No, Mound Makers are great, they're the only covenants that seems to have had some kind of thought put into them. I actually would have liked the Wall as the covenants leader since an inanimate object has a kind of odd charm to it (Covenant of Champions/DS1 Sunbros), but it's brought down because the rest are shit, and Yorska being the only actual NPC covenant leader

Finish what you started, it's a hassle now, but the end is good. You might also still have the DLC to do.
You can get still multiplayer in all of them, DaS1 is only harder beause you absolutely need mods to do it on PC.

All of them change how equip load/stamina consumption/roll i-frames/poise/upgrade paths/stats work. These are all essential for combat so try not to swap around too much.

Feel free to go into 3 since you hardly lose much of its plot by skipping 2, but 2 is worth playing once.

Is it me or is the Emerald Herald pretty fucking stacked? Different design team than DaS1, I know, but it seems kinda odd given the genre.

>>146905505
>dat hitbox porn

>>146905628
What's it even supposed to do though? That way is more optimised since you can ToD for a duel, invasion, or normally for PvE as you usually only need one or two ToD per bonfire. Also grants more fire resist and less dark, fire being more common in game.

>>146905723
That touch bloodstain on, though. Gee I wonder what happened there.

>>146904093

In all seriousness, and completely regardless of build:

Carthus Bloodring is SO underrated.

It's so underrated it hurts my fucking souls.

Absorption is fucking pointless in this game but rolling iframes are infinite value. Rolls are so broken, not making them even more broken for basically no downside is a fucking sin.

I shouldn't even say this because I don't want it to get out but I fucking love you guys too much.

Highwall, dsgtrade

>>146906531
How many embers? I've got 16 on me or something like that.

>>146906209

Instead of 3-shotted? Okay. I'd rather have the ability to be all the more unhittable in the first place by ultra weapons considering how fucking slow they are in the first place, which makes such a suggestion all the more laughable. The whole point in ultra weapon matchups is that they can't hit you in the first place, and if you're actually suggesting greatswords are "great" then I'd suggest you kys.

Also we're literally talking the difference between 25% and 15% absorption here, hardly -5% absorption or some shit. Same with hornet ring big weapon swap ripostes: you're probably already dead, and also dumb/not paying attention, if you get hit with one of those.

I'm honestly much more concerned with straight and curved sword roll catches tbqh. Enjoy getting eaten alive by those instead I guess. Not getting hit by anything at all seems much more advantageous to me than tanking 1-2 more hits, but do what you want my nignog. Rolling attack builds benefit in particular, but honestly I believe pretty much every single build benefits, at least in duels (and if you're doing SL100-120 duels in DS3 I feel bad for you).

p-please respond

>>146906009
Bloodring being broken is well known at this point. The only reason more people don't use it is that passive play rarely requires you actually roll enough to have it matter, and aggressive play loses to passive play.

It mainly just hardcounters weapons that are already not very good and allows passive players to take a few more risks against other passive players.

>>146906231

On the one hand, I hope you're right. On the other hand, at least considering my own experience with SL120 duels, I highly doubt that. I also have no idea how you'd "find out" someone is using it, it's a pretty damn subtle effect. I'd think a carthus crutch sword user would be more likely to blame lag or his own incompetence when he missed the roll catch, and even if he did find out, the match would probably already be over.

t. gotthards scumlord.

>>146905810
It's supposed to get carried through PvE. Maybe be able to defend itself from an invader long enough for phantoms to deal with invader.

There was an old guy with limited coordination and reflexes a couple threads back who had trouble progressing through the game even with help. I tried to think of a build so that even someone like him would be able to finish a playthrough.

I asked for help fine tuning it multiple times but Lucy was literally the only person to actually help fine tune it with Mugen link.

>>146906854
>It mainly just hardcounters weapons that are already not very good and allows passive players to take a few more risks against other passive players.

