I seriously don't see what's so hard about this.
You people are fucking awful at spacing if you're having this much trouble with black flame.

>>159111235
Are they just trying to cast every time you fire and don't wait until you're reloading?

>>159111212
Warrior's starting shield would be better for that

still, pretty good

would be cool if you could bullet edit boulder heave to fire emit force for Unrelenting Force

Did the Gravetender use magic on anyone else?

>>159111370
He switches to it in the second phase if you don't kill him fast enough.

>>159111303
>lol just don't trade bro!!
that's only doable if your weapon is long enough, if not you're eating a black flame since it casts instantly and breaks hyper armor

>casts instantly
are you just blind
it has a clear windup and if you miss it's at least a full second if they want to try casting it again
if your weapon isn't long enough run around just outside of the range and then WD in
it breaks hyper armor but it doesn't give them any so you can stagger them out of any fucking cast if you're fast enough

You know the page mentioned is who you actually fight, right? Not the champion himself

>>159112354
It means you use caestus plus kukris for batarangs

>>159112309
I don't know what I'm missing here. The Champion was a male, but his page, the Gravetender, is female.

I'm basing this off her voice when she gets hit

>>159112428

>>159112354
You can't be bat man there's no bat hat

>>159112428
make it longer, that's literally all there is to it. they wont though

>>159112784

Because they're realizing that most people only buy DLC to get the hot new pay-to-win items, not for the story or gameplay.

>>159112846
What items are pay to win?

>>159112428
1) Add parties to the arena.

>>159112672
Okay, you have my permission.

>>159112846
I know you're retarded and don't know you can just have someone drop the dlc weapons for you, but even so the stuff you can't get normally aka spells are all incredibly average and situational

>>159112920
>win duel
>pinata pops out of nowhere with streamers and a big "SURPRISE" banner

I'd buy it.

>>159113138
So they aren't pay to win. Strong, yes, but that should be the case.

I think parting flame is well balanced too.

>>159112354
What chest? Drang? Don't forget to make the skin black

>>159113138
Its not P2W if you can acquire it without paying at all, ie: having someone drop it for you.

>don't want dlc
>find out pyromancy parting flame is overpowered as shit and can one shot people with black flame

literally forced to buy the dlc

>>159113259

So because someone else paid for you to win, it's not pay to win?

Genius.

>>159112528
>>159112464
Oops, my mistake. I still wonder about the choice of armor for the gravetender.

>on release black flame/great combustion were literally worthless because the hitbox was busted and half the displayed range
>they fixed it later in a patch
>now spells got buffed to break poise so it's super strong again, albeit worse range/cast speed than DaS1 and still requires 60 points of Stat investment
works I guess

>>159113386
That's how it always is, magic has a huge stat investment, and when it makes its way into the meta people bitch that the level is too high and they want it dropped down to dex only levels. I wouldn't be surprised if people called for level 60 builds after all this.

>>159113379
It's too weird not to be supposed to be replaced by a player. He also has those medals. People must have not figured it out yet. Any info from from?

>>159113351
What exactly is so special about the parting flame? Looks to me like a pyromancy flame with slightly lower spellbuff and the ability to recharge estus.

>there were no invading npcs in AoA

I've only ever played das1 and das3, is it common for From to not put npc invasions in their dlc?

>>159113481
I said from the start that 120 was too high and no one believed me because "Pyro and magic/faith NEED the levels!"

Make the skin black but use the solid dot tattoo over the mouth/chin and color that skin tones

>>159113796
Yeah it one shots with flame stop defending it

>>159113481
actually pure casters can function just fine as low as 60 while a melee build is going to be worse off by not being able to have enough VIG/END/STR/DEX
with a pyromancer you can go 30/30 with witch/swamp rings and still do comparatively better damage than anything but a UGS/UGH since STR builds only need 27STR+VIG and end

>>159113917

The skin shouldn't be showing anyway. If you're on PC, I recommend replacing the hair ID with lorian's armor and wear drang armor normally. You can also try setting your age to 3 if you dont want to make the skin black, but you'll get a beard

>>159113740
Oh i forgot about dunnel, he was just so set up it felt more like a set piece than an invasion.

>>159113921
Haha what? hell no, to get any returns at all on spells you need 60 stats total in your damage stat. you'd be waltzing around with minimum hp to get any damage at all while a pure dex or str user would have an overwhelming hp and stamina advantage.

>>159113581
You think she might have the same mechanic from looking glass knight? That would be pretty cool.

>>159114024
Did you know you can dodge roll in this game? Try pressing O on your controller sometimes.

>>159114154
How does rolling change anything I said? You have .5s to react to a black flame cast it's safer to stay our of range and play the boring meta game of either play passive and stay in pyro dead zone or roll a pyro yourself

>>159114071
Like I said, pure caster
https://www.mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/108773
definitely not as strong as SL80 where you can have stronger spells and also more VIG but I'm killing alright with this

>>159114247
I've beaten pyros by simply dodging all their spells until they're out of fp and suicide by jumping.

If you lose to a pyro or any caster in this game you got massively out played. End of.

