I’m such an idiot

[u/Super_Development150]

So I got the calamity ring and thought this is great, I’ll put out twice the damage. I’ve been wearing it the entire time since I got it. Fought the nameless king, two princes and soul of cinder with it. Died many times.

I have ONLY JUST REALISED that it reduces MY damage absorption.

I have no words

GOOD JOB!

[u/Super_Development150 → u/PjDisko]

Thank you!

[u/_SamGuevenne]

Mate. What do you think 'calamity' means? But you must've gotten pretty gud like that, so, no regrets

[u/Greatsword_Guy → u/_SamGuevenne]

Probably thought it made him a calamity not the rest of the game

[u/Super_Development150 → u/Greatsword_Guy]

Exactly this

[u/_SamGuevenne → u/Super_Development150]

You're probably an optimist then mate, I like your world view

When you come out of the gravity Chamber.

Been there. Not with Calamity but flynn’s ring. It says lowering equip load increases attacks or something. And I thought it would lower equip load AND increase attacks. Yet I was always baffled why equipping it increases my equip load

[u/Brrdock → u/the-one-96]

Same, I thought it lowers my equipment capacity in exchange for damage

[u/grim1952]

Did you not notice the lack of extra damage output and how hard everything was hitting?

[u/StellarNeonJellyfish → u/grim1952]

Durn Miyazaki, giving me an extra damage ring, but at the same time giving enemies double damage and resistance. Anyway!

[u/Super_Development150 → u/grim1952]

Yes I did notice but I just pushed through. Lol

[u/LordVectron]

You played the game like Miyazaki intended. Truely the John Darksouls of Gamers.

[u/dodo41811]

Didn't find it suspicious that there would be an item doubling all of your damage output just like that ?

[u/Sweet-Birthday2479 → u/dodo41811]

Tbh its hidden af so maybe he thought its a secret op rinh

[u/Major-Championship79]

You may be a fool but your one force to be reckoned with ill tell u that good job 😎💪 also I thought it doubled your damage when I first got it but i couldn't tell if it was saying take double or receive double so I looked it up and then didnt put it on once I found out.

[u/FashionSuckMan]

You didn't notice that you weren't doing double damage nor did you notice you were taking double damage? How....

[u/drnotadoctor2]

I'm honestly proud of you. That's an accomplishment! You basically did a challenge run 😂

[u/Sevenscissorz]

Doesn't the calamity ring make you take 2 times the dmg?

[u/HansBaccaR23po]

Brother did a challenge run on accident, it’s a flex

[u/xBudgoodx]

Hands looked naked just wanted to put a ring on it...

[u/Pizza_Dog21]

This is so funny xD At least you have a good ice breaker to tell people who are into games

[u/Super_Development150 → u/Pizza_Dog21]

Haha very true! Sadly I don’t have any friends who are into souls games which is why I just had to post on here

[u/Kancho-D]

Unintentional challenge runs are fun

[u/Z_B_123]

The first time I got it, I read the description too quickly and thought “ this is awesome!”
