Alright so i figured it out, it lets you see signs to summon people, but you can't summon them.Why the fuck would you use this then.
>Yellowfinger Heysel
JUST FUCK MY SHIT UP
I could beat him in the Crucifixion woods by cheesing him with power attacks, but holy shit this Farron Keep invasion. I can't see him coming, getting close to him means he can hit me with the world's most devastating pickaxe (which doubles as his staff for casting meh damage sorceries from a range and staying invisible) and he takes no damage whatsoever. This is terrible.
Anyone know where I can find a dark and poison infusion gems? The wiki tells me enemies to farm them from but i'm sure there's gotta be at least one of those in the world somewhere.
So sorceries for a second playthrough is a terrible idea? I'm reading that casters got fucked again.
I miss DaS1 where you could rely on your field of magic in its entirety rather than having to supplement it with a weapon that ends up doing more damage than your endgame spells anyway

Refined or sharp for my black blade?
Looks like watchdog covenant completely broken. For unknown reason I only invade US west coast players with big lag. If turn off worldwide mode, invasion will stop completely. At least 2 laggy invasions per hour is better than nothing...
Well this is encouraging

How much did you have to pay up? I love the men in pointed hats.
The FUCK am I supposed to do against these fucking sanic speed motherfuckers? Specially when they show up in fucking pairs? I can't cast at them because the time it takes me to channel a fucking fire orb one of the fuckers has already killed me.
Oh and they charge and jump and plunge about half the fucking map like they're channelling fucking ornstein it's a god damn joke.
Is it just me or is Chaos Bed a little too OP for Pontiff? Literally just demolished him first try. I don't feel proud about it.

Why is week 1 souls always like this? I'm fuckin' using the claymore and a +3, 200 AR curved sword, and everyone else is too scared to fight me. When I got invaded in 2/demons/bb it was never like this (it was in DaS1 though). Why? All I want to do is fight you. Stop being a faggot and running away
D-Deus vult?
>>138697394
i'm pretty good at dark souls though
honestly this game has had far more plain unfair encounters than any of the others
never have I ever felt the cries of "git gud" more than I do now, 10+ tries into abyss watchers

>at a fork, deciding whether to go cathedral or Farron Keep
Which one is progress and which isn't? Also, which weapon is gonna carry me through the rest of the game? Upgraded weapons right now are Large Club, Astora Greatsword and I think Broadsword. I just want to finish this first run already so I can start a new one for PvP with comfort, holy shit this is infuriating for some reason and I already feel burnt out.
>>138697436
are those the assholes with bleed at cathedral of the deep? if so, two hand your weapon and r1-mash them to death
What's the point of this guy? And jesus sword&broad is way easier than greatswords.
>>138697629
I spend more time invading than I do actually progressing. I still need to kill Yhorm, but I keep invading Anor Londo and the dungeon instead

Yeah, his gear is probably the best in the entire first half of the game, some of the best in the whole game upgraded. His armor is great and his shield is godlike defense and stability for its weight.
People probably never talk about it because they can't bear to kill him.
>>138698475
Yes, butyou can't make weapons out of boss souls if you don't get his drop.
>>138698475
It's never an option to not hit a giant ballsack.

>>138698330

So, I got suggested DS3 because I like MonHan and its clones, and action games like DMC, Bayonetta and God Hand.
I've always avoided Souls because it always seemed like the difficulty of this game revolved around
>explore for half an hour
>die to a threat that couldn't have been avoided without knowledge beforehand
>walk again for half an hour
>clear previous threat with ease
>repeat until end
And the bosses I've seen in Souls and Bloodborne look comparable to the easier and slower bosses in Monster Hunter.
I'm not wrong, right?

I really fucking love Lothric, this is the first time since DaS I've felt like I was in an actual kingdom, and I can see things in the skybox and imagine what it is over there. It is even better than DaS in that regard, everything is really gorgeous.
BB is my favorite by far, but Yarnham did NOT feel like a believable city except for Yahar'Ghul.

>>138698309
Well I had two of those. Still. those fuckers are so fucking fast I can hardly get a cast off before they rip me to shreds with their attacks.
So many enemies in general are fucking sanic fast in DS3. I might be wrong but I remember most DS1 enemies as being a bit more sluggish but strong. With some fast hitters in between. In DS3 everything seems to sprint at you, which is not fun if you can't cancel out of your casting animation.

Not a clue. I was rolling around lvl22 as a shitty robin hood and found an invasion almost every two minutes. From what other people are saying it seems region matchmaking might be messing with the Watchdogs in particular.

Scythe miracle made from Aldrich's soul says he had a dream that revealed the location of Priscilla to him. Since he uses a lifehunt scythe attack in his fight, you can figure what happened.

