Seath was a dragon of science and study and didn't let petty morality or consequences stand in the way of his magical and crystal research.

He was even close to attaining perfect immortality, not to mention his vast library of knowledge.

He was sort of like Bioshock's Andrew Ryan but with magic in the Souls universe.

What was his role before venturing into the abyss? Did he ever fought demons since he used a greatsword?

All his knowledge drove him insane and Bioshock is a terrible example of a character to use.

>>163178043

Yes. Crystal Sage Rapier + Symbol of Avarice + Gold Serpent Ring+2 + Rusted Coin with ~10 Luck is above 400, which is wat I usually use for farming. If you respec to 99 Luck and use a Gold Coin you'll be at ~550, but Gold Coins are limited and wasting a respec just for that is a bit too much for me.

I forgot to add that this will give you all thespecial upgrade material plus 1-2 hero souls so you can use them to buy chunks or pay for upgrade fees. It's overall useful and you can net one fully upgraded item by around 5-6 runs in 5-6 mins.

Fix your shit, turn that claymore back to normal path. Lightning spears suck against any enemy that isn't distracted by another player, they're locked behind a co-op covenant for a reason. Use a bleed weapon to melt Smough in seconds, then get all up in Ornstein's dick zone, only ever backing off if he jumps up. Two backward rolls should get you out of range of the shockwave.

Every weapon is completely unique.

Saw Spear and Saw Cleaver normal forms are similar
Ludwig's Holy Blade and Kirkhammer normal forms are identical.

Otherwise, virtually every weapon is completely unique and:

>anywhere between 3 and 5 distinct R1s
>UNIQUE backstep, sprinting, rolling attacks for BOTH forms
>some even have unique side rolling, back rolling, and front rolling attacks for one or more forms
>is effectively two weapons in one

What do you mean? Like literally just full-bore running? Or strafing around switching between running and walking at unpredictable interval, moving back and forth changing the space between you and them until they either launch an unpredictable running attack (especially with a katana or spear or halberd) or get the spacing right to either hit you if you aren't attacking/playing passively or punish a whiff by staying just outside your attack range?

Because the latter is a very viable tactic. That said most people who play the game at any SL are bad because souls games aren't made to be competitive fighter games, so most people play it casually. You could literally just say "Kill them every fucking time" without the first line, or just replace the first time with "Play Arena", and I'd probably believe you if you play DaS3 for enough hours.
>>
>>163184983
>>163185149

Who's the one wasting time? I got lunch and honestly just wanted to see how long he'd wait before doing something.

I invaded a bunch afterwards trying to get the same guy and I couldn't so I get the feeling that he literally just quit playing for the day or some shit, lol. Now I'm in the process of finding more shows I can watch or other shit I can have on hand to do when I run across some asshole and really want to grief them by occupying their level while hidden and never leaving so they're stuck there until they either get to the boss or kill themselves. Need to have stuff on hand pre-prepared.

You've been at this for a long time already, just shut up about your stupid whip.
>>
>>163185245

It's the same problem with anything, anon. Most weapons have weaknesses, I like using the Great Machete on my low level invader but it's nearly impossible to hit some faggots if it's say, a lone host who's trying to 1v1 you away from mobs. So I pair it with a butcher's knife which fixes a lot of those "can't hit shit they just roll around it" problems.

You've got the WA to fuck up medium weapons and smaller, yes? So use it for that. Against greatswords and other shit giving you problems, what would be good against those? Have that thing reason to either switch to or dual wield the scythe with. Like for example, offhand crossbows are great at countering greatswords, try an offhand arbalest with explosive bolts and just pew pew the fuckers, you can even switch between 1H and 2H your weapon very quickly if you want. Or get a spear or something. Just don't use a single weapon.

Nah he just sat there frustrated until he finally killed himself. I'm the one preventing him and his buddies from having fun, which is fun for me, not the other way around. While I'm there he doesn't get to gank anyone, he refuses to proceed through the level, and he can't use the bonfire. He's stuck and his friends probably got pissed after awhile of being bored. I'm surprised he lasted so long in all honesty.

