00:00:55 syv: Less concentration, you're still practicing and will do better when you take it seriously again.
00:01:32 ER: yeah, going to cycle back to that shinobi hunter rather than keep bashing my face against horse boy
00:02:18 syv: Unseen Aid!
00:02:32 midnightjaguar: What’s that do?
00:02:34 syv: Jeez resetting the chance from 10% makes it a lot more common. :P
00:02:42 syv: Means I lose nothing on death.
00:03:00 midnightjaguar: Nice
00:09:56 ER: gottem
00:10:10 ER: stupid spear shinobi hunter
00:10:15 midnightjaguar: Hmm. I’ll be back in a bit.
00:10:17 midnightjaguar has quit [Quit: Mutter: www.mutterirc.com]
00:14:15 syv: Found the Tengu bastards.
00:16:13 ER: and I found a ninja.
00:16:29 syv: Ninja? Where?
00:16:37 ER: hirata.
00:16:59 syv: ...Where in Hirata?
00:17:07 ER: there's a cave near a waterfall, then you walljump upwards
00:17:38 ER: so, door past shinobi hunter, take a left and jump in the river, swim up to the waterfall
00:17:47 ER: there's a cave on the right bank
00:18:14 ER: at the top there's some building being guarded by an extremely fast boi
00:19:14 syv: Ooooh.
00:19:37 syv: I found the barrel guy and some fish, but no cave. Will check it out.
00:21:23 piecewise: yeah that guy
00:21:31 piecewise: there's a ninja tool past him
00:22:01 ER: please stop telling me things unprompted thanks
00:22:08 ER: neither of us needs to know that
00:27:18 syv: Do the fish ever attack?
00:27:34 ER: no, just flee
00:33:59 syv: ...Which right bank? The big river at the start?
00:36:26 piecewise: they do attack
00:36:31 piecewise: if they're not treasure carp
00:36:35 piecewise: but rarely
00:36:41 piecewise: I think their AI isn't great
00:38:25 syv: "May the fortunes of war bless you."
00:38:34 syv: Sounds like a quote from DF.
00:38:43 syv: Anyway yeah, where is this cave?
00:52:02 ER: not the big river, that's why I said "after the shinobi hunter"
00:53:10 ER: the bonfire you want is "bamboo thicket slope"
00:53:35 ER: go up the path a little, grapple left, jump in the river
00:55:23 syv: Man, I'm just blind.
00:55:33 ER: hmm
00:55:50 ER: you can take falling damage jumping a long way into water
00:56:05 ER: that's realistic, I guess.
00:56:05 syv: I completely missed the first two messages after I asked "Where in Hirata", and then I checked this place myself anyway. And that's after I found it the first time and missed that door.
00:56:08 syv: Thanks.
00:56:17 ER: <3
01:02:09 syv: I think he only has his right arm.
01:02:26 ER: huh
01:13:09 syv: Got him, ever so barely.
01:16:49 syv: I may have a new favorite prosthetic. :)
01:19:05 syv: ...Yep.
01:33:29 Devastator: no mj.
01:33:42 Devastator: laser shurikens?
01:34:17 syv: I actually *just* bought the phantom kunai, which I hope are indeed laser shuriken.
01:34:35 ER: burging coin purse!
01:39:55 ER: man, I have so much Sen, what am I supposed to spend this stuff on!?
01:40:13 ER: maybe some merchants have restocked? hmm
01:44:54 syv: Spirit emblems?
01:45:17 ER: yeah, that's about it though
01:45:58 ER: I'm honestly a little perplexed that these merchants go out of stock so quickly
01:46:16 ER: getting money isn't hard
01:49:21 syv: Have you beaten the cavalry guy yet?
01:49:34 ER: nah
01:49:47 ER: went away to stare at kittens for a while
01:54:01 syv: Well... money sink after him.
01:55:02 Devastator: kittens
01:59:08 syv: Wooo, leveled and got more HP.
02:01:54 ER: one armed ninja guy is hard
02:03:47 syv: Yes.
