any fun int scaling weapons in ds3? ,
loving the epic r1 spam longsword meta :)
I just beat DS3 and I have no idea what to do with myself now.

Any way to fix Failed to summon sign error?

Anyone else feel like sorcery is kinda underpowered in pve? I feel like I don't do shit damage to anything. The only boss I did decent damage to was the abyss watchers.
So
How does this game rank in the souls series

The NPC that kills the pigmy dude that dark lady Yulia, is that the same Yulia the Undead merchant from dark souls 1 yells "Yulia!" when you engage him in combat?
lorefag question above
having to kill the gargoyles over and over in profaned capital is ridiculous
>>138804047
The only meta is you're at 69% weight load and getting roll punished by them cuz of it.
Every single person who loses to straightsword/rapier spam has no roll distance and that's simply all it is. You literally have to roll twice before you even start to be out of range, but they're already back in range anyway because they run forward faster than you can dodge roll
>>138804081
If you're playing on Xbone quit to dashboard and reboot, worked for me.
dsg doesn't deserve a des op
if you look closely when the Soul of Cinder "transforms" his weapon the animation is the saw cleaver trick weapon animation lmao, miyazaki you cheeky cunt, after power within and ninja flips I half expected him to quick step as well.

The person from this webm, can you tell me your most up to date build? I get you're a pyromancer. What weapon/stats?
So is the great scythe OP again or is the rapier just shitty for skeletonland. Also when the fuck do I get my estoc. Or at least the respec lady so I can try out the Exile Greatsword

Ah I see. There must not be a connection to the ds1 male undead merchant. Was just curious because I've heard Yulia yelled a lot in ds1 because I usually always kill him for the Uchi super early.

Literally get good at parrying.
Does anyone know why my covenant icon looks like this? Is it because I'm hollowed out from those dark sigils?
Does the sword from Yhorm's fight work the same on other gaints or is it just scripted for the boss fight?
Anyone have 8 spare swordgrass? I can't get wolf summons. Can trade tongues or sunlight medals.
>>138804541

You buy the Estoc from one of the vendors, Greirat I think.
Respec is in the Cathedral of the Deep.
I gave the Firelink Shrine Maiden the Eyes of the Firekeeper, and declined the prompt that came up, but she's asking me to kill her. What does killing her do?
Is it true that the Darksign blocks you from coop when you reach 99 hollowing? I'm doing a coop run with my friend and i don't want that to happen, so i might just heal the Darksign asap.
>>138804881
As soon as I find one anon
So is it just me or does the new FP system render healing miracles totally pointless? You either give yourself more Estus to heal with, or you give yourself more Ashen Estus to have more casts to heal with
>>138804791
They're kind of too fast.
They need to be slowed down a bit to be comparable to other weapon speeds, IMO.
Not much, but just a bit.
Every straight sword in DaS3 attacks like twice as fast as das2 mundane broken straight sword and uses as much stamina. It's kind of bonkers.

No, all they have to do is lower the damage output.
Did they continue the magic falchion meme? Where can I find the magic falchion?
Why did they feel the need to remove armor reinforcement again? It allowed you to do Fashion and not be completely gimped on the damage sponge front. Now you have to wear more traditional armor to have decent mitigation. Why would they want to lessen the amount of equipment used?

>>138805649
I played 600 hours of BB and was bored of DaS3 week 2 of JP release. There's not actually much variety of things to do in this game.
There's either Quality/Pure Int/Pure Fai or Luck builds and only a few actual good weapons, all boss ones being total shit.
You could run an entire bloodborne build just for one weapon to master it. That's not the case here.
You level to 40/40, you use every weapon in the videogame as well as each other. R1 spam is king.
Is there any point of reversing hollowing? Are there any downsides to accumulating hollowing?

>regain system guides you to R1 spam city
>no equip load what so ever so you can carry an entire squadron of weapons and still flip flop like a butterfly
I could go on but it is easier to just say the good of the game lies in the atmosphere, the horror factor and the bosses, the rest is forgettable at best and shallow at worst, I would want to add that the Insight mechanic with frenzy is downright insulting to a real Lovecraft fan as you can't fucking put the incomprehensible madness of discovering the truth about old ones and condense it into a fucking glorified bleed bar and call it a day.

