Stop summoning in the Lake of Rot

[♡ マナ ♡]

And if you do, at least have patience that I might have ran out of Boluses and I have to wait for the rot to not build up

This is like the 5th time a host gets impatient and sends me home because I'm not swimming in rot for their amusement.

Use Flame, Cleanse Me

sounds like griefers. like the ones who bug the dragon in limgrave and run a mile out watching the summon die.

I've run a full int build. Never was there a point I couldn't swap out at least one spell. Have fun running out of blouses I guess. Good luck OP.

At least farm up the runes and then just buy 99 boluses.

Pretty sure you can't buy those boluses.

Yeah I tried looking for a merchant for them and nothing, I maxed out every bolus except for that, and then witnessed how the buds for crafting them are "extremely rare"

Sucks

[Victor the wildlife hunter]

I can drop you those boluses

[Señor Brown]

Rot, madness, and death blight boluses are in limited supply for each playthrough, as are their ingredients.

Either use the Flame, Cleanse Me incantation (with the Faith Talisman if needed), save scum to reset your boluses/ingredients after each multiplayer session, or wait to see if a DLC adds an infinite supply.

Flame Cleanse Me + Beast repellant torch

Makes the area SOOO much easier to get through

[Wolf]

What I usually do is go to the buttons before the host leaving a stone and wait for them there to push it. Saves times while the rot is decaying.

dont let yourself be summoned in lake of rot if you arent prepped for it then?

I get summoned there when I'm all the way to Nokstella.

I'm level 1 and used it. How exactly is your Int build remotely relevant for a 12 faith spell?

You can get up to 12 slots in the game, of which most spells take 1 and most spell slots are acquired before Altus Plateau. I'm confident you can manage to fix a single slot spell into your build for one of the shortest areas in the game.

You should really be equipped with that spell, anyways. It is simply too useful be it invasions, summoned in an area with rot (which there are several locations in the game), or other status effects.

I mean, you aren't progressing on your own save at the time so if you are planning to coop why not just go in reasonably prepared if that is within your summon range?

I think you should reconsider what spells you have equipped if you have all of your slots taken up that you can't spare a single flexible slot, especially considering you're pure INT which is arguably the least slot expensive setup.

Two of the only 3 slot spells in the game are pure Faith...

There are 11 spells of 2 slot requirement, 5 of which are Int magic but they're all bad except Meteorite of Astel & Ranni's Dark Moon (no, if you think either of the moon spells are good you don't know how the dmg reduction works... swap to a physical spell for high mres enemies instead and everything else should melt faster than the weak debuff matters. dark moon is only a bit acceptable because of the easy frostbite but there are good alternatives, too).

The rest are 1 slot spells...

I'd double check your build and reconsider what you got setup from the sound of things, even with minimal info here.
