Would summon Ritsolaire.

I killed Sieglinde because she killed my friend. If she wanted to live she should've asked me to put down Siegmeyer.
About how many npcs do I have to kill to get invaded due to sin?

It hasn't even been 2 years since I bought DS1 but I already feel nostalgic playing it again
Why is it just so good? How did they manage to hit the nail on the head so damn well?
Why does DS2 just feel like a claustrophobic B-list knock off?

I don't wanna do the DLC again on my NG+

Fuck Alonne, Raime, Lud/Zallen and Blue Smelter

>>122283958
But all of them except Raime are optional and Raime is piss easy to cheese
You either wear Veldstads helm if you think phase 2 is easier, or chug estus in front of him to bait the overhead if you think phase 1 is easier

>>122284187
Should've left it to me. Siegmeyer is my responsibility not hers. If I can't prevent him dying I should be the one to put him down.
Last I checked Sieg never got trapped in a crystal golem.

>>122284172
I feel like if I do the DLC I have to do the optional areas to get their souls

Dark Souls is a real shit game when you think about it.

it's HER FATHER and she went to Lordran ONLY to find him, while you were banished to lordran to go hollowm you didn't had any right or anything to do with them. And she would had died if she didn't had fought back.

Nah son, she should've been better. I was the one constantly helping Seigmeyer out. She should count her lucky stars I broke her out of one of the RETARDED crystal men. Seriously she's useless, spending the whole game going where's muh dad?? Sieg went that a way. And then I help him out one last time in a way that prevents him from killing himself only for him to die offscreen by this bitch. Nah man, I didn't work so hard to keep my jolly friend alive just to be keked at the end of the game. I should've been the one to put him down if I absolutely had to.
Btw to the guy saying Sieglinde is the strongest npc, she was weak as fuck two hits from the large club and she was down. Didn't even get hit, at least Sieg got a hit in when i fucked up his quest my first time.

I don't think you're aware that phantoms increase the boss HP by a percentage. Summoning Solaire and Lautrec for gaping is pretty much the worst thing you can do since they will both die before she even gets to half health

Because you keep ''helping'' him, he keeps going alway from her, if you didn't had helped siegmeyer but saved sieglinde, she would had done it easily, sieglinde is one of the strongest npcs of the game, she is lvl 100 and something, much stronger than siegmeyer.

you ruined everything

now they are both dead

you did this

you could had prevented this

Yeah I'm really glad they didn't do the successful summon requirement for npc quests in DS1. Fuck getting Solaire to survive Gaping is hell.

demon's souls is spooky

painted world is the sucessor of des and the dlc is the precessor of bloodborne

So what happens if you "save" solaire from the sunlight maggot (I put save in quotes because really all it would take is one more death to make him hollow)? Do you get any extra dialogue?

r8 pls no h8

http://mmdks.com/7pca

>>122290994
Why not save him from the maggot and find out what happens?

>>122291079
Because it requires 80 humanity or poison cheese which hasn't worked in my last 4 runs.

>>122290994
He can be summoned for the Gwyn boss right.

>>122291336
Nigger isn't it only 30?

>>122290040
I played through DeS only a few times, but all of those were after the 300 hours in Dark Souls so i kinda fucked up the intended experience by knowing how most things work. For example, i didn't get why red eye knights were so notorious, because i just kept parry backstabbing them and never really getting hit.

Anyways, i don't remember ever being this creeped out by any area in des. Boletaria is just the burg but much longer, which i love, stonefang is annoying as fuck, latria is terrifying but i found it more weird then scary after dying a few times, storm place is cool, and VoD is just meh

Why does invading as a blue sentinel never work for me but invading as a red phantom almost always works?

I can never successfully invade as a blue which is odd since they can invade globally.

Smaller pool of available people to invade.