Fuck fuck FUCK I hate how you can still attack when people are talking to you
Not sure if anyone else knows about this or has posted it before, but I found a really great place to farm souls and some items.
It's in Farron Keep, Keep Ruins bonfire.
You simply run out from the bonfire and there are three goat people enemies, two with spears and shields, and one is a mage. Kill them, they drop Heavy Gems, Titanite Shards, Poison Gems, Wolf's Blood Swordgrass, and Rotten Pine Resin.
Drops are pretty damn ample, I usually get at least 1 item every 3 kills. Once you kill them the bonfire is right there so you just reset and continue. Probably get around 100k souls every 40 minutes or so.
>>138805796
I know, right? God help us all if this slow healing spell that can really fuck you up if used wrong was easily accessible.
Look at this shit! This is with 18 intel and 25 faith and a +4 pyro flame, for the record.
Before Warmth...

>One thing I still don't understand about the Souls series, is what determines who turns into ragdolls, and who fades away? Like why do the fat evangelist ladies turn into rag dolls, while the guys with the saws and wooden boards just vanish?
Aren't people who vanish Undead, not Hollow?
People who are completely hollow don't come back, they just sorta stay dead.
>>138805783
I really don't get it
You can't hide the fact you can damage the host, nor can you hide you get damaged by the host, pretty soon people are going to correlate purple with "will stab me in the back when I need them most" and will either outright ignore purple signs or summon purples with the intent on just murdering them as soon as they appear
People who aren't stupid will notice your sign is a purple sign if you have a ring to change it because despite the color of the sign it still describes the phantom as whatever it actually is

Does Yuria ever ask you to kill more than one NPC? Im thinking about just killing her now so I can get still get her stuff before I unhollow. Would that prevent Anri from showing up?

Guys.
Guys.
Is it just me, or is the Dancer armor actually really good looking? I just got done with the Dragonslayer Armour battle, went back to the Firelink Shrine and checked out it and Morne's Armor.
Oh, and why Smough? Why Smough? Why couldn't we get Ornstein's Armor from that fight?
>>138806994
I'm using the WKG and loving it so far
Shame that I can't upgrade it because I want to help people and fucking weapon memory
>>138807036
no but being a sunbro increases odds of a second red appearing
note that when you invade someone with 2 phantoms theyre probably killing a boss, you might want to wait if you keep getting those parties
>>138807169
Level looks nice
From populated it with shit enemies though
The knights are fucking cancer, with their "I'm going to keep front flipping at you until you run out of stamina" combos

I haven't really noticed a drop off. I've been getting 385 souls / kill for the better part of an hour now. I don't know if they dropped more when I started though. Already farmed 200k+ souls in a pretty short amount of time.

vordt's is, evil eye ring is not although I dunno if they stack
the two were practically made for each other though, and I've used it on at least one guy in every souls game
great for coop too since as long as you're killing trash mobs you'll be regening a good bit of HP per fight which means less need to spend your halved sippies
I already miss lifegems, they were great for healing chip damage that would be a waste to use a flask on

Farming dregs and tongues on PC was super fucking easy compared to JP. PC users put up way less of a fight or straight up alt f4.
I maxed out Rosaria's and Aldrich on day 1 for my build. Absolutely ecstatic.
So whenever I try to start the game, it goes to a white screen, then a black, then crashes. Is there anything that can help with this?
So i've been playing for 31 hours so far, mainly doing shitloads of funvading

I miss playing DaS1 for the first time again. It was so great to actually play a bog standard knight with a standard longsword for once, who didnt wield a 100-pound rectangular slab of metal as a weapon. Felt like the game set itself apart from everything else. Even DaS2 brought some feelings of joy from me especially doing a poison build with dual falchions. So why don't I feel anything for this game now?

>>138807648
with a simple shield you can spam swap since swapping into the simple shield makes it tick faster, its initially 5 seconds but just swap maybe two simple shield and you get your fp back really quick to use it multiple times
can only see it workin alright with invasions in certain areas where you can retreat to safety
but man thats disappointing
>>138807674
They're made and programmed to feel like actual entities, not geometry with animation files.

