Here's a hint: remember how Gough said that not even Anor Londo dared not provoke his ire? And how the symbol of Gwyn's strength is lightning?

If he were weak to lightning to begin with, then Gwyn would have smashed his ass long ago. Yes, it's stupid, but the Dark Souls games are very inconsistent like that. Assuming you've played DaS2, you remember how much bullshit Sinh was too.

The real reason he's not weak to lightning is that all of the DLC bosses have high elemental defense across the board and they didn't bother to make lore-friendly exceptions.

>>167985636
All we know is angels are somehow connected to pilgrims. We don't know how or why, just that they can't die unless the pilgrim is killed. It looks an awful lot like a projection, but it could also be like what the player character does with red eyes and white signs when they send their phantom out into other worlds. The "projection" could just be their soul dislocated from their body.

We don't know much about souls other than the fact that living things have them and humanity (human dregs) separate from them to sink into the deep after death. Maybe when the darkness drips out of a human soul, what you're left with is an angel? The Darklurker's soul was unusual in that it looked like a normal yellow-white soul in the game that took special care to make all dark-related souls purple. Why did a creature who lived in the deepest part of the abyss have a soul that wasn't purple? There wasn't any darkness in his soul, not like Nashandra or Velstadt.

Alternatively, angels could be an entirely separate thing from the pilgrim trees, and they just come up from the deep to guard them. We haven't seen the angel's death animation yet, we only have vaati's word for it. It could look exactly like its entrance animation and just be vanishing in a pillar of light to teleport off to whoever the fuck knows. There isn't enough information to say yet, really.

It might even be that we are the pilgrim and Darklurker is our angel, considering that our literal title in the covenant is pilgrim.

>>167986584
I mean the soft cap. The community set cap.

For daggers, should I be 1hing or 2hing them? I've been 2hing them so far, but I wonder if there's really a point since it's a raw bandit knife.

Could you tell me about your saint bident build? I tried it and couldn't get it to deal much damage

>>167986367
Everything heals too fast, the upgrade system is railroaded, the bosses are "hard" but not traditional dark souls hard a "Lets kick up dust but also spam moves" kind of hard, I really hate it, in Dark Souls 1 if you know what you're doing you can go ham, and fuck shit up at trade blows super quickly, in dark souls 2, it's slower and you heal slower but you can trade hits still, dark souls 3 is the a mix of both and it's absolutely fucking horrible, and I mean PVE here, not PVP.

Everything just spams shit and your character's damage isn't jack so you're left just baiting attacks waiting for an opening, since you can't tank hits without poise and have to rely on hyper armor to get anything done.

Every battle is so fucking crowded too, you've got to lure every enemy you fight or else you'll get over run with enemies from every distance.

I hope to christ they release a Dark Souls 3" Fixed all the weird shit edition

>>167986610

If Humans are destined to turn into Angels after their Darkness falls way, then perhaps its the Angels who recreate the First Flame again, as it's mentioned in Dark Souls 2 that after the Fire goes out, lights appear in the Dark and start it all over again.

>>167986792
Yes, just like they released a DaS 2 Fixed all the weird shit, but no, not really, we actually changed a bunch of meaningless stuff.

DaS 3 will never be fixed. Get over it.

>>167986729
2H has much more reach. The 1st 2HR1 is the best move in the dagger's moveset. The followup R1s also keep stepping forward to keep up as your attacks push staggered enemies away

1H will trigger bleed faster if you can sandbag something because the R1s chain more quickly and cost less stamina. It has much less reach and has less of a step-forward.

When you find Farron Keep, keep going. On the other side you'll find the place where you can get "Carthus Rouge." That item is the bread and butter of the bandit's knife, live by it.

It's not a Saint Bidet build. It's just your standard Quality with Faith points for DMB. It's not optimized for it. For Saint Bidet, you actually want 60 FAITH and buff it with DMB. That way it becomes pretty much GFS.

>>167987034
Thanks, looks like a fun build

>>167987034
>130

>>167986974
You don't have to be so vague anon, this is my fourth character. But yeah, I haven't gotten to rouge yet, I'm on Farron Keep now. I also have the Corvian Greatknife and the Brigand Twindaggers and I'm trying to figure out how to really use them and when. So far "if it has a shield, use corvian" is my rule, but I'm still playing around.

