Phantom ideas?

A covenant that summons you as invader to worlds with the objective to kill any one person and being sent home immediately after.

A covenant that summons you as invader to kill one specific person who is not the host, chosen randomly.

Not exactly a new idea, but there need to be more bosses that summon other players, so far the only two in the whole series are Old Monk and Looking Glass Knight.

>>
>>150284551
if you're using a straight sword, you can two-hand it, buff it with something and hit the dog's head when it roars after spawning and it should stagger it. i managed to do it with Raw Broadsword+2 buffed with Carthus Flame Arc with unupgraded Pyromancy flame. charged R2 to the head using any Great Hammer should work as well, charged R2s with other weapons are probably effective too if they can reach the head. i think it's very weak to Bleed, but staggering it right after spawning is probably the safest way to kill it
>>
>>150284551
Observe his movements more, he does telegraph his shit. For example, if you are around his sides or back, he will turn his head towards you, growl, then do a quick 360 attack which you can dodge by rolling into him when you hear the growl. He tends to do it twice in a row, then leaves a small window for getting a hit or two in immediately afterwards.

If you are really struggling and don't mind cheese, you can run back through the gateway behind him and he'll stop attacking and disappear. He pops up again when you go back down the bridge and doesn't heal the damage dealt previously.

Ah sorry, I should have specified: I already did skip him on the bridge, and it's at the lake where he's destroying me.
I know he's optional, but that doesn't matter. Optional just means it's got more souls than usual and probably has a neat item. I need it. I am greed.

Playing DaS1, I wanna do a build with big-ass shield and melee weapons with some range, so I can just have enemies whiff against my shield and then hit them without running right up to their ass
What's the best build for that? The melee weapons with most range (spears and halberds) seem to scale with dex
Should I just use a giant weapon instead so I can pump all my points into str and end?

There is one good drop from crocodogs later, but it involves two of them.

>but it involves two of them.
I was just about to post something regarding this because I decided to look him up on the wiki.
Fucking.
Two crocodudes.
Why.

DS3 is by far the souls game I've struggled the most with so far, and it's mostly just because of how incredibly aggressive enemies are.
And probably also because of the infinite stamina that enemies have.

I sexually Identify as a Bonewheel Skeleton. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of rolling over dirty adventurers in the bottom of the Catacombs. People say to me that a person being a Bonewheel Skeleton is Impossible and I’m fucking retarded but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install large wooden wheels and spikes on my body and hollowing myself to the point of insanity. From now on I want you guys to call me “Wheely” and respect my right to roll over you and roll needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a wheelphobe and need to check your skeleton privilege. Thank you for being so understanding.

this so much
Pontiff k***hts that swing 24 times in a row and greatshield lothric fuckers you can't even guard break if your WA doesn't do it in one go because they attack immediately after their shield is hit and that resets their infinite stamina
It's bullshit I tell you
>>
>>150285497
>k***hts
I honestly still can't believe this is in the filter.
Why didn't they learn from DS2?
>>
>>150285107
I like the Demon's Greataxe. It's heavy, it doesn't have the most elegant moveset, and it takes a lot of strength to wield one handed. But it hits like a goddamn truck, and it's certainly got range. If the downsides of that turn you off, I'd try the Zweihander. Real easy to get early on, the requirements are low, still hits pretty hard, and has very good range. However, it only has a C scaling with strength.
>>
>>150284992
two-handed R1s should work. you need to hit the head to stagger it
>>150285102
that makes it more difficult, because you don't get free headshots on spawn anymore. if you don't want to learn its moveset, you can stay far away from it and bait the charge attack and try to stagger it during the charge. i use Gargoyle Flame Hammer to kill the dogs this way on my sl1 character, but i use it with RTSR. i know that it staggers them with one charged R2 to the head in every NG cycle
you can come back to kill the dog later when you're higher level and your weapon is better upgraded and try this again, i think it will work fine with leveled character on NG
>>
>>150285497
fucking greataxe black knights have 5 attack strings

for the greatshield lothric knights I've found that just bashing their head in with a two handed hammer like the club works since they stagger from one hit, and 2-3 blocks will guard break them (2 at high wall, 3 at castle)
>>
>>150285590
>However, it only has a C scaling with strength.
"Only"? The halberd I'm using has like D/D scaling or something like that
I'll definitely go try out the Greataxe once I get far enough and see if it's too slow for me. I absolutely love blocking a boss and just quickly getting a stab in from far away

