Invasions are more or less a terrible ratio of win/lose only if you don't play it smart or tryhard. You can forget about 'fun' builds and go for builds that can kill in a couple of hits or are suited for obscuring ring. You have a better chance on lower levels because summons are much more rare than meta levels where they are almost readily available.

>>165795071

Or just don't join PCFCBF's on /dsg/... cheating is really such a small, tiny segment of the overall PC population that you almost never run into them, especially if you avoid meta level aldrich invasions.

>>165795223

That's because at meta level (SL120-140) people have already beat the game so most of them are just going to be pro gank squads or pro lone hosts abusing the host advantages to the absolute maximum allowed. Good luck out-attritioning a lone host with tears, 15 estus, constantly running/rolling away with a SS and parry tool just turning-and-burning and parry one-shotting forever while easily maintaining his 1800-some-odd life, or summoner classes in a similar situation. Hope you enjoy using literally only one-shot builds because super high damage output is the only thing that's really viable and the host/phantoms have access to just as much broken one-shot shit if they want. Better be invading only at aldrich because good fucking luck beating a 1v3 at meta level unless people are just gonna walk into your sellsword DMB spin2win.

I mean granted I've done my fair share of SL130 aldrich invasions but it's mostly a shitshow. At low-mid levels you can get away with a lot more sorts of builds

It's the closest thing we'll get in the foreseeable future to DaS3 PvP that is actually competitive and balanced. Should effectively replace souls dueling entirely, invasions are still cool though.

Again, did you play the TA?

Have you literally ever played the game ever at all at any point in your life?

It's not Dark Souls 3. It's not even a little like Dark Souls 3. It's knights, and it's combat, and so you've automatically assumed it's Dark Souls. Get the fuck off it. Play the game. It plays absolutely nothing like Dark Souls, not even in a remote way. It's like saying "Gears of War will replace Dark Souls".

At low SLs you easily win with no skill needed. You need to gimp yourself to make them interesting, they got so boring I started using gimmick shit like tailbone or pontiff's scythe to keep them interesting, yet, most people still can't beat simple R1 spam. Just because it's not DaS chaos weapons tier, doesn't make them so much harder. Twinking still remains a crutch for players who need such help to win and I'm willing to bet if chain vanished and early raw weapons got nerfed but hosts summoning abilities also got nerfed, most twinks would give up without advantages to abuse.

Meta invasions get interesting because, like I said, no one holds back because they know not to, you actually can win around 50% of them(around how much I can, better players do even more) if you practice and abuse memorizing the level, areas to hide while using regen, hit and run tactics and so on, you can trump them by preying on their overconfidence and it's the sole place you can actually justify tryharding to the max.

>comparing a shitty class perk system to a From game

For Honor is like dark souls if you were completely limited to the starting classes only with no upgrade options and you had to team up on people in order to beat them rock-paper-scissors style.

I'm hoping that all the "hardcore pvp" players go to For Honor once it's out so that the majority can resume playing dark souls 3 as intended

Is DaS3 dead on PS4 or is literally everyone just over in Ashes Undead Matches?

>>165797312
That's only because their opponents are usually noobies, not because invaders really have an advantage while twinking. Any time you win as an invader ever, you're relying on the fact that the host doesn't feel like running to the boss fog or just lightrolling around while resummoning or waiting for blues. I'm not arrogant enough to say I could kill any other ds3 player, but I'm beyond certain that I could avoid anyone at all if I wanted, even people far better at the game than me. If you can do much as a host, you win, even against a twink. If you really can't get any phantoms and the bridge to the boss is cut or something, then I guess it's a stalemate, but outside of that any invader victory was permitted by the host regardless of the invader being a twink or not.

Dark Souls 3 has been pretty fucking alive on on PC these last few weeks so I assume PS4 is alive and well. They have bloodborne too though I guess.

>>165798543
>not because invaders get an advantage twinking
Twinking is a very big advantage and a non twink good player is very unlikely to win unless the twink themselves is bad. Running to the boss fog is very unlikely since on NG people still have plenty of enemies you can trap them with and you can always use the surge bait into r1 to trick them. At high SLs people ARE looking for fights. I never had hosts actually manage to escape into fogs unless the enemies were dead already or we fought near the door, both sogns you can use to BC if you find that likely

nearly every single playthrough I run to the boss fog without killing enemies for anything but specific loot drops at this point

The reason why its unlikely is only because hosts are stupid, not because it's hard. I assure you I could strip off all my armor and roll away from you forever, even if you had 50+ stamina advantage.

