There's an e-celeb stream on Wednesday featuring three streamers. Otherwise, people might phone-record gameplay from the PAX booth (which will undoubtedly show more content than what the Bamco reps did).

you know what invaders need

more gimmicks

I'd be fine with the current system if they got more things like the obscuring ring.

Redpill me on archdeacons staff. It sounds great, you can use sorceries effectively while using high faith for buffs.

>>170725082
It's the best staff in the game if you have the massive stat requirements to make the scaling work.

what's the rough maximum SL you can go to and still get summoned/summons at pontiff duels and late game coop like NK, champ, etc?
asking before i accidentally overlevel my glass cannon character
thanks

>>170724271

>Stab it twice in the Humanity and it disperses and leaks out

Interesting.

>>170724953
if invaders got a buff for each phantom the host had summoned, it'd be really nice. and that buff could be split between multiple invaders. stuff like a % damage boost, or at least an absorption buff.

if an invader black crystals out, does the host and phantoms get estus charges back as if they'd killed him?

>>170725580
Nope, they get nothing.

>>170725389
You could just remove the hp debuff.

>>170724271

Those dudes look a lot like the Human Effigies.

>>170725180
200

>>170725180
Champ is probably around level 80. NK you can easily go up to 100, maybe even higher.
For Pontiff duels you could technically go all the way up to 140, since a lot of people throwing their signs down are level 120.

>>170725613
wonderful

>host and phantom constantly trading off time for estus charges
>host throws all his throwing knives and firebombs at me
>get distance and BC out

it's a petty victory, but i'll take it

>>170725580
No. It's a way to give the finger to gankers after you have annoyed the shit out of them and had them use all their estus. It's not much, but it is something.

There even is a high chance that you will invade them right afterwards(because of dried finger), this time you having estus and they don't.

>>170725082
With 13 int + scholar's ring or 18 int you can use great heavy soul arrow (probably the most fp-efficient spell in the game) as effectively as a dedicated int build. It's good for clearing out mooks or enemies on faith builds you have no decent options against, like the dragonslayer armor.

>>170725580
They don't get shit. Which gets really funny if you end up invading them again, as you now have full estus and they haven't recovered any.

What's the most common weapons on DS2? I'm not used to PVP and I'm having a hard time adapting to other players so I figured I should try out some of the more common weapons to get a feel for their range/moveset.
I'm using the GS but I'm down for anything fun.
STR focused build but I'm gonna start dumping points in dex too for quality since this is my first run and I just wanna try stuff out.
Suggestions would be appreciated

Outside of the standard longsword/estoc that are indeed still very good in that game too, the Warped Sword, Red Iron Twinblade/Santier's Spear, and the Sanctum Mace are all pretty strong weapons, though several of those are more dex-oriented.
Thankfully, there's a chart for this, so take a look and see what looks interesting.

>>170726494
I think I would actually alt-f4 and uninstall the game at that point.

>>170725389
Remove the rounding down of estus. Just set a flat cap on how much you can bring. Example: you can only bring 10 estus max, divided between regular estus and ashen estus. Low level invasions are fucking awful.

>you brought 3 estus? lol now you have 1

Being a blue is such bullshit. In the one time a day I actually get summoned I killed two of my covenant's arch-enemies and drove off the invader and got no reward at all.

How the hell do you pvp in 3? Do you HAVE to twink as hard as possible to beat the typical invaders in early/mid-game? It feels like their health bars are a mile long, and they seem to have endless estus.

Every black phantom I encounter also employs the same strategy, usually with a katana or straight sword: roll spam into rolling R1, then R1 spam. If they miss the rolling R1, they just back off and wait for stamina then start rolling again. I can't seem to catch their rolls, and they all seem to have an extra 5 feet of range on all of their swings.

Even if I manage to get a few hits in, they just sprint behind monsters and chug. I feel like invasions weren't this difficult before, even SL1 twinks in DaS1 could be beaten.

>>170727090
Hey, if more people can finally get a playthrough of the game, I'm down for it. Especially since there might finally be a way to play the game without the framerate shitting itself.

it would be amazing if they somehow got online working, even though it would probably be even more dead than it is on ps3

>>170726512
BUT WILL I BE ABLE TO BE THE OLD MONK?

>>170727503
It recently got a Patreon, so the guy in charge works full time on it.

>>170727676
that strategy is literally every invaders in dark souls

you could always summon 3 buttbros to carry you through levels on a palanquin, or git gud and wear them down because they can't have as many estus as you at whichever point you're at due to charge round-down

>>170727676
>How the hell do you pvp in 3?

