place even though it unnerves me a lot. it's a very unsettling experience, but i like that about it. maneaters are always frustrating because of the bridge though. as fights, they're not hard and manuevering around the space isn't as difficult as most would have you believe either, it's just that the bridge glitches out sometimes when you're near rubble and glues you in place. still, beat them on like the sixth or seventh attempt, which isn't amazing but w/e.
- this game has a stupidly large amount of places to grind even though you fundamentally never need to grind. going through the storm king's arena and killing the enemies there (which you should be able to easily one hit kill) with the ring of avarice equipped nets you like 10000 - 20000 souls in about a minute, if not less.i'm half considering grinding in it until i'm overleveled once i beat astraea and allant (both of which aren't terribly tough fights). i was getting tossed around in my ng+ playthrough on my old PS3 so i definitely think it'd be better to overlevel than be underleveled.
- sitting at a phosphorescent pole +3 and a rune shield. mephistopheles quest should give me two colorless demon's souls which'll let me max the pole and then i can focus on the rune shield. the phosphorescent pole is really neat and i like it a lot, even if it makes me dual wield it to get any sort of efficacy out of it.
- with me beating maneaters, this playthrough is essentially over. all i need to do is mephistopheles and pwwt selen vinland before i can tackle 1-3, 1-4, and 5-2 and storm to endgame.
- oh wait the blue dragon
- dang
