* Don't stress about losing runes to silly deaths. You'll get lots more. | |||
* You have a short invincibility window while rolling | |||
* Equip load decides how quickly you move, how far you roll and for how long you are invincible. Light load is anything below 30% and medium is below 70%. Light load can be real good even if you're only wearing a dorky hat. | |||
* Conversely, poise decides how likely you are to be staggered by attacks. If you're going for medium/heavy load, get as much poise as possible. Even light load can use poise so you don't fall over from an arrow. | |||
* Enemies also have a hidden 'poise' bar. Hit them with enough strong (R2) attacks and they will be staggered, allowing you to do sicknasty moves | |||
* "I can't parry!" The parry window and timing are real short. It's easier with lighter shields, so get a buckler and practice on some easy dudes. | |||
* Tutorial content that a lot of people miss: | |||
** You can wield any weapon (even shields!) in two hands by holding Y+R1/L1. Try it out, each weapon has a different moveset and does more damage. | |||
** Press R2 after blocking an attack to perform a powerful counterstrike. | |||
** And because everyone is asking, smithing stones can be found in mines and as rare drops from some overworld mobs. | |||
