Did three separate runs of 100 dark wraiths each and these were the numbers: Run 1: 30 titanite chunks, 2 dark hands Run 2: 33 titanite chunks, 6 dark hands Run 3: 40 titanite chunks, 4 dark hands, 1 titanite slab Had been hearing that the slab was more common, but from the data looks to be still pretty rare <1%. All runs were done with 410 item discovery.
From what I've seen in videos, the dark wraiths seem a lot easier to kill in this game than in DS3. I'm heading that way soon with my sorcerer build. Hopefully I can one-shot them at this point.
Alright fuck! Manus is destroying me. And for some reason there are no summon signs anywhere. I can summon Sif, but he doesn’t do shit.
I’m level 73. For some reason, I haven’t seen a single summon sign in this entire DLC area. I haven’t been invaded either.
That's unfortunate. Manus is one of those bosses that almost requires assistance unless you're a super strong faith build. I know my girlfriend will be gaming today, so I'll mention it to her to put a summon down in the area.
I just did Manus the other day with a fairly normal build. Silver Knight Sword +5, Dragon Crest Shield, ring that reduces physical damage, Artorias armour +3, SL 65 or something and points mostly in HP, Endurance, Strength and dex (but don't tell anyone). Strategy was basically wait for attacks where he stays still for a short period, hit twice then back up out of range enough to avoid his wombo combo. Once he's just past a quarter down always have the silver pendant equipped and use it just before he fires a magic attack. Took a while to get the strategy down as I couldn't remember what I did last time, but got him down eventually. Went and killed Sif (was going for the bonus cutscene with him), Seath and The Bed of Chaos after that, going back for Kalameet now.
Killed Manus, finally! I realized it was just easier to block his attacks. I just want getting the roll timing down. And to solve my summoning issue, I had to make some changes on my router. My PS4 was set to NAT3. I set it to NAT2 and I could see summon signs again. Not sure what that was all about. I could see summon signs just fine before I started the Artorious content.
Oh, okay. I thought there was something I missed. I think that's the worst death in the game, besides Precilla.
FYI, You can actually kill him outside of his lair with arrows. Very boring, but a hilarious oversight on FROM's end.
Kind of like the twin demons in Demon Souls. They were a nightmare to kill normally, but if you plunked one from outside until the other appeared, life was definitely better. Of course you needed a LOT of arrows...
If you invade someone doing it, act like you are just watching and then WotG them off at the last moment.
Okay, this hacking crap is starting to take the fun out of the game. Nearly one in every three invaders is hacking in some way, from wide damage radiuses to inability to lock on to skipping, it is super freaking annoying and childish. If you need to hack a game in order to do good, then you just suck in general and shouldn't play. Gads I wish there were a way to report players.
