The Weeping Peninsula. It's easy enough to do that, then Stormveil, then Liurna. The road is just in the south east region of the map in Limgrave.

To add to this the ideal progression is:
Limgrave West
Limgrave East
Weeping Peninsula
Liurnia
Caelid South
Altus (plus mansion)
Capitol

After that is fairly linear.
The underground segments can be peppered in based on personal ability and threshold for frustration.

Your stats are perfectly fine for where you're at.
And a +6 weapon is more than enough.

Besides the vigor, how (bad) am I doing stats wise?

What area are you in?
Level doesn't tell as much as where you are will.

In fairness, the oneshot I'm talking about is one particularly easy-to-dodge and hard hitting attack from the hardest boss in the game lol.

Oh you mean from the rosebud?
Fair enough.

pegusus123456 posted...

Nah, I disagree with that. I have 54 vigor or something and there are still certain attacks that will nearly oneshot me. Better to drink two flasks to fill up than to save one and just be dead.

That said, I think 22 vigor is fine if TC is still just in Limgrave.

I love how different experiences can be for each player.
In the builds I've used 40 or 45 vigor has never been one shot by any attack, even with one scarseal on.

Level vigor regularly as you play.
Zones do not scale to your level, they are locked.
Use summons if you want, they help.
Weapon level and infusion matters WAY more than damaging stats until you hit 40 or up in a stat with A scaling.

My breakpoints for vigor are:
Limgrave: 15-20
Liurnia: 20-25
Caelid south: 20-30
Plateau: 30-35
Capitol: 35-40
Mountaintop: 40-45

Any vigor higher than that is whatever. I usually stop at 40 personally.

It was fine as far as mindless entertainment.
As someone with experience with mental illness, self hard, and suicidal tendencies I didn't really have a problem with the show personally.
I can see why some people would have a problem though.

Tbh, I do think a series like this can help educate people on how awful Dahmer was, and how awful cops can be; what better way to do educate young people than a Netflix series? And it is well-made.

I don't think it's made for people who fetishize serial killers; if people choose to masturbate over Dahmer, that's on them. It's to show how awful he was.

Did.....did you forget to switch accounts?
Lmao

Got it on launch day

Wtf is latinx?

A very weird and overbearing attempt to create a gender neutral word that already exists (Latin).

Imagine 90+ posts of arguing with Scotty lmao

None.
I got sick very early this year and my PTO got eaten up.

I usually get 10 days, plus sick days, plus personal days.

Neverwinter is.......fine.
It's not great but it's entertaining enough.
I also tried Bless and it was......fine.

Didnt an entire Cartoon Network show get lost recently?

Why do we, as a society, tolerate such ignorant hateful people under the guise of "journalism"?

Aren't there laws against reporting factually incorrect bullshit?

A person who isn't conservative/Republican wouldn't feel the argue to say perceived, mostly irrelevant/false for the vast majority of America, problems about electric vehicles when someone says that right-wingers are foolish in their hate of EV's.

I saw a discussion about EVs and talked about EVs.
I'm a little confused on your wording though are you saying you think I am right wing?
Because you've obviously not seen me post very much if so.

I don't hate EVs, but they're just not entirely feasible in my area yet.

Once there's more infrastructure, and they figure out how to make them more reliable in winter it'll be fine.
As is, EV owners in my area have 2 vehicles. One for june-september, one for every time else.

Edit: I'm also not conservative/republican

Nope. It's just something bigots say when they don't like representation or changes. People said it about Mortal Kombat 11 because the female characters wore more clothing than previous games. Result? It became the best selling Mortal Kombat of all time.

This.

Prismsblade posted...

Although it can also backfire like with the ghostbusters reboot, and especially much smaller companys like G4.

The movie performed poorly because it was simply a bad movie.
The bigots being who they are and vocally opposing the movie didn't help, but they weren't going to go see it anyhow.

Overall still funny, but some of the jokes aged like bread.

BMI is garbage and everyone on earth should stop using it.

"We lost, so we're simply going to say that land is ours so that if we attack it's just self defense!"

Doesn't work that way man. The world at large sees exactly what you're doing.

Im throwing It Follows and the original Japanese Ringu into the pot.

Both have amazing tension and are surprisingly low budget. Ringu is much better than the American one in my opinion too.

I would also toss in the Evil Dead remake as its just a blender of a movie. Great practical effects too. Doesnt top the originals of course but holds its own better than a lot of remakes.

I will argue to the death that It Follows was not scary or tense, and is in fact a horror comedy.
To the death sir.

GameGodOfAll posted...

Yeah classic. Watch Tucker & Dale vs. Evil if you haven't. More straight comedy, but it's still similar.

Oh and Behind the Mask. Think you'll like that.

I've watched Tucker & Dale and it's absolutely amazing.
I'll check out behind the mask

My original statement was that he's considered a "premier athlete". Others said he was in peak physical shape.

The point was going back to the Media perception of how you need to look like Thor to be considered "In Shape", where as Alosno looks to be anything but "in shape" yet he's one of the strongest players in the league.

Yes. I'll stand corrected rhat "peak shape" was bad word choice.
I should have simply said "in very good shape" and left it there.

bigblu89 posted...

But that's what this topic originally about. How the media sets outrageous standards of what's considered "masculine" in men or "beautiful" in women, and how, like women moving towards being "beautiful" no matter what the magazines say, men are now accepting the same thing.

