Gonna try again with the new thread.

Would anyone with a low SL build be willing to give me Gotthards Twinswords? I just started a new character and I'd like to use them for the entire playthrough. I can give whoever all the souls that I've picked up so far if you want.

You don't actually need to measure how you utilize your stats on 120 because 40/30/40/40 will always be the norm. 134 stamina to 148 makes very little difference. You'd better use that slot for chloranty, making your chances of getting negative stamina way lower.

Most character stat edits are safe offline now.
Fromsoft realized shortly after release that it was possible for people to change someone else's stats with CE, thus softbanning them, so they took most of the system down to prevent that.

Most cheating offline doesn't trigger invalid data anymore, hence why people at sl120 with 99 in every stat are so common now.

Because it scales from all 4 damage stats, giving it the highest damage output and AR potential. Obviously, this means you need to way overlevel to get to that point though.

If you want to use an Artorias sword use the one in the DLC, else you will have bags of dicks. Artorias sword is meant for over-leveled players. It is OP as fuck for 387s but crappy at meta levels.
>>
>>148062046
Because, being the poster set, it was probably one of the first completed assets in 2.
So it was made before the downgrade, back when they had a proper lighting engine in place.

Cutting that engine, and a tonne of other tech that had originally been planned fucked up the lighting on a bunch of sets, whose textures had been designed with those in mind, resulting in them looking dull and plastic.

It's also why most of the returning DaS1 armor looked notably worse than everything else, and why a couple of the obviously later assets looked better than the rest and properly metallic.

>>148061670
Pls respond
>>
>>148062420
You sound like a /v/ person.
Greatsword of Artorias is the best greatsword in the game only if you're an insanely high SL, otherwise the fourway split scaling simply does not pay off.
The Zwei works well uninfused, but if you're set on going elemental lightning is probably the safest for PvE since Chaos scales with humanity held and you're not likely to have many of those.

Did they buff the WA of the Old King's Hammer?
Before, I remember it doing pitiful damage. Like, comically low, less than a single R1.

I was just fooling around and hit the firekeeper with it and it did over 1200 to her, oneshotting her. For reference, a single 2HR1 does about 640 damage to her so this was about equal to 2 R1s.

I haven't tested in pvp yet but it seems stronger than I remember. I wonder if it was one of those things stealth-changed in the latest patch that nobody noticed because why fucking bother to use this horrible garbage?

Something cool about the great magic shield spell is that you take almost no damage when you partial parry with it.
>>
>>148063582
I'll give that a shot in a minute here and post results

Interestingly, the OK hammer has the exact same strength and faith scaling as the DS greataxe, but both less physical and less elemental base damage.

I feel like it was probably a copy/paste job, which might explain why this weapon is so trash.

Strenght weapons are still good enough to get through the game in PvE, they added hyper armour to balance the lack of poise. They're also faster than we're used to, since the animations took a lot of inspiration from Bloodborne's faster pace.
Magic as a whole is probably the least useful it's ever been; miracles are shit for damage, sorceries are less powerful than in previous iterations, and pyromancy is probably the strongest it's been but the stat requirements are also the highest.

Okay so I tested the OK hammer against the Drakeblood NPC in Archdragon Peak.
2 R1s with my setup did 498
WA hitting directly + 2 ticks of the lingering lava blob totaled to 201.

For some mysterious reason, the 2nd slam hit the firekeeper for significant damage, but when it hit the drakeblood, it simply staggered him for 0 damage, while the 3rd slam was the only one that did damage. This probably accounts for some of the damage disparity.

Verdict: OK Hammer's WA is still completely worthless. Fun fact, the perseverance on the OK Hammer does not reduce incoming damage like other greathammers, and the perseverance effect goes away immediately if you input the WA followup. The WA followup also does not have hyperarmor until the 3rd slam and the explosion has almost no range.

I don't know what they were thinking with this weapon, but it clearly hasn't been buffed with any patch.

i would look into using the greatsword of judgment because it's much more diverse in terms of greatsword movesets and abusing the broken as fuck hyperarmor on your r1 swings

>What does this mean?
Equipment gating means that developers intentionally try to keep the players ffom accessing equipment that's "too good" for the spot they're in the game. For example, giving the player the Very Large Ember accessible right at the start in Dark Souls 1 would ve poor gating because it would give the players the tools become overpowered instantly as long as they knew where the equipment was.
>>
>>148075568
You should be poking with your claymore than anything else. They claymore isn't bad but regular greatswords suffer in the current meta by having less range than halberds and less HA than UGS and the like to guarantee your hits come out.
You kind of have to play a little more cleverly than most.
>>
>>148075740
I'm a DaS1 baby myself, anon, you just have shit taste.

