Just a heads up to my fellow knights. I have recently lost all of my dark souls characters(and demon's) So I'm basically out of events for the next two-three weeks.

Boiler, are you on the PS3? If so I can throw some weapons and armor your way. Or maybe even some souls to help you get back on your feet.

I was gonna thumbs up and congratulate you... Then I saw that Zapphander +5 in your inventory
Just to say though when you upload, put the picture size you want down to 640 pixel width, as that doesn't go over the edges (I did same as you before lol)

Re: The Noble Knights (Maxed thread 4)
So I was looking around at the armor and noticed that despite having less defense, and even weighing less, the regular knight armor has quite a bit more poise than the Elite Knight armor set. It honestly makes no sense to me at all. I'm sure everyone else knew this, but I didn't. So more power to me lol.

From really is dropping the ball all over the place. It's becoming increasingly more apparent every day.
Oh well, it is what it is. And of course it is, if it wasn't, it wouldn't be what it is.

Like I say all the time and I never get credit for... *sigh* It varies depending on location and system.
Sadly when I gave my forum data to FROM in formal enquiry they completely ignored me, which actually pissed me off and made me lose a bit of respect for them. Wish they would have told me why at least, because it has to have been intentional.

Even if it had less poise I would wear the elite knight armour for its looks

Re: The Noble Knights (Maxed thread 4)
- Chi's Promotion:
The attack on the
Darkstalkers by the Lifehunter’s and Gravesworn came at a bad time for
Oscar. Coming off a loss in the painted
world, with Isaac injured and Aeter missing after staying behind to hold the
escape route open his elites and knights were under strength. Thus he was unable to use this opportunity
effectively to strike at his foes. Yet
he did not give up on this opportunity, something had to be done. Instead he decided to use this opening as a
time to test the leadership of Knight Gabranth of Berenike. Gabranth was a division sergeant who had
impressed Oscar with his use of the greatsword, outshining many other
experienced knights and had already specialised into a Knight of Havel.
As the Lifehunters
geared up for their attack Oscar was working with Gabranth to pinpoint the most
valuable target that a small team of knights could attack and destroy or
recover. It was Gabranth who decided
that as a Knight of Havel, it would be best if he targeted the Gravesworn and
their domain, as a true test of his devotion.
It was Oscar who then decided that, as they controlled the divine ember,
the most valuable target would be that of the large divine ember, which Nito
held closely to him in his domain.
Gabranth agreed, and thus set forth to requisition a small group of
knights to accomplish this task.
Gabranth decided that
at most 5 knights, including himself, could accomplish this task. Hi armour would slow them down so they needed
to be able to remain hidden for much of the journey, and a large group would be
too hard to hide. On top of this most of
Oscar’s command staff were unavailable, busy planning and could not take time
off to embark on the mission.
After reviewing dozens
of knights actions during the war and personally sparring with many Gabranth
finally made his choice. Holy Onion
Knight Sparkly, Paladin Aurea, Bane Knight Niko and Tower Knight Boiler, for
his excellence in the last war he was given second in command, were chosen.
With the knights
chosen they gathered on the edge of camp the day of the Lifehunter
offensive. Oscar was there to personally
send them off. The day before he had
promoted Gabranth to Regimental Commander for his efforts in assembling the
squad and he was eager to see the new commander prove himself. Theu Gabranth led them to the Tomb of Giants,
ready to test his new blade.
- An excerpt from Farel
Gharllen’s “The war to retake Lordran – Part 2”
This isnt the whole story. The mission was completed and will be up before the event.

