Exploring the Symbolism of English Runes in Futhark Alphabet

The Futhark of English Runes is a system of writing that is derived from the ancient runic alphabet used by early Germanic tribes. It is composed of a set of 29 symbols, each representing a different sound or letter in the English language. The Futhark of English Runes is unique in that it combines elements of both the Old English Futhorc and the Younger Futhark, creating a comprehensive system that covers the entire range of sounds in the English language. The Futhark of English Runes was developed in the late 20th century by English scholar and runologist Terry Walsh. Walsh was inspired by the ancient runic alphabets and sought to create a modern set of runes that would be applicable to the English language. He carefully studied the phonetics and phonology of English and developed a set of symbols that accurately represented the sounds of the language.

He carefully studied the phonetics and phonology of English and developed a set of symbols that accurately represented the sounds of the language. Each rune in the Futhark of English Runes corresponds to a specific phoneme or sequence of phonemes in English. Some runes represent individual sounds, such as the letter "s" or "m," while others represent combinations of sounds, such as "th" or "ch.

Occult weapons dark souls

Apparently a +5 occult Greatscythe is better than a fully upgraded normal one at 35/30 dex faith: 517 or so vs 480 AR. I hope it's worth it in PVP, cause the upgrade requirements for getting it are weird and lengthy.

Occult Weapons are worse than normal ones. Split damage is always worse than pure damage. Total AR isn't everything.

Thing is, taking a knee for split damage helps out a bit when you also include that Occult scales with Faith. Nothing's stopping you from including some Wrath of the Gods, Emit Force, Lightning Spears, Sunlight spells, or Magic Barriers.

That's what I was thinking. I'm trying to get vow of silence, DMB (though I'm not terribly good at PVP and I have no clue how good the Darkmoon summon rate is). I'm also using Gravelord sword dance which is useful even with no faith req.

Farming crows in Fluffy painting is pretty easy though. And waaaaaay faster than in ds3.

How many dried ears do you need for DMB? If it's worth it I'll de-upgrade my Scythe from occult and just use the buff. I kinda dislike that it only lasts like 60 seconds for a one time use.

Well, you can still buff it while it's un-buff-able, but it takes some nimble fingers, aye? [speedsouls.com]

10 for the spell and 80 total for the strongest version. Can't downgrade upgraded weapons iirc, but dank buff is beast on literally any weapon :)

And ignore that tumblebuffing thing. Regular darkmoon is cheesy enough.

There's a very small number of places where a split damage weapon can outdamage its regular counterpart or a similar weapon, and strong attacks of split damage weapons sometimes get a very high damage boost compared to weak ones buy in general non-split is always better than split unless you run a pretty extreme build.

To clarify :
- Game start enemies may be weaker to split.
- Catacombs / TotG enemies may be weaker to DIVINE weapons.
- Some Blighttown enemies.
- Slimes in the Depths.
- Demon's Ruins enemies (Occasionally with Firesage included).

The crucial word is 'may'.

Thought there was an option to Modify and descend a weapon from it's upgrade path back to whatever it was previously. If not, whatever, having split damage isn't the worst thing to have. Plus Occult is stronger against "bad ass" type enemies (Silver/Dark Knights, the royal family, etc).

Any Blacksmith can modify a weapon back to an earlier part of the upgrade path, yes. The problem is, progression-wise, you get the Dark Ember for Occult upgrades shortly after when it would be useful, unless you're particularly anal about your upgrades. And getting the chunks to upgrade it to max is still a pain in the ass, and can't be accessed until after you placed the Lordvessel.

Still, extra AR from a tumblebuff hurts.

What exactly is tumblebuffing. I've heard about it before but never looked into it. Isn't that some sort of exploit?

I linked it earlier. [speedsouls.com] Basically, you queue up a weapon buff and swap weapons before the buff fires off, to get around the game not letting you buff that weapon. It adds another split damage type to the weapon, but it is still additional damage. The heavier ones, such as Darkmoon Blade or Crystal Magic Weapon are magic based and easily can add upwards of 350+ magic damage to a weapon with proper Int or Faith speccing and the right catalyst or talisman.

Doing it to the Stone Greatsword means that the 2H R2 on it becomes an AoE attack instead of just an AoE overencumberance debuff. That's why you get people worried about seeing the Tumblebuff mentioned, because that's one of the absolute worst an cruelest ways to invade and kill someone. It hits them, staggers them, and then they can't escape the damage-per-tick the buff does during the AoE. This video shows it being used extensively to one-shot lategame bosses in regular NG.

It's fun to watch people's jaws drop when an Ornstein cosplayer with a Dragonslayer Spear buffs that Dragonslayer Spear and trashes the Ornstein and Smough boss fight with it.