02:04:15 ER: but I can see his patterns. I feel so close
02:04:19 syv: Close to a checkpoint though, and it's simple to not die. Jump off the cliff after reviving, you'll survive the fall and lose nothing.
02:04:36 ER: yeah, he hasn't properly killed me yet
02:04:39 syv: I used shuriken against him. Whittled a bit of extra HP, and it can interrupt some of his combos.
02:08:53 syv: I found his brother, the Capra Demon. -.-
02:14:06 syv: What's his name, in the upper left of the screen?
02:14:24 ER: whose?
02:14:32 ER: ninja doesn't have one
02:15:54 syv: Ah. Yeah, ninja.
02:16:12 ER: he has the normal enemy UI
02:29:01 Devastator: "I grew the cucumbers and then I pickelized them."
02:29:04 Devastator facepalms
02:37:14 ER: beat horse dude
02:37:26 ER: first try too, so I keep all thise MONEY
02:38:54 Devastator: moneh.
02:39:20 Piecewise_ has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:39:24 Devastator: Heya.
02:40:03 ER: "confront battle memory" sounds kinda dangerous
02:43:19 piecewise has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
02:44:47 Devastator: Ahh, what's the worst that can happen?
02:45:43 ER: title drop :P
02:47:51 syv: It's fine, confront the memory!
02:48:23 syv: Also, that thing he dropped, give it to the Sculptor. Money sink.
02:49:27 ER: there was also the merchant with a gourd seed and dragonblood, so that was a bit of a sink as well
02:49:34 ER: still have 900 though
02:51:11 ER: a chest of loot, ho interesting
02:52:46 syv: What's in it?
02:55:25 Piecewise_: corrupted monk is tough
02:55:32 Piecewise_: fuck ton of health on him
02:55:43 ER: a bead
02:59:54 Piecewise_: Have either of you beat a headless?
02:59:57 Piecewise_: I have not
03:00:14 Piecewise_: And found no good source of divine confetti so I can't really try very many times
03:00:15 ER: I was just staring at him from above, actually
03:03:00 Piecewise_: he locks down your movement, he inflicts a status effect that can insta-kill you, he teleports, all this stuff
03:03:07 syv has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
03:03:10 Devastator: yum.
03:03:16 Piecewise_: hacks
03:03:32 ER: not sure if the back way to him is actually faster at all
03:03:54 Piecewise_: Which of the three ways to him is the back way?
03:04:13 ER: the one you unlock by going through?
03:04:22 Piecewise_: ah ok
03:09:25 Piecewise_: The sunken valley is quite hard to find
03:09:36 Piecewise_: I've accidently found several other places looking for it
03:09:40 Piecewise_: so...not so bad
03:09:51 ER: just keep jumping off cliffs until your body end up there~
03:10:31 ER: that arm upgrade tree is pretty intricate.
03:10:39 Piecewise_: yeah
03:10:47 Piecewise_: I'm still missing one of the tools
03:10:58 Piecewise_: at least one
03:14:21 Piecewise_: what tools are you guys using the most? I find myself mostly using the flame vent and the birdy counter stance (whatever thats called)
03:14:42 ER: shuriken
03:17:50 Piecewise_: which version?
03:18:01 Piecewise_: I've only got it up to the spinning
03:18:46 ER: I literally have not upgraded anything yet, so
03:19:32 Piecewise_: ah
03:19:48 Piecewise_: have you got the item that lets you upgrade it?
03:19:52 Piecewise_: I assume yeah
03:19:59 ER: yeah
03:22:56 ER: I have the ashina skill book now though
03:23:55 Piecewise_: The ichimojojojo whatever thats called is a good skill
03:24:03 Piecewise_: Its what I use
03:24:18 Piecewise_: recovering posture while attacking is very useful
03:24:34 ER: it's also the first one and I want to at least see what this tree has to offer me, so I got it immediately
03:25:09 Piecewise_: I'd talk about the tree but you'd get mad at me for spoilers
03:25:22 ER: yes, of course
03:26:03 Piecewise_: is there anything you DO want to know?
