How does parrying work this time, at the tip or the base? All these straight sword kids need to be taught a fucking lesson with all this R1 mashing, but I don't know whether or not to parry the tip or base.

Overall its pretty disappointing soundtrack to be honest with only three memorable tracks.
tfw I was looking forward to Nameless King being a challenging fight but using the Estoc made it trivial
walked in and hit him 7 times, he stunned, I got a Riposte, I did it once more and he was dead. rip
How'd I do?
Holy shit the game died so quick for me when I killed the final boss. The PvP is ass.
Do people ever play these games with keyboard/mouse?
Or is it like a controller required type game?
Just wondering 'cause I've never played a single DS game, and I wanna get it right.

Also are there really no dual rapiers? What the fuck?
Would someone be so kind to tell me how armor, in general, works in this game? I heard the entire armor system got changed
So the deacons do drop human dregs and I got a few so far but the silver knights haven't dropped a single proof of a concord kept.

Spending two minutes running to Abyss Watchers, then four more running racetrack patterns as the boss kills itself, then finally getting to fight the boss is not compelling gameplay. It's just makework, stalling you until you can actually try to kill the boss.

I want to strangle the fucking dumb ass at fromsoft that thought it was a good idea to give boss's resistance to certain weapons.
I was doing 400 damage per swing on the first phase of Unnamed king but when it came to the second phaseI was doing 80 per because I had lightning on my weapon. Because of this bullshit I couldn't beat him so I decided I'd try a different infusion and ended up beating this cunt in 1 try. Shaking my head family, this shit right here is artificial difficulty at it's finest.

Unless you're swinging a weapon with the momentum of a truck, yes, getting attack by something is going to stagger you. Go outside and kick a pitbull and see how you stack up against it, we'll see if you can fight it without "Staggering"

[reposting in case he didn't see it]
First thing you have to do is find a weapon with a FUCKLOAD of hyperarmor and phantom range to even beat out the Katana(ex: I use the Great Club). Then all you have to do is time it and hit first.
See those fuckers running towards you? Trade with your 2h R1.
That faggot weeb trying to r1 spam? HYPERARMOR the shit out of him and exert dominance.
After all that and he's running away to chug? Either stay on him until he panic rolls into a wall or 2h running R2 and phantom range the shit out of him.
I've honestly got over 100+ Sunlight Tokens (I never co-op) from spanking these scrubs and their gank squads. Seriously, go STR.

Easy to find information about the game, people talking about builds, etc...
I'm liking this game a lot. I started as a knight and I'm having a lot of fun, regardless of the difficulty, which I don't find particularly overwhelming. I found DS1 to be more difficult.
Does /vg/ like this game, too?
>>139001302
When will people stop using the meme ring? It doesn't help you bamboozle people at all.
Can someone here explain why I've been getting summoned to other worlds while unkindled / hollow?
It's happened about 4 times as I've played through the game thus far, usually to defeat a phantom or something.
I don't understand why though, is this something to do with covenants or something?

So when I 2h a weapon I get 50% boosted str. Does that mean I also lose the penalty for damage for not having enough str? Or does it only mean I can use the weapon moveset correctly?
For instance if I am planning a build around a weapon with 15 str req, do I only need to have 10 str in my build and just infuse the wep raw?

From blew their soundtrack load early with Gundyr's theme.
Honestly, his and Yhorm's are the only ones that stood out to me during the fight.
Is the weapon level for matchmaking a difference of 1 or 2?
Like can I co-op with a +0 as a +2? or can that be only +1
Another question, How do talismans work? I see spell buff and scaling... But so far it seems like all of them are pointless outside of a chime I have that has high base spell buff, and the saints chime I have that has s scaling. But I cant even see how much spell buff is added from scaling, so I have no idea what is shit or not.
Is there any point in using one form of magic over another or are they all equally shitty? Want to make a dick ass caster for my second build but I'm torn between sorcery and pyromancy/dark magic.
>>139002229

What about Vigor, is it honestly worth wasting points in just increasing your health bar?
Anyone using Greatsword of Judgement? It reminds me of the sword you get from trading the last boss soul in DS2, and I fucking loved that thing.
However, this character is fully invested in DEX/int, maybe I should just stick with the shit I have, using the Estoc makes me feel dirty though.

