What's the big deal? Where else are you going to throw those points?
>mandatory sage ring
I mean, I guess if you have dex it isn't, but for things like fire surge you're going to be drastically cutting the damage you do without the sage ring since you'll have to roll away far earlier after casting, meaning that it's out for a fraction of the time, meaning you're doing a fraction of the damage.

So on the subject of rings and shit, hows this going to work out? I have no clue how this chime's scaling works. Would I get more sorcery damage if I went 45/35? Alegedly miracles and sorcery benefit from both stats with this, but I'm not entirely sure and I don't need to scale these miracles at all really (35 with great heal would probably always fully heal me).

Pyromancy is ridiculous because you get earlier access to it.

To get Chaos Bed Vestiges you have to kill the demon king, while you have to kill at least Logan/Crystal Sage in the Grand Archieves for endgame sorcery. As a cleric you need to kill NK and the soul of lords to get access to the neato spells.

Pyromancers also get access to dark pyromancies after finishing irythil dungeon.

Did I mention that many bosses are vulnerable or at least not resistent to magic?

I don't even know how sorcerers bear through the game.

At the same time spells and miracles scale harder early on compared to pyromancer's which is why you get basically all of them halfway through the game. With the other 2 magic schools you're nuking hollows with basic spells and then once you get the late game stuff you one-shot shit

or

40 DEX / 40 INT with GSoJ

Yeah Witch's Locks are a good weapon and you can still use pyromancies to keep the pressure up even if you don't deal that much damage with them, but honestly what is the point if you rely mainly on your weapon as a caster.

Sage ring is an absolute must if you don't have 40 DEX because it improves most cast speeds significantly, even if it's not as noticeable as say lightning spear

How to git gud at parrying, I got invaded by The Parrymaster, he just 1shot parries 2 people in a row, then almost parries me, I only escaped the parry master parry due to using a stance weapon with weapon skill shield. I eventually lost after we fucked off fighting eachother for like 30 minutes, he 1shot parried another blue during it also. Sadly I think the only way I was going to kill him was with a parry of my own, or keeping the battle of attrition going with estus until host advantage won out.

To squeeze damage out of spells? I don't understand. Most casters can't afford to do fantastic damage on their melees with optimized spell slinging builds EXCEPT Pyros in 120-125 meta. Carrying around a weapon on a 60INT build doesn't make you any less of a Sorc, and carrying a weapon on a 40/40 Pyro doesn't stop you from being a 40/40 Pyro with the best overall set of spells in the game

>no point
Might as well use a crossbow with exploding bolts, those are easier to free aim anyway and cause much more pressure than most pyromancies.

If you don't wear the caster rings you aren't going to achieve much my friend. Hitting a spell is hard enough so if you do, you want it to deal at least some damage, no? It's a difference if you build around a certain weapon with utility spells or if you are a caster with a melee backup to punish people rolling into you.

You'd do better running up and roll catching them because every caster rolls on reaction to you even taking a step near them.

I never said I wasn't wearing the rings though. Wearing the rings and having 60INT/FAI or 40/40 for Pyro doesn't stop you from being those things just because you have a weapon equipped
>>
>>159790128
Having a weapon while also having the investment for doing spell damage is fine, it's just that if you're using spells as a secondary rather than a primary you might as well have just gone quality for better damage off your main method of attack.

>>159790039
good casters will punish you mindlessly rolling into them, either with black flame or by pressing R1 or the Whip WA. Crossbow is a utility to keep the pressure up, just like pyromancies are if you don't wear the rings because you will do shit damage, a crossbow requires a way lower stat investment though.

I see no reason to play a pyro without the rings because the things you do accomplish without the rings are things other builds can do as well with much lower stat investment.

Something I never quite fully understood with weapon scaling:

Obviously a ton of weapons in DaS3 are scaled best for quality, but some are D/C scaled for Str/Dex respectively (like Hollowslayer Greatsword). Is it better to stack more towards the C scaling stat than the D scaling one (something like 30/50) or go regular old balance (40/40)?

