Turning on infinite health =/= changing a weapon entirely so that it looks and acts entirely different to how it should

Your health is client-side, while weapon data (model, moveset) is server-side. WAs are visible, but only that.

Okay, people from the last thread asked me for webms about Old Moonlight and Heysel Pick. Here there's one... ignore my whiffs.

https://my.mixtape.moe/wdrbsn.webm

Had to host it there because it was too big for 4chan and I don't know how to make the size smaller without turning it into a webm for ants, it was my first webm so be kind.

No, it's literally just which corpse vanishes first. In both those WebMs his death animation takes longer, so even if both die at the same time he technically isn't "dead" until both knees hit the ground and the disappearing animation begins.

No really, you're right! weapon altering doesn't do anything in multiplayer!

>>176243063
what reason do you have to believe it's any different?
How would adding a quickstep WA to a greataxe not work in multiplayer?
Do you really think you'd just completely desync?

you can still alter spells as well, I've seen a webm of someone making a tail of crystal soul spears.

I'm the same guy tho
>>
>>176243078

Yes, you could do the R1>SGS combo before the DLC with Sage Ring+2 and since Old Moonlight has the same cast animation it works as well. Old Moonlight does slightly more damage on the full combo due to the projectile.

>>
>>176243254

Not the guy you're talking to but from what I understand you can alter movesets in 3 but regular moveset changes won't be visibly changed on other players end unless they have the same script active. Now WA changes are visible to all other players even without CE likely because they intended it as a mechanic before scrapping it.

Yes, and it also hits twice, which is useful when you go against someone with Tears.

It does about 700 damage on average, and you get a chance at a roll catch at the end.

I like hexes more than spamming soulmass, and they're still decent even if you don't have double scaling.

>what reason do you have to believe it's any different?
People who have more knowledge than I do have tested it, and there's also the fact that DaS2 has an entirely different engine than DaS1/3. Some things are bound to work differently even if we didn't know the full extent of it.
>How would adding a quickstep WA to a greataxe not work in multiplayer?
The mod itself actually changes a dagger into a greataxe, so they'd see me running around with a dagger while I would be running around with a greataxe.
>Do you really think you'd just completely desync?
It wouldn't desync entirely, but it would be obvious something is wrong.
>you can still alter spells as well, I've seen a webm of someone making a tail of crystal soul spears.
That's because casting animations are one of the few things than can be changed.

>>176243663
Also forgot to mention that a lot of WAs don't work on certain movesets. Like the Ringed Knight Straight Sword's Stance WA, it can only be used on straight swords, and Gael's GS WA can only be used on Greatswords, etc. since the values are tied to the moveset value and will result in something else entirely.

Typically, whenever someone raises their arm with a sword in hand and then begins to bring it forward to slash with it, they just swing the sword instead of holding awkwardly above their heads mid-swing

It's like those classic bully characters who threaten to punch you by raising their fist and jerking it forward a little. You never know just *when* they're finally gonna attack you. You're either too ready for it (which you'll get hit for when they catch your roll), not ready enough (which you'll get hit for as you didn't react to it), or you try and hit them first (which you'll probably get hit for when they decide to use the version of the animation that isn't delayed) or you just run away (which you'll get hit for when they decide to continue into a combo that has them basically sliding around after you as though they're on skates).

foolish warrior, it has different parry timings when you parry from the guard stance
it was designed to have two different parry timings. the shield is the stance where that parry is quicker to come out.

My enjoyment of DS3 increased a lot when I started playing it DeS-style(i.e only level start bonfire and boss bonfires are allowed) and started skipping the shit in levels I don't need(i.e I can skip Cornyx and Irina if I'm not doing Pyro or Faith) because the most tedious shit in Dark Souls 3 earlygame comes from trying to literally EVERYTHING in Undead Settlement / Road of Sacrileges instead of just getting what you need and then getting the fuck out.

We have very different definitions on best. DS2 dragonfags were lead by that game's anime otaku equivalent and while he is probably the best representation for the players who join up the covenant, it was atmosphere wise not even in the same league as joing the dragonbros in one.

1 being super "brebare 2 dye :DD" hard is a meme, but literally noone here ever says that 1 is easier than 3

Why the fuck are you using a reinforced club anyway? Are you trying to play through as an SL1? And you could have summoned lautrec if you hadn't already gone to anor londo, I figure if you seriously had an easier time with biggie smalls it's probably because you summoned Solaire anyway. And with fully upgraded weapons you should kill him in like three or four hits. You can also do shit like throw firebombs over the fog.

Use healing miracles like Projected Heal and Bountiful Sunlight, also Lightning Arrow for ranged punishes and finishers.

