Speaking of, how would /dsg/ properly nerf Straight/Curved Swords without making them useless? I like the idea in previous threads of separating Straight Sword swing speeds between Heavy/Short sword R1 speeds to actually give reasons to use things like the Short Sword but more ideas like that are fun to discuss.

That's exactly what should have been done from the start. The shorter swords like Broadsword and Painting Guardian be untouched speed-wise, maybe an AR nerf for some. The Longswords need a straight speed nerf.

>>154306986
That's basically what I'd do.
Adjust their hitbox to properly match up to their model instead of the shit we have now
Slow down the 1HR1s of all straightswords, but by different amounts.

Barbed Sword, Shortsword, Cleric's Candlestick and Lothric's Holy Sword would get the slightly faster R1s.
The rest would get the slower R1s
Also I'd lower the damage of Gotthard's rolling L1 significantly but leave them otherwise unchanged

As for Curved Swords, I'd slow down the 2HR1s of all the falchion-type CS (Falchion, storm, carthus shotel, carthus sword). The first R1 would start up notably slower and the second R1 would have significantly more recovery. The Carthus Sword specifically would have a rather significant slow down, larger than the rest, but would otherwise be totally unchanged. I'm talking like katana R1 speed for most falchions and 1H greatsword speed for the carthus.
The scimitar-type curved swords would be untouched. They're fine as they are with their low AR compensating for their speed. Maybe the pontiff knight sword could get a slight stamina cost increase since it has so much reach

I'd also increase the startup and recovery of the katana running attack considerably. The washingpole specifically would startup slower and have more recovery than the rest.

And where glaives are considered, I'd go as far as to remove the hyperarmor entirely from their 2HR1s but that would probably make crutchshitters cry so maybe just narrowing the HA window and increasing the recovery of the 1st R1 so you cant' stagger it so goddamn quickly. If they were allowed to retain HA, I would change the modifier from 1.5 to 0.5

Of course, all of this would go alongside some significant buffs to the terrible weaponclasses but that'd be too much to list in a single post

What do they mean by Human Effigies in DaS2 as opposed to regular Humanity in DaS? Also what happened to all the firekeepers?
>>
>>154307273
Carthus Curved Sword, only 2h though.
It's overpowered and fun.
>>
>>154307940
>Also I'd lower the damage of Gotthard's rolling L1 significantly but leave them otherwise unchanged

Just make it have the same hitbox and tracking as the Drang Twinspears Rolling L1, for some reason despite being the exact same attack the Twinspears version has noticeably less phantom range and tracking.
>>
>>154307967
A very, very long time has passed since DaS1. So long that history doesn't even clearly record the events of that time. Firekeepers are largely a lost practice and the retired ones you meet in the beginning are presumably in some sort of timeless limbo as part of their connection to the flame itself. The Firekeeper that tends to Majula is artificially created - rediscovery of the practice by a scholar rather than a continuation of the practice's heritage

Effigies are basically just humanities. Their name is different and they're looked upon differently simply because so much of the knowledge from the time of Lordran has been lost to history. Also because of the nature of the being that currently controls most of Drangleic, free-radical humanity such that was common in DaS1 is no longer really around. The wrapping around effigies are probably part of what keeps them separate from the pseudo-abyss that's consumed the kingdom and allows you to appropriate them for your own use.

I can't fucking decide between farron sword and wolf night sword. Anyone have strong opinions on these two?
>>
>>154308097
The hitbox problem is part of the hitbox issue that affects all straightswords. But, even with that fixed there's no reason that a straightsword rolling attack should ever trade for like 800 damage. The idea of them having access to a fast, long reach poke out of a roll isn't bad in and of itself, but it should not be so strong that it can functionally be your entire damage output, or that you can out-trade literally everything by just spamming it over and over.

>>154308682
Both do 20% bonus damage to abyss enemies
Wolf Knight GS is the longest greatsword and the 2nd highest AR (behind the BKS) but it has bad R2s with no hyperarmor. The WAR1 is useless but the WAR2 is actually quite useful for pve. It's faster than a charged R2 and does about as much damage but has a tonne of reach from the jump, will interrupt most enemies and will pancake on the hit. Good for locking down faggot enemies like pontiff knights and hitting weakpoints on big enemies like the pontiff dogs.
Farron GS is the lowest AR UGS, only reaching up to 500AR at 40/40 (lower than most greatswords). The unique L1s are really useful and quite strong; they lower your hitbox close to the ground and allow you to low-profile under a lot of boss attacks. However, their low damage and high stamina cost can make it a pain in the ass to use against some enemies and they're bad for DPS.

