Farron GS is extremely gimmicky for PvP, low damage and reliability on one attack that can be parried or blocked along with shit R2s and a mediocre parry really makes it suffer.

Wolf Knight Greatsword is one of the best greatswords in the game. It's the second longest behind Onyx Blade tied with Wolnir's Holy Sword, and has the second highest pure physical damage of its class at 40/40 behind the Black Knight Sword. Its moveset is basic since the R2s aren't that good but the basic greatsword R1s combined with its range and damage make is a fantastic option. The WAR1 spin is good up close when catching rolls or forcing trades since it has HA, but the R2 spinjump is garbage since even when it connects the hitstun on it allows most players to roll away before it actually damages them and the recovery usually leaves you open for a backstab.

>>164997262

Go for 40 Endurance and don't invest anything in Vitality, you will not need it at all with Sellswords unless you really want to carry more shit right on you at all times.

Any tips to win ladder wars?

Do you people doing boss invasions only encounter hosts that have summons with them or do you also get loners as well?

Newfag to DS3 and all weapons that aren't a GS here.

Stamina and Equip load being split between two stats is fucking with me, what kind of ratios should I got for here? Pic related, my character so far, those L1s on the dual blades are fucking tasty.

>>164997732
Oh shit, I deleted my post to pop it in here. Thanks for the pointers. How should I prioritise End over Dex? The gains seem so minimal now without the added carry weight.

I'm trying to get the Rose of Ariandel at SL 58. Could somebody put a sign outside Freide's? PSN

>>164997732
>Reliability on one attack
Not neccesarily, the r1's are still good for trades with light weapons. And follow up an r1 with an l1 catches quite a few people. Only problem I have with farron gs is going against other ultra users.

>>164998034
If you're using favor +2, your 37th point will give you 4 points of endurance while the 38th only gives 2 (contrary to what MM says). You should have over 25 for sure unless maybe you're a caster, even my sl 26 does. Vigor is more important than offensive stats though. At SL 35 you might be able to use the prisoner's chain, but I don't know if this is just "where you are now" or if it's your end level. You don't need any vitality whatsoever with SSTB though.

Farron GS users in ganks are the most annoying things on the planet and deserve every bad thing that happens to them in life.

>>164998034

Get END to 20 first, and then get Dex to 40 or 60 depending on if you want to make this a pure Dex build or not and then focus on END to 40.

>>164998051

Wolnir's Holy Sword range is actually tied with Wolf Knight's in basic R1s despite what the hitbox may show you. Its sub Claymore AR and worthless R2s and WA still makes it an objectively worst choice compared to the best greatswords.

>>164998158

R1s on a UGS are good for trading if you're reactive enough but the low damage of the Farron makes them very wanting. Plus the R1s can always be parried since it is always 'one-handed.' The R1s are only really useful for R1>L1 combos if you land or they try and get a backstab after rolling.

>>164997443
In the age of Playstation, the games were unformed, shrouded by fog.
A land of armored machines, moonlight swords, and everlasting sequels.
But then there was Demon’s Souls.
And with Demon’s Souls, came disparity.
Guns, and Swords
Single, and Multiplayer.
And of course, Sony and Bandai.

Then, from the Dark- They came.
And found the Dark Souls within the gamers.
Tanimura, the First of the Designers
The Bandai of Namco, and her daughters of marketing.
Miyazaki, the Lord of Sunlight, and his faithful developers.
And the pygmy fanbase, so easily forgotten.

With the strength of the PS3, they challenged the gamers.
Gwyn’s mighty atmosphere peeled apart their stone skepticism.
The marketers weaved great controversy.
Tanimura unleashed a miasma of numbers and stats.
And Shibuya the Spineless, betrayed his own. And the games were no more.

Thus began the age of Kadokawa.
But soon, the Souls will fade, and only spiritual successors will remain.
Even now, there is only DLC.
A man sees not games, but only spiritual successors.
And amongst the new releases are seen carriers of the accursed "Souls Formula"

No they will be fixed because it's a totally unintended mechanic to be able to be invaded into bossfights. Although personally I hope that Bamco's not doing anything because it costs money to push updates on consoles and they'll have the DLC2 patch coming up.

I bought DS 1 in the steam sale as I finally have a none toaster PC, should I play it blind, or will I just get frustrated/stuck in grind hell?

Pontiffposters are kind of baffling. Did Dark Souls 3 really fail this hard to produce memorable and story relevant bosses that people latched onto an extremely aesthetic but otherwise a pretty mid-tierish boss?

>>164999591

He's a fun and visually distinctive boss that once you get into the lore is the most outright antagonistic and evil person in the Souls story. Basically he's the Sheev of the series.

>>164999591
Because he killed trapfu and locked up another waifu.

>>164999591
overall edge probably
He's got dual wielding, fire and magic, teleports behind you, etc.

Why did they think healing being completely unpunishable in anyway would be okay?

>>164999591
Because he's sexy

>>164998890
>totally unintended mechanic

yeah but all of the players generally agree that it should literally be a core mechanic for purples since otherwise there's almost no point to play as a purple since they're just invaders that almost never get to finish invasions since they get kicked out early.

