Threadly reminder...

Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords is every single thing wrong with this game thrown into one moveset. Jesus Christ... they are by far the most obnoxious thing to fight against.

It's not surprising that every jackass now flocks to the weapon. Flashy attacks, outrageous damage combos, stupid hyper armor, huge hit box, ranged attack.

They put so much effort into this particular paired weapon, and then you have things like the Splitleaf Greatsword that has nothing unique outside of the weapon art. Same goes for the fat humanity guy Curved Greatsword. Nothing special but weapon arts.

Why is it acceptable to be this fucking lazy and uncreative. I've never gotten an "anime" feeling from the series before this game's 2 DLC's, but boy, did they sure go all the way with it now.

Okay I just finished TRC by face-tanking Gael with perseverance and staggering him every second hit of Vordt's hammer.
I have some questions.

1. Was Lapp sincere when he swore eternal friendship? I mean he is summonable as his true self for Judicator Argo.
2. What were Locusts trying to accomplish? Were they encouraging you to wake the princess and finally break the status quo?
3. When the second locust spoke of a girl who slew her kin and was still welcomed by the Abyss, who did he mean? Sirris? The whole neither moon nor night sky granted comfort thing sounded like her.
4. So Dark Sign is basically Gwyn's curse upon humans for interacting with the Abyss?
5. Did Ashen One complete the Dark Soul or there are still parts spread out amongst Hollows?
6. What was in the fucking egg?
7. Why is Shira such a bitch?
8. Painted World of Shamelessly Yearning Ash when? DLC3/DaS4/new series?

There will be a patched / hidden true ending, right? Or if not an ending cutscene they'll let you see or explore the finished painting at the very least. The church with the painter wasn't burning before if I recall correct so it wouldn't be that surprising if From patched in new additional stuff. Surely the Dark Soul blood not unlocking anything right now is just meant to create a space of time during which the painter actually paints the fucking thing.

I mean the definite final ending of the series can't be simple "thanks for bringing me THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER OBJECT IN THE ENTIRE WORLD, maybe you some day will see me actually use it for something lol". It's not even a case of solving previous lore stuff people have been asking for before, the DLC as of now doesn't even finish its own storyline.

Weapons that have movesets that do everything for you are basically just the melee equivalent of spells: Press button --> get instant gratification.

Only spells do not make you invulnerable to poise and they certainly do not 1 shot properly built players.

Kinda glad Dark Souls is over with. The weapons were just getting progressively easier to use (it started with the Sainter's Spear) and the community's skill ceiling can finally climb its way back up to where it belongs. If you'd like to continue leaning on those crutch weapons, be my guest but they won't help you when the next souls-like game comes out.

Are you serious? I didn't watch any lore videos or read any treatises compiled by nerds about it, but I could piece together the story pretty easily just by paying some goddamn attention to what was going on. I mean, yeah, there's cosmic mindfuckery going on, but the that's only in the context of the characters; the story itself is pretty straightforward.

Why was the Darkmoon Covenant taken from Velka and given to Gwyndolin after internal struggle?

What is the Age of the Deep, the nature of Deep and it's relevance in regards to Humanity? (it comes from Humans but isn't the Dark Soul, it's 'dregs')

What was the connection between the Primordial Serpents and Lothric? There are statues all over , but essentially no mention whatsoever of them being there -at best, a tenuous link to a 'scholar' who told the Princes not to link the fire (which wouldn't have been Frampt since he was all about it, and not Kaathe since he's dead)

How did Kaathe even die? What was his plan after DaS1 that caused him to switch his support to the Sable Church? He went from trying to totally end the fire (something you can actually DO in 3) to supporting it being usurped and used for Humanity

Who was the 3rd sister of the Sable Church, what was the Sable Church involved in, literally anything really relating to Londor at all. We didn't even find out if Londor WAS the Ringed City.

What happened to Gertrude, who were the Angels that visited her, what caused the 'Civil War' in Lothric of Knights fighting against each other and the two faiths colliding?

