rate my co-op funbuild, DSG.

name: JollyCooperation

Will likely end up having multiples of the same weapon. One would be blessed, one would be lightning. I'm also having some issues thinking about what spells to use though, and whether or not to even bother with offensive miracles given that I can't really use any of the rings.

Would it be viable to switch out the longbuff ring for ring of firstborn if such a situation were to present itself? Is sage ring even viable? etc

I tried watching vaati's '15 secrets of DS3' or something and it was some horribly obvious shit. On par with 'you don't have to jump to the boss armor merchant in DS1, fall from this part'

Vaati's an unskilled hack that takes shit from 4chan for his lore videos.

Sunlightblade is just annoying.

Yup, he's pretty easy. Lots of people get caught in that big combo of his during Phase 2, and apparently curved sword/pyro stance in Phase 1 gives some people trouble.

Oceiros is a stupid fight, since half the time he doesn't do anything except spin to win and the other half you spend 10 minutes chasing after him as he stupidly runs around the arena.

Poise working like it used to would effectively break the longsword/darksword shitters though. R1 spam wouldn't mean shit in heavy armor, the constant lock is the real problem although the damage they push is also pretty stupid if you could stay standing it would be a lot easier/viable to punish with a parry.
>>
>>140903964

Use the Old Demon King's Hammer or the Gargoyle's great hammer if you want to go that route. Astora's GS infused with Chaos is also a good idea.

>>140904065

Profaned GS is a quality weapon tho so it'd hardly be the most efficient for a pyro.

So every boss has a trick to it, right? A trick that, once you figure out what it is, the boss fight becomes easier. Maybe not trivial, but easier.

What is it for each boss?

>Gundyr: Can be parried like a chump

>Vordt: Hug his ballsack and flail away with whatever weapon you have

>Greatwood: Whack the sacks

>Crystal Sage: can get stunlocked in their warp animation with rapid attacks, only the actual copy shoots the purple.

>Deacons of the deep: get a weapon with a wide swing + shank the one currently being possessed by the Bouncing Red Ball

>Abyss Watchers: red-eyed ones are hostile to the main fuccboi, can get him stuck attacking the darkwraiths outside the fog (I killed him for the 3rd time that way)

>High Lord Lolnir: does it really need to be said? If he does his blue cloud vomit run away as swiftly as possible. Also destroy his right bracelet first.

>Pontiff Sulyvahn: whenever he does his kage bunshin nojutsu, hack the fuck out of the clone, it's weak and you won't need to keep track of the duplicated attacks. Secondly, he always seems to try to summon it again, giving you plenty of opportunity to fuck him up.

>Old demon king: fucking idiot who is ON FIRE decides to fight in an arena full of water puddles. Stepping in them will greatly reduce the range and potency of his fire.

What others are there?

>>
>>140904263

You're not going to get damage of it no matter what, so good enough.

>>140904252

You can also parry Sulyvahn and backstab Abyss Watchers. Also if you get the Homing Crystal Soul Mass the Crystal Sage uses as his first attack you can potentially kill him without him teleporting once as he won't teleport until all the soul masses are fired.

>>140904252

Fucking this. I spent a good five minutes earlier on Wolnir because I broke the left two first and he wouldn't stop attacking with his sword. Finally had enough and threw firebombs at his right arm until the bracelet broke.

Crystal Sage Rapier because it's a Rapier.

Can you beat the Greatwood by NOT whacking the ballsacks?

Any tips on Aldrich? I've been runing a sorc/1h sword build and so far, it always worked out, but this bitch seems to be resistant to magic. I swapped my wizard wand for pyromancy, throwing chaos balls that leave those molten puddles dealing extra damage, which works good up to the moment he starts spamming the arrows that follow you.

I've been reading around about that since I was curious too, I've for sure killed every mimic in the game and the last one, the one that drops the Sunlight SS in Lothric Castle did not drop the Symbol for me.

stats?/how much damage you dealing?

i popped in to the FC earlier and dealt fucking 129 a hit; absolutely laughable damage, and this was at +4 and like 27/40(?)

>>140905495
might try lothric knight long spear; i had a lot of fun two-handing it, and i think it's got good dex scaling when made sharp (could be wrong, though). there's also the tailbone spear in irithyll dungeon, but that shit does no damage.