>>139002312
Not an argument, Souls games clearly have a grounded setting where there are laws of physics that apply, it's why your character can only jump five feet off the ground instead of flying, why your character can't do cartwheels in full armor without using a magical ring or absorbing souls and leveling up. There's magic, but even that is based in the setting and never goes beyond shooting magical prjectiles, manipulating flame, and getting divine assistance with miracles. If I used your argument I could just argue that my character should be able to do anything because magic exists.
>It's just a le videogame XD
Has never, and will never be an argument as every videogame has a setting with rules as to what your character can and cannot do.

Pyro has some good stuff. Sorc seems to be the best so far at least for me. But stay away from faith. Its fucking horrible. Unless you just want to use heals and buffs I guess, but not as the dick ass caster you want to be because offensive miracles like lightning spears are complete and utter shit. They cost enormous amounts of FP and are extremely weak in comparison to the other 2 magics.
Offensive miracles are only good if you use sunlight spear and pump faith way past 40, like to 60 or 70, and use an S scaling talisman. But by that point, you've been better off using sorcery or pyro the whole time. And your other stats are going to suffer extremely for it.

Not any of them, but what I wanna know is
How the flying fuck did you get to 68.7 carry load?
Did you just equip the heaviest armor you could find?
Are you carrying three greatswords on your back?
Also, Vigor = health = much better survivability. Personal opinion, might wanna see about dropping your carry load somehow and swapping your VIT and VGR stats.
>>139003298

Good taste
Pyromancy is solid for pve. Spells are cheap and spammable and do solid pve damage for fairly low investment. As long as you have a decent physical weapon, you can challenge the Smouldering lake and essentially pick up all of your endgame spells less than 50% of the way through the game.
Sorcery is hot garbage currently. Soul arrows work like they did in DaS1 (completely shit tracking and speed) but with enemies that move much faster and actively dodge spells. You do fuck all damage earlygame and need a hyperspecialized build to do any damage lategame. The melee spells are really cool, but their damage is abysmal. Farron Flashsword and Soul Greatsword are getting buffed on monday so hold out on a sorcery build to see how much they actually improve them.
Supportive miracles are pretty solid. For 15 faith you get a tonne of stackable buffs that come in handy. You need to sequence break and kill the dancer early to access some of your best low-cost buffs, though.
For offensive miracles, I don't know. I'm doing a faith playthrough right now and I'll have lightning spear in about an hour, so I'll see how it pans out when I get it. I will say that I don't feel gimped at all as a faith character because blessed and lightning infusions feel very usable for pve, so my melee damage with 12/16/20 does not feel lacking earlygame.

you can show your naked butt if wear a certain armor set and do a gesture
>>139003661
Estus is my only issue really. I can't punish that shit at all, its so quick. So pvp is an endurance match of who runs out of chugs first (the phantoms. that was the answer)
I can't even feel good when I lose from taking all the gank squads heals because killing me gives it back. Being an invader feels like just being a minor nuisance with always invading 3 v me.

Vitality in this game seems really weird
You can put on some middleweight knight-style armor and a sword and board for like 10 vit and be well under 70% equip load, but you only get one extra point of equip load per level up so you have to ruin your build if you want to wear a fatty set like exile set

Bloodborne is the most complete and inventive game they've made. Dark souls 1 follows closely behind but after lordvessel it falls apart. Dark souls 3 is a pretty fun game but balance is all over the place and the setting and lore is the least inventive in the series, Demons' souls is full of gimmick bosses but still has great atmosphere. Dark souls 2 had good pvp but that's about it.
Any other list is pushing it. Although I can understand the complaint about bloodborne pvp, so a swap with DS1 is fine.
Well I just beat the game
All bosses and it took me 30 hours exactly
It was a masterpiece tbqf easily the best souls game

>>139003586
And Pontiff summons a phantom, so he's a "rehash" of Darklurker.
Demon king uses fire and a club so he's a Firesage "rehash".
Oceiros is a dragon so he's a Kalameet "rehash".
Lothric revives his brother so he's a Throne Watcher/Defender "rehash".
I could go on, if that's your definition of rehash is, then practically every boss in these games are a rehash

It's a shame, because heavy armour is so shit it wouldn't even be worth it if the weight growth from Vit was tripled, it might as well not even exist and just make armour cosmetic.