The fun thing I noticed too is that if it's not a friend gank with passwords and people knowing each other and shit, people will just fucking leave. Even blues will crystal out, and then you're free to run in there and fuck up the lone host, it's pretty hilarious especially if he is able to get another summon at some point in the fight and you just run off, and he knows you're out there but the phantoms don't. Shit's hilarious.

halberds in ds1 were a pretty bad weapon type for anything outside of BS fishing because each miss triggered a fucklong recovery animation enough to get your ass BS punished into oblivion, they were pretty bad in both hands but typical quality builds in ds1 are 27/40 so it was mostly held in 2h for damage bonus and higher poisebreak

The 2H multiplier in DaS1 was really good, 1.2 for most if not all weapons. I don't know what it is in DaS3 but it's something really low like 1.01. You barely get any bonus damage by two handing in DaS3 unless it's a strength weapon where you get the bonus for your STR stat, not the AR multiplier. Also poise damage was important in DaS1, two handing did more poise damage.

Have they changed how backstabs work in Dark Souls 3? Little faggots keep running up to me and locking me into backstabs with great ease, when for most of the time I've been playing this game I've have a good chance to roll out of them or get out the way.

Ash lake was all aesthetic and no effort/creativity. Brilliant idea, beautiful concept, dogshit execution to actually play through. It's basically an on-rails aesthetic-fest.

Thank you very much, anon! Farming for it is a pain because of how sparse Evangelists are.

>>163195694
They're catalysts which you can fight with too. So you can use r1's and jumping attacks but also switch it up by casting a spell out of the blue. It's quite effective to hit someone twice with r1 and when they roll away you can hit them with a soul arrow. It catches a lot of people offguard.

Some really old Guts build guide for DS1 advised to use the BKGS instead of the Greatsword UGS.
It's not as authentic as using the Dragonslayer but it's at least better than *unzips caestus+CCS*

Not him but I really hate the concept of PS+ so fucking much.

It basically forces you to pay for online features in games.
Even though you already paid for the fucking game. You already paid for the console, too.
You already pay for your own internet connection aswell.

It's absolutely fucking retarded how ontop of all those payments you make that they could EASILY use to maintain servers, you need to pay a seperate subscription for this.

Well it's not something I take as fact but a nice little fanwank I read suggested Sulyvahn might have once been a prisoner of Irithyll Dungeon. Sorcery might be frowned on in Irithyll: Irithyllians are all descended from/all worship the old pantheon, a few things which combine int and fai mention that it's sinful, and the prisoners of Irithyll Dungeon include a Vinheim student, a Xanthuous scholar and Karla. Sulyvahn is a sorcerer, so when he first arrived in Irithyll he was thrown in the dungeon and tortured to shit (if you look under his robe he's incredibly scarred: he's even been castrated). He eventually escaped to the Propane Capital, discovered the Propaned Flame there and made his come back.

Though, the problem with this theory is that the dugneon actually seems to be built on/includes the ruins of the Profaned Capital in its architecture, and Sulyvahn offered the jailers all their jobs, which implies that Sulyvahn was the dungeon's creator, not once a prisoner there. Unless he refurbished the place when he took control, that is.
>>
>>163203485
Kinda surprised Gwyndolin couldn't take Pontiff in a fight. It should be pretty easy given he can teleport all over the place, cast homing spells, and snipe you through walls.

>>
>>163203389
His exact words were "co-op fights" and I assumed that included PvP because that's a large part of the game and he specifically mentioned what's generally regarded as a negative practice in PvP.

Quit being a nigger.
>>
>>163203661
Pontiff is insanely strong himself. Only unlike Gwyndolin he travelled all around the world and most likely got sword training from Friede. He simply has more combat experience than a NEET god who can just flee. That's on top of whatever interdimensional shenanigans he used to conjure his own phantom and weaponize him.
>>
>>163203972
No, he was talking about wanting to coop for sunlight medals and having issues with that, he clearly didn't mean invasions at all since there's no item reward for those

Sulyvahn probably poisoned Gwyndolin or some shit. Yorshka mentions Gwyndolin's been ill for a while now. I imagine Sulyvahn worked his way into a high position in Irithyll, poisoned Gwyndolin and imprisoned him and Yorshka, then claimed to be Gwyndolin's agent and asserted his power over Irithyll.
>>
>>163204342

Maybe, but nothing really indicates that Pontiff was trying to treat Yorshka nicely or make her think that everything's okay. She calls him a tyrant and knows that he took the title unjustly from Gwyndolin, so he's not pretending to be friendly old Uncle Sully who's taking care of things while big bro Gwyndolin is poorly.