It has a few really cool and fun things (powerstancing, full movesets on offhand so dual-wielding was viable even without powerstancing, blood pools, incredibly varied weapon and armor selection) that was hampered by a lot of really unfortunate design decisions (too slow, clunky general movement, floaty animations, Soul Memory, enemies that need to be farmed for their items eventually not respawning, items needing to be farmed through multiple NG runs, bonfire ascetics bumping areas up a NG level because of NG item exclusivity and enemies despawning, iframes being tied to it's own stat as well as carry weight, most bosses are just big people with a fancy set of armor and ornate weapon that have nothing else really interesting about them (with a few exceptions), the DLC being mandatory since it's the only part of the game that isn't blatantly rushed (and even then), and of course weapons breaking after killing 6 normal enemies forcing you to spend more souls to upgrade more weapons if you want to keep using your favorite weapon for any extended period of time)

tl;dr it could have been good but it just isn't

>>176262519
Affinity has a slow cast time but once you get it going you can recast it as the orbs go off and rush people down with it which is quite nice. Rushing people is the key part because otherwise it's pretty easy to roll, and it's slow

Soulmass is super fast and spammable so you can turn your back to them and turn around randomly and keep them away from you that way... the travel speed is really fast so you can cheese people that way.I think it's better, but I don't like the playstyle, so I stick with Affinity.

As for PvE, I don't know.

>use the fucking ring
First off, that's a hideously clumsy patch that really doesn't change the fact that the system is moronic.

Second, I normally play souls games via experimentation. Upgrade a ton of weapons to find out what I like, buy everything, etcetera.

Now I have to either beeline a specific build, and then put on a castration ring to never get souls again, or find myself placed out of multiplayer.

It's such a huge bummer. Especially since I'm having a lot of fun otherwise.

a fair few people did when it had the swag combo. actually, it was like an inverse dark sword in that if i saw a guy with a BKGS i got a little nervous because i figured he was probably pretty good (and could kill me from a single R1).

apparently it has the same WA as FUGS, with block frames and everything. but i'd say the R2 without the combo is worse than having a thrust. similar damage and lighter.

i guess i'm undecided on it, but prefer halberds in general.

It's all about Str weapons, PUGS and Lightning Arrow now, friend. Dex has been dumpstered, 2kat hasn't been meta for ages.

It does a shitload of damage, but the removal of the R1R2 combo means that shitters can't just win duels by landing a single R1 at point-blank range anymore.

The rats in Doors of Pharros can be farmed for Lockstones, but in general there aren't all that many necessary Lockstones, and some will actually negatively impact you despite their intended positive impact (for instance, the one in No-man's Wharf will shutter all of the Dark Stalkers, but will also light up the entire area so that the Varangian archers on the cliffsides can snipe you while you're down on the docks).

I never bothered farming Lockstones, and I never ran out of them either. I only used them in absolutely necessary places such as hidden chests or locked pathways, and still had spares by the end of my run.

>>
>>176270071
On release it was fucking useless, but since then

A) poise investment is now actually required for certain weapons to swing through certain attacks without flinching
B) lots of heavy armor has been made lighter, so the weight/absorption ratios aren't as terrible as they once were

Though on the contrary, the penalty on the prisoner's chain has been made a lot less detrimental, so you'll get 5 vit from that anyway. Plus lots of DLC weapons have fancy weaponarts that can swing through heavy blows even if your character has virtually no poise at all.

You don't always want to level it, but you won't have people saying "haha what a retard" for doing so anymore.
>>
>>176269927
You might want to hold off on summoning Gael, it's making her obscenely tanky.
>>
>>176270071
Only once you've soft-capped Vigor and Endurance, and hit 66 Str. You don't need armor on a Dex build (which are worthless anyways), and less so on casters.

Armor is good for poise, and nothing else (and worthless unless you're using a great weapon). But given how PChain is worth it now, you can invest in heavy armor more easily.

I'm not going to waste five points. I might swap out one of my rings, however, to meet the 15 requirement. I've messed with that suggestion before.

If it were me, since you seem to be primarily using a greatsword and not an ultra, I'd drop 5 points out of endurance. I only have 28 endurance on one of my characters that uses the astora greatsword and with the ring of favor and chloranthy, and I'm never really hungry for more stamina. With something smaller like a claymore I'm sure you can swing plenty. Plus with your current vit, you can swap the pyro flame with the saint tree bellvine without going over 70.

You can cast things like replenishment with tools that you don't meet the reqs for, hence why people casting magic shield typically just use the crystal chime to save weight.

>>176273972
You don't need to meet the requirements. No matter what, if you cast blessed weapon it always does the same thing regardless of stats or spellbuff, so if blessed weapon is your only spell, the bellvine is your best bet because it boosts casting speed. It's not that big of a deal, but it could make a difference in some situations.

If you intend to actually make use of gentle prayer though, then you're right, priest's would be better.

Is the casting speed truly worth it? I feel like it's better to have the option to restore health with FP, without Estus. I did some testing with cast speed and I don't really see much difference.

>>176274479
Like I said, if you want to actually use gentle prayer, then it's probably not worth it. I personally use the bellvine because I switch to a grass crest shield to put on my back after I buff with blessed weapon, so there's no reason for me to not take the casting speed over the gentle prayer.

