I know why this happens, and I already have DSFix installed, and I have the appdata file open, but I don't know what I should change the settings to. My laptop's not a potato so it doesn't need to be super low, but like I said, it was lagging a bit. Can anybody help me here?

What a champ

One thing I really appreciate about DS3 is that some levels feel like great fucking slaughters when you progress in them since they throw a lot of dudes at you but at the same time it doesn't feel cheap because the combat mechanics really accommodate you well.
You feel like an ABSOLUTE BADASS clearing out a whole level in DS3.

>>151211024
Black Knights are just empty suits of armor. Notice how they don't bleed in DS3 while Silver Knights do? Silver Knights also have ragdolls.

>>151211156
That tends to be because a tonne of the enemies you fight are harmless fodder meant to just be filler that your sword cleaves through. It's a very Dynasty Warriors approach to combat. The Irithyll Slave guys are a great example. You typically encounter them in groups of no less than 3, with other enemy backup, but if you actually try to fight them they're always so incredibly slow that you could barefist punch a whole group to death before any of them ever got an attack off. You would have to actually stop and LET them attack in order to ever get hit by them.

If I'm going to be fighting through groups of enemies, I'd rather they be groups where every individual enemy is a threat than ones where every individual enemy is purpose built to just be a body in a crowd of bodies that exist just to be hit by the player so the casuals can say "aww yeah, I hit stuff!"

There was debate whether Silver Knights were just empty suits of armor as well since in DS1 they give out a similar death sound as the Black Knights and vanish without leaving a ragdoll. They also disappear if Anor Londo goes Dark, which meant that it might be Gwyndolin who made them as illusions. However, in DS3 they are corporeal.

While fatrolling you can't escape r1 spam, so yeah it's pretty detrimental. But if you can hold your enemies off they will not be able to do this. Remember to also use a chloranthy ring to negate the stamina regen penalty from fatrolling.

>>151211846
The Irithyll soldier-slaves are Dregling 2.0-they're meant to distract you while the Fire Witch burns you up. And yeah, they're slow as shit and mostly parry training but they're fun to hack up inbetween Pontiff Knights.

If they were Illusions, they would not leave ragdolls. And if they were illusions made by Gwyndolin, they wouldn't have survived Aldritch voring him. Not to mention there's a Red Eyes Silver Knight and red eyes is a telktale sign of a hollow.
My guess is that Pontiff reinstated the Silver Knights considering they're protecting Aldritch.

>>151213453
The defining characteristic of bloodborne enemies is a single, obvious weakpoint extremely vulnerable to singular heavy hits by large strength weapons and which trigger a riposte when struck.

>>151213779
They also expect you to level endlessly. Having a meta level cap is a community thing. And to be fair, if you are 387, there really isn't a reason to not level vit.

>>151213127
Well, it was working fine before I upped the resolution a tiny bit and now it won't open. So I don't fucking get it. I even fiddled with some of the settings in the appdata and it didn't make anything better.

Is Yhrom's Machete the best weapon for a pure STR build?

>>151213847
You mean the pontiff beasts head? Because the one on the bridge is easy with a greatweapon. You just charge an r2 while it's doing it's roar and follow up with a riposte.

>>151213779
I always have at least two weapons on me, limiting yourself is only for Challenge runs or theme builds.

Speaking of which, I've been toying with the idea of Item Burden coming back.

>>151213997
>They also expect you to level endlessly.
They have made the same game 5 times and everytime the community makes a meta level.
It is From that is the problem not the community.

>>151214145
Yep.

The 2 in the pit always begin by doing a jumping attack at you that moves a fixed distance. learn where they land and you can stand right out of reach and charge an R2 for a free riposte and instantkill.

>tfw hollow ultra gutsword has the highest physical AR of any weapon in-game

neat

>>151214246
mine always doing a charging bite at me that has a bullshit hitbox

>>151214234
Again, that is on the community not them. If they community makes their own meta then it is on the community to manage it. After all, it's not the way From intends the game to be played.

I am not saying there is anything wrong with a meta. I rather enjoy it, actually. However, you can't lay any problems with it at the feet of From.

>>151214190
>I've been toying with the idea of Item Burden coming back.
then it's a good thing that you're not in charge of making the games, because fuck you.

>>151213997
That's a fair point, but whats the point in leveling if you don't have to? I'm at 60 right now and don't see myself going further unless I really want to partake in fight clubs.

>>151214190
I usually carry a main weapon with a shield and a backup light weapon in my offhand and I've never had trouble with weight limits. The exception to that are when I decide to use a fuckhuge weapon, but that's extremely rare for me.

>>151214578
>After all, it's not the way From intends the game to be played.
Your right they intend you to play the game with the Knight class starting gear all the way through.

Yes it is From's problem, no one levels infinitly like they want other then super autists. They lock off pvp with level brackets so it only makes sense for people to stick to a bracket that everyone else is on. From is just too busy being Japanese to stop being retarded.