What actually happened to Ornstein? Why did he just die at the Nameless King fight? Did he challenge him?

What the fuck happened to Flann? If we're assuming Gwynevere was the Queen of Lothric then she certainly broke up with him and vanished, yet then fled Lothric too

We never found anything out about the beast mentioned since the very first game, and every game after in the Ring of the Evil Eye

Why did Havel have occult weapons in his hidden stash and why was he (if it was in fact him) locked away in the tower?
>>
>>172470107
>>172470383
And don't forget, after the first time travel you're in a place where nearly everything is dead. The majority of the dark soul would be in one place by then. That's why you have to wait till the world is ending to get the dark soul or find some other way to get there.

Like an anon said in the last thread, they didn't end on a bad note - they ended on nothing. Absolutely nothing was resolved and no answers were given to anything but questions asked in its own dlc. They could have released the DLC as a standalone and it would have essentially made sense.

Obviously from Souls i wasn't expecting a fully wrapped up ending with everything explained - i wouldn't want that either, but it's like its own original, self encapsulated story - like a bad fanfiction

I'm finished it. This DLC is so shit i actually think AoA was better. They just gave the enemies more HP and did nothing to actually make it challenging. The whole DLC was exhausting since every boss fight was boring and dragged out because of retarded HP. The world design was fucking hideous as well. That whole swamp area is fucking disgusting and serves literally zero purpose. Shit weapons,shit armour,shit lore and shit enemies.

God,this was so dissapointing. Also,why the fuck isn't anyone even playing? I haven't been invaded yet and I see zero summon signs at the boss fights. God they pretty much took everything everyone hates and made a DLC. I want my money back.

BB's story is actually pretty clear, only the timeline is iffy in some very early point.

Definitely Sirris

>One was a wayfaring knight, on an endless, forbidden search. Only the Abyss granted closure, if not reunion with his beloved.

Alva or Gael? Probably Alva

>And so, she lived in fear. Of the dark, of the things that gnawed at her flesh. And yet! The Abyss hath yet to produce any such creature!

Irina, right?

>And so, despite his weighty armour, he lived in fear. Of a delicate thing, little more than a girl. Where fire resideth, shadows twist and shrivel. But in the Abyss, there are shadows none.

Just like Gael, this is one of the only bosses in the game you can't just tank with 30+ vig and a billion estus. It's a legitimately difficult boss and this is why shitters are calling it unfair after spending a whole game spamming 13 iframes rolls and healing up to 15 times when they fuck up against squishy base game bosses.

Midir has a wide variety of moves, all completely avoidable and telegraphed. It's completely fair and easily one of the best in the series. You just have to relearn timing and positioning, 2 things you probably forgot going through the rest of the game.

And turn off the lockon, it's never worked against huge enemies.

Whose fucking idea was it to make the entire first area a fucking linear CoD setpiece where you have to keep running and taking cover from infinitely respawning AC-130s with nothing but rehashed enemies along the way, complete with actual fucking dev messages constantly guiding by saying ''jump here, you won't take fall damage for some reason because we decided to break the game's rules for this shitty fucking setpiece''.
Seriously, remember in DaS1 in the chasm of the abyss, you fall through that illusory floor and you take no damage because there is some magic shit casted by Alvina, you see the magic effect on the ground and even your legs when you land. We went from that level of care and detail to LOL WE DEACTIVATED THE FALL DAMAGE FOR THIS SPECIFIC SECTION WITH NO EXPLANATION :^))))

Man I hope it picks up after this cause this first section might just be the single fucking worst piece of Souls content ever, specially considering it's the last Souls content ever in a fucking paid DLC

Darkmoons were always Gwyndolin's covenant, Velka was just in charge of cataloguing the sinners for Gwyndolin's squad to fuck up

Age of the Deep is literally the Age of Dark, and the Abyss is the Chaos version of the Deep. Think of the Deep as non-rampant Humanity.
>it comes from humans but it isn't the Dark Soul, it's "dregs"
Human Dregs are humanity sprites but watery, pic related

Primordial Serpents were jewing Lothric from behind the scenes, like they are behind EVERY OTHER ATTEMPT at people linking the Flame

>He went from totally trying to end the fire to usurping it
Had to do with the whole "letting the flame die doesn't solve anything because a new flame will spontaneously come into existence later" gimmick. Usurpation is "permanent" darkness.

