Rolling and attacking would be better in most cases.
Shield bash on a build that doesn't rely on shields for blocking is pointless, and since shields are shit in Bloodborne Souls 3, there's no point.

I've shieldbroken greatshields with a pocket BSS plenty of times. The stamina cost for rolling is so trivial, and the risk of being shieldbroken and riposted is so great that I can't imagine using one purely for blocking.

>>152467752
You can shieldbreak anything

even if you had 90 stability GS can still be shieldbroken with a combination of bad stamina management on behalf of the user and well-thoughtout aggressiveness on the attack

saying they're flatout bad or useless is an enormous overstatement, when in fact they're probably the singular most powerful thing a player can have to trivialize both PvE and PvE

GUESS WHAT SHIT-FOR-BRAINS?

IT'S TIME FOR AN OFFICIAL /dsg/ IRITHYLL LEDGE PC FC. GET YOUR FAT ASSES OVER HERE.

The following is effectively banned:
Hornet Ring
Hyperpassivity
Of course, I have no real way to enforce these rules, so you can bring them if you'd like, just don't expect to get summoned again.


Otherwise, everything else is tolerated. However, meta weapons and tactics are highly frowned upon as they are non-conducive to a friendly pvp environment

You have to understand that From has no intentions to design invasions in the favor of the invader, because that would be extremely stupid. The purpose of invading is to hinder the progress of the host through the level, that's it. You're just a random chance mini boss encounter.

>>152471208
It's just cut content that got left in.
There's a whole bundle of old cut content from early-development that were obviously left in from before they had a clear direction for the game. Tonnes of things reference "the Frigid Valley" and refer to Sulyvahn as some Old Dark King possessed by an ancient evil.

That key is referencing the bridge at the start of the undead settlement, and supposedly was from before they decided to lazily recycle the batwing demons.

You were fine on my end, I thought you froze cause you stood still but it was the guy you were fighting. he did the same on my end

>>152472404

Well pontiff is not a king but he is possessed by an ancient evil. He wasn't always like that, only after he discovered the profaned flame.
The DLC could still be about the gods, it is time to wrap that up anyway. I mean when if not now? The DLCs will be very different from the main game anyway as memezaki said

Don't you fucking make him excuses, he wasn't possessed at all. He knew what he did. Just like the jailers in the Irythrill dungeon.

>>152473752

The soul of one of the demons you can get states that the chaos flame didn't survive.
But the thing you see in the profaned capital, that the ladies are guarding is the source of the profaned flame.
The chaos one gave birth to demons and shit and chaos is basically its own element but the profaned one seems to be tainted by the dark, a dark flame so to say. It was created by a curse, I think the weird axe you find by the poopoo monsters has it in the description

Of all the retarded decisions they added to DS3 to castrate invasions, seed is fine.
You have to be invaded for them to grow, and all it does is turn it into a free for all instead of a rousing game of comb the map for the faggot.

Now if you could invade in a 1 v 1 now and then or not switch into way of the blue/summon while invaded it would be better.
But then you'd still have to deal with free sippies (worse if you're a mage), and a dead game cause no invasions on unember or boss clear.

No. It's literally the worst balance decision they carried over from DS2. And they carried a lot of retarded shit from DS2 for invaders. Invader should be an environmental hazard. If he runs to the enemies, summon more coopers. It's that easy. This is how i've dealt with all townshit runners back in DS1, ganking their asses all around the oolacile.

As someone who is playing the souls series for the first time, I am having fun.

I started with Dark Souls 3, and it was kind of rough at first, but as I'm going along I'm wiping less and less to bosses. For all the meme'ing, it really didn't take long to "git gud"

I dislike the game forces an ember on me after every boss kill. I continue playing normally until some faggot invades, then take a dive off the nearest cliff to deny them the satisfaction of a fight. Fuck the pvp minigame.

As soon as I'm done with the pve content, I'm going to Bloodborne, as it has better fashion

>Playing Dark Souls is going to be really painful after being used to SotFS

I'm not a DaS2 hater, but :
Dark Souls 1's combat feels tighter, it seems that like the sound effects are better and while the game is rougher, I think that it has much more atmosphere.

