it's too linear every playthrough is identical

>>154006446
It's simply too bland.
If I ask you to list huge flaws in any other games your list will be much bigger than 3, more likely than not, but 3 is just a gigantic pile of small bad aspects that add up to make it less enjoyable.
There's that huge list of complaints, but try to think of how many things can be considered as awful as soul memory, or blood gem grinding, or areas as bad as Izalith.

You could just equip Darkmoon covenant, it does the same thing.

>>154006825
carthus arc is objectively the best buff in the game
it has the longest duration and benefits the most from spell buff (I tested it- my chime had more spell buff than my pyrohand, but carthus arc's damage was still higher than DMB's)

I hate carthus so fucking much

if gargoyles are the casual filter for ds1 what are the filters for ds2 and ds3?

>>154007286
I'm not
I used the crystal chime for DMB and it was the same FTH/INT build. Still, its spell buff was higher than pyrohand's.
I heard something about non-lightning miracles scaling improperly with the crystal chime, so I also tried LB, it dealt exactly the same damage.
I tried Crystal Magic Weapon after that, and the damage was still the same.

>>154007571
>>154007594
>>154007658

shouldn't the casual filter be earlier on in the game than ruin sentinels and smelter though? can't really think of anything tough enough in the early game myself so you're probably right

also who the actual fuck finds sentinels hard? seriously?

reminder that dark souls 3 has the best pvp in the series

>>154007658
Bu the only hard optional ones are low SL Oceiros and parryless Champ, you can't make a boss hard without gimping yourself

>>154007467
Nah, Capra Demon was the true filter

>>154007697
Ruin Sentinels are quite early
You'd really be surprised about how many people are retarded enough to jump into the middle of the arena, aggro all of them, and therefore find them hard

>>154007697
>also who the actual fuck finds sentinels hard? seriously?
The same people who run into Smelter after a jump attack and keep dying to his AoE
Also it's a very early game boss, and a lot of people had no idea how ADP worked, so there were we trying to dodge those bullshit hitbox attack with base ADP.

>>154007571
I had a hard time with Sully in my first time, but then again I was using a great mace. Most people use SS which doesn't gimp your stamina so Sully is a lot less hard.

>>154007767

actually you might be right there since gargs let you get 2 summons to help out but capra gives you none(?)

I actually forgot how difficult ruin sentinels were on my first playthrough.

I spent the entire day or two trying to clear that boss. A lot of my deaths were from the 1st sentinel knocking me or the npc off the ledge and triggering a 2nd sentinel early. Or when forced to fight 2 sentinels and one kills me while I'm looking at the other.

>>154007697
Smelter can be fought fifth the earliest but you need to relearn to dodge. But the sentinels are generally fought third, either last giant>purse user>sents or dickrider>flexile>sents, they're pretty early

I wonder how many people wouldn't have failed Gargoyles if they knew that you could summon Solaire for them

>Summon Solaire

I think this is the main reason smelter shits on some people really hard

>>154007867
Gargoyles are somewhat easier because of that and possible lighting weapon buff

Capra demon had none and most people either lucked out or found out about the stairs trick and just throwed fire bombs, the 2 dogs are the true enemy there

I learned one little trick (sentinels HATE me!). When you kill the first, go stand on the corner of the platform with no adjacent wall. When the second comes up, he completely misses you and you have enough to time to fuck him up before the third comes. Been beating them on my first try ever since, not even using a blunt weapon

Honestly if it weren't for the two dogs he'd be half as hard.

Going through DaS3 for the first time, the filter might as well be the faggot tree that most people ignore that it's optional and you don't need to actually beat him there.

Never tried that. What happens? A fogwall blocks you?

You can by making a jump or summoning shanenigans to open the gates. A fogwall blocks you from entering from that side, similar to Taurus Demon when you try to enter from behind.

Fuck man.

Those who spear spam are worse than sword/dark blade r1 spammers... Seriously spears are nearly impossible to parry and if they are aware nearly impossible to backstab. So they just run around use their range advantage and spam their thrust and it takes no more skill than an r1 spammer. Spears should be parried very easily, please fix that.

What do you expect? That we just parry once in an entire fight and expect it to succeed when it's this damn hard to parry?. lol. Parrying is much more difficult than spamming weapon skills and also has a significant opening to a backstab if you miss it. So stop spamming parries when you kill us as if we did something wrong because we'll parry you in the next fight and spam weapon skills in your grave.

The average player is unaffected by most of what he discusses

It's a halberd, every glaive is a halberd, crescent axe s a halberd, immolation tinder is a halberd, we're talking about what the game calls them faggot

>>154011723
Same weapon class. Halberds.

>>154011765
You want to be that faggot? If we go by that then this I'll be literally semantics hell.
The Halberd is a Poleaxe.
The Lucerne is a Bec-de-Corbin
The Winged Knight Halberd, Gundyr's Halberd and Glaive are Bardiches.
The Red-hilt Halberd is the only actual Halberd in the game.
Then we go to the fact that the longsword is an arming sword, and the bastard sword is a longsword. Then there's the fact that the greatsword wepon class is made of longswords and bastard swords.

This goes on forever. But instead, let's just call them what they are called in the game. In Dark Souls, Glaives are Halberds, the glaive moveset is the halberd moveset.

>>154012102
the Halberd moveset is the halberds moveset. you're dumb. if you want to talk about another moveset, then don't call them halberds when there's a weapon that is called just Halberd and it has a different moveset.

He's not wrong. The game only allows you to use those weapons "competitively", because the only infusion that matters is refined and those weapons are pretty good as refined. That's why there's no variety. He even advocates the use of refined as a good thing because at 40/40 you can use pretty much any weapon in the game, but the poor balancing means you have no reason to.