>Who was the 3rd sister of the Sable Church
Lilianne, you see her in the Usurpation Cutscene, Sable Church was trying to usurp the flame and worshipped being Hollow. Not really much more to say about them.

>What happened to Gertrude
she dead, the corpse you find in the cage is hers

>What happened to Ornstein, Flann, and Gwynevere
not important, their roles in the story were fulfilled in their taking leave.

>We never found out about the Darkness beast of Astora
what ever made you think that it was important? It was a beast, it was killed, they made a ring out of it. End of story

I have 23 vig at the moment, and attempting to melee him often results in a literally, LITERALLY, instantaneous dash forward that has a giant collision box and does more than half my health in damage. Also, quit disguising lazy design decisions as challenge. Something being difficult because it's challenging and something being difficult because you have to compensate for poor design is different.
>>172471240
He's not particularly hard, just annoying. In his second phase he is constantly dashing and flying around. It's pretty easy to avoid but it becomes a war of attrition to keep running after him and landing one or two hits before he goes flying off again. The run to his boss room is more difficult.

the age of the deep isn't the age of dark. It's more of an entropic thing, an inevitable end to fire via the rising sea even if you keep linking the fire the sea will cover it eventually

The part that is never explained is why aldrich dreamt of the deep, what he wanted from it and what sulyvahn wanted out of it and how he was planning to use aldrich and the profaned flame

profaned flame is also never explained or gone into great depth. supposedly it was created by the shards of manus, but for what purpose and to what end and what it's true power is is still unknown

why the fuck is the framerate so awful? i just started the dlc and i cannot even get past the first area, it's bad.
i'm well aware that i have a poorfag computer, but this is far worse than what i'm used to. The rest of the game consistently runs at 40 and above.

Cut content reveals that there was a covenant devoted to Velka which was tasked with hunting down Blades of the Darkmoon. Because of this, it is implied that Velka and Gwyndolin were enemies.

Even if you don't want to base it off cut content, there was basically no explanation of her background as the Godess of Sin, and her links to the Sable Church (see clutch rings)

>Primordial Serpents were jewing Lothric from behind the scenes

Well they're not very behind the scenes with statues everywhere, only one of them ever wanted the fire linking, the other one is dead, and there is literally 0 grounds to that statement since there is no mention of them at all, just statues.

>Human Dregs are humanity sprites but watery
Great, no background on how it used to be a sacred place, that got taken over by monstrosities, how it uses the 'heaviest part of a human', how it differs from abyss, how it's sorceries are rooted etc

>Lilianne, you see her in the Usurpation Cutscene, Sable Church was trying to usurp the flame and worshipped being Hollow. Not really much more to say about them.

No confirmation that it's her, and nothing about how she literally communicated with gods and wrote a divine tome

>she dead, the corpse you find in the cage is hers

But where is proofs? The cage is open from both sides, there's a transformed Rosaria baby there too - who and what is Rosaria then, and why are the doors bent and smashed in? Why, if Gertrude is 'the heavenly daughter' does Rosaria drop a spell directly associated with Gwynevere?

>How it differs from the Abyss
Abyss is the chaos version of the Deep. This is evidenced by the similarities between the scaling properties of Deep/Fire and Dark (Abyssal)/Chaos weapons, the artificial nature of the Abyss as compared to the Deep, and the fact that the Ringed City reveals that Abyssal monsters that run around everywhere are insectoid, which hints that the invading monstrosities of the Deep are Abyssal in nature.

most of that can't be explained at all, but I'll do my best

the egg was somehow keeping the pygmies imprisoned or preventing time from collapsing or something

The pygmies still exist because they're immortal or something

apparently there were always multiple pygmies or they sort of formed a monarchy after a while

primordial serpent statues because the pymies worshipped them I guess?