>>159114247
Or you can red bug pellet+red stoneplate + dragon crest and equip something to run them down with like a straight sword or washing pole.

>>159114086
No, but it might be old monk. Besides, memeyahacki doesn't gate des like ds2
>>159114071
That is true for mages/clerics, not pyromancers. And reminder that sorcerers can have the needed stats at that level, so they are in 1 shot territory

>>159114263
But you can just press black flame once and win, but I guess that's skill because you're a caster eh?

That's literally taking a risk with how fucky netcode is. Dodge timing is always a variable, and eating a single black flame could possible turn the whole match.

>>159114370
Right because dying to a instant kill spell means people are bad
>>159114371
I use washing pole. I'm not losing to them, I'm just finding it stupid I have to play a boring playstyle because From is too incompetent to test new weapons and their effects on PvP.

every time i alt tab back in my character disappears and i'm unable to move or interact with anything except my menu.

Is there a fix or do i just have to feel with it?

>>159114370
>If you lose to a pyro or any caster in this game you got massively out played.
Unless they just one shot you from off screen in an invasion.

>>159114393
I don't play as a caster. I beat them with my eyes closed.

Have you ever considered that you might just be shit at PvP?

>>159114507
Its the same thing as dying to a swordswing. Difference is that the sword swing doesn't cost fp.

Go watch Scott's video about how shit pyros are.

Casters are gimped as fuck in ds3 and quality babbies still bitch about them.

>shit dark/fire resist armorfags complaining about pyromancy/black flame
>cloth armor high mag resist master race not caring
Why don't you babies just use Stoneplate rings and pellets?

>>159114526
Yes invasions are a different matter. Pyros and sorcerers can do quite well there. I was talking about 1v1 duels.

>>159114689
I do it gimps magic damage more than fire though, with respect pellets and stoneplate rings

>pyro defending their one shot wombo combo

Could be bad netcode but if you're on PC it's mostly likely CE. I remember once I chain stabbed some faggot who I thought was using CE, trying to send him off a cliff. A few seconds later he splattered all over the place as the bs registered. He probably got za warudo'd in his screen

I don't get it, its called 4 kings yet 5 spawn...? This is a really dumb boss, the whole game is about learning patterns to avoid attacks, yet this one if you don't rush in you can't win because they all gank you

Is there some kind of trick to this? I"ve done it a million times now, I've been on this boss for days, I do 5-10 tries and then I get frustrated and give up, I'm feeling like I'll never finish this game because of this

>>159114898
Charged r2 counter hit on an UGS can in some circumstances.

Black flame doesn't one shot you either. Stop lying.

HOW TO FIX PYRO
Make both black flame and parting flame effect spell parryable

>>159114991
it can in arena, and if not it leaves you in range to die to one fire surge burst which hits through rolling most of the time

Is it me or is the hammer poise patch retarded?

Has anyone actually managed to create a viable Paladin build (STR/FTH) ? I've been screwing around a lot in mugenmonkey, but can't find a good solution

To be a paladin you need
>Big heavy armor, no paladin with any self respect runs around in fucking rags
>Stronk, and big scary weapons
>Must have a back up mace to smite skeletons, faggots and non belivers
>Miracles

Sounds reasonable, but when i try to make a build it comes too
>Waste a ring slot on Sage ring because lol no dex
>Waste a lot of points in vigor because fashion
>Spend the rest of the points in STR/FTH/ATN
>End up with shit HP and stamina

Help ;..;

>>159115297

At what level and vig?

>>159115074
1. It doesn't one-shot, stop talking out of your ass. Killing you in one hit if you had already had HP missing doesn't count
2. If its such a fucking problem for you just walk in their face with a Cathedral Knight Greatshield/Crest Shield and poke them with a spear when they cast.

The greatshield is optional, might want to change it so you can use heavier armor. Did the best I could, but in ds3 weight is a real issue. Most of the time you can only pick one of the following: greatshield, greatweapon, or heavy armor.

Golden Wing Crest Shield can be interchanged with anything as heavy or lighter of course and alternatively you can Refine both of the weapons and replace a spell with Lightning Blade but I don't know how that would be for damage, it would also inhibit you from swapping between the two.
Reasoning on AGS is its the lightest UGS and still has an S scaling in FTH when Lightning infused
Regular old Mace has the highest FTH scaling with Lightning infused out of all of the Hammers too.

Hey guys way back there was some autistic sounding retard that made a review of Dark Souls 1 complaining about how the game doesnt tell you what to do even though the controls were spelled out in the messages in front of him.

Its the best I could do while still getting the best bang for your buck out of FTH. Any more VGR would mean have really sub-optimal END for a UGS and having to wearing Robes/Rags over Armor. Maxed Rings bring you up a 100 at least.

Is Calamity ring viable for PvP?

>>159117904
It would be preferable and was actually very easy to do in DaS1 and 2.
Problem in DaS3 is FTH is kind of pointless unless its really high, most of the relevant spells have high requirements and the scaling makes it very lackluster, even when its maxed out.