What was your first character from your first game like? Mine was in DS1, and I think I minmaxed a little too much for my first time through. I got full Giants, Greatshield of Artorias, and Demon's Greataxe. The downside to wearing so much heavy shit is that you can only midroll even with lots of endurance and Ring of FaP+Havel's, but who needs to roll when you have the best greatshield+heavy armor in the game? And the DGA is probably one of the best strength weapons in the game. I later threw in a pyro flame to cast Power Within to hit even HARDER.

So did your first character come out okay?

Demon's Souls.
Europe's default version of the game came with an artwork book, an audio CD, and a guide to the game.
It being my souls game I was struggling a lot, even with the guide.

I can't remember much about my stats though. I know went for a melee character, I can remember that much, but I got stuck at some point and decided to make a royalty.
After killing a few bosses with spells and realizing that the game isn't that scary, I went back to my meleedude and finished the rest of the game with him without using magic.

I did make liberal use of the thief's ring and the crescent falchion though.

Dark Souls.

I put a bit of everything on my knight, even INT and RES. Started using the broadsword, then changed to the battle axe. Got the Drake Sword (a friend told me how to get it), but I discarded it after killing a bunch of hollows because it felt like cheating. Eventually I changed to a bastard sword, then once I got to Sen's, the manserpent gs which I used for the rest of the game.

Used the grass crest shield for a while, then changed to the eagle shield. For armor, used the starter knight set for most of the game, only changing for the EK version of the helmet.

I fat rolled until O&S because I hadn't figured how equip load worked. I also never found Havel somehow. I reached O&S at SL 30~, I remember this because I farmed there until SL 60, to beat them.

Also I never found about parry until my second playthrough.

DS1, K***ht start.

Fatrolled all the way to Sen's.

Took the master key as a gift because from the description I figured it would be the most useful thing to have, but never managed to accidentally do ebin sequence breaks with it. However, I did get lucky and went to check out Darkroot where I died to the fucking moth at least a dozen times before the Depths, so I had lots of mosses to make Blighttown less obnoxious.

Used a zweihander for most of the game because I fucking love zweihanders and didn't realize it's a meme. Fuck shields, never liked sword and board, but I did start wearing the grass crest on my back after a friend told me about the stamina regen bonus. Started with basic bitch fashion wearing the knight/elite knight sets, then went for pic related, and at the end wore the painting guardian set with mask of the child.

In NG+ I suddenly decided I really liked Ornstein and started pumping faith to use his spear. It's been one of my weaponfus ever since.

It was fun.
>>
>>150287009
DS1

Started as a warrior, I got the BKS from the burg black k***ht, I farmed souls to use it one handed before killing gargs (which destroyed my ass many times). Eventually stumbled across EK set and zwei a bit later on, this is where my fatroll started. Eventually got to depths, got cursed, did the WHOLE depths+blighttown before going to oswald to buy a purging stone. In the end my set was Gold hemmed hood, ornstein's armor, havel's gauntlets and leggings. I had 25 vit, 18 dex (BKS) and all the rest in END and STR. Many R2s pancakes were used, I actually only used R1s when i was surrounded by enemies.