dragon was just being used to keep the abyss at bay because now dragons can eat the dark or something

I think the painter wanted to make a special world that wouldn't rot so they needed the dark soul or something

Overall I think it goes like this maybe

Fillianore and the egg were somehow keeping the pygmies and the dark soul sealed away in a ring of fire and light like the dark sign locked up your humanity

the abyss was able to sense where the dark soul was and so it was consuming the ringed city to get at filianore and the dark soul but the dragon had been raised to hate the dark and burn/consume it to prevent anyone from harming filianore

Not him and I haven't follow you two's discussion, but I think all the other Serpents save for Frampt want dark, or at least they're not actively helping to prolong the Age of Fire. In DaS1 Kaathe mentions that Frampt "went mad and helped Gwyn resist the course of nature", plus his ending has multiple Serpents so I think it can be surmised that not resisting the course of nature is the supposed norm among them.

Considering there are statues of them all around the place I think it's safe to say that they were very prominent beings in one way or another to the original dwellers in the very least. They could also be the supposed "angels" as Lothric Archive statues have Serpents with wings. Would also explain the supposed civil war there, as Lothric family was nurturing a perfect heir for the Fire whereas the "angels" may have been against linking it.

that's an interesting theory - i largely subscribe to it, however the original point i was making was dissapointment that story arcs like that weren't more fleshed out essentialy. .

When you think about it - what parts of the lore in TRC actually link back to DaS3 content? (base game)

Also if the angels were against the fire linking, why is it said to be the 'scholar' who was the one who turned Lothric against it?

Get a sidearm that you're comfortable with, my personal favourite is Chaos Thrall Axe, but Ringed Knight Spear might take that spot away. Onyx Blade is fine too. Learn what combos and what doesn't, such as Black Flame Serpent into Vestiges, be ready to punish parries with black flames, etc.

As for stats, you're probably starving for points, I hope you're at least SL125.

How do you like my impression of Filianore?
>>
>>172472528
dumb faggot, let me explain these things to you brainlet

The deep is just the darkness that exists at the bottom of oceans. Of course it's related to the dark. That's why it was originally a sacred place, because it was just a deep darkness at the bottom of the sea where there was no light at all and it was very peaceful. But over the ages, sediments of soul dregs from the dead and dying in the world above sank down into the deep. Think about it. If the fire keeps linking for a million years and chosen undead keep killing people and lords of cinder and the cycle repeats itself forever, where does all the garbage and junk and dead souls go? It sinks to the bottom of the sea, to the lowest depths imaginable. It stews and rots there, the corruption building. It becomes infested with all sorts of ghastly creatures.

This is all because the world is not going through the intended age of dark to reset the world back to it's original state and start all over. Miyazaki said the painted world of ariendel was a view of the themes of the game on a smaller scale from a different perspective.

The painting is rotting because nobody has burnt it away to create a new world. It's full of insects and decay. That's what the deep is. Nobody has allowed an age of dark to happen in full and reset the world, so the world is rotting. If people keep linking the fire, eventually what'll happen is the sediment of soul dregs building up in the deep will be so great it will rise up like it is in the cathedral already and consume the entire world in corrupted dark waters. The first flame and everyone in the world will drown and the undead will be doomed to relive their own deaths for an eternity of darknesss

THAT is the deep anon


Are you literally fucking kidding me did you not read my comment? We know who created the first flame but not why or how they did it, or what significance or power it has. We know very little about it, for such a powerful and important object.

Don't get it twisted, big swords wasn't about fucking anime, it was about being a baby who wants 90% of fights to be a big slam, and the dude's in a crater, whether PvP or PvE. It's cowardice and lack of confidence. There's a difference between using skill with a big weapon and cheesing the game with a huge weapon.

There is no Deep without Soul Dregs, the Deep is literally a giant puddle of Humanity sitting at wherever the "lowest depths imaginable" happen to be (Ash Lake)? The corruption of the Deep stems from the Abyss, that's why they specifically call out Darkness insects and the like (which TRC explicitly shows to be Abyssal, regardless of any implications beforehand). Simply put, occasionally humanity that is Abyss-tainted sinks to join the rest of the Deep and thus the corruption spreads.