Whatever the case though, Sulyvahn incapacitated Gwyndolin and held him prisoner for what seems to be quite a while.
>>
>>163204097
>he was talking about wanting to coop for sunlight medals

Which is just what he's doing at the moment. I assume that his general statement about the game's co-op wasn't limited to this particular experience.

The very fact she's alive and in relative safety, guarded only by her extreme naivety, instead of being raped, mutilated, corrupted, experimented on and dumped to the sewer of the mansion, turned to beast or forced to watch Aldritch playing with her brother is enough reason to suggest that he treated her nicer than 99% of people around him.

That's very true, actually. I somehow forgot she seems to be the only citizen of the city who hasn't been fucked over by Pontiff severely.

Maybe he'd been taught to idolise Priscilla back in the Painted World and didn't want to be too nasty to someone who looked so much like her or something.

It's actually EXTREMELY possible that him leaving her alone is indeed connected to his Painted World roots given that he remade entire Irithyll to be closer to his home, with climate change, some plants from Ariandel, painting gallery, main entrance sealed via a small doll and beasts guarding his city.

Another reason is that he might value having a person with dragon blood around since he could be connected to the paledrake cult of Great Archives if he was indeed a scholar there at some point.

Third possibility is that he's a crossbreed himself and simply took pity on her. He has some features of tree creatures of Ariandel, but also much more humanlike and not grounded with roots.

>>
>>163205585
Killing Gwyndolin in the first game is optional, so presumably that's a non-canon choice that the Chosen Undead never carried out. Maybe the Chosen Undead never even found out about Gwyndolin.

After tricking the Chosen Undead into setting themselves on fire, Gwyndolin chilled in Anor Londo for the longest time. Some of the old gods and/or their descendents returned and reinhabited the city. Gwyndolin came out of hiding and asserted himself as leader and subject of worship. Anor Londo faded into obscurity, hidden behind illusions and the shifting landscape, became known as Irithyll and became the subject of fairy tales and legends. It's quite possible Gwyndolin orchestrated a few more linkings of the flame.

Eventually Sulyvahn came to the city, worked his way up the hierarchy and then overthrew Gwyndolin, asserting himself as Pontiff and pretending to be an agent of or avatar of Gwyndolin. Sulyvahn manipulated the city as he saw fit while Gwyndolin was captured, and eventually fed him to Aldrich.

>>163205805
I'd always assumed that Irithyll was cold because it was constantly night time (presumably some sort of illusion done by Gwyndolin) but it makes just as much sense that it's Sulyvahn's work. What I thought had happened before AoA came out was that the painting had rotted away, and that all the cold and the magical barrier somehow flooded out.

>some plants from Ariandel
The horrible centipede ladies? I'm like the idea that they're actually some stage of the Ariandel tree women life cycle, and that yeah, they were brought to Irithyll by Sulyvahn. I also really like the idea that Sulyvahn is one of them.

>>163206078
It's practically canon. Can't remember which item it was, think it was Vordt's hammer, but it says that Vordt was really fond of her and followed her around.
Vordt was a fat overbearing 'nice guy' who really wanted to fuck Dancer. You can tell from his autistic shrieks and the neckbeard sticking out through his armour

I never thought about this, but given Pontiff's origins in the painting, does that mean it's unlikely that he was also the first scholar of Lothric? Does this potentially open up the possibility that it was in fact Aldia that convinced Lothric to not link the flame?

>>163206925
>The horrible centipede ladies
Nah, light blue flowers growing even during extremely cold weather. There's a bunch of them in both Ariandel and Irithyll.
Though centipede monsters are certainly connected to tree girls as well. Pontiff most likely was accompanied by them at some point when he found profaned flame but dropped them right at the profaned capital forcing them to live in that horrible cave.

