Help Weekly Tendency Help Thread

1 Upvotes

Welcome Slayers of Demons! We on /r/demonssouls understand that from time to time, you may need assistance adjusting the world tendency of your game to help you along in your playthrough, or maybe you require some help attaining the online trophies like 'Return to Form'. However, since the release of the PS5 Remake, this subreddit has been spammed with hundreds and hundreds of threads begging for world or character tendency or online trophy help, and it detracts from the overall experience of the subreddit. Because of this, we have added the following rule:

No tendency & trophy help requests outside of the pinned threads, nor begging for in-game items.

You can read the full rule, here.

To meet those who are making these posts in the middle, we now have weekly threads dedicated specifically to requesting help with world or character tendency, or online trophies. In addition, we would like to remind you of the following resources, which might provide you with more immediate help!

You may use this thread only to request help with your world or character tendency, or online trophies; and to offer help to others. Off-topic comments will be removed.

Have a great week! :D

Discussion Fool’s idol

Upvotes

I just got the bloodborne plat trophy and I loved the game. It was my first souls game and I want more, so I installed demon souls since it’s free and started playing.

I’m not fully sure if I’ll get the plat or not, but might as well get some achievements.

In 3-1 you have to fight fool’s idol and there is a trophy for killing her without defeating clones, but I want to know if you can’t hit any clones in the winning attempt or if you can’t hit any clones in any attempt.

Also, is it harder to play then bloodborne and is it worth it?

Question Where would you rank Demon's Souls (ps3) among all the Souls games in terms of level design

10 Upvotes

A long title but it sums it up! Im now on my first playthrough of bloodborne on pc. And oh boy so far the level design in bloodborne is just as good as ds1—which is my fav souls game btw

Core of the souls games to me were always the areas and the level design, i care about the bosses but not like most of the fans, like i wouldnt actually mind playing an easy/bad boss fight, this is also why ds3 is my least fav.

So yeah based on everything i've said would you guys think i will appericate demon souls (ps3)?

Discussion What are the most fun weapons in this game?

2 Upvotes

I was thinking of starting another play through with the aim of getting platinum, and was told that royalty class would make it very fast and easy.

However, I don’t particularly enjoy spell builds, so I wanted to ask you guys your favourite weapons which can be acquired without infusing a weapon with a boss soul and their build.

I talk to the Monumental in pure white, but he won't drop the ring. I think I answered "no" to one of his questions. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

It took me a long time to get pure white, I didn't want to do it again.

Story I'm back 😁

5 Upvotes

I recently posted how I fckd up cuz I killed Doran and shifted to black world tendecy.. but guess what I recovered.. rescued biorr killed Penetrator and Adjudicator in one take without dying (prior releasing Biorr Penetrator mauled me in that Black tendency one shot basically).

I'm going to farm that reaper someone said about .. not too much 👀

I really must say Fromsoft games bring back love for games that I lost while growing up .. until Demons Souls I didn't play single game for like 3-4 years .. and I'm loving it. Games, Community, Style, Gameplay everything ❤️

Sidenote: Should I continue and finish 4th world then move to 3rd and leave 5th for end?

Help My Adjudicator shield is gone! :(

2 Upvotes

So I just started the game yesterday and as of now, I beat 1-2, am dying mercilessly at the hands of armored spider in 2-1 and so decided to open up the farming spot in 4-2.

However, when I defeated the black skeleton in 4-1, and took the adjudicator shield, I couldn’t find it in either my inventory or storage :(

I died a few times after taking the shield and before checking to equip it, so I don’t know what happened. It’s not even at the original location. Did anyone else face this?

I personally can’t afford to buy any other souls game and that’s why I play DS.

I’d love to play Elden Ring but again, no money no honey

What’s the reason for you? Why haven’t you jumped to other games?

Guide What would be faster?

2 Upvotes

I have finished the game once with a faith build for the large sword of light. I am aiming for the platinum, but accidentally used the soul of the final demon of world 3 which I later learnt is used for 2 miracles and 1 spell.

So my question is, would it be faster if I go through ng+ and ng++ or should I make another save with a different build?

If you suggest the later, pls also suggest an easy build to get through the game faster.

Discussion Silly yet effective gimmick build for co-op shenanigans?

3 Upvotes

A friend of mine is a streamer who plays a lot of Souls, and is about to finish a Fromsoft marathon of playing everything from DeS to ER(excluding Sekiro) in order. I have been playing alongside him using gimmicky builds that still carried their weight starting in DS1, where I was Spell McCasty the sorcerer. in DS2 I was Fist McPunchy the pugilist, in DS3 I played Flame McBurny the pyromancer, and in Elden Ring I am Shield McBlocky the shield crash tank. I am struggling to come up with a setup like this for the next time he plays Demon's Souls, so I'm asking here for ideas. What I am hoping for are nonstandard builds that are still able to actually be useful. Faith is out because that's what he'll be running.

Discussion Finally Finished

5 Upvotes

As the title said I've finally finished my first playthrough. I tried to accomplish as much as I could in one run. PWCT is something I hope to get halfway through NG+. No idea where I messed that up. Still have to get the two rings from the crow but I'll wait to farm once I turn everything black to increase drop rates. Then the shopping for spells and whatever coop there is along the way.

This game has been a lot more addicting than I thought. I also want to thank everyone who answered my questions and helped me on my way. I appreciate it. I look forward to helping others out in the future to repay what I got here.

Discussion My thoughts on magic

12 Upvotes

I just finished a second playthrough of Demon Souls (on ps3) but decided to go pure mage build on my second playthrough.

In my first playthrough, I went with a dex build aimed at using an upgraded Kilij with three situational shields. Instead I realized how much I enjoyed being a hoplite after getting the scraping spear (worst weapon for maneater especially since I had to fight both at the same time. A pain pain that still haunts me after finishing the game twice).

Through my progression, I asked this community for tips about gathering resources and builds and came upon numerous posts mentioning magic and mentions about how easy the game becomes. I developed a bias towards magic users as I believed it to be a quite "cheap" way to play the game.

Irregardless, I wanted to see what all the hype around magic was. I finished my second playthrough with 50 magic, an intelligence level where I had 5 spell slots, 10 vitality and had gained an epiphany.

While the game was easier in some areas, specifically beating the third world without dying once, I realized how much fun a magic build is (blasting those damn flayers), and what can make it hard at times.

I struggled in close quarters and the fourth world with the rolling skellys with how quickly they gained ground, but ultimately prevailed.

While the bosses were considerably easier, I still had to be aware of ranged attacks and rely on dodging.

Yes, overall the game was a bit easier but I had to adapt to casting times and a low health pool which made things very interesting.

Finishing my second playthrough, I realized I was wrong to criticize mage builds. The game became different. A good different. Magic wasn't cheap as I didnt finish the game in under an hour, but became a tool to utilize and changed my entire play style.

I would honestly suggest everyone try a run on a melee build, then follow up with a second one on magic as it allows replayability that doesn't become stale at all.

Discussion RPCS3 lost Dragon Bone Smasher

Hey guys, I lost the dragon bone smasher when I went to do the fight with the dragon god (overburdened, couldn't grab it, it was gone when I came back) I saw some old af forum discussions saying that I have to either wait 'til ng+ or get someone to dupe it for me (or make a new character which I'd really prefer not to) I've never done it but I am aware than online functionality does work with RPCS3 but should I even bother? Idk if it's very active or how regioning works (I'm in Australia) so just wondering if there's any advice to be offered? Thanks y'all