I disagree. Its uses against carthus crutch sword and straight sword R1 spam is invaluable. Roll catching in general. Honestly, just sit there and consider how insane CCS's roll catching ability is, or people who are really really *REALLY* good at straight sword single R1 roll catches against people "panic rolling". If you've actually played for at least a couple hundred hours doing duels, think for a second how problematic that can be when you're facing someone who knows what they're doing in this regard.

But whatever, don't believe me. I'm offering advice at my own expense here, obviously I don't want to face other people using it all the time. Actually please don't use it, you're fine without it. You're the best, anon. I'm just crazy and stupid.

>>146906009
I've used blood ring since I found it and never taken it off since.

I used flip ring and 0 poise in das1 so it suits my playstyle.

But blood ring would be bad on that build that you're linking too for reasons

>>146907249

I didn't link to any build and don't even know the build involved in the discussion btw, I'm a different anon. Bloodring is my baby tho, and it's so rarely appreciated I can't help but get giddy when someone mentions it around here. We're also a pretty small community so I'm not really worried about sharing secrets here with fellow anons, even though potentially those secrets get out to reddit or whatever somehow.

I mean, if you could actually back up your greentext with math on how a 10% damage absorption makes a significant difference (not flat defense, but absorption) compared to increased rolling iframes (about 10 more at 60FPS), I'd love to hear it.

Full set alone without minmaxed armor calculating is almost enough to compete with sets much heavier than it at taking damage

It also has very high fire resist and decent lightning resist

It's not. Lothric Knight Shield is better than Silver Knight if you actually want medium shield parry frames. I'll leave it up to you to google that shit.

>>146908197

Same with you, google that shit. Generally speaking it's about staying as close to 70% equip load as you can while still avoiding fatrolling and maintaining fashion. Thorn gauntlets/pants are probably a good idea considering tears of denial faggots.

Not the guy you were babbling to about your gay love for the bloodring

>>146906893
Well then, my point still stands, he could do all that from the safety of a bonfire and living one more hit through your shield against something like the dancer could be enough for the phantom to save him.

That build is stupid though because 120 isn't what someone in that situation would level up to at all, that is because they'd finish the game much earlier and the amoun of time needed to grind such build would bore that person out of dark souls soon enough.

Here's how I'd make it.
Pyromancer start- fire gem
The tutorial is the only part of the game you'll have to do solo, for this, you can ignore every enemy but Iudex, against whom you can use fire spells + firebombs in the second phase for exra damage.

Fire infuse a SS of your choice. This is crucial because of fire damage having other uses that buy you time. First levels should be enough for base weapon stats then rest into vig non stop for a while. Assuming you can't password, you'll have to keep your level to certain points to get summons, so my sugestion is to end at 80-100, I'll link a level 90 build. But you could remove and add points evenly into damage/vigor/endurance.
The weapons shown are some possible picks, with GFS being ideal for this sort of build given how its tracking would help as well as inate fire damage and making better of of Leo. Anyhting refined should also get a chaos infused version for situational uses.

Should the player desire NG+ and beyond, just keep leveling end and str/dex as needed. End should be far less of a priority than his build made to be.

https://www.mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/49742

>>146909532

Yeah Straight Swords ironically have some of the most variety within their own weapon class. Anri's is for Luck, the Dark Sword is great pure DPS but has lacking R2s and weapon art, Lothric Knight Sword is for Leo Ring pokes, Sunlight Straight Sword has its (useless) self-buff, Barbed/Morion Blade for bleeding, and the rest are pretty much useless but still offers more then most weapon classes. There's literally no difference between any of the Curved Greatsword movesets beyond the Old Wolf's WA.

>>146906871
I don't do duels, that's boring, so I run into bloodring far less. Also didn't see any during the few FCs I had with /dsg/, but any anon from here is welcome to prove me wrong.

>>146908826
I was really interested in the weapon arts after seeing what was pulled off in bloodborne with the tricks and shit. At first WAs were cool but they old really fast and are basically restricted to weapon classes as well tied to the mana bar AS WELL AS being useless in most situations ex: stomp and charge.