Zwei is still my favorite weapon but I don't R2 anymore because I realized R1s are often better and in PvP using the R2 is asking for a backstab

Oh and, I used the Knight shield until I got Crest shield

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think there is an american law that forbids any child looking child to be visually harmed inside a game. That would be the same reason we don't see Ellie getting ravaged by zombies in The Last of Us. Since this game is obviously targeted to american audiences they might have just deleted the baby's model out of the game since getting a baby to visually get splashed into a mush of blood would be too graphic (because of the law, that is).

I went with a mix of wanderers and elite knight armor, and used a claymore. I had like 20 str and 30 dex but still made the clay lightning because it had more AR and i didn't know how that shit works. Also had like 20 RES.

Initially i almost ended up ragequitting because of Tauruas but i ended up making a new char with the masterkey just for the gold pine and managed to beat taurus after a gorillion tries. After that i got through parish to andre in one try which made me feel so good that i decided to never drop the game. A while in i got stuck at demon firesage of all things with the equipment above and i just couldn't fucking beat him so i made a new char and cheesed the whole game with a BKH. i regret nothing

Crossbow uses explosive and splintering bolts. Splintering kinda looks like a blunderbuss shot which is cool.
Hornet, caestus and raw mail breaker is just if the host has a bazzillion phantoms baby sitting him. You know, the usual 9 out of 10 invasions.

22 STR, 19 VIT, 20 END, 20 DEX gonna focus more on STR and END later though

>Weapons
Using a Bastard Sword +9 and a Halberd +9
Have a Zweihander in storage until I get my strength up, also have lighting spear, black knight greatsword and ricards rapier, along with other stuff

>Armour
Crimson robes and mask of the sealer. wearing FaP ring and havels ring so I can pull off fast rolls

>Magic
some soul arrows. Picked up power within and some other stuff but only 1 attunement slot, 9 FAI, 13 INT idgaf about magic

The crestfallen knight said Blighttown was far below, so I went to the ruins, pretty much straight after ringing the first bell. Kept inching my way through, repeatedly getting buttfucked by ghosts until I got pretty good. The 6 hours was spread across a few days. Whenever I got enough souls I would run all the way back to firelink and level up. Eventually I met the keeper of the seal and he didn't help me. I couldn't access the seal gate because I didn't have a key. I gave up and went to the internet to find out where to go. fun times

Oh.
Are (Ultra)greatswords really that bad this time around? I'm getting around just fine with my Claymore.

I'm rather tight on titanite. Do you think it'd be better than my current +6 Claymore?
What about the Astora GS?
There's so many weapons that I'm wondering about whether they'd be stronger than my claymore if upgraded, but I really really love the claymore's stabby R2 attack. It's so incredibly useful because of the range on it.

Yes. All great weapons are bad.

You hit once with a Greataxe/UGS/Greathammer for ~350 damage and the opponent rolls away if he has stamina.
You hit once with a Longsword for 200 damage but you stunlock him for another hit and even a third one if he does a bad roll.
Even better, with 2kat, if you land a L1 which is pretty fast, you can combo ~500 damage without chance of escape. Even more if buffed.

You can win with broken straight sword in those if you are lucky and the people you invade are bad.

Those two are literally the only two axes worth a bit. All the others are hot garbage, the Demon's probably being the worst. The BKGS used to be good then it got nerfed because STR can't be good.

Even then, any player with a fast weapon can win easily if he never trades, just spam roll until you run out of stamina then punish you with running attacks. If he has an estoc, even easier.

That doesn't always work. Also only yhorm's is remotely good for true trades as it has range. All other GA and GH get outranged and outdamaged by almost all halberds, and outspeeded by all other weapon classes but UGS who are only thing shittier than GAs and GHs.

If you have to have a console the PS4 isn't exactly awful. Just buy a couple of pretty games on it you would otherwise get to justify it.

For me it works because my PC is only middling in quality so every now and then (just cause 3) I find a game that would make it chug so I nab it for PS4...for which JC3 is a bad example because apparently it chugs on all systems.

