    For those curious: "Vereor nox" means "I fear the night", to which Lemon responds with "Laudamus lucem", which Google Translate turns into "praise the light".
    I hardly know Latin but you can't just throw that in there and not expect laypeople to start digging for meaning, Lemon.

      Yes, I also have played this game for 1000s of hours the old Edition and the remastered one are both platinum and have also cleared the game with only bow, only miracles, only sorceries and only pyromancies. Also I have extra Accounts for some extra ones like a heavy knight(strg), scythe User (dex), and other little ones but I guess the most absurd one is the one where I have most hours in I am in ng+23 there. it is in the old one though, and have collected literaly every collectible to 99 and max in the chest. While my Level is not max, I do have every Single armor, ring, spells (dlc included). I can even map out the complete map, with all the Crystal liazrds, bosses, common enemys, what drop, how many of them what quality (I mean souls) in my head. The only thing that I don't know accurately is how many souls which enemy Drops since they change with ng+,the chest and silversnakering. I am currently stuck on Gwynn (that guy just has too much health, oneshots me and I suck at parrying) so can someone tell me why the fuck I didn't know they can be parried? I guess i did waste a lot of time not trying those things. It seems the saying you never stop learning is right.😅

      Because vitality is wasted stats. Once you get good enough at dodging to not get hit, health doesn't matter. And since health doesn't matter, pumping it higher is just wasting stats you could have put elsewhere.

      It's a bad habit of his. Any time he makes a gimmick character, he forgets to dump into health. Either the gimmick works, or it doesn't

    The Lemon lore deepens. We now know he has a normal number of digits and once had a beard.
    Edit: You have no idea how bad the sword dance is. I'm doing a challenge run where that's one of the two spells that I can use, I am stuck on Smack and Sparky because Sparky keeps jumping out of the AoE! It does do 600 - 1k in damage per cast.