Can I parry with the Pyro starting axe? If so, h2Parry on KB/M?
>>138699145
Yeah, DaS1 enemies are pretty slow and move like robots, tbqh. They also have hardly any variety to their attacks. DaS2 added more attack patterns and slightly more lifelike movement. This is definitely a lot faster. Even big fat fuck enemies are more nimble than skinny enemies from DaS1. Fought Capra Demon earlier and it was like an old man wading through a swimming pool by comparison.

any tips for dancer? i cant seem to dodge most of her attacks in phase 2, and there doesn't seem to be many openings to land a strike.
>>138699432
Nothing happened. He dreamt of her. Priscilla is referred to in present tense in the only item relating to her other than the miracle. The miracle doesn't even do what the original Lifehunt was capable of, nor does his version. The Lifehunt Scythe he uses is a bad recreation, whereas the skills he took from Gwyndolin are accurate.
He saw an image of her cowering in his dream and that's all.

Why do people not invest in vigor?
Is that 20k key even remotely worth it? What do you get from the area it lets you access?
Does anyone know what determines the number of souls rewarded after beating a boss with a host?
I assume this is where you join the Mound Makers. Can you freely switch between Covenants? I want to give them a shot but not necessarily be stuck as one.
Why can't I make a blonde waifu in DSIII?
Where are you supposed to go next after Aldritch? I went up and got the sun princess ring but that just looked like a dead end from there.

Welcome to DaS3.
I had to leave 3 Great-class weapons behind just because the fucking Broadsword is more efficient with better DPS.
>You're able to sit ANYWHERE

>>138699739
Same for every slwo and big weapons. From suck cocks.
I have a lot of questions, please help me if you can.
-Is it possible to cheese the dragon fast enough to kill it before it flies away?
-What are the best bleed/luck weapons? (I have Anri's sword and its the shit)
-Do all of the fat ladies drop the gnaw spell? I've been grinding them for hours.
-where is the stat relocation lady?
-where is the kamehameha spell?
>>138699757
There's an estus flash shard there and while there is an exploit to get around it, 20k souls is nothing a bit later on in the game. Just be patient
>>138699784
>Can you freely switch between Covenants?
Yes, you get covenant items that you can swap out

Someone please tell me there's a greatsword that's worth using. I just wasted a bunch of titanite on the Astora Greatsword and it's utter shit. It stuns enemies about the same amount as the Uchigatana, does only slightly more damage, and swings at about half the speed.
Am I going to be stuck with this stupid katana the whole game? Is there a single non-straight sword, non-katana weapon that's worth bothering with at all?

>how do I rosaria on the cathedral?
take the elevator in the second shortcut in the cathedral. then climb to the top of the tower. after you kill the priest drop down to the upper flying buttress. there will be a pair of doors on the left use either one then walk on the arches till you can drop down to the area across from onion patches then just follow the path.
I've always like using longswords but I also used to switched to greatswords when I found one ... this sucks. I don't want longswords to be the meme weapon guys.

Does anything ever mention where they're coming from or why they're shooting lasers at me? I doubt they're the angels Gertrude met since we see statues of Kaathe with angel wings around the Archives.

is it still worth learning some pyro stuff if you're not leveling int or faith at all?

In the catacombs, before you get to the collapsing bridge, you can go upstairs to where that red-eye skeleton archer is. There's a skeleton in a hat up there that doesn't attack you and will run away from you when you approach it.
Back downstairs there's a little fucking crab that seems to only spawn when that hat skeleton is killed.
What the fuck does it mean? Is there more to it after the crab? I can't find anything else.
FUCKING WHY?

>>138698002
>>138698187
tbqh I read somewhere that Pyros need to focus on Int and faith so I've put most of my points into that plus some into attunement because of the start of the game the mana pool was so small that I couldn't fight mobs AND the boss with my mana pool.
However now I still feel like my flame attacks do barely any damage. The pyromancer flame is +5 and I take minimal bits out of enemies HP Bar while phantoms I summon just piss their swings at them and chunks of their HP fall off.
I feel cheated.
What should I have levelled up then? Should I have actually been going for HP?

>>138700959
Poise only affects hyper armor and stagger. You'll actually flinch hard if you have 0 poise, whereas with high poise you'll really only twitch.
Hyper armor is where it's at though. Walking through 2 greatswords swings to pancake some motherfucker for 1200 damage is great.

