Meh, it's the ash of war on the dagger that's doing most damage and its not supposed to work like that. When I see a mage do this I run because my stamina bar is bigger and I'm not getting cheesed by someone who thinks they are good. They can run out of mana but I can't run out of stamina.
A duel between two mages is an anime showdon. A duel between a mage and a meele player is one's desperate struggle to survival. A duel between two meele is a competition of who runs out of stanima first. Honestly, when they say that mages got the op stuff in this game, looking back to Soulsborne and all the miracle builds, Espoc, rollspam, I say good for them, they deserved that.

I'm gonna have to admit, I'm like 50 hours in, and I only beat Margit a few hours prior. It's like I spent so much time just wandering and exploring, and for some reason I didn't feel like going to Stormveil Castle yet, so don't feel bad about that. (Though I didn't overlevel that much when I faced Margit. I was only lvl 35 with a +3 weapon).
Yeah what a game if you can enjoy 50 hours without even progressing the story. Good shit! I’m lvl 26 with +2 weapon. I got that 2 hander hammer from the boss with the lantern chain in one of the tombs, just not used to playing without a shield so gonna try that out for a bit first before Margit. I’ve tried him a few times and got him to 50% so should get there soon. I ended up there level 9 too , big mistake.
@@warkiller question. Did you walk across the map because I'm about 65 hours in and I've killed three shard bearers, multiple bosses, explored the entire map except nokron city and whatever is after it and found a bunch of optional stuff
@@MoonlitPhoenix0 Nah, I used the horse plenty of times. I just tried to do a thorough exploration of the regions I've been in.

I need that greatbow spell on my mage to practice free aiming. in all the previous souls game I was a free aim god with sorceries in pvp (miracles too) In dark soul 3 I could regularly get great soul arrow and lightning arrow to hit unlocked.
@@kickrobotsintheballs5840 I don't know if LM can be free aimed. Thats why I'm saying I want it 99% of people who play a mage stay locked on no matter what in combat but that makes spells easy to predict and dodge. I want the spell to see if it's possible to predict the path of a moving target and try to see how many of the projectiles I can get to land. Sometimes it's as simple as shooting an attack that fans out in a short distance infront of you into the ground to ensure they collide with your opponent. It would be just nice to know that I have the option
@@timothycain8639 I think it drops from the actual boss at the Haligtree or whatever the area is called, you fight the apparition copy of her in Liurnia of the lakes, the tree is pretty end game area i'd say so be on your toes there. I'm not sure it will work out tho, since homing spells must be used with lock on or else they will just fluke or fly anywhere but where you want them to. But you do you, maybe i'm wrong.
@@kickrobotsintheballs5840 I think it's possible to free aim a lot of homing spells, since they typically fly out then curve in the direction of your camera, obviously it won't track your intended target though.
They’re separate spells. To put it as spoiler free as I can, this version is called Carian Phalanx and it’s available shortly after you beat the boss in the very very northwest of Liurnia. There’s a really cool side quest you can start after that and you unlock this spell soon after beginning it :)
Really don't like the "respectful" duel where you don't heal. The mage has 10 fp potions and can burn them all no problem. The melee has 10 hp potions but is frowned upon for using them. When first he has to dodge for a few minutes. Then finally gets close to meet an almost equally powered melee combatant using an INT scaled weapon.
I don't think it would matter if you used all flasks, infact likely fairer, the spell casters would have to really make a decision before dueling as to whether to bring 5hp 5fp for example vs 9fp and 1hp and so to the melee using ash of war? Love your videos though, great player! Keep up the good work. An argument by some maybe that the duel will last forever, its my experience so far that the duels usually last a very short amount of time, and if you get caught up in something because you ran out of endurance or miss timed a move its pretty much over quickly. Just the fact the melee player has to break through a solid wall of death without his primary tool, hitpoints. To face a fresh, prepped and ready moonveil katana ash of war in the face which has poise break higher than many of the pure strength weapons, I dont really see as "respectful" infact the opposite - you survived an onslaught of magic to come out the other side with 5% hp left swigged a potion and chased down the foe and were frowned on for doing so. I guess for fairs sake, 0 potions hp or fp. Casters had their chance to do damage from range and passed or failed then met a superior melee combatant. With a varying degree of health due to their own skill.
dont let your class choice keep you from playing different builds, once you get high enough level you can try it all. im running a mage build on my samurai.
Invaded twice by a blight. It’s not fun at all. They dodge and insta death you at the same time. It’s retarded. I rather fight this mage than the blight exploit.
There should also be duelist summon signs (red) around but I don't know where to find them yet. People usually congregate around good "arenas" for PvP clear of enemies and terrain.
@@NimhNom I use taunters tongue in Giants end game area and seem to get invaded instantly after each fight. Taunters tongue is a great way to bait invaders in for a 1v1. IT'S NOT DUELS. Duels you put a sign down. Taunters tongue actually allows you to be invaded as a solo player and speeds up the invasion time. I'm getting 20k xp per kill when they invade me XD
They didn't heal? Watch it again, the only thing they do is restore their FP not their health, which is accepted by the duelling community as fair. Though I'm not sure how much I agree with it because I think strategic management of FP should be a thing for mages in duels, but that's my opinion. I don't dictate the community rules of honour.
@@notan3144 Stamina is regenrated automatically, which is what weapons use as resiurce for attacks. FP doesn't regerate automatically. Therefore, restoring it is fair.
"Respectful" This warped sense of pride and respect in this community is hilarious. While still emploring cheese tactics, exploits , DC ing when they lose etc. Thinking they didn't lose when they pull the plug etc. I'd rather not play by some fedora tipping rules and play without exploits and cheese. I'm not saying you did, it just seems rather silly that some people think their "rules" bother someone else.
It's not 'beyond hard', it's an adequate challenge but definitely easier than previous souls games due to certain mechanics (summon ashes and ashes of war for your weapons).
The weapon arts and magic are cool, but I feel like they are taking away from older melee based pvp. I have yet to invade anyone that doesn’t use a “anime” like attack or spell.
I was trying to organize a lot of arenas in the starting area with glowing stones and stuff. So many noobies and new players just run in to kill me! Even though me and 2 other red ones are spectating other 2 fight in the arena. Like wtf is wrong with these grifters?
Well as you said it, "noobies" have no idea what a fight club is. Also there's a 4 player max in Elden Ring so I'm not sure what you are talking about. Sounds like you are talking about dark souls 3.
is it just me or does being a mage just make the whole game a big cheese fest, most bosses get cheesed by mages 🧙♂️ and kill a good amount in pvp all because of spell casting, ive never died to a blade user but i have died countless times when invaded by a mage cuz they just sit back and cast spells which winning is winning but i wouldn't even go as mage just cuz ik it's annoys and pisses people off
What your encountering is a fighting game thing known as zoning. Once you learn the grab bag it's just down to timing. Mages on average have a sliver of health. Use poison daggers. Crossbows and bows. Mages ranges for the most part are actually shorter than arrows. They will also have fewer health flask due to needing more fp. Just learn the match up. Mages get spells. You get a plethora of thrown items that interupt casting. You just need to disrupt their flow. Stick to mid range and don't give them time to breath. Enough room to dodge. But close enough so they can't cast. Even the swift pebble has a start up and cooldown.
I dont know if im the only one who sees this, but you know how we all give shit to animes like DBZ and shit that allow their enemies to either power up, gain distance, or set up? Here we are in real life doing the exact same thing they do lmao.
