168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dark Souls is a well-known series due to its high difficulty and incredible boss fights. You level up through spending souls, a currency you acquire through defeating enemies, selling things, or using certain items while each level increases in cost. While it's got great gameplay, this article focuses more so on its definitely inflated economy.
Between spending thousands of souls on leveling up to buying embers when you die to Vordt for the 754th time, the economy is sure to be destroyed beyond comprehension by you. But that's okay! All in the name of rekindling the First Flame. Between you destroying the economy and fighting various bosses, you may be wondering what the most expensive items are. What can we buy that will bankrupt that poor Unkindled in the Anor Londo that's been saving his souls for nine years?
10 🌄 Dark Souls 2 - Great Chaos Fireball
This powerful spell can only be purchased in New Game++. It goes for a whopping 17,400 souls, but it's well worth it due to it being such an effective bit of pyromancy. The spell is purchased from Chancellor Wellager at Drangelic Castle, he'll be right outside the main entrance near the stairs.
The Fireball leaves behind a pool of lava upon landing, making it excel at crowd control and damage output. It's also regarded as one of the best pyromancies for PvP due to its large radius.
9 ♔ Petrified Dragon Bone - Dark Souls 2
The Petrified Dragon Bone is an exceptionally rare upgrade material that's required to upgrade boss soul weapons. Three of the elusive stone can be purchased from Stone Trader Chloanne after obtaining the King's Ring in the Undead Crypt. Chloanne sells the bones for 17,500 souls. It's a worthwhile investment, as the alternative methods of obtaining Dragon Bones can be quite tedious.
The deal is sweetened by the bones allowing you to reinforce those boss weapons. You'll need 15 to upgrade to +10 but having these three should make the grind feel a bit easier and not so daunting.
8 ✨ Homing Crystal Soulmass - Dark Souls 3 ꦛ
The Homing Crystal Soulmass is a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:sorcery sold by Orbeck of Vinheim upon giving him the Crystal Scroll after defeating the Crystal Sage in the Grand Archives. It goes for 18,000 souls 🍬and is pretty effective against crowds of enemies due to its explosive properties when colliding with an object.
The only real downside of this spell is its longer casting time, but the damage output makes it worth the wait. The damage is also scaled off of the strength of your catalyst, 0.65 times the Spell Buff to be exact. It also has a neat bonus of shooting an extra projectile when your intelligence is 31 𝐆or more.
7 Titanite Slab - Dark Souls 3🎉
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Titanite slabs are among the hardest upgrade materials to obtain but not because they're scarce. They're often found only in notoriously dangerous areas like Lothric Castle and the Painted World of Ariandel. They're required to upgrade normal weapons to +10 and special weapons to +5. Thankfully you can purchase one from the shrine handmaiden after restoring all the Lords Cinders to their respective thrones.
This purchase will set you back 30,000 souls, so break out your piggy banks. Of course, this is a completely optional way to obtain a Titanite slab. You can alternatively brave some late-game area🅘s in hopes of finding one but for those seeking an easy way out, the handmaiden has got you covered.
6 Catarina Ar♌mor Set - Dark Souls
Perhaps one of the most recognizable armor sets of Dark Souls has rolled its way onto our list. The Catarina Knights of the Souls universe are well known for their bizarre resemblance to onions, and rightfully so. Just look at how round they are! Catarina is a land known for joy and festivities, so it's only fitting that we get a laugh out of their armor.
The set is purchasable from the Crestfallen Merchant located in Sen's fortress just before the boss arena. Look for a broken walkway on the way to the roof of the fortress that leads to a tower. Inside you'll find the merchant selling the set for a total of 34,000 souls. Quite expensive but if it makes us look like our good friend Siegmeyer, it's well worth it.
5 Karmi🐎c Justice - Dark Souls
Karmic Justice is an immensely powerful miracle, in Dark Souls sold by Oswald of Carim in the Undead Parish for 40,000 souls. This miracle will counter any five attacks that occur in rapid succession by releasing a large explosion once it's triggered.
The explosion deals amazing damage and knocks down all surrounding foes as an added bonus. Unfortunately, the trigger works on a buildup gauge like the toxin or bleed ailments. This means that if the attacks are spaced out too far, the timer will reset, and you'll have to be hit five times again for it to activate. Regardless, it's still a great miracle to have in the arsenal of any sorcerer.
4 Outcry - Dark S🦄ﷺouls 2
Outcry is the most powerful variant of the Firestorm spell. The pyromancy allows you to summon large pillars of black flame centered on your character. It's sold by Straid of Olaphis for 45,000 souls. However, it can only be obtained after trading the Soul of Nadalia, Bride of Ash.
Straid is just out to make our journey through Drangelic so much more complicated than it needs to be. Moving on, the spell actually only has one cast available until you hit Attunement 94, so it has to be used wisely. Thankfully you can increase the uses before then by using the Saint's Hood, Hexer's Hood, or Northern Ritual Band +2. Additionally, it takes up two attunement slots.
3 Crystal Soul Spear - Dark Sꦕouls
This spell is sold by Big Hat Logan after freeing him in The Duke's Archives for a whopping 50,000 souls. You'd think he'd give us a discount after saving his life but oh well. The spell is worth the money, however.
It does a lot more damage than the standard Soul Spear, with the standard version doing 3.0x your catalysts magic adjust and the Crystal variant doing 3.6x. Each♋ projectile launched by the spell has a weak homing ability, penetrates targets, and will keep going until hitting a solid object. Unfortunately, it only has four uses, making each use a strategic decision. Those seeking powerful spells should look no further than the man with a big hat himself.
2 Firekeeper Set - Dark Souls 3 🌠
The Firekeeper set is a bit different from the rest of the entries, as this is not a purchasable item. Instead, it's found and sold for quite a handsome amount. The set will net you 56,000 souls which is very useful for getting those later levels where the price has increased dramatically. The set is found in the run-down tower behind Firelink Shrine and requires incredibly precise platforming, which is odd for a game like Dark Souls to have.
🐲Regardless, the jump can result in death many times over so be wary when deciding to take on the task. The set offers very poor defense but good absorption to Fire and Dark, leading most to just disregard it completely as armor.
1 Great Lord Armor/Artorias' Set - Dark Souls
The ultimate set of armor, befitting of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Lord of Cinder. Actually, the armor is a little above average in terms of defense ratings. It's got great Fire, Curse, and Lightning resistance but beyond that, it's pretty mediocre. It's only available on New Game+ by purchasing the set from Domhnall of Zena for 80,000 souls. It can't be upgraded, so it only gets less effective the farther into the game you get. There's a much cooler alternative though.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Artorias' armor is available for purchase from Domhnall for the same price as the Great Lord set after defeating The Abysswalker himself, plus you don't need to wait until New Game+. It's medium armor rather than light armor like Gwyn's, so the defense ratings are better. You're also free to upgrade it! The biggest downfall of the armor is the lack of Poise, making it very easy to get stunlocked to death.
