Early for cute Dragons.

Does anyone under 1m SM (P S 3) have a Dark Armor Chest Piece they are not using?

The Ieaping Mimic jumped right into the lron Keep with the spear, both parts of the current buiId that isn't finished.

Don't want to be seIfish and ask for both but the Dark Armor Chest Piece wouId at Ieast compIete the buiId (and spear if you are not using it!)

Have some twinkIing and a few pet. bones you can have. Anything eIse just ask!

lf you'd be so kind, just post where you can drop your sign!

It might have to come down to that, but this is the 1st play through and from reading up (not on a guide just a build and item page) that anywhere with ascetic in NG + will be ++ instead. Trying to stay away from them for now.

Had read up on the armor but there was no mention that the Mimic could jump right off.

There was actually no mention of it being a Mimic either, just said "chest" in the description.

Thank you for suggesting m8. The Dark Armor Mask looks like what most people really want and they never use the chest piece but it fits this build perfectly.

This might be a question one could look up but i prefer getting more dynamic input from real people with hot opinions

What weapons that Straid exchange for Boss souls are worth considering. Currently i'm soul level 95 and have beaten a lot of bosses i just got back to Straid a bit late. I'm using the Heide Knight sword for now (i really like it's speed) Does he have anything that works similar to that?

>>121846393
>system?

>>121845875
I've never used a trainer in Dark Souls 2, so I have no idea what sort of protocal there is to follow to avoid soft banning.

The only reason I'm really asking this is because I'm bored and don't want to really spend like time building a character up.

Quick melee with Straid? Nope, only some useful spells in time, explore some more to find the other boss weaponsmith, they have the most important boss soul weapons.

I'm on my first play through on PS3 and I was able to get summons without too much trouble when I was below 1m, and I had lots of areas showing up with the orange border even when I wasn't actively looking for co-op. It's not that there's nobody at that SM, just that nobody in this thread at that SM wants to help him. And that's going to be at least partly because there aren't many people who are staying at that SM range.

reee

>>121851330
Artorias being left-handed is nothing more than a meme, without much support

>>121851426
The Majestic greatsword in DaS2 is a left-handed weapon.

But i'm aware we only saw him when his right arm was broken, so we don't know if his left was his natural sword hand or not.

Most seem to agree that he was left-handed however.

It's only because most places suggest that under 1m SM has the most co op signs and 2 - 9m is for arena (but not into arena really, so much lag even with perfect net so just gave up on it).

Willing to increase SM if you guys want to drop a sign, It's just nice having constant co op around at this SM.

Other way around, sport.

I kind of regret playing through the ds1 and ds2 as a sorcerer first. Now nothing comes close in terms of dmg and I can't enjoy flashy stuff if i'm playing as a melee character.

Thoughts? Can swap between the mid and fast roll depending on what's more fun at the time

Ashen Mist Heart.

>>121851426
>>121851624
The support comes from his holding the sword in his left and shield in his right on the cover of the game. He uses the sword right handed when you fight him because his left arm is broken.

so, how many characters in DaS2 are undead? Everyone in this game is treating death like it's actually a big deal

>>121854107
both look fine, although there's no point in having Dark Hand on an Artorias build, even a corrupted one

if he was holding his shield in his right hand then his rightarm would be broken when he shielded sif, not his left.

Why is the Quelaags furysword op? My friend was telling me this, but I dont see how.

>>121854597
Theory comes from this cover. Worth noting though that the armor doesn't really match any armor in the game, it doesn't look much like Artorias's armor from when he showed up and it's not right for Elite Knight either.

The only strong evidence is the Majestic Sword in DaS2 which is a) from DaS2 and b) could just as well be a reaction to the fanon as an indication of the original intent.

Yeah, I feel like this is good enough but if you say anything like

You can also kill the other 3 knights and Gwyn, if anything Artorias would be a little harder (unless the abyss made him more powerful, but I'm not sure on all the lore)

>>121855280
>inherent curse

No.

>>121855165
It is if you compare it to most other weapons unbuffed. For pve, its fire damage rips bosses apart. It can't stack up in pvp against buffed weapons, though.

I want to hate him but I can't

>>121855549
this is not artorias, but i am sure he was left handed, and this is why his left arm was broken, his arm is already broke in the concept art, i don't think it's a coincidence.

>>121858336
Usually I just grab a Tower Kite Shield at Andre and upgrade it to +10. That's enough to carry me until Anor Londo so I can farm a Silver Knight Shield.

>>121858336
he's wrong though
knight shield is heavier and less stable

>>121857756
+15 and Darkmoon/Sunlight Blade is the best 'divine' weapon.

How shit is dex pve and pvp wise in ds2? I'm reading that scaling is trash compared to str

I just dropped it after that, no point

he was right handed, you don't hold your shield in your strong hand

there's something about the Knight Shield, I swear
so many people think it's actually worthwhile for some reason despite being objectively inferior to multiple other easy-to-get medium shields

A very small percentage of people are naturally ambidextrous. Most people who are ambidextrous are just left handed but learned to use their right hand for certain tasks due to available tools being right handed or being forced or encouraged to use their right hand by institutions like schools.