The orb first checks the area that you're in so it's best to go to a high activity area while the game is most populated and use orbs there (Dragon Shrine and Eleum Loyce were pretty good spots, in my experience). Just keep spamming the orb and you'll link up to a sinner eventually.

fromshit can't tell the difference between a player dropping you a weapon/you picking up said weapon legit/cheating said weapon in. Go ahead. They also can't detect infinite HP/stamina or instapetrify etc. which is why there are so many hackers and why this softban system is complete trash.

No one even asked for an original build. The guy asked for r8, the other guy fixed it to be viable. If he made an entirely different build then there would be no fucking point.

That's like asking "Hey guys how is my faith build!" and then someone else linking a 45 dex chaos blade pyro hand build.

REPOSTAN
Please help.
I've been using DSFix for quite a while, but I recently discovered that it's not affecting Dark Souls 1 like it used to anymore. Meaning I cannot skip intro logos, the "DSFix Enabled" text no longer appears at the title screen, and my textures aren't being rendered. The game doesn't crash though. Here's what I've done to try and fix this:

>Made sure I opted in the beta [-dsptde-2.0]
>Made sure AA and Motion Blur were off
>Updated the older versions of everything related to DSFix (DINPUT8.dll, DSFix.ini, dsfix folder, etc.) to version 2.4
>Made sure the internal rendering resolution is the same as my screen resolution
>Made sure enableTextureOverride is set to 1
>Made sure skipIntro is set to 1
>Made sure all of the necessary files were located in the DATA folder where DARKSOULS.exe was located
>Tested game with default settings in DSfix.ini
>Made sure I enabled all that I wanted again in DSfix.ini
>Made sure the textures I wanted were in the tex_override folder
>Disabled DEP for Dark Souls
>Made exceptions for DINPUT8.dll in case antivirus was blocking it
>Restarted computer multiple times

I do not have MSI Afterburner, so it's not that either. Tested the game after nearly all of these bullet points, and DSfix is just not being recognized anymore.

As >>122295746 said. There is no point if the guy just completely linked an unrelated build or just said "it's shit" and didn't give any criticism or find a way to make it less shit.

Also stop projecting this hard you fucking manchild.

I decided to replay Dark Souls yesterday and saw something weird

I was in Blighttown, somewhere near the bonfire with the fire dogs and I heard this loud bang and saw four or five projectiles hit a wall near me. It sounded like what the toxic darts and knives do when they hit a wall and looked like the darts/knives. But they were preceeded with that loud-ass bang and a bunch of them hit the wall.

I swear to god it was somehow a shotgun.

by the way, the icons of demon's souls have higher quality, so you have to make them smaller and lose some details to put them in das1(its about 70-80% the size of des items)

>>122301040
have you tried ovals or rounded rectangles? i know you’re focused on des now, but other than you i only ever see rectangles. more minimalistic rectangles, more intricate rectangles, golden ones, black ones, it’s stale. also can you align the letters and images in the menus?

I normally ascetic the earthen peak top fire to get the +2 silver serpent ring anyways, I thought doing so would also reset all the enemies inside the earthen peak but apparently it didn't, do I have to ascetic the central one and/or bottom fires too in order to respawn the sorceresses?

Alternatively if someone's got a spare I'd happily take it off their hands.

Just started DaS after finished DeS.
Is there anything blatantly OP like Magic on DeS?
In a way that it kills the game because it makes it easy mode.

I want to run sword + shield.

>>122308281
Dark Magic is pretty OP
Curse + dusk ring + RTSR (with health in range) + sanctus + power within + buffed weapon can pretty much one shot bosses and players
Basically anything with Power Within and RTSR can be super fucking powerful (including dark magic)

Just stay away from dark magic and power within, and you will be good. RTSR isn't OP on it's own, but it's pretty fun to use for an extra bit of damage (but your health needs to be within 1-20% or 1-10% range can't rememberp)

>>122308394
>no there is nothing op like that.

Are you kidding me? If you rush the catalyst in blighttown (which is really easy to get since you just run past 3 barbarians and a blowdart guy) even the lowest level sorcery will one shot most shit from burg to lower burg, and by then you will most likely have great heavy soul arrow which will one shot everything in depths blighttown and dark root. Then once you get soul spear and dark magic you are basically one shotting everything in the game.

