A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

8) No Bots.

Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

What's that video game boss you've never been able to beat, or took you the longest to beat? (sh.itjust.works)

Nameless king. I finally caved and accepted I would have to summon to beat him... Ah fuck.

The only soulsborne I didn't beat, but I didn't play after getting hard stuck on him. I did beat everyone solo though, which is why it was such a decision to think about summoning.

Depending on your attitude about cheesing: his first phase is just wail on him with lightning and second phase is incredibly easy to kite with a bow.

Yeah, that was a tough fight to learn. I'd say try to get through the dragon phase consistently, then once you can do that, really focus on the Nameless King's moves. He only has a few and they all have an appropriate call/response pacing.

ALSO, Dark Souls 3 is secretly a rhythm game. Put on some headphones and turn up the music. You're dancing with the bosses just as much as you're fighting them.