Things like parries and ripostes feel better, Dark Souls 1 is in a word, "unrefined", but I think that it has a certain charm to it thanks to that, and imo it has much more exploration rewards than DS3 for example. I like what DS2 set out to do, but it feels like it fell shorter of it's goals than DaS1 did and I think one reason for that was that DS2 feels like a game that was intended for PS4 / XBone generation of consoles rather than xbox360 / PS3 and they had to scale down everything to fit the game to the other consoles as well as dealing with the fact that a part of the development team fucked off to do shit with Bloodborne.

Well it helps that there's pretty much only one playstyle if you're doing melee and the environments aren't nearly as challenging as Dark Souls 1. The PvE enemies are I'd say harder and put in more challenging arrangements, but :

Dark Souls 1 (and Demon's Souls) had a large variety of playstyles. The game was balanced around the players using decently protective armor that you could upgrade, weapons that could be upgraded to a certain extent with different infusions if you decided to go off the beaten path but generally speaking the game didn't hand you everything as you go along, you can choose to do things in a different order to make things easier for yourself but you didn't have to if you couldn't find said shit or just wanted to tought it out. In Dark Souls 1 you COULD happen upon an optional area and get the Divine Infusion which made Catacombs much less of a pain, but if you were gud or wanted to tough it out without a Divine weapon, you absolutely could depending on how much patience you had. A lot of the times even if you went into a place that was a "dead end", you could find useful shit but happening upon said useful shit wasn't as automatic as it is in Dark Souls 3. You're rewarded for exploration in DS3, but generally speaking the "intended" order to do things railroads the game a whole lot because it's just better in every way with the exception if you want to twink or not.

Anyway back to the point :
Dark Souls 1 was balanced around players having protection and you got the shit roll if your equip load was above 50%. Then you midrolled until you were under 25% which gave you the good roll. If you midrolled, you were more likely get hit and the game was balanced around the player wearing armor and having actual protection (as opposed to DS3 where armor does between jack and shit)

How is a gradual hp handicap that can be offset by a ring worse than instantly losing a significant chunk?

DS2 literally has a system where you can just pray at a Shrine to regain humanity, and that's only if you manage to burn through humanities that they hand out like fucking candy. Like, literally just chests holding 5 of them. I don't remember any chests in DS3 containing embers.

DS33 is the most fun I've had with invasions to be honest.
In ds1 it was just too easy and unreliable. In ds2 lmao soul memory, stopped playing before that ring.

In ds3 however, I think it's a good balance of power between the invader and the host. The only real issue I have is the host being able to summon new phantoms while there is an invader. I think that should be disabled.

This entire fucking convo started with me insisting that seed wasn't "literally the worst balance decision", then someone fucking insisting that summoning was a better solution to an invader.

My entire premise is that seed would be perfectly fine if an invader could actually get a 1 v 1 and the host couldn't summon help out the ass as soon as they see the text.

You're either masochistic or really lucky. I'm not gonna shit on your specific experience, but mine was hosts that kept running and healing for 40 minutes while summoning a fucking legion of phantoms, having blues popping up all the time as well as seeding to fuck me up. Even when I did beat them, it didn't feel good. I can hardly see how that's balanced. In ds1 and 2 at least you had a chance, and it was amazingly fun to screw hosts over in so many creative manners.

I invade in the settlements-catacombs range where your late game gear gives you a significant enough advantage to be able to handle a 3v1 reliably. I'm sure in the end game areas it's pure hell which is why I haven't even bothered.

Continued :
Because you got the best roll(most iframes) when your equip load was under 25%, it meant that you could only wear really light armor, especially if you wanted a weapon worth a damn. This meant that bosses and PvE in general were balanced for midrollers who could tank hits with a shield but your guy was parkouring all over the place practically naked. This along with the more challenging combat ENVIRONMENTS meant that getting 'gud' meant actually getting gud instead of "doing okay playing the game as it was intended by designers". In DS3 everybody "fastrolls" and the game is balanced around everybody fastrolling, even the shitters, so the fastrolls are even more forgiving than they were in DaS1. While I think that the challenge for the average player has increased, this means that there's much less difference between a "gud" player and your average noob shitter IN PVE since everybody can afford the fastrolling playstyle as it's what the game was based around on and the roleplaying has decreased a lot since if you want to be "efficient", you want to go the standard 40/40 quality and in the beginning use a raw infusion. It feels like the entire character progression element just fell out of DS3 in exchange for assuring that everybody gets a good first experience out of the package.