And with Bellowing Dragoncrest + Dusks crown + TCC + RTSR/Power within you are basically going to one shot every boss with a dark bead or pursuers.

you don't need anything of that in des, you can cast second chance, buff all the defenses and kill everything in 1 hit with unlimited spells without using any extra item other than the catalyst and the old spices. sorcery alone in das is shit, black magic is op but it have few uses.

From BB, it's:
Hunter (with cape)

Executioner (minus the lampshade helmet)

>>122314501
Wait for his charge attack or the cooldown to his leaping artorias move. Those are both safe times to get lots of hits in, and also double as a chance to heal

Hint: if you don't think you have enough time to safely attack, you do not have enough time to heal

I´m not perfect so he will hit me eventually. Then I can´t get a chance to get my hp up again and I´ll die to another hit, which again will happen eventually.
It doesn´t matter how much damage I do to him before that as long as he has any health left.
So yes, he´s not that hard but he´s still killing me.

>>122315498

Does anybody have the DS2 version of this image

hey this is probably a bad question but can a gravelord servant who is currently in NG infect players in NG+ if they're in the level range? The gravelord guides are pretty unclear about this, just that NG players cannot get infected with red phantoms.

I read the Black knight Halberd In Ds2 needs around 60 in Int/faith total to get the full potential of the weapon.

If I was 50 faith/ 10 int would I lose value?
Also, should I weapon buff or could I manage without it?

Is it from a chariot or a supply cart? Are those barrels perhaps connected to it? What's in those barrels? Why is the cart wheel not on the cart but instead in a store room with those barrels? The room is guarded by a hollow soldier who doesn't have an armor and is armed with a regular sword. Was he perhaps the person who rode the cart? What was his mission?

They need a better incentive to invade. Passwords and making invading easier was a good choice. Player interaction just needs to be done correctly in this series, for once.

>Player interaction
As long as we have emote gestures and no direct talking, I'm happy

>comparing quelaag's furysword with A BLACKSMITH HAMMER
the hammers aren't even real weapons

>>122334980
you, or whoever the fuck started it bitching about worthless shit

>>122335803
>no direct talking

why's that? i thought itd be cool to be able to chat with buddies. but maybe thatd be best left to private servers.

what if I told you there was a voice chat option?

Darkmoon Blade or Sunlight blade? I don't know if I'll be able to farm 80 fucking souvenirs of reprisal

>>122296267
For now, I think it's worse
look up where the Drangleic Armor is in the FoFG
Armor isn't a huge deal in there, neither of the bosses is much danger if you know what to do(Aka walk to the right place against the giant, and fight the pursuer where there are ballistas)

>>122336068
I did, just put on covenent gold serpent and 10 humanity and once you have 50, submit them then use the dmb+2 to farm the crow wimmin to get to 80

Relying on the vague communication of gestures is better for the game overall
It adds personality to the online, it suits the enigmatic nature of the rest of the game
I know most of us just use them for pvp memes now, but I think there's value in summoning a player in an area you're struggling in, and letting them guide you along with vague pointing. It lets you get help and interact with someone whilst still playing by the game's rules. If you could just hop on voice chat and have them explain everything in explicit detail, it would kill some of the mystique.

>>122336347
you're actually right on that man

that fucking feeling when that bro you summoned knows exactly what you mean with these vague ass gestures.

>>122335246

The first time I saw his sanic-speed flying dash was terrifying.

>>122336347
I agree with this. Using gestures makes playing online lighthearted and silly. The last thing I want is to hear some fag complaining or flaunting with voicechat during pvp.

So why the fuck is PC Dark Souls so fucking dead? I mean, I can't find a single invasion in the Darkroot forest


Did people not switch to the steamworks beta or what?

>>122332825
He doesn't use a pyro hand or a dark hand.

