The Noble Knights - Maxed thread 2

Don't have it or the soul, and it would only be like 40 AR higher then the dagger (still 60 below the sword).

As an aside, while going to rescue Logan to get his armor, I found out that WoG can set off the Sen's Pressure Plates...

EDIT: Crap, forgot you need a decent Int to buy his spells. Will killing him make him drop his armor?

ll nice find. That would work for force too making it worthwhile using. Well no really but still.
What is your build?

Just this

I think I'll just try killing him, and if it doesn't drop his armor I'll try using Lady Anveena against the Four Kings...

Just to be clear when i said you may use any toon i still meant using the same toon for the entire challenge. I think he does drop his armour, Ill check the wiki.

Ok, cool. That's a load off my mind.

...He didn't drop anything...

He only drops them when he's hollow. I didnt realise it would make a difference. Time to hit the trade forum.

DoughGuy wrote:He only drops them when he's hollow

Which I can't get him to become, because my int was too low to buy his spells (and now he's dead)...

Well, I gave the challenge the old college try lol.

Edited my post lol. If you want to be a real man I'll let you fight he 4 kings without using a chestpiece or headgear and still be eligible.

Eh, why not? I'm tough like that!

Now to go kill Sif...

EDIT: I think I need to mess around with Mugen to try to scam more poise out of my build for the 4 Kings...

Ugh, tomorow I get to see if 40 poise is enough to resist an attack by the 4 Kings...

Hmmmm, I think you'll be out of luck. Why dont you just use havels gauntlets and leggings? (Yes that is what I meant by ANY knightly armour)

Actually, I was going to remove my RoFaP for the Nito fight, so I could throw on Havel's Ring for 4K and do that. So I can get 56 Poise and still fast roll...

Or I could throw on Wolf Ring with Paladin Legs/hands and get 64 Poise...

I wish I knew what their poise break was...

Or I could do this...

Why are you using hornets ring? Why not just havels ring so you can put on both of havel's stuff?

DoughGuy wrote:Why are you using hornets ring? Why not just havels ring so you can put on both of havel's stuff?

Hornet's Ring is a placeholder because Mugen doesn't have the Covenant of Artorias (which I obviously need for the fight), and I can get better poise with the two armors I have and the Wolf Ring then with Havel's ring/armor.

Right, of course. Completely forgot you needed that. Well good luck.

I'm just hoping I won't need to lay the smackdown on Gwyndolin for another copy of SLB. I'm pretty sure the higher poise and using a dagger instead of the Crystal shortsword should make a big enough difference to start killing them, now I'm just worried about running out of time...

Billy killed them on like NG+++ with a DMB straight sword hilt. I think you'll be fine with SLB.
Just checked a vid, takes around 2 minutes for the 4th one to spawn. So you should be able to get 2 down with 1 cast, maybe even a third. Just stay close to them and dodge.

I roflstomped them on NG++ with a 50 fth SLB Parry Dagger, but I needed two casts. I'll just kill Gwyndolin and attune two copys, then engage in a little trial and error til I kill them.

Then I move onto Nito and PvP. I both hate and love you for managing to make PvE challenging again, the Bridge Wyvern was a particular gem because it's not really build dependent.

The original idea was for a dragonslayer only event, where you had to kill every dragon in the game. The PW and valley undead ones, pris, seath, the bounding demons and the wyvern. But that wasnt really fair to the other specs so I spread the challenge around so everyone would be equally disadvantaged.
I'm glad your enjoying it. Do you think i should advertise it, make it a forum rite of passage

You could post it around on the forums to advertise the covenant, but I don't think you would get many takers, and many of the ones who would attempt it would give up haha.

I'm really not looking forward to the Wyvern, since I've only killed him like twice and he's even one-shotted my builds with massive hitpoints with his breath. I've never parried Gwyn to death, so I'll just kill him the same way I killed him on Aeter to get him to NG+. Roll, poke, poke, repeat.

I only parry Gwyn when I need to get a build done and cant bebothered taking the risk of dying.
The wyvern has 2 breath attacks. 1 will basically one shot anyone, the other is less damaging and survivable.

Speaking of a giant red bag of fire, how do we show proof of killing him on the bridge itself?
