RPGM Completed Black Souls II [v1.13 Official translation] [Eeny, meeny, miny, moe?]

[Phenir]

Think it may that the Library hasn't been fully filled. I'm still lacking [Elizaboth Bathory] ; [Black Rabbit of Inaba] ;
[The Fox and the Grapes] ; [The Jumper] ; [Wolf and XX Goats] ; [Wizard of Oz] ; [Mt Kachi Kachi] ; [Goose that laid golden eggs] and finally [Pinochio].

If anyone's got a list of where the fairy tale lads are located or know where one of these speficic ones hide in which area, then do let me know. I'd be mighty grateful.

You don't need to fill the library for any endings, and the rewards can be gotten elsewhere.
Jumper is a 3 parter. You have to kill a grasshopper, a frog, and a flea. The flea is pretty hard to see so I'll just tell you he is in upper Ludwidge near a bench. Wolf and goats is in a well near the bonfire that Pumpkin O is first by. Fox and the grapes is part of Griffy's sidequest. You fight a mad spirit with her in the upper right of the rose garden maze. You need to do this right after the cathedral event.

That all said, I hope the hidden route will unlock that 'opens all of the gallery' that the true ending of BS1 did. That was pretty nifty if not rewarding. Still this game as a whole is real fun, and again, it's a real pleasure to be here.

Completing G route does allow this but it also unlocks the dlc 3 scenes which you can't normally get until after G end.

How do i pass by him ? Even with "run like a dodo" it doesnt work, he always get me when im at the top

 

[samuel1154]

Anyone got any advice on unis? I can barely manage to hit her with ring of sin, sniper ring +3 and jabberwock covenant and even when I do fear never gets applied, I figured out I can still buff using items but it doesn't really help at all. Do I really just have to go farm luck until I can put fear on?

Are you holding shift to run? It's somewhat close with that. Make sure you have run like dodo on as well.

yes basically. Fear prevents her from using evasion. Use the chaos dungeon boss rush to farm stats, or use ladle/luck buff/debuff. Also check your difficulty.

 

[Sidurie]

Also check your difficulty.

Wish I'd seen this sooner, as someone who's also going through DLC3 currently.

It was that stupid, fake angel, wasn't it? Blessing my arse. Next loop she's going straight to the gulag...

Managed to gain enough stats to reliably hit her and apply fear now thanks, Only problem is now the 2nd phase with the clones I cant seem to manage to kill them all with AOE in one turn and I pretty much just get one shot right after.

Edit: Managed to get it done with the kishingatana and a bit of optimization

Oh your poor poor thing... There is not happy ending on Black Souls... See you after dlc3 buddy

 

[Sidurie]

I hope they've got their happy ending now.

As much as I don't want to give this smug cat any more screentime than she already gets, I'll just quote her here.

Also, my word, these DLC3 bosses on difficulty 9 are something else. All I can think of when the enemy starts with an infinite amount of turns before you even get a chance to play:

Before you go to the DLC3 new area after ending G try to farm out rare weapons/gear in the high-end stages of the Chaosdungeon. It will aid you greatly even if some stuff is % based instead of stats.
You can get the Moonlight Sword & a bunch of rare weapons from it.

 

[samuel1154]

Can someone tell me how many endings there are in DLC3? or if there are multiple endings there at all and how to get them.

Yeah, I highly recommend getting a bunch of weapons maxed out as well.
Some good weapons to max are:
Knight's sword, half damage taken + double hp buff
Bunker shield, 55% physical damage reduction
Han's machine gun, second highest spammable damage in the game, only behind the dlc 3 twin swords which take a long time to actually surpass this
Uchigatana, strong spammable aoe
Beasthunter saw, one of the strongest unavoidable attacks
Club, stun+break on hit
Greataxe, aoe fear
Anchor, +1 action buff
Andor, +1 action to start a fight
Demon catalyst/sorceror's staff if you like magic.