You don't.
You play the game as it is, a cashgrab fueled by marketing and hype with a mediocre pve and a terrible pvp. You play for 150 hours or so and you leave it there because it will stop being fun.

I don't want to be a faggot, though, I want to stomp these guys into the ground.

I've been trying to practice by putting my summon sign down in invasion-heavy areas, but the host always summons as many phantoms as possible and it's not exactly a fair fight, or I get stunlocked by R1 spam and die before the black phantom runs out of stamina.

Also, I've encountered guys who just summon phantoms while (what I assume is a friend of theirs) farms them, which is pretty aggravating.

>>170727917
Ah, I remember when 1 was the shitty knock-off that barely brought anything new to the table and just copy-pasted Demon's Souls characters and levels with references out the ass.

I remember when 2 was the cashgrab fueled by marketing and hype with terrible pve and pvp that took a full year of patches to reach a playable state.

This shit gets really old.

If you're this bitter, is there any reason you're in this general outside of spite?

There is plenty that can be done with multi-mob fights, and things like DS2's variable turning restrictions were an evolution which I think would have been good for the game. The first thing that needs to be done is to push people off the lock-on system and get the general population comfortable with free aiming things. The extra control over direction allows new ideas in combat, and multiple targets are the best way to encourage those new ideas.

>>170728281
>I don't want to be a faggot
>I want to stomp these guys into the ground

Pick one and only one.

>>170727676
You can use seeds to deal with the "hiding behind monsters" thinge. Invaders in dark souls 3 have a hp debuff and less estus than you(most of the time). Invaders usually are better players than hosts so you might just have to get good. Try parrying them if they are as predictable as you describe.

Maybe even somebody on /dsg/ is willing to protect you against twinks.

>SL1 twinks in DaS1 could be beaten

Dark souls twinks had it WAY easier with 99 soft humanity and insta-backstabs.

>>170728426
I did it by using cat ring and ladderstalling. they don't know what to do after a plunging attack and use their thunder smite attack which gives me enough time to stagger and then kill them

>>170728530
One thing that I didn't like about the turning restrictions in 2 is that it made a lot of weapons feel like you were hit with a limitation that wasn't compensated for when compared to some of your other options. For example, the turning restriction on a rapier versus a straight sword does feel like something of a punishment, though I suppose you could argue that the damage types are different at the very least.
Still, I would agree that having that mechanic meant you needed to work around something new, which I wish they had expanded on instead of just scrapping.

>>170729240
Rapiers significantly out-damage straight swords in 2 because of the counter bonus, making them one of the highest DPS weapons in the game. That's a pretty respectable trade off.
Also since DS2 had proper dual wielding mechanics you had the opportunity to create complimentary builds such as 1H Rapier with another weapon covering the turning restriction. Estoc+Longsword is extremely effective and covers all bases. Builds like this are where DS2 really expanded on the Souls combat system, as you then have 4 useful attack buttons each with their own purpose. Rather than just differences in range, speed, damage and swing arc, DS2 adds in turning ability so you're also considering angles, and have to use all 4 buttons situationally.

You are correct. Bloodborne happens after the Beastly Scourge has already set in and wiped out the town and surrounding area, and various bullshit related to the Great Ones has wiped out places from further than that. You're essentially cleaning up after it and preventing it from spreading, by murdering all the beasts and ayys, and telling the Moon Presence to fuck off.

I'm partway through the second DLC, which I've never played before. My main goal is to beat Fume Knight and get his soul so whenever I get to Ornifex I can make the FUGS and upgrade that as soon as possible.

They're definitely the pre-phase of Pilgrim Butterflies. That has been known. No question, though. The Angels and the Pilgrims are NOT one and the same. They are related, but not the same.

Dark Souls 3 has the best PVE content. PVP whiners can go back to spamming rapiers.

>>170726512

is my flash player lagging or does it just stutter quite literally every 3 seconds

>>170734071
Estoc is mainly a PvP weapon due to speed and poise damage. The Rapier will put more damage out, but both may struggle to stagger the beefier mobs in the DLCs. Mace is a pretty good PvE weapon because it stagger locks fairly well and the strike damage is handy.

Finally got to rapiers. What happened to ricards? It feels so inferior compared to estoc and crow quills. I've seen it's wa oneshotting people with darkmoon/lightning blade buff, was it nerfed somehow with other rapiers?

>>170735595
Try beating Friede with a greathammer that was a nightmare. Had to switch to Millwood Battleaxe to do it.

How would you react to:

Poison:
Now lasts 30 seconds, and deals 1% of HP + 8 flat damage every second.