Invading in the catacombs is the most fun I've had in any Souls game.
How vastly different would NPC invasions be if they followed the same rules as the player did? No infinite stamina or animation cancels. How difficult would the be if they actually had to rely on their combat AI rather than just outright cheating to create difficulty.

npc invaders do not have infinite stamina you silly nigger they cna just afford to be more reckless because they don't die in 2-3 hits like you can.
>>138701548
There are practically no games where the computer doesn't "cheat". In RTS, its given more resources than it should have and more map awareness than it should have. It can also multitask like a motherfucker. In fighting games it just activates moves, it doesn't need to do inputs. That leads to impossible situations of different moves happening instantly after each other.
It's just the way it is. Programming AI - actually good AI and not just basic if/then things - is one of the very hardest things in computing. Even if they had the time and resources, it would need an amazing CPU to get anywhere near the level of a human (thus negating the need to "cheat").
>>138701656

Capes are based on the chest armour.
DEX gives you i-frames.
Heavy armour is worthless since poise is the same as DaS2.
Grass crest shield or whatever with 100% physical resist is usually good.
Full physical builds don't need magic except maybe pyromancy.
You generally want as much HP as you can get until diminishing returns kick in at 25~.

Is this the Old Demon King everyone's talking about? I'm getting absolutely buttravaged by him at lvl37, am I too low?
So was I supposed to go to the cathedral before beating the watchers?
I wanted to get bamboozled by onion patches, but he never showed. Instead, he skipped straight to the shrine.
Is there a recommended area order?
DaS1 > BB > DaS3 > DeS* > DaS2
We all agree with this, right?

Is it just me or do pontiff knights suck ass to fight. It feels like you have to r1 mash them to death or else they'll do a 7 hit combo with huge range. Missing a parry pretty much means you're instantly dead.

The storm sword is supposed to do "massive damage" to Yhorm the Giant by using the weapon art.
But it only does 60 damage, compared to 70+ for other upgraded weapons I have.
Am I doing something wrong?
>>138702221
Yeah. When you are right next to them touching them. And then it only does approximately double damage. With how crazy enemies are in this game, point blank spells are literally suicide. Not to mention soul arrow is still way better. at point blank, its only 1/2 as good as soul arrow instead of 1/4 as good.

you can go either way; both areas are very similar in difficulty. onion patches only happens if you:
beat deacons -> go get bamboozled (can't do it before the kill and sitting at a bonfire) -> THEN go get tricked in firelink; all that happened is you skipped a step, not a big deal

hold L2 until the wind goes nuts, then attack from stance
>>138702528
that's so variable, though; there's no hard and fast guide for the moment (supposed to be at exactly 30 throughout cathedral?)
>>138702361
Bloodborne is literally the only game in the series where leveling vigor/vitality/hp to 50 is necessary. You're fine with 30/40 for the PvE in any other game, and you don't need to make it a priority. As for the weapon arts, they are useful but not necessary at all in PvE, you should be fine with base stats for a melee build.

In souls games it always recommend to get hp and stamina up first. Level str/dex as you see fit for weps since you have to invest a minimum for 40 stat points into either faith/int or faith+int to make your spells do shit in DS3
Hey FromSoft stop making areas that force the player to stand there for 15 seconds waiting for enemies to walk by or else they'll get their ass reamed by 5 different guys who can two shot you. After the 6th fucking time it starts to just piss the player off.

I'm not talking about it in a PVP context. I think, aside of the invaders being disadvantaged (I never invade) PVP is fine with exception to some of the weapons. It's in the PVE context where everything, even fucking RATS, will stunlock you. Combat is now either stunlocking and R1 to rapidly finish them (because if you don't you'll get stunfucked by 2-3-4-5 of them ganging up on you or because if you don't stunlock them they will unleash some fucking retarded combo to wipe you to death like >>138702243 or the rare and lucky case of a good 1v1 fight by an NPC invader, in-world invader, black knight types, ect.

>>138702997
As a rule of thumb Faith and Int start scaling at 20+, start scaling really hard at 50+ due to increasing returns. Pyromancy starts scaling hard at 30/30+ int+faith. Also Im pretty sure sorc and miracles also have 3 dmg boost rings.

>>138700672
id say restart the game and focus mainly on getting your vigor and strength or dexterity (1 only) up to at least 40 , and keep the other one to a bare minimum. the other stats I dont know well enough. a pyromancer build will use a lot of faith and fp points id guess
>>138703178
dumb das1 question from a guy who's somehow only first playing the game now:
it's too late to go unlock the lost izalith shortcut and save solaire if i've already entered the area normally, right? i never even realized i was approaching the place til i saw the title card.
>>138702787
Blocking is for retards
>>138702873
Look on the bright side! We can't play as heavy armored guys anymore, heavy weapons are shit compared to longswords, but now we have STEALTH GAMEPLAY.
So this is what it is like when you fucking hate a developer and hate their game but also like playing it. Never felt it before.
>>138703262
Now you know how random enemies in the Witcher feel.
Where do I get chaos coal?
Is it in Smouldering Lake?
>>138703295
Greataxe, club, any great hammer, axes, etc.
Literally every single time I invade the host is just sliding around motionless making it incredibly hard to fight.
What gives?
>>138702873
where does this even happen
>>138703280
This. I also try to kill him in a relatively safe spot so he can recover his souls safely.
>>138703262
Roll when he attacks
Hit him until he dies
This worked for me
>>138703008

>>138703389
fuck you suck my dick tell me how to beat this retarded fucker
i've found that you can position him above the stairs and use the positioning to kind of cheese your way through some of his attacks, but god damnit i was going 30% with no damage taken SUDDENLY GET COMBO'D TO DEATH

I'm thinking about doing a Pyromancer run but i honestly don't know how i should go about it. Should i only use spells for bosses and the harder enemies? How much attunement is required? How many Ash Estus should i carry? I'm really bad at managing FP.