>>163207049
Greirat says that Irithyll is home to old moon worshipping nobles: Gwyndolin represents the moon and noble/royal bloodlines in Dark Souls often have a divine basis, so it makes sense that Irithyll is reinhabited Anor Londo built upon worshipping Gwyndolin.
Sulyvahn usurped leadership from Gwyndolin and it seems he did that a long time ago, before Aldrich and McDonnel left the city (so even before Aldrich became a goo monster), which would have been way way before the lands started converging.
Where the lands converge there's quite a lot of chaos. You can see that Lothric Castle has been thrust into the air, the Undead Settlement has huge chasms, the Cathedral of the Deep's main entrance is fucking ruined. However, Irithyll is quite clearly built around the Anor Londo cathedral, their architecture meshing together.
The armour of the Pontiff Knights, Outrider Knights, Fire Witches and the Dancer are all in what I consider to be an Anor Londo style, similar to the Silver Knights, with lots of ridges and decoration.
Yorshka says nothing about Irithyll and Anor Londo not belonging together.

The style of the buildings in Anor Londo and Irithyll are clearly similar and it should be obvious that Irithyll is the city you see in Anor Londo when you look down.

Lothric Castle isn't native to the area the rest of DS3 is. There's description that when the High Wall appeared, the path to the undead settlememt was cut off. The High Wall appeared, it wasn't there naturally,it just appeared.

Farron Keep, the highway, Smoldering Lake, meme ruins, and Irithyll are definitely from Lordran, Cathedral of the Deep might be Thorolund and Archdragon Peak might actually be Dragon Shrine. It would also explain the connection of Drakebloods in the area, how Ornstein was in DS2 and so on.

>>163201449

IC, they are cursed human knights that seek chosen undead to destroy. It's possible that Vendrick had them cursed specifically to fight challengers to his throne.

OOC, they are a giant Armored Core reference. They're color-inverted Nine Balls / Hustler One, right down to the fact that you have to fight 2 of them at once, there are multiple autonomous copies of them, they have a horizontal glowing eye, and they have a sword that shoots bolts of energy.

They're hollow, and cling to their past purpose in order to hold on to their last semblance of humanity. However, they are themselves corrupted, and endlessly attempting to purge themselves of the abyss, constantly being resurrected again and again in an attempt to link the fire only to fall in battle. It takes an Heir of Cinder to finally stop the cycle and put them out of their misery by claiming their souls. Once they no longer have a purpose, they're no longer resurrected.

I think the Followers did most of the purging.
>>
>>163212232
No. Followers purged members of the Legion that fell to the abyss. Internal self-policing. Which is why they're in the painted world, because they no longer had a purpose after their masters became Lords of Cinder and went to sleep. But, it turns out, their masters were resurrected to link the fire again, and without the Followers to keep everything in check they ended up falling to the abyss and ruining everything.

"When a warrior of Farron fell to the Abyss, the tall, lean Followers, with their hollowed eyes, quiety appeared in groups to hunt them down.

Farron and its Watchers fell to ruin, but the Followers survived as a wandering pack of Hollows."

"The Followers brandish their swords to hunt warriors taken by the Abyss. Their technique is honed to face men, implying those yet to lose their human aspect are their likeliest prey."

It's both.

The main guy behind the games is a big berserk fan, and a lot of characters and designs in the games are references to it. However, the games are completely unrelated to Berserk in terms of anything like story, so you don't need to read it out of necessity or anything

I would recommend reading Berserk if you like dark medieval fantasy like Dark Souls. The 80s anime and the 3 movies (which came out in the 2000s I'm quite sure) are watchable, the newest series that aired this year is awful and should not be anyone's introduction to the series.

Why are you using a strength weapon when you have 23 Dex? Why do you have 12 Attunement but no spell equipped?
>>
>>163187112
I want to do pretty much the same thing in a knight/warrior style build that can cripple enemies with Snap Freeze and Frozen Weapon, and play with inherent frost weapons like Vordt's, Irithyll SS and Friede's. Should I focus on strength
>ISS, VGH, heavy mace, Claymore
or dex
>faster casting, Friede's Great Scythe, Pontiff Knight weapons, sharp straight sword

Is Frost Weapon better than the secondary effect of weapons with an inherent frost bonus?