Re: The Noble Knights (Maxed thread 4)
- Judgement:
- Since usernames rarely make good real names I’ve renamed the
knights that need it for this. Knights
if your toon actually has a name just post it and I will change it.
Boiler – Bero
Niko – Niko
Aurea – Aurea
Sparkly – Spearson
Gabranth waved up his knights, they had arrived. The Tomb stood before them, the utter
darkness swallowing what little light made it this deep into the catacombs. Only the warm glow from Izalith allowed the
knights to see, albeit no further than an arm’s length away. Bero took point as they entered; followed by
Spearson, Aurea, Niko and Gabranth brought up the rear, despite his wish to
take point his stone armour would likely be his death. Spearson weaved his magic and a slight glow,
as bright as could be risked, emitted from Bero’s sword, which he kept in front
of him scanning ledges, directing the group along the path that they had picked
out. Gabranth breathed a silent prayer
that the knights first attack here had been successful, and that they had taken
maps rather than push on.
The route they took was dangerous, but for the same reason
Nito’s giants could not patrol the way and it was barely guarded. The necromancer and his skeletons that guarded
its beginning fell to Gabranth’s solo charge, his unnamed greatsword cleaving
through 3 skeletons and taking the necromancer’s arm in one swing. A quick reversing of the hands allowed a
swift uppercut through its chest finishing it off, and a bash with the hilt
caving the skeletons skull in. After 10
minutes along the path they encounter a lone skeleton. Bero pushes his blade through its chest and
then scrapes it off along the cliff face before it can attack.
The rest of the journey passes in silence as the knight’s
edge forwards encountering no further resistance. At the end of the path they come to the outer
vault, a short jump separating it from their walkway. Spearson jumps first, easily making it. Bero jumps second, some difficulty but easily
managed. Gabranth jumps second, a running
start giving him enough to make it, except just as he jumps the ledge edge
gives way under his weight and he plummets.
His outstretched hand grasps the air.
Spearson throws himself down barely grasping Gabranth’s wrist. Bero throws himself on top of Spearson
arresting his fall. Niko and Aurea leap
as one, immediately grabbing Spearson as they land. Niko uses her blades to hook into Gabranth’s
armour and ease off the weight on Spearson.
Slowly, the 4 pull Gabranth up.
Once they pull his chest over Gabranth heaves himself over, the knights
tumbling backwards.
Before the others can catch their breath Gabranth is up and
pulling the knights onwards. The slip
has cost them time and their efforts will have been heard. Now more than ever they need to move. They sprint to the vault entrance Gabranth
now leading. As he turns a corner he
swings his sword in front of him. The blade
slices through the leg of a giant’s collapsing it. A twirl over his head brings it down on the
fallen remains crushing it to powder. Spearson
emerged next, a blast of magic soaring over Gabranth’s head exploding on the
vault wall. The blast hit nothing but
sent a storm of dust and bone flying through the air obscuring the entire
landscape before the vault. Before the
storm covered his eyes Gabranth noted the defenders and their positions, 5 more
giants, 3 gravesworn and at least a dozen phantoms. As the other knights rounded the corner he
signalled them their targets. He counted
down, 3 fingers ... 2 fingers ... 1 finger, his fist closed and they
moved. Bero spearheaded the charge, his
shield protecting him as his greatsword swung mighty arcs to either side,
crushing many of the summoned phantoms.
Spearsons magic followed, great blasts of magic keeping the guards
dazed. Niko ran up the vault wall,
leaping off it and executing a backflip mid air before plunging down in top of
one of the gravesworn, her twin blades penetrating either side of its neck. Aurea followed Spearson halfway before
splitting off and leaping at the other giants.
His divine mace burnt their bones and caused them to crumble while he
danced between their legs watching them fall one by one. Gabranth himself followed last, but his
charge was most important. As his
knights passed their tactics blew away the fog, and the guards recovered ready
to strike. His battle cry roared through
their ranks as he plunged into them, an unstoppable wall of rock crushing all
those who stood before him. “BY MY BLADE
OF JUSTICE I PASS YOUR JUDGEMENT!” he roared.
His blade cleft the second gravesworn in twain from head to toe. The phantoms that rushed him could not penetrate
his armour and he destroyed them with swings of his blade or fists covered in
rock. The third gravesworn leapt to meet
him, its scythe hacking at his armour.
This one was skilled, its scythe aimed for the joints in his armour as
it danced away from his blows. His
armour slowed him to much and he could not keep up. The gravesworn grew more viscious, Gabranth
started feeling pain as it pierced his joints.
“ENOUGH” he roared. Dropping his
blade he caught the scythe mid swing and pulled, wrenching it from the
gravesworn’s grip. Suddenly unarmed the
gravesworn backed off but could not escape Gabranth. He punched it in the face sending it reeling
backwards. Its rose slowly, blood
pouring from its face. “I JUDGE YOU
GUILTY” he roared and kicked the gravesworn.
Its ribcage caved in and the limp body fell off the cliff and dropped
into the darkness below. Gabranth
retrieved his sword but saw the battle over, Aurea having finished off all 5
giants while Niko had helped the others kill the phantoms which had eventually
died with their masters.
The vault door was caved in by the combined efforts of Bero
and Gabranth. Inside sat the large
divine ember which the 2 carried back.
Despite the danger they managed to take the same route back, a bridge of
bones allowing them to cross the gap with no danger. At the start of the Tomb Spearson sent a
missile of magic into the sky, signalling the attack. The knights of Havel cleared a path for the
group to escape with the ember.
Back at the burg Oscar met Gabranth as he cleaned his blade. “Have you found a name for it yet?” asked
Oscar.
“I believe so” replied Gabranth.
“I thought so. Bero
already briefed me. Good work Judge Gabranth.”
Gabranth looked at Oscar with knowing in his eyes. “Thank you sir.”
Oscar nodded and left.
As Oscar walked away Gabranth turned back to his blade. As he cleaned it he traced the newly etched
figures in his blade. Judgement.
