if I came back sooner I might have tried to put together an event but I came back too late and it's too late now
especially since I like to poll all the shit like when to do it, specific rules & dates for several days so everyone gets a chance to vote & there's as little complaining as possible

I suggested turning into a themed event similar to butchers vs pigs (it's nobles vs peasants now) instead of a tourney, but apparently they don't want that.

Supposedly nobles have a huge advantage in weapon selection as well, so it'll most likely be rather imbalanced, but hey what can you do

Fromsoft know their shit, instead of hiring videogame voice actors they hire British theatre performers to voice their game in English. That's why Souls has the best English voice acting in all of videogames, despite being written and produced by the Japanese.

So was Solaire just some guy in the end, anyway? I used to think he was the "Faithful First Knight" described on Sacred Oath, but then reading Leo Ring mentioned Ornstein was the first knight and not the dragonslayer also mentioned. Is the second dragonslayer some unknown character? Is it supposed to be perosn who was once inside Dragonslayer Armour? I doubt Solaire was a Dragonslayer at any point, so does that leave him as just some random happy undead hobo searching for his sun after all?

COME ONE COME ALL BECAUSE THERE'S A TOURNEY ON THE HORIZON

NOBLES VERSUS PEASANTS: /dsg/ showdown

Participants will be matched up with others who sign-up and fight for the claim to be /dsg/'s champion on May 19th, 5pm PST. The winner and runner-ups will receive prizes including Steam games and being better than everyone else who fought.

Sign-up sheet:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScKzpuOdtJXeAb-4EoXlKN0cd9uDXNtzfVZmsIZgUNcFe3r7g/viewform?usp=sf_link

For the sake of organization either your Steam ID or a Discord ID will be needed to sign-up. If using only one Steam IDs will be organized via that channel and Discord users can join the accompanying server in the link above to ensure we don't have last minute drop-outs with no explanation.

RULES:
-There will be two teams: Peasantry and Nobility. Once you’ve made the choice you can’t go back. Both teams have a certain list of approved weapons you can check on the sign-up sheet. Not following the rules results in a disqualification (and public shaming)
-Maximum Soul Level of 80 allowed. Someone with CE open will be monitoring all players to make sure this rule and others aren't broken.
-The starting location will be High Wall, followed by Undead Settlement and ending at Lothric Castle.
-Fights are best of 3
-Each fight is 2 minutes long, the one with the most % health left at the end will win if both are alive.
-Only two Ashen Estus sips per fight, any more and your win will not count, initiating a rematch. Do this twice and you are disqualified
-All Regen items and spells are banned to disincentive passive shittery. This includes Sun Princess Ring, spells like Bountiful Sunlight, and anything infused with Blessed.
-Normal FC rules still apply such as no healing items. Fight rotation will be determined once brackets are set.
-Requirements to join: Discord and/or Steam ID for organization purposes.
If people don't respond a week prior to the tournament and they've signed up, they're disqualified

General quality of Jap voice actors seems to be high, but that's probably just due to the contrast of so much English voice work being fucking shocking. I honestly don't know how they expect to be paid for some of the stuff you hear on Anime dubs or videogame voices. The sooner the American actor's guild collapses, the sooner publishers start realizing they need to stop paying these hacks and hire people who do genuinely good work, the better for all involved.

The whole dub/sub argument is stupid, the problem with standard English dubs isn't that they're in English, it's that they just bad.

>irithyll rapier being average
sure, you'll see with lower vigor that being frozen in 3 really hard to dodge stabs is gonna be really fucking fun, retard. Also Irithyll rapier has the same range as crow quills.

Claymore shits all over Executioner's and you only need to go 27str to get max damage. Executioners can't be infused which means it needs quality to have good damage. Falchion has more AR than Sabre but also has the SHORTEST range in the class, SHORTER THAN THE FUCKING SCIMITAR, so it gets outclassed easily by Sabre that still has Scimitar range.
>>
>>175980273
start over
>>
>>175979127
From what I recall reading the ideas are written out in Japanese and then translated for the voicework. They also probably give the actors a lot of creative freedom with it.
Remember though that Miyazaki has talked about the inspiration for his ideas coming from reading old English fiction, in English, like King Arthur. The themes and language used in Souls fit the period of literature he apparently has an interest in, so it wouldn't be surprising if he OKs the voice work based on an understanding of that kind of Olde English.

