Evil_Joker88 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Well i am glad they didn't bring up the grindy weapon trophies again. I'm worried about getting the boss related trophies. I like the help someone kill a boss trophy as i played a lot in coop. I dislike the invade someone and kill him/her. I never invaded someone in a Soulsborne so far.

POEman553 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 The trophy list looks easier in some respects but harder in others. Question remains if the Stockpile Thomas glitch is patched (I guess we'll find out day 1). It's probably also possible to do item trading for trophies but may need to be confirmed too. There's fewer trophies to get weapons/rings. I can't wait until Thursday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fr_0zt Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Nice list and love the trophy icons.

sepheroithisgod Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 On one hand, I am very happy that there isn't a pure blade stone grind, on the other a lot of those boss trophies look missable. As a result, this could impact co-op since you don't want someone to summon a random on those bosses. And there isn't a way to respawn bosses, so the trophies should only get somewhat harder as you go through the NG+'s. Also, there's probably gonna be more invasions cause of that trophy. That said, I look forward to making this platinum #300! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OGRONIN Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Can't you just save scum before a boss and redo it over again until you get boss related trophy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkRose025 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 You would have use the PS plus cloud if you plan to do the save scum method. The PS5 won't let us use USB drives to back up save data at launch unfortunately. ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekir Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I don't like it. Easier for whoever enjoys online no doubt, but I loathe it. Beyond playing some SF5 this generation, I've avoided online as much as I could. Damn, From Software knows a lot of us hate online, and that's the reason that in their games plenty of resources are often quicker to get if you like helping others or do pvp, but with the alternative of farming offline if you aren't into that. But Bluepoint misses the mark here. Also I'm already missing the weapon trophies, it made you memorize npcs, enemies and lizards you had to hunt in order to get everything. They already said in an interview that pure bladestones now will not be a pain to farm, so they got rid of the main complaint with the old platinum, and yet, they still remove those trophies... not sure that I like it. The new "kill the boss this way" trophies don't look bad, even if they're a bit stupid (killing dragon god punching him? wtf... a Saitama homage?)

It also throws a bit of a wrench for completing the trophy list without having to do an extra playthrough, since you need the MiB's soul for the Soulsucker spell from Yuria. Might need to save scum if I don't want an extra playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bossi15 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Going to be a 35-50% Plat. For beginners quite hard but if they really didn't change too much mechanic wise and balancing wise, it will be hell to play online. So many broken bullshit like the scraping spear from Phalanx.

"Not Fooled" looks like it might be a bit irritating considering it's kind of hard to tell who the real Fool's Idol is until she casts magic. "Fists of Legend" is also a question of if you have to deal with all the rocks using the Hands of God. At least there's no Bladestone, Darkmoonstone, or Moonstone grinding required I guess and no reason to go with Mephistopheles. There's always a reason to go with Mephistopheles.

They also stated in interviews that older major bugs have been patched so no Stockpile Thomas dupes. Most bosses have 1 miracle, 1 sorcery, 2 sorceries, or 1 sorcery and 1 miracle as the trade for their soul. Three bosses have 2 sorceries and 1 miracle for their soul. As long as you don't want to use the miracle from one of those three bosses (or the items that is crafted from their souls) during your 2 playthroughs, you could do it with save back-ups near the end of your NG+ playthrough. In NG you will have to pick the good ending as that provides a soul that trades for a sorcery. Once you complete level 1-3 and worlds 2 through 5 in NG+, you have 2 copies of the souls of those three bosses and the ability to learn every other miracle and sorcery as long as you didn't craft the Lava Bow, the insanity Catalyst, or the Blueblood Sword. Back up your save, trade for the miracle from each of those same three bosses, and the Saint's trophy will pop. Revert your save, trade for both sorceries from those three bosses, and the Sage's trophy will pop as long as you have all the rest of the sorceries (including the sorcery from picking the good ending in NG). Then finish NG+ and pick the bad ending for Seekest soul power. If you were to save the good ending for NG+ instead, you will have to find the relevant sorcery merchant again in NG++ to get the Sage's Trophy which requires playing through 1.5 worlds.

WhisperingDusk Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Definitely looks like an enjoyable platinum. Less of a grind than most Souls games. I also like how some trophies make you tackle a boss in a possible different way. I'm excited! Now if only I could get my hands on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l33sar54 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) Overall a pretty decent list, haven't played Demon's Souls so this will be my first time and also my final Souls platinum. However, defeating someone as an invader is not making me feel warm and fuzzy, especially since I won't be getting PS5 and Demon's Souls at launch but probably a couple of months later. By that time, everyone is going to be beefed up, ready to one-shot me and things will be much harder then. Here's hoping some kind of boosting will be possible, would like to get the co-op trophies out of the way fast to enjoy the rest of it solo.

The multiplayer restrictions were similar to Dark Souls 1, you could only invade within a certain level range. So if they keep that system, even if you were to do it years later, you will still be invading people who are at a similar progress point in the game as you, not folks with endgame gear (unless they twink up by purposefully keeping their soul level low).

You’d be surprised the amount of truly unprepared players you run into. I’m terrible at min/maxing my build and still win about 30-40% of my invasions. Have faith!

I haven't ever invaded anyone in a Souls game, I know that it's a mechanic many people like but I just can't see the appeal. For me, a Souls game is first and foremost a PvE affair, and PvP is not something I play them for. I like the co-op aspect, though, helping others defeat bosses (and be helped in turn). It's a personal preference. That being said, you're probably right that there should be one hapless player who I could just kill for the trophy and be done with it.