>>154012624

Removing refined wouldn't change shit in game. People are unable to understand CCS scaling with dex, str or both does not suddently mean either of those builds is best, same faggots bitching would bitch about other stats being broken.
The problem is that there's no longer a super stat like END so there's no reason not to go quality with little tradeoff.
I also would just remove heavy/sharp/refined because it's fucking stupid as it was in DeS

>>154013153
refined is cancer and should never have been introduced
sharp and heavy should be removed only if from actually makes str and dex weapons, because 90% of weapons are quality by default

>>154013143
You don't need more than 20 vid or end for NG
Have fun doing 0 damage though

>>154013153
That's more of a problem with the meta being 120. It allows you to allocate 40/40 and with stats to spare. Endurance is not a problem because your main defensive maneuver costs no stamina and so does most attacks.

>>154013348
The only place quality doesnt dominate is sub-SL40, where Raw Vitgouge/Lorians is king

>>154013153
The best way to fix refined is make so Heavy and Sharp benefit from stupid high stats (like 99), while Refined has diminishing returns. This way a specialized build in str or dex is still better at that than a quality one, but the quality is more versatile in weapon choice.

>>154013348
The meta NEEDS to be 120 otherwise Ultraweapons builds would vanish, becoming inviable because:
-you need 40 end because of retarded stamina consumption
-you need high vit because they weight a ton, if you want to wear anything but rags and dresses
-you need high vig because ultraweapons rely on trading
-you need high str just so the damage almost compensates for being so slow

Possibly Sorcery and Miracles would also become inviable, but that's debatable.

>>154013153
>I also would just remove heavy/sharp/refined because it's fucking stupid as it was in DeS
this
it makes no sense, literally just gives you free damage

>>154013664
I actually think it's a cool system, but the changes are too superficial. There's no trading, one is always objectively better than the other.

I also wish convoluted ore/smith hunting would come back. That was fun and added some mystique to the thing.

DaS2 is self contained because it doesn't really matter in regards to 1 and 3, just another cycle in the chain.

On that note, Bearer of the Curse escaping hollowing is the canon ending and there's also room to argue that Yhorm is the one who took his place

>>154014168
The worse part is the meta needs to be 120 no so those builds become good, it needs to be 120 so those build can actually be barely viable and can net you some wins if you become really good with them.

Meanwhile your everyday refined weapon reaches its damage cap at SL 80 with barely any investment as they weight as much as a feather and require no stat investment to deal high damage, as most of their damage comes from "attack rate", not "attack power".

You really think 570 AR is a lot for a slow ass ultra weapon? 650 is the bare minimum.

Str builds need to be 99(66) str. Anything below 99(66) is trash.

>>154015178
you will soon, friend

>>154007315
It wasn't as bad as their fight in DS2, when I did realize that, indeed, I am going to have to fucking fight EIGHT of them, with three at a time.

Which has worse PvP, DaS3 or 2?
Because DaS3 seems fucking BAD.

>>154015376
The ds2 fight can be 1v1
But only if your not a passive bitchboy

If 2 spawn and you try damage both then more will spawn

Needless to say, these games know how to inspire fear in me

>>154015418
Ds2 was really fucking bad at launch but even then, way more 'big' communitynames have dropped ds3 than they had for da2

>>154015482
Really? Because I just went ham hoping to all fuck to burst them down as quickly as possible so they wouldn't pile up.
Worked poorly in NG, maybe because I took them on too early, what with them being an optional boss and all.

>>154015418
Both are shit.
Play DaS1 pvp

You're forgetting that nobody will have 40/40 tier damage on sl80, or the stamina required to spam r1 and roll-catch without getting punished

>DaS1 pvp
>backstab fishing: the game
No thanks, thats the worst PvP in the series

>>154015723
Be less shit if you get BSed its your fault.

>>154015778
Ikr hehe das1 pvp is like a game of chess and backstab is jus checkmate

>>154015817
I don't read moon, what is Ornstein saying

>>154014217
You monster. How many times have you shitposted?
>>154014349
There's a bunch of quality weapons, all playing differently. Fun doesn't lie in stat distribution but in playstyle. Try halberds, ss, gs and ugs and see what you like. Also, quality isn't nearly as strong as in ds3, in case you just want big damages

>>154015889
He's saying he understands

>>154015886
As stated before if you know how to defend against backstabs (which is easy as shit) its not an issue. Be a lil less shit junior.

Or alternately you can return to the Dark Souls 2/3 no-poise R1 fiesta and hold hands in a hugbox commune.

>>154016000
Someone post that webm of a giantmom hexer staying in the corner to avoid backstabs while poising through everything
I'm sure you are one of those

>>154015418
2 by far.
Reminder that wast majority of problems with invading were much worse in 2 than in 3.
And it had no dried finger runs.

>>154016000
>Dark Souls 1 PvP is soooo hardcore!!!
It's shit mate.

>>154014556
Does the ring of the living remove auras like untrue dark? I want to make an extremely faithful guts build and don't want my stumpy dragonslayer to taste blueberry

Which weapon class has the most Hyper Armor between Halberds and Glaives?

>>154016169
>inb4 we get another pvp war
All souls games have things that make their PvP shit

>>154016169
It's the least shit out of all of them, I mean you can try to defend 2 (lol) and 3 and make it even more hilarious.

Safety, are you in here?

>>154014057
Not to mention, SL80 can fit Prisoner's Chain with little to no downside.

>>154016201
Yes

>>154016220
The Glaives in the Halberd-class