I'm making a low level invader character to invade the first 2 areas. I just finished cathedral and catacombs as a base level warrior with a +1 weapon.
Wondering if I should just infuse my weapons with something like fire, or just use raw to boost the attack because raw is better on everything right now for me. I could use resins with raw.
What's the point of the demon ruins? Is there a boss there?

This is the future you choose. The future where the Souls games becomes popular and they have to cater for the casuals.

Is the mashing of the spin shit of those twinblades really not fucking parryable?
Why the fuck does invading give such little souls?
The most I have ever got is 650 at level 53.

>>139004213
Champion gundyr is a bullshit boss fight, mainly because the game was designed like ass

>finally get a guy
>he's sliding around with no animations
So would any anon come to like high wall of lothric first bonfire on my new character and drop me a Hollow infused bow? (Long,short or composite?) I'm trying out this luck bow and would love something to actually do the build with instead of waitng all the way until dungeon? I'd really appreciate it.
>>139004195
he was a Way of White Cleric. then he started to become a cannibal, which isn't really that bad in the DaS world, but its bad for a cleric. then he killed and ate so many people that he bloated up and got super powerful from their souls. kind of similar to Smough, if Smough started out as Petrus
>>139001078
This is what you get for having it on PC, shouldve been a ps4 exclusive, the bloodborne threads are always maximus comfymus
I've been playing at the "arena spot" behind Pontiff bonfire for a couple of days now. It is currently being used for duels by nice amount of players.
Now, I can't help but notice one retarded thing:
Literally good 75% of players there are using some variation of the knight armor set with a katana. What's up with these retards? Are they just trying to copypaste their builds from DaS 1 and 2 or what the fuck is going on?
Half of them are playing exactly the same way also - just doing that silly running around not locked thing and then "suddenly" charging for a stab attack. I'm starting to think a popular streamer/whatever/redditor posted a "cool new PvP" tip about that or something, as most of these players are just getting destroyed hard trying to manage it.
>>139004397
raw is better
>>139004359
Who cares? Let him play how he wants. This community is fucking pathetic.
Will From fix the parrying problem in Mondays update?

>don't use in game mechanics, anon
>>139004601
Seriously fuck shit like this in this game. Bloodborne gets so much shit for its build variety and they go and build an entire game that only allows one fighting style to function. Its insanity
>>139004601
This. He does complete 180's in midair and has that bullshit shoulder charge move.
>>139004551
Sunset set, do the Sirissa questline
DaS3 has the best endgame out of any RPG fromsoft has ever made.
The entire weapon system needs rebalancing
all slow weapons are objectively shit
>>139004508
Okay, I have to ask.
There's a streamer who does nothing but parry fish people, right? 9/10 of the I invade always end the fight trying to parry fish me, and basically stop playing the game altogether simply hoping for a parry to try and beat me. I fought a guy earlier today in High Wall who tried to parry me like seven times in one match, and I got so annoyed I stopped playing and just started backpedaling and mashing the parry button because I'm so fucking sick of seeing it. Is there a streamer who just does nothing but circle strafe while waiting for parry opportunities? Because I'm seeing so many fucking people playing that way.
>>139004721
Same, I've played all Souls games on PC with kb+m, only with DaS 1 you NEEDED the dsmfix because it was just so fucked up

