1) Yeah. I read that you can raise your fire defense so high that you’re immune to his breath attacks, but he’ll still kill you if he lands on you. I only won because somepony else knew the fight and locked him into the pattern while I just fired lightning arrows from a bow at a distance/stayed out of the way.
First run through I was a 40/40 dual Caestus build with enough intelligence to cast Soul Arrow as a ranged attack. I had heavy armor, a bunch of health, and just dodged everything I could.
NG+ I’m in the process of switching to some slightly lighter armor in order to have a wider range of weapons at the ready. Also I boosted my intelligence up and now use Soul Spears, which I can easily cast with my dual Blue Flames. But I only just got the four great souls so I still have a ways.
2) Maybe?
3) B: Yes, bottled liquids. That was obviously the only issue.
4) Well, we don’t want her to go. But at the same rate, something’s got to give.
5) I’m not nearly that creative. I’ve just been working on the same old same old. Don’t have anything posted about it yet, but I’m working on how the different weapons behave differently without there being a strict progression of one type being better than another.
Wait a minute. I thought I answered those first two. Did tumblr lose the post? I gotta remember to check what else I might have lost!
1) Not allowed to have electronics, so I bring a notepad and jot some things down. But depending on the time of day, you’d be surprised how many ponies buy a ticket in only eight hours!
2) Yeah, you said you beat the Ruin Sentinels and the Royal Rat Vanguard too. Really I thought I answered this. Did I delete them by accident?
The Old Dragonslayer is basically a slowed down singular version of one of the hardest bosses from the first Dark Souls. I had so much practice from that fight that Old Dragonslayer has always been trivial.
Thus far, the two most difficult bosses for me were Ancient Dragon and Royal Rat Authority. They both beat me so badly.
1) I did get it, but thanks for letting me know anyway!
2) Lyra: NotCarlton.
Bon-Bon: Not- Shoot.
3) B: I don’t know what this means or why you would think I would. What are the numbers even supposed to be? A date? A combination? You said book. Is it an edition?
Sorry, Strawberry. I hope you’re okay!
4) I thought it might be boring, but really it seems more… lonely. I mean, you can find ways to pass the time, but there’s only one pony working at the counter during a shift. And depending on the time of day it might be an hour or more before anypony comes to buy a ticket.
And yes. They have a shift that just goes around relieving others so they can go on break. If I ever need to go, I can just send a message and they’ll send somepony to cover for me. But the ticket booth itself only closes for four hours a day, between two and six in the morning.
1) Believe it or not, I’ve heard that story before. As for educational, imagine playing that with only cursory knowledge of the world it’s describing.
3) Bon-Bon: Thank you, dear. I hope you’re happy too!
Lyra: A~nd no explanation.
Bon-Bon: Such a curious filly you are.
4) Ouch. Also sorry for the delay. Has it been resolved yet?
5) B: I don’t have normal days. I haven’t had a normal day in over five years. There’s always things to do. At the moment I’m still trying to find this pony. I had a decent lead for a while, but it led nowhere.
1) Not dying, mostly. That might sound easy, but it’s the hardest thing you’ll ever live through!
2) Bon-Bon: Your world is full of hate for things that are different. Reading a book wrote by a pony might not make you unique, but it would make you a minority. If anyone even believed it. There’d probably be as many articles bad-mouthing it as there would be ones questioning its authenticity.
Bon-Bon: I got Lyra a Kindle a few years back thinking maybe she’d use it to read something. My mistake.
3) That’s funny! I barely played 2, but I played 3 a bunch! 4 was great and I loved it too! Just not as much as 3.
I never played Mario is Missing. It looked boring.
4) Lyra: Yes! Thank you, Strawberry! I always love eating parmesan pasta!
Bon-Bon: Thank you very much for inviting me, Strawberry.
B: Sarcasm doesn’t suit you. You will never see me.
1) I broke it. And no thank you.
2) Yes. YES! I will control chaos! I will control discord! I will be a dark and terrible queen! And I might punch Lucario IN THE MOUTH!
3) I think the last time I cared about E3 was back when G4 was ZDTV. You know, when it was good. For the most part I just wait until they’re on the market.
Wow, there’s been eight of those? I was pretty good with the 64 version. And the original’s Rainbow Road was super hard.
4) Sure, I’m alright. How are you?
B: I’m fine.
1) B: The road to ruin is paved with good intentions. You would be a liability. Any information given to you could be used against us. Also not sure where you got the idea that we’re not doing anything. It is a slow, meticulous process. Not every day can yield results. But the tide can turn in our favor in an instant. What we cannot afford is undue risk.
2) I’ve looked around enough to know that’s not true. There are tons of text tumblrs! They- Well, we just sort of get buried in the overwhelming number of drawblogs.
Incidentally, this message is completely unrelated to the recent drawings I did. It just sort of happened that way.
3) B: I was born in Ponyville; I grew up here. My family moved after I joined CUE and they were told I had died… I can appreciate the recommendations, but I don’t need them. I’ve been around enough.
He was Kwame from Captain Planet?! Oh my Cels, he was wasn’t he?! I can hear it in my head! I never noticed!
Bon-Bon had left the TV on a few days ago while she was cooking something and I caught a few portions of this show called America’s Secret Slang. That’s the sort of thing I’m talking about. Why specific aspects of human society, of any culture, became how they are.
1) Before I found out, I thought it was Johto. Not because it was amazing or anything, but because after you beat the league there, you go to Kanto too.
