So how in the fuck does the Scholar update/dlc work for ps3 ds2? If I purchase all the dlc do I get the forlorn and new enemy placements? If I purchase the SotFS version from store do I get the above mentioned stuff? Do I have to switch to ps4/pc to get them? On ps3 do I get everything else though?
>>
>>148454359
PS3 does not get the scholar re-release.
If you buy the DLC for PS3, you just get the DLC
Note that you do get the agape ring and Aldia stuff on the PS3 version, even without buying the DLC.

Scholar is PS4/XB1 and PC exclusive, it includes all of the dlcs packaged with it, changed enemy placements, increased phantom limit and a minor graphical upgrade.

the ps3 store's got a "scholar of the first sin" in there though

Favorite DS2 Covenant?
I want to join something, but somehow, unlike in DS1, I can't seem to care about Covenants and they supposedly stand for.
>>
>>148455052
rat covenant can be pretty fun, if someone actually ever goes down to the silly cave.
>>
>>148455713
I figured that a Covenant that is "protecting" an area would have something in it to lure players in.
I mean Belfy Sol had the Mad Warrior, to lure in poor bastards wearing just the Symbol of Avrice, and Prisoner's tatters, so the Belkeepers can slaughter them.
>>
>>148455052
Rats were the fucking best back on release when they were actually alive
Same with the Pilgrims. Abyss pvp is basically the private VIP invader lounge

Anymore, about the only covenant still active are the bellends, but chunkin' in bellville is still great fun.

Melanoma-tier: un-fun to fight, un-fun to use. Literally 0 appeal to these weapons outside of simply being the absolute, objectively best pvp tools in the game. Immediately identify you as a tryhard tourneyfag delusional enough to believe that dark souls is a comeptitive professional fighting game, and also a browser of reddit and fan of e-celebs

Washing Pole
Carthus Curved Sword
Lucerne (+leo ring)
Black Knight Glaive
Gundyr's Halberd
Glaive
Gargoyle Flame Spear
Gotthard's Twinswords
Estoc
Hornet Ring

Prostate Cancer-tier: the hipster options for tryhards that want to pretend they aren't a mindless redditdrone gargling e-celeb cock, or the gimmicky garbage that involves broken, abusable shit that's only slightly less good than the above.

2kat
Claws
Chaos Blade
Dragonslayer Swordspear

Red-Hilted Halberd
Demon's Fist
Storm Curved Sword
Carthus Shotel
Falchion
Lothric Knight Sword
Dark Sword
Irithyll Rapier
Corvian Greatknife
Hollowslayer Spear (+leo)

Operable-tier: Not particularly meta, but obnoxious for one reason or another. Usually excessively passive, mildly inconvenient or a super-specific hardcounter that is fairly easy to deal with but still just a pain in the ass. The core tools of someone who would rather just be annoying instead of actually fighting.

That armor is cool but it pisses me off because only one pair of paints completely hides the hole on the belly and no gloves cover up the gap between them and the armor.

Also try Creightons helm, fallen knight looks bad.

>>148455052
Dragon, by far.
You could get summoned for a 1 on 1 where you knew the host couldn't have any help and also where you knew if he started being a bitch and chugging then you could as well. The second point is rendered uselss in DaS3 anyway but personally if they were to bring it back I'd like to see it actually made so that it blocked both people from using estus.

Damage is very low and it has trouble against certain enemies due to the terrible stamina costs.

However, you can dodge tonnes of enemy attacks using the L1, since it swerves and lowers your hitbox. You can low-profile under most horizontal slashes and lunge past vertical or diagonal stuff. It completely dumps on Champion Gundyr and the Twin Princes as a result.

He doesn't CE any of them.

He streams his games and virtually every single one of those playthroughs is on NG+75 or higher.

Getting B544 aka max level in BB is actually astonishingly easy compared to DaS1, or DES by his own account.

There's certain chalice dungeons that he does that net 5-6m blood echoes per run and IIRC it was the fastest he ever maxed a character.

That's off the top of my head, the shitty NG+ and no invasions after boss have really killed the game. Or at least make it feel dead.

Why do people go on about DaS2s NG+? It sprinkled some new stuff around and swapped some things, but that's it. Not enough to convince someone ot play NG+ if they weren't already.
Plus powerstancing is only slightly better than what we have at the moment. The preferred method should be mixing movesets of two different weapons, rather than creating new ones.

It wasn't much but it was something. I'd like to see something like Demon's Souls PBWT as a New Game Plus, shit was legit terrifying.