Kats have been common since DeS, they are a good and easy to use weapon.
The running around in cricle shit is from DaSII, instant shitter stamp.
In DaSII's terrible netcode your character would glide around and be more 'unpredictable' or so it was thought.
shitters like Oroboro did it and every one of his followers did the same.
Why did miyazaki take a shit on the sexiest weapon in the game?
>>139004081
dumb magicfag
>>139003610
1. The Exile set is heavy as shit. Don't know why, don't ask me. If you're wearing it for fashion, I'm not gonna chew you out for it, but somebody said that as long as you're wearing something in every slot the numbers themselves are relatively irrelevant. If you're after stats, the most important one is weight; the lighter you are, the better.This needs confirmation from someone who isn't a shitter.
2. Carrying both Butcher Knife and Dark Sword is greedy. Pick one and leave the other in your backpack until you need it. Having it in your equip slot hits your load. I'd say Dark Sword since it's the lighter of the two, but I've been hearing from the general that it's a bad meme. Not sure what to make of it.Then again I use the Irithyll Straight Sword, so I have no business talking about bad memes.
3. The Black Iron Greatshield is really heavy. Get the opinions of someone better than me, but as long as either you're good at parrying and the shield has parry, or the shield has 100 Physical Defense, you don't need to be dragging around something heavy.
And that's all I can give.
>>139004805
it's quite fun when you play against retards.
Is it only me having trouble remembering which areas connect to what? Despite playing for 50 hours I still can't remember my way around some of these places or where most of these shortcuts even lead in the first place. Didn't have this problem with Bloodborne or Dark Souls 1.
>>139001842

Does this game have penalties for leaving covenants?
Like in DaS1, if you had given 30 medals and left the covenant, if you rejoined it you would only have given 15.

Yes, I realize that as I've been playing these turds as PvP games way way too much.

There's a difference between strategically using parries, and literally doing NOTHING but fishing for parries, or giving up and just parry fishing once you start losing.

Yeah it was for sure an epic reference, the game definitely needed more of those.
When I finished Dark Souls 3, I kept asking myself why the game didn't reference Dark Souls 1 enough, that was absolutely my favorite thing about Dark Souls 2, it kept reminding me that I had played the previous game, which is something I like.

If you don't want to get parried use any of the attacks that arbitrarily can't be parried.

Yeah almost as easy as the other souls games
The sorcerer hollows in front of the crystal sage have a chance at dropping crystal gems, right?
>>139005319
It's not an either/or thing. If you're level 40 with a +10 weapon, you'll only match up with Level 30-50s with +8-+12 or whatever.

Shoot with arrows you literal moron
>>139005886
I don't know, I get it occasionally.
Just had it with one phantom but not the host while invading. Its annoying as fuck.
>>139005956
You don't need the balista, it's easier to kill it without.
Just attack it from the side where you originally came in and it'll just keep spamming lightning at the ground while you whack away at its body.
If you try to attack it from the Demon Ruins bonfire it'll keep shifting around.
>make first sorcerer character
>cheese Ludex Gundam with soul arrow spam

Again you are the casual.
>>139005130
>>139005183
It has 40 less AR than my exile greatsword at +3 while being much slower and using up more stamina. I don't know if UGS (minus FUG) as a whole have trash damage or just Astora's, but it's really disappointing.

>>139005638
Because DaS is weeb shit, autist
did you guys turn scrub and summon help got any bosses on your first playthrough? I summoned for Jedi priest but solod everything else
Is there any solution to co-op for the PC version? Can't get my friend to see my summon sign, using a password. I was under the impression password co-op had no level or weapon restrictions, is that wrong?
>>139006132
Even easier way.
Enter the demon ruins and run left and hide behind a rock.
Ballista will shoot at you and end up hitting the worm instead every time.
Go make a sandwich and it'll be dead once you're back.
>>139005873
ds1 had two bosses that were harder. Kalameet and manus.
I should make an excel table to figure out the percentage of "katana knights" of duelers.
Maybe that's too autistic
So where exactly is Anri's summon sign in Anor Londo?
I think i broke the quest.
I killed Horace and she was gone from the catacombs. I killed Yuria because i throught she was Yurt 3.0
I ran into Anri in the church, but i did NOT kill the assassin, and according to the wiki, this should place her in the Darkmoon Tomb, but she's not there either.
Did anyone else fuck this up?

Okay, I got the gem, but am I retarded or am I missing something? I go to the infuse thing at Andre and neither the short bow or the composite bow show up in the menu. I have all the coals so its not that I'm missing that, the bows just aren't even showing up to be infused. Can bows not be infused or am I missing something obvious?

You were sliding for me too.