2) Usually saying you’re sick makes ponies want to stay away from you.
3) Ominous, but thanks!
4) B: Let’s just say I’m more than familiar with Ponyville. Perhaps I prefer the hustle of the city, or maybe the grass is just always greener. It’s hard to tell.
5) B: You can bark up this tree all day.
1) Thank.
2) Verbal irony, or brogre master race? You decide!
3) Well, I never got to visit Hoenn, so I’m at least interested. I’ve heard more than once that it’s the fan favorite area from the series. Pokemon Art Academy looks nice. More of something I’d expect to see online for free, though.
4) I know! And how about the thing just transporting itself to some random place in Ponyville and sprouting up! It’s like the thing is sentient! I’d honestly be afraid to live there.
5) B: For clarity’s sake, a theoretical puppet master organization wouldn’t be the one doing the cohesion in our example. It’s you. Right now.
1) Bon-Bon: Aw. You’re just the sweetest thing! I’m waiting for my favorite author to release another novel, so for now I’m reading a book called The Third Eye Alumni. Its draw seems to be that the story is told through the villains’ perspective, which are a group of psychics that use their powers to predict and manipulate events. It sounds smart, but its execution is pretty stupid. I might not finish it.
2) I try to. I don’t always remember though. Back in R/B/Y I had to go all the way back through the Unknown Dungeon because of that.
3) B: If you think one of the most well-trained guards in Equ-
Ex. Ex-Guard.
B: … One of the formerly most well-trained guards in Equestria can be coerced into revealing information against his will, then you’re not qualified to operate a push mower.
4) Oh, well I’m glad you’re not upset! I just wanted to make sure you knew for the future.
1) Oh no! I don’t think you had to do that! Unless they removed the function in X and Y, any legendary you beat on accident will respawn after you defeat the Elite Four and Champion again!
I’m so sorry! I’d have told you if I knew you had a problem!
2) B: I didn’t say the talent got little attention, I said the mark did. You might not understand the meaning behind the mark. You’re looking for a picture.
B: And… I don’t know if I will or not. I shouldn’t, but I might.
3) I don’t know! I’d like to hope we’d have a library somewhere in town. But for all we know Prin… Twilight might convert part of her castle into a public library. I could see her doing that.
4) B: And you would spread unrest under covert military conditions where every minor outburst must be treated as though an insurmountable front could result from inaction.
5) Lyra: Sure! I’ll try to get a picture later of him. All the ones we have are pretty old.
Bon-Bon: Oh, I’ll live. But hey! Thanks for thinking of me! And the store is fine. Just in that gentle lull between major sale periods. Gives me more time to read.
1) Ma~ybe. I’ll have to find out sometime soon!
2) B: I find your frank, but genuine concern… strange. Very well. The cutie mark is well known, but few pay any attention to it.
3) B: That wouldn’t help anyway. I use illusionary magic to mask my identity. You’re looking for somepony else who has my cutie mark. You’ll never find me.
4) Me too. Not that destroying half of a forested biome, along with hundreds of books is a minor incident.
B: Serve your country by spreading peace. Fail to do that and you only prove you can’t be trusted.
B: You can’t do anything about it anyway. Maybe nopony can.
B: Nightmare Moon was a mere ten generations ago, yet it was reduced to legend. Myth. Chrysalis, Discord, Sombra, Tirek- Ponies might be aware of Tartarus, but if they really knew what it housed? And all that pales in comparison.
B: Fear. Fear breeds panic. Panic breeds fear. And it all just makes things easier for them. Fear gives them opportunity. Panic and it’s already too late. Too late for you. Too late for your family. Too late for your friends.
B: Control, sedation, peace- Peace above knowledge. Peace above fairness. Peace above happiness, if necessary. It’s the only way we’ve slowed them this much.
B: Altering minds? We should be so lucky. Those involved are completely aware. Struggling for an eternity until there’s no will left to fight. Then watching in horror. Helpless against forces beyond their control, without so much as the strength to call out. To end their own suffering. To prevent the suffering they will soon cause.
B: And yet you ask, like a brave little foal. As though knowledge will somehow protect you. And I say to you again…You have no idea what fear is. If you did, it would already be too late.
1) That… was the worst thirteen minutes of… anything, that I’ve ever sat all the way through. Ah… I don’t even understand. It was obviously intentionally bad. Was it actively parodying itself, even as it played?
2) Well, it certainly didn’t look good last time I saw it. Everything though? Probably not. I mean, it had a basement.
3) B: I don’t believe my talent leaves much to be discussed.
B: If you’re not willing to try, then it sounds to me like you’re not invested enough. Certainly wouldn’t shorten my lifespan.
4) I considered it, briefly. But it was just a phase. It’s ogre now.
1) Oh my Cels! Are you alright?! I heard you were hurt!
The castle? It’s ugly. It would be ugly in the Crystal Empire. But in Ponyville? It’s ugly and out-of-place.
2) B: Looking for ponies who are earnest on the internet. That sounds like a fabulous idea.
3) Now this I had not heard of. The subjects on the wiki sound ridiculous. But if they were true, I could certainly see a point to the show.
4) I know I said it before, but… I mean, Death Knights start at 50 and literally get to 58 in about two or three hours. The big difference being, by the time they added Death Knights, the level cap was 80. The cap in Tera is still 60. Not that I don’t want to try it when I get a chance.
5) B: Well, if you’re so interested in making a game of it. There’s only so many cutie marks. You creatures clearly have access to resources from our world. Surely you can find some kind of listing.