?

>>170735794
I think I'd probably react by mossing it famalam.
This would make Farron Keep unplayable.

You can beat her with any weapon if you keep fishing for select moves you can punish.

>>170735742
Greathammers are pretty easy against friede, stomped her on my str build with a heavy zweihander on ng+.

>>170735951
It's A on sharp. Maybe it's like S scaling on painting guardian.

>>170735924
It's from the patch, yes. I'm considering playing it.

>>170735892
>>170735901
I mean how would you react seeing it in FromSoft patch notes? Obviously mossing it is the way to go. I'd say it probably makes poison strats viable.

Farron would be a shithole, I think, but probably not too bad. There's only really one area where you can't possibly make the run without getting poisoned, and that's the dusk cave. Everywhere else you can wait for a bit to clear it. Either that, or ever actually use poisonbite/purple moss, which nobody bothers with.

>>170736179
At this point just change every poison source to toxic, as poison is useless in both PvE and PvP.

>>170736118
The damage is overall lower though. Probably to compensate for how buffing works. I know the damage calculation is weird with the weapon skill.

I'll try to get it. Also first summoning and the guy has 2 other phantoms and they all get killed by 1 invader.

>>170736335
Early summons are squishy as hell and usually not very coordinated.

Have you considered to get the storyteller staff instead of investing into pyromancy for the poison gas? Storyteller WA is better than the cloud pyros since it scales. Saves some points you know?

>>170725724
You just sound like a retard.

>>170735735

It's fine. The WA is what sets it apart from other rapiers, although the Crow's Quills have a lighter version of it. It's definitely a lot better in 3 than it was in 1 (due to poise), but I think its best iteration was in 2 because the lunge had the most insane tracking of any weapon in the game.

I'm the guy who killed andre. I just nuked nito with fire, and I had plenty of pyromancies left to burn him with, he was weak. I have all the souls now.
I finally made it. It's just gwyn left.

>>170736179

>I'm considering playing

Go for it. I did an INT run and it was pretty cool playing around with all the new catalyst WAs.

I hope the dude tones down the Irithyll Straight Sword though because he went way overboard with the AR + scaling on that thing. Pontiff Curved Sword was just fine, though, and made for a nice additional option for sorcerers.

Fromsoft needs to be weighting Poison and Frost build up in the same way they weighted bleed on the CCS.
ie. Forget you even gave the thing bleed and make the rest of its stats best in class as if the Bleed were completely free.

I have to wonder if poor weighting for things like Frost and Bleed is responsible for some of From's barmy balancing decisions. Like Scythes having less AR than straight swords, or the Carthus Curved GS being entirely pointless.

>>170736841
I want to try scythes just because of the new holding animation. Pontiff knight scythe is DEX+FTH which seems really interesting. Unfortunately, a few miracles are still kind of shit. I may do the sorcerer run first, but the need for FTH for dark sorceries is way higher now, and so if you're doing INT+FTH you might as well just go pure caster and use every spell.

>>170737020
Never had problems getting the storyteller to drop but I heard it's supposed to be rare.

Some guy keeps requesting it in the comments, and he has a point. Spamming lightning spear at point blank deals almost twice the damage of lifehunt scythe, costs less, and is faster. I'd love to see it either do a fuckton more damage, or heal you for the full value of damage you deal to make it great for trading, especially with the sunlight talisman's 30% absorbtion during unfaltering prayer.

CCGS, not CCS.
It's 60AR behind the Exile Greatsword on a Quality build, and up to 100AR behind on a Dex build while also having a garbage WA
Curved Greatswords as a weapon class don't really make sense, the Exile is the only one with respectable damage for its speed and there's no good reason why every other GS's damage is so far behind. It's like somebody at From decided a difference of 5-6 weight and some base stat requirements was worth 100AR.

Same. It'd be a unique way of healing for faith builds instead of just using the standard heal aid/heal miracles forever. Combat healing is a cool concept, as is miracle trading. With the damage + heal, you'd actually win PvP trades against all but the strongest weapons too, which is only fair for how damn slow it is.

>Do you HAVE to twink as hard as possible to beat the typical invaders in early/mid-game? It feels like their health bars are a mile long, and they seem to have endless estus.
Any build should invest a lot into vigor, that's a given. Low-level invader probably uses optimal weapon for his level, probably in raw or other elemental infusion without scaling.
Rolling around is named "spacing", do that shit too. Learn about how phantom range works, don't backpedal mindlessly.
Straight sword spam is countered by parrying or a stable 100% phys protection shield (if you're a shieldbabby). Parrying a second attack with shield after blocking is piss easy.

