Ok cool. I’m quite happily using sword and shield, but feel like I’m not making good use of one of his key moves at all (the unsheathed thingy). If it doesn’t really matter I’ll stick with him. I honestly think the guard riposte thing is most effective with a shield and better than the unsheathe move anyway. You can still do it with the 2H uchi of course, but you'll get chip damage. I never looked back once I picked up a shield, and I was 2H the uchi quite happily for the first 10 hours or so. Maybe longer. Uchi is worth sticking with regardless of course. The bleed actually seems pretty effective in this game and it's been a godsend more than once.
I should also add that you'll be able to change the unsheathe to other moves once you collect them. So you may well end up with one that's genuinely worth 2H for. It IS decent fwiw but, as I say, I don't think it trumps the guard riposte.

Well, I'm still alive on this blue tower, but my hands are shaking at the prospect of what's required! Argh

I regret upgrading the Reduvia. I should have played about more with daggers before doing it..

Hands up who has jumped off a cliff on torrent and performed the double jump near the ground thinking it would negate fall damage?

Perhaps oddly, though I can appreciate what a beautiful world they’ve built here, I’m actually enjoying the enclosed spaces more and I think it’s because they give that old claustrophobic shield up edge-around-the-corner-holding your breath vibe more and that’s a Souls game for me.m I like a series of set puzzle pieces I need to slowly solve like a game of Chess only with plague babies, skeletons and enemies made of shit on the board. I find the open world a bit paralysing.

Bloody hell, I've just entered some sort of warp gate near third Mariska church Ruins, by the small river/pond and I've ended up in a far north westerly area called Greyroll's Dragonbarrow, right outside a 'Bestial Sanctum'. There's a huge fucker with wings down some steps from here, but I've warped in behind him so have run into the sanctum and there's a site of grace here. Yeah I did the same thing yesterday, mad area, some big hitting enemies. There is an NPC of interest inside the sanctum (needs specific items to interact though) .

What the hell is that giant face? Didn’t see it at first while fighting that big thing down there but what is it? There has to be some lore behind that surely.

I’m enjoying the curved greatsword dropped by bloodhound dog knight guy at the moment. Seems to have a particularly good range on horseback, and the weapon skill absolutely destroys chumps. Not sure it fits with the personality of my godly confessor character, but I guess he’s having to make do with what he finds in these strange lands.

I've been levelling my STR up just to wield it (playing Prisoner). Have a lovely ash of war that would be perfect for it too.
