There's no point to multiphased boss fights other than to be tedious. The only moment where it's ok is if both phases are similar but with some differences (Fume Knight, Manus) or if you can choose how the next phase will be like (O&S). What's the point of phase 1 of Twin Princes if phase 2 is just going to be the same, but harder? Why not start already at the hard part instead of wasting my time with the easy shit? And if you put too many phases or too many different movesets, what happens is either each phase is going to have too low hp or the entire fight is going to have too much hp.

Remove the NPC in the Gravetenders fight, give the greatwolf more hp and a more complex and different moveset than the ones you fought before. Either make Blackflame Friede phase 1 and remove phase 3 or make phase 2 and phase 3 different bosses while expanding on Ariandel's moveset, removing phase 1 entirely. Everyone's happy now.

Listen only to the sound of my voice. Let your mind relax. Let your thoughts drift. Let the bad memories fade. Let peace be upon you. Surrender yourself to your dreams. Let them wash over you like the gentle waves of the bluest ocean. Let them envelop you. Comfort you.

Imagine somewhere calm. Imagine somewhere safe. Imagine yourself in a frozen forest. You're standing in a clearing. Trees around you so tall, they touch the sky. Pure white snowflakes fall all around. You can feel them melt on your skin. You are not cold. It cannot overcome the warmth of your beating heart. Can you hear it? You only have to listen.

You hear it slowing? You're slowing it. You are in control. Calm. At peace

You know what really strange in DLC?
It's high end content. Devlopers recommend "70-80SL". But all mobs give you so little souls. It's nothing like Archives or Archdragon Peak. All of them drops Titanite Shards but no one drops Titanite Chunks. There is literally around 1-2 Titanite Chunks in DLC. Mobs in DLC pretty clearly designed for +6 weapons. But in same time Friede bossfight is hell for +6 weapons, so she's designed for +10 weapon. More important DLC give us 3 Titanite Slabs. Just what the fuck?

Another way you can tell where she's at is to throw knives or any physical projectile on her as she's about to go invisible so you can see the floating knife and get a good idea of where she is and what she's about to do.

It relies a bit more on strategy I'd say. There are a bunch of passages you can take around the harder encounters or you can use the guys transporting the barrels to your advantage to kill the guys. If you really don't feel like diverging a bit from your regular playstyle, it's gonna fuck you up. Personally, I love it. Pretty good vertical level design too and tons of secrets.

>guardframes on the VH start instantly, the moment you press the button

Who OK'd this
40END VH is literally unbeatable
You just backpedal and press R1 the moment your opponent does anything. Nothing can guardbreak you in one hit, nothing can out-trade you and you get to reset back to neutral for free every successful trade. There's no timing, no prediction involved. You see your opponent attack, you reflexively press R1

I suppose it's time to make a dark claymore pyro build and join the meta.

Kalameet is probably some kind of humanity/dark soul born/created dragon different to the everlasting ones

There is nothing evil about Kalameet. He was infected by the Abyss, much like the people of Oolacile. The name Kalameet was given to him by the gods who hated Dragons.

No, I'm saying Kalameet is an abyss dragon. That he must've come from the abyss. He's found in the same place as the abyss, is surrounded by it, and his black fire mirrors that of the abyss pyro.

Also why the fuck do you capitalising "Abyssal Dragon". I didn't say that's what Kalameet's name is. I know what his name is. It's Kalameet.

But Kalameet is clearly an abyss born dragon that came with whatever happened when Manus awokened.

Kalameet is talked about by Hawkeye gough as though he's encountered it before and he says anor londo can't even stand against it. The way he talks it's much more like he's seen it before in his dragon hunting of the past, not like it's some new thing that just got birthed out of nothing.

>>
>>158420557
>this game has the worst item placement and distribution of all
That's the problem when you make the areas too big. If you remember, the DaS1 areas were pretty short between each bosses, what made the game feel big was the interconnectivity of all (or big emptiness like Lost Izalith), so it was easier for them to place items and make them feel important. DaS2 is a big fucking game compared to DaS1, but it has way more consumables and items. In DaS3, there are less areas, but each of them are bigger, but at the same time, there are less consumables and items than DaS2 so they reuse a lot of the same things.

