jesus fucking christ i'm having an aneurysm

There was a glowing bag (the same bag that appears when a player drops an item) on the floor infront of the corpse holding the firekeeper soul in Undead Parish, that contained one Prism Stone.

I've cleared out the area and killed the boss so nobody could've played with me and dropped it. And nobody has played with me in this area on this character or in general on this PSN account

Is this normal? It was exactly one prism stone too. I'm currently looking at it right now while charging my phone to take a picture, as I am on my ps3.

You should have a key.
On the way to the giant there was a locked door

>>166246892
Get a controller first, then explore to your heart's content. You can either go in the hole or wander around the other areas back at majula.

Level adaptability until you get around 100 agility

>>166246892
Killing the giant gave you a key. Use that key to access doors you couldn't open before. Or head back to Majula and travel through a tunnel off to the right side of the area if you're facing the mansion.

My biggest problem with NK is the timing of the sky strike

This game is riddled with 12 year old children of the nigger species lmao

Hey /dsg/, relatively inexperienced player here, are there any character builds out there that are good for a mix of melee and magic casting? Think paladin or spell-sword, something along those lines.

>>166247046
See bottom. I should have clarified I guess.

>>166247062

>>166246892
Use the key you got from the giant to open more doors in the forest, one leads to the next boss and area.

There are 5 branching paths going from Majula, you can take any of them. Here they are from easiest to hardest:

>Forest of Fallen Giants
>Heide's Tower
>Huntsman's Copse (only after Heide)
>Shaded Woods (requires a fragrant branch of yore to open)
>The Pit (requires a way to survive the fall)

Heide's and Forest of Fallen Giants both lead to Lost Bastille, which is the next area for most players.

>>166247267
You can use any weapon with a magic or enchanted infusion to do both high melee and high magic damage.You can also just use normal weapons and buff them with magical buffs.

You won't be quite as powerful in one area as a pure melee / pure spells (because you have to divide your stats up between Int and Str/Dex instead of just picking one) but you'll be a lot more versatile.

>>166247387
What level?

You literally can't use the starting knight helmet, nameles knight helmet or elite knight helmet with chests other than their own because they have a fucking neck seam

you can't use Faraam with it's OWN FUCKING CHEST because of the neck seam

Seriously fuck the A-team

>>166247321
It is "possible" to play with KB+M. But a controller literally costs almost nothing (you can buy a Dualshock 3 or 360 controller from a used games store for probably $5-10), and it's extremely useful for playing other games as well (many indie games you can buy on Steam also work very well with controller).

Anyways, there are some doors you can go through with that new key, one is in that area with the huge turtle guy and the sword that you walk up that leads to a trap. That leads to another boss.

As for the huge knight guys at Heide's Tower of Flame, a good shield helps, they don't do that much stamina damage except for the greatsword guys. Learn to roll and strafe to the right as needed. The sitting-down guys are much tougher though, but you'll learn to deal with them eventually.

>>166248134
That kind of stuff, along with how many helmets just have blanked out eye sockets instead of showing your face underneath, really shows how lazy they were with this stuff.

The physics bits on armor are definitely improved but other than that DaS2 had way higher quality armor in most cases when it came to those kind of details.

They're not very strong in 3.

No, not implying the games aren't fun, but how do (You) have fun?

>>166247936
Heide's gives you access to miracles. Lost Bastille has tons of good loot.

Level up like this, in this order:

>enough health to
>enough attunement to equip basic support spells + offensive spells
>enough ADP to reach 92, 96, 100, and 105 agility in that order. 96 or 100 preferred.
>enough stamina to roll 2-3 times and still be able to attack, or enough to attack 2-3 times and still roll
>enough weight cap to wear the best armor you have and weapons, and stay under 70% with the weight cap rings
>enough strength, dex, int, faith to use your weapons and spells you want to use

After that, focus on scaling and if you are having trouble rolling, reaching the 105 agility softcap,

>>166249134
NG+ over and over trying to achieve perfection when fighting bosses with a variety of weapons and playstyles.

It's a trick to reduce load times when warping into firelink shrine. Kind of annoying on PC though, since load times on an SSD are nearly always 5-10 seconds or less anyway.