Yes but fun fact if you 2 hand it before you riposte, it doesn't. Don't think there's enough time to weapon swap, 2 hand, then riposte though, at least I've never pulled it off. If you're using the weapon you're gonna riposte with and don't have to swap though you can definitely do it.

Just drop the shield for a blessed caestus dude. You're not going to use the shield anyway since you need to 2-hand your UGS to meet the requirements. Unzip the caestus when you want to parry.

Also yeah, I advise a fast back-up weapon. In that case a shield MIGHT be ok if the back-up weapon is best 1-handed.

t. someone with 350+ hours of pure invading in DaSIII

>>165799963
as a twink you can't upgrade the weapon all the way, which means the blessed infusion won't give you 2 hp/s like something with built in regen

I agree that he'd be better off with a caestus and better weaponry, but he's already memeing as is and onehanding a UGS ever is a really obvious tell that you're going to parry

>>165799156
I'm defending doing them. Other SLs are too boring. If you want regular non easy mode invasions but non bullshit ones, do SL 70 on castle, archives, DLC and ADP.
Better yet, you can just go to Anor Londo/duke's

Meta invasions are full of tryhard shit. As I said, I like it because there's no mercy, on both sides. Hosts will cheese as hard as they can, as will invaders and everyone will use what they think is broken at least, so it's not a place to try and make GH or whips work. I've had fun moments we got a ganker to be left alone and all three of us unzipped uchis and a plow and chased him to death then pointed down together and also times I ran away for a lot of time from 3 guys before backup came. If you don't take Souls pvp seriously to the point of getting mad, like complaining about 3v1s and want the challenge, knowing you're going to be at disadvantage almost every time unless you catch a gank spank in progress, go for it. Get used to swapping cat ring mid chases, when to unequip things for fast rolls and everything else. You won't win often at first, but it feels really good when you do, more than just twinking.

>>165799760
Most players like you won't be invaded. The host, with friends, will often take their time even if familiar with the game. The solo ones are more likely to be unembered or offline to play through the game faster

>>165800441
Get etheral oak. The regen doesn't scale with upgrade level. It's also a great shield for SS

>>165800540
>Most players like you won't be invaded.
Wasn't saying otherwise. Most people who actually understand how easy it is to flee from an invader are going to move through the game before an invader actually gets matched with them. That doesn't change the fact that it's completely doable though; anyone who loses to an invader has noone but themselves to blame unless the bridge to maria/doggo got cut before they could do anything.

True, but the regen is insignificant anyway when you have ~6 ~+8 estus sippies that heal 50% of your HP per gulp.

Again, the shield will highly likely be useless since you're 2-handing your UGS. At least you can use the caestus to switch to and spam L2 when you're getting R1 spammed by straight swords. Shield is only useful when you're up against a katana dash-attack or spear spammer and you switched to your fast back-up weapon, but you won't really find those in the first 2 areas of the game.

But that's just me.

Replaying Dark 1, do you guys set the FPS to 60 or keep it at native 30?

>>165801443
I can run away forever even in the arena, I've been winning matches with a lightroll and great farron darts. Even if you're locked in a room together, it's easy to just dodge forever; worst case scenario is that you have to spend so much time dodging that you can't attack, but you don't need to attack to run to the boss fog.

>>165801465
Yeah, I should have remembered that. That's the precise reason why I went for 12 faith and flame arc on my twink instead of 12 str and the priestess ring for replenishment and/or blessed weapon.

30 is fine. 60 is smoother but when you do get framerate drops (and they are unavoidable) they will be a lot more dramatic usually, so it comes down to how much confidence you have in your hardware, you might want to drop the framerate cap for blighttown and sif.

At 57-60 INT, sage's crystal staff + L2 buff active does slightly more damage than a court sorcerer + L2 buff. The problem is the buff is so situational because it only helps when you know you won't be getting hit for the next few seconds and want to put out massive burst damage. Sage's L2 also costs more FP to cast.