So you're basically saying exactly what the original post in this topic is supporting.

He's saying the problem doesn't exist.
Which is incredibly ignorant and harmful.
All he's doing is propping up the existing problem, and insulting people because he has no argument.
His stance is not based in science or fact, but in the fact that he's ignorant and apathetic.

MrDrMan posted...

Thats like saying because they use luxury cars in James Bond movies then someone is looking down on Honda Civics.

Its not true. Youre projecting your own insecurity. What happens on TV is irrelevant. Its not real life and nobody smart holds you the same standards.

Everyones talking about Little Mermaid lately. Do they expect you be a fish too? Completely made up narrative.

Body image in media is a serious issue.
It's been talked about and evaluated for decades now.
If you think it's a "made up narrative" then you're entirely beyond help.

I'm perfectly comfortable in my body and with my life.
I just know that media and social media have been a huge detriment to mental health as far as body image goes, across both genders.

Maybe look up some studies on the topic before looking like a fool.

MrDrMan posted...

Who is looking down upon him? I keep asking and nobody is answering.

If you can't see the media push towards the first body type over the last 50 years then I can't help you.
I wish I could live my life with my eyes closed.

Bold of you to say that when Metagross exists.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

This is more accurate.
And "visibly muscular" is often applied to upper body (pecs, abs, arms).
Compare these two images.
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/1/3/AASzMlAADuW5.jpg

Now this man is well defined, visibly muscular, but not "gym bro" level. I would define this as a visibly muscular man.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/1/2/AAafKOAADuTw.jpg
This man looks entirely average. Not defined or even very visible as far as muscle goes. He's got a layer of fat on him, and isn't overly lean. Even his arms aren't very defined or "muscular".
Yet he is a premiere athlete, and in peak physical shape.

The media has, for the longest time, pushed the first body type as "ideal" and "better". That every man should have that type of body, and having less is shameful.
It's in advertisements, hollywood, magazines. Prevalent.

The second body type is "undesirable" and "unattractive" by typical beauty standards. Yet he's inarguable a strong and very athletic man.

His body should not be looked down on.

It is wild how "provoking other users to react negatively" is not actually enforced.

HHH is making statements based on logic and awareness.

Everyone else is responding with slurs and insults. CLEARLY things that would fall under "provoking other users to react negatively."

But because taking a reasonable stance on police shootings is not socially acceptable in today's climate, the rule is not enforced.

You can also shut up and go away.

Lot of people with absolute shit-takes today.

Cabin in the Woods is my favorite "horror" movie to this day.
A deconstruction and critique of the genre.

I miss how fast food places looked in the 90s.
They had personality and charm.
Now they're all the exact same beige sterile experience.

I remember when pizza hut had dine in and a salad bar man.

What am I "ignorant" of?

Well right now your ignorant of your own ability to shut up and leave.
You know you can do that right?
And should.

HHH_is_the_game posted...

I fail to see how slurs, demeaning language, stereotyping, anger directed at a whole group of people whether or not they acted poorly, is ok because its a job?

You are literally too ignorant to argue with.

I'll just repeat myself instead, go the fuck away. Nobody wants you in this conversation with you garbage opinions.

WizardPowers posted...

The only people with that body look will be defensive linemen or some strong men

Again, his body is exaggerated I'll give you that.

But someone being 6ft and 200-225 pounds with fat and paunch, isn't inherently unhealthy.
They could be well within every metric outside of upper body fat.
And someone being as muscular as Hemsworth in his other movies can be (and often is either Hollywood and media) very unhealthy.

HHH_is_the_game posted...

Yeah, I get it, it's easy to fall back on that when people are angry. But again if I posted a video of a terrorist attack it wouldn't be right for the entire thread to be people slurring and demeaning muslims. The topic of discussion isn't an excuse at all to let that type of behavior slide, and again, most people would realize that in another situation. They're all acting like the exact racist republicans they hate

Cop isn't a race or religion, it's a job.

You fucking bet that people would be insulting and demeaning all terrorists though.

Shut the fuck up.

I will say that statistically yes, there are more male child predators.

On a personal level, I don't consider my older sister to be a male.

HHH_is_the_game posted...

It just sucks to see acceptable targets of societal hatred and bullying, for people that literally risk their lives to try to help and protect the same people demeaning them. If this was about a race, or even a religion, this would not be tolerated, yet because it's cops, suddenly it's the cool things to do to throw out hate and slurs.

I can just imagine how these same people would feel if suddenly all the police decided to listen to what people want and all just quit. Then I think we'd see real quick how much people enjoy having a cop-less society.

Can you shut the fuck up and go away? Nobody wants to hear this ignorant bullshit.

WizardPowers posted...

End game Thor was severely unhealthy though. I'm pretty sure they even had scenes of him stuffing his face with donuts and soda

You don't need visible muscles. But living like end game Thor is not something we should be okay with

If he were human yes, we could say he's unhealthy.

However he's not. He was still fully capable of massive feats of strength and endurance.
I wasn't referring to his lifestyle, simply his appearance. His appearance was very exaggerated, but it's very very possible to have a similar paunchy body type and not be unhealthy.

Me too, I thought some girl escaped from a kidnapping and then ran into some wild boar that killed her.

In related to the actual story.

Is the idea that while getting out of the car she was shot as a suspect? Or is it she was killed in the crossfire because the dad that shot his wife started a shootout with the police.

She was shot at after the suspect was already down.
Zero excuse.
