I also like in Dark Souls PvP, the aggressor is the one who is in the disadvantage when the fight is in neutral.

Every fight is people strafing until someone loses their patience and attacks or one guy starts to throw daggers because he's too scared to take charge and be the aggressor.

This game is a fucking joke.

You don't understand.
going 50/50 with a sharp or heavy weapon wouldn't be worth it.

Buffs to Heavy and Sharp would mean less 40/40s and more 50/10(or min req for weaponused or 10(or min req for weapon used)/50s. or even 27/40 if using sharp infusion.


Buffing heavy and sharp would not impact quality.

>>145003736
Not really when every single weapon has an obvious counter, there's literally no reason to stay outside the 40/40 meta anytime soon.

The thing is, you'd actually get more scaling for some weapons, while also keeping atop the metashittery with your 40/40 refined bullfuck. There's still no downside to your 40/40 except a little less stamina. And since you're a melee, you don't really need more than 2 ringslots, making it able to go even 60/60 with knight and hunter.

Is the Carthus Bloodring worth a slot for a SL119 dual-wielder? My defense without it is 149 for everything, 33.550 absorption for physical. With it on it drops to 23.582 absorption.

>>145004387

>>145004237
Only 2. You need 16 to swing 3 times.

>>145004237
You only get 2 swings, but 1 should be enough to kill most lowbies, and you can go for a staggerstab after you run out of stamina.

I'm not saying Refined should be nerfed but Heavy and Sharp really should be more useful if we want to see SOME variety in build some time in the future.

yeah

usually you get around 5 points worth of endurance, you can just lower endurance shuffle the bonus around either way if you don't need any more. The +1 ring is for sure going to be as good if not better than any +5statpoint ring, and hp multipliers are always nice.

Now that I've reached the end of the game with three different characters versed in each of the three primary elemental schools, i'd have to say that Pyromancy is the most effective over Sorcery and Miracles. Its the strongest against the most of PvE and it also comes with scaling in Dark. Fitting since it is also the most expensive to invest into stat point wise.

Miracles are better overall for buffing and Sorcery has practical spells and tricks, but Pyro is the best in terms of raw power and damage.

wrong
pyro is the best in terms of versatility, you have all elemental weapon types to exploit enemy weaknesses, you can charm enemies, you can deal good damage
sorcery has the largest amount of raw power and direct attack spells, also two great special weapons
miracles are better for healing

That's assuming Warrior. With 10 extra points you can get to 10 attn and 15 faith, but you'll still be out of denial range because 93FP and one slot. Cleric start gets you to 122 with 44/40/60/10. I guess you can just go 44/30.

You mean 44 vig? The amount of damage you'd gain per fight by leveling up dex on a D scaling weapon is probably going to be greater than the amount of health you gain with your last five or so points of vigor there friend. Even if you have life +3 and favor +2, I'm pretty sure all the points after 40 give 19 hp or less.

If you haven't leveled dex up yet, you'll get like 3 extra points of damage on a D scaling weapon. If you hit someone at least seven times in a fight, you're dealing that three extra damage seven times, meaning you opponents HP is 21 points lower than it otherwise would be. Going that high with your vigor is pretty useless unless you're already are killing people in just one or two hits or can't add any more str/dex

44 is the last hardcap, and it puts you inside the 1800 hp range. Most people do not go for it, though. Also that was a suggestion for a Yhorm's GM build, so no dex scaling.

With the Weapon Art Buff active the Crystal Chime actually has a higher Spell Buff than the Court Sorcerer's Staff.

Where is location can I have find that the Giant Dad safe file everyone has talking about??

>>145006738

50/50 with the Crystal Chime and Pyromancy Flame.

Let's you cast every spell in the game, with basically no damage loss due to the scaling on Crystal Chime.

It's pretty good, if only because you can mix up magic. Chaos infusions are also great.

ALRIGHT BOYS. I have a shitty amd apu and i'm having this hitbox glitch that ties the hitbox to where the enemy spawns instead of their model. I got the game at release+dlc. I haven't beena ble to play it because of that big tree dude that you fall through the floor half way, so is there any way I could get some anons to carry me past that.

Depends a bit.

The pure magic one is SL 125. The hybrid one is SL 135.

