    Introduced power stance, has really cool weapons.

    Estus wasn’t instant though, as far as I remember?

      As it should be. The only issue with estus not being instant is enemies input reading and punishing drinking. Which is in every fromsoft game tho

        I get your point, but I kind of prefer the instant estus. Just for those times you drink it right before getting hit. I suppose the solution is to not get hit though. Guess I better git gud.

          DS2 didn’t really base on the estus though. Sure, you could, but lifegems were plenty and they were the ones you used during a fight, but you had to survive it. Also, levelling ADP meant you drunk faster and used items faster. That stat is probably why most people don’t enjoy DS2 - they expect to have iframes without levelling an “agility like” stat.

            Yeah. I remember before reading the “level ADP” and how much better it got. The life gems were a nice addition. It’s probably my favorite DS game.
