It's not like you keep constantly seeing the backstab animations so you don't really need that many there.

You can get him to invade (in Irithyll) without ever doing Yuria's questline. The pilgrim assassin shows up regardless, and as long as you kill her the pale shade will invade.

Why are you still playing dark souls PvP, /dsg/?

Honestly I feel more sorry for Jund, and other people who have basically dedicated their lives to gitting gud at this game. They don't get to leave even though they're self aware it's shit and their "skills" are entirely meaningless compared to "real" e-sports/fighting games.

If you have twinaxes there's no need to use a greataxe.

Washing Pole is end-game, but you can get the Uchigatana from a bog standard merchant in one of the earlier areas.

All other katanas are also end-game, except for the Iaito equivalent which you get around the middle.

Dark Souls 1, undoubtedly.

The moment you land in firelink you can feasibly walk all the way to the fucking bottom of the world and join Path of the Dragon. That's fucking incredible.

You can go almost anywhere you want and the game won't stop you because you're a big boy and you can suffer the consequences, you cheeky fuck.

Dark Souls as a game is just as fun when you're running into area you're too weak for and pillaging goodies under the noses of angry mobs that will one-shot you. Makes repeat playthroughs infinitely more interesting and fun.

Not quite sure if it was just a fluke or something because I have literally no idea how after three more games the developers still fail to replicate it.

I fucking HATE how you have to warp back to Majula/Firelink to do anything in 2 and 3. Because warping is there from the start, you can essentially level up/reinforce/whatever from any bonfire, same as 1, but you have to go through 2 loading screens plus dialogue to do so.

I understand they were trying to go for DeS, but DeS had god-tier level design and warping/leveling was meaningful since archstones were so sparse. You got used to infrequent level-ups since you weren't even able to do so until killing Phalanx.

>>147464164
DaS3 is mechanically more difficult, but easier for new players to start and learn through.

DaS1's vaunted difficulty comes from the barrier to entry and how unforgiving it was to players that simply didn't know better because they had just started. DaS3 does a much better job of teaching the player in its early segments, but enemies and combat encounters are more mechanically complex and enemies generally stronger. However, DaS1 didn;t have any weapon as ridiculously strong earlygame as the DaS3 longsword. That shit makes even the stronger enemies fucking trivial due to its comically high damage and low stamina consumption.

>>147464218
IIRC, they mentioned in an interview that they received a great deal of criticism and negative fan feedback from the first game due to how open-ended it was.
Casual gamers had difficulty figuring out where to go, and the open-endedness could end up with players placing themselves unwittingly in untenable situations because they simply didn't know any better.

I remember watching a friend play through DaS1 for the first time. They took the master key because it sounded useful, and using it, without any knowledge of the game or what they were doing or where they were going, headed straight down from Firelink to Blighttown to the Great Hollow. After dying a dozen times on their way down the hollow, they got cursed in Ash Lake and were stuck in the hopeless position of having 1/2 HP at base level and being forced to trek back up from the Ash lake bonfire to Firelink, with every enemy along the way now able to 1-shot them.

They spent 2 hours alone unable to even make it back up to blighttown and then gave up and made a new character.

>>147464540
That means nothing

>>147464739

Anyway, I haven't PvP'd yet on this character but the Spear feels a bit too.. "speary" for my taste, I prefer weapons with more variety than only 1 type of move (thrusts in this case). And the Witch's Lock is sort of fun but the WA is just asking to be backstabbed and it has no hyperarmor at any point in the animation it seems so a slight sneeze in my general direction will cancel the super long windup time.

>>147465189
You want finish at least the Depth 3 Pthumeru because you will get 18% gems there.

>yfw solaire is the sandworm
woah............

>>147465348
Nah, the best time to do it is once you have a +9 or 10 weapon and Mensis gems. Rushing it right after Amelia is only really recommended if you are trying to rush one of the weapons, like the saif for example.