I did it using weapons/shields that made sense. Blessed and Simple on shields are really neat, free healing/FP over time. I used Hollow on a Shield/Sword I plan to use with a luck build. Kinda threw the shittier ones (Deep and Fire, for example) on whatever.

The Lothric Knight Spear is really shit actually, I feel like it's balanced around the poise bonus it gives without them actually changing anything of it when they turned poise off. It noticeably does less damage than equivalent spears when maxed out and even is slower it feels like.

How do I get an ass like that on my Ashen One?
>>
>>140905757
I don't know about Greatswords, but Lothric Knight Greatsword is probably the best UGS if you do a quality/Faith build, due to it already having lightning damage on it and being buffable with Lightning Blade. I have 30 STR, 25 DEX, and this shit's AR is almost 600, and with sunlight blade it's about 720. Not bad damage for a UGS at level 100. If you go full quality on it, the AR is about 670 at 40/40, and with sunlight blade, it should be more than 800, at 30 faith. If you use sunlight blade at 60 faith, with Yorshkas chime, the Total AR for it should be over 900.

x1.5 starts from the strength you have. It doesn't help you find the requirement without brute forcing

did you mean *0.66? that's the same as * 2/3, but it's easier to divide it up into steps

lets say the weapon is 57 str
you're like well hmm maybe it's 32? 32 x 1.5 = 48, no that's too little, maybe like 37? 37x 1.5 = 55, no almost there. 38 x 1.5 = 57 there we go

at 80 or so it's best to use resins over weapon buffs because they do similar damage without spending points on att/fth/int
so probably weapon specials

Very useful against annoying enemies that stagger with fire or are weak to it.

Oh and if you're invading on places with lots of starts like the beginning of irithyl, try doing the binocular aiming trick to fire bombs further
I've actually killed people with no estus from afar with fire bombs because they thought I couldn't hit them.

And in PvP, if you have no charm firing a bomb while locked in and in close range often hits the mark between an enemy's escape roll.

Offline mode shitter here.

Strength weapons are just frustrating. I'm fighting Twin Princes in NG+ and they are

>far slower
>use far more stamina
>only deal about 1/3 more damage per R1
>incredibly slow wind up speed

The wind up speed is the biggest killer for me. Several occasions where I thought it was safe to attack, hit R1 and have then while my weapon is doing it's attack animation have the boss do THEIR entire attack animation and then deal damage to me before I even land the hit. I can play it safe of course, and only ever to one hit combos, but that is majorly limiting me. Longswords and the like, those weapons can get two hits, then extra hits and not have to worry about their wind up time. It feels like no one playtested this with a greatsword or large club / axe type weapon.

yeah epic bleed damage wow and all but there's no range, they're ridiculously telegraphed and it's nearly impossible to fight ultraweapons or spears with them

you can literally be rollpoked to death because your kit has no way of being subtle or clever, all you can do is run r1 because your roll attacks are fucking garbage and your l1/r1 basic attacks are slow as balls with the aforementioned zero range

i know at least one of you faggots use these things with success, how do you do it

i am getting absolutely memed on by the dumbest shit that i'd otherwise be crushing on, this is achingly bad and i can't believe how awful it is

What is the best build to play and why is it pyromancer?

Don't tell me that splitting between FTH/INT ruined it, because you still fucking wreck the shit out of almost everything in the game.

And the one area you CAN'T is Demon Ruins which is completely optional after grabbing the pyromancies the first time.

Why is this always the most fun class.

Stayed out of the general until I'd beaten the game, which done now. I'm sure I missed all the fucking discussion already, but if you'll indulge me what were everyone's thoughts on the game?

Mine were overwhelmingly positive for the most part. They've taken most of the good stuff from Souls 1/2 and Bloodborne and rolled it into one pretty fucking solid package, though I admittedly didn't fuck around with PvP for longer than I needed to max covenants and I'm sure its as broken a mess as ever.

You generally don't want to invest too much into str/dex as a pyro, as you don't want to be having lower than at least 26/27 vigor, so you don't just shrivel up and die when you use the clutch ring.

