What weapon has the best weapon art in the game and why is it the Dragonslayer Swordspear? It's like Sunlight Spear except not shit.

60-80 for patricians

120 for shitty havel-stoc muh quality babs

Where do I find Greirat's ashes? I'm pretty sure he's dead but I've looked everywhere I can think of in Irithyll and I haven't seen them.

I can't beat Aldrich. Anyone mind laying down a sign by the Anor Londo bonfire and giving me a hand?

Password is rage

1. Hard bosses. None of the bosses in Dark Souls 3 are even as hard as Father Gascoigne.

So try to give your most honest criticism of DaS3.
>Good are design for the most part, slightly too linear overall though.
>Most of the bosses were well designed excluding maybe 2 of them. A bit easy at times though, nothing was as rock hard as O&S or Orphan
>Balance is fucked, hopefully will be patched with time, but for now it's utterly fucked
>Story is fun, it has a bit too much fan service but I think has some neat puzzles to unravel.
>Bosses worked on new concepts or revisited old concepts that failed. This worked for the most part except that it became predictable when bosses would have more than one phase.
>Game leaned towards faster BB style combat. While this is fun, it also makes slow weapon runs much more difficult. I wouldn't say they are impossible as I beat the entire game with a zwei and no shield, but they are certainly at a disadvantage
>Netcode is the most stable on release (at least to me, it varies from person to person) of all the games
Generally, it's pretty good. It needs some solid patching though to fix the balance problems, maybe make some bosses harder.
I would put it behind DaS and BB, but on par with DeS and above DaS2.

Unless those literally double or triple stamina damage, it's still not going to guard break a greatshield unless your opponent is careless with their stamina.

More importantly, even if those were guaranteed guard breaks, they're generally too slow to be practical. Kicks have a huge startup, just like DaS2 guard break, and guard break attacks on straight swords are so slow, you can circle strafe behind and backstab in the time it takes to execute one.

I just wish long weapons would outreach short weapons or at least deal more damage for being slower. I also wish rolling out of stamina caused you to lose the ability to roll until your stamina refilled. I think that would fix a lot of what I don't like.

What made O&S difficult for most people was that they didn't level up enough on their first playthrough. It's a good boss but a fair bit of the difficulty comes from it being a chokepoint and the whole thing with O getting stuck on S and snapping forward and/or spearing you through his ally's hitbox.

>DS3
Fucked weapon balance.
Good areas. Felt truer to DS1 than 2 in terms of the path layouts.
Mostly good bosses. I didn't like the dankwood, and old demon king was flat out terrible. Everything else was at least okay or not troublesome, and plenty were good.
Slightly better character quests. Finding seigmeyer in Ds1 was retarded; 3 has a good mix up of hard to find and easy to stumble upon events.
Nothing special about the overall plot.

Curse-rotted Greatwood
Crystal Sage
High-Lord Wolnir
Deacons of the Deep
Ancient Wyvern
Yhorm The Giant
Champion Gundyr
Old Demon King
Aldritch
Dragonslayer Armor

Vordt is close to being shit tier due to how easy he is and how low his health is, but gets saved due to having one of the best tracks in the series.

Iudex gets saved from shit-tier by virtue of him being better than the other tutorial bosses in the series.

Design is top tier levelwise & aesthetically around the board, soundtrack is good as ever. Except for grouped enemies, it's even worse than DaS2.

Netcode has been appalling for me. Mabe the servers are overpopulated but I've been lagging badly with friends I've played previous games just fine with. I like the revamped matchmaking and password system carried over from BB though. Phantom range is still a problem.

The more I use it the more I realise how limited the Farron Greatsword is.

It's reach is mysteriously on par with most 1 handed swords and other greatswords will poise through attacks to trade against you, unfavourably. It's fun as fuck but it's stuck in a weird hole between power levels.

Those strawpoll results have been slowly coming in as people played the JP release, and 120-125 got slightly more popular over time, not less.

A small vocal minority of people are trying to push 80 or below. They are the same vocal minority that tried to push SL100 in DaS1 and SL120 in DaS2.

I thought it was some bullahir you had to be in ng+ for or something because in I absolutely could not figure out how to get there.

32 hours

Wait so why is Morion Blade not the best weapon in the game?

It's a straightsword with a fucking bleed effect.

If you attack someone with that fucking thing you will break through their shield, crit them, and probably bleed them to death just by spamming R1.