>>170738708
It's canon you didn't though.

I remember reading some shit about how Nito was basically insane after the Necromancer cult was using him as a power source while he slept though. I like how DS2 characterized him as a chill dude, and apparently Memezaki did too.

I beat gwyn on my first try. But it was soltaire who finished him off. WTF guys?

>>170727676
If all they do is roll R1 at you, they're a terrible shitter and all you need to do is parry that unbelievably shit and predictable attack for katana/SS especially.

Invaders are also usually so used to 3-4 man gank parties that they'll be optimized to fuck. If you're actually getting invaded as a solo host, you have bad luck.

Rolling is stupidly safe though, so you have to really learn well how to catch them. Estus is even faster than BB blood vials, so there's that too. They only have half yours though.

If you're really shit at PvP and they love using mobs for cover, grab some seeds from the giant tree next to Firelink.

Are estus shards and undead bone fragments visible drops?

She also can't be sweaty because the place is ice cold. And she can't be covered in bacteria because everything there died centuries ago and it's too cold for any microbes to survive.

In all likelihood she smells of absolutely nothing.

The WA is hard to land but part two can land regardless of stunlocking with the first, in addition to having HA.

Isn't it, though? The Fume UGS was unquestionably the best possible AR for UGSes in the game pre-international and it's about 5-ish units of weight heavier than the previous UGS. Weight is a big thing in 3 compared to other games as VIT is a shit stat and armor is insubstantial on higher end weight loads but still a necessity to a point.

Early armor upgrades aren't a very efficient use of materials unless you're doing shitloads of farming. Switch to a different weapon or even backtracking/exploring anor londo some more to find a new weapon/way to upgrade your halberd would probably help you out a lot if you're still at only +5.

>breaks the game more than the broadsword he's using?
For like until the end of High Wall. SSes are consistently better than axe types.

>Sorry but I fail to see your point.
What? That I'd use a broken weapon or weapon class because they let me get through the game faster and easier to what I'm actually doing? Why would anyone do something so logical and sensible? It's not like every Solaire build fucking starts out with his armor and sword. Not only that but it's not "altering" a build to use an SS before getting to the actual part where you really make the build, and there's nothing wrong with putting like 1 point into FAI and reallocating it at Rosaria.

Clerics candelstickstick/heysel pick. Although clerics has a 12 faith requirement. Crystal sages rapier is the longest rapier but has pretty high physical requirements.

>>170744864
Greatsword of Judgement


Heysel pick is also very versatile.

Anyone else experience an annoying readjusting type of thing when it comes to playing DS1 again after DS3 where the amount of pressure required to be placed on the thumbstick to move forward at normal, not walking speed seems much higher than it is is DS3?

Could just be my controller starting to break down, but I only notice this issue when I go back to DS1.

>>170744704
True that.
Crow Talons got me hard but they are so, so unreliable in PvP. I've had my wins and even I've stomped some people but not on a daily basis.
I mostly eat UGS for dinner when I enter the arena with Crow Mittens.

>>170744761
Im a off-meta guy.
I never ever play broken stuff in vidya, not because Im that sort of guy that says "WOW META IS BAD YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED" people can do whatever they want but I rarely feel attracted by what's good.
I think the only time I used a katana was in DS1 for example, never ever touched the washing people just because it's not my jam.

Problem is people take PvP in this game far too seriously.
>Invasions are nonexistant and unfun.
>FCs are Estoc-UGS fests with no variety whatsoever
>Arena duel matches take far too much time to connect and when they do the guy will be using whatever meta weapon so you'll be playing against the same shit time and time again.
>Arena 4 and 6 man matches never happen because people just like to "muh duel".

Dunno, I feel like I've done everything there is to do in this game.
NG+ is easier than NG desu and I capped at 125 with all my characters aswell.

You don't need to level VIT to use a 17 unit weapon. Even if you did want to level VIT to cover the weight difference, the points you'd drop elsewhere to afford the VIT would still be more than covered by the huge AR difference.

Reminder than Exile GS also has the lowest offensive stat requirements, as its Sharp infusion gives abnormally strong DEX scaling. Meaning a 40/16 Sharp Exile has more AR than a 40/40 Refined Murakumo because the CGS weapon class doesn't make any sense.

I started a character with the Greatsword of Judgement yesterday and I'm loving it. I haven't even really invested in INT at all yet but the WA buff is pretty fucking crazy. Haven't lost as a blue once yet

demon souls is clunky and shit. It doesn't matter that people without a ps4 can play it now because it's pretty shit

But also consider that there's a length difference, and the Murakumo has a broken INT/FAI infusion path

>>170745285
Stuff like that is partially the reason why the sluggish clunky nature of DS2 combat really never bothered me.

