Question (new player) Parrying, dashing, dodging or dps'ing?

4 Upvotes

I wouldn't say I'm an experienced player, so far I'm on 2nd cell difficulty through decent pain. I tend to split scrolls like 14-7-6 on the winning 1st cell run, cuz it gives at least some damage but still keeps bosses from one-shotting me.

I rely on parrying a lot, even though it's really hard to time right especially if you don't know the enemy, I still enjoy the mechanic very much. But is it even worth it? Should I split like this and learn more defences (i still play aggressuvely with no much dodging, and once i got to this sub turns out its a tank build thing, lmao), or should i just git gud in dodging and go into hard damage with min health?

What are the optimal builds? Is aggresiveness not the best strat?

So basically, I was watching a YT video of tips and tricks blah blah, and the guy said smth about the philosopher stone and how rare it is, said he only encountered it once even after 3 years of playing the game, when I got it at first (in the first image) in the prisoners quarters i was caught off guard and soooo suprised, I mean something with a less than 0.2% chance of appeared was right before me and ate it up ofc, but the a few runs later me and the stone meet again in the prisoners quarters (2nd image) as if destiny was ringing us together and ofc, I was double...no triple suprised because damn, How lucky do I have to be?πŸ˜‚ it was all in custom mode tho so idk if that plays a factor but Kudos to my luck eh?

Is there anyway to get back up or across so I can get to Guardians Haven? I thought I could jump and climb to get to the door on the left but apparently not.

EDIT: I somehow managed to spawn to the right of the wall I was on after falling in the lava. I also found the drop down for this secret, landed straight in the lava and died...

Question (general) Just about to enter Undying Shores...

5 Upvotes

Just entering Undying Shores for the first time and feeling somewhat apprehensive, I hope it isn't going to end up in a shit show like the first time I discovered Derelict Distillery.

Have left the game for now to have a breather before tackling this biome but any advice on what to expect or guidance on how to get through it with minimal damage?

Thanks in advance y'all. ☺️

Question (new player) My Impaler has +100% damage to targets covered in burning oil, AND spreads inflammable oil on the enemy. Should I buy Pyrotechnics or Fire Blast?

The ghosts of the fallen monsters helping you don't only make it cooler but also way too overpowered. The combos are pretty good and it covers a large area. All in all i wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of this.

Question (general) 100% Game pass save file

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I accidentally deleted my save file and I'm looking for a 100% completion save file for the Xbox Game Pass version on PC. All the save files I can find online are for the Steam version. Does anyone have a Game Pass save file they could share with instructions on how to set it up? Any help or file links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
