Just let the enemy soldiers, knights and perfumers deal with it. Either the dragon kills all the adds, or the adds kill the dragon. I don't know why so many people summon for it when there are still like 50 dudes down there. I just sit at the top of the hill and watch; even as a phantom.
Just curious because they're like half dragon, right? Should the dragon damaging stuff hurt them more? 🤔
One of the things I absolutely love in these games is that you can pretty much guess what an enemy's weaknesses are by looking at them. Dude made of fire? Use ice. Dude made of ice? Use fire. Dude made of flesh? Use bleed.
Most people seem to understand this, but there's one other thing in these that I constantly see people having difficulty with and that is dudes made of rock or metal. Your swords, axes and spears won't really do much to these guys. But they do have a weakness: blunt weapons (IE Strike damage). The only stone guys in the game that don't really seem to follow this are the new Forge Golems, which have their own special weak point.
Things made of stone or metal include:
And in addition to these: Skeletons or anything visibly showing bone (which is pretty much all undead/Those Who Live in Death as well as Astels). But they are also super weak to Holy damage.
So if you find yourself struggling against any of these types of enemies, just switch to a hammer of some kind for that encounter. Especially the grave birds in the Shadow Realm; strike damage makes these things not even a threat as even the smallest strike weapons keep them completely stun-locked.
When I am a Gold or Blue, the Host is an absolute noob and dies to falling off an easy jump. If I invade, the host is a god among men all the way at the end game of the DLC using the Taunter's Tongue all alone and actually is good at PvP.
I was stoked for these things, especially the spear so I don't have to waste FP with Spectral Lance (and I can make it any affinity), but I am noticing that if you hit something at the furthest range they will go, they do fuck all in damage. They do normal damage if you're still in melee range, but if I wanted to use them in melee range, I wouldn't give two shits about them being thrown weapons. 😬