I'm not really familiar with dex weapons, but faster weapons benefit more from buffs than slow weapons, even then if you want a greatsword it's still going to be better off +15 and buffed than as a divine weapon.

>Is this really an issue for people?

It depends on the weapon you're using. Try using a long weapon with wide sweeping attacks that has low to medium durability (most of the halberds are a good example) anywhere that has narrow corridors. You'll have trouble keeping your weapon from breaking until you can get the bracing knuckle ring.

It has as much to do with the previous two souls games more or less encouraging you to use one main weapon that you poured all your upgrades into as anything.

>>121877706
Once you've beat O&S your confidence is probably pretty high and your level of play is probably up there too seeing as they are the hardest challenge due to being actually hard and timed just perfectly into the game where you probably won't be OP but are in far enough to have a grasp on how the game works.

Just how Nito likes it

>>121883173
Personally I've always thought that it was a reemergence of the power of the dark soul in later generations of humans. Which would say interesting things about the dark soul, and perhaps the other lord souls as well, since it has to consume itself to exhibit its power to maintain its host.

>so i told this guy to make a thousand feet fall from a plank
>and he actually did the absolute madman

>>121883317
the dark sign makes people next to immortal though and it's weakening him, that's why he tells you to go spread some calamity

>>121883317
I meant the darksign goes against the point of making things die, a bit unclear

It could always be just associated with the dark soul / humanity in general without any external machinations

As someone who just played through both I can say that DaS was harder. At least the beginning leading up to the 4 souls.

DaS - Falchion
DaS2 - Murokumo

>>121883247
>the whole point is to make things die
And it accomplishes this point.
Over and over and over again.

>>121884981
I can't speak for playing on release but I'm talking about things like areas and availability. Does DaS2 have areas like Blighttown or Lost Izalith where you have hazards like having to walk through lava and poison? I felt like I got lost a lot more in DaS than in the second, but I may just be retarded.

>>121885389
You can just sprint through the lava with the ring or skip it via the covenant and the poison is hardly the worst part of blight town, and blight town is still not that hard

>>121884981
You know DaS 1 PvE was much harder before some of the early patches right?

In any case, overall in my experience vanilla Dark Souls was harder than 2. In large part because most of the bosses are gaping dragon without the channeler tier difficulty.

>>121885389
>Does DaS2 have areas like Blighttown or Lost Izalith where you have hazards like having to walk through lava and poison?

Have you played 2? It has two different poison levels, a fire level, and a level where you slog through water that slows you similar to the swam in lower blighttown (although this isn't one of the poison levels.)

>>121855549
Alva armor.
No joke

>>121885596
>blight town is still not that hard

It's a challenging area when you don't know your way around. Like most areas of any of the Souls games it becomes significantly easier as you learn your way around.

>>121883173
The waning flame. The curse re-emerges and gets stronger as the fire weakens.

>>121885878
Did not exist in that game.

>>121885667
Black Gultch was pretty annoying I agree. And I assume the fire level is Iron Keep but the lava wasn't nearly as much of a threat as it was in Demon Ruins/ Lost Izalith. Harvest Valley's poison was only bad indoors with the pots. What was DaS2's Catacombs?

>>121886057
the gutter

>>121886141
I'd think the gutter was Tomb of the Giants since no other area has the whole visibility gimmick. But it does mirror the lead up to Nito/Rotten

>>121886272

>>121886057
>Demon Ruins/ Lost Izalith

I really didn't find the lava to be a particular danger in Demon Ruins at all since you only had to deal with it. In Lost Izalith you have the ring and most of the level you don't have to deal with lava anyway. The only place where it presents any kind of challenge is in the centipede demon fight and in getting the hidden items at the beginning of demon ruins (which Iron Keep has a significantly worse version of)

>>121885963
Compare the two
Ty probably drew it up like the golden yurt in the art book and never used it until 2

>>121886057
>What was DaS2's Catacombs?

Grave of Saints is closest in design and gameplay. It's nowhere near as infuriating though.

>my CE'd armor doesn't actually give defense even though it shows scaling and proper values in inventory
goddammit i refuse to farm heide knights for 2 hours only to get 5 gauntlets and a spear

>>121886436
Now that I think about it the lava was just a small obstacle with the ring (aside from equipment damage which really didn't matter much anyway) The Bounding Demons jumping around in groups made things a little harder if you where trying to explore the area. Though they don't respawn killing them can prove to be a challenge.

>>121886352

dont take too long. you dont have to meddle with every slider just for the sake of it.

before you finish it, take a short break. then look at it again and see if you still like it.

take your time to write sliders down if you think thats a good idea.

Okay guys earlier I Steam wouldn't run Dark Souls, so I restarted the computer and the loading screens take way too long, and when it's finished loading, most of the map is not even loaded. I want to remove EVERYTHING from game except my saves / characters. What files are they in, so that I can back them up?