Gathering rings is good too, especially black rabbit rings and +3 rings, although you do get some +3 rings in dlc 3. There's also some gear that only drops in chaos dungeon, like mary's wand (unavoidable aoe dispel).

Can someone tell me how many endings there are in DLC3? or if there are multiple endings there at all and how to get them.

Just one ending but if you have Prickett's ring in your inventory (doesn't need to be equipped) then it gets extended.

 

[sammo905]

So I hope they've got their happy ending now.

wait five years or something for the series to complete and then maybe toro might grace us with a ending we all truly want

 

[Jacodu]

Oh, so you all mean then...

Oh, my. That's one ugly dream. Poor Grimm.

 

[samuel1154]

So is lingerina really just gone from everywhere after that section? She killled florence so I raped her before her sister came to save her and then they left

Man, DLC 3 is pain incarnate. Doctor J went full Yoshikage Kira on me and he also outspeeds me hard.

Time to try out one of those actual melee weapons now, as magic has finally reached it's limit. Anyone know some stupid damage combos to try out? I believe I can max out a few weapons.

 

[Sidurie]

Man, DLC 3 is pain incarnate.

There's plenty of good advice on dealing with DLC 3 on the last few pages. Ironically in my case, physical damage started lagging behind magic, and once I swapped to a caster build, things started going more smoothly.

If you need physical damage (magic reflect and such), Kishingatana did the trick for me most of the time. Guaranteed crits and Kai skill never missing. The downside of physical builds is that they're a bad match if you want to use Rings of the Black Goat (since that drops your MP to 0).

Magic, on the other hand, just clicks so well. Wand of Creation, plus Awakening, Rings, consumables and Rabbit Watches, and you're essentially throwing nukes out. But even with that, it's an uphill climb.

Just about every fight in DLC 3 will test you in some way, especially with domain effects. You do want a significant chunk of base stats regardless, and for that, there's no better place for farming souls than the boss-rush challenge in Chaos Dungeon. I think I had to farm at least 200 Souls of the Outer One before I could even hold a candle to some of the DLC 3 bosses.

The real key to combat is just buff stacking. You can get around 5x (10x) attack and 9x magic from buffs, easily capping out around 10-15k stats. On the defensive side you can easily jump your survivability by like 900x or something ridiculous.
For physical, stack atk++, madness, phalanx, resins, and self mutilation if you're brave. Slap them with oil or frozen magic bullets to apply fire/ice resistance reduction for huge damage. For magic, mag++, power within, madness, and if you have it, awakening. Then throw in a 2x stat ring of your choice for either(old king or celestial). BTW, madness can't kill you so as long as you don't lose a turn, you can just leave it on since it gives 2x magic and attack.
For defensive buffs, phalanx, stone skin, def/mdf++, knight's pride, and soul shield+guard. Soul shield by itself reduces damage taken while guarding by 90% or something. For any regular stat buff and madness, don't forget you can use consumable without spending an action. Golden mead from the tavern and buff items from sheep and resins from bear. Swapping weapons is also a free action.
I put down a list of the strong physical weapons earlier. To add on to it, max spear's zex sturm, helkite sword's helbreath with burn, broken sword, heroic vorpal sword (unavoidable spammable attacks that inherent weapon effects, this is not an upgrade from the regular vorpal sword, you need to fight a certain boss for it) and of course god's angels if the battle lasts long enough to charge it. For a meme, bandersnatch sword. You can get infinite slabs as long as you have souls by buying candy at queensland and trading at the crow and you can get tons of souls from running the chaos dungeon boss rush.
For magic, some of the stronger attacks are soul discharges, catherine wheels, rain of darkness, soul stream, tearing grudge, and uh, compared to physical, magic can't really spam strong attacks as much without watches, and reflect exists which is way more dangerous than counter. Physical has a lot of "unavoidable" attacks that ignore counter anyway and also ignore physical resistance. Magical also can't take advantage of elemental weakness as well as physical can. Phys also has access to unis' rapier which is up to 5x damage. Admittedly, that last one is only for one or two bosses really.