I haven't fought him specifically yet, but it seems like the really cranked up the cheap factor for DaS3 for some reason.
>>138703236
Talk to Leo in the shrine. First he'lol give you cracked orbs and after you bring him a pale tongue a key to a darkwright cell that has the orb.
Which one does more damage. The axe has a secondary dark damage. Does it just stack with the normal damage or how do I read this shit
>>138703236
Leonard's quest
So I'm shit at DaS3 and need my hand held. Anyone willing to help me out with the Dancer? SL66, waiting around Vordt's bonfire

Yes, but it has 10 in everything
You build a caster out of that, wasted points
Build a quality build, wasted points in int and fai
Etc etc
Is the whip actually worse against armoured enemies or is that just flavour text?
>>138703635
They will do about the same in practice because of how defenses work. Uninfuse the axe if you are going strength.
>>138703262
I'm not sure if they did it for DS2 but considering a fucking ring in the game explicitly promotes adding further invulnerability to your iframe rolling these chucklefuck nips decided everyone should play like they are fucking naruto and fuck anything else. You want pray knight? you want pray heavy warriah? too bad fuk u here stunlock horhorhorhorhorhor
>>138703513
I dodged a bullet there. Almost got it because of that CRPG nostalgia.
>>138703616
you know how every enemy has a fucking tell when you need to roll? like, you can see it in their animation?
all of that shit is thrown out of the fucking window, his animations have too much fucking variety you can never tell exactly when to roll because he can just swing instantly
this is so bullshit, just kill me now

>>138703605
What weapon/armor are you using?
>>138703635
DBA has higher AR but it's split, which means armour will affect the damage more
ISS is less overall, but it's also going to scale
Where do I find Aldrich of the deep?
In that giant castle with the two giants?
>>138703543
It starts out with 10 in everything which is just wasted points since you won't be leveling every stat.
>tfw 3v1 and I actually win
Holy shit that was a rush. I took out the phantoms first, too.
>>138703648
set a pass, i'll help you
>>138703635
Different types of damage act against different enemy's defenses, which are different per enemy. Basically, weapons that specialize in one type of damage are better than split. Look it up if you want to know more.
>>138703652
>Now invading as a Watchdog of Farron

I can dig it.
>>138703543
You don't understand how min/maxing works.
The stats that you plan to raise don't matter. You want the fewest points in stats that you don't want. These points are just wasted.
With Deprived, everything is average, so it has a lot of wasted levels in things like Luck that most builds don't care about.
This is why Knight and Pyro are so good. They have the lowest Luck, which is pretty much always a worthless stat.
>>138703639
>>138703634
Shit, I'm already past Fire Keeper's Eyes, is it too late to get it off him?
Just beat the game including all optional bosses and I'm extremely disappointed how straight swords are pretty much the only viable weapon option due to speed and damage.
>>138703262
this desu
Pontiff was the biggest faggot I've ever seen, more engaging than BoC
Quick Step is really awkward, at least on a PS3 controller
I've never had a problem parrying using L2, but dodging with L2 feels really off
Is anyone else having trouble with it?
Has anyone tried committing to a Quick Step build by binding Weapon Skill to the roll button?

>>138703745
Greataxe +10 and Alva's for the high poise
Alva's has pretty damn good poise for it's weight, even if it's defense is only average. It seems that "rounder" armors have more poise than heavier ones. It treats it as a deflection value, so walking around wearing a fridge gives you shit poise because of all the hard angles.
>>138703635
It stacks with normal damage
Axe is waaay stronger
>>138703761
>>138703806
So itll do 200ish damage, but the dark damage will get resisted some?
>>138703879
You forgot:
>I'm bad meme
>>138703262
i don't see why you'd even mention allant
anyway, i beat him first try by just kind of trading hits and weathering the first form, then being aggressive in 2nd form and dodging whenever they both started flying
i feel like this game really rewards aggression in general. if you back off at all, most enemies/bosses seem to go into some kind of special fuck you mode, making it harder than if you just mashed in their faces
>>138703804
I forgot to mention I'm on xbone
If you are, all well and good. If anyone else is willing to help me with dancer, password is idioteq
Where am I even supposed to go in the Cleansing Cathedral? There's just the Does Not Open From This Side meme and then empty rooms and loops