Irithyll rapier vs sword? Which one do you guys consider the best? Rapier has a higher damage for some reason, but the sword beats it in style by 1 million points.
>>

IM FUCKING DYING

I CAN'T HANDLE BEING LONELY, FUCK.
>>
>>175980926

The Sword is far better and actually a great weapon for PvE. It has the same range as the Dark Sword and despite having less AR its moveset allows it to make use of its natural Frost buildup far better while having thrust R2s and Stance WA. Irithyll meanwhile is one of the shortest rapiers and the rest of its moveset is kind of mediocre, also it requires a quality build still while other rapiers now outdamage it when pure Dex.

>>175981436

It's good if you're seeking to put Frost on someone and is a perfectly good weapon on it's own, but you're right in that there is no reason not to use more damaging weapons like LKS or the Ringed Knight SS.

>>175981341

Use Limit (3000) x 8/Time (seconds) for bitrate so your Webms won't cut off.

That would be kind of cool. Replace the final approach to the Avelyn with a horrible gauntlet of Black Knights, Wheel Skeletons, sparse cover, and the Carthus Sandworm sweeping lightning across the bridges at inopportune moments.

Disabling the Avelyn should be the brute force path of most resistance way of going through the level.

That group is really whacky most of the time. At least one of them will always fall into the chasm.

>>175984636
I think it's something to do with audio cues. Different armour sets make different amounts of noise, and that changes when you'll aggro things with sound. You can also alert stuff with combat noises. When a mob ends up in some random position I just assume you somehow triggered it at an unusual time and it walked itself somewhere trying to reach you.

I'm bursting with excitement when I'm thinking up new characters and creating backstories for them, what equipment I want them to use and that sort of thing.

And honestly I like making new characters for DS3 but the thing is that Lothric High Wall and CoA are fun, but Road of Sacrifices is so incredibly fucking dull part of the game and there are no sequence breaks for it. Bloodborne kept things interesting by the different events that influenced stuff and there was a greater wealth of optional stuff you could do almost in any order after you killed Gascan and Memelia.

the best part is you could just use spook to jump right to the door which leads to the elevator out of that place but to get moundmakers you have to get to the part where you would jump down and then get teleported instead and then walk all the way back there to do it and then if you want to kill greatwood you have to go past the dogs and fat bitch and go through the sewer which is another detour.

Duels in das3 are so fucking trash. You can never use the setup you're used to because the holy trinity of weapons can't be countered by most of them and unless you abide to the fucking meta all you can do is cry.

i want to use friede's great scythe but nope, it's fucking trash in invasions (lel 3 hours to hit someone while two phantoms gangbang you) and it's virtually impossible to win against hyper armor because it's just so fucking slow.
not to mention the retarded inconsistencies in which the game allows you to combo sometimes and doesn't allow you to combo in the same situation afterwards, it's such a fucking mess.

you can still talk to him before teleporting without alt+f4

Avelyn and Arbalest compete for the top spot. Arbalest is best for whiff punishing with heavy bolts and Avelyn is best for covering a huge area with explosive bolts and catching rolls.

Arbalest is heavier, and only does physical damage. Knight has inherent lightning damage.

Invasions in ds3 are lame. Just invaded into a gank squad and these guys literally had a character named heal slut as the designated healer.

does using lightning bolts close the damage gap a bit or does it suffer too much from the split damage?

I don't know what you were expecting

I'd argue they're even better than the physical damage, because you get substantial chip damage if they try to block it.

don't invade to honorably duel my man.
99% of the time you're invading into a 2 man squad.
They are 2 because most likely the host is bad at the game. What the guy is thinking is: "fuck this guy I just want to progress through this game for the first time and this asshole wants to come kill me"
The gank squad will not show mercy.
The correct way to invade is hide behind enemies and shoot arrows/spells to hinder his progress even more. Heal, run away and punish him for making the game easy mode. If he seeds, clump up the enemies and send them all his way.

honorobu duels are at pontif porch

I've had several different reactions. Lots of pointing down, sometimes hate mail, sometimes clapping. I tend to always cast it at the start regardless of whether or not the opponent has a catalyst that I can see. The best use I've found for it is when people try and run away to heal. Not happening.