How do I invade in Dork Souls II, and what are the consequences

File: Bone_Fist.png (4KB, 75x75px) Image search: [Google]

4KB, 75x75px

Holy shit why are there no fun weapons in DaS3

>>165805375
Red sign soapstone, no consequences.

Cracked red eye orb, adds 1 to your sin count. Over 10 sin and you can be auto-invaded by blue sentinels. They will lower your sin by 1 if you die to them. You cannot lower sin any other way.

Get cracked orbs by winning duels in the brotherhood of blood arena, or buying in NG+ for 10,000 souls each. Enter duels using tokens of spite, which you get from killing players you invade with Red Sign Soapstone or Cracked Red Eye Orb.

Having Sin also drops the scaling of Lost Sinner's Sword by 11 AR, though if you hit negative scaling it won't reduce damage further than base. Raw infusion makes it have 529 damage, so take the normal scaling you have, subtract 69. If it's still positive, then use it normally. If it's negative (2-4 sins, depending on how high your str/dex is) infuse raw.

So it usually goes:

Red sign > Kill host, get token of spite > Brotherhood of blood arena > Kill other player, get cracked eye orb > Invade, Kill host, get token of spite

etc. until you lose to a host or a brotherhood of blood member. Then you have to go back to using the red sign soapstone.

It would be the undisputed best UGS in the game if it wasn't for its bad moveset.

>Dogshit moveset.

Powerstance is where it really shines, because its one weakness (moveset) gets overwritten by the powerstance moveset, making it the best powerstance UGS in the game.

Otherwise, it's still pretty good as a low-level riposte weapon since you can get 95% of its max possible damage without scaling, and other riposte hardswaps (giant warrior club) require 40+ str to use. LSS can be 2handed for riposte at 16 / 18 strength and dex.

Been doing it since the DLC dropped and haven't been banned.

I want to do a theme playthrough of DS3, but don't have a friend on to twink my character, is there a way to cheat in ds3 for some gear that won't get me banned?

>>165808384
Scholar is a separate game. It runs at 60fps and uses directx11, making it run much better on most hardware. They also made a lot of changes, most of which are improvements, by adding NG+ content, integrating the DLC with the main game (incl. enemy invaders with DLC weapons) and smoothed out some of the more jarring progression issues (no more jumping down to the gutter required to get a branch if you want to get to shaded woods early, you can buy them instead).

They added some mini bosses and statues in front of hard areas so that players are guided along the intended path easier, and made some areas (like the bell towers) more optional by moving keys back into the main path instead of making you go through there instead.

They added more bonfire ascetics and red phantom invasions, too.

So all in all, you get more freedom on where to go, but you end up more committed to your chosen paths once you start using your branches and lockstones.

There is an overall change to most item descriptions too, to make the lore better, and a completely new final boss.

I think most people like SOTFS better but there are a few changes that break it for some people, like moving the bastille key out of the gargoyles, so that the gargoyles are no longer required to beat in order to unlock the bastille doors.

It already is. People just don't discuss LotF because who the fuck managed to play that shit all the way through

>>165809792
>using cheats to play through the game
If you can't beat the bosses then you're just going to get reamed in PvP. There's absolutely no point.

Duping or inserting items, sure. Some of the shit is ridiculously tedious to farm, and while it's lazy, no one would judge you. Having to cheat the game itself is just embarrassing.

>>165809792
Yes.

>>165809882
>because who the fuck managed to play that shit all the way through

Fair enough.

>>165809678
Nioh is only a "souls like" in terms of the setting and style. It has no customization, lore, or explorable RPG environments. It's a hack and slash game.

The only customization the game will have are visual distinguishers between players doing Co-op. So "pvp" is likely just a tacked on arena mode where you both control the same main character. Not like souls at all.

When will people fucking learn that "souls like" doesn't refer to every fantasy melee combat game...

Incomplete list of bullshit games people keep thinking are "souls likes"
>Lords of the Fallen (No gameplay customization)
>Nier (No gameplay customization)
>Eitr (No gameplay customization)
>Nioh (Minor, single-player-focused-only gameplay customization)
>For Honor (class-based customization only, no RPG mechanics, team oriented)
>Hyper light drifter (Different style, No customization, no PvP)
>Dragon's dogma (No multiplayer)
>God Hand (Different style, No Multiplayer, no RPG mechanics)
>Armored Core Verdict Day (Different style, Mostly guns with some melee, no RPG mechanics)
>Monster Hunter (No PvP, limited customization)

And none of them have invasions.

