What's the drop rate on the Leo Ring? I'm in NG+ and tried killing Ornstein first in NG and just last night in NG+. I downed him several times in each game and never got a drop, even with covetous gold ring on.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I think you need to kill him second. Then its 100%, for me at least.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
yeah, kill him second and you get the drop, you dont get it if you kill him first.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
Honest to god I thought it was a 100% drop rate but hearing these stories I'm confused. My first playthrough I killed him first just to see if I could and it dropped for me (killed him last for soul), in NG+ I killed him first though (Solaire may have landed the killing blow I can't recall) and nothing dropped.
That's all of my experience but I don't see it being a super rare drop.

Yes, he only drops it if you kill him 2nd, from what I understand. and all of my playthoughs I have killed him second and it's always dropped.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I've killed him first a couple of times, he dropped it every single time.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
Thanks everyone, thought I was going nuts. Seems a lot like Kirk's stuff that seems to drop when it feels like it. From everyone else's experience I think I'm gonna just get the soul I need and kill him second rather than beat my head against the wall (and Ornstein's head against my scythe) trying to get it killing him first. Especially since there doesn't seem to be a trophy for collecting all the rings. I just wanted it because the Souls games appear to make me a candidate for a show on hoarding.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I've killed him first and second and it hasn't dropped for me, so it can't be a 100% drop rate, unless it glitched out on me...

He drops it when you kill it first pre-patch 1.04 I think. But as of 1.05, it's a 100% drop when you kill him second.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I think it's a random drop now, like how Kirks drops works. I killed him second in NG+ in 1.05 and I didn't get one unless it only drops once.

Again, I've killed him first and second, both post-patch, and haven't gotten it, so it can not be a 100% drop.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
what exactly does the leo ring even do? i've tried parries and riposte's with it to no avail and i have no idea what it's description means by counter attack if not a parry.

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I promise its 100% drop if you kill him 2nd... I've done it like that on all 11 of my playthoughs and I've got it every time. I could just be the most lucky guy in all of Lorderan, but I doubt it.Specter737 wrote:ChizFreak wrote:Whknight wrote:Honest to god I thought it was a 100% drop rate but hearing these stories I'm confused.

Counter attack occurs when you hit someone at the same time they hit you or just before they hit you (while they are in attack animation).

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
I always kill Ornstein first and he drops it for me aswell. But in this case its almost everytime I kill him he drops it

Re: Leo Ring drop rate
@chizfreak, thanks wasn't sure, is the bonus really worth it? has any one made a build focused on this ring?