Well this is post-BB Souls. Things move faster and more animalistically in many cases. Going back to DS1, it's like things are politely strolling over to shake your hand but you just decide to stab them instead.

what happens when you max out rosaria's, I've got like 35 tongues put in and don't know how much farther to go.
also invading in the profaned capital is the most fun ive had in a souls game. Its got everything, plunge attacks on unsuspecting phantoms(with the invisible ring of course), narrow corridors for weapon art shenanigans, huge fucking gargoyles that wreck everything, enemy mages that spam fireballs and soul spear, and of course a toxic swamp with nightmarish spiderwoman :)

I love how DS3 has a shitload of minibosses, some of which can be pretty challenging in their own right, but only the real big niggas get the boss fog and health bar. Feel really good.
theres no way they are buffing magic
sorcery does so much damage if you use candlestick in offhand, dusk crown, x3 damaging rings for magic and also you can use more damage at max hp ring but i use thief ring to sneak up on people and 1 shot them
it scales up to 60 int so i just went full 60 no vigor because i just hide with thiefs ring and 1 shot people at this level

>>138807802
well good news for you, standard knight with longsword is the best fucking class in DS3 :)
so, lore-masters, is there any given reason that the hollows are turning into trees?

Ds2 really lacked in mini-bosses. Like Ds1 had the hydras, the boars, the gargoyles in Anor londo, that giant rat and the titanite demons. And Ds3 also has a bunch.

what did he mean by this
God damn everything is so aggressive.
DaS1 made a note to pause enemy attack patterns long enough to sneak in a heal and such but certain attack patterns are merciless with slim to no holes.
Puts even more pressure on the sparse estus and more reliance on PVP to kill your next red phantom.
It's beautiful.
>>138808214
the point is that there were plenty of bosses in ds2 that could easily just have been considered minibosses, but instead were given the fanfare of a full boss
like take the old stone demon, that would 100% have been its own boss in ds2 whereas its just treated as a normal mob in ds3.

how the fuck does that happen? gwyndolin has a fuck huge bow and can use illusions how did he get eaten by a fucking SLUG?
is he that much of a pathetic bitch?
So is DS3 PvP officially the worst of the series? Str seems to be objectively the best build so far. Magic is still and has always been garbage. Most of the Dex stuff seems like shitty meme weapons.

I think something mentions Gwyndolin being ill and the Pontiff swindling him and preparing him as a sacrifice.

STR is the best build period. Hyper armour > everything else. Combine that with a darksword to swap out and you got some OP fucking build.

Skeletons don't ever infinitely respawn any more. It's two kills maximum.
I'm hoping someone can help me without giving away the answer. I just need a light nudge in the right direction. I just made my way through the intended graves, got those eyes. I have all the Lord's except the one at the top, and that ludleth guy. In what direction should I be heading?
Hnngh... Boulder Heave or Havel's Ring?
Hey /dsg/, I'm a bit bored and annoyed in pvp with my pontiff curved sword and my broadsword. I'm just at the drowned forest. Any fun pvp weapon ideas for me?

I can usually get to the second phase without much trouble. Its just at some point during the second phase, I choke and get caught in his combos. I got him down to a sliver of his health at one point, but then I choked.
It might be because I'm physically tired from work. Or I'm a shit. Or both.
Anybody have that image of ds characters lining up and saying how one boss is easy but another isnt?
- Have no issue being summoned almost instantly through signs
- Have no issue invading through orb
- Not a single summon through auto-summoning covenants, with the exception of one wolf summon early on
What the fuck? Some special ports aren't forwarded or what's the matter? Whenever I am summoned in the forest, I always instantly get 1-2 forest invaders in host's world; whenever I invade myself, the host always gets a blue. So it can't be that there's no demand...
Also got my first cheater today - got summoned to the world where every mob runs in one place, but the host is moving, I can move too and he was summoning phantoms. He was invulnerable (my hits didn't register on him) but he seemed to not be able to hit me too, instead he kept summoning phantoms while I was backstabbing through him

>>138807035
You posted my favourite so here's my second.
Just started DS3, and got the uchigatana. Thought it came a bit too easily, so I googled to see if had been nerfed to the ground. There appear to be reams of people complaining about how hard the master is, and offering cheese ways to kill him.
I can't even comprehend what people must've been doing to die to that guy. Sure maybe once or twice if you have butter fingers, but if they found that hard, how did they even get past the first boss?