>>154309383
Let's be honest, in DaS3 it would just have a completely generic greatsword moveset with Stance WA. They wouldn't even bother giving it a unique 2H moveset, it would just be a claymore with lower AR and D/C scaling
>>
>>154309383
I also want Drakeblood to have the DaS2 moveset back. It did poke/slash and slash/poke on the R2s.
>>
>>154307448

>inb4 quality with d/d int+faith scaling

This is infuriating.
The Anor Londo steps are a perfect farming spot. 5000 souls from the two knights, plenty of titanite, summons for Aldritch, ears if I decide to hate myself, even the occasional invasion.
Except this particular steps make my computer crash. Like completely crash; black screen, stutter noises, turns off. Never had that happen before, compy runs everything perfectly fine, compy runs everything else in this game perfectly fine, but here? Nope, dad, maybe 40-60% of the time.

>>
>>154309702
It looked UGS-sized to me.
It'll probably have no int/fth scaling at all and just a 12 req of each. It'll be pure physical aside from the WA, which will add a flat 80 dark damage for 40 seconds. Scaling will be C/B and it won't be infusable.
>>
>>154306303
I feel like if that sword made it into the game it wouldve made more sense than the Greatsword we have now while still being pretty thematic to Tarkus. Plus, by the looks of it, it couldve been a strike weapon using a sword moveset. PERFECT for killing the Iron Golem.

S at +5, yes, but scaling doesn't mean much in DaS2. You can have an A scaling as good as S scaling, so it's easier to look at a table with the correct values.

Not really, it has the lowest stamina consumption of all greatswords and the split damage was alright against shields. Oh, and 130 counter damage.

It's pretty rare for something at +10 to have D/D
Most end up at least C/X and the few that have shitty scaling in one stat end up with B or higher in another. Refined only tends to be super beneficial for weapons with a really big gulf between str and dex scaling. For most stuff that's close in scaling it only increases total AR by a few points at 40/40

People seem to forget that physical defence is a flat damage reduction. So the 50 or so extra damage meant pre dlc 150 damage instead of 100 with fast weapons against full havels. Even more so if you hardcapped like intended.
Then of course they fucked it up.

They should've incorporated the good aspects of those flaws and glitches into new features.

Like, make a stunlock breaking mechanic that requires precise timing (like toggle escape, but balanced). Or make reverse rolls or ravioli step an intended mechanic that's slightly easier to perform and with a smoother animation.

Combos in fighting games were originally a glitch, but the developers realized that they were popular and fun enough that they left them in and focused on balancing them instead of just removing them.

As a general rule of thumb, mixing drugs is never a good idea unless your doctor explicitly tells you to. Drug incompatibilities are an intricate web of chemical relationships well beyond the pedigree of a layman and the consequences of mixing the wrong drugs can be highly unpleasant and likely to result in severe poisoning, overdose-like effects, heart attacks and complete renal system failure.

You're better off just dealing with the pain instead of being a blubbering vagina that needs to pop a dozen T3s to make it through the day and ends up in a bodybag because you needed a bigger fix of your happy-happy crutchpills.

What do you guys define as good bosses? Because I found Looking Glass Knight and Fume Knight to be super easy. I think I beat Looking Glass Knight on my first or second go, so I barely remember his mechanics. Also Fume Knight had only a couple of moves in his set that were very predictable. I'm especially disappointed because the Fume Sword fucking sucks

Alternatively, I really enjoyed the 2 Shulva Sanctum City bosses. Elana had simple moves that were well telegraphed and easy to dodge, but it became challenging when she summoned things to chase you down. I spent a decent amount of time looking away from her and using sound cues to predict which way to roll. Sinh was a cool dragon fight.

The Ivory King fight was cool too, it was super hard because the Loyce Knight AI was retarded, but I ended up getting 18 levels once I beat the boss. But once you beat the charred Loyce Knights, the actual Ivory King fight was fun, his move set cool. The setting was cool too, a nice contrast to the ice and snow from Frozen Eleum Loyce. It was my favourite zone in the game

Do you mean the Watchdogs or Aldtitch Faithful? Either way I agree.