Black Ops 3's story was pretty far out balls to the wall.

It actually touched on the philosophical elements of what defines a living being, sentience, awareness and what happens when we let technology run rampant in our lives.

I actually felt kinda sorry for the antagonist Corvus, after I learnt the truth of how and why he was created

Oh yeah and if you wanted to learn more about the world in BO3 you actually had to collect items and read their descriptions. And the ending is left vague and open to interpretation just like Dark Souls

the whole game was actually a dream created by your dying mind as you died during surgery whilst getting your augmentations installed. You were actually reliving Captain Taylors memories, with you as the protagonist and him as the bad guy

That happened way too fucking much.
What the hell is the point of that ambush behind the Corona room? I walked into it assumed there was loot behind the well but it's just some random fucking enemies guarding nothing.

>>158420752
yes, he's an ancient (see: old) dragon, wow anon

But there's a very clear distinct difference between him and the others not only by looks and everything, but the place you find him is INCREDIBLY Abyss themed.

The black dragon with one fucking eye surrounding by black evil goo and a rampaging abyss that corrupts everything has nothing to do with any of that.

The black dragon just is chilling and happens to be there, that's all.

depends on your build, but usually around 70

highly upgraded weapons and estus are a must, though
>>
>>158421318
It focused more on individual rooms and had an interesting approach to its overall level design, where "you can technically fight the boss, but if you go through this level, it will be way easier". AoA's overall level design is to make everything large and open, which has never really been the Souls games' strength.
>>
>>158421648
That's not a great argument, since that's a different type of red eyes.

But there are shit-loads of other people who have the same type of eyes, like King of the Storm, the Ghru, the Ancient Dragon in Dark Souls 2 and the Primordial Serpents. So it's not unique to Kalameet, it's just a generic draconic thing.

Why would they even bother putting the painting guardian set and weapons in the main game in an area totally unrelated to the DLC?

Painting guardian set was ugly and unpopular even in DaS1 and the weapon has always been useless trash outside of those couple of months in 2 where it was a broken parrying tool.

It's actually quite good.
Frostbite is a pain in the ass because it increases your incoming damage and lasts forever. I'm not sure if the stamina regen is noticable or a placebo, but I don't want to be frostbitten.

The spell makes a massive thick line and lingers for a while. It's like a cloud spell except it covers a much larger area and builds much, much faster. It also ignores iframes

I thought a mage using it in the arena and if he cast it in my direction, my buildup would be at half before I managed to get out of the way. He stood in it so that I could attack him without diving into the cloud and that basically meant I either had to tank frostbite to pressure him or let him cast for free.

I expect casters to adopt this as a cover spell much in the same way people used scraps of life in 2.

To be honest, using Vilhelm as a wall for lowlevel players is pretty genius.
The first titanite chunk is behind him, as well.
But everything int he DLC leading up to him is doable on a lowlevel character so long as you play smart and avoid the strong mobs. You can sneak around to loot the place without dealing with endgame mobs all the way up to that bastard.

it isn't

So I've run through the DLC but there's two areas I can't access. First one is this lever. What the fuck does it do? It's in the room above where you fight Vilhelm. Just says contraption does not move. There's an elevator of some kind next to it.
Also what happened to the woman standing on top of the table? Was she Freide or the child? I honestly don't remember.

Phase 2 has a much larger HP pool but Ariandel takes more damage and has huge openings. Separate them and then go for him and you'll blow up that HP bar quickly.

It's a very Bloodborne-style boss. The HP pool is deceptive because one of the bosses is a sandbag.

she makes a huge leap forward when she goes invisible, you can see the cloud of snow when she launches off the ground. so just turn 180 from where she was, and sprint in that direction, you should be reasonable close to her, then

alternatively, nail her with a throwing knife as she goes invisible, and it will be floating in midair

The wolf itself should've appeared all along the DLC, but be unkillable until the boss fight. It should've fled each time.