>>167986814
I'm thinking the second possibility is the more likely one, actually. How is a soul by itself going to spontaneously grow a body? If that were possible, the Lord Souls wouldn't have needed anyone to find them. I just didn't want to leave out anything in case they did turn out to be projections. If the Deep Gem's description is referring to angels that live in the deep, then it's more likely that they aren't human at all but just interact with them on some level.

One of the reporters who got to play the DLC talked about how the angels would attack abyssal enemies when they weren't targeting you. Maybe angels don't like the abyss. Maybe that's why Darklurker attacked us, because we'd gone too far into the abyss and learned a bunch of ways to twist and distort the normally peaceful dark.

Which is all speculation. This DLC actually seems interesting unlike AoA.

>>167987193
Your rule should be generally:
If it takes less than 5 hits to kill, use the Corvian
If it takes more than 5 and isn't immune to bleed, use bandit's

Brigand's suck, sadly. They're never better than the corvian. Just use them when you're bored of stabbing things and want to be flashy.

Also note that because the dagger R1 recovers so quickly, you can hold forward while attacking and go R1->wait->R1 with a rhythm to stunlock enemies while repeatedly using only the 1st R1 thrust. The timing of the pause takes a little getting used to, but the 1st R1 is so good that it's worthwhile.

>>167987287

Maybe the Angels are trying to keep the Deep peaceful and pure. Invaders must die.

>>167987192

I don't know why people settle for 120. It allows for weaker builds get health while also allowing other builds to put points in other requirements like Faith and such.

>>167987478
I usually try to aim for 60-80

>>167987478
Because the higher your level goes, the less diverse builds become. I've done the math, and at SL120 you have ten distinct builds assuming two offensive stats at 40, or 15 distinct builds if we include the ones that push a single stat to 60 instead of going for two. For comparison, SL250 has four distinct builds, all of which are some variant of quality and only one of which doesn't include spellcasting of at least one kind.

>>167986492
There are a couple of illusory walls, and aside the railing, they're pretty obvious. None of them really lead to anything important.

>>167987287
>>167986610
the fact that the angels are tethered to the Pilgrims somehow is telling. and the Pilgrims sure as fuck aren't peaceful deep, they're 100% abyssal as fuck. if the Angels were truly Abyss-hostile they would sudoku asap.

>>167987820
Also worth noting that the DSA, being controlled by "Pilgrim Butterflies" is counted as an abyssal target and receives more damage from the Wolf Knight GS. It also has massive dark defense.

>>167987736
That's good and all, until you realise most of that variety is pointless. The best 120 build, quality, with 10 more points doesn't get as strong as other 120 builds getting 10 more SLs.

They can't vitgouge, endgouge, get bigger poise breakpoints or get many great spells.

>>167987424
That's disappointing about the brigand's because they seem kinda cool. For bosses that can be bled, is Corvian + Rouge stronger DPS-wise than Bandit's + Rouge? Also nice tip about the R1. That shit's ridiculous. I also have a Fire Dagger for fighting the rare enemies that fire messes up, but I don't think I'll use it much outside the the cathredral... I wonder if I should even bother upgrading it since I've stunlocked those shits to death in NG+4 with an unupgraded torch.

>>167986523
Meta levels were:

>DeS
level 120
>DaS1
level 125
>DaS2
99 in ever stat
>BB
level 98
>DaS3
level 125

>>167987736
Forgot to mention, that's only "technically 10-15 distinct builds", since the vast majority of them are non-functional due to lacking enough equipment options to be a complete build. In reality, the stats at SL120 may allow for 10-15 builds but the way infusions work and choices for uninfusable gear means only 2-3 of those are viable while the rest are trash.

>>167987907
Sorry, meant to add the bit above in. Our only hope for build diversity is if TRC adds more uninfusable weapons for all the so far unsupported build types.

>>167987820
vaati's gameplay notes say that killing the angel normally results in it immediately respawning, but that somewhere in the level is a dead pilgrim with a fleshy growth coming out of it, which if attacked kills the angel

>>167987882

Kinda explains NotOrnstein in DS2.

>>167987918
bandit's + rouge is better.
Corvian + rouge is like an unbuffed bandit's knife with like 30 more AR
Bandit's with rouge bleeds twice as often, which far and away compensates for the small difference in AR.

>>167988012
I thought that DaS2 ornstein was a cosplayer in Ornstein armor.