Or do I?
At least in DS1 the Forest Protectors stopped killing you for the duration you were in the covenant and it felt like a proper covenant with a sacred purpose (and so did DS1 Sunbros too).

In DS3 you watch over the Abyss Watchers but aren't even penalized for killing the Abyss Watchers in your world and the Old Wolf of Farron doesn't interact with you in any way,and neither does old McDonald's.

DaS2 had the shittiest version of the Forest Covenant because the area was too small, and it felt kinda stupid as a whole. If the bellbongers in DS2 invaded in the whole of Lost Bastille, it would be great, but as such, the bellbongers are just bad. The dwarf is pretty funny though.

25 poise damage, 120 counter and best range in class combined with running thrust attack dissapointed you? A dex scaling dissapointed you?

>you mean like every real invasion?
Every real invasion doesn't have the host getting instantly stuck in a water slowing him down, ng+7 petrifying rats and mammoth guardians aggroing at him instantly and another player spamming lighting bolts from above which coupled with water aoes and inability to even dodge shit normally means you will be fucking dead in less than 5 seconds
So yes, it was incredibly, painfully unfair up to a point those areas became fucking extinct because nobody wanted to go through that shitshow.
>defending belltower level design
Holy fucking shit nigger, one of them is literally 3 empty platforms, another is a small open area you can easily cross before anyone spawns, they are utter goddamn garbage.

Funny is how you can camouflage versus deacons but if you're truly on their side it doesn't have any effect.
Actually, 2 and 3 really made me sad in how little importance covenants had lore wise. You can kill Aldrich, Yorshka and NK, beat bell areas, freely talk to BoB/Sentinels leaders as the other member and at best you get some dialogue.
Outside of the mandatory Nito kill it was much better

>what do you guys define as good bosses?
I generally consider the fights as not only as fights,but their setup, the impact of the fight and how it feels as a whole. The fight with Penetrator for example isn't in itself so involving, but the setup of going through 1-3 sets up an awesome buildup for the boss. With Artorias, you've been hype pretty much for the entire game for that fight and heard the legends about the legendary Knight Artorias and finally meet the legend in flesh. Also note that both Penetrator and Artorias kill a random mob before the fight starts, to communicate their power.

Artorias is a good,clean fight on a very defined arena, he has clearly telegraphed moves, a second phase and he hits hard but he's still fair. He's very mobile in a game where a lot of the bosses aren't very mobile. Champ is the same, in that he exhibits the same signs as Artorias,his arena both looks cool and it's a no-bullshit straight fight. Champ and arty aren't terribly hard but punish for bad play and look cool. Fighting against both Arty and Champ makes me feel like an anime.

With Looking Glass Knight I like the buildup to his fight,his gimmick in a game with badly designed multi bosses and the visuals of the arena.

Almost certainly, but I suspect that for the most part it will be the sort of thing where 1 item is a quality weapon and the other is a spell or ring or something. I think the Abyss Watcher and Demon are the only boss souls in DaS3 where both items made for the same essential build and they'll probably be even more diligent about that in the DLC. At least 1 DLC boss will probably have 3 things like NK did.

As far as I know, save backups won't trigger invalid data. In fact, the BAMCO community manager went on record suggesting that people who received invalid data could remove the message by loading a backup save made before they did whatever it was that triggered the message.

Savescumming is how people generate 699 siegbrau and blooming green blossoms to tryhard at pontiff's with.

Pretty much. Tourney is going to be good, rules were crated before discord chat devolved into a shitpost memeland, so it is good. Rules are mostly done right, IMO. I, Scor and Soulless had actually came up to similar conclusions. Rendal created a fucking retarded list which banned Greatswords, didn't ban plow and done a lot of other retarded shit.

Even From and NioH have yet to make movesets matter in PvE, you can always use stuff to be flashy, but properly timed basic slashes are the best way to win both. Just doing r1r1r1r1 or r1l1l1l1 or the best weapon combo for your weapon(I personally used the spear so if I ever felt like mindless winning I'd just spam the dash weak attack move).
BB's PvP wasn't much better because there were many weapons with far too many useless moves, sure, you had stuff like Saif which could use a ton of great moves, but not everyone was so lucky. Here's hoping NioH's PvP is good (the AI controlled players surely aren't)

nioh awards you for doing combos really well, the fuck you're talking about
basic stuff mostly needs for ki breaks, once ki is broken it's cuhrayzee town
movesets matter in BB as well given that some weapon modes might deal damage type most suited for beating the enemy, most charged r2s are insanely good and wast majority of special attacks are useful as well, weapons like whirligig barely have any unused moves in their entire moveset

You can outlast limited casts unable to deal enough stamina damage that you can just flee from.
You can't turtle forever from physical attacks, at least not without coupling it with a weapon, while those shields simply render magic obsolete coupled with most weapons.