You could just kill them quickly.
What is wrong with being punished for standing around and doing nothing?
>>139006195
Why don't you get as good at Dark Souls as you are at posting bait?
Then you wouldn't need to be carried. :^)
>>139006265
Manus is equivalent to a normal enemy in this game with a lot of HP.
A big outrider knight could blow him the fuck up.
So why did they get rid of armor upgrading and made armor all give the same defense?
>>139006279
She's at the firelink shrine
>>139006324
Can you tab over to it? If not can you do a hollow bandit knife? Or give me anri's straight sword lmao

are these the "winged executioners"? will we ever know about the "sun's dark temptations", except that it looks like a darksign and sunbros can invade for medals?
>lead developer literraly said they made DaS3 super easy because they wanted ecelebs and journalist to beat the game
>nobody brings this up because they pretend myzimoto can do no wrong
DaS3 is a shitty failure thats way too casualized. If you actually find this game hard than you are either a new poser to the franchise or a pc user.
>>139006284
this is right desu >>139005672
This game has a problem with loading in dialogue or enemy aggro when you're in a spot that's behind a wall or below the enemy. Does anyone else feel this shouldn't be happening. I'm still very early, but I've ran into 3 different situations like this.
The undead who turns into that monsters on the rooftop in Lothric gets aggro if you're within proximity on the floor below. The bird's nest on the shrine gets triggered if you're standing on the platform below (This shouldn't be happening as the dropped feathers and twigs is a design choice to indicate what's above, but when you stand below the same dialogue happens). The jar man in undead settlement starts moving if you walk around by one of the bonfires, which shouldn't happen as there is large stone wall separating the encounter with him.
>>138999937
>Hosts are allowed to seed when they have phantoms
Are you fucking serious? Its actually impossible to win in that scenario.
Which site did y'all torrent DaS3 from?
Fucking UPS sorted my copy to the other side of the fucking country and I won't get it till Thursday.

Has anyone had a Deserter Chest armor drop? I've farmed these fucking hollows for hours and all I'm getting are helms and pants.
>Can't use homeward bones or multiplayer items in the woods or the cathedral of the deep
>I can start at the abyss watchers bonfire, walk into the catacombs where I can put my sign, then run back over outside the entrance of the abyss watchers and I can't use a homeward bone or my summon sign
Can anyone explain what the fuck is going on here?
I'm not getting invaded, all the bosses are dead, I just can't use any of those items at the cathedral or the woods for some fucking reason, it works fine everywhere else
I'm at a loss here

Am I the only one noticing how cocky all the PVE pussies have gotten now that they LITERALLY can't be invaded without outnumbering the Invader?
This is what you faggots get for wanting Miyazaki back. One of the last truly fearful/difficult parts of Dark Souls is now gone so babies don't have anything to be afraid of playing these games.
Are you fucking retarded?
Difficulty was toned down for early release versions, go compare bossfights on live with that footage
>>139006324
Could you still give me a +2 bow or +2 hollow bandit or both? I'd appreciate it. It's mostly for testing. You are a good person anon
>>139006324
are they in your item box?
>>139006279
>So where exactly is Anri's summon sign in Anor Londo?
It's right outside the gate to the cathedral, but if you didn't kill the assassin and killed Yuria, you're probably fucked.

Aldrich was a disappointing pushover, dancer was alright
>>139006573
You have to play aggressive
>>139006504
Yeah it's not letting me tab, the only other tab is for shields. That's so fucking dumb that bows can't be infused. But yeah, I must have forgotten to pick up Anri's Straight Sword. I finished her quest but I don't have it. Does it spawn in Darkmoon tomb when you "marry" her?
>>139000531

They made the beta easier. You dumb fuck.
>>139006759
yeah that is why there are no quick enemies.
That makes zero sense anon.
you are arguing like you should never ever have to run in a souls game.
What is happening to dsg? This place is getting worse than fucking /v/
/v/!!!
I haven't been paying attention since release.
I have a i7 950 (nearly 5-6 year old CPU), 6gb ram, and a 760. Have they patched the game not to be fucking garbage yet or should I not even bother hitting purchase?
>>139001231

Miyazaki directed DaS, which has the best PvP system in the series. How were we supposed to know?
>>139006630
>specific way to prioritize invading a world that already has a red
>he fell for the fake wiki info
Also none of the other shit you mentioned matters. Unhollowing is easy. Getting Red Eye Orb in any game is easy. All phantoms can use Estus now. Staying in one Covenant to use Red Eye Orb is easy.
Beating three players at once is not possible unless they're retards.

