The Nineteenth Byte

Actually, the more that I think about it, the thief is actually one of the harder starting classes. His saving graces are the Master Key and the fact that he can branch out easily, but realisticly until you perfect the shield parry 1 on 1 combat will be hard.

But when you do get the timing down, you start dealing insane damage with backstabs and ripostes.

Riker

oh cool

so tl;dr; learn to parry

Григорий Перельман

YES. You have a really crappy shield and you fight at close range.

With the master key you'll be able to get a crossbow early on, but bolts are expensive.

Riker

hm ok

Григорий Перельман

On the bright side, thief is the best at fighting bosses.

Bosses tend to be slow, allowing you to pull of your high damage more, and ranged tends to be not as effective on them.

Many hit hard (or even kill you instantly), so the higher speed is a better advantage than the defence offered by classes like Warrior and Knight.

Most important thing in Dark Souls: learn to use roll effectively

Григорий Перельман

YES.

Riker

hm, ok

Григорий Перельман

Your parry does nothing against a guy with a mace literally 10 times your size.

Riker

lol

Have you met Havel the Hammer Guy? He's the guy on the round staircase that kills you instantly.

How does this post get me suspend? There was no conversations going on and it was a funny video.

The video is harmless and clean. I mean Studio C's goal is to provide clean family friendly comedy. Wikipidia say: "The show aims to produce clean, family-oriented comedy"

I do not disagree btw. As i do not nkow why

@Mego could you shed some light?

Conor O'Brien

because it's noise, probably

Down Christopher

Ok but Riker was not kicked for posting "noise"

About 5-10 minutes before (the message was about 5-10 away chat was inactive)

Riker

@DownChristopher which noise?

@DownChristopher prolly because the thumbnail

ATaco

I personally feel we should start enforcing On-topic discussion inside this chat.

Riker

@ГригорийПерельман nope

@Riker Getting kicked based off of a thumbnail that is not bad but may make the video seem bad is over reactive

Riker

doens't matter really

ASCII-only

@ATaco why though

ATaco

Discussion about moderator action that feels unjustified should be taken to the meta.

Riker

you posted a link with a possilby offensive thumbnail

you knew it would onebox

Down Christopher

@DownChristopher that has a moderate relation to the topic of this chat

ATaco

@ASCII-only There have been multiple times I've been trying to have a discussion about something PPCG related, only to be talked over by someone talking about Video Game Music or something.

Riker

computers in general

Down Christopher

@Riker How is that offensive? It is a dude with a mask on...

Whatever going to meta

Riker

it looked to me like a guy getting mugged

@ATaco You do know there are other PPCG chatrooms right?

ATaco

Q: Question about mod action taken

Message that got me suspended... If you watch the video it is a clean funny video by Studio C and Studio C's goal is "to produce clean, family-oriented comedy for a national audience". I do not understand how that is worth of suspending me. I do not think noise applies since literally 5 messages ...