There's multiple mechanics designed to counter 100% physical block like guard breaks.
There's no mechanics designed to counter 100% magic block unless you're on omnicaster, and even then primitive and obvious casting tells will just allow your opponent to dodge instead of trying to block a different element. And there's also magical parrying on top of it.

DS3 did absolutely right by getting rid of 100% elemental shields. Even the top tier anti-elemental shields fall prey to heavy chip damage to a point it's easier to dodge spell than to tank it.

You know why DS2 had soul memory and no red eye orbs?
Because new characters are essentially helpless, several don't even have complete starting armor sets, and no one can actually roll because of low starting agility.
Without SM and orb farming, waves of twink characters would have obliterated players in FoFG and Heide's, breaking the game into a Pontiff-style clusterfuck.

Waves of twink characters already could if they used CE to get infinite cracked reds, the lack of a full Red Eye Orb only legit players who wanted to invade across all Soul Levels. It should've been a reward for beating Darklurker or something in NG+. Meanwhile SM's band-aid fix for twinking was obliterated with the introduction of the Agape Ring while still leaving all the actual problems of SM.

p.s. You didn't answer shit, that's just basic bitch nonsense.

>>154328341
Unlike DS2 where every "build" could use havel's shield, in DS3 it requires substantial stat investment and equip load. Aside from rare as shit estoc turtles i've yet to see anyone rocking one, and even then 30-40 chip damage is still better than any other build can do against that shield.

Two mistakes both independent of eachother combined into a big fuck up non-argument.

Dark blade needs to be fixed though, it sucks ass compared to the other buffs let alone buffs in general to resins. Doesn't stop deep/lightning/dark infusion.

DS2 actually had builds on low SM, SL150. If you played there, there was build variety.
>>
>>154328643
>Unlike DS2 where every "build" could use havel's shield
Wrong, at 150 you hardly had stats to put into that, and if you did, you didn't have enough resists to make up for it.
>inb4 unlimited levels and other bullshit you dastards spew
Good players stopped at 150, you only fought retards after that cap.

>Substantial stat investment and equipload
You mean the 40 str that every single build has and the fact that you can pack it on every single build as long as you have 15 vit?

I am mostly talking about arena and bridge. All good players like Lyrical, Scorbrand and shit stopped at SL150. And with inclusion of arena SL matchmaking, there was a reason to stop at SL150. If you want to fully experience PvE every time you want to make a build, go play ds1 or ds3, where getting to SL120 requires either farming or NG+, because naturally you end the game at sl100 at most. SL200 and high SM was not good for PvP, in fact you could make some stupid things at sl200, like poise, greatshield, uchigatana builds with buffs, dark nuffedbandit axe poise builds, Sl200 is stupid.
>>154329028

Havel turtle were even more op at sl200 and higher, because you could combine it with poise and high DEX, END and VIG. SL200 was stupid. This is why nobody good played ds2 on SL200, because that it is a stupid SL to play in. And ds2 was never a competetive game, nobody good treated it as such.

Estoc is a STR weapon in DS2. You don't need anything for turtling save for STR, END and VIG and at 150 you can get more end on a turtle than any other build except for elemental vitgouges can, which means they can't deplete your stamina ever.

Silence has fallen in the arena, the gates bar my path. My mind is steeled in meditation, preparing myself for what is to come. A rumbling breaks the serenity, distractions pierce through my mental fortress and seep their way into weakening my resolve. My opponent has been summoned. I brush aside these minor disturbances within myself. My composure surges back, and with it a scarlet aura...proof of my prowess. The music begins to play...


As I enchant my Shadow-imbued Washing Pole with resonant weapon, I utter a silent prayer to myself:

"This game is perfect; It is beyond reproach. So shall my blade also be perfect; I offer my life to sharpen its edge."