If you want, you can drop down to SL 120 on the magic one by losing 5 FTH and only lose a tiny bit of damage, as no miracles needs more than 45 FTH.

If I just want to wreck faggots at 120, when should I stop leveling, like 125 or 130?

Top kek.

It doesn't matter what the SL meta is. Magic builds currently need 100 levels or more to be even remotely competitive in duels. You can build glass cannon and have lots of success in invasions with stealth OHKO's, but you'll get rekt in duels, as this game promotes having shitloads of stamina and HP like no other.

Emit Force isn't meant for damage. In fact, it does very little. It's meant to be a long-range version of Force.

In other words, yes, you're good.

>>145008603

Sure.

Your only viable stuff will be fire surge cheese and Witch's lock though.

Though that applies to pyromancers at all SL's.

Twinblades in general were shitty and ineffective due to low damage (dex scaling was shit in ds2) long startup, low range and generally awkward moveset.
Sorceror's Twinblade in particular was absolute irredeemable trash because of the already high stat investment (20/20) which no self-respecting sorceror was going to waste points on when more useful weapons like MLGS cost less.
Also it was shit as a catalyst, so why even bother.
Twinblades were a fucking mistake

>>145008490
what event is this anyway?

>>145009089
The only twinblade in the game that scaled primarily with dex was the curved twinblade, which was the only bad one.

Stone was strength-leaning quality and an excellent weapon
Regular Twinblade was pure quality and extremely good owing to its low stamina costs
Santier's was a non-scaling weapon with crazy high base damage and even after its nerf remained excellent all-around
Red Iron Twinblade was a pure str twinblade, as well as being literally the DaS2 darksword.

>>145009249
+10 estoc sucks for low level anon. You have to infuse them with fire/chaos or lightning since these infusions just add huge base damage in DaS1.

>>145009362
They're doing a global restart day, where everyone restarts DaS in an attempt to breath life back into the game since 3 is not much better putting greephics aside.

I'd say 3 had fewer terrible bosses than 1 and more good bosses than 2.

though the "fewer terrible bosses" thing is a little questionable I guess if you count all of the big demons in ds3 as actual bosses like they were in 1. They all went down pretty quick for me, I just now realized I didn't even think of them as bosses. I don't think they were even in the boss poll.

So, based on pure PVP mechanics, DS1 is obviously the winner right? I mean, deadangles were the most satisfying thing to land.

The only memorable bosses and i use memorable loosely for 3 might be dancer and all the LoC plus SoC. Other than that it was goddamn large thing just die already so i can keep moving.

>>145009543
Its most glaring flaws right now are:
Balance
Invasion mechanics (a subcategory of balance)
Build diversity (related to balance but also to available variety of weapons/spells)
Variety within a given build
Endgame substance

Balance is pretty self-evident, and will be gradually dealt with through patching, just like 2.
More content and better balance will help make build diversity better. Right now we're stuck in the DaS1 paradigm where "int" and "fth" are just "quality + buff" and strength is just "the bad weapons" while dex is just "quality with less damage."

Spell variety is one of the game's biggest glaring issues, and while I expect balance will assuage it somewhat, even if every existing spell was pvp viable, there still aren't enough spells. DLC desperately needs to dump a larger variety of spell options to keep casters fun and interesting.

And due to Miyazaki's flash of brilliance in reducing the difficulty of literally every area of the game prior to Lothric Castle, the game's pve lacks difficulty and substance, and the point where it gets difficult is so late that you're almost completely out of content. Another 10-20 hours worth of playtime set at Lopthric Castle/Grand Archives difficulty would really round out pve and make it more worthwhile, double so if it's available early for sequence-breaking options.

The linearity of pve is another major flaw but there's exactly 0 chance that it will be fixed at all whatsoever.

No, mound-makers are the only cool covenant. But the only unique thing about them is their color. You'll hardly use their signs, and when they invade, they just have an easier time winning.

Gravelord and Rats are similar as in, they're amazing ideas implemented very poorly but which could easily be used again with all the feedback they got.

>>145010931

Not even remotely close. Mound Makers are like a weird fucked up hybrid of Dragon, Red and Sunbro covenants.