They aren't even that much. Knight has 15 vit which you may or may not use as well as 2 wasted points in fth or int because you aren't going to use both.
Warrior meanwhile has so much luck that a pure quality build wastes a few points too.
Thief is okay but you need to think of something to do with that ATT or it's just more wasted points.

I dunno, it just feels weird to me pyro makes use of every single point he has except vit.

Imagine Dark Souls series as burger meals :
DS1 is a burger that's balanced really well, not overloaded with anything, it tastes good, has all the ingredients in a balanced manner but you don't think much of it until you've tasted the other ones. The last bites have pickles in them and as a last bite you get a fairly sour taste.
The fries, onion rings and the drink are solid and you can get the bundle for a fairly okay price but there's not a whole lot of the sides.

DS2 is a burger with a sloppy steak reminiscent of the first one and it's drowned out by salad, sauce cabbage and pickles, all cheap ingredients but the burger is almost overflowing. In other words, there's a lot of content and you technically speaking get a lot for your money but the core of the experience (i.e the steak) is underwhelming. It staves off the hunger, but at the end of the day, you wouldn't characterize the burger as "good".
The sides are incredibly good, but they don't come with the burger and you have to buy the fries, the onion rings and the drink separately which makes them the most expensive option as a whole.

DS3 is a burger with an amazing steak, good bun and good cheese, but very little salad, the sides are non-existent and the drink that comes with it is tiny. You ate the burger so quickly you almost bit your fingers off but after that went like "wtf, is this all?". You're nervously hoping that maybe the sides will have more to eat since the burger tasted great but you're still hungry and you start miss the extra shit that made the first burger a more balanced meal .

Yeah but the first is unclear on the influence of the loss of humanity on the whole hollowing process.
Dark Souls 2 is a bit more consistent and doesn't contradict itself with "running out of humanity mean you go hollow, oh wait, unless you still have a purpose, once you lose your purpose, you go hollow, and then you lose your humanity, unless you're the player character".

Dark Souls 2 just drops the whole humanity thing (probably because the hollows in Drangleic aren't related to Manus) and just focus on the purpose thing.

>So you're saying the skill ceiling is still the same
Skill ceiling has lowered a lot compared to the average player (again, we're talking about PvE).

>I find nothing wrong with this.
I don't think you could fully understand this since DS3 was your first Souls game.

I partially reject /v/-style "hurr, all that matters is that the game is hard so I can brag to my friends about how I beat it!"-type of thinking, but what DS3 keeping the base experience the same for pretty much everyone and lowering the skill ceiling (I think that it's good that From designed the game around fast and responsive gameplay so that the PvE feels fun) has made one thing kind of a downer in terms of replay value :

There's no real room to grow as a player since you're already playing the "best" there is : all "alternative" playstyles you would try in the game are going to be INFERIOR to the base experience that everyone gets (i.e you don't trade defense for mobility, you can have whatever defense the game allows AND mobility). Similarly the differences between classes are only the stat spread and starting gear. If a Knight fastrolls in their starting armor while wearing all of it and gets an attunement slot from the start instead of having to sacrifice anything else except maybe a stat spread that you might not want depending on the build you're going for but in the end it doesn't even matter because lol you're going to go first raw and then refined because if you aren't, you're a doofus. In DS1 you can go for a variety of different "infusions" fairly early on and they all have their strengths and weaknesses that actually matter because you have choices in terms of progression and where to go, since enemies are weak to a more diverse variety of damage types so it matters. In DS3 there's no planning ahead or making multiple different weapons until around 60-70% of the game because the game is so stingy with upgrade mats you can take equipment past +3 / +6 with.