03:26:16 ER: not really?
03:30:16 Piecewise_: ok
03:30:34 Piecewise_: what are your opinions so far?
03:31:18 ER: why has my IRC program suddenly stopped showing timestamps?
03:31:32 Piecewise_: I unno
03:31:56 ER: there we go
04:12:49 Devastator: Here we go.
04:12:58 Devastator: no mj for overlord.
04:12:59 Devastator: :(
04:23:19 ER: my current options are giant boar, big drunk guy, random ninja, and headless
04:23:34 ER: the boar might be easiest.
04:28:28 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:29:07 syv: I haven't found any headless to fight. When I find something difficult, I usually bang my head against it until it's dead, so I prolly would've killed it by now if I had found it.
04:29:43 syv: As for what I use the most, shuriken and axe--axe because the things it counters are the most common prothesis-requiring enemies.
04:30:23 syv: Just got the feathers, and yes, feathers are *amazing*. I love them to death,
04:35:59 Piecewise_: Boar?
04:36:06 Piecewise_: was it on fire?
04:36:26 Piecewise_: I'm trying to think where there was a boar....
04:36:31 Piecewise_: there was a bull
04:36:42 ER: uh, sure
04:36:47 ER: all the same thing right
04:36:48 syv: Yes, I killed the flaming bull.
04:36:57 Devastator_ has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:36:58 Piecewise_: that fight wasn't the best
04:37:13 syv: It was wonky but easy once I figured it out.
04:37:17 ER: I didn't look very closely at it while it was murdering me
04:37:18 Piecewise_: there have been a couple tough enemies in tight confines which never goes great
04:37:34 Piecewise_: like a ninja you fight in an area roughly the size of a toilet stall
04:37:56 Piecewise_: in which I was constantly afraid of being punched out of the level, judging by the camera
04:37:58 syv: Yeah. My current hangup is the... I forget his name, but he's the guy who you can talk to and you're actually eavesdropping on him.
04:38:04 syv: Then he turns around and stabs you.
04:38:11 Piecewise_: in the well?
04:38:18 Piecewise_: or what they call a well
04:38:24 syv: Is it a well? It's cramped enough, I guess.
04:38:32 Piecewise_: where you started the game
04:38:36 syv: Yes.
04:38:42 Piecewise_: yeah thats what I'm talking about
04:38:44 syv: Was trying not to say that for ER's sake.
04:39:09 Piecewise_: If er beat the bull he's in that area already
04:39:15 Piecewise_: probably
04:39:30 ER: didn't I literally say that I hadn't beat it yet?
04:39:52 Piecewise_: oh sorry, I misread your post...
04:40:03 Piecewise_: I thought you were listing things you killed
04:40:34 Devastator has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
04:40:40 Devastator_ is now known as Devastator
04:40:41 ER: you overestimate my ability
04:41:00 Piecewise_: of those options, I say drunk
04:41:19 Piecewise_: bull isn't very fun and headless is...fuck if I know i ain't beat him yet
04:41:54 Piecewise_: random ninja is the one in that hidden bamboo place?
04:41:59 ER: just stab it till its dead lol
04:42:03 Piecewise_: thats pretty good
04:42:14 Piecewise_: you give him a shot then
04:42:26 ER: no thanks
04:42:36 ER: maybe later when I'm absurdly OP
04:42:44 Piecewise_: its like fighting artorias in sticky goo
04:42:58 Piecewise_: and artorias is breathing basilisk curse gas
04:43:05 ER: can has rusted iron ring?
04:43:26 Piecewise_: not as far as I'm aware
04:43:50 Devastator: ouch.
04:43:56 Devastator: That sounds pretty nasty.
04:44:04 ER: ...still haven't tried using any of the buff items
04:44:13 Piecewise_: me either really
04:44:21 Piecewise_: I'm terrible about doing that
04:44:25 ER: maybe those would be useful
04:44:33 Piecewise_: there's one in particular that would be
04:44:35 Devastator: Heh.