Is Zwei the best UGS in DS3? Or is it Profaned?
>>
>>163217568
gundyr shouldn't have had that weird 2nd tentacle monster phase. i think it ruined an otherwise cool boss. champion gundyr was great and should have been the first boss (just with same hp and damage), and corrupted version would have been in the untended graves, and begin with being angry with red eyes
>>
For a pure fire build with pyromancy and melee, how do I want to assign my stats? Afaik I can do 60 in INT, 60 in FAI, or 40/40 (odd numbers if you ask me) to reach the softcap in 3. Which are most preferable?
>>
>>163218637

Profaned, Lothric Knight or Astora's are the best.
>>
>>163218729
i kind of agree, but from another perspective it kind of makes sense that gundyr is a stronger boss without having been corrupted by the abyss (or whatever the fuck that is)
>>
>>163218789
Profaned is best if you're going quality

Playing DS1 for the first time, need some advice on weapon and stuff.
I kinda wanted to roll the heavy armor+shield+hammer cleric type of character, but the way maces are done really sets me off. I'm using morning star and the bleed damage is nice, but overall it's pretty underwhelming in terms of damage. Should I ascend it to divine if I have 30 str and 20 faith? Would it be worth it? Or should I look into other weapons?
I have also astora straight sword and I like it a lot, but I really really want to do maces\hammers dude

No 2 handers, because every other souls game I beat with 2 handers and light armor, trying something different this time around

The problem was that in DS2 it was just -enemy placed here- , without any lead in or atmosphere. I was thinking about this in terms of how a simple cutscene could have saved the guardian dragon like Sif or Quelaag had.

And the environments had completely different feeling to them, it just wasn't a very cinematic game. Still good, but didn't have as many memorable moments as DS1. Vastly superior mechanics, optimization, and balance, though.

Why? Invasions are fun as fuck, an experience literally LITERALLY no other game gives me.

When For Honor comes out I'll be switching to that as my main game but honestly I'll probably keep doing invasions until the game dies and I literally can't invade anyone because no one is there to be invaded.

Scrubs need to know their place. I'm just here to show them where they belong. In the fucking dirt.

It's mostly a reorganization. "Optimal" questlines and a large number of key items are obtained in the first section which allow the player to run through the bosses and complete the game, the next two list farmable/purchasable items, the fourth one lists map items, and the fifth goes over NG+X items and such.
It's heavily tailored to my preference, but maybe others will like it. It would be especially nice if I could have people test it and give me feedback, but I understand if most don't care for it.

No, it's a 100% item guide, not a "most items but you choose your own path."

But the actual Fume Straight Sword from 2 was a Dex weapon. Plus the Fume UGS in 2 has a 30 DEX requirement. Raime was clearly a quality build that liked powerstancing.

LET'S TALK ABOUT SCYTHES

So, are you building a build and considering a Reaper class weapon?

No? Well, you should be, because Reapers are one of the better weapon classes in the game right now, with great reach, deceptive AR (increased by 20% if you hit with the blade), and fast movesets.

But which ones should you pick?

GREAT TIER:

>Freide's Great Scythe
An obvious, if rather memey, contender for one of the best scythes in the game. Great 2H reach, decent AR, and a fantastic WA make for a good package here. The L2-R1 combo will catch people for a decent amount of damage, even if you can roll out after 2 hits, and the L2-R2 is good for area control and making people fuck off. In addition, the L2-R1 scales amazingly with poise, and can tank even Great Hammers. The DEX scaling is great, but the INT scaling is deceptive. It only applies to the small scythe during the WA, making it largely ineffective. For maximum optimization, pop most of your points in skill, a few in INT, and hit the base in everything else.

>Great Corvian Scythe
Another fantastic and versatile weapon, the Corvian Scythe offers the best AR of the class when built Quality. It has phantom range that beats out even the Freide Scythe and if properly spaced, is very dangerous. Because of its status as a Quality weapon, it does require more stats than the alternatives, but it's worth it. Neck Swipe is a decent WA for outtrading ultras and other HA weapons, but it's not to be spammed. Also great on a bleed build, or even against bleed builds, as proccing the self-bleed does less damage than normal bleed, making it an interesting tactic against them.
>>
>>163232657
But scythes are farming tools.
>>
>>163232657

ALRIGHT TIER:

>Pontiff Knight Great Scythe.
It's alright. It is a purely DEX weapon, allowing it to scale off of less stats than Corvian and reach good AR, but it's still somewhat lacking. In the place of Neck Swipe, it gets a frost buff, which can be effective at setting off Frostbite when used with Snap Freeze. It does have somewhat weird requirements, requiring a bit of FTH, but if you're one of those weirdos running a frost build, it's good shit and along with most of the class, perfectly usable.