>virtually all other greatswords share the bastard sword moveset with Hollowslayer and drakeblood being the ONLY exceptions.
>virtually all straight swords. I'm 99% certain that the broad sword is the only straightsword with the dashing R2

I think that we can all agree that in each game, the best ending is:

>DaS1: link fire

>DaS2: chill with Aldia

>DaS3: end of fire, cuddle with Firekeeper

>BB: become squid

Not about your dumb PvP weapon variety, but how DaS 2 has less overall moves since it's easier to just make a model break their wrists than to motion capture slashing in various specific ways and because limited funds they simply ported over animations from one class to another. That is all he was saying but suddently some faggot needs to come and talk about how it actually has many animations

W10 and W8 are notorious for causing issues with PC games. There's always threads about them on gaming forums with issues specific to those versions. For older games it also means some software might not work right with it anymore.

And all Microsoft does is change the interface and tweak things a bit. With their new stuff they looked more into selling apps. It's really just the interface that changed the most, and the fact that the OS will get security updates and etc. MS also withholds some new versions of things like DirextX to try and force gamers to upgrade eventually.

Part of the problem is that not everything is Win10 compatible yet. There's one specific program that I used to use that still isn't completely Win10 compliant, along with the dearth of older programs that just didn't move on with the times.

I may not be able to turn off all of the botnet features (supposedly only Enterprise version can do that), but it beats paying $80-200 when they finally stop supporting Win7.

Because DS1 players are used to just rushing after the host and spamming tracers or chaos weapons until they win.

He does that if you ring the bell. Which is definitely in character because you're going against the path of the dragon he is trying to walk by doing that.

No, he really is that tough, killing him is akin to fighting a marathon boss. If you're having trouble, try to hug his left leg since his attacks have trouble reaching there.

A shield can also buy you some space since his only non-physical attack is a Dark orb that he only really uses if you put too much distance between the two of you.

It's easily the weakest of the five games because it's literally patched together from scraps of a previous game, but thanks to Tanimura it also has a bunch of great features and mechanics that make it fun despite its flaws.

It also plays very different from the others since it's the only one not directed by Miyazaki, and the movement takes a lot of getting used to (it's not as tight as even DaS1, everything can feel slow and floaty like you're moving in molasses). But it's still a fun experience, and if you can buy it for around $10 during a Steam sale it's more than worth the money.

WHY CAN'T THE HEADPIECE BE AN ITEM DAMMIT

>>166257616
Fume Ultra GS is hands down the best strength weapon in-game. Period.
Milwood BA
Yhorm's Greataxe is the longest ultra weapon.
Heavy Broadsword or Longsword. BS has more AR, but the LS has thrusting attacks.
Milwood Greatbow
Dragon Tooth is the longest greatmace, and the only viable one.
Greatlance is the beast spear/pike, but requires immense patience and skill. It can hit well into the 1000's with a fully-charged 2HR2 counterhit using the Leo Ring.
Greatshields are great. Moaning Greatshield has the best weight:absorption:stability aside from the Greatshield of Glory, which reduces stamina regeneration by 45% of base.

I play it the proper crazy way and act like a standard phantom, and even help with the boss. It's pretty damn hard to earn most peoples trust so I end up haunting parts of the levels and watching and helping when I can.

Most of my hosts die of natural causes. Few times I've had hosts summon multiple phantoms to "deal" with me who all die of natural causes. Cliffs, enemies, general foolishness. Then they end up stuck with me and I got a new best buddy.

I mean, I kind of feel like a dick, killing the host while he has two guys whose time and rewards ride on him beating one of the easier bosses in the game, but fuck it, he brought two phantoms in, they don't deserve it.

The only problem left now is that I don't have Obscuring due to still doing Sirris's quest, that would make these so much more fun.

I'm not trying fooling just autistic. I've spent so much time as a "sunbro" that I've enjoyed the spin on helping people with friendly fire who also generally hate my guts.

Some people quickly trust you if you aren't hostile, but they're usually a bit twitchy. Most try their best to murder you, which is why if they become hostile I sonic off into the level and keep my distance. It's kind of fun. Sometimes they slowly build up trust with you. I've run with full password phantom groups that tolerate my existence and been asked by some people to join them in a next area as a summon.

Yeah man, who'd have guessed?

executioner's greatsword. it's basically a baby FUGS with no stab attacks. When anything dies in the world you're in, you also get 3 FP. This anon gets 6 FP when anything dies since he has two.

