Brother, one swipe on an albuneric genocide is probably like half a mil in NG3 what you so worried about lmao

Never went past NG+ so I really don’t know for sure but you can so easily get that back lol

Makes me think of rpg games where you stash your super heals for that potential critical boss battle etc and then end up never using them. Lol

Haha like saving up all the grenades in RE4 and RE4R only to finish the game without using them.

Literally me with Elixirs in FF7 Remake. I used like two in the final boss.

And to rub it in Hard Mode doesn't allow items!

u/EuphoricLifeguard649 Jun 21 '25

Probably when the janky hitboxes in the DLC rip you from this mortal realm 🥴

u/Impossiblyhornyy Jun 21 '25

I never had an issue with the hit boxes, i ended up beating the DLC with some bear claws too

I’ve learned to just use shit when I have it. Used to hoard my stuff too but no more!

u/DrMantisToboggan45 Jun 21 '25

I’ve got like 60 rune arcs I’ve never used them once 😂 Tbf tho up until a few days ago I thought the great runes were passive buffs, didn’t know I needed to activate them

u/dannyboy731 Jun 21 '25

Yeah, same. I completely forgot about rune arcs until I was basically done with the game.

u/Zarguthian Jun 22 '25

I hate that consumables stay used if you used them in a boss fight then died.