>>122338181
you're probably low on nodes. I played maybe 3 days ago and I was able to get invasions(as a forest protector).

>>122338181
>switching to the beta

Dude, opt out of that. There are more people in the main portion of the game.

I just heard about the BB leak on steam. It would be cool if it came out soon to give us something to play during the wait for ds3.

>>122339014
stop. Its not gonna happen, no matter how many low quality jpegs you show us it wont happen. Sony wont let bloodborne go, ever.

>>122325917
I don't know why eyes trigger me so bad, I hated BB for that reason

>>122294586

Wow I sure do hope its in the game this time.

PLEASE HELP ME

I can't find the aged feather in my inventory, and I know the Emerald Herald gave it to me.

Where IS it?

>>122339926
>trigger

Stop

Does Royal Navlaan ever stop invading you? Most invaders stop after I beat them once

>>122341650
If you did Navlaan's questline, you gave it to him.

>>122346235
I haven't talked to Navlaan in hollow form yet. I did once as a human, but he just told me to not talk to him.

>>122346235
you never give it to him

But where is my feather? :(

>the real dark souls starts here

Supposedly the SilverBlack Spear and Partizan have the same moveset. Are they fun to use, and which would be better with 40DEX, 25FTH, and 25INT? Should I infuse? This is for my Pyro.

>>122335668
What if you didn't go hollow anymore?

Either way they better fucking bring back non-cracked eye orbs.

>>122348343
Ohhh wait, I remember, the Emerald Herald hasn't given me the aged feather yet. I haven't been to the Dragon Aerie yet

sorry for bothering you, everyone, I'm stupid >.>

>>122346793
just buy 99 homeward bones.

>>122348483
>>122348343
erp, and I didn't mean to reply to that post

I'm going to bed now

>>122348561
I don't want to raise my soul level, I have to stay at a certain tier. Not for PvP, but for PvE because I am terrible at this game and I need summons to beat bosses for me. If I use souls to buy bones, then I'll get out of tier and I will have to solo bosses.

>>122348698
they arent that expensive.

and you will find summons at any sm within reason.

and do the bosses yourself, why play the game unless you are going t play it yourself?

I hope there's a gravelord equivalent in ds3 for free for all pvp shenanigans again

>>122349220
Gravelord vs Undead Rapport for mob teamfights

why are miracles so boring in demons souls?

>>122349192
I like exploring the world and fulfilling some quest, but I don't like scary monsters. I don't have the skill level to beat bosses on my own.

I've already spent 150 hours on this game and I'm just at Aldia's Keep and I might as well finish it up

Yes I know, I'm not gud at all

>>122349381
>Why is all magic boring in every souls game
Fixed it for you.

>>122349930
i undertand quaint pacifism but you are a man arent you. a man needs to run head first into challenges and enjoy dying to fearsome beasts.

to hit and to be hit and to win. that is what makes a man. be strong. you can do it.

>>122346793
just use the darksign

>>122350187
Inspirational post.

>Landing a Dark Hand R2 on someone in PvP

Why is nearly every other person I invade tonight disconnecting?
And what's with the sudden influx of new players on 360? DS3 is still far off, and most people have migrated to current gen/PC DaS2. I was using my SL1 Dickwraith and I ran in to dozens of legit new players (only about the first 3 or so achievements)

It's kinda cute watching a host panic at their first invasion. Some guy tried to black crystal me away before I poisoned him.

I'm gonna play DS2 for the first time. What's the most fun build to use? I'd prefer something that wasn't available in DS1.

>>122350185
Pyromancy is fun. Mostly short ranged and AoE. Sorcery needs more spells like Soul Shower, Soul Bolt and Soul Spear Barrage. Ranged in Dark Souls isn't really in the spirit of the game.

>>122352821
Get two Caestus and enough StrDex to powerstance them, then punc everything and everyone to death. That's what I did for my first playthrough and it was fun. Hexers are new but they play exactly lile sorcerers, so zzzzz. You spend most of your time spamming Dark Orb with the Sunset Staff.