Mainly I'm wondering this because of softcaps
>>
>>159790128
Yeah that whole thing was directed at the guy saying he uses WL and doesn't use the rings but thinks of himself as a pyro.

In which case I think you don't even need any extra attunement and can just go with black serpent and a crossbow to achieve the same, baiting people into your whip WA.
>>
>>159790496
I know most quality builds in DaS1 went 27/40 (or 28/40 to use murakumo 1-handed) due to the 2-handing bonus for strength weapons. Not sure if there's anything like that for DaS3.

It's pretty normal to tweak stuff after it's been trialed in a live environment, just like the adjustments to DLC stuff right after it's been released and everybody's pointed out what's wrong with it.
I thought poise was in a decent spot as well, but maybe they just want to fiddle a bit more while they're still working on it.
>>
>>159794176
The only reason we weren't getting major patches pre-dlc is because team was busy with actual DLC creation, unlike DS2 where DLCs are just a cut content and not something developed from scratch like AoA.

I hated the DS2 version. The fact that they made both 1HR2 and 2HR2 lightning severely limited the moveset. Not sure which I like more out of DS1 and DS3 the fact that WA arts are now a thing really opened it up and the held down R2 kind of emulates it but in the DS1 version the second hit in a heavy combo had a massive damage multiplier or something. I rarely had the chance to use it in pvp but when it hit, it absolutely decimated.

yo /dsg/, what do you think is the difference between the 3 magic types lore/ world building wise? What talents are intelligence, faith and attunement? Keep in mind that lothric for example casts a mixture of both, that the sages are also known as the "preacher twins" and as spiritual gurus and that archdeacon mc donnel was a sorceror but has a staff that scales with strength and that rosarias followers get a staff that scales with luck.

Steam should be pronounce!


I will come with a legal process against steam. Is not possible that after the DLC number of users and owners of NVIDIA video card 10060, 10070, 10080 are experiencing crash issues, windows crash etc. Before the DCL was not having these problems, even after the atualizazao the video card driver and the steam or bandai not had any statement in this forum. If I use the last drive of the video card the game closes when using the fire if I use previous versions, windows stops working (takes longer happens). How long will you stay without commenting to the problem?

PS: Sorry to other community menbros (players) for my English is bad

>Increased player’s resistance to physical attacks

What does this mean? Do they mean actual defense (as in the thing increased by VIT) or these weapons give poise buffs now? Or are the necessary poise values going down (pic related, giving lower values for these weapon types)?

Are they undoing the halberd nerf? Can I play with my BK Glaive again?
>>
>>159803898
quick question: does the swordspear count as a halberd when you 2H it? i remember hearing it had HA before the poise patch, just wondering if it's affected by these things (i.e. at least while 2H'd uses the halberd poise values even though it's a spear)?

It's not a big deal, that was early on when I just started Arena, you can see I don't even have a medal at that point.

I rarely if ever got to use it, I too thought I could cheese people with that shit but you just get backstabbed by anyone who isn't garbage. You need a pretty damn large amount of distance... I'd say it's a lot more useful in 1v1 brawl in all honesty.

Whilst I can't say the WA is at all useful, this weapon is one of the few that I use the R2 on regularly.

It's great fun and looks really good too. Don't know if it's really "underrated" though. People certainly prefer the BKGS, at least.
>>
>>159805721

I just got 18 FAI for the swordspear requirement, mostly because fishing for hornet turtlepoke backstabs is so easy and I literally just wanted the highest damage long-reach spear I could get my hands on, though the 1HR2 and WA are pretty great extras as well. Figured I might as well put on med heal since it didn't cost anything more stat-wise. Like I said though it almost never used it effectively, healing takes too damn long and is very easy to punish in duels.

Would have been much better off with replenishment I think so I could just cast it first thing. There's tears but that would require 4 points into attunement for the extra slot.

You were using the bellvine for cast speed, right? Personally I find it useful for mages. I love when someone who's been talking backwards chiping away at me with farron darts all duel long doesn't even have a weapon to backstab me with when I instantly heal their minutes worth of work.

You're right though, its usefulness is pretty limited, and healing pubbie allies in teams is borderline impossible.

He also thinks the ayyvelyn is better than the arbalest.

