so I think I've finally reached Pinwheel's boss door, because of the large amount of "weakness: anywhere" messages.

Is this boss really as easy as everyone says it is? I'm kind of worried that I will die and destroy my fragile ego. What should I expect?

>>148387287
What's the worst enemy in each of the games and why?

>Demon's Souls
Rats. They're tiny, hard to hit and cause plague.

>Dark Souls 1
Izalith statues. They're not fun, they're not challenging, they're just annoying.

>Dark Souls 2
Those big mushrooms that let out weapon damage gas. They're not coupled even with any enemies that would make fighting them a challenge, it's literally just "dude, break your equipment,lmao!". To top it off, there's a bonfire right next to them to make them even more pointless.

>>148388561
Expect a boss balanced to be challenged with +0 weapons that lets you hit him.

>>148388561
That one boss in every game that makes clones of himself.

He shoots projectiles that can fuck you up if you're dumb.

Really though theres no excuse for dying unless youre level 1

I literally thought there was another boss after the Soul of Cinder. I was so surprised when the game just ended. lmao

>>148388440
>not knowing greater than and less than signs

>>148388561
If you have any kind of burst or fire warding, he's cake. Probably the only case where the area is legitimately harder than the boss.

>>148388561
The boss is designed around a gimmick it'll never get to properly use because it's heathpool is so small and it's arena so tiny.

>>148388813
>greater than less than signs

>>148389742
>being low on HP
>surely this is the time to launch risky attacks
Yer not thinking here

>>148389724
The problem wasn't that it specifically was 142, but rather that it was a number greater than 120.
Stating that 142 is greater than 120 is stating the obvious. Stating that his build isn't at the meta level and therefore needs tweaking is.

I beat DaS without a single summon.
But I completely lost it on this game.
I started summoning for every boss around Pontiff Sullivan.
I'm sorry /dsg/

>>148389536
In a game where a 25.5 weight ULTRA GREAT sword with a 50 strength requirement does no more than 400 damage in an R1, 50 is a pretty substantial number.
Lets say a cardcaptor does 300 damage on average per R1. If you have 1800hp, that's 6 hits to kill you.
Add 50 flat damage reduction from vitgouging and you go to 250 a hit, which means it now takes 8 hits to kill you. That's a 30% increase in your survivability.

>>148389803
It was always in the game

>>148389960
You're also forgetting that 50 damage reduction is AT 99 FUCKING VIT. Meaning no damage output from you.

A SL 120 30 VIT 40/40/32/32 has 154 Defense, A WHOOPING SEVEN POINTS.

Did they do something to the drop rates in that last patch?

>>148390471
You could probably spare to be something like
50vigor/40vit/20ed/27str/40dex at 120 just fine. That'll use some weapons optimally and will probably net you more defense than luquality gains in damage over you.

>>148390683
i got 2 refine gems

>>148390791
Congrats now you are up to 156 Defense gaining 9 defense overall, but you lost over 30 AR on typical quality weapons. Oh and lost most of your stamina too.

What's the best counter to invaders with rouged dual claws trying to stunlock me to death?

>>148391094
If you can't beat claws then you need to git fucking gud.

>>148389895
not like i expect them to try and chain a combo on me, but they literally stand around and roll spam away, waiting for a mistake

>>148391061
>most of your stamina
Nigga, you gain like 20 points of stamina between 20 and 40. It's fucking nothing.
40 vit also nets you an extra 10-15 ABS on average over players with base vit, which is significant.

Also, if you're looking at the mudgenmonkey creator, it isn't accurate for flat defense. It doesn't actually give you the full value per level of vit that you get ingame, so your actual flat defense will be much higher than the character creator predicts.

Series virgin here, currently playing DaS2.

I'm really paranoid about upgrading. Just beat the Lost Sinner with +4 starting weapons, is it better to keep upgrading them or should I save my shards for something later on?

Also I've heard upgrading armor isn't worth it.

>>148391662
The worst part about DaS3 poison is the fact that it does nothing, so you're just sitting on 8 estus and SSSSSISSSSSSSSISSSSSSISSSSSSS the whole way through the fucking swamp.

If the Hp loss was significant, like DaS2-levels, then I'd at least have something to distract me from the obnoxious sound effect, and something to use all this fucking estus on. The worst part of earlygame DaS3 is having so much effective healing that you can facetank shit and never worry about it.

>>148391845
Why would you start off with the worst game?

Where's the best place to get summoned in DS2

>>148391889
I feel like they expected players to allot more flasks to Gatorade.