What did DaS1 or 2 have?
DaS1 had O&S, but those were even more irrelevant.
Arty had pretty much a whole DLC dedicated to him, which, duh, made him a bit more relevant but it still boils down to "a powerful yet corrupted knight".
>otherwise a pretty mid-tierish boss
Much like the DaS1 gwyn, he's pretty great if you avoid cheesing him. Doesn't really make the boss objectively any better, but he becomes heaps more enjoyable.
Also he IS kind of lore relevant but needs more memes. He should've been the meme talking boss, not Oceiros though. Or better yet, both.

I don't think you know what the word means. What from should do is make it a part of the game, so that they can balance it. The best way I can think this would be balanced is if the boss invader was only for the boss fight, had up to 4 blue estus and no orange and could only invade if the player had more than 1 white/gold

I have to pump myself up to play Dark Souls and I'm a nervous wreck when I'm playing thus I've never touched 2, 3, or Bloodborne.

Would reducing tracking on some melee weapons result in a decrease of r1 spam?

Playing DS3 after Bloodborne made me think again how shit like the darksign sky could've been more interesting if it would happen earlier (like after getting 2 of the 4 lords) and the game was less linear so there'd be some more point to traveling the levels after the Darksign sky gets put up. Also, area spawns changing slightly after the darksign sky happens like black phantom enemies or special assassin type enemies spawning after the dark sign sky happens?

It's the best world for exploring because of its interconnected levels. You have to plan your routes pre-lordvessel. If you turn your brain off you'll end up lost.
3 is for adrenaline if you don't have a PS4.

>>165005080

Why didn't they keep the slow estus recovery from ds2? Sure the slow af drinking animation might be a tad too much but I thought the slow hp rise will make players be careful of using their estus when it's not safe. If you wanted to, you tank a attack if you chug fast enough.

Did anyone like Zullie check with CE what giant faces look like behind their masks in DaS3? With normal camera you kind of see a hole there, but I could never get the right angle to confirm.

>Why didn't they keep the slow estus recovery from ds2?
Because people complained and said that slow estus double chug is somehow more OP than the instant DaS1 estus.
Thats what fanboyism does to your franchise.

The "covering" effects in DaS2 were all very meh, all it does is add a filter from your feet upward based on how much you've been rolling, and then gradually diminish it. It didn't look natural at all most of the time.

Because the games are planned with the PvE in mind first and foremost instead of balance for you pvp nerds.

>>165006095
The slow estus chug was annoying as fuck and doesn't work in a game as mobile as DS3.

However, I think that they should've made Estus either have immediate effect and allow you to move while estusing but not both.

>>165006658

phantom range

>>165007676
What's wrong with it? You warp to deacon bonfire kill like 5 enemies which 4 of them are deacons. The sitting guys never aggro unless you attack so souls recovery is easy.

>>165007638
You forgot
>shitting on PvP
Also DaS2 did have it's very own poison "swamp" variant, but the poison aspect of it could be largely overlooked.
>>165007959
Technically, due to how ADP worked, I think DaS2 had technically more """phantom range""" issues in general, but it's kind of an obligatory stat to level up.

The poison swamp thing is From recycling their ideas from game to game. I kinda like their traditions, they bring consistency into the franchise outside of Valley of Defilement and Blighttown the poison swamps have been kinda lame. Even Nightmare frontier wasn't enough of a dick punch.

Was there some sort of time gap between the whole first flame being discovered and Gwyn and Co. fucking up the dragons? Like was there some sort of civilization established beforehand where Gwyn actually had his knights get all that equipment and such?

He absorbed a firekeeper during his research.

Is it one dedicated faggot or multiple?

Anyone else really like the sound of barefoot in ds3? Running around firelink shrine and I think they really nailed the sound of barefoot on the stone floor.

starting; tell me if the music is too loud

He's very blue as a hollow. I really hope his skin color isn't fucked when I go human

>>165012420
Only thing that hints at that is the giant blacksmith. The Lords likely enslaved the giant race to make Dragonslayer gear and such. Hard to tell if that was before or after, though.

>>165013010
Having trouble with Rom? Get a Tonitrus. Play patiently and kill all the spiders.
Or just come back later. You can get 22% cursed gems from the red aura fatty guarding the level of layer 2, IIRC.

I've seen your kind, time and time again.
Every little girl must be fucked. Every secret must be unearthed.
Such is the conceit of the self-proclaimed seeker of loli.
But in the end, you lack the stomach.

There is no path... beyond the scope of Cute, beyond the reach of Lewd. What could possibly await us? And yet we seek it, insatiably. Such is our fate.

Powerstanced Blue Flames.
Might want to CE them in if you only plan on the one PvE playthrough though.

What are people at this FC running at? I think I may have misjudged which character to take in to this.

Do you mean SL? 120. But there was a SL 80 doing alright.

>>165014561
120-125ish

>>165014561
we're always 120(+5) what the fuck

anyone whose within 20 levels of that gets a pass (with slight disdain), but anyone with a blue square is a SL five million giganigger that needs to not