And I don't think that the Deep is responsible for the rotting of the world, as the IRL version of Rot is more poison-affiliated than darkness affiliated.

Just finished the DLC about an hour or so ago

I'm honestly not baiting when i say i really believe Dark Souls 2 was the better game

It had massive, MASSIVE flaws, but it really did try to do new things, and the DLC was probably the best Souls content (BB not counted)

DaS3 just feels so sterile. Every time i pick up an armour set or something it's just like 'oh hey - that was in the old game, remember guys? heh heh' There were no real 'wow' moments, and there isn't anything i can put my finger on where i think 'wow they really pushed the boat out there, tried to mix things up'

It's full of conveniences, i'll give it that - it makes sense, it's polished but it just has absolutely no heart. I realise thats a thin criticism since it's so unempirical but i know i'm not the only person who felt this way

The most 'wow cool' moment in the DLC was being carried over the city by the bat demons - which is literally a cut and paste from DaS1 - again, another 'heh *nudge nudge wink wink* remember Dark Souls 1?'

They likely don't have any proper consciousness and just repeat what they're told to (that Dark is totally cool) like a broken record + the fact that they're hungry.

Holy God in heaven that is literally what I was trying to tell you you dumb motherfucker, the Deep is what happens when you gather humanity and it doesn't go wild and start shitting all over the place. The Abyss is what happens when you gather humanity and it DOES go wild and start shitting all over the place. Occasionally Abyss leaks into the Deep and that causes problems.

26 endurance is always worth it. With favor +3, you'll have 134 stam at 24 end, 136 at 25, then jump up to 140 at 26. The next two levels afterwards go back to only adding two endurance, and the next two after that add three. I believe this pattern holds with the +2 ring as well.

It's not some mindless, directionless blight. It's a conscious rebellion against godhood. The abyss is infectious, contagious and inevitable because it's the truth.

The Deep was the purest for of the dark, gentle and peaceful, a place where you can find proper self reflection. However, instead of fixing things themselves, the people of the souls world did what they do best, ignore their problems and pass it on to something else, much like you do with curse and purging stone. That's where shit like human dregs come in, the shittiest, dirtiest parts of mankind left unresolved and simply cast out rather than gotten rid of, fuckloads of those later, and the Deep goes to shit, and the Dark becomes the abyss. All of the aldritch descriptions talk about the future in the terms Church of Deep doctrine would understand the events. The coming age of deep waves is the Abyss being unleashed and bubbling up and swallowing everything whole, like what's happening in the ring city. Most of the Dark Souls world and lore revolves around the idea that people don't like to face their problems and resort to escapism, scape-goating, and physically just passing the curs and shit to others, like what happened in the undead settlement

They are bugs of Darkness you fucking fool, they deal Dark damage and are born from the Dark, Irina even says this. Not only are they Dark insects, they are foreigners to the Deep, as the Deep Protection description states, which means that they aren't native to the Deep, they come from that one other Darkness entity that's mentioned in the series that spawns all sorts of horrible shit that devours and consumes ravenously.

The abyss isn't some great rebellion, its a manifestation of contempt and jealously for anything and anyone capable of generating light. It's the shitty parts of people, don't improve yourself, just throw a tantrum and demand that those that have reached higher ground give it all up and stoop to wallowing in filth like you.

fucking Karla makes mention of it, looking into your own inner darkness can spark self reflection or ruinous nostalgia.

I was hyped for Gael, but he went down on my 3rd try. It was kind of dissapointing.

Overall, I'd say the DLC was pretty good,
TOH > TRC > AotA > Iron = AoA > Ivory >Sunken

It had really good areas, some of them were quite beautiful.
The new weapons were a bit too ridiculous with their WA imo, but fun either way.
As for the bosses, I'd say

Demons: 7,5/10 - fun, somewhat hard, but not too much, cool idea with the demons switching up with their powered up phases. The demon prince was pretty fun as well.

