I might try it again I’m a avid gamer top 500 in overwatch, it’s just hard to maintain that ranking in that game then play this where I have no sense of direction on where to goIt's one of those things where, there is just so much, and it's so complicated, it takes the average man or women a very long time to get into it. It's a complete time sucker. It's really made for the hard core gamers that spend all their time on home made super computers. Every button has three functions, so you are always hitting the wrong thing, and the game it's self will not let you succeed. They like to tell you it's a game of skilll, and maybe that's true for speed runners, with a fast enough computer, but I'm at level 140 now and the game will adapt and take me out on purpose if I'm too successful. It won't let me hold onto ruins anymore. It WILL take them from me. It levels up with you. There is just such a HUGE learning curve to get over, so once you get half way in you wind up spending all night, and any spare moment playing it. You have invested sooo much at that point, and all these youtuber kids are just running through things pissing you off.
At some point you refuse to be outdone. It becomes sort of addiction. A whole lot of it for me is just plain dumb luck. I just happen to be in the right spot at the right time to cheese a ridiculously hard enemy. It may take 10-12 hours to pass one challenge ( that happens a lot for me). It is a form of insanity, as you keep doing it over.... and over...... and over.... hoping that one time, maybe this time, will be the time. You really need the time to get into it. The deeper you go, the more you refuse to let go of it.

I am a wrecking ball player mainly! I 1 tricked him all the way to grandmaster then I learned other characters after that! Game sense is huge in that 1Very impressive! Overwatch after mid plat is very hard for me. You either have to be elite on one or two heros or really good at a bunch with great game sense and I’m never going to achieve either.
It also seemed fairly straightforward if you just look for and follow the very conspicuous places of grace and the directions of their light because you have a very fast horse for outdoors and can really comb over an area at a gallop. NPCs actually offer a lot of direction too for a FROM soft game. I was pleasantly surprised on this front.
Well, maybe that was the case for you, but that's not most people. Most people walk out of the cave of knowledge, bump into the tree sentinel and go... I'll come back later, then they go up the hill and bump into stormhill castle and go.... I'll come back later. Before you know it, you are running all off trail looking for what ever you can find and trying to stay alive. Those sites of grace tend to be just off the path, so you have to go looking for them, and you don't know what you are doing until you get far into the game.
I did the two handed cleaver with sword dance. Sword dance is probs my favorite. At the moment I'm rocking the gargoyle halberd +20 with black flame on quality, and juicing it with incantations. Works well when you get used to the timing. You have to get your timing down in a graceful manner for the wind up tho.
That poison fist! I really have been having too much success rolling through the cleaver and gargoyle weapons to play with fists much, but the poison fist is pretty strong!
In the meantime, I just lost another 80 thousand ruins. I have been adding it up, and I swear I've lost 4 million flipping ruins in this stupid game. If it were cash, I would shoot myself!