>>147465189
In NG+ for some actual difficulty otherwise prepare for a snoozefest with the only boss that is hard was Orphan

>>147465238
It's just to help against ocasional hits from fast shit like kats, daggers and SS. Specially for surprise Witch locks WA since the 2h moveset sucks.

>>147465425
you're not using locks correctly
that shit shines for dealing with running opponents, dealing damage through solid objects like pillars and dealing insane chip damage through shields on WA, best use it as a secondary weapon to support your main playstyle

What does vitality do besides raise defense and what are some good soft caps for it?

>>147465189
You can access the DLC as soon as Amelia dies.
The early part of the DLC is fairly easy, and can be taken on at this point without much issue. There's a tonne of loot and weapons and content packed into the first area that are worth going in for.

The first boss will likely be too difficult for you at this stage (though it can be worth a try if you like a challenge), but you can access a tonne of fun gear and loot before reaching it, and then just come back later to finish the rest of the dlc while you're stronger.

Don't wait too long, though. While the DLC is harder than the main game's endgame content, endgame gear is still stronger than what the dlc is balanced for and you can ruin it for yourself by coming in with a +10 weapon and steamrolling everything.

Raises equipload. It's a waste. Avoid leveling it. Only raise it if you need to fast roll and don't want to give up any of the gear you are using. Even then, only level it enough to get you under 70% load.

>>147465668

I'm simply wondering what my options are. I'm definitely going to try both the lock and spear in actual pvp, it's just that my pve experience with them has had me doubt their strength.

>>147465603
I guess that's fair I guess, still need to find that main weapon unless I start enjoying the spear more.

>>147465645
That's why I thought I'd go 130-142 to even the playing field. I've only made SL 20, 50, 60 and 70 PvP characters so far and at those SL's casters get fucked even harder.

People were talking about a stealth-nerf in the latest patch.

That not only the damage of buffs on the weapon art were reduced but also the combo in itself.

How many chaos gems are you guaranteed per ng?

>>147465939
You could go 80 with a pyro and get good enough stats that you can easily 2 shot phantoms and 3 shot hosts with vestiges and avoid the shitters in the 120 area
120 and above are literally twitch tier and YT video tier metas anyone who plays them knows this and it's just a plain fact now, but at SL80 you have more room to survive ganks, duel against different type of builds and even participate in fight clubs where a hornet parry won't be the end of you
but that's my experience at least on console I hear PC is where alot of the 120 twitch streams are so I can't speak for that outside of what I've heard

But go ahead and keep defending it, I really don't care because it's 4chan and I enjoy my 80 meta and playing against people who actually play the game for fun and not some competitive bullshit.

I never said you couldn't make them at 80. I said that they are completely outclassed and not worth using in duels at level 80. There is a world of difference.

But they aren't completely outclassed.
An 80 pyro with swamp/witch ring still has the ability to 2 shot phantoms and 3 shot hosts at 30/30 and withstand a barrage of shit with 27-30 VIG
The matter boils down to skill at lower levels, anybody can pick up a estoc/dark sword or card captor and be doing a million damage at 120, but at 80 you need to know how to use them or you get punished.

If the person is retarded, 40 more levels at 120 won't stop them from dying, and being level 80 doesn't change that

Considering neutered casters, mediocre pyros, and minmaxed quality niggers without attunement are level 80's claim to fame I'd say Card Captor is probably more powerful there.

But really, it's not my place to say what's the meta or not, I leave to people who lurk these threads to decide where fun is.

Seriously though if you think that people just stand around waiting to get swung at especially with pyro build are playing then you're the one who deserves to get killed because I've never had that issue of r1 spammed, and even if I do get caught offguard I still can find ways to come out on top since my spells are good enough to deal high dmg to the host. It's really about skill at lower levels more specifically 80.

It was pre-ds2.