Spear of the Church: From the boss fight perspactive it was bad, but from the covenant perspective it was really fun. Cool addition, but hardly a boss.

Darkeater Midir: 10/10. probably my favourite boss now. Hard, rewarding, very climatic, loved it, even though it took me like 15 tries.

Gael: 7/10, he was alright, but he should have been harder, I think. His moveset was pretty ridiculous, too.

I figured having multiple holders would mean a weaker effect from the Dark Soul. Sealing the kings away was a means to buy time and it was broken by none other than you. That's why there were Four Kings instead of only one. Having one holder most likely meant instant corruption and having strong desires to eat more souls like a enveloping dark.

No it's the end of the world period.

The big thing with DaS was being told by characters that without the fire the age of dark would come about. Some would believe that it meant humans get to do cool shit and some would believe the abyss would swallow everything whole and the world would be a literal eternal darkness swamp place.

DaS II to hammered home the cycles shit where neither choice matters becuase the world is doomed to repeat the cycle of age of fire then it turning to shit then age of dark and repeat.

DaS III said fuck that it's only ever been age of fire but every time they link it the flame gets shittier.

The DLC now basically confirms that the dark is no giant encroaching darkness. It's just shit humans could do that was a parallel of the fire and at the end (the literal end of time) neither dark no fire matters because it all fades to ash and we're left with an ash world similar enough to the old world with the trees and dragons.

The dark worshipers obsession with men remaining hollows is more in tune with how the old world was but even then all their shit like the abyss and dark and deep "dies" too.

All of this is really fucked though because souls is super schizo on how they want to present that shit and if anyone thinks From is playing 4d chess where you have to zoom out to see the big picture and this DLC isn't a result a them changing the story direction ten times they're a loon.

I either want to do a build around the Aquamarine Dagger, probably need to find an offhand weapon...maybe the moonlight so I have even more mixups.

I had to go do something before I could contribute so I hope the Velka vs Gwyndolin thing isn't done yet.
The end game never stated they were allies, Velka's "priests" absolve you of soon while Gwyndolin's Blades will hunt you for performing a sin, ie; murder, blasphemy attacking a goddess, even if she is an illusion, etc.
Also they do seem to have some similarity, Gwyndolin has a catalyst that scales off faith while Velka has a talisman that scales off intelligence. There's probably some symbolic stuff going on there that I can't fully decipher but I'll get to that in a second.
Velka's Rapier, said to be wielded by her pardoners, deals Occult(Dark) damage, which is kind of odd since, like other Velka stuff, it scales off Int despite Occult upgrade path dealing magic damage that scales with faith normally.
However, the Occult auxilery effect says the most to me, since that deals bonus damage to the Gods. Even the Dark Ember, required for this upgrade path, states Occult Weapons are designed to hunt the gods, and Velka's Gear is found in the painted world where it looks like the gods through things that scared them.
I think Velka was legit at odds with the gods, but like most Dark Souls lore this will never be expanded upon even though it's pretty obvious Gwyndolin and Velka seem to have a rivalry though strangely enough bestwaifu is the bad guy, playing the part of Judge and sending executioners after sinners while mysterious crow goddess is trying to absolve them of sin
I feel like it was a lost opportunity that Velka didn't have her own covenant with that Pardoner in the bell tower that directly opposed Darkmoons, I know a bunch of people would have loved an opportunity to invade Darkmoon Blades out of nowhere, though Personally I'd still be a Darkmoon just because.

For fuck's sake Mytha's dagger would've been perfect. At the very least it seems like we should've gotten the tracers and manikin sabre since they're cut content.

For as long as TRC took I was expecting a little more than what we got. I liked the fancy rings and the actual process of progressing through TRC but by and large the gear was disappointing, which is exactly the opposite of how I feel about AoA.

I'm also not crazy about old monk with adds.

There is no encroaching darkness.

Everyone went "oh no the abyss is gonna swallow the world like it did in new londo/oolicile/end of DaS in one end" and nothing comes of it. Everyone went "oh the untended graves are an age of dark" but it doesn't matter.