But hollows aren't Manus related at all. They are related to the flame, the curse only starts when it starts fading, presumably as a way to have it linked.
You don't have humanity which prevents hollowing, you sacrifice it to the bonfire to prevent physical hollowing. 3 rubs in your face hollowing happens independently to your mind and body, but 1 and 2 have proofs too

>>152477842
>>152479579
>>152480563
>>152482116

I don't hate Dark Souls 3. In fact, I love it. I think that Dark Souls 3 had quality poured into it and I feel like they tried their absolute best to mix the best ideas they ever had with the series into a one solid package and for the most part they succeeded.
The audiovisual design is excellent, the gameplay feels fast/responsive and the enemy encounters are designed to be very challenging and I love a lot about the gameplay. It just feels like compared to DS1 and Demon's, there's very little room to grow as a player or do things "differently" without intentionally gimping yourself. Yeah, a fatrolling run is doable, but that's not the point, the point is that it feels like several mechanics that made PLANNING characters, planning runs and thinking ahead irrelevant because you're steadily floating through the controlled progression and your alternative choices are stupid choices (i.e if you don't pick up the coals whenever it's physically possible, you're fucking dumb whereas in DS1 you could skip ahead to get Embers before you were "supposed" to and grind upgrade mats.

DS3 is a better "action" game imo (besides the shittier level interconnectivity that's even made pretty much redundant to the abundance of bonfires) and lacks the "strategic" aspect of DS1 due to a bunch of mechanics getting streamlined in order to ensure that the general audience doesn't miss them.

But I'm not blaming From for this since of course they want to make sure that as many people as possible get a good experience out of Dark Souls 3 even if they only play through the game once so I understand that, but that inherently removes depth out of the game for people playing it more than just once.

There's no reason not to, because it looks good from behind due to the hood matching the FK set.

Aren't the Dark and the Abyss the same thing? I thought the monsters you fought in Oolacille were human deformed by the dark?

The dark and abyss are only the same thing as much as the fire and chaos are, is that more clear?
The Abyss can be argued to be more violent and was created by Manus's humanity(his darkness) going wild and out of control fucking up Oolacile. The dark is just all that is related to humanity or the dark soul. In other words, the Abyss is simply part of the dark as a whole. As might be the deep or not.

I was completely successful with just 20 end. Are you saying you are worse at the game than the Lucy? Is that really something you want to admit in front of all of /dsg/?

Besides, most people are going to 125 now, so that leaves you with 6 points to spare. Those stats are also without rings added in so you could add in something like the Knight ring, and that would get you up to 11 spare points do you can easily boost your END to 30 if you think you needed it.

shield only needs to be used against small things like blocking running attacks of katanas, spears and throwing knives to be honest. 26 end and rofap+2 already enough stamina for 60 stability shields to be useful. Might even block BKGA 2hr1, which you don't need to do.
>>
>>152491158
Depends.
The Initial Farron sword can low-profile under certain boss attacks to dodge with L1s, which is cool as hell. Only really works against twin princes, sulyvah and champion gundyr because the rest have shitty, inaccurate hitboxes.

Wolf GS does more damage and actually has a useful WA for pve, especially against enemies that are normally a pain in the ass like bloodborne skeletons and pontiff knights. You can also use the WA to hit yhorm's head for 1k damage a pop, which makes him easy to kill without stormruler.

I assume the comic was made in response to someone criticizing one of his other comics. Having intended messages, or biases seep into your work is incredibly common, and generally the mark of an inexperienced writer, so for someone to feel the need to respond with something like that, a complete red-herring attempting to undermine any critique of their work, it comes across as remarkably petty and pretentious.

Washing Pole running attacks consume surprisingly big amounts of stamina, gotthards l1 consumes a lot of stamina, glaives do so too in general. Your stamina amount also allows you to be more aggressive. See, when you are attacking your opponent and he rolls your attack, he will end up with more stamina than you due to rolls costing almost nothing. This means that if you are chasing down a guy with running attacks and playing more aggressively, having more END allows you to chase more effectively. If you are playing fairly passively with carthus for example, you do not need that much END. 30 END is around the amount you need in most cases.
>I was completely successful with just 20 end.
And i was succesful with fucking izalith staff used for bashing at pontiffs.
>Besides, most people are going to 125 now, so that leaves you with 6 points to spare.
On PC 120 is the meta currently. And tournaments are SL120 too. PS4 tournaments are SL125 though.
>Besides, most people are going to 125 now, so that leaves you with 6 points to spare.
You lose ring slots in that case and certaing rings are important for increasing your EHP. Prisoner's chain allows you to save 10 levels for one ring slot, while slightly decreasing your EHP, You can compensate those 10% additional damage with some other rings easily, so prisoner's is IMO pretty damn good.