>>148076041
But you can access it right at the start.
>>
>>148076221
That's a real shitty example, but even then it's real hard to get early on so it kinda works as a reward for good players and you also need the Large Ember to make any use of it, which requires you beat Capra.

Well, you'll have to sequence break and kill Ingward, then you'd still have to go find the Large Ember from Depths. Most new players can't handle the ghosthouse.

>>
>>148075762
I guess. This r1 spam shit is driving me crazy though. Every fucking straight sword feels like it has more range than my claymore and hits harder and faster for no reason. I know DaS hitboxes are janky at best but I'm being hit by rapiers when I'm not even in range to swing back with a weapon twice as long, and when I do get hit just once I lose a huge chunk of health and I'm guaranteed to take at least two more because of stunlocking.

I think I'm just not even gonna fucking bother with PVP in this one. No one but the cancer builders seem to be having any fun.

Very short range and hard to connect, but they can do iron man numbers with their L1+WA combo. The WA also gets hyperarmor, but it doesn't start up immediately so you'll have to time it right. It does carry you a decent distance so it's not impossible to hit with. I really enjoy using them, though they are nowhere near meta levels of good, they're more of a high risk-high reward sort of weapon.

>>148077231
Not anymore.

basically, shortly after release people found ways to apply stat changes as weapon on-hit effects, so someone could invade you, teleport to you while invincible and invisible, smack you with a hacked dagger and change your stats. The system would recognize that your stats had been changed and give you invalid data, even though you were the victim of a hacker and not a hacker yourself

So now it doesn't detect stat editing at all, and the anti-cheat system basically does nothing.

>>148077231
Of course you don't, as long as you don't close the game on it. You're just emulating 99 on all stats, not actually levelling it up.
Also, most accounts I found doing this were just family share accounts.

That's where the search for the ideal cancer comes in.

More Soulsborne likes from From? Most definitely. Games set specifically in the Dark Souls world? No.

The world would essentially have to be reborn completely and have all lore except the most basic elements erased.

Possibly another Demon's Souls type new I.P using the same mechanics.

A pyromancer wants fast, and lightweight weapons. Here are some good ones:
Falchion/Card Captor
Thrall Axe/Hand Axe/Raw Dragonslayer Axe
Estoc/Rapier
Longsword/Lothric K***ht Sword/Broadsword/Raw ASS
Witch's Locks
And if you can afford the weight:
GSoJ
MLGS
Claymore/Raw Flamberge
And of course the grand daddy of scaling: Astora GS

Make some of them chaos for PvE, and some dark for PvP since people usually have lower dark defense

As for spells, here are most of the good ones:

Great Chaos Fire Orb(Learn how to free aim asap and you'll have a good time as a pyromancer). You can true combo this with one attack or Black Flame

Chaos Bed Vestiges. Basically forbidden sun with a disk that can cause some minor damage. Can also true combo with an attack but not sure
about Black Flame

Black Flame. Unparryable cqc pyromancy that true comboes with Combustion(the glove's WA

Black Serpent. Basically Fire Snake from DaS2 but not as powerful. But it true comboes into a hit if you're close enough

Sacred Flame. Goes through shields and allows for a setup fireball

Fire Surge. The 2FP fire damage throwing knife. Use it as much as you can to keep up the pressure

Flame Whip. Good mixup and can true combo with anything

There are some situational pyromancies that can be good too.


Warmth heals anyone in its radius for 35 hp a second. Pretty good for making a chaotic battleground

Boulder Heave is good at breaking shields but it has bad range

I don't personally agree with BB's direction since it dumbs down the gameplay imo.
Another Bloodborne might be dank, but I prefer games like Dark Souls where armor matters at least a bit.

99% of the quallow builds you encounter will be absolute shit of the lowest caliber. They're all just shit players crutching on the objectively strongest build possible in order to compensate for their own lack of competence.

Most of the actually good people playing this game only use quallow begrudgingly, because you really can't challenge a competent quallow with anything that isn't another quallow. These players also rarely use quallow outside of private tryhard FCs because there's just no reason to use it against the average pontiffshitter. If you encounter one at the pontiff's, expect them to be bad, salty and really, really want to win.

Can someone help me out here?

I talked to Nashandra I think that's her name and she told me something about meeting the king.

There's a ton of greyed out areas on my bonfire menu now, and I'm guessing those are just the zones and bonfires I've passed over. I'm extremely lost and I can't figure out how to get to those areas after wandering through all the places I've explored already since all the doors in the castle are locked and I can't progress any further in that direction.

I remember hearing something about a crypt somewhere, but I've only been able to find some stupid rat covenant.