>>138704000
>xbone
shit, can't help you there, i'm on PC
>>138703967
>trading hits
uh, let me guess, you were using an ultra greatsword? if i trade hits with him, chances are he can combo it into another swing. there goes an estus! oh, and he decided to fuck your shit up mid chug? hah, let's see if we can try it again
Nameless king is a straight up nigger.
>>138703698
This is very interesting. I genuinely can't tell if you're just too eager about answering questions or if this is some very advanced shitposting.
>>138703958
it'll probably do 125% the damage of the ISS, and that's not factoring in that the ISS will be faster and use less stamina
so even with that huge disparity in AR, the ISS is probably the better choice of weapon
>>138703280
>Until the host is one hit from death, then I slit their fucking throat.
Preach
I cant stand hosts and phantom at the cursed greatwood who just run off to the side and fight adds nonstop, leaving me to solo the boss while I struggle to reach his sacks with my stabby rapier

Where do you get the key to the locked cells in Irityill Dungeon? I never found it.
>>138704185
how do you "trade" hits with somebody that can combo you like that? im pretty sure you're bullshitting me, desu senpai
does anyone know the location of the second coal to give to Andre?
Jesus christ why are all the useful miracles placed in the end of the game.
Do Aldrich faithful not show a notice when they invade?
I logged in, started playing, couple minutes later see a red-blue phantom with the title Aldrich Faithful. No message no anything.
Even thought it was an NPC for a while because he rolled and disappeared, didn't pop back up until five minutes later, would have kept thinking he was an NPC but he started lagging like a motherfucker and popping estus every two seconds so I checked players met and sure enough there he was, real person.
>>138704231

>>138704168
Does Hollowing even do anything besides making you ugly?
Pyromancer or QUALITY Knight for first playthrough?
If I go Pyro my only concern is what soul level I'll be at endgame and what kind of stat progression I should try and have. Should I aim for 30/30 Faith and Int by the end of my playthrough (apparently around level 80)?
And what kind of infusions should I use before I can get Chaos to get the most out of my build if I am primarily leveling Int and Faith? I'm reading that Dark actually scales with both, but how well? Maybe take a Fire Gem as my Burial Gift for the flat bonus in the mean time, I hear Fire Infused Longsword or whatever is good in the early game with no scaling stats. Until I can get a Dark Gem to Infuse with from one of the dark-snake-worm enemies in Lothric.
>>138703837
what's the best straight sword?
i wanna cheese and not use the uchigatana.
>>138703713
deprived is shit this time; you actually benefit from a decent shield early, the points in luck are wasted, and you start with MANY fewer points (even accounting for level). knight or warrior are a good start for most builds
>>138703732
i think it's that it gets bonus damage against unarmored enemies
>>138703737
you just need to learn his moves; he has a HUGE moveset. sometimes you want to dodge to his left, sometimes to his right. trying to parry is a mistake. it's like abhorrent beast in bloodborne.
>>138703824
might be, if he hasn't shown up yet
>>138703837
most everything's viable, straight swords are just easy to use for most fights

It forces you to use the drake sword equivalents instead of having fun with the mace or ceastus
Is the best place to farm titanite shards the High Wall? I'm going quality and keep finding a lot of fun weapons while running out of shards.
>>138703824
He moves to Rosarias place in the Cathedral of the Deep so you might be fine.
>you don't glow while invading/coop if you have the untrue dark ring on
fucking nice
>>138702872
I guess I never really saw the point in going for more HP because honestly so far I haven't been one-hit by anything besides giant-wind up attacks that could have easily be dodged.
Combined with the fact that one estus sip doesn't fully heal me anyway I figured: "fuck it, instead of getting hit 4 times and taking two sippies I'm gonna get hit 2 times max and then take one sippie to fill up again."
>>138704236
i rolled through a few attacks, then hit him.
sometimes he'd hit me, sometimes we'd trade, sometimes i'd hit him clean. i don't know what to say
>>138704376
>first playthrough
>knowing all this
>>138704317
Because magic stats seems to be a late game thing now.
>>138704376
You probably want to do quality and then respec into pyro since magic is just suffering early-mid.
>>138697092
>but you can't summon them.
>Why the fuck would you use this then.
Lets you know if there's anyone there to summon before you needlessly pop an ember and open yourself to invasions.
Its primary use though, as its always been, is to increase the amount of messages you can see, and some dev. ones as well.
>>138703910
I doubt From would put something as complex

I have 40 strength and my god damn A scaling upgraded great club deals less damage than barbed sword upgraded - no way I'm going to use anything but this boring sword in ng+
is the ithryll straight sword any good?
gimped by twinkling titanite or whate
>>138704616
Scaling on the Uchigatana is shit though, even sharp it's just B while many straight swords get A.
>>138704759
Don't you fucking wish, anon