I mean with the popularity of the game I'm sure there will be splinter tiers so I'm personally not to worried. I'm also like level 55 in the dungeon. I'm not really certain how on or off that is but I'm not feeling like I need to level just yet so I'm gonna keep going till I feel it and see how I wind up naturally then argue that everybody adapts to me because obviously I'm right. lol

I just low end pvp anyway so meh.

>>139054926
I actually liked the tree.
Deacons was lazy but not offensive, and wyvern was just a boring concept.
The High lord flat up didn't work right. His fog's hitbox was weird, and he ended up crawling so far forward that I couldn't dodge his fog barf and he kept his right hand in his fog the whole fight. It's functionally broken.

In concept it helps you stay careful and cautious, but in reality it would just turn into an annoying mechanic. A chest mimic is there as a staple of fantasy games because it works, ads a certain amount of risk to chests but its an old concept and most people thwack every chest they open. We already hit suspicious walls because we suspect illusions, and we hit every chest because we suspect them to be mimics, but that's the same thing that makes the idea of more mimics retarded. How many of these abysmal ideas have to come out before you realize teh game would just become "hit every single piece of geometry in the world" kind of game?

But then, retarded indie shit people are into now, I wouldn't be suprised if some faggot was jacking off to the idea of the game where the only enemy types are just different types of mimics.

What's a good Crystal Sage Rapier build?

So what everyone's take on the meta level?

DS1 was 125 largely because 40/40 bandit with capped HP and endurance; in 3 you can hit 40/40 and raise your vig and end to 20 each and hit 81 with a knight (less with a warrior, at the cost of allocating points to luck). Is 20 hp/end considered the norm?

GEE that might be because the game is less than a week old nigga.

You really need to look at his weapon a bit better. Look at Nito's, then the top part of his. Besides, if you're splitting hairs it's not a scythe it's a halberd.

Honest Criticisms:

>Levels are a bit too large, but well designed, makes it hard to invade and not get someone who'll just sit in a random corner and wait you out

>Bosses are inconsistent, ranging from pitifully easy (Crystal Sage/Yhorm) to punishingly hard (Oceiros/Nameless/Dancer)

>Armor is inconsistent, being unable to upgrade and the general ridiculous weight on the heavier sets leads to either running barebones or never unequipping Havel's Ring/Ring of Favor

>On the topic: Softcapping VIG at 25 for the initial run leaves you just barely able to take 2 hits from later on bosses, even in "heavy" armor, and the armor seems to reduce piss-all for damage in reality, filling in more of just fashion than actual damage absorption

>Netcode, while stable-ish, makes it far too easy to abuse the milliseconds of lag to backstab people or hit them mid roll

>Covenants are great, but some make no sense (Blue Sentinels/Darkmoon fulfilling the same role essentially), and the lack of a full Blue eye orb and even cracked blue eye orbs makes being a sentinel unrewarding since most people don't equip their "Way of the Blue" items

>Miracles seems to only fulfill the role of healing, as the damage scaling is "meh" at best compared to the shitter-shattering that Witch's Ring/GS Ring/Fire Clutch Ring puts Pyromancy at, or the general dank damage of soul spears and other such sorceries

>Boss weapons seem to be complete assy garbage save for a few, and even then you need to intensively build around the weapon you choose.

>Weapon arts are wonderful, save a few that seem useless (i.e. Mace weapons poise increase) and a few seem "broke" (i.e. Ornstein's Spear's charge tracking)

>Along with the boss inconsistencies mentioned earlier, it feels as if typical mobs are inconsistent on damage as well (looking at you Lothric Castle Knights) and some placements seem to be put in to just fuck players no matter what, like the room full of jailers in Irithyll Fungeon.

>dancer armor
>drang twinspears
I feel more like the dancer than the dancer ever was.

did anybody crunch the numbers regarding weapon buffs?
do they scale or just a flat out damage increase?
how strong is darkmoon blade compared the the magic weapon buffs?

has the scans of the Prima Guide come out in pdf form yet? I'd love to read through it

Is there any way to increase FPS when your CPU is absolute fucking dogshit? I know I need upgrade but it served me well and I could still run witcher 3 on medium.

>durf you can parry this boss that makes it shit, pontiff and gwyn 2.0 are not shit tho

At least Pontiff isn't a lazy reskin, unlike Champion.

If by "Gwyn 2.0" you mean Soul of Cinder, then no, you can't parry him, dumbass.

>Hey guys, look at all these new spells we added!

>they all suck cock, there is no reason to use anything that is not Great Chaos Fireball or Crystal Soul Spear

Like i said. If you want balanced fights and invasions every 5 seconds then 60-80 is the place to be. If you want to wait 5 minutes for an invasion just to fight a havel-stoc then go 120