KILL YOURSELF TIER:

>Great Scythe
There is no reason besides maybe fashion to use this over Corvian. Worse AR, similar build, same WA and generally the same damn shit as Corvian but objectively worse. Pontiff at least has a purpose and requires paltry stat investment to wield well, this thing is just a bad Corvian, and should be avoided unless you're cosplaying a farmer or some shit.
>>
>>163232657
>>163232923

Not this guy but here's some other notes. The Corvian Scythe's basic 2HR1 are in fact the longest basic attack in the game in sheer size of the forward hitbox.

If you land a basic 2HR1 at medium or close distance with any Reaper (not sure if this works with Friede's) as well you can directly combo it into a 2HR2 for over 500 damage.

All right

Got back into the game to play the DLC now that I have a few days off

Can someone tell me what's changed since a long time ago?

Is poise back? Are Twinblades and Astora Greatsword useless? What should I watch for now if I get invaded? Anything else I should be aware of?
>>
>>163233196
This is correct yeah.

Freide's might not work with that as it has a totally unique moveset, but I'll test it.

>>163233328
Twinblades are okay still, Astora GS is meh, poise is a thing again but simply affects how many attacks you can take during HA, similar to DaS2's system.
>>
>>163233328
>Is poise back.
Poise is working as intended.
>>
Have I been meme'd on the Onyx Blade? I have about 20/20 int/fai and my damage is still pretty fucking shit even with a +3 upgrade.

>>163233467

>>
>>163233328

Yes. Hammers and Reapers are now great. Greatswords are amazing.

Sellsword Twinblades are still good. Astora's Greatsword rolling attack got fixed but the Charge buff made that better.
Watch for not embarassing yourself because if you die to an invader in this game you deserve it.

>>163233467

What weapons should I even use on a LCK build now? Should I use a reaper now?

What did they change to the charge for the Astora GS?
>>
>>163233792
Warden Twinblades are exactly the same.

Corvian Scythe is a great bleed weapon though.
>>
Can you parry the crow talon WA?
>>
>>163234261
The tard-flailing fist weapon?

Doubt it.
>>
>>163234324
Yeah. It's probably too risky even if it's possible but it seems like it would be satisfying.
>>
>>163233792

Warden's are worse since the R1>WA combo was nerfed. Takes a lot more to bleed someone out with Rouge and leaves them able to roll through bleed procs.

Luck is really only good for Anri's/Carthus CS now imo.

Astora GS Charge and all charge WAs got buffed to have huge poise, allows them to trade with almost anything and come out on top.

Good, generally non-boring builds:

120 Quality w/ Faith utility, Cleric base: 38 vigor, 18 attunement 30 endurance, 40 strength, 40 dexterity, 16 faith. Excellent build for usage of the most powerful straight sword in-game.

120 Quality w/ Vitality, Knight or Warrior base: 39 Vigor, 35 Endurance, 35 Strength, 35 Dexterity and 30 Vitality for heavier fashions, weapons, or using heavier gear to reach poise breakpoints. Good build for quality-leaning weapons that rely heavily on hyper armor.

125 Strength Tank, Warrior base: 39 Vigor, 40 Endurance, 40 Strength, 50 Vitality, 10 Dexterity. Excellent build for utilizing strength weapons only and poise trading. Fairly limited weapon choice.

125 Pure strength, Warrior base. 39 vigor, 40 endurance, 66 strength, 10 dexterity, 25 vitality. Extremely high damage build. Difficult to use, but rewarding and satisfying. Fairly limited weapon choice.

125 Buffed weapon Glass cannon: Warrior Base: 26 vigor, 25 Endurance, 27 Strength, 40 Dexterity, 60 Faith. Incredible damage potential and pairs well with light rolls and Carthus Bloodring. Requires extreme grinding to set up if you want to use buff other than lightning blade. Attunement ring required. Very fun, but difficult to play and requires good usage of rolls to avoid being killed in a siingle combo.