Start Pyromancer, starting gift Fire Gem. Infuse when at firelink. High Wall, snag the Astora Straight Sword, infuse Raw. Kick ass with your Raw ASS and level whatever. I usually start putting points into everything and switch to BKSword when I get it, can use Hollowslayer Greatsword until then.

Endgame, Rosaria your stats to pure Int. Soul Spear and MLGS can ruin Soul of Cinder, Nameless King, Gundyr, etc. Or just pyro everything.

Didn't say it'd be pvp viable. But by endgame, you got enough stats to just yolo whatever on a pve respec. Pyro start is strictly so you have starting fireballs, and since it works well with BKSword / Astora Straight Sword. PvP you'd wanna be more careful with your build.

You use one button as a switch. Think of alt key. When you hold this button, other buttons do alternative function. I used X,O,triangle and square as 4 spells.

Honestly setting your kick to a stick is retarded idea to begin with. I personally used switcher key + R1 to kick. Switch key being select. Anyway I dont think it will work regardless, DaS3 seems to hijack the button from windows. If it works report back.

From the wikis:
>Infused with "Raw", Blue Flame is capable of doing very high spell damage - even at 12 intelligence - making it possible to use spiced down, very damaging spells, with almost no relevant stats.
>Infusing with "Magic" will benefit any wielder with 68 Intelligence or above; this, combined with the ability to cast Soul Spear at a low height (allowing for point blank casting), makes it a deadly weapon for a high INT built caster. .

>>159119494
that only shows the base damages, the scaling would be filling the gap. if you infuse with faintstone and buff with cmw, it's spellbuff rivals staff of wisdom, while having the cast point much closer to your hand, meaning you can pull off point blank soul spears and barrage

Japs are arrogant as fuck, I wouldnt fear that. In addition there is literally no way for the game to know EMU is running. It doesnt have any link with DaS3. DaS3 only see keys on keyboard being pressed moderately fast. There is already a cap on how fast you can press buttons.

In nutshell, they cant do much. The only thing they could do is increase the timing even further but that would prevent the guys who manually switch it and it would make community rage.

How quaint to try and make yourself right. Artorias is never depicted as the protag in any advertising. It was always full Elite Knight man as was the case with Dark Souls 2 and Demon Souls. Dark Souls 3 was split between "Red Knight" and the starting Knight Class in advertising, with what we later found out to be Soul of Cinder on the cover.

I mean he's technically correct

A pickaxe isn't a weapon

>mlgs viggouges

Who will the final boss be for DLC 2? how will it tie up the entire series?

Ariamis isn't thicc enough to appeal to Scathegrapes, so we won't get proper art of her feet.

Does the steel protection ring help at all if I'm not wearing armor?

Translation: I suck at PvP and can only win in big team fights where individual skill doesn't matter as much

The Abyss Dragon the Millwood Knights were running away from.
And it will actually be Kaathe.

>>159121581
Same reason why it was a thing in DS1 - because MLGS needs a very low amount of stat investment to reach a full damage output and with GS buff it's a very strong weapon now.
I can easily make a build with MLGS and full millwood set at SL120 and it's going to wreck shit.

>>159121646
Steel protection doesn't help at all in PVP. The values you see are not the values you get.

Rings like Steel Protection and clutch rings are noob traps and a waste of ring slot, never use them.

>>159121646
Yes

dsp is not bad per se.
dsp is just gifted.

I mean he didnt understand the concept of invulnerability frames in his ~400 hours of soulborne playthroughs, constantly managed to get the camera unlocked / stuck.

This is either Parkinsons or a gift.

Off you go, trash.
Glad that we got a containment area for your kind now.

I thought it was something like absorption is capped at 25% in pvp so if I'm naked with the ring I'll get the full effect without diminishing returns.

Goddamn that's a really good Joker.

I guess its range makes Black Blade really shit? I love how it looks though

>>159121805
He is 100 percent faking for $$$

If he was really this retarded how could he have that panda bitch to make food and be a tuna a night?

>>159121842
the diminishing return thing was an honest mistake.

>>159121915
Yeah

Basically wp tier damage but half the range

>>159121905
What system? i encounter a joker with the same getup too

>japanese dialogue of Yuria tells that Kaathe is dead and Lord of Hollows was his dying wish
>the actual catch with Serpents in DS3 was in that there's no catch, both of them are already dead and game is focused on either fulfilling the last wish of one of them - either linking the Fire for the last time or becoming a lord of hollows or doing your own thing and actually resetting the world so it can begin anew

Wat
My "Special" playthrough was the one where I actually did summon people.
And I wish I didn't because only 1/4 of the time were they able to come with me into the boss room because DkS3 is a piece of shit. Never had any online issues like that in Souls

>spooky invisible Bordt
I have never seen this happen before

What's even weirder is that I had my sign down for people rushing dancer and somehow this guy summoned me all the way from the first bonfire

>>159122048

That should be your first run, never fucking summon for your first playthrough it only makes you a shitter. Learn how to deal with the game first then spam summons all you god damn like, everything is always easier the second time round summons or not.

You NEVER summon during your first playthrough. Not even NPC phantoms.

You stupid sack of shit.
