I don't get it. Why in the fuck are daggers so fucking useless? Even the Mail Breaker with it's 130 critical does fuckall extra damage on ripostes and backstabs. The increase is so marginal that it would simply have been better to use a weapon with higher base damage.

Why do they insist on fucking anything that isn't straight sword?

Why put so many shields if you're going to make them useless because >muh BB anime combat?

Why put so many miracles if they can't deal as much damage as a fucking straight sword R1

Why the fuck do spells like heal drain your stamina completely? Wasn't FP taking estus slots and long ass casting times enough of a nerf?

Why put any sorceries when they're even worse than miracles and even lack the support?

Why put dark sorceries and pyromancies when they can only be accessed by an NPC towards the end fo the game and they suck anyway?

Why put poise when it does fuck all and you get stunlocked by R1s and the only "poise" that matters is ultra R2 hyper armor?

Why is everyone twice your size? No seriously even the fucking hollows are twice your size, and the fire keeper is slightly taller than you, like the doll from BB, were they this fucking lazy that had to copy paste the humans transforming into beasts from BB and the doll? How does this make any sense in the DaS universe where hollows, being humans and not gods were always shown your size and the fire keepers were too?

Why are there so many gimmick bosses and the ones that aren't are trivial, with the exception of Nameless king?

Why are there so few weapons that end up sharing movesets and even the fucking weapon arts, the main feature in combat of this game?

Why are there so many reused assets? Isn't this thousands of years later? At least Dark Souls 2 had a shitload of new items, this one seems to reuse more than it introduces, the goddamn kirk armor still has the roll bug from DaS 1, how is this even remotely acceptable for a 60 euro game?

Why does every enviorment look the same like in BloodBorne?

Why are there literally BloodBorne characters and items like Abyss watcher? What the fuck I thought it was Gascogne for a moment, wasn't aware I was playing Dark Souls X Bloodborne.

No seriously, how is magic even remotely acceptable as it is? Did they playtest this thing? How did this get through QA?

Why would you farm souls? You don't need to farm souls ever in this game. If you want them badly, put your sign down at Grand Archives, get summoned and run the host through it. You'll leave with way too many and maybe realize you don't even need those souls if your build is already finished for its offensive stats.

What the actual fuck.

I invaded some guy with two sunbro phantoms.
They both died and me and the katshitter host dueled it out for a while.

All of a sudden the host black crystal'd and disappeared in front of me.

I thought I was bugged and then stuck in an empty world but a red invader popped in and the some phantoms were summoned (the same two from before) and the host was back with them from the bonfire.


What the FUCK happened?

>Assassin didn't spawn so Anri was helpless
>>
>Use Uchi with fire weapon Pyro for entire game because the following weapons all turned out to be complete fucking ass
>Try out Pontiff Scythe
lolno your special now allows your scythe to apply 1/20th of someone's debuff bar as frost. Only have to hit them 20 times consistently without breaks so that the bar doesn't refresh almost instantly
>decide to try out Manikin Claws because not at the point for normal Claws, yet
lolno enjoy R1 spamming winning every single trade and your backstab animation being fucking godawful even if you manage to take advantage of even the slowest weapons in the game, and even then you can get, at most, two hits with an L1 before they're allowed to roll and wait out your bleed stacking by just spam rolling/sprinting/chugging and claws can do nothing at all about it
>decide to try out Pontiff Sword
Well at least we gave you a decently fast moveset even if it's short as fuck, and your special does less than your normal R1s, but hey, at least your apply frostbite at the same rate as the scythe, thank god it's such an amazing debuff worth the buildup (protip it's not, so underwhelming for something that takes so long to build up and so, so, so few weapons can apply it)
>Welp, last straw, might as well try out the Demon Gauntlets
lolno, by the time your special's animation even begins any R1 spamming retard could have hamfisted that magical button and won the trade instantly, and the only upside for the weapon is that the special finisher at least looks cool, not that it does anything at all, can't even poise through the bullshit like Cestus

Doesn't help that every time I invade or get invades, it's some retard with the same weapons and pyros with two gank buddies, sometimes a third if I take long enough to find the fucks. Can't even attempt to test the weapon without asking for duels and still getting ganksquaded

They're faster and can be used rapid fire, but the point of the kukri is the lethal damage ON TOP of the element of surprise. Knives don't have the firepower to seal the deal and by the time you throw one they'll expect the rest; effectively making them useless. You want to decapitate them before they realize what's happening.