I would help you, but I accidentally spent all my SOULS levelling up after helping people kill that guy who killed Gwyndolin
>>138809461

>>138809461
I died on him about 5 or 6 times. I did the boss at the end of the High Wall on my first go without using an estus. That naked guy halved my HP in one hit and attacked relentlessly and fast as fuck.
I think it might be one of those gaming things where what he does is somewhat random so you can get different experiences. I've heard people saying that for them, he just rolled off the cliff. For me he was an insane berserker that wouldn't stop swinging.
I haven't really been in a /dsg/ since late 2012.
I know pretty much everything on DS1 but DS2 felt so bland to me that I didn't really look into its lore that much.
I just beat DS3 is there anything I should know on how it connects to DS2?

People have to be using way of blue.
To make Darkmoon work in DaS3, you have to low level to Anor Londo so you can then get all the way of blue activity in SL1-30 range at the start.
That's how I maxed it out.
People should really be wearing way of blue whenever they're not actively invading or cooping imo. Covenants can be switched on the fly, there's no point not to have it equipped to get bluebros to work.

You just have to parry, there's literally nothing else. If you have a weapon that can do a downwards stab, parry and counter attack. If not, parry and lock him in light attacks.
Maybe it was just me, but he seemed easier than the tutorial boss. I didn't really understand I was killing anything special until the drop.

It's fairly nice to get it first thing at firelink, scales well with dex, and give you an easy 2H parry.

When I first came to forest I was ~lvl25 and weapon +3. Right now I'm lvl39 and weapon +6, going through the cathedral, occasinally jumping to the woods bonfires to try and get summoned (am I getting it right that I need to be there in order to be summoned, like in Darkroot?)
Neither 25/+3 nor 39/+6 worked. However, when I wasn't using the wolf brigade badge and was embered before killing the boss, I got invaded almost instantly by them myself, so I'm definitely in the 'good' range

I think they should auto-equip the sigil thing for them. Newer players/bad players will just leave it on without noticing or understanding. If you really don't want help then you probably also know enough to take it off.

PC is the problem.
Your usebase cucked themselves on guides and wikis.
PS4 JP release was night and day in terms of activity. Every single area was flooded with signs and invasions of all kinds. Everyone arrived at the same areas at the same time together.
On PC everyone is farming, upgraded to +6 before leaving farron keep etc. It's fucking retarded.

If you haven't done it, go fight Crystal Sage and do Cathedral of the Deep first. Maybe you'll get some more levels and he'll be easier
>>138810243
>Every single area was flooded with signs and invasions of all kinds. Everyone arrived at the same areas at the same time together.

>>138810243
Not even that, I have a friend at same soul level and gear and he is getting invasions all day everyday. Summon signs and eyes work fine for me, but Blue Sentinels and Watchdogs haven't worked once over 12 hours.
>>138810327
What are you talking about? First of all, the ridiculous snake thing is incredibly parry unfriendly so that's an odd example to pick. Second of all, they attack in totally different ways so there'd be no crossover in understanding. Third of all, why the fuck would you even try to parry him? Just roll or strafe around him as he attacks.
>get spoiled on an image of gwyndolin being in DaS3
>it's actually aldrich wearing his fucking hat after eating her
what the fuck man. I thought Aldrich would just be an entire black blob monster like in the intro, or some malformed thing like Manus.

How to twink?
>>138810393
I played PC at launch too.
It was not the same, you just have no reference.
PS4 compared to PC was literally double the signs and invasions in every area. No matter what level, you warp somewhere and boom, shitloads of signs.
The area after Pontiff was absolutely insane. 6 man free for all all fucking day non stop in all directions.

Even if you don't parry he's easy to punish. Backstep when he attacks as his reach is shit, and then get a few hits him. might be slow, but doable.
>>138810508
You parry him for his first phase, it's 3 counterattacks to get him to phase 2. Way easier than rolling.
Snake phase is trivial anyway, so it's not worth mentioning. He's only dangerous in phase 1.
>>138810552
Spend 10 minutes learning how to parry, the games become a lot easier.

you do have really fun fights like Abyss Watchers or Pontiff but then you have all these shitty ones like Deacons of the Deep, that fucking tree or Crystal Sage
>>138810323
you sound frustrated
>>138810476
could've fooled me
Someone explain the endings for me please.
Link the fire is obvious.
The second ending I dont understand, you let the firekeeper take the first flame/take it yourself, what does this accomplish? The same as refusing to kindle like in DS1?
Lord of hollows ending, also dont understand. Why are there two Yuria's at the end and what exactly happened to you? Also apparently Anri isnt dead even though you stabbed her in the face?
Who designed these quests, and were players even meant to experience them? I've broken ALL the quests I have just playing the fucking game, exploring and everything. Should I even care, at this point, of salvaging them, or should I continue on frustratingly alone?