ACVD is the closest in terms of customization and balance to dark souls, Nioh (or dragon's dogma) is the closest in terms of gameplay.

The first company to figure out that you need heavy multiplayer focused customization, satisfying melee combat, AND basic RPG mechanics, you'll finally make a better game.

do you mean how we point out your shitposting? Or how you claim to be good when it took you MONTHS to even touch the chalices? Or how about when you think anyone that thinks your "waifu" doesn't look good you call them a troll? Is it because we laugh at your failing ego? Or how about how whenever someone comes up with something that goes against what you are spewing without any validation you claim they are a kid or a troll?

What exactly are you talking about?

inb4 something along the lines of "you're a troll"

>>165811102
Most people claim they want souls-like games, but what they really mean is "I want a melee multiplayer game where I can use a bunch of different weapons and each weapon plays differently"

The stuff that makes souls mechanically different from all the other games out there isn't really necessary to appeal to most of the base needs of the consumer. That's why other companies stick to either pure RPGs or pure hack and slash.

The fact that I played DaS1 on 360 or the fact the full game of Nioh isn't out yet, and alphas and betas don't give trophies. Etc.

>>165812383
We aren't talking about DaS1 here. It is known Nioh isn't out yet.

What about literally everything else I said?

SPECIFICALLY
About you constantly saying "axe is best" without trying all the weapons, taking MONTHS to complete a SINGLE chalice, not completing DaS2 until months after SotFS and claiming the entire game was trash, stating game mechanics that are blatantly false without testing (can't mid roll through more than 1 wog), saying that anyone that doesn't like your fire waifu is a troll, and the list goes on.

I honestly want to defend you because you DO give solid advance, but the times you are called out on something that IS wrong you get on a high horse spouting how shit the other person is or that they are a troll. Even when someone DOES try to defend you, you say you didn't even want to attempt to change how people view you by saying your interest was ironic. (The person compiling a list about your dislike for DS2)

You wouldn't be viewed as such a shitter if you stepped back and knew when you were wrong and admitted to it.

>>165812383
The reason people hate trips on 4chan is because you gain nothing from the profile accountability. All posts are deleted, there's no upvotes and shit, so all you're doing is exposing yourself to their hate while getting nothing of your own. Eventually you'll stay dumb shit and you won't have your anon to protect you.

You just happen to say more dumb shit than anyone else in this thread AND have a trip on.

Also, chalices are not part of the main game. They are an optional side area. Not doing optional stuff does not mean I didn't complete the game.

>>165812864
To be fair stupid people can make themselves notorious on this site even without a trip, generals make this especially easy since you're posting (and sometimes playing) with largely the same people every day, eventually we'd know him regardless and most people would recognise his posting style at a glance, the trip just makes it easier to hide his retarded bullshit.

Never moved it, it was never set. Nioh is not out yet and that is true. I didn't say you haven't played it. This is one of the issues that I didn't mention but you now bring up. You add random information to an argument which holds no bearing until you can go "ahahah you're a shitter because I said 'x' 4 posts ago"

>>165815303
At 30 ATT, you shouldn't be running out of fp as long as you actually have a spell with good fp/damage ratio and not just spamming CSS. I highly recommend Great Deep Soul for casual trash cleaning. Low FP cost, low stamina cost, extremely fast cast speed and it tracks so well that players have to actually focus on dodging it instead of just strafing to the side. It's also a really good distraction for charging them with Flashsword while they're making sure they avoid the orb.

Plus FaP means both more health which mages desperately need, and stamina which is also important since some spells cost as much stamina as a greatsword R2.

Wait for him to break the crystal, run behind him and land some attacks while he is still stunned.

If you don't get it in one, disengage, and run to the fog gate and wait for him to come to you. This causes his tail to be in the center of the room. Just look up and watch for his head to do the tell for the laser sweep. That should give you enough time to get behind him and land one or two hits before he can do his next attack.

>>165820146

Very high output for low effort input. It's not even close to the best weapon, but elitists find ways to look down on it because you don't have to twink and grind for hours to get it to a usable level.