If I can't find the host, I find where he's progressing to and sit there in his way until he decides to stop hiding.

I've wasted a lot of time doing this, but fuck these guys they're going to either fight me or turn of their game.

Currently a mostly dex build. I've been using the uchikawaiitana since I got it at the god damn start of the game. It's a good weapon but I am BORED of it. Unfortunately most of the other dex weapons I have are not very good.

What fun to use weapons do you all recommend? I'm open to respeccing as well if that'll open up more fun/viable playstyles.

Completely agree. I've been avoiding pvp so far in my playthrough, since i've always found dark souls pvp to be fucking terrible.

This build is designed to get 69.x% max carry weight for optimal rolling, I don't think a low weight flynn's build would work with such low base health. Also, Flynn doesn't give very much even with just sword/shield.

I haven't tried lloyds, but I'll give it a shot. It might be too heavy though, this build has fairly light rings currently
>>
>>138964363
weapons with gud innate str scaling -> heavy (broadsword, etc.)

weapons with gud innate dex scaling -> sharp (scimitars, rapier, chinkswords)

weapons where you are not really sure and they are kinda good at both -> refined (quality build then)

Now that the dust has settled, rank the Soulsborne games:

1. Bloodborne -- Miyazaki's artistry at its highest
2. Dark Souls -- still the most solid of the Souls games, with the richest lore, the best bosses, the best music, the best level design, the best variety of weapons (no rehashes), the best enemy design and overall the best everything
3. Demon's Souls -- may have been the first game, but it's the one that feels most dated
4. Dark Souls 3 -- everything feels "okay" but no special or truly awe-inspiring moments
5. Dark Souls 2 -- rushed, downgraded, broken in so many ways

That'd be because you're comparing a release Souls game to one that had patches constantly to sort of fix how fucking broken the other game was for PvP. And if you'd seriously go back to DaS2 PvP where you don't have a full orb, I'd be surprised.

When DaS1 released, its PvP was even worse than it is right now. When DaS2 released, it was a rolling parry monastery scimitar meta with hexes that could potentially one shot someone, a Defender's Greatsword that was clearly overpowered and no Agape Ring meaning people who did win in PvP would eventually be pushed out of range of someone else and upwards until they had no reason not to invest in soul level for the sake of leveling their stats, because SL wasn't a matchmaking factor in invasions. You are now in another release-period Souls game where the PvP is imbalanced as heck, but at least it functions unlike DaS1's for half of its life

There's a "Minimum Angle" sort of value in the camera param that says how low your camera can go. I set it to the same as the Maximum Angle, so it is stuck looking down, and increased the camera distance.

It's supposed to replicate arcade style topdown action games.

DaS3 is the first game in the series that gives me the same feelings as DaS. With a handful of fixes to pvp and some tweaks to how effective meme strats like r1 to victory are, it will match Dark Souls.

Its peak was when the game was at its worse state of balance. Its "peak" was before several patches nerfed stuff for balancing reasons. I'd say the most memorable time of DaS1's life was pre-Artorias of the Abyss, soon after the console release.
Not because of the console playerbase, but because it showed From didn't know what they were doing with it when they had a bugged Crystal Ring Shield, sorceries that could one shot you (I mean they did this same shit again in the DLC when they added the dark sorceries, but sorcery and pyromancy were overpowered at release) and the mix of dragon head abuse, dragonbow stabbing, Stone Greatsword's TWoP applying a DoT if they buffed it, TWoP in general and a bugged Strong Magic Shield.

DaS1's peak to me is just a series of blunders, then the patch to fix all of that came and broke summoning, so the western players didn't even get the fix for a couple of weeks after Japs "got it" because they kept breaking Japanese summon signs with every attempt to fix it.

Except it didn't because it has no diversity. You say it does it properly because it has set weapons that dual wield, whereas DaS2 let you dual wield and have a left-handed moveset that wasn't just "block or L2" like DaS1's. Had they simply removed powerstancing, there wouldn't be an issue. But no they went back to DaS1 left-handed movesets, and it's something even Demon's Souls was better at

Anyone who says DS3 is easy is only saying this because they have like 100 hours in DS1 and are very used to their own tactics of success

Prove me wrong. I have a bunch of friends who started with Bloodborne who are currently struggling with DS3, it's kind of funny.