I get the feeling you don't have much of a history of interaction with other people. The concept that things work differently for different people seems to totally elude you. The first phase of that boss was, for me and for many other people, ridiculously easy and not even slightly challenging. It's when he turns into a giant snake demon thing and starts writhing all over the place with no logical way of knowing what he's doing next or what his hitboxes are that people start having problems. Of course, some people had no problem with either phase. It was different for different people.
The timing on parrying is totally different for each enemy, there's no "learn it in 10 minutes" thing. Certain enemies delay their attacks, have slow windups, some moves can't be parried at all. Make a webm of you parrying all one of those snake monsters attacks - there are more in High Wall - and show it us. I want to see how easy you make it look.

>>138810823
and I'm still saying, it's nothing like it was on PS4. Not even remotely close to being the same.
Many of the games areas are dead as shit already. On day 1 I was never invaded once in the area after pontif, yet on the jp version it was unending.
I've been random invaded maybe 5 times on PC my entire playthrough. PS4 it was well over 50 at least.
This game feels like ass on PC and it's pissing me off. Lag out the fucking wazoo, animation bullshit in multiplayer. Going back to PS4 because this version will be dead in a month.

WHY ISN'T HE HERE? IS THIS THE WRONG PLACE?
I'm playing DS3 for the first time and I remember seeing a webm here some weeks ago of a weapon that gives you a sheevspin, and I want it badly. Can someone identify a name or something for me please?
I'm at 18/18 dex and str, I've got to choose between the farron greatsword and the wolf knight sword. Is farron good in practice?
>the fucking skelenginton level
what the fuck. The bleed the scimitar guys deal is way to fucking much, and their attacks eat up way too much stanima to block.
On top of that they have about five different moves, and their "combos" have random lenghts between 3 and 5 strikes.
Made it to the skelington boss. Some kinda black mist just inta-killed me before I knew what was going on.
It figures I guess. The "lol actuall skelingtons" level was a shit-show in ds1. Might was well be a piece of shit in this game too.
I never gave the sorcery trainer any books because I never found any. Now he's gone because...I suppose he was tired of waiting?\
Is he just gone until NG+? Any way to bring him back?
this shit seems to happen every time a red invades after a purple
So why exactly was poise removed from players? Enemies still have it in addition to it stacking on top of their hyper armor. So why did players get shafted?
I'm assuming it's because the game relies HEAVILY to the point it would be broken if fast enemies that swarm you weren't capable of stunning you with their lightest and fastest attacks. It just strikes me like poise being removed was a result of it breaking their game design and their incompetence and inability to design around it.

>Sirris
You mean that Paladin girl, that conveniently showed up the very moment I joined Rosaria's Fingers, and said "Fuck you, I'm going to kill you if we meet outside this place"? Must have been a nice questline, what with how clearly it tells you when you fucked it up.
Also, I don't know how the item descriptions for alcohol or named bones are supposed to dictate where to go to find what they're used for. By the time I remembered there was a guy in a cell and that the Cell Key wasn't JUST for the Darkwraith at the bottom of the tower but ALSO for the other cells in Lothric High Wall, I had already given Pickle-Pee and Pump-a-Rum Loretta's Bone.
Also, what about the quests that don't throw any items at you? What was the sign that said that Horace wasat the bottom of the pit in the Catacombs which led into the Chaos-Infested Ash Lake?
I don't understand the mental gymnastics I'm require to perform to understand these quests.

Still I really want the SKSS and SKS, i loved them in DaS1.
Just started with DS3 and I'm stuck trying to kill some guy outside of firelink shine with the samurai sword thing who moves a sonic speed. That huge mutant dude before was much easier than this shit.