It is mostly a difference of opinion at that point. If you are willing to sacrifice END, than go for it, there is nothing wrong with it. I prefer to go 40 END.

Knight and hunters ring increases like 20 ar in most weapons, there are better rings to use. You can use one of them to compensate even though it only increases like 10~20 ar in most weapons, but both of them is just stupid.

But it's obviously an exaggeration, a simplification of an idea put into a single panel comic.
It's a complaint from the author of a particular type of criticism, not a straw man argument at all.

>>152491645
Possibly, but we do know that there are plenty of people who will look for anything to criticise, even if the thing they are criticising isn't there.
Seemingly deliberate misinterpretations are fairly common, and also very annoying for an artist.

Of course, without knowing what work of his caused that reaction, we can't say if it was a justified response or not.

Personally, I like using the Knight right in my pyro build so I can hard swap in the Astora GS without wasting the stats in str which would never really benefit the rest of my gear. The when I hard swap back to the LKSw I can also swap the ring out and not be stuck with Str I don't need.

Yeah, but if you are running two ring slots for 10 points, chain is pretty damn good. And even at 40 VIG chain adds more EHP than it subtracts when using rofap+2. This means that by running chain you not only save stat points, you also GAIN EHP. This means that with chain i can go for something like this for example:

I fucked up the math. I looked up the spreadsheet for prisoner's chain, at 35 VIG you lose 165 HP when embered with life ring +3, ring of favour +2, the only time where chain doesn't make you lose hp is at 22 VIG. But you end up regenerating more health with bountiful sunlight, hell you end up regenerating more even with replenishment, plus you can swap out of priestess ring after casting bountiful sunlight, meaning that you essentially just spent one slot for saved stat AND EHP increase overall.

>>152495445

It's 1st 1HR1 was one of the fastest moves in Dark Souls 2. And you also have to consider the 130 counter damage. The way counter damage worked in 2 meant not just thrusting attacks benefited from it, but all attacks had a counter bonus depending on the weapon. So you're getting 30% extra damage basically compared to other curved swords when trading. That's also why Katanas were so great in 2 as well because they all had about 150 counter damage.
>>
>>152495148
Faith builds in this game are pretty damn bad, The only two relevant FTH levels are 15. 25, 35 and 60. First three for utility in the form of replenishment, bountiful light, bountiful sunlight and tears of denial, the fourth for DMB and offensive miracles(lel). Regen spells are not important in invasions. You cannot get 60 FTH reasonably at level 70. Leveling faith to any point other than that is pointless, because DMB and offensive miracles give shit damage, if you are not running 60 FTH. This means that you cannot really run low level FTH builds. INT suffers from the same problem.

Parrying feels good in it, and backstep i-frames were so much fun.
>>
>>152496261
The physical defense per point is less effective HP than vigor until you reach 50 vigor. The poise returns for heavy armor are trivial and extremely inefficient for the weight. If you want poise, wear the wolf ring. Undead legion armor and the Wolf Ring give more poise than havel's ring + the heaviest armour you can find. The only time vit translates meaningfully into poise is with Yhorm's greatshield on your back

Ultimately, vitality returns very little in terms of actual numerical power compared to very other stat. It's the resistance of this game just because the relative worth is so much lower.
>>
>>152497636

Yes, honestly people complain about reactive play in 3 but it's always been the best playstyle for these games by far. The way Dark Souls 2s counter system worked was so that you either hit first and roll away or go for trades using a higher AR/counter damage weapon and win out. Interestingly that counter damage modifier was one of the reasons the Key to the Embedded wasn't a joke weapon and actually a serious contender in PvP.

the primary reason of that is how overpowered the WD attacks were
a typical passive spinning fucktard could punish virtually any attempt to get a hit at him by baiting opponent's attack then punishing it with his own WDR1 of some fast weapon by buffering it with spinning
coupled with insane counter damage on some fast weapons, the moment you initiated first attack is the moment you've lost
while ds3 still has that shit with washing pole, it's nowhere nearly as bad as it was in ds2
just look at any current ds2 pvp stream and you will see the depths of passive shittery which are impossible to reach in any other souls game

>>152497636
No. DaS2s reactive play was a consequence of backstepping iframes being too good and running attacks generally being the best attack in a given weapon's moveset. "Spinning," which was the apex of passive play, was strong because it abused a netcode bug that was eventually fixed, and fixing that bug caused the meta to shift back towards more aggressive playstyles.