>>151214579
Here's my idea for it, hear me out before you chimp :
>Item burden increases with END which increases stamina and VIT.
>you have an "excess" loot bag where shit that goes over your burden gets dumped into
>however, if you die, the items in the excess get put into your bloodstain
>if someone invades you while you have it in the world and kills you, they'll get your items as a reward too

>>151214331
tell me

>>151214603
>but whats the point in leveling if you don't have to?

I could ask why you leveled beyond level 1 or the base stats of any weapon then, because whatever reason you kept leveling to 60 is the same reason people level beyond that.

>>151214942
I kind of wish they would add a hard cap at like level 100 in their games, but until they do, we can only make the best of what they give us. But we can't blame them for not pandering to our made up rules that we can't even agree on half the time.

Also, PvP in the games was never meant to be an organized this. The game's primary focus was always PvE.

>>151212160
1HR1 is a more-or-less vertical swing

2HR2 is where it's at though

>Disagree. Hard.

Why?

It doesn't necessarily have to be 100 either. I just picked that number out of the air.

The idea is that it would make it much easier to balance gear and connect in PvE and PvP. Plus, it would improve PvP because people wouldn't be able to over-level for advantage. It would also make planning out builds more fun too.

>>151215612

>But we can't blame them for not pandering to our made up rules
I'm not asking for pandering just asking them to not have a shitty stat system.

Someone who wants heavy armor basically gutters 75% of their first leveling NG for 5-10% less damage taken.

I agree that the vit end split was stupid, especially since they fucked over poise. Honestly though, the split would have been 10/10 amazing if poise still functioned like it did in DaS1. It would have also given you a reason not to just go Quality at 125, because you would have to give up something to get enough poise for those better armors. Even more so because Poise in DaS3 has diminishing returns.

>>151215803
Adding a hard cap and making it low at that would make NG+ cycles annoyingly difficult and honestly they should just even end the softcaps at much higher ranges after the DLC drops and nerf Refined scaling so focusing either in STR or DEX over the other would mean something. And if being SL100 was the hard cap, nobody would bother invading lower than that vecause of the risk of invading higher than yourself, kilking all non-metafaggot invasions.

>>151216106

The Vit/End split made sense like you said if they actually kept 1s poise system, but they didn't. Instead 2 worked on a system that while having 'functioning' poise was completely screwed over by the poise modifiers of 2H weapons and the buffed Stone Ring. In 3 is just makes no sense why it still exists; not only does poise have diminishing returns like you said, but heavier armor sets like Havel's are actually heavier then they were in previous games while not having the same degree of damage protection and poise. And Vitality as a stat in 3 adds horrible investment per stat in weight load it gives on top of that. There's no reason they add to bring that back from 2, but 3 seems to have a weird habit of bringing back some of the worst aspects of previous games in its design.

>>151215848
Complaining that heavy armor users "get fucked over" in DS3 where even Cathedral Knight Armor users can fastroll everywhere and Full Knight armor can fastroll at base VIT is just amusing.

>tfw want to make an 838 superman build but dont know enough about the game to do so

>>151216216
People do ng pluses at level 1. Doing NG+1 or 2 at 100 is a non issue. Doing NG+7 at 100 is a fun challenge. There is no point in doing them if you are just going to level up and negate the additional challenge anyway, in my opinion.

>>151216106
Even if they aren't balancing the game for "meta" the game isn't even balanced for NG.

by the end of NG you are about 80-90 at that range only quality and pyro can have a "balanced" build that has enough VIG END and damage stats.

Even the other builds that can have decent stat spreads by 80-90 will have had a shit time for half the game since they had to waste points on VIT or waited half the game for decent spells.

>tfw no faster than dogs, teleporting giant cockroach enemies

>>151216520
Heavy armor also does nothing to make them worth wearing. Bosses do %health so you might last 1 extra hit.

>>151216587
Using any of the weapons with fuckmassive STR requirements also forces you to pump END a lot so you could swing them more than once. And VIT so you can wear shit like Morne's Set.
Yes, people do NG+7 runs on SL1 characters, but the range on what they can use as weapons is limited as hell.

True but if the meta was 100, they could make adjustments so a build could be perfected at that level. A set cap would give them more direction. BB's best meta was 98, for example.

Any ultra can react to the R1 of another ultra with an attack of their own and still have enough time to get their hyperarmor.

Never initiate aggression in an ultra-fight with an R1.
If you're using a UGS with a thrust R2, your thrust will out-trade any R1, give you counter-bonus and you can hold it to delay the attack to ensure your HA is still active when their reactive attack lands (baiting them, in essence)

You can do this with any R2, but you won't win the trade as cleanly without the thrust bnonus and some R2s, like the greathammer 2HR2 is so fucking bad holy shit don't even try.