>>147468895

>>147468495
You're an idiot. Do you really think that because the meta is level 120, people don't also have lower leveled characters for co-op and random invasions? You know you have have more than one character, right?

Again, there is no variety at level 80 duels. At that level, Quality has such a large advantage that there is no reason to use anything else. At 120, you have enough stats to play with that other builds can stand a chance in duels.

>>147468678
If two people with the same skill level fight then the one with better build will win, and at level 80, Quality builds are best by a massive margin.

and discarded

>>147468678
Same here but I have to say that the 120 bracket is far more forgiving for a caster when invading.

I've been 2shotted by some hosts but also 1shotted some people with CSS or GCFB which makes it fun.

Only thing I dislike about that SL is that I can't afford to invest in stats that would allow me to wield a nice weapon without compromising my casting effectiveness.

>he can't take the heat

>>147469094
I said what I do. I'll only call someone like that if they got sonething like a mimic head, otherwise, I'll look for casters, bows or sonething like spears or axes.

psh..nothin personnel...PYRO....

I didn't say that, I'm just wondering why it happens

>>147469367
>he beat the boss but can't dodge its attacks

Don't tell me that you summoned to kill it in the first place.

>>147469367
Cause you are a pussy.
Bosses love pussies like you.

Is there a blessed weapon resin equivalent?

>he missed the only lord you're teleported to

>>147469439
I mean truly a battle mage really only wants to use the MLGS especially now, but there are other weapons that can useful follow-ups

>>147468996
>level 80 duels
I've destroyed far more people as pyro at SL85 duels than the times I've lost. Haven't tried dueling as a sorcerer though.

>>147469452
Personally I'll look for something that complements my playstyle. If I'm playing a tanky melee character I'll put the skull ring on and look for a caster or the like.

>Run through Irithyll and Irithyll dungeon embered and in offline mode
>neither Londor Pale Shade nor Alva invades

What's going on?

>>147469176
>But my set is from lothric castle.
I mean the knight armor. You know, the red caped knights?

>>147469560
No.

>>147469643
Pale Shade only invades if Yuria hates you. Not sure why Alva wouldn't.

GOOD TRY THOUGH!

well I am just being meme'd again aren't I troll-kun?

>>147469850
Have you tried going a bit up the stairs that lead down to the first bonfire?

>>147469850
You can kill the pilgrim in the Church Of Yorshka, she'll be there even if you never talked to Yoel. Then Pale Shade will invade at the foot of the doggo staircase after the Silver K***ht room.

>>147469850
Alva invades before you get to the first dungeon bonfire, go do the valley and reach the dungeon bonfire from there. He will invade in the little cliff path

>Everyone has at least 40 vig
>Still die in 3-4 hits

This is bullshit. PvP is bullshit. It ends way to fast.

I'd rather have no estus, but take less damage in PVP.

>dragon sitting gesture in front of firekeeper
>she starts twirling around, dancing for you

muh fuggen heart, what a cutie

>>147469734
I didn't skip anything, all 3 skulls & the transposition guy are there

is there another boss I need to kill in untended graves or something? the only other thing I can do at this point is going back through literally every area and making sure I didn't miss a branching path, and fuck that noise

say what you will about ds2 but it's soundtrack is 100x better than ds3's generic ominous chanting for every single boss

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3CTxI_zbeU

>>147469367
bosses aggro based on who is attacking the most and dealing the most damage, prioritizing casters at range

it's you

>>147470110
ds2's soundrack is the second worst after des, there's like one at least somehow good base game composition and that's it

>>147470069
She interacts with all gestures. She will twirl for bows too iirc.

>>147470069

There's four, did you mistype or did you actually miss a Lord of Cinder?

>>147469616
What's your build? I get a gag reflex when I try to go beneath 60 int lol

DaS2's soundtrack is a fucking mess for the most part.

>le ominous chanting meme

DaS2 babs leave

>>147470230
She bows for bows (some of them at least), also twirls for toast.