Counterhits just encouraged trading, which basically meant that some weapons could bully others by swinging aggressively and fishing for trades. It was the source of a lot of DaS2's weapon class imbalance, since a top-tier curved sword with high-AR and 130 counter could out-trade a greatsword with only 100 counter.

In DaS3, you can roll through everything for as long as you want, and there are rings that boost the already generous invincibility even further.
Backstep invincibility would help deal with running r1 pokes, at least, and a nerf to regular rolling iframes would be very welcome.

>>152499338
>that's in all souls games
It is, but it seems way more abusable this time. I think it's because of the Bloodborne-esque speed, but I'd have to see some i-frame comparisons.

I think backstepping through a poke, then following with a backstep attack of your own would discourage this run-and-poke bullshit you see all the time, but maybe it would just add to the flaming pile of shit, who knows?
>>
>>152499338
Rolling through pressure in 2 was actually difficult if the other person was competent, because rolls had recovery and were punishable, while also having a fair stamina cost. You could steamroll bad players in the arena with simple setups like axe + spear and alternate running attacks, because they actually required timing to avoid it. In 3 you can just tell all nearby threats to fuck off by mashing circle and nothing can stop you while you chain 13 consecutive rolls with no vulnerable gaps

I don't need to do it someone else did it for me somewhere in this universe. If you can't find them it's your fault.
>>
>>152497636
For several reasons:
1. Backstep iframes. Because backsteps consumed so little stamina and had such short recovery time combined with its iframes allowed you to Backstep though anything on reaction safely. With enough practice backsteps made you practically invincible, if you do not want to open yourself. Playing passive properly basically made you invincible.
2. Running attacks were so fast, damaging and poise breaking. This encouraged a very passive playstyle of abusing running attacks and backsteps
3. Counter damage worked in a way, which caused certain weapons to become able to outtrade anything. Uchigatana/chaos blade running attack could outtrade any weapon in the game with Leo Ring by a significant margin. This meant that one of the players is forced to not be aggressive, while another player does not want to do anything knowing that he is entirely safe playing passive.
4. Warmth allowed you to heal in duel pretty safely. You couldn't even get pushed out of the range of warmth, because backsteps didn't move you backwards that much.
This all combined meant that nobody had any incentive to do anything basically.

>>152500315
Backsteps weren't a universal option, they still required timing and most things were not punishable by backstepping outside of ultras and really shitty weapons. Most weapons with long active-frames, like Axes, shut down careless backsteps completely. They were pretty much just used for callbacks and punishing predictable people, or bullying bad weapons that had no business being as bad as they were (greathammers)

And backstep parries were just DaS2's setup parry. They punished bad players for mashing but they don't work against people who know better.

Not really two ring slots. Prisoner's takes one ring slot. It makes it more efficient to use if you want regen spells on your quality build, because regen outweighs the extra damage received from using prisoner's. In fact you can run 20 FTH quality build with Priestess Ring used for casting Bountiful Light and then swapped out to something else afterwards, meaning that our essentially gain EXTRA hp for sacrificing one ring slot. And you will only have 165 less EHP when using chain with life ring +3 and RoFaP +2, which often times doesn't matter, because your hits to die stays the same against certain weapons.

Heavy weapons are bad bot because how much damage they do, but because how slow they are. Heavy weapons in this game are shit tier against reactive players because of this. CCS would still be strong, estoc turtles would have even more regen, washing pole would still be strong, etc.