I liked Sully mainly because he takes a huge dump on the way people dodge in Dark Souls. The series constantly gives you enemies with very coherent attack patterns: fast attacks are followed by other fast attacks and slow attacks are heavily telegraphed and either singular or followed up by another heavy telegraphed attack, especially when said enemies use any sort of weapon.

Sully has none of that shit. He'll easily start with a slow, telegraphed attack with the dark sword and immediately follow up with a fast attack with the flaming sword, then bait you into throwing an attack just so that he can uppercut your sorry ass. He also has stamina and agressiviness that are only rivaled by Gundy. I like bosses that make me re-evaluate my game plan, and Sully did exactly that.

His second phase is considerably less chalenging but it makes up for it by being really cool from a concept and aesthetic viewpoint.

So what's best when maxed out, in terms of great swords for a quality build? I think it's either the BKS or the HSGS. One the one hand, the BKS does more damage, but has no thrust and a situational WA. On the other hand, the HSGS is good all round, but does less damage.

Okay, so whoever designed Magic Shield in DaS3 apparently had no fucking idea what they were doing.

I did five different tests with how much stamina damage is dealt with and without the buff, and the numbers jump all over the place. A small wooden shield with 37 stability jumps up to 57 stability when blocking the same attack, while a small parry shield with 47 stability somehow jumps up to 61 stability when buffed. Comparatively, that's a 15% reduction in stamina damage taken and 26% less stamina damage taken, respectively.

And then when taking a medium shield with 46 stability, apparently it has two different buffed stability values depending on what kind of attack it's blocking, either going up to 59 or 56 stability. So somehow it's 24% more efficient at blocking horizontal attacks but only 19% more efficient at blocking charged vertical attacks.

No big surprise, whatever numbers kekxtra has on their page are bullshit, but it's also not entirely their fault. I'm pretty sure From don't make attacks do random amounts of stamina damage, since that would be as stupid as making them do random amounts of normal damage. If that's the case, then I have no real idea what's going on.
>>
So what's best when maxed out, in terms of great swords for a quality build? I think it's either the BKS or the HSGS. One the one hand, the BKS does more damage, but has no thrust and a situational WA. On the other hand, the HSGS is good all round, but does less damage

30-35 is just an acceptable buffer zone since summoning is on a range.

weapons that only go up to +5 count as double, so a +2 reads as +4 to the game.

Is there a reason you get so little souls co-oping Friede? I get like 18k while I get over 40k for co-oping Twin Princes. That makes no sense considering how much more involved the Friede fight is.

Even without DSCM it basis your multiplayer server on your steam download region, which can be incredibly small.

>>176003702
because Friede should be done before Grand Archives
>>
>>176003469
Pretty sure it isn't, a 57 stability medium shield goes up to 68 when buffed, which is more than the 37 stability shield mentioned above.

Who knows, maybe the amount of damage blocked factors into it (only one of those was a 100% physical block shield, and that was the one that had different stability values for two different attacks), but that sounds overly complicated. For all I know there may be some RNG involved, or there's something wrong with my testing method. Not sure if Collector's Edition lets you read the raw stamina values of your character, but that might help more than taking a screenshot right after blocking an attack and counting pixels in Photoshop.

To me and I'm sure a lot others, Dks3 is a rusher product and with that rushed mindset comes the lack of love for the project. So instead of a Londor time travel Episode , we got the old concepts plus wack shit up to +9 type of dlc. After thoughts mixed in with a subtle eh games over, we tried.

His lore is literally the easiest to understand in the whole series, what the fuck,

I really don't understand why people expected From to make a DLC explaining shit when the world building in the series is made ambiguous on purpose.