>>166260118
Why do you need two of them for? You don't have any spells attuned.

>>166260291
The man is dual-wielding Executioner's Greatswords.

>>166260092
I understand the whole git gud thing, but I really don't mind it since I like helping folks out.

Only had one boss invader that intended to kill my host in a boss fight so far. I found it fun, personally.

>panic themselves to death
Yeah it's how I've gotten basically all my shackles, and how most phantoms I've dealt with die. I just play keep away and it wares them down and they fuck up.

Then I claim the host as my best friend.

>>166260218
It was fun
>>166260386
I'm down for Gundyr.

Pure Strength or Str/Fth?

>>166260014
That's a boy and you know it

>>166260620
Is wolnirs holy sword waste of time?

>>166260386

Sure! Where should I meet you?

>>166260620
Diminishing returns means you're not getting very much beyond 27, 34 or 40 Str if you're two-handing (as you should with Str weapons). Might as well put the points into something else.

I mean, even when it's the same player.
Invaded the same guy two times and when he was alone he was way better.

>>166260386
>Why do you need two of them for?
It's a cosplay. I can't even one hand it. Also the FP gain gets thicker and easier to see, helps locating the host.

>>166260509
Panic is a strong weapon, the hardest to deal with are those who don't panic and keep timing their rolls and resummoning buddies.

>>166259892
Have fun with the skellies then.

>>166260691
It's pretty good as a physical weapon, but I'm quite sure the WA is still trash, haven't tried it since they buffed the animation. It's also unbuffable, if you depend on using resins or Blessed Weapon, then you may as well go for something else.

Alright, if you're coming to FUGSgirl's gundy, sign's by untended grave BF.

Watchdogs can't invade you if you've already beaten Crystal Sage and Abyss Watchers, right?

>>166260885
They sure gave STR/FTH build the middle finger this time around.

>>166260845
Y-you too

>>166260971

Sign's down, using password 'dsg'.

>>166261062
Before it got buffed, it didn't even have Faith scaling, it just had a Faith requirement to wield and was otherwise trash.

Faith in general sucks in 3, but it's been slowly getting better.

>>166261062
str/fth is literally not viable until SL 150 or something

>>166261170
backlash of DaS2. Like poison

Whats more effective for new game plus, im pure strength right now but dex seems kind of interesting (the dancers swords are cool), which one is more effective dps wise? Should i bother respecing?

>>166261281
It doesn't matter PvE is a joke

lmfao that was the fastest gundyr kill i've ever done nice work you silly boys

who wants to /dlc/ now???????

>>166261392

Twinaxe bro here. Count me in. I've been hoping to get back into the dlc content, haven't been able to spend much time in there.

>>166261392
Sure.
Have you considered coming to FCs? STR builds are always fun to fight.

>>166261229
Should I stick or just go to my melee build guy?

>>166261464
Yes

>>166261281
If you're trying to breeze through PvE, go farm for some Twinaxes. It has an infinite combo in PvE that stunlocks 90% of enemies.

>>166261445
>>166261457
Will talk to old uncle gael and get in there after I collect some variousness lying around. You can leave your signs over in that area if you'd like.

>why dont you join FCs?

I'm getting this character to 125 for that reason.

I REALLY wish I didn't have to go through NG+2 just to make the build I want though. Super frustrating. Someone donate me Havel's +2, Ring of Favor +2, and Chloranthy+2

Just wanted to share my good news with you /dsg/ that I recently completed my sl1 run in Dark Souls 3. All bosses, including dlc, and no prisoners chain. Hardest boss for me to beat or more or less the one that took me the most attempts was the final boss, Soul of Cinder. Really really enjoyed the sl1 run though and I encourage more people to do it. Gives a really nice challenge and you're put in a position to really master each boss and learn them very thoroughly, which I like.

Now to try and finish my Bloodborne bl4 run. Still have Orphan, Laurence, and MP left and then that's done.

What's the longest regular hammer in DaS3? BS hammer?

>turtleguy is dead
>yuria didn't spawn

but why

>>166261670
Do you have 5 dark sigils?

>>166261586
>what is CE

>>166261670
Did you "Draw out inner strength" 5 times? You have to do that otherwise she doesn't spawn and you're fucked until NG+

>>166261643

Congrats!

Don't run off so quickly. I was trying to drop you something.