Poise is already balanced around PvE and invasions are balanced around one-and-done players, who only finish the game once and then move on. Invasions and poise are working as intended in the most literal sense, From achieved their design goals perfectly.
>>
>>152502168

To add to this, not just how shit they are, but how late Hyperarmor/poise frames start in their animation. Greatswords and Halberds HA are the only ones that have HA activate at a decent time, and Greatswords are still outranged and outsped by the Carthus unless the Carthus user is aggressive towards them. All ultra weapons however have their HA activate at the halfway point of a swing at best, and with how slow they are on top of that any player with a knowledge of when it actvates can easily interrupt your swing if they're near you and are using a faster weapon before your HA actually activates. It's why the Carthus can both be a master of reactive and aggressive play against slower weapons, and it's not just that Carthus that's good at it, but it's just the best option due to its range, reach, and speed of its 2HR1s.

That's true, but I really hate being a one note character with whips, I only use the roll and WA. It's not even the case of Gotthard's where the roll L1 is great but the other moves are good too, whips never hit with any more but those two or 1hR2 against people not used to the range (most try running around me when it's a wide sweep for some reason)

Recovery frames on ultragreatswords, greathammers and greataxe have so much recovery frames that you can whiff punish single whiffed R1's on reaction even with a halberd, which is impossible with every other weapon class in this game. Add to that then being susceptible to backstabs and inability to pressure anyone who knows how to roll properly and you have a true recipe for uselessness.

that's CCS's fault, not poise's fault. and it would be the same for you if you had poise, so both sides would have to play carefully.

an alternative is they can make poise add breakable hyper armor to attacks on weapons that don't currently have hyper armor, and the poise requirement is different for each class of weapons.

Exactly, people complain about the damage discrepancy for ultras against faster weapons but the real problems I think are the speed, high recovery, stamina costs, and very tight poise frames that are only going to get new/bad players to hit during HA. There's also the absolutely horrible movesets most ultras have but we're talking about the underlying problems in every one of them.

Also speaking of halberds I really wish they brought back the slight whiff animation a missed halberd did in 1. They were too weak to bring it back in 2 but in 3 halberds in general have no incentive to not R1 backpedal on reaction to anyone approaching them, and their insanely good HA and lack of recovery makes it incredibly boring to fight most halberd users.

>Invading in Bloodborne
>Have an absolute blast dealing with ganks

>Invading in DaS3
>Get absolutely destroyed because it's a 4v1 at all times plus enemies attack you because of the cunt seed

And you know what I realized? The problem with Dark Souls 3 invading is not the ganks themselves, but how you need to dish out absurd damage to all of them in one hit, quickly enough AND safely. You need a build for that. And even then, that's not the real problem.

It's those guaranteed two-hit stunlocks everyone gets with any weapon.

>Roll away from a stunlock
>Get caught as you roll because it's a clusterfuck of four dudes attacking you at once, huge hitbox area WILL catch you
>Get hit twice again for massive damage, repeat until you're dead

If fucking POISE worked as it should, armor would be able to protect you from this to some degree, but FromSoft programmers are absolute garbage when it comes to this. Not to mention the loud vocal minority of dexfag shitters that are scared as fuck of Dark Souls 1 poise coming back, because then they'll need to do more than just press R1 mindlessly with their katanas and carthus cock swords.

In Bloodborne you can typically dodge away after getting hit ONCE, so gankers usually can't stunlock you to death, plus your mobility is much greater. Crowd control in BB is absolutely amazing once you master how to move properly. Souls games in general don't have this, so it's always gonna be slower and much harder to deal with ganks.

If poise--even a nerfed DaS1 poise-- came back, it would help invaders in 4v1s so damn much. It's not gonna happen, though. FromSoft can't into programming simple mechanics.

If the patch and DLC can't fix this, I'm staying in Bloodborne until absolutely everyone stops playing it forever.

The only things that DaS 1 style poise brings to the table are less consequences for retarded moves, easier R1 mashing and easier backstab fishing. All of these things are cancer.

>>
>>152501820
Not really.
Storm Curved Sword and Carthus Shotel both have more reach than the Carthus Curved Sword but are much, much worse because of their lower AR. Reach and speed are assets, but what puts the Carthus sword over the edge is the fact that it straight-up out-trades almost anything with comparable range or speed.

