You should think about the wyvern as part of the level. That whole "boss fight" is just walking and fighting in a decent area really. That's what they went for. They just gave him a hp bar.

I finally beat Demon's Souls after playing through all the other games. I liked it but for some reason I just don't wanna replay it like I do the other games.

Hilariously every boss was pretty easy except the Maneaters which I consider the most difficult fight in the series (not in a good way)

>Have to be beaten with the stormruler, you can get is from greirat or something
i'd recommend having the stormruler stuck in the cave underneath but also have the tree not aggro unless you have it in the inventory (as it senses threat)
>>Wolnir
>Remove bracelets, make him slightly faster, remove skeleton party summon
instead, have the bracelets remove 1/4th of the hp they remove but breaking each bracelet doesn't let wolnir use one of his powers
>>Aldritch
>Keep as it is
give him a toxic belch attack and a couple of stomp attacks (like the slimes) for the first phase, keep the boipucci for the second. can summon aldrich faithfuls. (i also have a more detailed rework somewhere but not readily available, if anyone asks i'll look for it and post that)

Why do ultra weapons feel so underwhelming in PvE and PvP? Is it just because I suck, or do you have to work that much harder to make them work?

I was using the Battle Axe and the AGS for a while in both PvE and PvP while going through NG, and the BA felt so much more powerful in PvE while being easier to land hits with in PvP.

Does it have high damage for its moveset? If yes, there's a good weapon.

>>
>>166284028
SoC isn't the previous firelinkers, SoC is the essence of the first flame manifesting itself in the forms it knew best; the guys who fed it. SoC's strength is directly proportional to the strength of the first flame and we all know it's weak as shit now. Saying AO killed CU is kinda like saying CU killed prime Gwyn.

Maneaters on NG+ was a truly horrific experience but I will always remember it fondly.

Sadly, it's true. I've just for the most part stuck to more traditional weapons that I felt "comfortable" with, like straightswords and regular greatswords. I very rarely used any ultra weapons.

I'm not bad at the game, it's just I don't experiment much.

>Greatwood

What sense does that make to change that fight completely? The fight is already unique enough.

>Abyss Watcher
>Impossible to parry or backstab
Let's just make all the bosses unparryable, because that is fun.

>Wolnir
>Remove bracelets, make him slightly faster, remove skeleton party summon
You want to turn him into a generic arms and head boss?

>Yhorm
>No stormruler, bigger arena
The area you fight him in is fine, the fight is more fun without stormruler, I guess they could just remove the one that is conveniently lying in the arena and that shitters would have to rely on Siegward's

>Dancer
>More HP, less damage on combos
You're fucking kidding here, you want that fight to be easier and take longer? You're an idiot.

>Dragonslayer
>Remove adds throwing shit, make him way more aggressive
Why would the butterflies just let you fight the armor without intervening?

>Oceiros
>Make him able to break branches. Remove charge with no startup
Yes for fixing the exploit, which is unintentional and not a fight mechanic, no on the charge.

>Champion Gundyr
>Make him even more aggressive and fast. Give him a parry. Imparriable.
>You can get his Bardiche stuck on a part of the arena by luring his attack, he then changes to a boxing/muay thai moveset
Why would you remove a parry from a boss that can't be riposted anyway, makes no sense. Also that last part was fucking retarded.

>Ancient Wyvern
>Remove from the game
Go fuck yourself.

>Nameless King
>Phase 1 has only to be fought once. Make phase 2 way more agressive, almost as much as Champ.
No checkpoints during bossfights is fucking retarded idea and you should feel bad for suggesting it. The only reason bed of chaos had them, was because they realized they fucked up with that fight.

>Sif season 2

You can say what you like. I just didn't really care to experiment much. I'd rather just stick to one or two characters.

Doesn't mean I don't want to now. It's not that I'm struggling, it's just when the damage from my AGS isn't much higher at all than my BA, I try to find the point of using it. Stunlock combos are nice, but most enemies I'm fighting are too scared to come close. Maybe if I had a "better" ultra weapon or simply went full into Str and dropped my Dex for more End so I could swing more than twice.

I'm not scared to admit I'm not flexible, though.
>>
>>166285625
CONTRARIAN?
The guy want's to make the fights easier and drag on on the three bosses that are the most difficult.