Imagine the Cathedral gauntlet if they added a Black Phantom Warden in the end or put Black Phantom Carthus Curved Sword guys in the Catacombs. Or a BP chainaxe snek.

Oh yeah, and DS2 literally adds two enemy types that weren't even there in New Game.

You can't parry that shit if someone competent is wielding it

Some guy I fought at Pontiff fucking destroyed my asshole open. He was doing some weird ass fucking tech shit and backstepped behind me immediately after he phantomranged me into the L1 combo and backstabbed me

I tried parrying it four times, and almost always get it when scrubs use it, but he kept deadangling and I ended up with partials each time and then got caught in the combo again.

I'm pretty sure the farron greatsword is the highest skillcap weapon in the game and that guy was the best player i've ever fought using it

Because it was the best the series has ever offered? I mean, regardless of how you or I feel about DS2 gameplay on a conceptual level trying to compare what they added to a collection of shit 2+ rings isn't a fucking contest.

May as well just say that you want to remove NG+ if additional enemies, new enemy placements (including in boss fights to make them harder), exclusive items and fashion armors, etc. isn't enough to convince you.

There would be no fucking negative to adding these thing to DS3 other than boosting the shit out of the replay value. No death/no bonfire rewards would be great too.

And yeah, powerstancing was eh but at least it added some variety instead of using fucking everything in your left hand as a "guard".

I mean I suppose it's no negative, and it isn't difficult to do. But it's not a massive plus.

He rebuilt it after the DS2 team fucked up early in development. He WAS lead designer for it.

However, due to the way broken development cycles work (a lot of time is wasted before the deadline) he basically had to salvage a mess.

Where he fucked up was putting too many of his leftover ideas from Bloodborne into DS3. The two games are very similar in design and mechanics, but very different when it comes to the details. The DS3 "poise" system is exactly the same as Bloodborne.

DS1 was a masterpiece. DS2 got pretty linear but Majula was a decent branching hub so at least the beginning of runs could go separate ways.

>>148486772
Personally I wouldn't bother with gnaw but that's just me. The only other related miracles I can think of are Bountiful Sunlight from Rosaria and Lifehunt Scythe from Aldritch.

Personally I just use force as a third spell. All my stats are dumped into vit for the fucking fashion armor/greatshield. God I wish poise was a thing.

>>148486772

You could actually do fine making a cleric-type Deacon who uses both miracles and sorceries by basically doing a pyromancy build but using the crystal chime (or caitha's and izalith for max damage) and a dark weapon. I picked the morning star for menacing looks and low reqs.

https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/56397

I disagree. Or at least, it depends on the area. Road of Sacrifices could've done with one less bonfire like the one in Crucifixion Woods is pointless and the bonfire before the Cleansing Chapel is too, but I believe that otherwise Cathedral of the Deep got the amount of bonfires right, as did Grand Archives, ArchDragon Peak and Irithyll.

Catacombs didn't imo need a bonfire before Wolnir and Irithyll dungeon was pretty good without one too.
>>
>>148487036
Much.

Looks like it suits your playstyle well enough. Only other thing I can suggest is bringing your VIG and END down so you can then rearrange those leftover stats into FAI so you can hit that softcap.

60 FAI is approximately 10-20% more effective than 50 faith, and 50% more effective than 40 Fai, depending on individual miracles and catalysts.

25 END and 35 VIG is plenty for a Faifag. Consider SL125 as well.
>>
>>148487771

The only bonfires I feel aren't needed are most of the boss ones save for the ones at the end of a path like Yhorm. The Grand Archies archives bonfire being right after Dragonslayer Armor's bonfire is the epitome of what a joke most of them are.

The phrase you're looking for is "Lag Compensation".

Light weapons in general could use a global nerf. No "one handed" weapon should ever have more than ~415 AR at 40/40. But straights seriously need to eat more stamina and have lower R1 efficiency.

Ganking could easily be fixed by limiting Estus and phantom summoning for the host.

Too much renewable estus is the problem. Once again solvable by targeting the amount of healing, not its efficiency.

Being able to hit Farron Swamp straight from Undead Settlement can fix this. As well as connecting the Cathedral to Smouldering Lake. Neither of these things are hard to do, especially if the DLC serves as the connections for these areas.

Melee has dominated every single Souls game since Demon's Souls. It's a well known fact that magic in RPGs is often the least popular method of combat, even when Magic is generally considered more effective. This can also be solved by superior magic equipment or spells in the DLC.

You complain too much anon, the game has problems but it's still extremely fun if you stop being a pessimist.. Try co-oping.