He disappeared from Firelink several hours before I actually beat Yhorm. I ran around Firelink looking for him, he's nowhere.

Oh, fuck you. There's plenty of dual weapons to choose from in Dark Souls 3. Meanwhile, power stancing in Dark Souls 2 not only almost always gave you the same moveset, but it was usually shit. Consumed a shit ton of stamina for little damage gain.

>>138966382
No, you're pretty much right. A lot of fights in Souls games can be related to ones from previous Souls games. If you're comfortable with the very first version of a fight that a game introduced, you'll generally have an easy time with any boss in another game that acts similarly. This is why fights like Vordt were one shots for me. But fights like Nameless King floored me for a while.

1. Artorias of the abyss - Classic bosses, classic designs, a fitting and triumphant dlc for dark souls 1, standout moments include hawkeye gough - kalameet, manus in general and artorias
2. Old Hunters - Ludwig and orphan of kos are extremely good, the rest of the bosses didn't entertain me as much, but the fishing hamlet and research hall areas were pretty great, standout moments include ludwig and oprhan of kos
3. Dark Souls 3, the only game in the series where my enjoyment started out great, and only got better, the best level design and probably the best main game bosses when I look back on it
4. Dark Souls, the interconnected world design is unparalleled in the series and works extremely well, while one or two of the later game areas falter, the rest more than makes up for it with interesting, interactive level design and monolithic bosses
5. Bloodborne, while I felt the game's second half is a dull tedious slog through disappointing area after disappointing area, I won't deny the combat is buttery, if locked at 30, the aesthetic is consistent and the world very realised, still besides central yharnam - amelia, ebrietas and gehrman, there was very little in bloodborne I actually cared about, I felt the eldritch twist was never really taken advantage of, the nightmare areas in particular are some of my least enjoyed in the entire souls series.
6. Demons Souls - I never really enjoyed the PvE content of this game that much, most of the bosses were relatively uninteresting mechanically and visually, and I despised the musical score for a lot of them, which can be described as weird farty noises, although there were standout tracks.
7. Dark Souls 2, up until dark souls 3 this had my favourite pvp, otherwise from that, the base game is disappointment after disappointment, with the darklurker now superseded by pontiff sulayvahn, even that boss is now irrelevant, there's little I enjoy about most of this games content, but the DLC is pretty great

I don't get why anyone would claim DaS1 bosses were better than 3's. At best you could claim some are slightly more original, but that's a given since it's the original DaS. DaS3 is a better game with better bosses and greatly improved controls over both 1 and 2.

Seriously, what was Miyazaki smoking when he approved about half the bosses in this game?

Like, for what fucking purpose do you design such a beautiful dragon and have us kill him in one hit?

For what purpose do you put Yhorm front and center in all of your advertising only to give him 30K HP and make the only way to kill him is using Storm Ruler?

For what purpose is Crystal Sages? The area leading to Crystal Sages is 10000 times harder than the boss himself.

Any Thrusting Sword + Royal Dirk in which Royal Dirk acted as a straight sword and gave you a moveset to compensate for any thrusting sword's lack of an arc

Use this example several times over and see that the left-handed weapon could always compensate for what the right hand lacked. You even had DaS2 include a funny little bug with powerstancing where you'd swing much quicker than usual, hence the webms we had

>>138967163
Are you illiterate? No, blocking with L1 isn't dual wielding. If it was, it'd be a thing here, but it's only here because of the designated dual wield weapons. Next time read what you're replying to. There is nothing comparable between the left hand movesets of DaS2 and the left hand MOVE of DaS1

People keep saying Wolnir was easy but he is, so far, the only boss I've had to do more than 5 times. I killed Abyss Watchers, Yhorm, and Alrich without much trouble, for reference.

For me the issue was the fog, though. I kept trying to go around him then getting sapped by the death mist or whatever. When he backs you up against the wall it's a little hard not to panic.

Pontiff's application of the darklurker's phase 2 is both more interesting, and more meaningful.