Speaking of which, are Ornstein cosplay builds effective in DaS3?

>>167987736
>ten diverse builds

Really? Besides that, I don't really think 10 extra points would change much. The most "meta" build wouldn't gain much. I have a Quality kept at precisely 120 because their really is no other purpose to go higher unless you want fatter armor.

>>167986769
Okay! I don't know how much time I'll have to play though. It won't take me long to run down and get the sword but I wanna figure out my build first. All I know is I wanna use gravelord sword and pursuers.

The highest build I have is level 93 at NG+3. It doesnt feel necessary to go any higher than 60-70 for pve and the lower the SL the less cancerous the pvp. That is, until you get to 1-20 which is overflowing with twinks. My favorite save is a SL 40 STR build.

>>167988075

>The best 120 build, quality, with 10 more points doesn't get as strong as other 120 builds getting 10 more SLs
On the contrary. Refined infusion doesn't actually softcap at 40/40, that's just its first point of diminishing returns. Refined continues to get good scaling up to 60/60, and will outpace Hollow at any level. The only build Refined doesn't outpace on a level-per-level basis is casters, and in there case it's more like becoming actually functional since casters don't even start to meet all their basic stat needs until SL140.

>>167988281
Eh. Average at best. Weapons with innate bleed are where rouge really shines.

Other than the Brigand Dagger, what other notable weapons have bleed? I remember a scythe on my other character that had bleed. I'm planning on sticking solely to daggers but I'm just curious.

>>167988281
L1s hit twice, which makes paired weapons good for building status effects.
Unfortunately, they don't apply the full bleed value with each hit, more like 75%, so the full L1 is like 1.5 hits instead of 2. In that sense, bleed brigand's would still build bleed slower than a rouged bandit's knife, and do less damage since the infusion kills their AR.

That was probably a strong gimmick before the fixed tumblebuffing, but right now bleed-infused weapons can't be buffed and the infusion isn't as good as rouge.

The returns are pretty shit for refined though. Other builds are bad because they can't reach softcaps.
At 130, refined will get meaningless 10-20 ar at best for damage, while those builds get 10 more points into stats they haven't even reached the first major softcap yet, gaining far more benefits than quality.

Carthus Curved Sword
Warden Twinblades
2kat
Claws


Most curved swords have innate bleed, as do most scythes and whatnot. Very few weapons are actually good at bleeding, though, because it requires being able to attack fast at low stamina cost. Warden twinblades are probably the best weapon in the game for applying bleed specifically. 2kat and claws aren't particularly special outside of the fact that their WA can be abused for instableed combos in pvp. Carthus is the best non-washingpole weapon in the game and coincidentally happens to have bleed and be buffable.

Making rolls so strong was the biggest fucking mistake for the longevity of this game FROM ever made in the history of making games

If fastroll was the current midroll and the current midroll was DaS1 fastroll things would be much nicer.

A 130 build would have a boost to kill you in the same amount of hits. Even faster if they're using weapons that need too many stats.

>>167989248
The base bleed on most weapons isn't enough to trigger bleed through R1s before killing a pvp target. That's why rouge is 100% necessary.

>>167989260
Mugen says unembered hp at 50 vig, favor+2, and life+3 is 1,501, and 1,401 at unembered.

100 more HP, not 50. Also not a ganker. Red signs still get full embered HP though, and at that point you'd have 1,951 instead of 1,821.

You can't tank a straight sword hit if you aren't doing anything. Passive poise was retarded in DaS1, don't lie. It allowed for so much silly shit like poisetanking and didn't improve the game in any way.

Poise on fast dexterity weapons was pure cancer. I don't think anyone would say katanas should have uninterruptible R1 spam.

Poise is now exactly what it should be, which is stagger resistance for giant weapons that need poise. It's an improvement.

You would not be guilty of rape, correct. The rapist has to be the one penetrating, otherwise it isn't rape.

The dude wouldn't be guilty of rape though, not technically. Rape has to be a willing act, you can't involuntarily rape someone. That said, it'd be almost impossible to prove he didn't rape you if his sexual fluids are inside you and a doctor is able to prove this. Also note, it's just as possible to make a dude orgasm and ejaculate from forced stimulation just as much as it is for a woman, no matter how unwanted. In such a case, the presence of his ejaculate inside the woman would be enough to "prove" he raped her beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Higher levels of hollowing in 3 makes Hollow-infused weapons stronger

It's also part of a hidden sidequest to get an alternate ending

The legal definition of penetrating with body parts or objects does not include trained animals.