No, I mean intentional phantom range. All weapons have a hitbox that extends significantly past their model, this is especially noticeable on straight swords.

>Once again solvable by targeting the amount of healing, not its efficiency.
Hell no. Healing needs to be worse than it is. It trivializes PvE and PvP to be able to sip so much of your health back so fast that you can backroll, sip, and immediately dodge any attack that comes in to hurt you.
It needs to be worse so that fighting is more about not getting hit rather than just how much estus you have.

Healing has always been completely overpowered in every souls game.

The only exception is Bloodborne in PvP, otherwise you can just use the hunter's axe or saw cleaver and just hit the target 5 times to heal your full HP back.

Meme Grass inna DeS.
Humanity is literally a "full health for free" in DaS1,
Lifegems in DaS2.

Shit, DaS3 is the only souls game in the entire franchise that doesn't have some sort of bullshit healing method EXCEPT for estus.

It is objectively punishable, no matter how difficult, and still risky to do so in the middle of combat. The point is all healing in every souls game is extremely powerful.

How come even though the game is nice and I liked it for the 3 runs I did, I still have no desire to replay it at all? Like the mere thought of havving to slog through Undead Settlement, Farron Keep, Carthus Catacombs, Irythill and all these areas is so offputting. Not only that, but I also feel like no area or boss in the game is interesting enough that I'd look forward to it. Atleast in DaS2 you had shit like Drangleic Castle, Heide, the Crypt with the King's Memory and the great dialogue with Vendrick. I'd fight Looking Glass Knight, Velstadt, Vendrick and Nashandra over Sulyvahn, NLK and SoC any day. I also like how DaS2 introduced some new and interesting lore and characters with Aldia and Vendrick, whereas DaS3 does nothing in that regard. It's just the same "collect these 4 souls that are definitely not lord souls and fight the final boss". And while the Soul of Cinder is a cool bossfight, it's just so random and has no buildup whatsoever leading up to it. Why do you have to fight him? Does every single person who linked the fire have to fight him?

I'm really hoping the DLC will be great. Hopefully we'll get some closure and no more of this vague, ominous shit.

I did accidentally find my way down to Gwyndolin and got the sunlight weapon upgrade so should I make a +15 falchion or a +15 Iaito?

It healed a laughable amount of HP compared to the damage output of any 27.2% gemmed weapon on top of being parryable. A post-transform r1-r1 of LHB could easily eat more than 1200 HP, even with constant healing typical BB pvp match never took a large amount of time if both participants were rocking top tier gem.

The Soul of Cinder is basically something that you have to defeat and absorb it's power so you can take it's place. It's the final test of your power but the SoC is also guarding it's flame from the possibility that you're going to extinguish it and plunge the World into Dark.

Luck doesn't just affect bleed, it affects poison build up too. The point of this build is to apply poison and then just evade and let the poison kill them. Troll fight clubs with this, they'll either black crystal out or jump off somewhere to end it faster. if they get desperate to try to end you just parry them, but don't riposte.

Milk and Bloodring don't affect quicksteps so the dagger seems kind of pointless. The Ghru spear is much better at applying poison to players.

To explain the Soul of Cinder it's like if Trump upon entering the presidential race would have to score off against the other candidates and then face an amalgamation of all old U.S presidents starting from George Washington and upon victory, granted 2 buttons one of which makes America great again for the rest of his two terms but doing so he'd be constantly burning all of his personal wealth to do so and one that makes everything irredeemably shit.
>>
>>148491530

blood ring is there for regular rolls, simple infusion isn't what it used to be. I find it easier to apply poison with the dagger rather than attacking with the spear. This is more about applying poison and being a nuisance than winning.

>>148490717

Maybe. I'll probably try a new character for the DLC though just to see how it is without everything having bricktons of HP.

Speaking of HP and NG, fighting 2bros on NG+++++ was weird. Lorian had a lot of HP in the first phase, and then in the second phase Lothric had insane HP... while Lorian had so little I could down him with three direct Vestiges. Phase two ended up being easier than phase one because I'd knock Lothric off so fast and often that Lorian could barely get more than a handful of combos off in total before it was over.

To put it to perspective, Dark Souls 3 didn't have any shit areas barring Propaned Capital, but none of them are as memorable as the high points of DS1.

Literally no area compares to Sen's Fortress / Blighttown / Tomb of the Giants. On the other hand, the amount of bland shitfests was in the minimum too, so credit to the devs for that. I think the level design is much more reminiscent of Demon's Souls than Dark Souls brcause everything is solid, but nothing really stands out as particularly great or memorable either.