A big problem overall is that nothing really big was brought to the table for the final souls game. You could probably tell some poor sod that its more Das1 dlc and they would believe it.

Even if I suddenly get bored tomorrow, 300 hours is still money well spent imho. Still, I think you should consider how much time you've put into the game thus far, all of you.

So i'm pretty sure that my composite bow's arrows were homing onto invader right now instead of shooting straight.
The fuck.

>>146910519

I would agree, the only reasons the top-tier weapons are what they are is because they render other weapons in their class obsolete. Just to use as an example, the Carthus Curved Sword has the best reach of all curved swords, and has the same great moveset as most other curved swords, and the only curved sword that outdamages it I believe is a 40/40 Refined Falchion by a few points of AR. And it has bleed on top of that. It just has everything going for it while other Curved Swords have next to nothing.

>>146911878

>>146911256

offline, literally anything. oddly enough i found silver knight straight sword to be absolute best when it came to smaller weapons, silver knight shield being one of the better medium shields too

>>146911670
Hitting an NPC once doesn't aggro them immediately, though. That's true of every interactable NPC.

This is new FC anon, something came up. Sorry guys. I'll try to get back soon unless the other guy starts hosting before me.

To the people who summon 3 Phantoms to fight a boss, I have to know. Why?

Having that many people makes the boss so much more difficult simply because you have gone out of your way to max out his health pool. He still hits just as hard, and now if you are dumb enough to screw up again and die, you simply delayed the inevitable. And god forbid one of the phantoms dies, the bosses difficulty skyrockets for the same reasons; you maxed out his health pool, he hits just as hard, and now you have one less precious phantom to keep him occupied.

Seriously, you only ever need one phantom if you need help that badly.

>look at DS3 twitch streams
>Peeve, a big dark souls streamer, pretty much isn't streaming DS3 anymore and when he is, he just dies a lot and complains that he's tired the whole time

>suddenly have that "why am I even supporting this asshole, when it literally only benefits him?" moment.

And that's when I realized why I should stop going to Twitch altogether and just play the games myself instead. Thanks, Peeve. Hope those twitchbux support you in your elder years you fucking faggot.

chaos blade will poop on sk sword damage and iron round shield deflects attacks and sk shield doesn't

Farron Greatsword has the same moveset when I 2-hand and 1-hand it? Why?

Man, how skinny do you have to be to not have the Lothric armour make you look like a fatass?

>>146911901

I agree, but the answer isn't to make the CCS worse, it's to make the Falchion and other CCS better. Further still, better in DIFFERENT ways. If you want X, you go with the carthus. If you want Y, you go with the Falchion instead. If you want Z, you go with the Pontiff Knight Curved Sword. Etc, etc, etc.

That said, 300 hours in and I still am fine with playing with meta weapons, and the base game was fun, so I can't really complain. I mean it'd be the perfect game if they'd just balance things, but I'm totally fine with working with meta weapons in the meantime, know what I mean? It's not like there are only 2-3 meta weapons.

>>146912358
SK sword doesn't kill you though

>>146912090
I want to summon 5 reds and lead them against the NG+7 crocodogs once, it'll be amazing.

>>146912294
I suppose in my experience PvE'ing bosses the people who summon that many phantoms are the ones who aren't looking to make it more fun, rather they just think that 3 phantoms + host can steamroll any boss

The main bosses I like to help on are Dragonslayer Armour and Nameless King. Both of which are hyper aggressive heavy hitters, so summoning 3 people just turns them into hyper aggressive tanks

>>146909692
I think the end helps with high stability shield but I'd have to test it.

Thanks for the input though.

>>146912649
That sounds really humorous actually

remember when we had consistently alive fight clubs?

>>146912952
Not even in DaS1 was this the case.
An "alive" fightclub in DaS1 meant 3 or so regulars cycling in and out of rotation with 5+ minute wait times, and its' never really been any better.