When the darklurker splits it's literally just two enemies, when pontiff does, it's a visual change, musical change, mechanical change etc.

It's just so much better in every single way, I can't remotely believe you honestly think that the darklurker fight is superior

People who expected the game to be hard after playing all the other Souls games don't really know what they're asking for. The only time i struggled with souls games was back when i played Demon Souls, because that was my first. After that it was really smooth. Did it hurt my enjoyment of the game? Fuck no. I blame the marketing for making "souls games are all about the challenge" meme.

It's not hard to make difficult boss fights. Take for example Watchers, his weakness is low health and no poise. Remove those two, add 5x more health, make sure he can't be stunned at all, and you got yourself the hardest boss battle in all of the Souls games. That's not the point.

Also DS3 is probably the most coherent of all 3 games, Dark Souls couldn't keep up after Anor Londo, Duke archives and Lost Izalith were awful, lazily designed areas. This one maintains the quality throughout. I'd say it is even more polished than Bloodborne. Shame about the lore though, feels like it ended with DS1, and everything after is just flavoring. You can't have it all i guess.

And finally, a vaguely underage looking waifu. Long time coming.

How the fuck are you supposed to survive/evade the arrow rain attack on Aldrich's phase 2? In phase 1 going behind his back was a blind spot for the rain, but it's not the case in P2, also lasts a lot longer. It's impossible to outrun, and it hits through the later non-invincible frames of any-% roll

Only managed to kill him because was running like mad to his spawn locations, often taking damage from fire on the ground, only to get close to him so he chooses other abilities

You just walk to his hand and hit it.
Then you walk to the other hand and hit it.

I'm not sure what the boss was meant to do at all to be honest.
He lifted his arm once or twice and tried to crush me, but it was predictable and easy to roll dodge without even seeing the hand.
He did some AoE fog shit in front of him, but I'm not sure why you'd be in front of him to get hit.

BRAVO FROMSOFT

What's the point in faith again? Why the fuck have I invested over 20 points in this?

All offensive miracles so far: shit. All of them do less than a single R1. Wrath of the Gods does LESS than a r1 despite needing a giant casting time.

Heals: useless. Pointless when you have estus.

Buffs: pointless again. Can't use lightning blade on most of my weapons. The blessing of the deep or whatever doesn't do anything noticeable and fades away very quickly.

Give me a single good reason not to respect right now.

Also what the fuck is this shit I've heard about poise being useless, that's all i've been discriminating in for armour I've chosen so far.

Let me guess, you are either

Otherwise I call bullshit, those bosses have more than 5 abilities that can't be expected and that one-shot or almost one-shot you unless you have a shield that requires 17+ str and/or very beefy armor/hp

I mean, getting to P2 of Abyss Watcher without knowing what the fuck is going on, when you die in 2-3 hits as Dex, will usually take at least 5 attempts, and then you have new patterns and fire after-shocks that _can't_ be expected and that _will_ kill you

Wolnir has two ways his fight goes.
Option 1: You break all of his bangles his under a minute and he dies a completely ineffectual bitch.

Option 2: He plays hardball and his bangles refuse to break. He vomits murderfog, summons skeletons and waves around a sword the Giant Lord would be proud of.

It's a huge problem that he is so incredibly variable, because it seems like most people are getting Option 1 and they don't get to see one fifth of Wolnir's attacks. I personally killed him on my first try because the fight went Option 1 for me and it wasn't until I saw the fight go horribly wrong in a speedrun that I ever knew he could do any of those things.

He has the same sort of problem as Pinwheel where there are all these extra mechanics to his fight that mean nothing because he dies before they're relevant.

The fight gets easier after phase 2 for pontiff.
He goes from a fast hitting, shield breaking badass to someone who literally gets another character to telegraph his attacks for him.

>I've got an idea, lets give him TWO horribly telegraphed jumps with 15 secs endlag and make the other copy telegraph them 3 secs before the boss does, leaving the copy behind the boss since he jumps first so the boss is wide open.
>Very good bob, have a promotion


Darklurkers using magic was a lot better since there were constantly changing things to dodge as the enemies used different combinations of attack.
Everything was telegraphed and dodging became the important part.