And Champion fight is fine without some retarded muay thai shit.

You're fucking retarded, most of his list is about altering some of the more unique the bosses into generic ones and making fights easier and drag on longer.

Throwing knives as a supplementary weapon sounds fun. What's the point of them, besides chip damage and pressuring people too scared to get close?

It's just a gameplay feature. The only issue is that since Souls makes deaths "canon" instead of just reloading the last save point makes it harder to justify. But then, a lot of regular non hollow enemies respawn for no reason, not everything needs lore reasons since gameplay is far more important

No, originally it was a live baby that you could deal massive damage to and stumble Oceiros.

In second phase he was using the baby to shield himself.

Hey guys, I am doing a run of DS2 after finishing DeS DS1, I started out as a sorc since I thought I might as well give it a shot since all my runs were Sword / Sword and Shield.

Thing is magic feels sucky so far, annoying shooting a spell and backing off like a bitch.

What can I do to remedy this? I am already SL 50 and I don't feel like starting over, any build that starts as a Sorc but is more warrior oriented?

>>166290150
pick a weapon, a magic longsword should work fine, and just get enough stats to use it, then build like a regular mage, maybe with a little more hp. the vast majority of your damage will still come from your int, as your weapon will scale with it and then you'll put a magic buff on it, which adds a flat sum and then a % increase in ds2.
you also need a little less adp investment since att gives you some (although less) AGL.

Int/Str or Int/Dex, you'll also need ADP for that Agility. Generally you can get a light weapon that doesn't require a lot of stats to use and infuse it with magic so it scales off Int. You can also go with enchanted to make it deal physical damage but scale off Int, in case you are fighting magic resilient enemies.

Magic users really do need to rely on magic a lot though. It can make some bosses a lot easier. You can also buff your weapon with a magic buff when fighting a boss, if you don't want to use spells.

Is this the sad ending, or the happy ending for Anri? She died optimistic, potentially unaware, but never achieved her goal of slaying Aldritch. But if she does, she finds out that Horace was killed - or, if you didn't kill him, her dear friend kills her. In the end she will go hollow if she survives.

Which way is the, "happy" ending for Anri?

Storm King is a gimmicky fight, so if you don't figure that out and try and figure the gimmick out, it can be hard.

How dead is the low level online on the PS4 right now?

Also, how much would I be gimping myself by playing without the DLC?

I'm thinking of getting this for my PS4 now that it's cheap.

exactly. end of fire brings the true age of dark, setting the world back to its natural course. lord of hollows usurps the fire so that noone can link it again but also won't die. He puts the world on hold so he can rule over it without opposition

>>166299082
there is. the problem is that "hexes" are considered dark pyros, dark sorceries and dark miracles, which get buffed by witch+swamp, bellowing+young and firstborn+morne respectively. And since you don't have 7 ring slots (7th for sage), hex builds are kind of out of the way. But anything dark scales like pyros, balanced int/fai, and need 40/40 in those stats, whereas sorceries and miracles need 60 in their respective stat. Also, any dark class doesn't have enough spells and the ones it has aren't good enough to justify a build of their own, focused on those. Pyro is lucky because it has the same scaling as dark, so pyromancers can use dark pyros with impunity
For sorcerers and clerics to do the same, they need to sacrifice a few more stats and go at least 60/20 on their primary/secondary stats and they'll still be heavily suboptimal

So I've done this Gundyr fight on 8 different deprived characters now, and it honestly feels like luck when I win. He can two shot you with almost any attack and your offense is lacking and you only have 3 estus and the 5 firebombs. Not sure if I'm missing something here, but I just can't seem to guarantee victory.

Chip away at him until he fully transforms. As he's transforming, don't use the bombs just yet. You do overall less damage to him while trying to hit him while transforming. Once he's full transformed he usually always starts with a jumping up to slam down attack, that should be easy to dodge. Now, start whippin' those firebombs at him.

I actually completely lack experience with firebombs, so I always seem to get hit for over half my life bar every time I try and his snake head has a better range than the bomb. It's a pretty frustrating fight for deprived if you ask me. Is it a problem that I'm 2hing it? I don't really use the weapon art because while it does do heavy damage to him, I never seem to be able to be in a state to not get counter. Even the chipping you mentioned isn't consistant because his weapon is the size of half the battlefield. I beat him already, but I just don't get this guy at all.