My favorite weapon to use on my pyro is the Gargoyle Flame Spear. If you know they're going to try to parry, you can also load up the WA + R2 because it has a delayed start so the parry whiffs and you automatically hit. Unless they use caestus then you're pretty boned.

Oh, yeah, it's easy to parry. But my point is, like here.
TriggerNigger switched to a shield because I kept poking him with the R1, so I figured he'd go for a parry + instant kill the moment I pressed R1. So, WA instead, which has a slower wind-up caught him off-guard and net me the win.

The parry spammer proceeded to still r1 spam for an additional 4 hits after the guy was dead. This is the state of the game.

its gotta be somethign like that, since dark souls 3 takes place after dark souls 2 and everyone knows about vinheim and shit and dark souls 2 places and gods, but no one in dark souls 2 knows anything or remembers anything about lordran

also notice how over the years the sea is rising in the souls games, as far back as the oolacile dlc to modern das1 darkroot. the sea is also a massive part of dark souls 2, the giants are basically vikings with huge ships and fire catapults, the pirates, castles buried under water, the abyss caves seemingly being under water caves.

With Things Betwixt being a "limbo between the outer world and Drangleic" (as said by that housekeeper) this checks out. Also, while Lothric is the land where the kingdoms of those who link the fire converge, Darangleic is the land where the kingdoms of those who failed to link the Fire due to various circumstances (either died before doing it or simply refused to do it) converge.

It's EXACTLY like saying "I don't wanna get too skillzed, I just wanna "pwn" some n00bz" as well. Do you even hear yourself m8? Do you know how ABSURD that sounds?

Another weapon that's pretty fun to use, if you have the stats for it is the Flamberge with Flame Arc on it. If you don't do much damage, at least you'll do some minor bleed damage.

Falchion is also decent. L2 -> R2 -> L2 is a nice combo with flame arc + clutch ring.

>>140910760

GCFO works well if you manual aim it. A lot of people will try to roll past you when you throw, so if you unlock and just aim down, you'll hit right next to you and they'll get hit by the fireball - or the lava. Either way, they're taking damage. I have a clip of some manual aiming in fight club from a few days ago, if you want to watch how I play.

It's not great content, but it shows how I learn a bit more on how to manual aim, and obviously I lost a lot more than the video shows obviously - but I ran out of music (which I do keep to a lower volume, so it doesn't distract too much). I've been meaning to catch another FC to make more pyro gameplay

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCJXDc8bB74

So yeah. If you wanna watch non-jap pyro. I want to learn that jap's artillery GCFO's though.

>>140910832

I'm going to lower the STR/DEX once I can settle on a weapon, and put those points into int/fai, and potentially lower my endurance a bit to get at least 35/35 int/fai. But I generally scrap it out and do cqc throws.
I mean, or you could go SL120 like a sane person and just not have the problem I'm having.
The build is a mess, honestly, but I'm having fun and in my head, that's what matters. People face enough R1 spam and estocs, at least I provide something of an alternative before I get my boycunt smashed.

Shields are a huge crutch for PvE now because of how aggressive many enemies are. Ideally you want something that's 100% Phys Block, or a Greatshield. The Black Knight Shield is a great choice because you can also parry with it.

Best way to learn how to counter a weapon is to use it yourself. You need to be relentless in attacking them. Make them waste their stamina by baiting them. They can be staggered easily before mid swing. Don't let them keep their distance, either. Halberds absolutely wreck me when I use an ugs because they nullify the distance advantage.

Get the Wolf Knight's Greatshield. It has "Skill" as a WA, so if you one-hand the Farron Memesword, and use skill with it. You now have a greatshield that can pretty much not be penetrated at all no matter the amount of kicking they do, with a near-caestus level parry..

How is it possible for people to have weapons and stuff from very late in the game and then still be able to invade me in undead settlement?

Yo, anon who just started playing Bloodborne yesterday.

Game is fucking awesome, I ran out of bullets when Daddy Gasgoine turned into a giant dog and that shit turned into the most intense bossfight ever.

I saw something mentioned at some point about using power attacks to stagger an enemy so you can do a viseral attack. What's the timing on that? I think its after theyve attacked, but the power attacks have so much start up lag they'll be starting their next move before you can get in there.