All the big spooks that come with anything related to dark do not matter and will fade away just like everything good with the age of fire faded away.

Dark was never going to replace fire and all the dudes who jacked off to the dark/abyss/depp/etc were just as blind as the dudes jacking off to the gods.

No, that's a pandora's box that can never be shut again, the world will never return to grey. First, fire is dominant and we get things like "spacetime" and "civilization," but then the flames fade like they always do and reality collapses into a big dark -- deep --void (which is meant to be gentle and soothing so long as the tumor that is the Abyss hasn't ruined it's naturally-serene nature) for a time and everything dies or hollows, until the Darkness starts fading and Fire once again takes form, and the universe resets.

Honestly I have no idea, there might be some symbolism about moon magic connecting him to Seath and the Covetous Serpent Rings states Serpents are an incomplete form of dragons, plus Yorshka seems to consider him an older brother.

"Hand it over. That thing, your dark soul. For my lady's painting."

We obviously don't have the dark soul, so I think this could mean one of two things.

Either he has gone mad with the dark soul and thinks we are a pygmy,
Or he wants us to kill him and take the blood of the dark soul to his lady for her painting.

Do you guys think Gael sacrificed himself by consuming the dark soul so he could bleed the pigment for the painting?

I really don't know how they could spell it out for you more.

The ringed city is very much the land of "WE LIKE THE DARK HERE" and in the end everything from the ringed city, to anor londo, to lothric is all gone in an endless ocean of ash. Out of everything the only thing that remains are the "immortal" pygmies in the end times.

If you proc bleed on a counter hit with a weapon that naturally has bleed then you'll get 50 extra damage. If you proc bleed with a bleed-infused weapon you get that 50 damage every time but you can't use rouge and you won't get any extra damage for bleed on a counter hit.

And the Deep isn't the bottom of the ocean because if it were, when the Deep "surfaced" in the Dreg Heap the whole place would be underwater, but it isn't.

Your point about Gnaw not being Abyssal because the insects in TRC aren't literally identical is retarded because it implies that only 1 type of monster is possible to spawn from the Abyss, which we know is false by simple virtue of there being multiple enemy types in Oolacile and also it's like saying that Chaos can only make one type of Demon which is stupid.

The deep is not a location where souls settle, it describes those very souls that are settling. The Deep is the mass of humanity that has been coalescing, not the location where they settled into.

What? That is one of the best ideas from had with the DLCs, there's so much less griding compared to DaS 1 and 2.

What if we start hvaing ringed souls dropped from ringed knights randomly and you need 50 of those to get ringed knight weapons? You'd like that, wouldn't you? The least RNG the better.

WEWWWWW now I know you're autism

Gnaw was literally made by someone who spent too long looking into the deep, try harder faggot

Also did you literally not notice the maggot infested corpses of the deep outside the cathedral and the strange maggot creatures in the water outside the cathedral?

The deep isn't rising and covering the world yet. In areas where it's seeping through the cracks, there is black deepwood growing. Which we see in both dreg heap and the cathedral.

TFW gael is what the ringed knights were like before they were sealed

no wonder gwyn was terrified of these people.

also, I'm pretty sure that the cripple hollow before the first ringed city bonfire, who has the same model as the pygmy kings, is the original furtive pygmy. He is the type to be easily missed and forgotten, after all; most people probably missed him, and he disappears after you beat gael.

what is this meant to prove? that you can demonstrate that grubs and insects exist in the deep in its' present state? how does that prove anything about how they got there? are you stupid?
>>
>>172483516
>>172483894

the abyss and the deep aren't even natural forces in the form we see them. Gael's already shown us that the dark soul, in its natural state, creates fire. A fucking terrifying screaming fire, but fire none-the-less. the pitch-black dark of humanity is a gwyn created abberation.