>>148391845
if you have a weapon that you feel comfortable killing things with then upgrade it as much as you can

you'll get plenty more upgrade materials later on

armor upgrades aren't a priority but as you progress you can pop a few spare shards into pieces you use

>>148391949
ignore this shitposter

>>148391845
Upgrading armor is indeed not worth it unless you just have spare shards to burn.
You can buy large shards in infinite supply once you get the Bastille Key (or do it the other way, whichever works for you), so don't be afraid to dump upgrade materials as you please.

Chunks will be scarce for a while, but you can eventually buy them infinitely, too.

The only thing you have to be judicious with are petrified dragon bones and twinkling titanite, as you only get enough guaranteed drops for 3 or 4 weapons per playthrough and need to farm the rest.

>>148391425
>10-15 ABS on average over players with base vit, which is significant.
This is wrong. Difference between Fallen Knight and Smough (can't even fast roll without sacrificing ring slots even at 40 vit) is a 8-9% AT BEST. No matter how you look at heavy armor is garbage and vit is a garbage stat. Also difference between 20 and 40 stamina is 48, nearly a 50% net gain.

>>148391845
Shards don't matter, the only thing worth being stingy with is Chunks, so you can just upgrade whatever and as long as you're doing reasonable damage you're fine to keep going until you find something you like
You could upgrade armor if you're immensely satisfied with your weapon and have 99 titanite shards you don't care about getting rid of for +2% damage absorption

>>148392098
You can't even wear fallen knights as a warrior and still equip a washing pole.

Not sure of the general consensus, but as far as I've used it:
Damage is a bit subpar, but nothing awful.
Counter damage is hilariously high, makes up for the damage, most of the time.
Reach is great, Washing Pole tier stuff.
Moveset is interesting, though seems pretty easy to dodge.

Well, the answer every time I asked something back when the first game came out was to "git gud". And that inevitably drove me mildly insane. Because every time I criticized something people just said I needed to git gud. And so casual gameplay turned into frantic obsession turned into lunacy. Combined with depression and a tendency for self-abuse whenever I'm stressed, it's turned into a perfect storm where I see any failing in Dark Souls as needing to be dealt with brutally.

It isn't really autism. It's a truer form of madness.

>>148389742
Tbh palying passively is the only way to play if you want to win. Pressure means basically jack all since you chan chug without consequence, spam roll for infinite iframes and basically outspace and outlast any opponent because for some reason kiting is more effective than chasing.

I liked 2's better, but I don't dislike 3's approach. The ways in which it directly connects back to 1 kind of paint an interesting picture in their own right, trying to fit the worlds of the 3 all together is interesting to think about.

You lose the luck bonus from each of your weapons if you're not hollowed you dip.

Hey guys is it alright if I bring my build to the FC?
He's level 212

>>148391662

Step 1: Buy a dagger
Step 2: L2

Are Sharp Gems and Heavy Gems worth using? I'm at Old Demon King right now and I feel like I do no damage.

>>148398625
He used to be worse, and I don't mean from a skill perspective.

>>148398652

Do you know how weapon scaling and infusion works? If not, look it up.

If you're trying not to spoil yourself then you're in the wrong place.

>>148398652
Only very circumstantially.
Only weapon I can think of off the top of my head that is better Heavy than Refined is the Pickaxe.

As a pyro will I get more out of my weapons if I make them dark instead of chaos because not many people have dark resistance?

Luck improves bleed, right? How much luck is generally considered satisfactory for a bleed build? I'm finding that I can't reach 40 on anything by 120, and I started as a Mercenary. I'm not sure if that affects anything.

>>148398845

In PvP? Yes. In PvE? No.

>>148398652
Depends on your build and the weapon. If you're high str then heavy infusion will probably give you more damage. Hell, even at base requirements for a bunch of weapons, Refined offers the most damage output because it's so "balanced."

I understand how it works, I just want to know what the best way to build is.

>>148398875

Luck improves bleed/poison by literally a few points.

You get 5 luck for each hollow weapon wielded (so, max 10) past 15 hollowing. So you only need 30 if you want to hit the softcap.

It should be easy at 120SL. Where are the rest of your points going?

>>148398875
You only need 30/35. You gain 5 luck with a hollow infused weapon, and hollow has slightly better scaling than quality.

>>148399095

>>148399134
didn't mean too quote

>>148399095

Sorry, it sounded like you weren't sure since you didn't mention what weapon you were using. It really depends on the weapon, if a heavy/sharp gem will do more damage. I don't think there's a single weapon that sharp will do more damage than refined if you have the points to spare.

Post your inventory screen and people can diagnose your damage problem.

>>148398965
Not them, but it isn't hacking. FromSoft's netcode is so good, that if someone is sufficiently laggy they just spawn invisible.