With greataxes, just jump on their dick and pray you win out. Nothing out-damages greataxes straight-up so barring lag or some unexpected surprise, you should be able to handle trades and come out advantaged

Sl1s can use the pgs. And that is not the point, the point is you don't need to reach 212 for ng+7

>>151218528

And it's more because of how bad the other Great Hammers are if anything, since all the Pickaxe has going for it are hard hitting Leo Ring counters despite it's relatively low AR. I guess Morne's is alright too because of the WA but it's so stat intensive and suffers the problems of other Great Hammers that it only works on a niche build.

Is the DS3 meta SL 120 or 125? I can't remember which I read was the most agreed upon.

They both have shitty running/backstep/1H attacks though, so one of the better normal spears is likely to have equal rollcatch ability plus actually good running/backstep/1H attacks.

Hello FC friends,

I would like to remind you all that the usage of Meta weapons, hornet ring, and other, similar faggotry is highly discouraged.

excessively passive fighting is 100% banned because of the high attendance and small arena

that is all, thank you for allowing me to fufill my dream as an official /dsg/ fun police

Why is it whenever people use buffs in DaS3 it's always faith buffs?

Is CMW worse?

>>151231361

>>151232934
>ban passive faggotry

step it up

>>151232994

Less INT builds, people somehow think Darmoon Blade is the best buff when mechanically speaking it's the same as Lightning Blade/CMW at 60 of the respective stats but with magic damage.

>>151232851
It has a really good 2HR2 as well, and it's ridiculously long too. But I don't think the 2HR2 is as fucklong as Pike class weapons. Still, the running attack is great.

I never did like the DSS Lightning Charge, though. But it does seem to do some damage. Eh.

>>151232994
The only reason CMW is worse is because the best Sorcery catalyst has less Spell Buff than the best Faith catalyst. It's still highly usable, but only recommended if you have more Int stuff than just CMW.

>>151232476
Why don't you just buy the DX9 version instead then? If your toaster can't support DX10 or later, you probably shouldn't be buying games made after 2005.

Is it possible to do a Solid Snake playthrough of DS3, 2, or 1, not alerting any enemies except bosses to your presence?

>>151233391
p sure hidden body+slumbering dragon ring+ some other spell I can't remember makes you undetectable from mobs. Plus there are certain enemies you can just walk slowly past and they wont notice you (if they can't see you)

>>151233281
I mean if you hit the Lightning Charge all the way it does some big ass damage, and if only hit the lightning at max range you can connect a R1.

>>151233492
Makes sense, since most are 40-45 levels above you, then some are probably 100+ levels above you too

You're guaranteed to encounter some enemies in DaS3. However, Hidden Body + Slumbering Dragoncrest Ring + not-extremely-heavy equip load lets you bypass FUCKING EVERYTHING without so much of a passing glance, making things a goddamn breeze to pass through. Can't remember if Hidden Body/Slumbering is in other games though.

Picture this, everyone follows lucy's advice and "git's gud" with CCS because that is the logical thing to do to win in this game (as much as I hate to admit it). Then suddenly all FC matches take 10x longer than normal, and everybody uses the same weapons. Then, wtf is the point of even having /dsg/ FC's when the same experience can be found at pontiff? at popular FC's summon times are already long enough to begin with, so people will just think to themselves "eh, well there's really no reason to do this", /dsg/ FC's die, and nobody is left with any reason to play the game because it simply isn't fun

There really is no reason to play, though. /dsg/ is just full of Pontiff variety shitters who got tired of using CCS, summon someone without a CCS at Pontiff's and look at the similarities between a fight here and there.

>>151234704
You forget /dsg/ skill levels vary. There would still be people whi'd use weaker or weird weapons and win. They'd actually pick those to show they can handicap themselves versus /dsg/ and win

It still blurrs that out? Well, shit.

Host how many signs we got? Enough people for FFA cage matches?

>>151236446
Yeah, but I'd just prefer a second host, honestly.

>>151236446
Many

Is Kakyoin even a good character?

>>151236140
It doesn't matter if they are vincent or drake, what matters is if they play like pontiff shitters or not.

Does someone here want to come over to my place and break my legs while I go through the cathedral of the deep?

>>151236614
No. Araki forgot anything interesting about his stand power immediately, he's in the hospital for half of the part, and he only comes back to job repeatedly

>>151236614
If anything, I'd rather have him than 4kingsfag or Lucy. At least he talks about the game and doesn't shit up the OP.

>>151235925
Actually vincent just rushes you, or at least me, and it feels like he hates you to death when he does this.

>>151236614
He's good for the first part and then he stops being relevant for most of it and jobs at the end.

>>151236614
He's the Krillin of part 3. He'd be cool if the author would actually let him do what he can do and exists only to job.

@FC peeps

Second fights should occur up the lift

Or we get another host in on this shit

Or we start doing FFA's

Just my opinion senpai. If Drake in his infinite wisdom could make an official FC host decree that'd be great

He's an unstable man

Magic Knight how have your fights been in terms of latency? You're lagging on my end so I'm curious.

>>151236952
Give me a few and I can host an FFA

Why couldn't Cornyx, Karla, Irene, and Greirat just teleport out of their cells before they talked to you?

>>151237376

Ivory King throneroom still best location