>>
>>148085869
If I'm not mistaken grey just means that you're outside the range in which you're likely to get online activity for that particular zone
If you go to the room where you talk to Nashandra, there's an exit on the right side of that room that leads to the Twin Dragonriders fight, and from there you keep going straight through a few zones

The greyed out areas are indeed bonfires you have not lit yet.

There's a tonne of hidden bonfires all throughout the game. Some are convenient checkpoints to shorten boss runbacks (though never necessary), others mark the entrance to hidden optional areas and other secrets.

The locked door past the 2 dragon riders has a key within the same area. Look for a ladder in that room and remember the puzzle that unlocked the main castle gate.

Why the fuck are none of the DS3 NPCs that funny? We don't even have a Yurt anymore, most of the risk of dead NPCs comes from the player unintentionally murdering them or completing their fucking questlines.

Tricking a player into killing an NPC for a shitty weapon he would've gotten with patience is way better then accidentally letting some blind bitch read naughty bumps or letting thief bro follow his dream.

Why are e-celebs and their opinions so fucking shit? I've heard them complaining about duels and invasions.

Then Oroboro was complaining about the invading penalties making it "unfair" for invaders, but I guess that opinion is not exclusive to shitty e-celebs because I've heard that one before from literally everyone who takes this game a little too seriously.

>>148087669
I've put over 200 hours in 3, I don't mindlessly hate it or 2 since they are well worth the money for time invested, but it's natural to want the games to be better over time.

For instance, I like how invasions are structured so I know whenever I invade, it's someone who isn't a faggot not okay with it, but I can see how some people might have grips since there's no similar mechanic in any other series and they want to consider it good.
I'm rather bothered there's no arena, killing an amazing invasion spot or how mound-makers feel kind of half assed despite being the best covenant, but I got no huge complaints towards multiplayer there aren't to blame on the players instead of From. The things that bother me are only certain options like rolls being too strong making PvE and PvP alike suffer.

Turtle is probably not the right word since this community seems to think turtling means hiding behind a havel's shield

You can play obnoxiously passively with ultras, since their only real strength is punishing blatant errors with big damage. Play like a passive shit for long enough and you can eventually just wait your opponent into trying riskier things to open you up, which in turn opens them up to getting punished.

Aggression into ultras can be dangerous because hyperarmor can be unpredictable and single mistakes cost you ~800 health. Guess incorrectly and you eat a nuclear shit, which means it's in the ultra-users best interest to strap down and play passively until it turns into a guessing game.

Some of the biggest weaknesses of ultras is that it's very easy to react to and punish them, and also exceptionally easy to out-space their slow attacks. You can't punish an attack if they don't attack

>>148089551
Greatsword is in a very awkward spot.
It loses a larger % of base damage with infusion than any other ultra for no real reason.
It's scaling is such that it loses too much dex scaling with heavy so it's only an increase of a couple points, and it gains too little dex scaling with refined so it's still barely an increase

I'm honestly not sure what they were thinking with that thing. The saddest part is that a 60str heavy Greatsword has less AR than a 40/40 refined claymore.

In fact, outside of the profaned GS and BKGS (both of which are quality weapons) most UGS don't actually beat the best greatswords by more than a few points of AR. Greathammers are in a similarly bad boat in that their AR is greatsword-tier on 90% of the weapons in their class. Only greataxes consistently beat greatswords by any meaningful margin.

36 poise is the breakpoint for earlyHA on the Greatsword UGS. I am unsure of what it is on other weapons.

No.
The WA damage scales with the weapon's total AR, and faith is the absolute worst way to increase its total AR. The buff is also a flat amount of lightning damage added on to the weapon, and is not affected by scaling at all.

always be sure of your spacing, if you're not hitting with pretty much the tip of your weapon then you're just asking for trades

most weapons will beat you out up close since curved greatswords have shit hyper armor and are fairly slow to startup. but your weapon art has some hyper armor and is great for catching rolls after an R1+R1

with the Carthus Curved Greatsword in particular be sure not to do the full weapon art into R2 unless you're damn sure it's going to hit and your spacing is good

also be prepared for parries because they are Parry Bait: the weapon class

>>
>>148091320
It doesn't really matter, since you mostly have the same degree of manual control either way

Some important things to note: don't trade with glaives or greatswords, as most of them will outdamage you even if you HA them. HA trades often trigger a special state that prevents you from comboing a second hit even if you stagger them, your animation is slightly different when this happens so pay close attention and try to avoid wasting stamina on that 2nd swing when you know it won't connect.

Also, never use the full WA. The first hit is unparryable, which can be useful against fishers but the followup has extremely bad tracking and will consistently fail to connect even if the first hit lands perfectly. It's a free backstab every time it fails.