My first proper character in any souls game (after dying to the tutorial boss in DeS and refusing to install DaS1 on PC because of windows live) was a sorcerer in DaS2, it took until fighting dragonrider for me to actually consider using a weapon, and eventually I ended up being a Dex/Faith/Adp build using a lightning infused estoc.

It is technically a different area. I think using Dancer's makes it load some of high wall which might hurt performance.
>>
>>150301887
But what if he needs to parry?
>>
>>150301584
If you want to go pure strength, you have some fun options, but remember you'll be shit in PvP.

I personally really enjoy The Great Sword. It's in Farron Keep so there isn't too far until you get to it (rock a Zweihander until then). It's just a great big hunk of iron that does great damage. Only go two handed and fuck shields.

Other Ultra Great weapons to look into are the Profaned Greatsword, the Fume UGS and Great Machete (replace with Yhorm's Great Machete when you get to it).

The point of the shield of want is that in addition to being a decent shield, it lets you use your main weapons WA one handed and it also increases the amount of souls you get so it is still useful even if you don't like blocking.

Decent vitality for some of the beefer armor, lloyds shield ring, steel ring of protection, blue tearstone, speckled ring. Then either buff with deep protection, sacred oath, or tears of denial. Alternatively replace a ring with princess and use bountiful sunlight and blessed weapons for a lot of regen to make better use of lloyds sheild ring.

My first character in DeS was a wanderer named Khorne. He took what he could use, learning magic, miracles, and favoring dexterity, until he came across the Dragon Bone Smasher, at which point he dropped his falchion for it. My first PvP kill was fighting someone else with it while grinding souls so I could one hand it. His typical attire was Hard Leather Pants and nothing else, though later on he put on a Saint's Robe, but also in that disgusting Valley of Defilement he found another love, the Meat Cleaver. He leaned toward regeneration stacking, Adjudicator shield on the back with the ring.

I picked him up a year later coming back to DeS and he was doing no damage at all with his DBS to the 4-2 skeletons, so I thought it was time to retire him.

First DS1 character was a knight who spent his life fatrolling until Anor Londo and died a fuckton to Balder Knights along the way. He picked up the halberd, eagle shield, EK set, Spidertit's Sword, and some pyro spells at different points in his journey until Anal Rodeo where I promptly got my shit stomped by O&S about 20 times. His 'berd dealt little damage and the spider tiddies sword dealt even less so I decided to retire him

First complete run was a dex/pyro run that used Silver Knight Sword/Shield, tons of fire spells, and the gold-hemmed robes right up until the end. I also tried to into the Lifehunt Scythe but my SKS outclassed it in pretty much every regard.

dlcs cant make playthroughs less linear except if they are placed very early in the game and have accordingly low difficulty.

How does counter damage work? http://darksouls.wikidot.com/counter
Can I use a shield+spear and just try to stab at the enemy right before it hits me while still staying behind my shield?

hit them while their attack animation is still playing

yes, you could do that, but blocking attacks in DS3 costs a shitload of stamina so I don't know how wise that is

i don't understand why there's no ability to extend hyperarmor frames with enough poise or add hyperarmor to weapons that normally lack it with the exception of longswords, rapiers and curved swords
like imagine 30 poise activating hyperarmor frames on normal axe or club r1s
it's literally everything those weapons need to be competitive, especially clubs

>so, more phantoms, weapons and armor like in ds2 i guess?
Basically.
Switch up the enemy placements a little, maybe put some red eyes versions of enemies into certain areas, shuffle a few mimic chests.

>like what? maybe increasing the difficulty even before ng+?
Yeah. Maybe add shit like more aggressive enemies in some of the earlier areas, or maybe put some of the ng+ content to be found in the early areas if you go there after the eclipse.

>dlcs cant make playthroughs less linear except if they are placed very early in the game and have accordingly low difficulty

Well, that's technically true yeah, but suppose there was a DLC access point in Cathedral of the Deep or the Road of Sacrifices (be it accessible only later in the game or not), it would make the place feel much less it it railroads you to hell.

