Making them toxic and poisoned. It's so funny seeing them rush to me in a panic trying to kill me quickly. On the side note, I finally succeeded in my first blind parry!
Yes I have to admit.. since I don't heal during a battle once i'm poisoned I get this uncontrollable urge to hurry up and finish the fight..which I lose most of the time cause I lose all my sences while rushing..I can see how that would look funny..lol
Man, that gets me everytime. Especially in Painted World. For some reason, I always brain fart and forget to buy the good purple moss before I enter the painting of no-return. Poison is really not that bad at all, once you've farmed the Blighttown swamp a good few times, and have a decent set of armor, poison can usually run it's course without needing moss, maybe one or two Estus. But the toxic, that stuff is brutal. Together, I'd probably start freaking out too! From now on I'm going to keep an anti-toxin on my hotbar at all times.
I did that a few times for my ninja toon. Poison knives + poison arrows + dung. Tanks are the easiest. Once killed a host with both effects after he killed me. Good fun.
Am I the only one who isn't phased one bit when I get poisoned or intoxicated? Those status ailments don't affect my behavior at all. Could be because I'm a natural rusher though! When you rush all the time, and are in control doing it, an enemy who poisons you is the same as any other. I'm a very aggressive PvPer.
Like blaine i dont care if you poison me. Most of the time it goes like this.... Pie or knife is thrown, i let the 1st hit, dodge the second with a side roll, then sprint in and get an attack in as they throw the 3rd. By then im poisoned, so i pretend im running away to use a herb, this makes most of them sprint after me, and thats when i 2hand and combo of death. Then i shrug as they are dying and pop a herb.