I find it helps to stay up next to him while constantly strafing him and just dodging when necessary. He definitely has the "range" advantage hence why I prefer being up next to him. Plus when you're close, your firebombs won't miss.

I do stay close, because generally I hug the ass of every boss in this game, but he weapon can hit for like 250 degrees around him from his right side, which doesn't expose much but his left back, but also he has that grab or punch, I can't remember which since I haven't been hit by it in so long, that makes you have to change up on him. It's a case where I know that I need to get good but I don't fundamentally understand how. Also I think I'm afraid of his second form since I rarely if ever have estus then and somehow his range manages to get longer. Generally the only consistency I have with guaranteeing victory is that I need to hit him a lot in a short period of time in the second form to make him drop to his knee, and then do a charge R2 and that should finish it, if not, firebomb. I don't really understand that mechanic in general and I can only think of him, the dragon nameless king rides, crocodogs, and spiderfucks that actually has it.

I mean, I probably could have done that better, but I'm still new at invading, and I got my Bloodlust (still need 1 more Dex with the Milkring) so I guess I'm happy. Funny thing is, the host could have tried to switch to Blue Sentinels (or BC me out since I was doing the boss invade glitch), but I guess he was too new to understand.

Question for other invaders, how much easier does it get once you have Obscuring Ring? I'm doing a quality build so no Hidden Body.

Not in 2 its not. I'm a magicfag who suffered through the horror of trying to make a pure sorcery build work. It sucks in the really early game, gets pretty good in the mid game, then gets untenably shit in the late game.

Every single enemy in all of the crown DLCs have pretty large health pools and MASSIVE resistances. Its pure suffering for a caster.

Magic sucks if you don't look at the numbers and optimize, it's the strongest PvE build in the game though, with the highest DPS. You can get a +5 Magic Staff of Wisdom or a +5 Sunset Staff within the first two hours of the game, plus the best projectile spells (soul spear and dark orb)

That should carry you through the whole game until the DLC, when you just swap your dark/magic weapon for an enchanted one.

Combustions always useful, but not as snappy as it once was.

Black Serpent is good for mixups, though honestly Chaos Fireball is the best pyromancy. If the enemy takes the lava damage its the strongest pyromancy, and its cast speed is surprisingly quick. Its only downside is its 2 slot requirement.

I also really like Profaned Flame, but any dolt can dodge it all day.

Only if you think about burst DPS as the only kind that matters. Yeah you can do enormous damage per shot, but you only get a handful. A brainless STR build can do damage that's technically inferior, but they can do it all day.

There isn't. Thankfully the boss is not the sort of thing you'll need more than one shot to beat.
>>
>>166307804
there is one around the middle. but look around and experiment with falls, you can get to the boss in less than a minute from the start of the catacombs
>>
>>166307709

It reduces base damage of the weapon, it reduces the Str/Dex scaling, and it grants Luck scaling. If you're hollow (which, honestly, you should be if you're going to use a Hollow infusion) you also get bonus Luck (+5 per infusion at +10) when wielding it, so more scaling and can also get away with lower Luck.

It's not bad. You can also buff it.

depending on what the DLC brings, it might even warrant continuing development. for some reason, i get this feeling that whatever in the DLC will add some extreme longetivity to the game

My favorite videogame settings are Souldborne and STALKER and I think it's due to the fact that both settings combine believable and realistic settings with mystical elements, are bleak but not grimdark and feature scenery gore porn, a lot of dilapidated and run-down environments. Both settings also have a lot of hints to areas that aren't directly depicted in the games and as such stimulate the imagination to picture the mentioned-only areas and how they're like. The way the games use that is adding to the feeling of believability of the game world, that there's a bigger game world out there.

Not that guy but I keep hearing this, do gank squads of 3-4 people generally let you throw a charm in middle of a gangbang? And even if they do can't the host can just roll around and wait it off? I know most gankers are retarded but still.

>>166315416
>>166315413

The only problem with soul memory is that it made the game slightly harder if you were bad at the game. But if you were -really- bad it actually allowed you to never get invaded.