They don't have to take the linearity away from the MAIN STORYLINE, just the level infrastructure overall.

>except if they are placed very early in the game and have accordingly low difficulty
DS2 had DLC access points fairly if not early in the game, then in the earlier half of the game, like The Rotten had a DLC access point and Iron Keep did too.

>>150306925
I meant that the released game looks better. The content in DS3 is very good, just the way it's organized is something I don't like as much.

You can get counter hits on all attacks that do thrust type damage. Yes, that includes bows because they're considered a "thrust" type attack.

I'm not an expert on laptops or computers in general, but :
1. DS3 I've heard is CPU intensive
2. You shouldn't sink a lot of money trying to make a laptop a good gayman pc, especially if you're aiming to make DS3 run well because even with good PCs, it's a crapshoot whether it runs well or not, since some of my acquaintances have reported dogshit performance on actually good PCs because it's very unoptimized technically for both pc and console, suffering from frame drops and texture pop-in. Of course, this is hearsay.

But currently, DS3 really lacks replay value, so I'd recommend putting your money to DS2 Scholar and maybe get MGS5 as well and play those until the DS3 DLCs are out.

Damage-wise, I do not think so personally, however Sorcery has extreme accuracy issues in PvP, in my experience.

There are only a very small handful of spells that will consistently and/or reliably hit your target, and most of these spells are either low damage, or inefficient.

In PvP sorcery boils down to whittling your opponent's HP away, hopefully getting a lucky roll catch with a CSS or Soul Greatsword.

In PvE, sorcery is perfectly fine. The early game and late game are very easy, but I found mid-game pretty challenging, since there is a whole slew of magic-resistant bosses and enemies, namely Aldritch and Oceiros, that I personally had an extraordinarily difficult time defeating, with the aforementioned requiring a second phantom in order to defeat.

>>150317067
27 Vig, 40 End.
Get 10 dex to meet most UGS requirements.
Pump strength. 66 strength for maximum damage, 50 for 1h fume.
If you're going to 120/125, bring your Vig to 39 and then pump any excess points you have into vitality.

Demon's Souls forces your hand so it isn't a self-imposed challenge.
Dark Souls 1 is so stingy with the Warp that there's no point in NOT using it.

DeS you could replace the bonfires as not allowing you to return to the Nexus unless you die. That's what I did.
In 1, it's a very good challange since yiu start thinking the best routes and, outside the lord soul bosses, no bonfire is perfectly doable. You also need to plan ahead moss for blighttown, for instance, given how you can't afford losing estus
>>
>>150321235
Bear in mind this is the game where players typically had between 2k and 3k HP and the damage ceiling for ultras was somewhere north of 800 per swing. The higher total HP of 2 meant that the differences in damage extremes were bigger and corresponded better to the differences in speed, stat-investment and stamina cost.

I feel silly saying that because I've written rants complaining about how ultras in DaS2 didn't do enough damage relative to their countless drawbacks, but DaS3 somehow actually made the ratio even worse. So much worse, in fact, that I miss DaS2 in retrospect. I felt much less disadvantaged using slow, clunky ultras against tryhards in 2 than I do in 3

What's your most recent character and what do you want to do with them, /dsg/ ?

My character is Alfred, a Way of White Temple Knight. I'm going to groom him to use spears and Halberds and Miracles, and I'm going to make him ready for the first DLC by leveling him up and finishing most of the game but not taking him to NG+ yet. The name "Alfred" is because I'm taking him after the Demon's Souls Tower Knight and I'm probably aiming for a similar type of build (heavy shield and a spear).

Probably gonna use the Blessed upgrade path too.

Ultras got so much worse in DaS3 that it makes 2 look better retroactively.