THANK YOU GREGOR
SORRY FOR BEING A SCRUB
jesus christ, the dancer's second phase is fucking illegible. were it not for the fact that she just has way too little hp/deals too little damage for the point in the game at which you're supposed to fight her, she'd be hands-down the best boss, i'm convinced. playing with 20 vigor and +3 uchi gives me a new appreciation for this fucking boss

you do more damage and have slightly better range
theyll probably fix the longsword online range in a few patches time too so its fine
>>139003798
If you feel bad for winning an invasion just look at all the limp-dicks in this thread puffing their chest out over Invaders being "salty" or whatever because the game literally handicaps all Invaders.
The only pity you should feel for him is that he's so bad at the game he needs help from Phantoms.
Is there anything I should do before getting to NG+?
I've already been to the Dragon area and am wondering if there is any other optional area like that.

Have you 2hardcore4u retards ever considered that you're doing better with this simply because of your experience with the other games in the franchise?
Okay, I really don't get how you're supposed to avoid Aldritch's 2nd form arrow storm consistently
So we all agree Champion Gundyr is the best boss fight right?
He's literally the only boss in the game where when you lose to him you think "that was my fault" instead of "that was bullshit".
His moveset is simple and straight forwards, but still difficult to fully avoid. He doesn't have any bullshit 50 hit combos. His aggression level is just right. He doesn't have 5x more health than he needs to, nor does he go around 1-2 shotting you (he doesn't do much damage at all). He doesn't have some retarded gimmick or 20 stages making the fight last way too long either.
He's a pure 1v1 me "get good or die trying" boss. And it's brilliant.
>>139006884
i5 2500k/r9 380 here, it still stutters like ass in certain zones at lowest possible settings 1080p, you're probably going to have a bad time

she does, though, if you've got the ~30-35 vigor you should have after fighting the first three LoC's; underleveled, you literally have to just dance with her and dodge all the crazy shit she throws at you until you get the opportunity for one, maybe two safe hits, because most of her moves will let her two-shot you. with enough vigor, it just becomes "don't just eat her super-duper spin right in your face" and you win.

First time:He comes back with new items.
Second time:He dies unless you tell Patches where he ran off to. If he lives, he comes back with even more stuff for you to purchase.
Third time:He dies trying to loot the Great Archives. As far as I know, there is no way to save him unless you convince him not to go loot the place.

Momentum = mass x velocity
Conservation of momentum (two objects colliding) = (mass object A x initial velocity object A) + (mass object B x initial velocity object B)= (mass object A x velocity after collision object A) + (mass object B x velocity after collision B)
Therefore, heavier armor DOES affect momentum, because momentum divided by mass = velocity. Go fuck yourself.

>>139007462
Literally how? She no longer in my game, ANYWHERE.
Her sign isn't in Anor Londo, her corpse isn't in the Darkmoon tomb, she's not in Firelink, she's not in the catacombs, she's not in the church, she's not in the Road of Sacrifices.
And the old woman doesn't sell her stuff.

>>139007605
Here's some protips for literally any boss
1.Use a straightsword, other weapons are literally underpowered and they are insanely overpowered
2.Only attack once in-between the bosses attacks, 90% of them will always swat at you if you swing twice.
Its absolutely insane how little they playtested this game, entire classes of weapons are unviable/retardedly hard to use against a third of the bosses.
>>139007631
>Dancer deals too little damage

Okay.
Her grab will take you down to like 5% HP even in heavy armor if you have 30 vigor.
Okay.

I don't have enough strength to wield or compare it to other curved GS, but I used it all throughout my playthrough and it performed really nicely.
The weapon art is kinda clunky. The first hit has way more recovery than other curved GS if you don't follow it up, and the followup has this awkward habit of turning in really awkward ways if you try to manually aim it, usually forcing you to jump backwards in the opposite direction of the one you wanted.
Despite being cool, I think the WA is straight up worse than other curved GS and it's the only thing that makes it unique. It might be better AR-wise, but I can't compare them so I don't know.
BB > DaS3 > DaS1=DeS > DaS2
I think we can all agree on this.
>>139007834
Thanks, I'll try there. All I need for a full on Thrall build.
Are strength builds viable anymore? I was unstoppable in DS2, but in DS3, I can never hit dex users. Not to mention, I can't block anymore as dex weapons eat so much stamina that it makes it not worth wild. Should I just give up and change my Knight's stats to dex?