I cobbled together a build with a heavy-infused Dragonslayer's Axe that'll exceed 500 damage per hit with lightning blade while still leaving room for plenty of other miracles.

I have no clue if it's viable for PvP, but it shows what's possible at SL100. If you're looking to do meta PvP, just go 120 and save yourself the crunch.

Amana was a beautiful area but it would've been more appropriate if the area had lead to Shulva and the whole area is a really odd break between Drangleic castle and Undead Crypt. It juts out without much explanation between the levels without having to do design-wise much with either.

I sometimes have to spam warmth and roll through it for half an area before people get it.

Sometimes hosts get it and BCs people who attack me out.
Sometimes phantoms get it and stand in front of me and block towards the host, or get their own torch out.
Sometimes they go into a blood frenzy and die to enemies while chasing me.
Most of the time they EVENTUALLY all get it.

After you reach 50vig, you gain more effective health per point in vit than per point in vig, all the way until 99vit since it has no softcaps. In other words, it's the only way to effectively increase your survivability.

That guy there also has 204 flat physical damage reduction, which is like ~50 more than the average 120. That's a pretty substantial increase in effective health without even considering the extra ABS gained from heavy armor.

Sounds like you've had some pretty cool experiences though. The last time I had something that fun was invading at Sen's Fortress when the PC version came out cosplaying as the Iron Golem. Was fun to help out all of those gargoyle helmet wearing cuteboys.

And sometimes leading them up to the boss door to backstab them.

It started out at SL20 so I could barely meet the weapon requirements using the hunter's ring and knight's ring. I'm SL35 now but I wouldn't be able to mid-roll even putting all those 15 points into vit with the full set on minus the weapon I don't think. I'll just learn to deal with it. Might be easier if I bump my SL to 50 for Anal Rodeo and go headcanon Gundyr with Dragonslayer bow.

What's goin' on, guys? This is MartyrsBrigade99 coming to you once again with another session of /dsg/.

Alright guys, we're back at it with a little series I like to call "The General Thread". First off, lets give a show of appreciation to our good ole /dsg/. Now a lot of times -- or should I say most of the time. Actually I cant even say that, the vast majority of times -- the primary form of posting in these threads are pictures. And that’s alright; thats cool and everything, but to turn around and uh... you know, disrespect others for not posting pictures... Well I only have one thing to say to hotshots like you: Get off it.

If you think that pictures are more important than all the writing styles, all the information, and uh... all the community contributions, well then I suggest you re-evaluate your posting style.

Now before any of you jokers from the reporting brigade jump on me, I am not dissing the usefulness of pictures. But until you can demonstrate for YOURSELVES, that you can have a successful and positive thread using ONLY images, then you cannot refute my beliefs. Besides, here in the brigade we like to do things a little differently.

Now it's funny, because every single high speed pasta reporter and every hotshot image poster who has come in here with their ridiculous accusations, not a single one has been able to demonstrate that images can be used as the primary form of communication. And that's that.

Until next time...

MartyrsBrigade...

I've been running into more 1v1s and 1v2s lately, as well as 2v3s. Most of the pvebabbies have given up to go play the new hot game of the month, making it much easier to invade lone players. It feels like the skill level of the pvebabbies has also gone even further down, making 3v1s not nearly as bullshit as it was a few months ago. I also can't remember the last time I've had somebody use a seed on me, and I've been invading almost exclusively for the past 10 days.

Ultra Gutsword should have the Warcry WA desu. Literally fits the source material perfectly.
>>
Maybe it gets better when I hit 120, but right now lightning greatlance hits like wet paper. The moveset doesn't help either. Everything besides your R1 is some variation of run forward with the pointy end out. It's only redeeming moves are its rolling R1s, but it has nothing to follow up with except roll out of the way. None of its moves appear to have an hyper armor besides everything having very long start up.
Also, I think greatlance is the only weapon who's hitbox is actually constrained to its model. I feel like everything I fought had ridiculous phantom range.

In short, its too heavy and too slow to be this weak. It has great lightning scaling, but the only way to capitalize on it is with the lightning clutch ring which hurts your ability to trade. The payoffs are few and far between but the few times it does its pretty satisfying.

I have researched what everyone already knew. From pls buff.

>>148506048
The WA is shit. I made a long series of posts about it the other day, but basically it's never worth it. While Stomp itself has HA, the spin does not, meaning you can still get hit out of it early in the animation. The damage is garbage compared to the ludicrous amount of stamina it costs (like 70% at 175 stam), short range and a very long after cast. Just never use it.
>>148506143
Mine's Heavy with 50Str and it's my choice weapon for duels and pvp in general. It has ~500AR, although people will tell you that's too low for an UGS (especially with its weight), I've never been disappointed by its damage output. The real strength is its 2handed moveset; R1 combos into R2, and R2 itself is a poke (with thrust damage, compared to the FUGS which only has Strike) with damn good range on both attacks. It's excellent for trading with Halberds and Spears because of this.