>>138704734
>>138704846
Broadsword
>>138704734
Anything refined.
>>138704228
yeah im using a decent one
im just not having fun with this boss like i did the others
>>138704838
why can't you dualwield them? Just make one in each NG then wield one in one hand, one in the other ???
>>138704817
Anything slower than a longsword is trash in Stagger Souls.
I don't mean you can't use them, but finding a weapon that edges out the Darksword is hard.
>>138704846
Any straight sword, lucerne, mace, halberd.
When I try to run the game it goes at like 8fps, I can't click anything and I can't alt+tab. I think it might have something to do with my multi-monitor setup. Anyone else run into anything like this before?
>>138704846

Man, not even Pyro is viable for supplemental damage in early game PVE?
The whole point of wanting to do Pyro as opposed to quality on my first playthrough was the fun of collecting the Pyromancy Tomes and whatnot and clearly increasing my flame and general potential with it. I want to use Pyromancy not just respec investment into it mid-late game.

>instead of going down the spiral staircase in lythrill to meet priscilla
What are you talking about?
supposedly halfway through the game an NPC will let you reallocate your points so dont worry do much about screwing a build up
Wait, wait, WAIT a minute.
The PvP hotspot is Anor Londo, right? You can't be invaded unless the boss is still alive, right?
Does that mean that people are waiting until SL100-120 or whatever the meta is to fight Aldritch? I did him at LV50 and it was suffering. Is everyone doing that area at 120??
Is that why I saw only one summon sign the entire time?
Where the hell are they going before that? Dungeon? The 'game progress route' wiki says do Dungeon before Aldritch, so I don't know what to think anymore.