Lack of full eye orb is still a problem, but without it the SL-based brotherhood arena would be completely devoid. The moving of the bastille key away from the bell covenant was also a bit of an issue with SOTFS.

What they should have done was allowed unlimited attempts at the brotherhood arena, with a cracked eye orb as a reward, then made tokens of spite the covenant upgrade item. This would let you invade without having to waste SM on orbs and without making the arena dead.

IIRC, it didn't get fixed until after BB was out. Now, DaS3 is out too. Basically, it was not introduced until it was no longer relavent.

I played through SotFS, and use the Agape ring to cap my soul memory in the supposed hot zone. I didn't get a single player invasion the entire time.

I understand what you mean, but when I say ganksquads I also mean people specifically doing pvp in a group, they have no desire to progress through the level.

So the only options are to crystal out or fight through all their estus/punish them. It's not impossible but it's still shit. I used to love fighting ganksquads in the other games, here with the estus change it's not much fun at all.

The duels are a skill check for invaders. If you can't win a 1v1 you don't get the right to gank other players. It makes invaders more of a threat due to skill, not their equipment

>>166317070
Oh look, a tripfag that doesn't know anything about girls.

A tomboy is a girl that enjoys activities that are not ladylike. In the case of anon, it's probably going around fighting bosses wearing armor.

Tomboys aren't necessarily cocky, they might act like that to offset the fact they're not expected to be doing something "boyish"

So, if a tomboy were wearing plate armor, she would care MORE about practicality of the armor and actually defense, because that's what plate armors are for, than looking slutty.

But what the fuck would you know, you jack off to footballs with wigs.

it references the gutter. blighttown's planks are supported by the stone walls around and are made in a logical fashion, even shoddy as they are. the gutter has 30 meter long poles supported by nothing that don't twist or turn at all, like they have no flexibility. blighttown even incorporates the shoddiness in the whole feel of the place with the swaying bridges

>Hunter can parry heals and is fast as fuck.
The hunter has never tanked a hit. His hardest-core armor is paper thin. All his techniques revolve around evasion and dodging and being aggressive to make up for damage if he does get hit.

Where as any other souls game with shields you can build your protagonist to wear heavy as shit armor and hold up a """shield""" one handed that is actually closer akin to a fucking wall. AND he can block all damage with it.

Hunter is undeniably the weakest in terms of physical strength. Which "strongest" denotes. Now as for "best" I think it's hunter. Is anything comparable to the bosses in BB?
>>

Balder side sword or longsword. Although straight swords aren't really that ridiculous in DaS1.

Whats the point of invading in ds2? You don't even get an effigy from it.

>>166317752

So I'll be honest, I absolutely despised meeting ganks in 2. Warmth + greatshields, endless lifegems, and your not being safe in backstabs/ripostes meant that I never beat a single gank in 2.
At the same time, if there's a strategy to it, let me know since I actually don't mind getting better at the game.

Hunter has Hyper Armor on some attacks, just like Ashen Ones, and can never be stunlocked for more than two hits.

The hunter is far from weak. Also, the best defense is a good offense.

The others have shields. The Hunter has a Gatling Gun and multiple Cannons.

And the guy said that he'd never done anything particularly strong. I'd say hefting several hundred pounds of object qualifies. I'm not saying its better than what other protags do,I'm just saying its evidence that the Hunter is inhumanly strong on at least a similar level.

Depends on your SM.

If you want to invade Heide's, you want about 50k soul memory.

This is probably the twinkiest twink build possible in the game.

Actual stats are:
>34 Vigor (1926 Hp!)
>15 Endurance (123 stamina)
>14 Vitality
>16 Adp
>4 int
>7 int
>16 str
>16 dex

aka, you have a SL70 build at SL40 SM.

Infuse the estoc with dark since no one has dark defense at that level and hardswap flynn's ring with southern ritual band and dark weapon.

add 4 more strength (or swap life ring for strength ring) to be able to use the vessel shield as an actual shield.

Back up your save file so you don't have to use agape ring.

Obviously we're talking relatively, when comparing one protag to another. And the Hunter isn't that strong. Just lifting it up and slamming it down partly takes him off his feet.