Neither of those really have any more reach then Carthus, at most the Storm Curved Sword has slightly more but has only slightly lesser AR and an R1>WA combo on top of that. But none of that matters because the main draw of the Scimitar-type curved swords is how fast the 2HR1 is, it's the fastest attack in the game by far aside from the starting 2HR1 of daggers and can outspeed almost any other attack on reaction if they're up in another players ass and allows them to play a perfect reactive game on anyone who closes in on top of that. Carthus' damage is nice, but if its damage is the only thing that was nerfed people will still either use it because of its incredible reach + bleed or switch to the Falchion or Storm Curved Sword with fights taking 'slightly' longer with all the actual OP things in the weapon class as a whole still in there. The 2HR1 start-up and recovery needs to be slowed down save for certain weapons like the Painting Guardian Sword just a tad and then a lot of the problems of the Carthus just are not as overbearing. Of course they'll probably just nerf the AR by 9 points instead.

You are being literally objectively incorrect. Dark souls 1 poise favoured DEX weapons more than it did in other games. In fact DEX was the way to go in dark souls 1 in general, dex weapons in dark souls 1 dominated, you haven't players against ninjaflipping people with DWGR, poise stacked to 77, Pyromancy and shit like chaos blade, silver knight spear, rapiers for backstabs and other bullshit.

all I want is DaS2 poise. poise in DaS2 was perfect, it just needed some tweaking so rolling katanas weren't insta breaks.

turning poise into hyperarmor was a decent replacement for DaS1 poise.

unlike 3, which just has no poise and just uses it's own hyperarmor system 9which works like garbage) despite having the value there.

And bleed still remains the only strong status in 3. The smaller AR discrepancy between STR and DEX weapons and faster recovery, as well as, for instance, non-instant backstabs would make DEX (or 27/40 quality whatever, they're using naturally scaling dex weapons) still dominate in 3. You forget that in a gank you'd need to poise break 3-4 faggots and if a single one of then decide to outrange with a spear/halberd you'd be getting outtraded. Heck, the only reason invasions in BB aren't broken is because gems exist, but gems themselves were a huge mistake

> you are only talking of the shittiest of meta meme builds.
Not really. The actual meme builds like dmb falchion with 56 poise and WOG and Chaoshander Giant Dad were not meta in any way. Something like this was way more meta - https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/512345

Not really. In Dark souls 3 bleed is more dangerous, because you can bleed in a single combo. In dark souls 1 however you can avoid getting bled simply by rolling through the bleed.

In dark souls 2 ATT had the same problem, but because in DS2 attunement sped up cast speed, added extra AGL and gave extra casts of the same spells it was balanced. By in DS3 they decided to use DS2 ATT slot breakpoints without giving it additional benefits it had in DS2.

>How to fix Ultra Greatswords so that they're actually scary huge swords no one should fuck with

It's a mix between making them viable but also needing you to invest a bit of stats for them. Here's an initial idea. Miyazaki claiming to be a fan of Berserk is bullshit, and that "big sword moves were inspired by Berserk" for DaS3 is also garbage lies.

They are slow, anyone can spam rolls to avoid them, and they are just a big "KILL ME FOR FREE" sign for anyone that follows "the meta", which means you will get killed by some guy using only running pokes from the washing dildo pole. I propose the following:

>hyper armor starts at frame 0, meaning as SOON AS YOU PRESS THE BUTTON you get hyper armor
>The FIRST swing is always going to be incredibly fast. The second swing and all the following hits from R1 "spam" will also be slower. This goes in line with the "you get two guaranteed hits" stunlock bullshit. This means you can't just abuse your first fast attack for free as well, because:
>The first attack will consume way more stamina. I do mean a significant amount.

"BUT THEN EVERYONE WOULD USE THAT, WHY WOULD--"
Shut the fuck up you cunt nigger fuck you.

>Increase all UGS weight, you NEED to level up VIT to carry these fucking things with you.
>Vertical and horizontal attacking UGS will both have the same quality of having a quick first attack
>Movesets should all be different, all UGS should require a different style of play

Example

>You want good damage and moderate speed without having to be forced to level up VIT: use lighter UGS like Zwei, Astora's, etc. You'll have to pick between less stamina consumption and weight at the cost of less damage in general.
>You want to tank and dish out a fuckton of damage in a single two-hit stunlock: Cathedral, Fume, Greatsword, etc-- all the "heavy" UGS will require you to invest in more endurance and VIT. They should all be STR scaling, nothing else makes sense.

Yay, nay? Anything to make these more fun.