In dark souls 3 what is the pros and cons of getting the dark sigils from Yoel?
I'm level 38 at faron keep with a +3 weapon and I can't invade anybody. Am I too high? the 10+10% levels should mean I can invade anybody higher than level 26 and I think I was around that when I got here... But this place gives so many souls I think I leveled up too much.
I feel like daggers might be the best weapon type in pvp because of the fucking staggering
````````~~~~~Please respond~~~~~~~~';
Is there some sort of bug you can do that makes you unable to be hit with the uchikatana?
I couldn't hit this guy no matter what he did, he just kept attacking and you can't damage him even if he missed and you tried to punish. Had to alt f4
Why is Yhorm's theme so shitty? In fact, why was the only memorable theme so far from Abyss Watchers?
Also I just finished the pontiff in a suspiciously familiar cathedral, and I'm climbing suspiciously familiar buttresses guarded by suspicious familiar silver Knights with great bows.
Why are there Silver Knights in Ithiryll? What connection so they have with this Alderich feller I'm trying to hunt down?

There are literally zero mechanical or story drawbacks to using the dark sigils, the only thing that might butthurt you is hollowing, which won't be an issue if you weren't looking to make a pretty character anyway.

Kill the Giving Tree, and after the Deacons you go to another part of the Farron Swamp that leads you to the next Lord of Cinder.
>tfw you go to rosaria and still fugly
also is it just me or does a lot of armor give you broad shoulders/barrel torso regardless of what you chose in character creation
>invade 1 phantom 1 host
>stand on bridge opposite bonfire

You get infinitely stun locked in DS3, even DS2 pvp was better

Pretty much.
I love swinging around the winged glaive, but 7 out of 10 times I need something faster.
So which should it be? Or how about the drumsticks?
>>138706204

What are these called and where can I get them?
I'm making a super nigger invasion character that will be naked with a huge head. But I need a hilarious way to say nigger that wont be censored. Like porch monkey or fecal critter. any help?

After burning through like 7 fucking embers getting raped by him, I killed that dumb bastard without taking a single hit.
Great Machete greatest machete.
>>138705910
Does it change anything gameplay wise?
I thought Sirris was supposed to be dead after her quest. I finished her questline and got her items from the grave after she "died". Went and joined Rosaria's fingers and she appeared alive again in Firelink shrine saying she was my enemy.
Killed her for her armor since she was gonna turn hostile eventually anyway.
>>138705741
Get ready for a blast from the past.
The whole, 'converging lands of the lords' thing is a lot more literal than you think. The lands of the lords are literally getting closer together as the fire fades, my friend.
Between the shit camera, the fucking random-ass attacks, fucking mobs spawning, andmy badness, I hate the tree so much
>>138706320
This one always made me chuckle but it might be a bit far off what you're looking for
Why does Farron Greatsword have to have shit damage and shit hitstun. Move set is so fun to skate around but I feel like I'm doing nothing.
>>138706335
Happened to me too. Some guy was running with a katana at me, and did the running stab. Really easy parry for me and I parried him doing that once already. Except here I parried him then I was being backstabbed by him, like he teleported behind me for a backstab instead of going into ripostable animation.
I think he unlocked and ran behind me and backstabbed because I was standing there not moving. But the slight lag showed him hitting the attack button when he was still running on my screen, making him do the running attack for me. But actually he backstabbed.
>>138706278
Drang hammers, they're in the swampy part of the cathedral area, behind a post where one of the giants is napping.

>>138706471
It's a real bitch, but if you rush down his crotch weakpoint then it gets easier.
It helps a lot to have a ranged weapon, or even better, a weapon with an overhead attack, since some of his other weakpoints are hard to hit.
>>138698753
Monster Hunter bosses aren't hard, they're just HP sponges.

Welcome to the celebrated shitheap that is Dark Souls PvP.
>>138706742
I have a Great Machete that seems to work well
I ain't doin no ranged shit tho, smash'n'bash all day
>>138706862
It exists
>>138706862
Drake Sword of Dark Souls 3 that takes more skill to obtain.
Early game 'elite' weapon that isn't very good compared to other stuff you can work with.
>>138706838
It's to give freedom and incentive to infusions
>>138706559
>Boss weapon
That's why.
Rarely are they worth anything more than cosplay or gimmick builds.

Gettin' real tired of this shit
Patch when?
fire longsword +2 has been carrying me throughout this whole game so far. Just beat deacons.
>>138706838
Nobody would use infusions as much if the base scaling was far too opposed to the new scaling. For instance, nobody would turn an S scaling Dex weapon into a C scaling Str weapon with less base damage as well.
With base scaling on most weapons being underwhelming, they're inviting players to make the weapon their own in some way by infusing it to fit their style.
>>138706946
I love the Greatest Machete, but I like to keep a battleaxe on hand for stuff like the pepe tree. It's like the longsword for axe-users.

so im playing all of the time and im about halfway through the game (or at least it feels about half ive been going for a solid 10-12 hours) and im starting to feel like i did with the previous games. im having no fun unless im with someone else, is anyone else like this with souls games?
>>138707553
>2 consecutive stutter posts
Sloppy, my friend.
>>138707163
Their okay.
>>138707670
Yeah, I like to co-op and be co-oped with. But it's impossible to find help on PS4 from these mean bastards in this general. So much elitism, I just wanna have fun.
>>138707672
why sometimes there's a fogwall blocking me from exiting the firelink
>>138707670
The games blender moveset enemies being spammed at me in NotIzalith made me stop.
Theres only so much gangbang one person can take until every ledge has enemies drop down on you and you just need to take a break.

Does this happen to anyone else? I get such high anxiety that I can't do well in invasions. I'm gonna get gray hair this way. Been this way since DS1.

original poster here. wanna co op? im on literally all the time since im on my break from school now that ive finished high school.
Why is PC so fucking laggy compared to PS4.
Is it always like this? This is the first time I've played a souls game on PC. Online is fucking aids here. Parries don't work, phantom range out the anus, animations not playing everywhere, fuck me. It's so different to PS4.
How are the PC versions servers handled since it's "free"? Is it Valve's shitty free dota funded servers or something?
>>138708118
>finished high school

nice story, underageb&
>>138708118
I'm not on right now, but you can add me if you want. HarmonicGray
How do some fuckers summong 3 phantoms?
>>138708175
It's not like Sony are giving the PS+ money to Namco Bandai to buy servers.
>>138708179
>not being homeschooled and using the answer sheets they send you.
you did it wrong anon.