Pikes and Spears are different. The running attack is actually a crappy mini-charge instead of the poke, for example.

It doesn't matter though, the trick is to use the R2 attack on a lothric knight long spear, especially while 2H'd. I think even while 1H'd it doesn't get hurt by the speed debuff on the R2.

The R1 of the long spear is the same reach as the swordspear (and I think the DS spear too) but the R2 is longer than any other spear. The attack reach of the pike and greatlance is actually less than this, oddly enough. Test it by turtlepoking a wall since you don't move forward with that attack, R1 with your guard up.

Basically if you use a pike weapon you use the LKLS and you git gud at using the R2.

t. someone who used a 2H LKLS for the entirety of his first playthrough, beat all of the bosses (including first try NK) just by gitting gud at rolling.

Pikes really deserve some sort of poise to make up for the shitty running attacks, I mean they're not spears they're an entirely different weapon class, essentially the ultra weapons of the spear class. They aren't even longer than spears in a lot of cases (DSSS, DSS, GFS, etc)

That's not specific to the GL, any shield or thrusting sword can do that. I do that shit all the time, see: >>159805470

You're right though in the sense that too many people probably don't even know turtlepoke bs is a thing (uses a different, faster animation for the bs compared to a normal R1), and that shields 100% counter parrying (since if you do feint running attacks without a shield they can counter that by simply R1 spamming into your face for free since you aren't actually going to attack, with a shield if they do that you just take 1-2 hits to the shield and roll back and repeat).

You go 40 DEX 60 INT/FAI (why you wouldn't use DMB for a buff if you're going that route I have no idea, but okay) or you go the fuck home. It's just not worth it over resin otherwise.

Honestly though I wouldn't even bother with leo ring with the quills, it doesn't really add that much damage and you aren't usually trying to counterthrust anyways, just use hornet for parries or more likely, backstabs.

The backstabbed guy, he seriously think he's some kind of god of PvP. I did some duels and 2v2 with 2 other guys, I always was the best fighter in the end, only a few deaths, and he told me "you're almost as good as me".
He's not even a streamer, but he takes PvP way too seriously.
I also guess he has a shit connection, he won some of the duels with me because of lag.

Damn, was hoping I could find the VOD of that fight, I mean as you could see his human pine resin buff was still on during the 2nd backstab, both of them happened very closely together in time.

Only guy I lost to was literally ScottJund because I didn't think of a curved sword counter at the time, I was just fucking around since everyone lost so easily to the havels + swordspear cheese, and of course what does he do after I block his gargoyle a few times? Yep, whips out the carthus 2.0 and tryhards me to death. I didn't think of the offhand estoc to counter that at that point unfortunately. Then again I didn't think a Gold could be matched against a fucking Bronze who just started in the Arena, but can't say I'm surprised since From made it.

Still regret it to this day, it's like the only time I'm gonna randomly run into Jund is when I'm drunk and just fucking around with some meme build against the guy who has a fragile ego and does literally nothing but tryhard 24/7. Any time I'm actually ready I'll never queue into him, feels fucking bad man. Streamer rage is so fun.

It's great when you're prepared and are legit trying to streamsnipe them but it sucks when you don't tryhard 24/7 and accidentally run into one as tryhard as jund while you're just trying to get drunk and meme people to death.

We're talking about the guy known for carrying the best meta weapons only and pontiff dueling people for hours, swapping to the weapon that countered whatever the opponent brought every time. We're talking about the guy who's internet famous now for abusing the one fucking weapon type that counters my spear and board: CCS (or in this case, CCS because of the DLC).

And now that I devised a counter to the curved sword shit I'll never queue into him again since I already got gold, feels fucking bad.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>159812967
>>159813084

As a spear main, I can tell you the difference is the GFS is around 5 lbs lighter than the DSSS, and slightly longer. On the other hand, the DSSS does much more damage (especially physical, 440 AR just physical which is higher than even a lothric long spear on a 40/40 quality build, not counting lightning), has a halberd moveset when 2H (but I never use that), a horizontal sweep for the R1 when 1H, and the weapon art is far superior (the bolt can sometimes hit people for serious damage and it self-buffs for even more lightning damage).