I have no pyromancy, all I did was hold up my twin dragon greatshield when he tried to spam magic then went in and hit. He honestly does not have that much HP. I've been helping people kill him. Quite an easy fight if you're able to dodge/block the arrow spam.

Well, I, as a person who had a Pyro with a Fire Longsword +4, needing ~19 hits to kill P2 Watcher, and 2-3 hits from him to die, spent almost 40-50 attempts on him (for referense, Pontiff took me ~20, Deacons 1, other bosses ~5-10, Aldritch ~15 and I still have no idea where/how to survive the arrow rain in P2 - had to fish for a pull without it being used at all), can't really understand how the fuck am I supposed to learn fights when literally any 'and what if I try that' ends with death, while a beefy class can survive and chug estus, halving the required amount of attemps.

Oh, I forgot to add that I remembered about reinforsing the flask only after Watchers - before that it was a simple +0 one, meaning any hit from P2 Watcher made me chug 2 times and still not have full HP (actually, most of my P2 wipes were because I TRIED to drink there, and it's a horribly bad idea because he gets you however far you might be located from him during your estus break)

one shotting people with great chaos fireball is pretty neat famalam, not to mention sacred flame fucking over anyone who tries to circle around you with a shield up.

Sure you wont hit every shot, but just the fact that one hit from you will utterly demolish the opponent, keeps them on edge and easy pickings for your melee weapon.

Pyromancy also trivializes PVE, except in izalith, which is pure hell since you need to go there to get the good stuff.

Dark souls 2 is objectively harder than DaS 1 because of soul memory. DaS3 is the single easiest and somehow still manages to be fun. Wasting time grinding for upgrade material for armor was never a good mechanic and never did anything good for the games as this isn't a game you should be spending tons of time grinding. Ever.

Completely blind, without knowing what the fuck is going on? I guess you're also Rotschild's son :^)

Because you WILL die at least once not expecting the second watcher to attack you, you WILL die at least once thinking that the third one is your 'full' ally and won't attack you, and you WILL die at least several times thinking you can drink estus in P2, not knowing about the fire aftershocks and not knowing that you can't roll back from the swirl attack in P2.

Yeah but if you're doing dex you should be able to dodge. Were you just unaware that going hard in one stat is the way to go? Not judging just curious. I generally recommend starting the game either going completely STR or DEX unless you want to do a gimmicky build or really challenge yourself. But I learned that with the other Souls games since I fucked up my first PT of DS1 so hard with a shitty build.

I just did. Espada Ropera is a Thrusting Sword, it has nothing for a horizontal attack, or even diagonal, its attacks are all thrusts. A Royal Dirk has horizontal and diagonal hits, along with its own thrust. Royal Dirk would be able to hit someone in PvP that Espada Ropera was not capable of hitting because it's simply a linear thrust. You would not use it as your main source of damage unless you decided to two hand your left-handed weapon, you'd instead use it to compensate for the fact someone moving frequently could and would dodge a thrusting sword. Said Royal Dirk came out quickly enough that it could do this. While the Espada Ropera would punish many things by being a thrusting sword, and still give you a parry, the Royal Dirk gave diagonal swings to you. Something, again, the main hand would not have if you relied only on a rapier.

Alternating between two weapons was a consistent stunlock in belltower, one on par with two handing a katana and mashing R1, which also stunned most people with the average poise of the belltower from the first hit. Any case of a weapon and one with a longer reach was complimentary. Even the infamous Warped Sword didn't rely on powerstancing to be complimented by a second weapon, it just benefited from being powerstanced because of the unique moveset.

The DaS2 Broadsword was complimented well by left-handing any spear to compensate for its range when the invader would try to roll from it.

>Because you WILL die at least once not expecting the second watcher to attack you, you WILL die at least once thinking that the third one is your 'full' ally and won't attack you, and you WILL die at least several times thinking you can drink estus in P2, not knowing about the fire aftershocks and not knowing that you can't roll back from the swirl attack in P2.
lol? I'm not even that guy and I also beat watchers on my second go. phase one you literally just attack him. he has no hp and the adds aren't even a factor. i died to the fire aftershocks once. one time. since i'm not a mongoloid incapable of learning, i incorporated the ancient technique of dodge rolling after the fire slide. the boss was fucking easy. it was barely even a boss. it's okay that you had trouble on it, but to say that you WILL die 10 times to something that i would consider the second easiest boss in the game is fucking absurd.

it's okay to admit that you had trouble on certain bosses. pontiff slapped my shit a good 15 times before i even got him into phase 2, while other anons beat him easily. it's okay to have trouble on certain bosses. it's stupid to say that EVERYONE will have trouble on certain bosses.