Hell, TRC did a pretty good job in clearing some things up, especially when it comes to the relationship between the Ancient Lords and the first humans, the Dark/Abyss and the Dark Soul itself.
>>
So I'm ready to play Dark Souls 3 since all the DLC is out. Is magic still asscheeks because dexfags keep crying or did From make it viable again?
>>
Why do people say Deacons are a bad boss? Just because they're easy doesn't make them bad. They're presented really well, have a great soundtrack, and can actually be pretty challenging if you're on an Int build since they have a ton of magic resistance.
>>
>>176007061
The thing about Dark Souls 3 (please fuck off tripfag, I'm not about to start glorifying 2 for 3's failures) is that there's not very much to explain. Pretty much everything you can cite as being unexplained was implemented without a great deal of care beyond its aesthetic value. Angels, Londor, Lothric Civil War, it doesn't matter. None of it matters and no one cares about. There's precious little in the game to actually enjoy.

Pull out your curse sword and one-shot them all.

Barring that, block all of them at the start of an invasion, and then use mobs to whittle them down. Once the passworded buttbuddies are gone, slow-walk towards the host and cut him down, then Point Down.

No, not really. Aside from the Profaned capital, I don't give a shit about any of those. The DLC closed the loop on the Souls series with its ending by implying the creation of a new world outside of the same old cycle (and thus breaking the cycle). That's a satisfactory conclusion IMO.

I imagine it'd be a lot like that.

In the case of Dark Souls, I don't mean snuffing out the flame is the tragedy, I mean the perpetuation of the Fire Linking cycle has finally come to a close, so the Dreg Heap can finally break down and over the years, things will begin to move into their natural flow again.

New players literally cannot kill you if you twink hard enough. You have 7 full heals and they deal 5% of your hp per hit. Meanwhile they have access to 7 shitty 1/4 heals.

You can also poison people with wonky hitboxes that hit after they roll so it's always easy to poison someone. Sure they can run away from you but they're just exposing themselves to more danger while you can safely approach them with a cat ring and stalk them with obscuring ring and reapply poison. And since it's the first area, there's literally nothing they can do about it.

okay, /dsg/ I've never played a magic focused build. Not a huge fan of spells/casting. but would like to have a magic infused/buffed weapon run. So I guess a have a few questions.

A. sorcerer is probably my best starting class?

B. should I go for Moonlight greatsword?

C. if I'm focused on more melee, offensive type play, should I really worry about spells?

ok, that's it. more interested in PVE for this build/run. Not too concerned with the PVP aspect.

Thanks friends!

The Astral Clockface depicts the general turn of events for a society that comes into contact with the old blood and/or seeks communion with the gods. I forget precisely which comes first, but it all inevitably returns to the Scourge of the Beast befalling that society in question and that civilization being subsequently overrun and destroyed by it, but not before, at the very least, producing at least one form of ascension. Then, the events repeat themselves elsewhere.

Mergo is the stillborn child of Yharnam, the Pthumerian Queen. Something went wrong with Mergo's birth, but it was maintained by the Nightmare and kept from dying. The Mensis group, in seeking to commune with a Great One, conducted a ritual in which they were granted audience with Mergo.

Early game sorceries are pretty weak. If you are pretty good and have some patience it'll work, but I would recommend starting off with something like the Knight so you can carry yourself through the early game on melee.

For pve it doesn't really matter that much. It's probably not worth the hassle of rushing Oceiros unless you just really want it. You can just infuse a basic weapon and crush pve no problem.

Yep, once you've used a circlet and negated your penalty, just check the grave you rose out of at the start of the game, a new one will show up sooner or later.

Sarcasm intended, but actually its damage isn't bad for being +5 with 15INT. Crystal infusion for it was buffed recently, and if you're doing a Critical they actually hit harder when infused with split damage.

