Georgia, specifically the suburbs surrounding Atlanta saw a massive influx on new yorkers and others over the last 10 years. Florida is seeing the same. I'm in It and my ex is a lawyer. We moved from NY to Alpharetta for a short time, lots of new yorkers and people form LA were moving there.

Also, try using a weapon that deals good bleed but can also be buffed with frost grease. Something like the bloodhounds fang sword.

I tried frost. Been spamming Dark Moon Greatsword

Have frost and bleed on your hotbar. Summon mimic and buff frost, the mimic should do the same. After you hit her a bunch buff bleed when you can. Keep alternating.

Mimic Tear is useless because it won't dodge her attacks which results in her healing.

All I can say is, you need to put a frost or bleed on your weapon and be VERY aggressive once your mimic takes aggro, but be defensive and simply sprint away when she targets you. Run back in with jump attacks when she is back on the mimic. Stagger her alot and try and put her back to the wall as much as possible. The mimic helps to stagger her so it's a great asset for this fight. You need to attack her harshly.

In her 2nd phase, STAY AWAY from the meteor dive bomb move and the flower petals afterwards, but dash in to deal as much damage as possible right after. She still can do all her phase 1 moves so you still need to watch for those.

yea, if no one actually died, then that's good to hear.

obviously it's not good that people were hospitalized, but hopefully no one died, or will die, from something so meaningless.

There are videos clearly showing dead bodies after the stadium was cleared. Mexico never admits to anything that might make the country look as bad as it is. The people THERE helping the injured tallied up 22 DEAD, and they are dead.

Ive heard the same for the Greatsword (or potentially all Colossal weapons?) that you keep it at +24 instead of +25, until they patch it.

If you see red damage text, stop.

Melee weapons that scale with arcane seem to be bugged by just having arcane scaling. If they worked then Rivers of Blood would probably be a better weapon than Moonveil.

All weapons that scale arcane use to scale with faith and were changed last minute. Arcane scaling itself doesn't work at all for weapon damage.

I heard that upgrading a weapon to +10 actually makes it weaker due to a bug. Is that true?

no. so far the only bug like this is the Misericorde dagger(shame since it does high damage and has a whopping 140 crit rating). And it's only at the high end of the upgrade. +25 maximum does less damage than +24. And the solution is crystal clear....leave it at +24.

idk, maybe another weapon is bugged like this but i haven't seen it.

Question about item scaling when there are multiple attributes. If sword scales with Str/Dex of B/B, does that mean that the weapon will be stronger with both attributes being higher, or just that it will increase when you level up those stats? Ie, will the sword be stronger if i was 28/10 or the same if it were 33/5.

Both str/dex scale well to 80 then it needs two points to move damage up by 1. If the weapon has B/B in both it will scale well with both.

What's up with the Horizon hate?

Damn. Zero Dawn was one of the best games in 2017. And Forbidden West will be the same in 2022. Elder Ring may be a better game but that doesn't mean Horizon is shit...

It's not hate. The games are very overrated, by a large passionate fanbase because it's an exclusive game. Otherwise it would be a forgotten B tier game masquerading as AAA. Fun fact, the game was in development since like PS2 times and the project constantly got shelved until Sony NEEDED to step up first party software in their troubling PS3 era...then serious work began to revive it.

The point is that Sony could have given out ANYTHING and fans would elevate it to god status because it's what they have to work with. Look at Resistance. It was simply Sony's exclusive shooter of the time that was thrust against Halo just because. Sony opted to buy exclusive content and timed exclusivity to better multiplatofrm shooters going forward instead of continuing that franchise. Horizon is in the same boat of being what they have to work with. Otherwise they would much rather be able to pay for Red Dead or some other big game to only be on PS.

The game isn't bad, but it is overrated clearly unless you're simply biased. Which honestly most PS fans are.

What about the turtle shell shield? Thats what I'm using. Its light, good protection, and boosts stamina recovery.

This is also a great shield, the skill is very useful too. Stats are slightly behind the Brass. Overall these two are the best shields for general use but the brass is the best. There is always a #1. It's not mandatory, but pointing out the ability to get such a good item in the beginning of the game seems like a great tip to new players. Not sure why this has to become a debate.

Wait really, the shield is that good? I did grind those soldiers a bit so I have most of the stuff they drop. Mostly I'm missing the spear from that knight who is a little stronger than the rest. The shield is heavy though.
I did get the uh.. Bloodhound gang weapon? From some blue circle surrounded by creepy rock worms. I don't have good enough stats to wield it yet. But I'm still trying to figure out which weapon type I like playing the most.

Oh very interesting, I'll look into this. Thanks!

The protection is pretty much the best all round for a mid shield and the stability is approaching greatshield levels. The Brass Shield occupies the niche of the black knight shield from DS3. Also it allows weapon art by default.

Functionally, it has the best mix of protection and stability which is what you want and need in these games. The weight of the shield is almost worthless unless it is prohibitively heavy to where you NEED to build for it, and ONLY greatshields are that heavy. That's why the top one or two medium shields in these games are simply the meta. Brass shield is the best shield in Elden Ring, checks all the boxes without gimping your character. Getting it so early is icing on the cake.

Put it this way, unless you're building for a super tank, you will not ever replace this shield with anything else.

So as I'm trying to figure this game out, I have some questions:
1. Armor. There's a lot of numbers and stuff, but it seems like most armor of the same class (light, medium heavy) are roughly similar? Meaning, it seems like it's not the most important thing to try and find optimal armor. Is this correct?
2. Are there any early enemy drops (weapons and shields in particular) that I should be looking out for?
I started as prisoner with the hopes of doing spellcasting but right now I'm mostly just melee fighting because I haven't found any new spells yet.

Soldiers in the first zone drop the brass shield. It is the best shield in the entire game. Some greatshields offer better protection and blocking, but they're heavy and not compatible with most builds. An excellent medium shield is always the best shield in these games, and unlike Dark Souls, you can get your within the first area. Look for the guys literally wearing a shiny brass shield.

You can get a high level staff early on by opening a teleoprter chest and running to its location. don't fight anyhting in the zone you get ported to.

You can run AROUND the castle with the first boss and into the zone behind it, and up to the area with another boss and avoid enemies and find the sword of night and flame...extremely strong weapon. The same area that ports you to fiond the staff, has emeies who drop a great armor set and some decent weapons but good luck farming them at starting out level.

The gate camp has a greatsword in a chest on the wagon close to the site of grace/rbonfire/rest point, as well as a flail on the opposite end(where you first approach from). Also the area map is right in the center of the camp. Any area you enter will have an obelisk icon on the map, the only visible icon. Usually along the road, this is the map that will reveal the zone layout.

Ruins to the north east of the starting zone next to the road with a bunch of flower enemies, there is a chest with a meteorite sword. It's a katana.

Ukrainian soldiers were making Africa so go dead last, if at all on transport to Poland. Poland turned the Africans away and made them walk back to Ukraine.

The issue seems to be that Poland has only opened up to Ukranian citizens and is refusing non Ukrainians.

At first they were not allowing the African women and kids either.