>>165821524
AR only accounts for a single weapon, or a single R1. An L1 swings both weapons which means 2 ticks of that AR are being dealt. That's why twinaxes hit so hard despite only having around 380 AR, because it's dealing 380+380 AR of pure standard damage.

So if you can run DS3 no problem then you absolutely can make DS1 run at least decently

Where do i go from here? My zwei barely scales with stats anymore.

>>165827290
More endurance and adaptability

Why am I so fucking bad in DS 3?

In PvP I get fucking smacked by even NPC's. Even in PvE I can't kill most of enemies or most of bosses without co-op.-.-

>>165827437
stop using faggot smiley faces and you'll probably improve

>>165827437
Well,how many hours do you have? And what's your setup? I also recommend you finding your favorite and weapon class you're best at.

What do you mean by setup?
I don't have any favorite class or weapon because no matter what I use some monster or guy kills me gorillions of times when using that weapon. Tried sorcerer and pyro but it's boring. Used so far quality build for main character.
>>165827572
I tried a lot of weapons and I don't like any.

>>165827638
Show your build. I was absolutely terrible at das3 until I found my favorite weapon class; spears. I still am very bad even with the most meta and easy weps. But I can destroy with polearms. I recommend you just try sl120 and try a weapon class that matches your playstyle

First of all, your build is unoptimized. What is your starting class? The basics of this game are just learning how to space and learning how to punish. The build I posted is minmaxed for quality along with the armor, this should give you a slight edge in fights pve and pve: but I reckon that that's the least of your problems.

What platform are you? If you're pc I can spar with you and teach you some basics.

>>165829197
Warrior Can't respect until I start another walkthrough.

I'm on PC.

>>165828983
Have you tried learning the game instead of switching weapons and complaining while getting carried by phantoms?

>>165829364
"Learning game" how? And no I didn't.

>>165829327
Oh, that's the perfect class. I recommend you start using this setup of rings and items. If you want, I can co op with you until you reach rosaria for respeccs and then we can spar in arena if you want or red phantom summons.

>>165826808
haha

>>165829459
As I said, I need to complete the game and then respec there's no other way.

I use similar setup of rings.

im new to souls. Is the game more balanced around pve or pvp?

Starting a pyro in ds3. Never played a caster before. Any advice?
Which spells do I use? Will I need melee or is full -ranged build viable?

>>165829404
By playing it the way it's supposed to be played instead of summoning help you absolute fucking retard.

Here's my steam if you decide that you're up for some sparring. I can give you pointers that are more accurate if I can see how you fight.

>>165829562
neither
if it was balanced around pve straight swords and bleed wouldnt be as hilariously broken as they are
if it was balanced around pvp casters wouldnt need two rings to do damage and dark would be worth a shit

First time playing that game. After the first boss there a bunch of eggs asking for warmth.
Plz tell me I can sit on them or something?
Or will I be able to come back later?

>>165829721
Not really sure how this will help but whatever.

>>165828678
She says multiple times that she exists purely to serve you, which apparently includes going so far as to literally end the world together. I doubt she'd mind if the Ashen One took out his/her sexual frustrations on her body, since she's used to literally being hacked to death to test how much damage a new weapon does.

my system got fucked and i was wondering if can i just paste my save files into DaS3 save folder or is there something i should do first, by that i mean if i should be in offline mode or something?

Here's an optimized pyro build, feel free to change it up. If you're gonna go all ranged, you're not gonna have a good time in pvp. If you're going all spell then at least do the pyro blackflame combo. Which is blackflame->combustion(using parting flame), because parting flame gives moves a mini combustion and you'll end up doing 800+ damage in a combo. Black serpent has great tracking and combos with vestiges and most other spells. Feel free to add a talisman for miracles if you want. Fire surge is great for poking enemies down.

>>165830051
WTF now my game reset OMFG. Can I go back?

>>165829932
I'll try to give you pointers when we pvp. But first, just choose a random weapon that seems cool to you or is the most fun.

>No there isn't.
Ok, maybe not *every* death, but quite a lot. In Dark Souls most deaths are the players fault, so the player can walk away with some kind of lesson from it to get a little better.

If you blame the game for "cheating" every time you die, you'll probably never learn and would be best playing something else.