They could've made it have much more impact.

Snap freeze is an area denial spell.
If someone stands in it, they get frostbite in literal seconds. But nobody's going to stand in it.

It's not a projectile you can drop on somebody and hope to get some buildup before they roll away. If people get any buildup from snap freeze, they'll likely get all of it because the spell won't touch you unless you disrespect its area control.

In other words, it exists to zone melee characters off of casters. The buff won't help it at all. The buff won't help anything at all. The buff is just bad.

I wish the DLC was longer, at least as long as the old hunters. But eh, I did it on my platinum character, I got the slave knight set and put it on right away, its my new favorite set, but as far as the weapons go I found nothing to replace my Wolnir's (Obsidian was slightly more damage but I still prefer Wolnir's) and the miracles left me unimpressed.

Basically paid $15 for an armor set. But meh, I had fun so its fine.

I really hope the second DLC is longer, and PVE focused since they added the arena with this one.

Next one is basically going to be lava/fire themed, right?

The crow dudes dragging their poo are a cut design from the main game.
Their concept art, along with a tonne of main game concept art, was released as a promotion back about half a year before DaS3's release, right after the trailer that used the main menu theme.

In other words, the concept for the entire corvian settlement (and likely the entire DLC) was planned alongside the main game and cut to be released later as DLC.

Gael serves the painter, and she was being kept locked up by Vilhelm.

The Painted World needs fire to be burn away the rot, and Elfreide/Ariendel exist to stop this - essentially because fire inspires the painter to paint a new world that will presumably become the new home for the denizens of the current painted world.

No, the denizens of the current world are done for. They burn with the painting.

But their sacrifice creates a new home for those that come after them. That's why it's important, and that's why the NPC contrasts their decision with the "fools on the outside [world]" who would sooner maintain their stagnant age and rot in it than let death and renewal run their course.

If aIl faced one of you shitters that L I T E R A L L Y needed to be level 838 to have a snowball's chance of ever winning in pvp, I would just spite kite your buffs and spam acid surge.

Eventually either your buffs ran dry or your rings did, and without the buffs to protect your fragile have's ego, spells like chaos storm would still do ~700 damage.

The tragedy is that max level characters can't level up any more when their stats aren't enough to win.

The DLC is at least half the size of The Old Hunters and easily larger than AotA, and has way more variance in environments in small doses instead of spinning one set of assets out over an entire area.

Not sure what people are really getting at by saying it's small, is it because the level is literally connected together and not broken up by multiple bosses? That's not really fair, you're just discouraging the nice overall level design which it has.

I suppose it's still overpriced in comparison, and slightly weird they weren't willing to fit a third proper boss battle in.

"Something" happened to their forest that not only destroyed the entire forest and drove them from their home, but also killed their deity.

They wandered, nomadic, for a long time and eventually entered the painting. The painting's purpose is to serve as a home for those who have none.

What destroyed their home and killed their god isn't explained, but the hints (left no bodies but victim's equipment remained) implies that there's more to the story. Possibly part of the DLC2 sequel hook, or otherwise another dangling plot point that will never, ever be expanded on or resolved, like countless others.

those small doses are 30-40% of the entire area a piece, and let's be honest here for once, there's only two parts of the entire map where you aren't in a plain snowy field, and that's the Corvian village and the room with the flies in it, and the latter is a fucking room, if rooms that stand out now qualify as areas DS2 had more creative environments than any game ever made

TOH and AotA didn't have a season pass with months and months between releases.

>and has way more variance in environments in small doses instead of spinning one set of assets out over an entire area.
I disagree. You go from snow to ice(whoa so varied) and spend an incredibly small amount of time underground.

The reason people are saying its small is becase it is small. Its not complicated. From start to finish there is only one path to follow and any detours end in dead ends not far off the main path.

I didn't dislike the DLC, but it was short, there was not much hidden content and what there was was not hidden well so replayability is low, and there were only 2 bosses with only one of the two providing a soul to give you incentive to run through it again.

If the second DLC is more of the same, and the end of the season pass I'd say I would be disappointed with my purchase.