>>146912487

I didn't mean we should nerf the Carthus (even if I personally think a slight reduction in base AR would make it perfectly balanced) but you get the intent of what I mean, the weapons within a class should ideally each have a niche to fit different builds and purposes. Fuck the Falchion and Pontiff Knight Curved sword aren't even bad, it's just the Carthus is slightly better in every way. Now shit like the Painting Guardian Sword, that's awful.

>I mean it'd be the perfect game if they'd just balance things, but I'm totally fine with working with meta weapons in the meantime, know what I mean? It's not like there are only 2-3 meta weapons.

I don't use meta weapons but I don't actually mind the weapons themselves, I'd argue right now the most OP shit is leagues away from how OP things in early 1 and 2 are like Helixodon. My main problems is the lack of niche weapons as said already, which was one of the few things Dark Souls 2 did right, and how terrific quality/refined compared to everything else. But I think by the time the DLC rolls around we'll get some better balancing and enough things to shake the meta up to keep things interesting for a while, it's just by now with 100+ hours in it's starting to blend together, but like you said it's a good base game all the same.

>>146912807
That's why you have the raport + hidden body, so when you do need to shield, it's rare. 7 extra points gives you around 15 endurance, which won't hold back many more hits.

She has a totally different design concept. The Maiden in Black, the Plain Doll and the Firekeeper were all pretty clearly designed to be ethereal beings that are sympathetic due to being weak-looking, frail, innocent women, but still alien or off-putting in some way (this is particularly pronounced with the Plain Doll). Shanalotte, on the other hand, has a much more earthy design. Not only is she thicker, giving her more of the earth goddess look than the slender girly look, but she has thick brown (red?) hair and a fairly normal voice. She was clearly designed more like a regular person that just happens to have a very important job and/or dark past, whereas the other three I mentioned are designed to not seem entirely human, with the Firekeeper as a possible exception.

I mean hell, when you get right down to it, Shanalotte is the only one that has an actual name, rather than just being known by her title.

No port incoming. Only bu the PS4 if other games there also interest you or you got cash to spare, BB is very good but not worth it if you don't want anything else.

>>146918383
is this on PC?

Gotta say, I think she's my favorite level-up lady design, I really like the green and red she had going on. Still annoyed you couldn't get it, I would have loved that cape.

Oops

Chosen Ashen Bearer Slayer Undead of the Cursed Demon One

So two things consistent across all fromsotf dlcs so far have been:
An entity which makes an important appearance in the main game and has associated bosses will be expanded/ a primary focus (DaS1: The Abyss, DaS2: Iron King, Children of Dark, BB: The Church)
And that a character who was explicitly mentioned within the games lore will make an appearance as a boss
(DaS1: Artorias, DaS2: Raime, Alonne, BB: Ludwig, Laurence, Kos)

So which entity from DaS3 do you think is the best candidate to be expanded on in the dlc, and which character that mentioned but never appeared is most likely to become a boss?

>>146918687
Get rid of the candlestick too. I'm alright with the rings but I don't want to be forced to wear the crown or candlestick

Literally what the fuck do I have to do against this faggot's 2nd phase? He keeps spamming his shitty spells and it's one-shotting me.

In dark souls 2 when you sit at a bonfire and have the warp screen open. It shows you what areas have high activity for your match making range.

Firekeep is my favorite. You're right in that there's nothing inherently unsettling about her, she's pretty plain, but I became more sympathetic to her and her role when I finally looked around the tower where you get her set. I knew they were corpses but I didn't notice they were all wearing the same thing.
It made me fairly uncomfortable for some reason, like they're so disposable.

>>146919068
The poison wore out, though.

Who do they mention besides
Dragonslayer who we fight
Alva's two bitches
Morne
Pontiff and crystal sage teacher
Beast that destroyed Astora

>>146919234
I thought the consensus was that she was "supposed" to be Gwynevere?

She's probably not. Just some odd slug lady.

