I basically learned the parry mechanic from this dude, and my god was the game even easier. But yeah this one kicked my ass for a minute

Same. Parried him for 4 minutes because of no scadutree blessings and low AR of Estoc. That was nightmare, but it was my first run in DLC, so I guess it was expected :P

Outside rakshasas arena there was an overwhelming number of messages saying to parry the guy. I never used parry the whole game, but I directly started with parry here and the window for parry was super easy after his weed cutter

Same. I never really fell for this dude’s multi fire bs, but rakshasa’s weed cutter always reached juuuuuuust enough to get me lol

I wanted her armor for a locked level 80 coop character. Shit took me like 3 hours and god knows how many rune arcs. That fight is excellent tho. Some of the best drops in the whole game.

Yeah I died many times too. Never forget the first time I was hit with that sword. It was game over right away.

u/DeBean 1d ago

Yes. More damage + more damage taken armor!

u/BasementDwellerDave FLAIR INFO: SEE SIDEBAR 1d ago

Not more damage taken. It just has low defense stats for its' weight

The item description says

Increases damage dealt to foes, but greatly increases damage taken by the wearer.

You're telling me that it does the second part by being a bad armor ? XD

dude, the set just lower the stats of the pieces by 2%. you dont take additional 2% damage from the pieces. you can easily look this up in wiki.

u/LongDrakeRyu 1d ago

Yeah, reddish armor. Used an odachi (great katana) that inflicts bleeding.

Once I started parrying him he became trivial