Do you know ANYTHING about content creation?

I'm not saying its not cut content, I don't know so I can't make claim one way or the other.

But DLC is always conceptualized well before a game is released, artists are the first to finish their work, so while the rest of the team is working on finishing the game, they create resources and concepts for additional content so they can keep their job, that's why frequently you'll see DLC concept art released alongside promo materials and vanilla concept art, its not an instand and clear-cut sign content has been cut, its just a standard part of content creation pipeline.

It can truecombo R1s while 2H
DSGA, Yhorm's and the Great Machete can't.
Earth Seeker is the longest Greataxe that can. Its actual reach is about the same as the DSGA, too.

Note that at 40str and 15fth, it deals less damage per R1 while 2H than a 1H Yhorm's would. So basically, the only reason to use it is if you have a build that actually invests in faith to use miracles and also has strength to spare.
Its actual STR requirements are really low, so it's ideal as a povertyaxe on a hybrid build.

God this is so fucking refreshing. This is how I always imagined invasions SHOULD be: host and his phantoms trying to progress through the level, me and the monsters try to stop them, me being like a super monster. Having a 1v4 but still being able to use the level to my advantage, especially the catacombs where there are so many subtleties you can use to your advantage (I've killed at least 3 people today alone with that fucking skele-boulder).

Part of me wonders at what point everything becomes giant seed cancer but I'm happy to just keep invading the catacombs in all honesty.

Ariandel is some guy that restored the painting, there's not a single important thing about him

Friede is not his daughter, she's Elfriede, who left Londor and took over the painting, pissing off the Corvians even though her outfit says she wanted to protect the people of the painting

>people think TOH was big

Holy shit this is delusional. The first part, the Nightmare was half a reskin of a previous area, and half a straight line with a few little side crevices to the boss.

The Research Hall was fairly "sizeable" yes, but literally only because you had to check an entire hallway of tiny rooms before you found the one that let you go upwards.

Fishing Hamlet was atmospheric and cool, but only slightly larger than the Corvian Settlement, and much smaller than the Corvian Settlement and the Farron Follower clusterfuck afterwards

TOH was good solely because it crammed in a million bosses, two of which were shit, one of which was a joke, and the other two of which being Ludwig and Orphan.

Pure content and area in total, all of AoA is longer than the Nightmare (which only took so long for most people because Ludwig was a giant cunt) and the short ass Hamlet. Why the fuck are people mad?

>>
>>158428062
Maybe it's a little much, but I think it made sense to do it that way. Most people who invade have been doing it for years at this point, and are too good at it to not give the host the advantage. Plus it would just be no challenge to the invader anymore either.

So this DLC pretty much confirms that Yuria and co are fucking liars, right? Given that the eldest sister was an heir of fire all along and more than capable of becoming a undead/hollow and becoming the lord of hollows.

The only thing that makes it completely retarded is being able to seed. I don't mind gang bangs that much (though you shouldn't be able to summon a blue phantom if you already have two phantoms, but whatever). Unless the host is retarded or doesn't have phantoms, using a seed tips the balance in their favor by such a ridiculous amount.

It's related to the host.
Basically there's a bug that causes the host's gamestate to freeze. It typically happens when phantoms are in the process of connecting (summoned/invading) or disconnecting (dead) but if their connection/computer is really shit it can also happen randomly. It causes players to desync completely from one another, to the point where damage either goes one-way only, or is just anulled entirely. In some cases, phantoms even lose the ability to see or interact with one another, and the game becomes a ghost town with many people.

It's percentage based.

Knight-slayer ring is more powerful for weapons and attacks that already have very high stability damage.

I kill him in like 20 seconds and he can't even hit me ever with weapon art.

And he bleeds fast as shit and you get a free visceral after a few bleeds

>>158429968
you break your lock on, turn around and observe where she lands the second she becomes invisible, then you stunlock her face until she runs out of health, she's completely helpless while charging it
>>
>>158429968
1. hit her with a throwing knife before she goes invisible, it will stick to her and you'll see where she is

2. use the fact that she jumps forwards after going invisible (you can see and hear her jump) to predict where she is
>>

Turn 180 when she jumps

>>158429968
Once she goes invisible, pay attention to the trail of ice she leaves behind.
If there is only a "puff" of ice, it means she jumped behind you. Merely run in that direction and she will be revealed when you get close.

