[DS] Confess and thou shalt be forgiven

I dropped off of DS1 in Sen's fortress. I know there's no forgiveness coming, it's alright.

I vow to complete it some day though.

The sin would be to give up forever, let's say you are on an extended break.
Hello friend, I am from one month into the future. Did you pick it up again?
- Oh, it's not gonna be for a while. I've got a few games I'm working on at the moment.

This guy's primary use is wild. Like, why are you just attacking non-hostile NPCs willy-nilly in a game without quicksaving and loading? That's second run behavior, not first run!

Anyway: I am a min-maxing low level invader. I am good enough to solo the games at level 1 to collect everything and then I stay between 10 and 30 depending on the game using shit a normal player won't have.

My favorite setup is in DS3. Level 10, with a Dark Infused 4-Prong Plow (along with rings that are only found in the DLCs and NG+ cycles) dressed like a common Undead Villager and hang out around the Cleric at the big bonfire right at the start of the Undead Village. Even though I am half the size and they are told there is an invader, I surprise so many people here as they attempt to kite out the Cleric.

That's just good role-playing. You're forgiven

I didn’t beat Elden Ring at lvl 1 with daedicars woe equipped so I’ve never really beat the game apparently

You're forgiven. I'll assume you've played through the game as a wretch, barefisted - that's enough

I closed the portcullis at dragon bridge on about a half dozen unlucky chosen undead. And introduced probably triple digits of afk chosen undead to the dark hand R2.

I'm not remorseful about it. But I do know it was wrong.

Wow that's evil. You've probably helped just as many people as a summon, right?
Right?
- Oh sure. I helped lots of people with O&S and the gargoyles and Artorius.
  But I also invaded upper blight town with a bow.
  And invaded sens fortress with great magic shield and a rapier.
  I don't really like my odds upon reflection.

i got every achievement in elden ring on release except for ranni ending. still don't have it.

You, probably:
You stay away from my wife

I looked up where to find the Zweihander :|

You're forgiven. Peak weapon

I have never used the Claymore or the Zweihander

😭 How dare you

For my first ER run I had to summon mimic tear to beat Maliketh, XD. No even Malenia stomped me that hard. Now I wished he had more hp.

Brother, you're forgiven and were never guilty to begin with. Summons are part of the game - they're fair use
- Haha, thanks.. (I'm not a bro, tho (⁀ᗢ⁀) ) Mentioned it 'cause it felt like an absolute cheese. From -dead as soon as phase 2 starts-, to -first try with mimic-.
Maliketh is fun becsuae if you go beat Bernhal before him, you get an item similar to Margit/Mohg's Shackle that can parry Maliketh no matter where he is in the room when he uses any attacks that have the yellow effects.
- Maliketh is fun
  Totally, he bacame one of my favorite fights from the base game once I understood it.
  First time I was just not getting it, I didn't even bother with the claw ,I was not staying alive enough. When I turned to the summon the distraction made it too easy, so I didn't enjoy the fight either way.

I played the game with my monitor turned on... Basically cheating 😞

Ts ts ts, disappointing. If you haven't played through the game using the power of your imagination, have you really played it? Next thing you're gonna tell me your brother was playing the whole time and that the USB steering wheel wasn't even plugged in?
- What, steering wheel? Isn't it supposed to be played on a dancepad?

I don't use the evergaol relic

You're forgiven. If you kill enemies faster, you get less game for your money - you're just getting the most time out of your experience
- 😂😂
  Tbh I go back and forth. I've got one or two options that if I play them right my dps is pretty comparable

I tried to do a run of Elden Ring without visiting the Roundtable only to accidentally kill Varre, which prevented me from going to the DLC. Also, not visiting the Roundtable prevented me from entering Leyndell. The modern wrong warps didn't seem to work, so instead of finding a workaround, I just gave up on the run and haven't played ER since.

Killing Varre doesn't prevent you from going to the dlc but combined with not being able to pass Leyndell does. There's a small portal on the way to the Haligtree that takes you to Mogh's which now that i think about it makes a lot of sense

I believe the reason most players despise the Sovereign Libra fight is because it authentically emulates the experience of being an invader in Elden Ring. Hostsbare finally getting a taste of their own medicine, and they deserve it.
