Embrace the Darkness! Jokes on them, I use a medium shield with GMS. #getrektFrom
Though I wonder what the 2nd one is all about. They gonna increase FP consumption from buff spells, all spells, or some spells? This update sounds like a way to make shield builds less effective.

I hope they don't nerf washing pole. I can deal with a nerf to my stone greatshield if that is what they are doing. But washing pole is my ***, they better not hurt it.

6. Improved the matching of the Blade of the Darkmoon and the Blue Sentinels covenants. 20+ hours with this covenant on and haven't been summoned even once. Hope it works better after the patch.

PS4. My connection is ok since I invade and get invaded. Cross-region matchmaking is enabled.
It could be because of the areas I've been in. I haven't beaten Abyss Watchers yet.

 I gotta say, I like the theme change very much. The deadly premonition feel it gives is just brilliant.
Kitamura Yuka has been doing a fantastic job with her Soulsborne tracks, especially in DS3 (she composed most of the tracks, including the main theme). I don't really like how she's been overshadowed by Sakurabi Motoi, but I guess that's how it goes.

LobrosJR is playing DS3 in VR. I watched a bit of that last night. Looked fantastic!
His monicker is "lobos" though, Spanish for "wolves" (hence the wolf pack stuff).

No one but that person has then. It's been debunked to ***. Those enemies are one of the best souls farming spots in the game.

Blood Rocks. Of which there were 3 available per NG thanks to the Chalices and DLC.
DS3 has up to 8, so it's not nearly as bad.

Actually DS3 has been awesome with upgrade materials. 8 slabs and infinite supply of all the rest of upgrade mats that only cost souls to buy.