It feels good.

Seriously though, being a 2-handing, heavy armor wearing guy makes the game harder than you'd expect. I was a relatively long way of the game in before I could even midroll. And even then, ultra greatswords are so slow...

You can, easily.

I'm pretty sure I did mention 'unless Knight/STR and/or watched streams'. What you say about 'you literally just attack him' kinda means that you either have a shield to block, or can survive more than 2 hits of a combo you still haven't seen once.

Supposedly heavy armor is about 5 points of damage different from rags in this game for some reason. Some anon did a bunch of testing and absorption rings are better for defense than armor.

It doesn't matter which combo. Until you see it the first time, you don't know the exact moment when/what to expect, and I needed TWO ANY HITS to die or be very close to death. The second watcher didn't help either, then the third - when you know you can survive 2-3 hits at most, you can't go on the aggressive and test out various things. If you can survive more than two hits - great, it's good having a shield that actually works for the blind meeting with the boss. Meeting the boss blind with NO abilitiy to use any shield and with just enough armor/hp to survive ~3 usual hits and 0-1 surprise heavy attack is not fun at all.

Deacons were easy, Wolnir was ~5 attempts easy, Vordt not so easy in P2 when he just destroys you unless, again, you're a heavily-armored knight, Sage absurdly easy too. Then again, I'll say it: going Sif damageless (no paws damage) still looks easier than completing Abyss Watcher with the character I had at that moment.

DeS 8/10

nice game for the time it came out. fun combat, crazy online. some of the areas can drag for a little long though

DaS 7/10

first half of the game is a solid 9/10, but too much shit weighs the game down such as half the areas being rushed, horrid balance, horrid netcode, broken mechanics out the ass, terrible weapon movesets, horribly optimized. the games combat is also very slow compared to des which was a big disappointment. and seriously, areas like lost izalith, the dukes, new londo and even anor londo are just terrible and ruin the game any time i try to replay it. seriously a 4/10 from the last half of dark souls

DaS2 8/10

more arcadey and a higher focus on gameplay added to replayability, much better online and fixed most the broken shit that das introduced like poise and backstabs. probably the best online of any souls game thanks to from actively applying patches. still suffers from tons of pointless areas like das but no where near as bad since areas are more linear. sadly the game gets memed on because of retards who cant let go of das nostalgia

BB 7.5/10

awesome gameplay, but the theme of the game gets old fairly fast as theres not enough variety. guns are annoying as fuck. the online is horrid like in das, but still a good game. also the performance just isnt acceptable in this day and age. sadly the game gets memed on because of retards who cant let go of das nostalgia


DaS3

probably the best souls game to date. fast, fluid, and just fun as hell. online is fun as fuck due to how crazy it is. the areas are great, love the verticality of the game. too early to really give a rating though. sadly the game gets memed on because of retards who cant let go of das nostalgia

faith was very underwhelming.

The damage dealing miracles are nediocre and will be out damaged but spamming r1 on your main hand. Using the miracle leaves you open to counterattack on most of the bosses and the reward is damage is worse than just hitting them with your main hand. Lightning stake and lightning spear are pretty decent for pvp but the healing spells are redundant due to estus flasks.

Everything apart from the thunder damage buff can be done better by items

>>138971989
I'm very early game on a meme pyro build I'm using that, ultimately in the end, is destined to fail.

Pyro skill sale off of int/fth and it requires huge investments to make it even half decent so I'm running the demons fist and a pyromancer flame with little to no armor for the <30% weight group. The Demons fist has E scaling off of int/fth and like C from strength so I'm hoping for good.

So yea you need int and faith for pyro so it's not out of the question to run sorcs and miracles too.
>>
>>138971917
I dont mind that r1'ing is a viable strategy its just that all the other tactics are considerably worse. Unless you are pushing a self imposed challenge on yourself to always use a certain weapon or play style youll end up using a light fast weapon like straight sword