ABS is a 1-1 % reduction to incoming damage.
40% ABS reduces incoming damage of that type by 40%.

IIRC, stomp gives you like 30 or 40% bonus damage reduction during its hyperarmor. I don't remember the exact value, just that it's identical to the SS and GS stance R2 and less than perseverance.

The problem with stomp is just that it's fucking useless. It's just a shitty version of perseverance that telegraphs the slow, easily avoided, roll-BSable followup.

Ryye here. Fight me on on top at High Wall and I'll let your estus versus me, for a longer duel so you get room to make mistakes.
>>
>>148507329
Lorian's is actually really good, one of the best UGS.
It has low requirements, high base damage and low scaling, so it's like the ideal low-investment UGS. You only need to stomp to get the buff, too, so it's basically a fire warcry.

You're allowed if that's what you're asking.

Ashen Knight Boyd can solo Freja
Torches scare away the mini spiders and make them non-aggressive
The Mini spiders in the boss room don't start respawning for several minutes, so if you can wipe them at the start you can mostly kill the boss before they start coming back
The respawned spiders don't immediately aggro you and instead huddle up to Freja's body. If you don't attack them or run right into them (which is easy because they don't go near the heads) you can avoid aggroing them entirely.
Use thrust attacks to have the easiest time hitting the heads.
If you stay at a distance and strafe to the side, you can bait the laser attack which leaves the other head open for a long time.

Watch this, and listen to his advice. The weapon isn't the same, but it's a very similar moveset and everything there applies to most greatswords.

to get into old iron king dlc, go to that one locked door outside The Last Giant (generally first boss you fight) boss room and search that whole area for the key.

They feel less "exhausting" as you get a better handle of the game's basic control and mechanics, but simply running past and skipping enemies you don't like is always an option. Most of the time, strong enemies won't pull beyond the room they're placed in, making them fairly easy to skip.

this. It's a tedious, boring area and honestly just not fun or interesting at all.

>Nobody implied that it was a hard area
Glad we're all on the same page then.

If you spend long enough in the swamp to get bored you're bad at spatial awareness, navigation and probably missed a few developmental milestones.

Alright I've gotten into the Sunken King and Iron King DLCs but I'm getting my shit pushed in. Is this normal? Everything 3 hits me which is fine but there's so many enemies
I don't really want to kill the final boss and then not be able to come back to the DLC afterwards because NG+ starts (that's what I did in DaS) but I don't really know what else to do

Yeah, I told you anon.

The DaS2 DLCS were literally created with SL387s in mind; they're the most diffficult souls content ever created thus far.

Not even Orphan of Kos has a failure rate as high as Fume Knight.

He will literally push your shit in so far you'll be sitting on the toilet head first.

>>148518424
Post stats.

In the first area of the sunken king DLC you can hit objects with glowing runes to activate platforms that make sure you don't get sniped while fighting the enemies.
>>
>>148518424
What SL are you?
And FYI in DS2 you no longer have to go to NG+ immediatly, you get dumped at the majula bonfire instead
>>
>>148517779
what is so great about that?
>>
>>148518630
It's not only the longest weapon in the game, it's also the most stamina efficient weapon in the game.

I can stab with it 14 times before I run out of green bar.

Use your mainhand weapon normally, but if you start getting pressured, just back up and use the longest weapon in the game to fight off your attack

Ah yeah, SL100 explains it. Good to know about being able to go back though, that fucked me in Artorias' DLC
>>
>>148518773
Even then, it's still brutally hard content.

I SERIOUSLY suggest getting a co-op buddy to do it with.

I think everyone's almost done with the FC now, I'll close it down in 30m unless I get a (You) from every person in the FC.

>tfw been using broadsword all of ds2 so far
What should I do to mix it up? I'm most used to straight swords but I can level a bit of dex to use a washing pole or something too

>katanas

>dark souls 2

wew lad that's a waste of time. I recommend a spear, Rapier, or Estoc, and then a heavy weapon of your choice.

Ideally you should have 3 weapons you can readily swap to at any time.

God damn it. Would it kill Fromsoft to make at least a somewhat well-proportioned Greataxe? I'm all for hueg weapons but GAs as a whole have no variety in their construction. It really needs to stop.