>>165830206
Nope, start again, but harder.

You can trade items with them.

>>165830390

It's not really harder because your character is also more powerful.

I was trying to get every item in the game but I just made it tons harder on myself I guess

>>165830365
Okay, the earliest pointers is the with any Kat, running r1 is your best attack. If you play in annoying playstyle which is a passive guy who runs left and right waiting for a chance to get a running r1 in then that is the most optimal way but is the most boring. A more fun playstyle is to aggressively use running r1,rolling r1 and mix it up with a hold (either l2r1 for the slash or l2r2 for the parry). Your r2s are crap, don't bother much with them.

Shields are the bane of all kats, so I recommend you have a human pine resin or a dark uchi for the turtles.

Domhnall of Zena sells you Gwyn's armor, the Great Lord's Set.
You can offer the Soul of Gwyn, Lord of Cinder at the Altar of Sunlight as a rank +1 member of the Warrior of Sunlight covenant to receive the Sunlight Spear miracle.
Rite of Kindling is removed; however, kindled bonfires retain their status.
You cannot level up until you get to Firelink Shrine, so try not to lose the souls received from Gwyn, Lord of Cinder before you get there.

I've played DkS3 extensively for a month after release, and just now came back to play the DLC.

I have no idea what's are the meta weapons right now and apparently poise is back during hyperarmor or something. Could someone bring me up to speed on what the fuck's up right now?

My main character is SL100 Black Knight Glaive user.

>>165830657
That's what I do but not like this helps. Most use Greatswords which have hyperarmor. Didn't see much shields users but most can easily parry my attack.

In my past 5 invasions in the woods I haven't seen a single host. All the worlds were normal with no enemies killed, with all bonfires unlit, with no host in them as far as I could find. BCd out every time, it wasn't the same host either.

In the very last one I found a single gold phantom. H ewas standing at the boss fog, with no host nearby. Like 2 minutes after killing the phantom, the host somehow died.

Is something going on?

Even when you give her eyes and she gets some part of her personality back she still follows your every wish and only wants to serve you. She's probably the biggest waifu bait in series because she's loyal to you exclusively instead of some mission like it was with previous level up girls. Hell, her very last dialogue addresses to you as well.
If anything, she's going to be happy.

The thing is about greatswords,you can threaten their attacks with a hold because they don't know if it's gonna be a parry or an attack, it makes most players "stutter" in their attacks and is great for mixups. But greatswords are an amazing weapon class with their hyperarmor,damage, speed. Maybe try the chaosblade if you don't wanna be meta or washing pole if you don't care, but be warned that you will get more point downs. Your best bet is to outspace most weapons and run in for the attacks. Leo ring works great with a running r1 heavy player solely for those counter hits

>use a raw halberd +2 at base stats required to use it 2h
>fight some dude in pvp
>91 damage per hit counter damage no leo ring

>decide to try out this astora sword I have, made it raw because I heard that's a good meme
>dont even have the faith required to wield it, lmao who cares

the revelation

Tried Chaos Blade and usually people tend to roll more when I land attack, since it counts as hit and I lose hp.

>>165831757

If I wanted to make a normal mode stomper where i 1 shot everything basically what class would i make?

the problem is?

Washingpole is ultra faggotry like Estus and I don't really enjoy being cancer.

do you like big swords? small swords? weeb shit? spears? What do you like aesthetically? There's no way you bought the game without liking the setting at all, right?

>>165832058
>halberd has less reach then ss

Nigga what are you on?

>>165832184
I guess Dragonslayer Spear, Dragonslayer Greataxe, Uchigatana since I used it in all DS's and couple of straight swords but I suck with them. I don't really enjoy using greatswords or ugs, halbers or any magic/pyromancy.

>>165832260
have you ever actually used these weapons?
Whenever you swing your straight sword onehanded your character takes a huge step forward with each step, making the effective range much longer than the halberds stabs

>>165832340
Well just use them. Spear is a great and fun weapon in both pvp and pve, try to take full advantage of the moveset and not be too predictable and you'll be fine.

Why do people do that? I get invaded all the time, sometimes by multiple sources (faithful, reds, mads) and sometimes I even manage to defeat them, it's part of the experience. I don't know what people expect when they start playing the THIRD game of the series, when the past games were just like this.