04:44:46 Piecewise_: but its so limited I don't wanna try till I find a good source
04:45:29 Piecewise_: some of these unlocks seem to come pretty late in the game (Judging by the amount filled out on the map at least)
04:45:47 Piecewise_: like that second slot under the technique slot in the menu.
04:46:10 Piecewise_: NG+ I guess
04:46:21 Devastator: Maybe there's a second map.
04:46:32 Piecewise_: possible? But doubt it
04:46:38 Piecewise_: game is plenty big without it
04:46:41 ER: maybe you ain't seen shit yet and the real dark souls starts here
04:47:12 Piecewise_: possible
04:47:21 Piecewise_: I wonder what kind of DLC this game will have
04:47:30 Piecewise_: since fromsoft dlcs are amazing
04:47:44 ER: microtransation hats
04:47:51 Piecewise_: oooo baby
04:48:00 Piecewise_: let me put a weed skin on my katana
04:48:16 Piecewise_: unlockable fedora
04:48:22 Piecewise_: I am euphoric
04:48:25 ER: pay us $20 to reactivate fashion souls
04:48:40 Piecewise_: 50 and we'll throw in poise
04:49:04 ER: this game is all about poise though~
04:49:35 Piecewise_: There is something that might actually do that
04:49:36 Piecewise_: maybe
04:49:38 Piecewise_: I dunno
04:49:41 Piecewise_: never used it
04:51:11 Piecewise_: there are a lot of items I've never tried
04:51:40 Piecewise_: I sometimes get so caught up in parrying I forget to actually strike back
04:52:17 Devastator: Heh.
04:52:31 ER: initiate git gud sequence
04:52:54 syv: There's a map?
04:53:16 syv: I cannot use buffs well, and this game's buffs seem to kinda suck anyway. Short time period, not a big boost.
04:54:28 Piecewise_: There's a map. Accessible only on the travel menu. It doesn't show much
04:54:51 Piecewise_: I use the balloons for farming gold occasionally
04:54:57 Piecewise_: thats about it
04:56:15 syv: I used one before, but haven't needed to farm since.

09:09:24 ER: hmmmmmmmmmmm
09:09:53 ER: not sure what I've been doing for the past 4 hours
09:10:11 ER: and why i've been doing that instead of sleeping.
09:10:34 ER: I'm just going to close this laptop now

17:55:48 ER: mm
17:57:11 Devastator: mm?
17:59:07 ER: one of the loading screens makes sure to tell you that wolf can see in the dark. It's something you have from the start and it activates automatically, so the net result is "dark places aren't too dark" and it's probably unnecesary to inform the player of this power because it doesn't really matter.
17:59:36 ER: I guess what it really means is "you won't have to manage light sources in this game because you're ninja"
18:03:09 Devastator: of course.
18:04:13 Devastator: ninja see in dark.
18:05:44 ER: I wonder if I can kill the archer enemies with a single charged up shuriken
18:07:08 ER: are all the extra hits it does as strong as a regular shuriken, if so that probably works.
18:13:59 ER: alright, twoshots them rather than three shots
18:14:17 ER: maybe with some more memories and the next upgrade I can do that
18:18:43 Devastator: Heh, that mario maker player put a video up on Sekiro.
18:30:28 Piecewise_: https://i.imgur.com/wgtz0l0.jpg
18:33:04 Devastator: heh
18:33:20 Devastator: you know, that looks like little hearts.
18:38:38 ER: fuck
18:38:45 ER: fighting joju
18:38:49 ER: jozu
18:38:55 ER: one hit and he's dead
18:39:00 ER: one hit and I'm dead
18:39:04 ER: ...
18:39:09 ER: oh wait, pellets
18:39:13 ER: that'll help
18:39:18 ER: thanks, pause button
18:40:11 Devastator: congrats.
18:40:24 ER: it didn't fucking work
18:43:17 ER: the shield guys are too passive to really be an issue in the fight, which is good because they're the ones who will always aggro at the same time as big boy
18:46:20 ER: they do distract the poor NPC, who is unable to break their shields
18:46:59 ER: maybe let him keep jozu occupied while I axe the shield guys, then we can do it 2 on 1 style.