>>138708253
Their is an item called Dried Finger that they shove up their asshole so they can get another buttbuddy to gank invaders with.
It also allows an extra invader, but that never happens for me. I am constantly suffering.
>>138708175
>valve
>hosting servers for non-valve games
>thinking sony is throwing money at namco to maintain servers
that is not how anything works. Namco just doesn't really give a shit about PC. You get fucking banned in DS2 for using any kind of mod and DS1 is one of the worst ports I've played, it's pretty par for the course at this point.
>>138708043
My plan is take a longsword and spam the fuck out of R1 so it's pretty failsafe.
>>138708341
im on ps4 constantly getting a second invader while i myself am invading, but they always end up attacking me
>>138708423
What it probably is is that they anticipated more customers on console (which is correct) and have more servers for that. They underestimated its popularity on PC so don't have enough servers. We're probably being piped halfway around the world and back again just to play someone a few hundred miles away.

>Sunbro covenant makes your red sign soapstone look white
>Use Untrue White Ring to appear white
>Noobs won't realize you're supposed to be gold
Does this actually work or is this guy full of shit? He gets a couple people with it, so it seems like they might actually see a gold soapstone, but they'd still get the dark spirit message, right?
>>138708423
dark souls 2 sotf on ps4 sucks so bad, there's only 8 directions i can move in. felt so weird going from bloodborne to that game.
>>138708281
>>138708423
Actually, the PS4/Xbone versions piggy back off the network systems to lighten load and do all sorts of things, like the message system/ghost system is parsed entirely separately and doesn't interfere etc on PS4 afaik. They have stuff at their disposal in terms of PSN and Live features.
Same with Steamworks, which the PC version of DaS3 is hooked into.
Steamworks is just shit. From's servers are doing the bulk of everything on the PC side. Hence the rampant problems.
>>138708598
If you use the red soapstone while you're in sunbro covenant it appears orange.
>>138708043
I'm like that the entire game.
Obscuring Ring is the most fun thing to happen in videogames.
>>138708689
So the only indicator they have is if they know you're not supposed to be white (the ring) and the dark spirit notification?
Seems like it could work on the newest of players, but probably nobody else.
>>138708773
Doesn't it say the faction by their name?
>don't really use Yoel since I'm not a sorcerer and I didn't want to mess with getting the free levels since I figured there was some big downside to them
>come back a while later while I'm looking around for a new NPC
>he's dead
well I fucked apparently
>>138708753
Does it only work if you invade as a finger?
I tried using it as a purple and it didn't seem to work. people noticed me from a distance
>>138708341
Please let us invade non embered
>>138708823
It doesn't matter exactly. Getting all 5 free levels before he dies (it actually causes him to die) causes another NPC to turn up. That leads to another quest line and that leads to a certain ending that you may not have wanted anyway.
>>138708841
It works period. As a host invaders can't see you. As a co op summon, no one can see you.
It makes you invisible to any and everyone no matter who/what you are.
The best fun I had in the JP version was red tearstone ring + morion blade hawk ring bow snipes from across the map for 300 AR a pop.
Of course, they can see the buff effects on your person, like the red tearstone effect, so you have to put that shit away when they're close. Far off though they can't see that shit.
>>138708862
It would be cool if there was a covenant that could ONLY invade unembered people, but you got a lot less health as an invader of that covenant or something as a downside.
By the way, if you hate looking hollow but can't yet afford the cure thing, there's a ring that woman sells that makes you look human, like the DaS2 one.
>>138709017
That ring also doubles as the one that removes the phantom look in multiplayer.
It's essentially the Ring of the Living and Dead combined together.
Prince Lothric and his fuckbuddy have got to be one of the worst fights in this entire game. Broken-ass hitboxes, Lockon break into 85% damage/Instakill attacks, second phase with double the bullshit, it's completely garbage. You basically have to perfect the first stage, a boss who BASICALLY CANNOT BE LOCKED ON TO DURING HIS MOST POWERFUL ATTACKS, in order to even stand a chance in the second phase.
Whoever designed this didn't beat it by themselves, I guarantee it.
pls help i don't deserve this ;_;
>>138709176
torch anon, torch.
>>138709176
I got so pissed watching the bar fill and then refill 3 1/2 fucking times.
Wait... So if you buy any miracles from Irina, that Eygon guy will automatically come and take her away? I've even heard from a friend that he kills her although that might be a glitch.
If I'm going big and burly, what vit should I go for?
I'm at 15 right now, but I've found enough decent armor to know I'll need more soon.
mfw the random mob after the dancer is literally harder than the dancer
what the fuck
>>138709474
Only dark miracles cause that, you can avoid that by givings the dark tomes to another npc.
>Find Warriors Of Sunlight in the first real area of the game
>Don't find the altar until an endgame area
What the fuck, I have medals to cash in, man.
>>138709771
You can access that area early game if you want to anon. Just need to kill the lady in the chapel to trigger the dancer fight.
what is this guy talking about nana
>>138709846
But don't you also have to beat Dragonslayer Armour? I'm not good enough to even beat the Dancer that early, I'd wager.
>>138709846
she needed for anything useful otherwise?
>>138709731
Isn't there something about a quest to make her a firekeeper? Does that involve NOT giving her th tomes?
What is the best bow for a quality build so i can bully people with my obscure ring?
>>138710132
Dragonrider probably
It has the shield pierce WA
Make sure you have a simple offhand so you can spam it
>>138710023
Give her every divine tome, buy all her 'light' miracles. If you've given her a dark tome (londor or Deep) just dont buy any of the dark miracles and she'll become a firekeeper.
>>138710625
anon if i bought hexes from her am i screwed on all the future lategame light cleric spells?
The giant skeleton pimp slammed me then rushed at me, so I couldn't get the item in front of him.
Do I restart?
>>138706004
That pic is fucking great
Fuck this nigger. There is literally no way to beat this without getting lucky on patterns or having a second person. He can hit you through the pillars and swarm you with magic so much you can't dodge it all in his second phase, and a 2-hit combo is death, 3 if you're embered.
I will straight-up INF HP hack for this guy on my next playthrough. Artificial difficulty deserves an artificial solution.
>>138707291
Didn't I see you posting like three hours ago?
He's not gonna do it dude
>if you have a +4 Longsword you can only summon those between a +2 Longsword and +6 Longsword.
Does anyone know if this is true or not? Did FROM really fuck up this game again like tards?
>>138711740
I thought weapon matching only happened for pvp.