I finish the ritual with a flick of my wrist. The blade glistens a raven indigo in its new magic coating. The taboo of hexes is of no concern to me, nor does the pittance of my own sanity spent to maintain my blade weigh on my conscience. I exist rooted within this moment, and I gladly pay with what will be, to ensure what is. Again, I whisper my mantra: "This game is perfect; It is above reproach." The gates relinquish themselves...


Two strokes...I had hoped for one.

One to cleave his drangleic shield +0 in half, the other to rend his soul in sacrifice. I drop to one knee and emit a howl over my quarry, arms outstretched to commit his spirit to the beyond. The light glistens off the polished stone of my Havels armor, as I bask in the blood of my fresh kill. As my vision fades, I send to him a last guidance for his soul, so that he may not become lost in his journey to the other side:

"LMAO Wrekt git gud queerbasket"

I hope that one day I shall find my equal, and that I may join those fallen in the great beyond.

I then masturbate furiously with used panties stolen from my sister, and pray once more to the statues of the arena.

"Duelist Found!"

This game is perfect.

Mediocre Greataxe outclassed by almost every other one save the Demon's Greataxe with a parryable weapon art as the ultimate insult.

>Dragonslayer Swordspear

Good quality weapon with best moveset in the game.

>Twin Prince's Greatsword

Great for the WA but generic bastard sword moveset otherwise.

>Moonlight Greatsword

Strictly inferior to other good greatswords still even after the buffs.

>Hollowslayer

It's amazing.

>Profaned Greatsword

Best UGS for what it's worth and my weaponfu

>Greatsword of Judgement

Shameful Bastard Sword R2s but damn if the damage ain't fine when buffed.

>Chaos Bed Vestiges

Not a weapon.

The same.

>Wolnir's Holy Sword

Weapon with useless Bastard Sword R2s and WA that is still outpaced by half the Greatswords in this game

60-80 to try and """twink""" as many nubs as possible.

I fucking know that that level is hardly twink SL but that's the level I'd expect someone relatively new/casul who is only playing the game again to go through the DLC would be

There need to be some weapons some weapons for people less skilled at the game. Believe it or not, the game's ideology is overcoming adversity, not "git gud xD". My point is, use what you like to use.

>antitwink
The hatchet I understand, due to the lack of team attack in ganks, unparriable hyperarmor shockwaves are the bane of invaders. Not sure how the knife helps, or at least, anymore than a good straightsword. Is it just stylistic? Also, why the hatchet in the left? Is that just for the photo? I guess it makes sense since you shouldn't use the one handed move set too much anyway since it's sight parriable.

This is the big improvement they need to make to introduce a new rat covenant, make it a required area. I suppose putting it in the DLC would be alright, but next Soulsborne game I expect a proper trap fuckery area.

Left hand greataxe hyper armour

butcher knife has great range and outspaces straightsword shitters, does good damage with the low level str amount, sharpen weapon art helps loads in the forest because you can top up on health killing the little crabs and whiffing hits on players and not use so much estus

Also for style

The butcher knife R2's are great to roll catch alot of people dodging away after being hit twice by the left hand machete

build if anyone's interested

This is true, but if someone is metafagging and being a dick I will just refuse to summon them

Really, hornet rings are the only thing I really have an actual problem with, because revolve their entire strategy around an instant I-win button, as it is stale, boring and rewards passive gameplay.

>good damage with the low level str amount

Oh right, investment wise that makes sense not that I consider it. Same goes for crabs.

>Left hand greataxe hyper armour
I'd understand for a rollcatch, but unless I'm mistaken those are still slow and parriable onehanded swings, hyperarmor or not.

You could probably go higher. I used to invade with an SL40 character there.

It's kinda hard to have a 40/40 on a knight and have good endurance at 120 though


>>154339936
wrong
>>
>>154339345
The difference between +4 and +5 for boss weapons is the same as +8 to +10 for normal ones. It's pretty significant, especially because there's a hidden negative modifier on scaling below slab-level. The jump from that one upgrade level is quite substantial.

152 stamina is the absolute optimum amount for stat investment and weapon vareity

>that faggot who attacks the FC host

if you're that guy, why do you do it? Covenant rewards aren't that good unless you're looking to respec, which I get. Anyone not looking to respec though, WHY? You put down your sign to fucking duel, why not actually not be a faggot and participate instead of attacking the host and looking like a huge douche AND getting the entire rest of the club to take you down just to keep fighting.

Like, why fucking bother?