Gwyn had nothing to do with the creation of the Abyss, that fault lies solely with Man, thanks Oolacile. And yes, I am aware that TRC did experiments with driving humanity wild, but they kept it contained and its' application limited, it was Oolacile who really fucked up
>>
>>172483894
It also doesn't prove that the deep wasn't corrupted by some neckbeard like you wanking off to anime waifus into a sock

There is not a single mention of the abyss and the deep together. They are seperate things. Get over it and then end your fucking miserable sad life

>>172484093
You fucking literal niggershit, insects and grubs have never been associated with the abyss. Never. Not once. There are random talking locusts in the ringed city but they're completely different than the maggots and grubs of the deep.

Well you're the only person on the planet who can say that. You probably happened to find sweet spots for being summoned, occasionally while helping people through levels I'll see the same darkmoon over and over. A few times I've even seen the same guy pop up when a host got invaded more than once.
>>
>>172484420

"wild humanity" means something completely different to the original humans though. the dark soul for them wasn't an abyssal void, it was an abyssal flame, like the profaned flame that we use to craft dark weapons. ringed city knights, in their natural unsealed state, have flaming weapons.

Do you have autism? That's the one thing that we agree upon. The argument here is between the idea that the Deep == the surface upon which human dregs lie and that the Deep == the human dregs themselves

Also you type like an underageb& and your memes are lame. Stop posting.
>>
>>172484404

he tends to be easily forgotten

>>172484653
>>172483969

the cripple hollow isn't even listed as an NPC on the wiki pages.
>>
>>172484584
Acktshually, the flaming weapons are just fire, not a part of the Abyss that they wielded. They wielded both, simultaneously, Abyss and Fire. Also the dark void in the middle of their armor (which is the Abyss that their seal is trying and failing to contain) is pitch black like the Abyss should be. There's no reason to suspect that it was any different, the mage-smiths of TRC were just gud enough to not let the Abyss they were working with overwhelm them (though the Gods didn't trust this), and Oolacile wasn't.
>>
>>172484728
Do you have autism? You seem obsessed with the idea that the abyss caused the corruption in the deep despite there being absolutely nothing that proves this because you're a gay underedge transexual faggot who wants to suck gwyndolyn's cock and that's why you hate the deep

>>172485257
they're dark orbs that are still pitch black at their core, and the difference is most likely that the humanity of the Dark Soul isn't wild like the Abyss so you wouldn't see blackflame. It's just stronk.

he rambles about being your ally in finding the dark soul, as long as you disavow any allegiance with the gods.

he's an odd character, the kind of mentally unstable dialogue that is hard to paraphrase.

>>172485615

being dark at their core doesn't change the fact that they are a flame, a flame that gives light to the abyss. gwyn sealed the abyssal flame, which is why the age of dark is so terrible and soulless.
>>
>>172486509
The Abyss was literally always a flame, what he fuck are you talking about? You stil haven't explained why you feel that the Dark Soul == the Abyss, as opposed to the Abyss being something different. Why are you implying that Gael channels the Abyss, as opposed to a type of Darkness that isn't the Abyss, since those objectively exist? Does he turn into a pus of man in some 4th phase that I skipped?

LMAO m8 I have a STEM degree actually. The holiest of holy mathematics. Where I live nobody needs someone with just a fucking mathematics degree they don't need someone who can prove random abstract algebra theorems. Relevant skills mean much more than having a degree. Engineering is great to go to college for yes but if anon doesn't have the aptitude for it it is a waste of money. Community college anon is on the right track though. Alternatively he could join the military for a few years and reap the benefits.

Alright I finally met up with the meme dragon for round 2 (I sniped him with a Greatbow for the cliff part). At Soul Level 40, what do you think the best weapon capable of damaging him is? Raw ASS?

And yet! The Abyss hath yet to produce any such creature!

And so, despite his weighty armour, he lived in fear. Of a delicate thing, little more than a girl.
Where fire resideth, shadows twist and shrivel. But in the Abyss, there are shadows none.
Fear not, the dark, my friend.

Of all the Fingers, he alone was embraced by the Abyss.
For he was human, and ne'er a grub.
Fear not, the dark, my friend.