FC over, thanks eveyrone for coming.

Still some signs if someone wants to take over.

>>170745650
oh well, thanks for hostin

I wish there was a way to turn off all the resource-hogging features in the game individually.
Why does the game feel the need to render the ghost of a fully detailed player when I'm on lowest settings?

>>170745493
Also; before you cry shennanigans on using a Murakumo for a Pyro build, consider the following:

>>170745479
When people talking about weapon "Tracking" in DS1 and 3, what this usually means is how many frames there are between the point where the attack can instantly snap into any direction it chooses, and the point where it deals damage.

DS2 doesn't have that snap frame, every new animation starts with the same facing as the animation it flows from, and the rate at which you can turn during attack startup is limited depending on the attack. This creates a completely new dynamic for weapons with limited turning like spears, where if you roll through a spear R1 to the side of the spear user, and the user presses R1 again, they just miss you because they can't pivot far enough.

whats better, 50 dex sharp or 40/40 exile CGS?

>>170745965
You know that dark Exile GS has more dark AR than dark murakumo right?

>>170744972
I'm sorry my nigga but I don't have the strength to Aldrich invade 20 more times

>>170746253
But the murakumo got A scaling on dark.

>>170746281
This is pure agony. At this level, everyone has enough HP to survive a parry or backstab so my only counter to ganksquads is gone. Hosts are fucking pussies and only attack when their phantoms attack and immediately run away when you target them.

>>170746214
Refined is better if you're willing to have more than 74 total points into STR/DEX. Less than that and you should go Sharp. Sharp is preferred for efficiency.

>played around 300 hours of ds3
>only just now spot the corpse that has the partizan on it
What a fun weapon.

>>170746253
Barely more AR for a shorter and less level efficient build. I'm not saying 2 levels is mind shattering of a difference but Pyro weapons are predominantly longer (Onyx, Estoc, Witch's Locks) anyways.

>>170746617
Yes but lower base damage.

Dark Exile GS +10 at 40/40 int/fai: 170+238=408 dark damage
Dark Murakumo under same conditions: 156+244=400 dark damage

Miniscule difference, I know. But keep in mind the Exile also has higher physical damage.

>>170743625
You just need a good shield. If you don't have one, just upgrade a mediocre shield to get decent stability. If you aren't a scrub and thus, don't use shields, then you just need to get gud

I FINALLY got invaded in DS1 after more than 100 hours of playtime across multiple characters!

Cheeky bugger thought he'd plunging attack me as I ran past the corner on the way to ricard in sens. Too bad for him he instead got stunlocked by 4 halberd r1s then died. Thanks for the humanity buddy.

Mist pyromancies, tears of denial, flame surge, end yourself with the weeb sword when you get to 1hp.
Make extensive use of the point up gesture.

I would use the storyteller's staff weapon art instead of the mists. Much more efficient.

Anor londo has always been a pain in the ass to run through.

>complete shitter on my first das3 playthrough

I figured out how to circle around them quick though.

>>170747173
Is there any reason to choose the spear over the partizan or vice versa? I'm looking at em in game and they both have the same scaling and damage and moveset for r1s at least.

Is there a super easy way to get the Covenant items for DKS3 Offline? I can't get online on my PC right now since my Ethernet cord went to shit.

will trade for Dragonslayer Swordspear
PS4 btw

>>170747910
just use the cheat engine, no one cares if you use it to get covenant items

>>170747910
Use CE to either spawn them in, or have a 100% drop rate going to make farming for them super quick, however sunlight medals via offline farming are a massive bitch to get that way even with 100% droprate.

>>170747401
There's no reason to use the spear in any of the games

>>170747401
partizan has swinging attacks that are fun for r2's, and also the meme glaive spin bash thing.

>>170748095
How comes?

The normal halberd is my weaponfu and is fantastic so the weapon class itself should be fine. Are they just outclassed?

>>170748190

>>170748278
>Are they just outclassed?
I'm pretty sure anon was referring to the generic spear weapon called Spear, which is pretty useless.
Also, the halberd is a halberd, not a spear.

I got a quick lore related question if no one minds answering.
Is there some connection between the Deep and the Painted World? A few of the Deep related spells (Gnaw, I believe) mentions how there are insects that dwell within the deep and the Paint World's Rot is associated with those blood flies.
I would have normally brushed this off as a coincidence, but one of TRC dlc's leaked images mentions locusts, which got me wondering a bit.
