He definitely counts his gaming time as part of his 28 hour work day
Lol this guy doesn’t do shit
Imagine claiming you run a f500 company, a multibillion dollar company (spacex), the boring company (lmao), activist investing (Twitter) and still have time for video games
Get the fuck out of here
Ready Player One was trash but I liked that scene where the corpo antagonist tries to appeal to the MC using cynical, calculated appeals to "nerd culture" whilst having his own PR team prepare the lines.
does he think only smart people can play int builds.
I think he's trying to brag that he's smart because his character in a videogame has high inteligence stats
Kinda glad I just got moonveil so I can pretend that elon and I don't have the exact same build.
Tbh the possibility that he’s just been fucking around playing video games and not focusing on running his 69 billion different companies this entire time is the only explanation I can think of as to why said companies haven’t all filed for bankruptcy
I hate living in a world where I have just spent several minutes of my time on this mortal coil reading about the gaming habits of a meme oligarch.
Haven't played elden ring yet, but melee sorcery was my favourite type of build in dark souls. Like, you can r1 combo into casting soul greatsword with blueflame and the right set up of armour + rings, and knowing when to buff to give you the edge in duels adds an entire new layer to PvP tactics.
Ive tried sorcery duels, it’s actually really fun. You can combo melee spells to rollcatch easily and you can use delayed homing projectiles to put pressure on people and be aggressive
Melee sorcerer is the best its ever been in the series. Both in terms of actual spells and magic weapons. As for weapons there is a magic katana (moonveil) that is basically the darksword of this game so you have a super meta weapon you can use as a backup to bail you out if there's a situation the moonlight greatsword can't handle. (Or you could spam it like every other wizard does.)
(Or you could spam it like every other wizard does.)
It's hilarious watching parry builds and retaliation builds wreck Moonveil users who have never developed any other tactics.
Yeah there's definitely a lot of spells like that. You can have giant slashing magic sword, or small stabby magic sword, and all kinds of stuff.
I run an int build and I got walled by Rennala. I sort of appreciated it, too - I was getting way too reliant on Moonveil and it forced me to pick up another weapon. Now I'm using the poison Serpentbone katana and the double slash is admittedly more fun.
Well shit. I wish I'd figured that out before grinding out my dex and picking up a new katana... but I appreciate the tip!
Cheese sorcery is more rock sling. Shit works against even anti mage bosses.
Yeah, I don't understand the Comet Azur thing, I was cheesing stuff with rock sling if I wanted to beat stuff. Staggers bosses like nobodies business.
Then I decided to simply dedicate myself to becoming as orb and shooting moons as it is oddly enjoyable.
I’ve respecced to Int several times because I really like having frostbite, and idk what the hell I was doing wrong but I’ve never had success with it. Like at the same level I can have like 8 casts of lightning spear which kills an enemy in 2 hits, or I can switch to int and get 12 casts of glint pebble that does no damage, or 2-4 casts of rock sling or another strong spell which take 4 hits to kill.
Frostbite’s cool, but I won’t give up lightning spear for it.
You've got to swap some potions to FP and make use of some of the other spells. Adula's Moonblade hits hard and applies frostbite. Rykard's Rancor is good against large and slow enemies or groups. Comet Azur can melt most bosses. Cannon of Haima for AOE. Greatblade Phalanx for stagger. Carrier Piercer for knockdowns and to punish rolls. Carian Slicer does enormous damge and comes out very fast. Night Comet to negate input dodging AI. Rock Sling for stagger and physical damage. Gravity Pull spells to pull flying enemies down to earth. Invisible weapon for PvP shenanigans.
There are a lot of options for powerful Int weapons to pair with magic, as well as a lot of physik and talisman combos to try out.
Get a load of this wimp using a shield and heavy armor meanwhile I'm running around shirtless with a cape and a curved greatsword in each hand
spoiler
It's okay, shields are cool and heavy armor and int builds and rapiers too but not Elon Musk, he isn't cool no matter what build he uses
I just wear the flimsy dress from the capitol and the giant stone hat with two faces. Also who the fuck runs int/dex and isn't using Moonveil for meelee?
He doesn't want to look like a cheeselord despite being the irl version of the absolute worst type of meta scrub.
Running a Profit and still using the paper thin starting armor set :gigachad:
I still haven't left Limgrave and Caelid on my first playthrough yet but I'm about to, I've mostly just been gravitating towards the biggest weapon I have and 2-handing it. Went with the Giant Club for a good while, then switched to the Greatsword once I got strength to 31. Unfortunately that means I can no longer have light equip load unless I put more points into endurance. I definitely enjoy it, it's fun to consistently stagger bosses.
Liurnia, directly north of Limgrave, is waaaay easier than Caelid, I didn’t start being able to handle Caelid well until I hit like level 100
And I’m with you on the staggering, every once in a while I find a boss that’s hard to stagger and I just keep jump heavy attacking while becoming increasingly stressed
Oh damn really? I'm like still well below level 50 and I'm honestly doing pretty ok. I've had my fair share of deaths but the runes are flowing in like nobody's business. I already owned Margit so I can definitely head up there but I've just been putting it off.
Can definitely be hard fighting bosses you can't stagger though. I beat Putrid Avatar the other day, and they had a lot of stall moves that force you to back off, so it was hard to keep them from recovering.