As for dodging the invisible attack:
1) pay attention to the audio cue that plays right before she appears
2) she has a delay when she comes out of invis - she doesn't attack immediately, she gives you some time to react

Yeah, Vilhelm would've been a much better NPC boss compared to the grave tender, that guy was a joke. If he was tougher, than the wolf would have time to get into the fight for a 2v1, but he dies so quick.
The wolf itself was decent, i guess.

You'll notice that this, combined with the ability to walk backwards, completely nullifies the first phase.
You would have been happier figuring it out on your own.
>>
>>158430035
I tried the carthus sword for the first time as i began the DLC, not really sure how the two weapons compare, other than the sabre having a good WA.


I wish the follower sabre was a worse weapon, so i wouldn't be seen as an asshole following the trend, i just want a damn SABRE.

Not locking on has been an excellent idea in every souls game.

Especially considering you have nearly full directional range of your weapon swings.
Also is fun to do in PvP

Can anyone drop me 999999 embers on ps4?

>>158428318
Yeah, just another reason catacombs is awesome, I feel like I still have a lot to learn about its subtleties for PvP. Like I accidentally stumbled upon a hole I could jump through, that goes into all of those wheel skeletons near the first catacombs bonfire? Didn't even know it was there before but it saved my ass and allowed me to escape a gank, host and phantoms forgot about me and ended up catching the host with a javelin throw as he was trying to fight mobs, and killed him. Felt so satisfying.

That said I seriously haven't run into a single seed user at SL45, which I love. Seed is the one thing I loathe in the game, with no seed I'm happy to even fight 1v4 through a whole level. Seed is the one thing I hate the most about invasions although you're right, if you do it right you can use it to your advantage sometimes. I dealt with it in pontiff before though which is cancer, with the fireball priests and the greatbow archers.

>>158429726
idk, I've been invading at the first bonfire there next to the skele-boulder and haven't had any issues with people skipping anything. more often than not they run back to that bonfire and "summoning another phantom", but as long as there is no seed (which I haven't seen one ever yet) I'm cool with that.

Leading people into the boulder is so fucking satisfying you have no idea. You have to time it right though, and know your escape routes. Lots of subtleties and choke points you can use to your advantage, it's great. Those carthus mobs are sweet to fight with too.
>>
>>158429595

This happens in PvE sometimes too.

Apparently you can't summon anyone to help with pyromancer mc crazy pants. It just blocks the door to the branches with fog.

I really like the ValorHeart, is it any good in PVP? Seems like the R1 WA is hard to get them with and the R2 is pretty slow

Hit 'em with an ultra weapon. Yhorms is good, a classic.
Hit 'em with something fast enough to get in before their first swing or get in and get out between swings (carthus cuck sword is an obvious one, but I've done amazing things with dagger rolling R1's like carthus GK, especially if you fast roll).

Throw shit at 'em (offhand arbabest, firebombs/kukris/knives, etc)

If they're just R1 spamming they're pretty predictable, just don't run into them when they're going into the R1 R1 R1 R1 walking death.

Honestly they're not that big of a deal. GS's are just "good" now they're not CCS or anything like that.

Imagine if this fight was only the first of at least one or two others (wolf boss not counting, he's just the one you rush to when you want to unlock the arena)

It would be fucking amazing, and have a real change of surpassing Old Hunters. At is it though, it's like this stopped at the story and pacing equivalent of the Ludvig fight.

I'm really jealous of all the people who get to pick up the GOTY edition with all the DLCs a year from now and have everything ready for them from the get-go. Meanwhile, we have to wait another 6 months for the second half of this.

I know what you mean, but I don't think DaS3 DLC has a chance of standing up to TOH because the base game isn't as good. Also, they're split into two parts, whereas TOH benefits from being one combination of two DLCs.
