Amazing skill! I am on ng+8 now and still enjoy the game by testing various builds. The rock solid build is so much more fun than the tank or stun builds, but i am already struggling on some bosses. IF I manage to master this, i will try the combination with this immobilize setup. Keep these videos comming please. Really appreciate them... Thx
i just started ng+ to try rock solid build and im surprise its synergic with thrust stance, especially executioning heavy thrust lv 4 right after successful parry. its so good
Thank you! glad you like it. Rock solid pairing with immoblize is pretty crazy. It feels like you have 2 parry buttons that comes off cooldown one after another
I was an immobilize abuser my first playthrough and i can't do evanescence lmao. Btw, i still love that rock solid build. started a new journey and i can't stop rock solid > thrust. it's so satisfying lol. btw, is it possible for you to do a vid on what boss moves are best to use rock solid on like yin tiger or erlang? every time i use it i get staggered lmao. thanks for the vid man. keep up the awesome content!
Thank you! Glad you like the rock solid build haha. Unfortunately I won't have time to make boss specific guides.. but in general it's easier to remember which attack you can't parry than the other way around. For yin tiger it's mostly the attacks when his blades are red, and for erlang it's mostly his axe attack except for the one where he starts with dragging his axe on the ground.
Never connected evanescence with immobilization until watching your clip. Most efficient manual charge slam. Plenty of time for a l3 smash (first BMWk play through)--staggers every boss so far.
@@visic1 Destroyed non-white impersonator (Towers of Karma) with perfect immobilization. Stood next to him and casually charge up a l3 smash, followed by a combo, & then instinctive heavy-mash. Took him out easily under a minute. (Believe or not: this guy was taking 1/3 to 1/2 of my HP on many tests runs.) Fun!
yea I've seen some videos on that with Non-void predominantly, but I just don't like non-void that much :( I can try to think of something interesting tho. thanks for the suggestion!
Great video, definitely subscribing. I’ve been struggling with the immobilize timing. Have you tested doing the light combo finisher after the spirit? I kinda inconsistent with it when I do the non-able slam.
Thank you! for continuing the combo just smash the light attack button and it works every time, unless you used your spirit too late so that your finisher was already out before the spirit
@@valour549 I feel like it depends on the attacks and hitboxes. The Jinchi attack I tested it barely does anything.. but for great sage I can definitely feel the difference when I was playing. Haven’t tested thoroughly tho
This is great! I have one issue physically: my left finger is on the R1 of my PS5 and my thumb is on the triangle so that I can charge and therefore I don’t know how I can hit the X button properly to do a dodge while I continue charging. I kind of have to roll my thumb down which is not very accurate. There are often cases where I would like to be able to dodge while charging and this has been quite frustrating. I guess I can put my middle finger on the R1 and my Peter pointer on the trigger which would allow me to use the thumb on the X button but that’s a bit convoluted and would probably only work for an initial boss attack.
5:31 So many drinks though. I hardly use drinks. Maybe 1-5% of my fighting in first playthrough. And none in NG+ thus far. I'll have a load of drinks by the time I reach NG+3

you don't even need 4 focus points! when I play rock solid I do the thrust heavy after every parry. it's so satisfying

Dude this is amazing. Keep up the awesome work. I will do my best to master Evanescence. NG+4 btw along with a brand new cycle ongoing :D
Congrats on being on your 4th cycle 😊
Thank you! Have fun with your new run!
Bro is so passionate about the game that go to NG+10 and learn a lot of hidden features. Respect !
Thanks! yea this is one of my favorite games !
Love how you explained the rock solid move previous video man it helped me a lot 🙏🙏
Glad it helped!
Wukong dodging attacks like he dodged my friend request-smooth and cold!

Although I try to not rely on immobilize in my playthru, I really think this skill is the coolest
yea this is the only way I would use immobilize in a video.
When you said 'data point' my coke bottle nerd glasses got all steamy.

Glad I could help! For most bosses yea it’s enough time for L3 smash

This skill is a risk not worth taking unless you know the boss mechanics inside out
but it looks so cool tho
nice explaination! BTW I suggest more content about spirits combo string, spirit into resolute strike, that haven't seen any doing on youtube yet.

Yes same window. Evanescence, perfect dodge and retaliate
the see-through attacks? those have a way more generous window

@@visic1 okay thanks 🙏🏽
This for skilled Players not a noob Like me 😅😅😅
@@Foxhound24909 if you practice enough you can become a pro too :)
everyone was a noob at some point
It’s not about being skilled, it’s about pushing yourself to get better. I can perfect dodge but struggle with Evanescence
Yeah because skilled players are born with the skills they don't develop them
@@PabelR7 i guess so yes....cause i can't really make Progress in my Reaktion time
And me here already tested all skills in first play through 😅 really enjoyed the ring if fire playstyle it had a curve but solid in my opinion.
ring of fire is a bit underrated for sure
I tried Evanescence, but I feel like Perfect Dodge is so much more easier to execute even without See No Evil.
Plus Ring of Fire is the g0at!
Have you tested the See No Evil head gear? I wonder if it makes Evanescence easier to proc too 😂
@@valour549 I did lol and nope
@visic1 How much does it affect perfect dodge by? Double the window?

yea it's pretty annoying on controller.. I guess the easiest solution is to get used to using the thumb to press x as well.
You can try switching your controller set-up to use R2 to charge, its easier to hold that then use O to dodge.
Thanks
glad I could help!

nice, please do it againts erlang i want to see haha
It's pretty bad against Erlang lol he only takes one immobilize before breaking out of all the subsequent ones.. unless you one shot him..
How to enable detailed display of information about Qi costs, etc.?

@@mingchiisuen2576 do u know the name?
I try your build vs yin tiger and deal only 9k instead of 18k 😢
did you crit? and do you have the same build as I showed at the end of the video?
❤
I am not even going to try mastering it, I'm just gonna sit and watch lol.
haha if you can perfect dodge you can do it too. But hopefully it's enjoyable to watch at least :)