Patches doesn't ask you where he is unless Siegward is still in the well. Recently, I saved Siegward from the well and then told Greirat to loot Irithyll, but Patches didn't give me the new dialogue after that and Greirat died because of it.

You're right. There's just no way to keep him alive AND be able to purchase the new stuff from Greirat himself.
why did i do this
is she supposed to be dead
>>139008007
>Raw
Dark Souls 3 gameplay is kinda shit, but I liked the atmosphere although too many rehashed characters
Anyway here is what I think happens in the game:
-You wake up as unkindled and are immediately put under the spell of whoever is controlling you
-For some reason in the tutorial zone the time of day is very bright when you get to lothric castle you see that the sun is actually eclipsed
-Iundex Gundyr is the guy in charge of testing the unkindled of their worthiness (Iundex is latin for Judge)
-You get to the shrine which has NO exits other than warping, something the shrine in untended graves has, which connects to the dungeon of Oceiros
-This leads me to believe that the shrine you're at is a fake, or maybe an illusion, the fire is legit though, which might be a fake one tended by the (controlled?) fire keeper
-Why is the fireplace sword planted in Iundex Gundyr? And why is he infected with the parasite thing? Could it be he was infected by someone else to weaken him and let an unworthy unkindled through? Or maybe he's a fake animated by the parasite and the real Iundex Gundyr is the one in untended graves (which is much stronger)?
-Why do you find the firekeeper soul right next to the shrine in a tower? could it be the current firekeeper locked it away there (or someone else did to control her)? Why does the firekeeper express regret when you hand her the eyes and why is the firekeeper in the original shrine dead? Maybe someone killed her? Or maybe this is all because your quest has already failed from the get go (more on this later)
-Untended graves is pitch black, there is no one there because everyone is already dead or gone except for the old lady, which acts like she has never seen you because SHE HASN'T, you were led to the fake shrine from the get go and when you awoke it was already too late
-The intro states that unkindled can't light the fire, so why are you sent on a quest by the fire keeper and Ludleth (who for some reason is just hanging around)?

NEW THREAD WHERE
>>139007460
they're buffing soul GS and flashsword, right? they need to buff dart/farron dart, as well, honestly. none of those spells are useful at any point in the game because they're just woefully underpowered. with 60 INT, young+bellowing dragon rings, magic clutch, and maybe dusk's(?) can't remember what else i had on, and with a +10'ed court sorc staff (which inexplicably has better spell buff than the crystal staff +5; why on earth crystal doesn't have an S int-scaling i do not know), my great darts would deal like 130 damage to fire keeper, like half that to players. meanwhile my CSS hit players for fucking 900 damage and the fire keeper just exploded for like 1600. and my stupid crystal longsword +10 did like 100 more per swing than flashsword at those stats. fucking retarded; i can't imagine they're nerfing them.
>>139007584
try her just after completing road of sacrifice, with a +3 weapon; she's a much better boss when she's always threatening a two-hit and takes longer to kill
>>139007886
yeah no shit her grab leaves you almost-dead; it should kill you outright, considering how easy it is to dodge. like i said, even at 30 vigor, you're insulated from her. she's much more fun when you actually have to be super-patient and opportunistic instead of R1R1R1R1

Str weapons are again just for fun.
I played this game as a dex fag, and my reaper fucking destroyed everybody. Swings are wide, damage is good, range is fucking amazing, stamina consumption is little to none.

How to fix ds3 pvp
>reduce i-frames on rolls
>increase katana and straight sword stamina usage
>decrease katana range
>kick now instantly guard breaks like in ds2
I think I speak on behalf of everyone who loves the new PvP system when I say that it's about time we had a souls game that allows me to power through the game with no real threat or challenge.
I'm so happy the days of learning to get good are a thing of the past when I can simply summon an army of players to help me kill someone in my own level range...and even better I, and my phantoms, can now chug estus with no penalty (I HATED getting punished for healing in earlier souls games).
Even better is that if I feel having a monumental health and numbers advantage isn't enough I can just rely on my longswords ghost range, which ensures an easy and effortless win each time!
But honestly, sometimes I get invaded by people who can avoid all of the above, which sucks because I should LITERALLY never be at risk in this game, so, thankfully, the game will summon ANOTHER phantom into my world to help me, making it 4v1.

