Entry 43: Sunbro Training Sesh

Hey, it's Destana.  Solaire and I really didn't have a specific goal, I just liked his positive attitude so much I decided a dungeon crawl was in order.  We wandered around just a bit and found a strange door near the waterline just a short hop away from Dragon Bridge, beckoning a downward-spiraling oubliette with increasingly difficult undead to fight and treasures to reap.  I decided I would do some training, and gather armor for the army.  

 

We fought beasts for nearly 24 hours before we reached floor ten, which provided a teleporter to travel back to the surface.

Not a lot to say about a straight gauntlet.  So I decided I would try my hand at video.  Here's a clip from level 10.  

 

One cool thing is the faction ambushes are happening in this dungeon, which sounds unimmersive, but actually, one time it was a group of 'Folk' which equates to adventurers, which makes a lot of sense in a dungeon.  And the extra spawns from Immersive Creatures (I think) mean a lot of undead spawning.

 

Pay no attention to the date in the corner =P.

 

This is from the mod Pit of 100 Battles.  A nice day trip for training!

 

Also, I can appreciate the Lower Norfair music playing in the mod.  I'm pretty sure I also have that in my Personalized Music playlist for dungeons.

 

Additional commentary:  I like that my boy Solaire was shooting the Dwemer construct with lightning while I was running around dealing with the baddies.  It seemed like I wasn't dealing a lot of damage to him, so I swapped to magic at the end, but I realized he was in the process of falling down as I casted a spell at him.  I think the exploding spiders and Solaire's Lightning Spears did him in.

If you mean places specifically for let's plays, then I can't think of anything. But the usual suspects, like PH might work. I have seen videos of people actually playing more or less x-rated games there, sooo...

Lightning ... Sun God ... Lightning ... does not compute. Shouldn't he be using heat rays or something like that? ^^

In Dark Souls, Miracles (the magic that Clerics and paladin types use) is split between healing, sunlight-type spells and lightning.  They throw lightning like spears, and the most powerful spell (single-target) like this is a hybrid called 'Sunlight Spear' which is golden sun-colored lightning bolt.  I dunno why, but that was the design choice. 

 

I do know lightning is their element of choice because dragons are vulnerable to it.  Their scales don't offer the same protection as against fire or cold (I imagine because of properies of electrical insulation and them having metallic-looking scales).  The Lord of Sunlight and his boys' first great conflict was with the dragons.  

 

Arcanum Spells mod added Lightning Spear, Great Lightning Spear and Sunlight Spear to the game, so I gave him those.