18:47:20 ER: because what kind of shinobi fights fair
18:50:58 ER: got him that time.
18:51:06 ER: oil and fire works well
18:51:49 ER: didn't actually axe either of the shielders, just stealth killed one and the other stayed back the whole fight
18:52:02 ER: shielders are fuckin cowards :P
18:52:28 ER: their AI would be really complete if they fled when the see the axe come out
19:12:36 ER: I like how sake is the item you get to extract deepestlore out of NPCs.

22:31:34 Devastator: Ninja game still fun?
22:31:56 ER: haven't played it in a few hours
22:32:03 ER: played DnD instead~
22:32:30 Devastator: Ooh.
22:32:34 Devastator: Still the warlock?
22:32:47 ER: never was a warlock
22:32:51 ER: sorcerer
22:33:19 Devastator: ahh.
22:33:26 ER: this time we infiltrated a religious compound to steal a land deed.
22:33:26 Devastator: sorry, thought you had a tiefling warlock.
22:34:05 ER: we didn't get the deed, and "we" (as in the barbarian) ended up killing a guy to cover our tracks.
22:34:21 ER: but, got intel on where the deed might be.
22:35:02 ER: Naturally, my sorcerer doesn't care about the money payout for this job, I just did it for fun and to practice my magic.
22:35:41 Devastator: uh oh, so is there going to be more security next go-round?
22:35:55 ER: ...GM gave me a free Alter Self to help with the mission, and said I would forget it again if I didn't participate.
22:36:09 ER: We're not going back to the placce.
22:36:18 ER: the deed seems to have been stolen.
22:37:22 ER: so yeah, I basically only justified participating in this session by my GM bribing me with a free known spell
22:37:58 ER: and then I rolled a crit trying to find books of a magical nature in the library...
22:38:34 Devastator: ooh.
22:38:45 ER: leading to me getting ANOTHER free known spell, which isn't even on the cleric list.
22:38:56 ER: sorcerer list, sorry
22:38:58 Devastator: eh
22:39:04 ER: got a cleric spell, basically.
22:39:05 Devastator: no biggie.
22:40:05 ER: so, from the perspective of the rogue this was not mission success, just a step towards completing the mission.
22:40:22 ER: from the perspective of the chaotic neutral wild sorcerer?
22:40:40 ER: it's a "YAY I LOVE MAGIC"
22:42:20 Devastator: Yeah, definately worth going on a mission for a bonus spell.
22:42:48 ER: yeah, bonus spell plus a lesser restoration.
22:43:18 ER: which isn't SUPER useful, already have a cleric, but could be handy.
22:44:08 Devastator: cleric might die, after all.
22:44:42 ER: he does worship a death god!
22:45:17 ER: I'm pretty sure only one of us has a Good alignment.
22:46:16 ER: though no evils, and we've been treating the destruction of undead as pretty much common courtesy
22:47:16 ER: pretty sure the standard stance for everyone in DnD settings is "FUCK THE UNDEAD" so I tend to make that a goul
22:47:39 Devastator: generally.
22:50:18 ER: unless you're a necromancer or undead yourself ;P
22:50:36 Devastator: or both
22:51:48 ER: the implication is that if you're undead with a brain you're probably also a necromancer
22:53:35 Devastator: Not necessarily.
22:53:37 Devastator: but often.
22:53:58 ER: anyway, back to sekiro!
22:56:09 Devastator: ninja cannot be restrained.
23:00:58 Devastator: Well, that's the news.
23:05:01 ER: finally, beat ninja guy and thus obtained amazing treasure:
23:05:08 ER: a bundle of feathers
23:05:48 Devastator: They're apparently amazing.
23:06:09 ER: I saw them in the trailer, it's a teleport
23:08:51 Devastator: Yeah, that's what syv was saying.
23:20:09 ER: teleports behind u