The crit multiplies both damage values, and then the high multiplied values are checked against defence. Since the end values are so high, defence has minimal impact on criticals, so the higher AR on split infusions actually gives you bigger crits. Buffing a physical weapon is weaker because the buff damage isn't multiplied.

it's much simpler than you think
flat defense always reduces the same amount of a damage type
if you have split damage this flat defense applies multiple times

if you have two weapons which deal sort of the same amount of damage, one pure phys, one split, the split will deal more damage on the critical, because it has higher AR

unless there's actually some weird shit going on in the background, which I doubt

>>176012057
>Oh, hello. How do you do. I am Anri of Astora. Unkindled, like you.

actually, you can easily test this

then get a pure phys one with the exact same phys AR & buff it, then test ripostes

>just beat ds3 for the first time
>made a blogpost about it
holy guacamole the only boss i died more than twice to was the ocelot dude who would spend the entire time rampaging around the arena and I wouldn't get many hits in.
way too many bonfires and most of the shortcuts were fucking useless. level design in general seemed way too stretched out, the cathedral place and the archive place were good, since you were constantly looping back to a bonfire but the other ones would just plop down a bonfire every hundred yards or so.
upgrades seemed weird too, you get a shitload of shards and can upgrade a whole bunch of things to +3, then there was a long delay of just getting shards when all of a sudden everything became large shards and you could immediately +6 your weapon, then a long delay and right at the end you get a bunch of chunks.
way too many references to past games though, i'm playing a new game, i don't want to see the same shit from old games again, i want to see new things.

overall 6.5/10 a full 1 point less than dark souls 2

didn't play the dlc since it wasn't on sale and i am a jew, maybe that can wow me. I don't even want to do ng+ unlike the other games.
looking at the achievemnts i have 8 hidden ones so I imagine I missed an area or two but I honestly don't even feel like looking for them, it's probably just more copy pasta bosses from old games

>>
>>176012478
Defense isn't actually flat, and there's loads of weird shit going on in the background. It does work somewhat like it were flat though, so you can assume that for basic examples.
>>176012571
With the exact same AR, the split weapon will still deal less damage on a critical. The point is that the difference will be tiny in relation to the overall crit damage. Crit damage is so much higher than player defence values that the impact of defence is minimal, which is why the higher AR on split weapons is more important.

Easy numbers example, pretend defence is flat and your character has 100 Physical / 100 Magic defences.

Mailbreaker________(200AR Phys)____________R1:____200AR minus 100Def___=________100dmg
Crystal Mailbreaker__(140AR Phys 140AR Mag)_R1:____140AR minus 100Def x2 = 40+40 = 80dmg

Now imagine a Riposte is 4x the damage, which is about right.

Mailbreaker_________(200AR Phys x4 = 800AR)____800AR minus 100Def = ___________700dmg Riposte
Crystal Mailbreaker__ (140AR x4 = 560AR) x2______560AR minus 100Def = 460dmg x2 = 920dmg Riposte

The more you multiply the damage, the less important the split defence becomes relative to the AR difference.

no I meant

have a weapon that's
say 250 physical & 200 magical
then get the same weapon with a different infusion & upgrade level so it's only 250 physical, and buff it for 200 magical using a magic weapon buff

then riposte with each to see if there's a difference between split infusion or just buff, which I don't think there is

Why don't they make weapons with split AR only take a portion of both defenses instead of all of them?
Like if you have a fire longsword that does 100 phys and 150 fire, and you whack something with 80 phys and 60 fire defense it does this.

>100:150 is 2:3, or 40% physical, 60% fire AR

Fucking dammit, we got pretty close that time. That instant charge gives me conniptions. Zapmore seems to be working pretty well though, I'm fairly confident we'll get him next time or the one after.

I dunno, the wyvern just kinda died on its own for me
I think it fell off or something

wow i just got another 600k souls somehow from my last few invasions. it almost feels like cheating
>>
>>176013510
If some asswad is going to summon passworded buttbuddies to carry him through the game, then you're not the one who's cheating.

why not just let you respec as many times as you want as long as you have tongues? I guess it's better than DS1 but fuck

It's extremely obvious that weapon buffs aren't multiplied on criticals if you've played with this stuff at all. I'll do you a webm anyway though since it'll resolve the topic.
>>
>>176014146
Why crop the weapons out at the end?
>>
>>176015913
I'm zooming on the numbers so you can see them in a shitty webm. The camera zooms in because it clips inside the lamp. Just go try it yourself, it takes 5 seconds to figure out how this works and I don't really care if you don't want to believe me.

could anyone tell me how to copy a character to a different saveslot? I've got the table