I'd say the DSSS is better especially if you're like me and get hornet backstabs extremely often, but it has higher weight and stat requirements than the gargoyle. That build is my tryhard build and as you can see it's extremely min/maxed and set to counter literally anything. If I was gonna fight Jund again and actually could prepare ahead of time I'd either use that, or my DMB corvian GK bloodring build.

tl;dr DSSS:
+A lot more AR, actually useful WA, much better moveset, looks a lot cooler
-heavier, need 18 FAI, *slightly* shorter (but really not that much)

GFS:
+weighs less, slightly longer reach, less stat requirements
-really shitty split damage (it's much more half and half than the DSSS which is much more purely physical with a nice lightning bonus on top), can't be buffed, standard spear moveset (i.e. pokes and pokes and pokes).

Basically DSSS is a better spear but you're paying for those benefits with a larger stat investment.

An unembered character with 40 vigor, 80 vitality and full Smough's armor would die in 8 hits to a 40/40 1handed Darksword.

This is with Life Ring +3 and Ring of Favor +2.

Ring of Steel Protection +3 would not raise it. Only Tears of Denial would bump it up to 9 hits.

To the most min-maxed armor setup with the same ring slots would take 6 hits.

That is to say.

Is heavy armor ever worth it?

I made it to the prince fight, which is easier then the plantiff fight in dark souls 3, but, what I must say is that this game has an artificial difficulty factor dark souls 1 and 2 didn't have, even demons souls. In this dark souls, they gave enemies the ability to change the speed of animation frames relative to the players success rate. Here is how it works.

If the player is fighting a boss and gets close to beating the boss, the boss will change its animation speed from fast to slow for the same attacks. The purpose behind this is so that you will fail to beat the boss. This means if you don't beat the boss the first time when it was using fast animation speeds, the second time, it will throw in slow animation speeds and do so until the fast and slow animation extremes become a middle speed that you get use to, at which it returns to using fast and slow animation extremes all over again in order to make it harder for you to get use to the boss fight. The only acception is for people who use magic in order to beat the bosses or have beat the game at least once already.

The skill isn't a plus, it's a tax of "keep this up all the times or deal less damage than most other GS".

There is no clear "best" like the CCS and Sabre for curved swords.
BKS, Wolf Knight, Onyx, Claymore, Moonlight are all good in different builds with different sets of moves.

That must be nice. I get OCD when I play DaS games big time. I spend fucking hours meticulously calculating when to increase what stat, which equipment to go for at what stages in the game, etc. only to fuck something up and decide to wing it anyway. Eventually leading to me "trying another build" and repeating the same cycle over again.

I've never made it past Catacombs because of this. That is usually the point where I decide to respec. Thankfully I've found the respec covenant now. Maybe I'll finally finish the game.

Although I managed to fucking miss Siegward's quest starting event.

Hollowslayer's damage is nothing special(in pvp), it has less AR 2h than a Claymore(while being unbuffable), and significantly less than Wolf Knight and BKS.It's still my favorite GS by far, those R1s are just way too sexy.

Best moveset. Hollowslayer feels like the buff patch didn't hit it as hard. It's also very clearly better than the bastard sword since it's got significantly more reach, and I'm pretty sure you can just rollbackstab stomp.

not really. You already have broad 1HR1 swings either way.

This is the same company that referred to daggers as "short swords" and wrote the name of a completely different weapon than they meant to in the last patch notes.

The patch barely did anything to 2h movesets, both for Hollowslayer and "normal" greatswords. Their 1h movesets are the same.

Fighting any GS with their insta-HA r1 spam is so annoying.

How do i deal with it without being an ass and just using a Crossbow.

Yes, but the 2h moveset of hollowslayer was only better for HA.
Now that HA trading is reliable for all GS, the three hits are meaningless

If they are truly lost then they will keep doing it until they are dead

I already baited people into the WAR1 before it was buffed, because nobody actually used this weapon, so nobody knew about its attacks.
But now that it has been buffed, it's even better. Even the WAR2 is faster now.
