Lightning bolt spell does like... 46 damage, like wooden arrows, and you can't even use lightning blade on the two good straight swords for faith (Blessed Lothric or the Sunlight Sword) Going to wrap up this playthrough because I'm almost done but I'm definitely not making this mistake again next time I play. Darkmoon/Darkblade invader sounds like a fun time for the next run. --- Since only from below can one better see the heights. https://imgur.com/OhZgm <cite>CommunismFTW posted [p:946458797] in Miracles/F...