She simply ceased to be, all of them.

>>139008497
Candle head makes you immune to the purple arms reaching out from the books. Those arms deal dark damage and build up curse if you aren't a candle
The candle head also makes you extremely weak to fire. The wax that the enemies throw at you coats you for a short amount of time, additionally reducing fire defense and weighing you down. If you get coated too much, you'll fatroll or lose the ability to roll or run at all.

Are you fast rolling? You need to be fast rolling.
Also helps if you have gear which gives you +magic defense.
I was medium rolling and Aldrich was wiping me at like his final 15% of HP due to that arrow. So grab some lighter gear.

Except it came out earlier in Jap-land, and there's people who get paid to make guides for these games.

That looks really cool.

I've died more in DaS3 than all other souls games combined. Maybe you're just a god.

Why is faith in DS3 so shit? i pumped 20 points into this god damn stat for lightning spear and it does jack shit. like 50 damage woah man watch out. i'm restarting the game going dex because from loves dex fags this time around, you get a katana at the start of the game wtf is that shit,

Graphic settings;
lightning: low
Problem solved 90% of the time
>>139006834
Complete the game to find out. It's something best left unspoiled. Don't lurk here until you do please.
>>139008874
changing lightning quality low fixes this
>>139009358
>katanas are op meme
lol you just suck m8
straight swords are retarded though
OK Guys, SL175 fag here, i'm modding my SL and stats down to SL 125, what should i lower? currently 150

From just destroyed heavy weapons
>>139008746
Remind me the name of this anime.

God you're fucking stupid. Her arrows last longer than my stamina bar and I have 25 END
To everyone else who at least tried to help - thanks? Seems like pretty useless info besides "just cross your fingers"
Huge letdown of a boss given how awesome the Anor Londo revisit is.
>>139009235
It seems he doesn't know you can roll early out the knocked down animation.
>>139007654
Sl? area?
>>139009318
>>139008551
Might be too late.
Is the slug in Rosarias bed chamber? It drops the NPCs equipment, if so you are too late.
>>139008485
none of that
just add the good 'ol instant backstabs from DS1
>>139009649
They're not OP, but they're just very annoying to fight against with big and slow weapons.
They're difficult to parry which sets them apart from straight swords. Same with thrusting swords.

>>139009136
Holy shit, maybe I should invade people and then set the drop to Darkmoon Knight covenant drops or Watchdog covenant drops.
>>139009665
Greataxe still puts in work if you're not bad at the game
Do you guys think that from will eventually fix the straight swords or stagger or something? something's gotta give my dudes

The what quest line?
Is that even an NPC?
What should I use my Fire Gem on?
>>139009329

Endurance > vitality or the other way around?
I'm not sure if I want to even finish DS3. I was just progressing through lothric castle as per-usual and im really just not "feeling" the game. Its pretty much just another DS2 to me.
I guess im going back to DS1 and Demons. See you.
Hope I get to play bloodborne some day!
>>139009043
I had no trouble with that area. Probably the easiest thus far. Just use a two handed ultra greatsword charged thrust and stunlock everything.
>leave the wall already at level 20 on my new playthrough
>also got a stronger weapon than my previous sorcerer/spellsword
Uhh... leveling up felt a lot slower the first time around.

Fucking dammit. Now I'll have to wait another 16 hours to be summoned.
Don't have the game yet, but do you finally get to break the fire cycle?
>>139011614
read item descriptions
comb the maps
take your time
>>139010330
nah, you just got outplayed here
>>139010554
same here
i kinda want to try to like the game but it just feels wrong and i know i should just drop the game
feels like i have literally zero (0) reasons to play it
>>139001784
>It's a anon can't time his rolls and just want to backstab episode-
>>139008485
>kick now instantly guard breaks
no. with knight slayer ring or horse hoof ring there are easy ways to guard break, this variety is better than a simple button press for every build type ever.