Really, the whole of DaS3 makes 2 compare more favourably overall. We didn't realize how good we had it until it got even fucking worse. Boy do I love investing 66 points in strength just to deal 236 damage per swing in qualitysouls 3, and have most players roll out before a second swing when they attack into a hyperarmor trade because this game is mechanically balanced and well thought out. I also love hyperarmor being governed by an invisible value that causes my attacks to arbitrarily and unpredictably become interruptible. I also love that vertical attacks can randomly strike my character's head to deal more damage and ignore my hyperarmor entirely, and that claws have stronger HA than ultras because we can't have slow weapons being good in fast-weapons-onlysouls 3.

DS1 is alive for 5 years now. DS2 died in under two.
DS3 is only losing playerbase because of absence of new content. By this time we already had one DS2 DLC and second would be released in like 4 weeks.

And yet, despite all of that, archery runs are still completely viable.

And how does LCK center around bows? I mean it would be cool if a bow had triple scaling, no lie, but archery is all about skill bruh.

The worst part of DaS3 is the stretch from Farron Keep to the Dancer.

The earlygame isn't so bad because at least the level design is interesting, but the mid section full of half-assed areas, linear corridors and bland monster closets is absolutely cancer. It reminds me of the stretch from Shaded Woods through tseldora in vanilla DaS2 in the worst possible way, except it's even longer and more drawn out.

I think one of the compromises they should've made is :
Either the invader gets full Estus or the Host's Estus doesn't refill after killing an invader.

>Curved ultra greatswords have poise on all their moves except rolling and running attacks. The multiplier is just 50, jumping up to 75 on stronger moves like weapon arts, or charged r2s. You need more poise to poise with those weapons.

>Yes, you did read that right, claymores get 150 naturally on their r1s and r2s. So does every other standard greatsword. They're naturally better at poising than heavy weapons. So are glaives. With the way the multipliers work, 20+ poise turns into 30+ poise, so you don't need cripplingly high vitality to get really good poise from these weapons.

Reading how poise 'works' in this game is giving me an aneurysm, not even getting into the multipliers for it.

Unless you killed everything beforehand and are explicity planning for it, the invader had significant chances of reaching you.

First, you immerse yourself in your character's A E S T H E T I C. What do they look like? Is he a gallant knight like Biorr, or a fat pig waifu like Mildred? Think of an unusual name that matches this A E S T H E T I C in raw sound. Rarely, if ever, go for the most common names. They can work, but a lot of times they lack character. Then, go through a list of reasons why you might name a character this. Is it relevant to your build? Yes? Is it catchy and memorable? Yes? Then that might be it. If not, think of a different name, or try playing with words to make up a name that fits the character. Axeman Sebastian seems like a decent name for a poor militia fighter with a lumber axe, going by uncommon name choice. Guillo the Great is my greataxe waifu, she grins like a mad woman and hits things with fully charged R2s a lot.

the damage of the dagger swing needs to be increased and the full L1 combo should be unparriable. the final stage of the L1 combo should have next to zero recovery time. parrying with this weapon's specific weapon art should give a riposte damage bonus, or replace the weapon art with something more useful.

Humanity is fucking easy to come by in DaS. All enemies build up a hidden meter to give you a soft humanity straight to your counter. There's literally humanity enemies which drop humanity like candy. Lots of people sell humanity that if you were to go out and get all of them, you'd have plenty. Plus you get it from successful invasions, beating invaders, and cooperation. Not to mention that he's complaining about how it is impossible to buy literally anything without raising your SM in DaS2, rather than the unavailability. From doesn't want people to invade in DaS2. They want people to go human in DaS1, they started throwing humanity everywhere, and in Oolacile it's everywhere. There is no such place for Cracked Red Eye Orbs. You get one lootable corpse, and a couple enemies that drop CREOs, versus the hordes of humanity sprites in the humanity level with the humanity boss whose soul is a humanity gone wild and who drops ten humanity when you kill him.