>>176274479
I think it has literally no effect on buffs aside from bountiful sunlight, which uses a heal animation. And even if I'm wrong about that, it looks like you have 40 dex anyway; max cast speed is 50, and the bellvine adds 40, so it'd still be kinda overkill.

Checked the wiki, the casting speed is based on "virtual" dexterity, which is why I don't need to use this one since my actual dexterity is 40, and therefore really good for cast speed.

I hate how they phrase it like that

It's easier to just say that max cast speed is 50, and that cast speed = dex plus whatever bonuses you've got (40 for holding a branch/vine or wearing sage+2, 35 for +1, 30 for +0)

I think I will drop five Endurance for five Faith. I only lose 2 defense and 16 Stamina, which puts me at 162 Stamina, which is just two more Stamina than if I had that Endurance and didn't use the Ring of Favor +3, so I think that's fine. I may have to be slightly more careful about my Stamina use, but not very much more. I think the damage gains and slight regen as well as unique effect against undead will be well worth it. I'll just have to start carrying charcoal pine resin to be safe against those things like maggots and the like.

I think some people have found decent success at 30/30, but that still requires 32 levels worth of investment on top of your base level, and that's if you decide to fuck Att and Vig.

Pyro is good because you get access to all your best spells by the time you get out of Carthus, whereas sorcerers and clerics have to wait until at least Lothric Castle.

Is the damage taken from the clutch worth the boost? My spells ATM are fireball, great combustion, and that flamethrower one, though I don't see use in that since enemies tend to run at me right through the flame... the jumping ghru tend to just dodge after my first fireball.

I'm just doing it cause I'm bored, not really to challenge myself. It's always fun to see tarkus against the golem, so...
If it makes you feel better that's the first summon I actually use to beat a boss. I tried summoning solaired for gaping dragon but he died so I did it solo.

>Is the damage taken from the clutch worth the boost?

in pve? fuck yes it's 15% damage that stacks with your other rings multiplicatively.

in pvp? fuck no. i heard it gives you half damage bonus and double damage penalty.

Coming back for the dlc since clearing the game 2 weeks after release, they've done a fuck load of patches.

How would one go about a dex build? Sharp infusion? Thinking lothric straight sword
>>
>>176280847
Yeah fair enough. I guess gaping dragon & iron golem are so easy that it doesn't make much of a difference whether you summon or not

players. fume is supposedly one of the best performing bosses in terms of his k/d ratio. or at least was during ds2.
>>
>>176280908
i didn't say pontiff killed a lot of people, i said he FUCKED UP and entire religious order and a whole gigantic city and had a hand in almost everything in ds3

answer my question: who did fume kill?
>>
>>176281060
I can attest to that. I found every boss in DS2 pretty easy, but fume completely fucked me up. I must've died like 30 times at least. No idea why he gave me so much trouble

yeah, if anything Gaping dragon at least gets double health cause solaire ended up dying without dealing much damage at all.
I'm also trying to make this SL1 character have the exact same gear as my DS3 SL1 character.

Sharp infusions are good, yeah. Lothric Knight Sword is a great weapon and solid pick but also boring as hell.

Straight swords are shit in pvp, why bother
>>
Have a question about Dorkmooning
>1. Do you have to have visited the bonfire/location to get summoned there. At NG+3 now and about halfway through
>2. Does it increase you chances of getting summoned if you hang around in a busy location?

Straight swords are only as boring as you make them. They're best used one-handed with a WA shield so that you can quickly access your shield breaker and thrust, but also so that you can walk forward while holding up a medium shield (or greatshield if you must) with great stability and damage reduction and be aggressive. Because your sword sweeps well and is quick, you don't have to wait to be attacked, you can just lay in. And because it's quick, you're not too committed once you do attack. It's the best defense against the kind of passive play the game encourages.

Longsword, Lothric Knight...I think that's it really. Those are the good ones. Ringed Knight is also fun.

So for an early game pyromancer build, how should I deal with enemies that can either dodge, such as abyss watchers, or are resistant to fire, like the demon? Also, what are some good early choices?
>>
>>176281945
>how should I deal with enemies that can either dodge

throw fireballs when they are stuck in an animation
>>
>asshole newbies who summon you for the whole zone and make you kill everything, then black crystal you before the boss so that you can't get a sunlight medal

these are the worst players in the entire game

Does mugen allow you to change the upgrade level of a weapon I can't find it?

nah i think it's worse when you stomp the shit out of his host and his phantoms only to have him pull the plug

What boss souls are worth holding onto in 2? I think this characters is gonna be all physical. Strength, dex, or quality.

If you don't want to go hollow for the fisting glove, just use the deep battleaxe to kill the stray demon. Or a resined raw weapon. Transpose his shit up for boulder heave and use that for fire resistant enemies. I'm also half certain you can use it to chain knockdown the AW second phase
