So much misinformation and elitist mentality. It's like everyone who has beaten the game thinks he is the best and that he knows what's good for new players or not. Some common circlejerks are:
1.Drake sword hate. I read crap like "Abandon drake sword as soon as you get it" or "Drake sword is bad because it doesn't scale". At the point in the game when you get it, it is easily the best sword and you will have to upgrade something to at least +7 only to marginally surpass it. It's simple, use it and then get something better later on. It's not the sword's fault for not scaling ffs.
2.Using guides. There are some DS elitists who say "New players should not use guides.They should experience the game like it was meant to.". Who the fuck are you to tell someone how to play or not? And why are guides bad anyway? There is so much hidden shit in this game that it's impssible to know without a guide. And besides, even with a guide, boss RNG can still fuck you up badly.
3.Buffs are goat. In pvp, people can just wait you out. In pve, bosses waste your time with dodging and blocking and a buff will run out before you realize it. Buffs are only usueful if you already have a very strong weapon. Relying on a 1 time cast buff like SL blade is retarded.
4.Pvp>pve. lol at this. Pvp is cancer. And its mostly people who fail at Ng++ that obsess over pvp.
5. "This boss is so easy, I got it on my first try." then proceed to analyze you the fight and what he did. The RNG can be very unofrgiving at times and unless you have beaten the boss 10 times with no deaths you are no expert on the subject.
6."Git Gud". How about providing actual and accurate advice instead of using an unfunny meme.