Say that to my face not online and see what happens

>>146918687
Make the two tiers of each casting damage rings incompatible
Make the Scholar's Candlestick only supply its bonus if you meet the fth requirement
Make the dusk crown behave like clutch rings in pvp: cut the damage bonus in half and increase the penalty by 50%

Increase the damage of all casting types proportionally to compensate. Sorcery should do as much damage with just the bellowing dragoncrest ring as it formerly did with bellowing + young + dusk crown + scholar's candlestick. Candlestick then further increases that damage at the expense of wasted points in fth and the loss of an offhand weapon option.

Anyone else who went into Wet Footwear 1 blind found the game a lot easier after realizing that the roll had invulnerability frames?

>>146919415
Well isn't that item hidden? Not everyone finds it
>>146919249
Can't remember how long it was in game but it definitely got added around the time all the dlcs came

>>146919658
what

>>146919461
Evil eye has been around since DaS1.
The sage teacher is just Logan.
Alva's bitches are Karla and Zullie who either reincarnated or is gone.

>>146919658
Probably everyone ever.

Well, I guess that's it for FC. Thanks to anyone who dropped by for a bit.

>>146919814
Thank you for hosting, sorry about the worm

Any reason a riposte would do 1200 damage on someone with a BKS without hornet on? They were wearing solaires set

>>146919995
Probably wearing something like the Lightning Clutch Ring so they could try to deal more damage with offensive lightning miracles

>>146919750
Those are the only characters I can think of that are mentioned and not seen in game besides
Ocelot
Gywnevere
Lothric queen
Dark fire keeper

Which else is mentioned? Gertrude

You don't even have to do anything to have fun invading.

>we'll never see animated gwynetitties in HD

>>146919461
Excluding references from previous games we have:
Former owner of the Dragonslayer Armour
Gertrude and/or the Heavenly Messenger she was visited by
Morne (possibly with Caitha, though she's a DaS2 reference)
Soulfeeder
That inventor who makes explosive/splintering bolts
Ocelotte, I guess

Probably a few other's I'm forgetting but none that are notable.

I strongly suspect Gertrude's corpse is the one in the cage that we loot Divine Pillars from, so I think Morne is the most likely candidate.

>>146919415
>>146919709
Okay I finally got him. I had the silver pendant but never bothered using it.

Almost done with DS1 now. I think the only 2 bosses I have is Kalameet and Gwyn.

>>146920251
holy shit I just realized eygon is not actually named morne and has his own name.

>>146920360
Oh man, you latecomers missed out on pre-nerf Amana on release.

Playing through DaS2 after platinuming DaS3 has made me appreciate what the """"""""B-Team"""""""" did. At least they tried to evolve the formula. The torch mechanics, Flame Butterflies, scaling armor, durability that actually matters, Doom-esque secret doors in the walls, the Pharros stones...these are all neat ideas that feel like they're moving the series forward. So why did Miyazaki take them out of 3? 3 feels like a "Bloodborne Mod" for Dark Souls 1 with no poise, enemies with 50-hit combos, and huge iframes.

I'm having a lot of trouble with Aldritch, but goddamn he is a fun boss fight. He really makes up for the shit that was the Yhorm "fight."

>>146920251
>Gertrude and/or the Heavenly Messenger she was visited by

That's honestly what I hope what they cover the most in the dlc, the introduction of the angels seemed like such a left field thing to me, unlike anything else in the series. Going further into that would be most welcome to me.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if we went to Londor.

What about DLC NPCs?
I strongly suspect the third black hand will be one. If it involves time travel, I could see any of the LoC also appearing as such.

If From is too retarded I bet they'll put Ornstein because lol fanservice. I really hope not.

Because it's a cashgrab that was rushed. It reuses 99% of it's assets from DaS1, DaS2, and Bloodborne. I swear the Old Demon King's Ruins are straight out of a Chalice Dungeon.

>>146920498
I agree with you. DS2 was decent, and the dlc was my favorite in the series.