>By the time I remembered there was a guy in a cell and that the Cell Key wasn't JUST for the Darkwraith at the bottom of the tower but ALSO for the other cells in Lothric High Wall

>>138811162
I didn't parry the snake at all, I just hugged it, and rolled on the arm sweep, rest of it was just circle walking.
Whilst parries are based on the attack (and what you parry with) the principle is applied fairly consistently, and with a few exceptions, after seeing an attack, you should have a fairly good idea where in its swing you need to parry.
Even if we discount parrying from one's skillset, the master doesn't strike me as being very difficult. The reach of his attacks is still short, so if you have anything but a dagger you should be fine. Similarly, it looked fairly straightforward to roll through them. It just boggled my mind that, of all things to find difficult, people were getting stuck there.
So I just beat Alderich, and now I'm really not sure where to go
yhorm is so hard ;_;
>>138811710
why did you post an irrevelant image with your post?
Can someone explain the point of Mound-Makers co-op? It just seems like a massive gimmick. Why would you ever need to kill enemies in the host's world if you're going to kill them anyway? You're going to have to kill them at some point so it's not like they have no idea that you're planning to fuck them over. and if they attack you on sight then it just turns into regular PvP.
Invading sounds exactly like regular invading, except you don't have to be on the lookout for enemies since they're not hostile. You also can't backstab them during a boss fight because it sends you home, so what purpose does Mound Makers serve? Am I missing something?
I hate this game so fucking much why is it so much harder than the past 2 games fucking fuck fuck FUCK. Bosses always have to finish an 8-hit fucking ultra combo before it's safe to attack and even then they can still hit you. FUCK HOW DO I BEAT THE PONTIFF
>>138811739
Try the other side of firelink, not that door.
>>138811480
I first found the masked thief, then I found the key and since it mentioned a cell, I immediately associated it with the thief that was locked up. After freeing him, he told me to go give the blue tearstone ring to Loretta. After finding her bone in the undead settlement and giving it to him, he became depressed and is still depressed as shit. I don't know if his questline is finished or not. So far it has been quite easy.
The key to the elevator that takes you to the darkwraith is given to you later.
So what enemies drop titanite slabs? The game's given me three so far.
>>138811764
Run past him and grab the sword near his throne, use it's special while 2-handing it. Charge it fully (2nd phase of it) and then release the attack on yhorm repeatedly.

how is that not the only strat unless you feel like doing 100,000 points of damage at 50 damage a swing
You know, I'm actually completely opposed to the carebear friendly invasion changes they made. But, fuck the faggots, they completely earn the hate they get by always using the cheesiest bullshit tactics, and only whining when the scales tip against them. Reds only fucking invade past Pontiff and other shit holes where they can abuse the AI to not end, and wait for other reds.

His purple copy shows you what move he's going to do next.

Just how much fucking stats do I need to make a boss weapon do any damage? This c and d scaling shit is fucking worthless. My fucking +3 raw longsword is doing more damage than Pontiff's +3 UGS.

I must have forgot about the encounter. If I could have talked to him, I might had remembered the character, but at the time, I was thinking "oh, guy in cage, fine" and forgot five minutes later. Plus, I'm afraid that sometimes I'm a bit too deep into things to read item descriptions, like something is going to jump out of the shadows and gank me. It's nice that this game does that, but it sure does make me too paranoid to stop and smell the roses.

Siegward is next found in a bind in the Cathedral of the Deep. Trapped down a well just outside the Cleansing Shrine bonfire chapel, you need to recover his full Catarina armor from Patches and give it to him there. Do so and he’ll teach you the Rejoice gesture and venture on to Irithyll Valley.
Meeting Siegward in Irithyll Valley is rewarding, as he grants you the Emit Force miracle, another gesture, and, should you send Greirat to pillage Irithyll while Siegward is present, he automatically saves the little thief from death. You can find him resting by the pot of Estus Soup in the kitchen just above the sewers.
Finally, in Irithyll Dungeon, you find Siegward in another bind. He’s been captured and locked in a cell. Find the Key to unlock and release him. This is well rewarded, because Siegward gives you a Titanite Slab for your efforts! If you help Siegward through all of that, he’ll be able to return the favor when you go against Yhorm the Giant at the end of the Profaned Capital. After the battle, you can return to Yhorm’s room and retrieve the full Catarina Armor set from Siegward, as well as a second Storm Ruler sword, and his shield.