Ratbro/Gravelord focused on luring other people into YOUR world. Gravelord did it by fucking the victim's world up with super powerful black phantom enemies, and Ratbro did it by just forcibly making them invade you and run through your bullshit semi-custom trap gauntlet.

>>145011173
>random faith requirement
not at all
it has a unique WA too

>>145010385
Yeah, but a bunch of the memorable bosses from 1 were only memorable for how bad they were. DLC aside, anything after O&S was bad. Ceaseless, centipede, pinwheel, and butterfly were also all really poorly done. Gaping was kinda bad too, but looking for the Channelers was kinda fun at least. Iron Golem was only entertaining because of Tarkus hype, it would have been way more fun if he were standing inside Sen's fortress actively trying to knock you off of shit.

Actually I think you needed the lordvessel from O&S to fight centipede anyway, I can't remember

DaS1 wasn't best in any regard.

PVP? DaS2 is best.
PVE? Bloodborne is the best.
Lore? Bloodborne again.
Music? Either DaS3 or Bloodborne.

Demon's Souls was groundbreaking when it came out. Dark Souls came and extended that groundwork but was a worse game because once you beat Anor Londo the creativity sinks like a stone. It becomes a genuinely boring game, with the Duke's Archives trying to bring it back up but not being enough. Demon's Souls, Dark Souls 2 and 3, and especially Bloodborne all maintain their quality consistently throughout the experience. They don't have "those" areas that are a chore to play through and designed in a boring way. People put DaS1 on a pedestal because it's the first taste of the series they played since it's multiplat, and/or because it was the first to be mainstream and they got caught up in the fever pitch of hype after launch. Dark Souls 1 was very clearly unfinished, and Miyazaki didn't put his heart into it the same way he did with Bloodborne.

There's none like that in the game sadly

If you stop leveling or upgrading weapons you don't really have anything to spend them on.
If all you do is invade you're very unlikely to ever lose your souls.

I did it! Level 28 now. On to the Four Kings.
They're weak to lightning, right?

>>145011582
Pvp gets you a ton of souls over time, and if a red kills you they get rewarded a set number of souls based on your level, and vice versa
Nobody loses anything unless they fail to retrieve their bloodstain before dying a second time.

The memorable bosses for me were arty, gywn, O&S, Seath due to silent footsteps making it seem like the game had depth and blighttown's framerate. Other than that, same boat. A lot of stuff sucked shit, just as 3 does.

Aldritch is pretty much Rat covenant,

No pulling them to your world, but the odds are massively stacked in your favour.

I agree, deadangles were satisfying, but the backstab game in DaS1 was too pressuring in my opinion, some weapons were too punishing for small mistakes.

Yes. Although a lot of the "mechanics" were exploits or flat out glitches, it ended up being the most fast paced and complex game in the series.

It's a shame that they "fixed" so many things from DaS1 in later games without adding any legitimate options that served the same purpose.

>>145011829
Unless they seed or have 3 phantoms where it'll be 4 vs 3 or so

>>145011829
Yeah and? It's not about the odds.
It's just a regular area defense covenant. I want to trigger traps, not have some faggot deacons and SKs snipe my hosts half the time.

>>145011697
I want photo evidence of this

though as I recall I think the back rim of the nameless glove actually does have a different shape, but I'm pretty sure the actual diameter across the length of the glove is identical.

Anyone who bitches about ring swaps are just bitches who can't do it themselves.

>Dark Souls 2 and 3, and especially Bloodborne all maintain their quality consistently throughout the experience. They don't have "those" areas that are a chore to play through and designed in a boring way.
That's bullshit. Most of 2 is either bad or so lacking in level design it's mind-numbing boring and 3 has the road leading to Road of Sacrifices and Farron. Also, DaS is unmatched in level design overall.

In 70 odd Aldritch invasions, I've seen maybe 4 seeds.

>it's the 10th

I want gravelording in 3, would make NG+ way better

Can you make a somewhat viable mage at SL80?

I mean, 60 Int/24 Att and you have no points left for anything else.

People will probably still tag your sign just for novelty even if you can't meddle in their world
try the anor londo bridge right before the rotating elevator

>>145011884
I always like the last clip of him running on the edge of the bridge and the guy putting the shield up.
But this just looks like backstab: the game. How is that any better than caestus parry?
