Yes, I know what I’m asking is basically sacrilege in the ‘Soulsborne’ community but I’ve played quite a few Souls games and I am kind of over the whole ‘challenging myself’ thing. Part of the reason I was originally drawn to the Souls franchise was the difficulty but now I just want to play Fashion Souls with a cool-ass character in a cool-ass world doing cool-ass shit. The game has so much lore and such a beautiful world and just so much creativity in general that the difficulty seems like a distraction from enjoying it.

I’ve heard using summons is a good way to alleviate some of the difficulty. Are there any other effective ways?

    If you keep it under 66% (iirc) then your roll is the standard one and has i-frames.

    There are 3 kinds of rolls, actually: Fast Roll, Medium Roll and a Fat Roll.

    The roll you’re talking about is the “Medium Roll”, which you get by keeping your equip load within 30-70% in both DS2 and 3. In DS1 though, it’s within 25-50%. Yeah. Very strict.

    And in DS2, you’ll need to waste your levels/souls on ADP (Adaptibility) to increase your Agility stat so that you have decent enough iFrames because some bastard thought it would be genius to make iFrames a fucking stat and give you shit iFrames regardless of your rolls at the start.