How do you parry? I don't consider myself a bad player, I've played through all the PC Souls releases and got through them all with minimal summoning but fuck I can't get parrying down, and in DaS3 it seems even harder to do.
>>138812638
oh, i was a bit vague. I mean in Irithyll Dungeon, those hags with the soldering irons. They turn red and if you stand near them you just start losing max HP rapidly. They're okay on their own but there's about 4 of them and I can't kill them all in time without getting rekt.
I did end up just running back and forth to draw them out individually, and then waiting for my health to come back. it was insanely tedious
>>138812535
Just got the Darkblade and it wrecks most people I've faced. It's move set includes some hold and pivot attacks that catch people mid roll and break their blocks. Really liking it.
>>138812728
If you kill a boss before sending Siegward to Irithyll yes, Greirat is going to die.
Anyway just opne the main door of the Cathedral of the Deep and check the well again.

I know some of these faggots have been from here, too. Why do you just roll spam? Does this work on shitters or something?
This game cannot be serious right now

Can I make a spellsword in DaS3? I want to melee, have a good roll but also be able to fling spells at shitters. Is that something you can do, or would a lack of focus gimp my shit?

Fuck so that's how you do it. In my play through sieg wasn't in the kitchen though

Fix your internet, you fucks.
>>138812732
cheers buddy, I didn't know the drain couldn't kill. I'll stock up on Kukris next time
this area is pretty spooky. I'm usually alright when it comes to jump scares, but I never expect it in a Souls game and every screaming corpse has gotten me every time
>There is more bloodstains in this area alone than any boss i've fought
>>138812927
run past it and stand behind the rock near the fog gate; the one closest to the fog gate. the avelyn will kill it for you
>>138812859
>If you kill a boss before sending Siegward to Irithyll yes, Greirat is going to die.
As in if I beat a boss after sending Greirat but haven't sent Sieg? All I've done in Irithyll is get killed by a dog, can I send Sieg now and it'll be fine?
>>138812875
roll spam works for every boss and normal enemy, I assume it works for pvp too.
So, question. Does fire/pyromancy work like it did in ds2? Meaning I need both int and faith for it or does it scale up no matter which one I level?
>>138812927Hide behind the rock at its back.Let the ballista kill it.
THIS GAME CAN NOT BE FUCKING SERIOUS RIGHT NOW
>>138813089
>Didn't think of using the ballista
>Already turned it off
hey guys, im fairly new to the souls series and have a question about a weapons scaling. I recently got the Dancer's Enchanted Swords and wanted to know the best way to scale them up. The description says they are buffed with dark and fire magic, so should I level up int/faith to use them most effectively?
>>138813015
Its times like that that I'm glad my sword hits pretty much anything in my general area.

I'm SL82. Is that the average level for Grand Archives, or am I ahead or behind? No summon signs at the first bonfire, and summoned quickly at Dragonslayer Armor.
What's the largest quantiy of souls you've lost so far, /dsg/?160k here

>>138813354
Yes, I cannot hit them while they're roll spamming. People run out of stamina, anon.
>>138813693
It's almost like invasions are non-consensual and they don't want you there
>>138811057
Dear god I've done that so often.
Their bosses lag so much I just wail on them without them making a move and win.

Dark Souls invaders, everyone.
Just hit a wall and got burnt out repeatedly fighting Pointiff.
Everything else seemed pretty normal so far, but this fucker is smacking my shit up. Am I the only one having trouble with him? any advice?
>>138810892
I imagine that was discovered on someones second playthrough, trying to skip the scene followed by sudden horror.
>>138813861
>being this entitled
invasions are a part of the genre, retard. you consented to them by playing a game that features then and then using an ember to play online.

i agree. dieing is part of the genre and you should not be upset in the slightest if you ever die. you should welcome and embrace dieing because the genre is all about preparing to die many times
>>138814227
Oh, thanks. How do I get past the dragons in lothric castle by the way? Should I really just go for the dash and hope for the best?

>>138814478
I don't know.
>>138814165
You do realize your retarded argument works both ways, right?
You agreed to get camped on a bonfire and R1 spammed as soon as you invaded someone. Stop being a salty little shitter and git gud. If you're dying to r1 spam, learn to parry
>>138814438
you mean the ones in actual lothric castle or the one in high wall of lothric?
in high wall, run past it
in lothric castle, as soon as you get on the bridge, drop off the left or right side.
>>138814037roll
>>138814439
I don't really want to summon on my first playthrough, anon.
>>138814626I'm trying pepe
Being invaded is pretty much attempted rape if you think about it
If you don't ember (leave your house) to summon phantoms (socialize) you don't run the risk of being invaded by a red (meeting a rapist) and getting killed (raped) by them
The Host (rape victim) doesn't want you there, doesn't want you near them, and most likely has a few friends (yellow/white/blue phantoms) to protect them from you
It's a perfect rape analogy
>>138814572
Yeah I noticed where I was supposed to go, saw the stairs in the distance. Thanks anyway bruh.
>>138814897Try harder
please dear god help me with dancer
i've died 47 times, summons are shit and die instantly
So in the Smouldering Lake, is the corpse of the Fair Lady or Quelana who went spider from fucking with Chaos Flames?
>>138813049
Yes and yes.
But don't explore the Profaned Capital or the dungeons after sending Siegward in the boreal valley.
>>138812096
>squidward fucks off for that NG cycle
actually, I found him at his next quest point.
I guess it just skips over that other part if I kill pontiff. Or kill pontiff before I even give him his armor. Lucky me.
>>138815140
>i've died 47 times, summons are shit
Sounds like you're the shit one.
>>138814037
What pepe said is 100% correct. what weapon are you using? how much stamina do you have? do you have the cloranthy ring?
I beat pontiff on my 2nd try with this setup. had the cloranthy ring and 2handed my raw astora straight sword +3 I'd roll into him when he did his fire sweeps and waited for his combo to finish then got in 2~3 hits in. his 2nd phase is a lot easier cause the purple clone telegraphs what move the main body will do so you just have to dodge the shadow and then him and you can get dmg on him. dont go for the shadow just go straight on pontiff. it's a bit nerve wrecking but dont rush it he will go down just make sure to roll thru his attacks.
Also i did it without summons in non ember form.
>max out endurance
>win every single 1v1 in PVP because I can R1 them into oblivion with my darksword, even if they block

pls respond
>>138815521
>I play with straight swords
You might as well just load up CE and give yourself 99 in all stats, it makes no difference.
Alright, what's the best PvP cheese and how do I use it? I'm done trying to make a neat looking invader because everything's a 2v1 or worse. If I need to play hardball, I'm going to.
>>138815629
Yup. with a shrieving stone or something. Or you can just override the infusion with another infusion.
>>138815543
>Literally being a standard enemy
Best tactic
>>138815658
So i should just gimp myself so you are happy with how i play? Thanks for letting me know!!
>>138815697
Pick Astora UGS, equip Leo Ring, have fun.
>>138815740
It's actually really great because you know it pisses people the fuck off. It's literally the most mindless strategy in the game but it'll win you more invasions (or defenses) than anything else will. It's like losing to a single move spammer in a fighting game.
I put 200 hours into this shit game when does it get better? Do you think I could get a refund? Ive not enjoyed a moment of this trash.
>>138815859
No, I was just pointing out that your advice doesn't hold any value, because you are using a weapon that allows you to steamroll through the game without putting any effort whatsoever. Doesn't have anything to do with me not liking your playstyle.
>>138816096
>200 hours to decide whether you liked it or not
Even if this is bait anyone who did that doesn't deserve a refund

speaking of which, has anyone gotten a CE working yet? I am not going to want to play through this shit fifteen times for pvp shenanigans.
Oh god why are there so many skeletons?!
Nobody said there would be this many skeletons.
Is herald best starter class?
>>138816101
literally all weapons will do the same thing in this boss. You roll into him while he attacks and then you attack when he recovers the only difference is how many hits you can get in on pontiff.
Does the straight sword give you more iframes more health more anything? no even the r1 spam is no help against pontiff cause a long sword will not stagger him so that hur dur no effort thing is pretty dumb.
if you really want the hurdur no effort steamroll just use the dual hammers and stunlock him.
>>138816847
erm in what way? if you are completely starting out can should pick a knight since his comes with nice armor and a nice shield and weapon combo. Plus you can add a point to faith and buy a talisman and heal aid right after the tutorial boss.

>>138818727
It's advisable for PvP, even if you're consistent at dodging you can't do a great deal about phantom range thrusts or phantom range R1 slashing, or chip damage should you try to block an infused weapon under said circumstances. That said, Vigor really should come after offensive stats

I'm gonna end up backtracking all the way to get it, since otherwise it means those levels from Yoel are wasted and to get it in another playthrough I'd have to get another 5 levels.