>>167990770
You'd be guilty of sexual assault among other things (regular assault, kidnapping, etc.).
Sexual assault is a broader umbrella that covers a range of violent or non-consensual sex acts.

Depending on the jurisdiction, the legal consequences of rape and sexual assault verdicts can be identical, or vary on maximum/minimum penalties.

There are some places in the world where the legal definition of "sex" has been updated to more flexibly accommodate things like lesbian intercourse and whatnot, but also places where these things remain outdated. The issue is entirely a semantic one, as it's the result of the legal definition of sex being written back when the average person couldn't even conceive of bedroom acts that didn't occur between consenting adults in wedlock under the bedsheets, with the lights off and for the sole purpose of procreation.

>>167993303
You can farm shackles off the giant skeletons in the catacombs.

You can also leave your white purple sign in places like Anor Londo or Watchdog zone and sometimes you'll get a nice host who lets you farm invaders with him. Or just kill invading purples yourself for the shackles.

If you don't mind being an absolute cancerous shitstain, you can farm 30 shackles and sunlight medals in a single evening by joining up with a gank squad and farming purple and gold invaders for a few hours straight. It's disgustingly easy, too.

>>167993303
You should have started invading at 30 or so, and just rape shitters senseless. Some of the time the host even dies without your interference so there's a free shackle.

You also get practice by fighting Hodrick a couple times, that's two free shackles there.

>>167993481

You know pyros can heal nearly effectively as clerics with miracles for 1 ATT slot instead of 2, right? You know you also have orange estus.

>>167993481

It actually heals far more HP than any other spell for not even a fraction of the cost Soothing Sunlight needs, and for only 25 Faith too. It's a very, very good spell.

I like to cast it as a purple in Anor Londo and watch everyone fight over the pretty lights.

>>167993563
>You also get practice by fighting Hodrick a couple times, that's two free shackles there
The summoned Hodrick doesn't give a shackle for killing him, he's just there to kill crabs and invaders for you.

>>167993780
>You need int too
False, Warmth is pure 25fth cost non-scaling healing effect.

>>167993681
It's really good for co op, because you can drop it during a boss fight and the host/phantoms can retreat into it to heal quite a bit of health, for free

>>167993840
I meant for pyromancy in general, should've been more specific.

>>167993856
And in doing so aggro the boss after them, who then gets healing from your Warmth.

Seriously, don't cast Warmth in boss fights. Cast Great Heal if you want to be a heal slut, it's faster and doesn't heal the boss too.

Boy I'm real fucking happy they changed that and just didn't bother to say shit during character creation. Originally I thought I had a caster with decent melee ability, now it turns out I just have a shitty melee character.

I thought the point of pyromancy was having a character that was able to do multiple things decently without being pigeonholed. Apparently, though, it didn't occur to anyone that being able to do magic worse than dedicated magic users while still having to dump as many points into magic skills is dumb as shit.

>>167995458
what does getting hit by Magic or Dark damage feel like?

>>167995346
Couple corrections to make here:

Pyros in DaS1 were strictly better than all other forms of caster due to not needing stat investment without giving up melee ability while still having high spell damage.

Pyros in DaS3 are superior to all other forms of caster due to their huge damage output, high spell variety, and still having higher melee damage than even melee builds in some cases due to Dark's/Chaos's retarded as fuck scaling, all for only 10 levels higher than a sorcerer or cleric needs.

So quit your bitching and get back to being tied for the best build in the game.

>>167995430
I can't decide between Sacred Bloom Shield or Gold Wing Crest Shield.

>>167995601
All three games describe dark spells as being semi-solid and hitting with weighty impact. They are not wholly solid and not wholly incorporeal, and their form is somewhat malleable as they twist and trail about.

I imagine it'd be a lot like being punched by water. Some dark spells even make splashing sounds when they hit things.

>>167995601
I always imagined sorcery is like that kind of heat that's so insane that it just feels cold while it disintegrates your skin. Mostly because magic effects proc blue fire all over you. It's sort of reiterated with BB's Arcane attacks being space/star themed.

the secret knowledge that seathe discovered, that drove him, and everyone who learned the secret from his archives, to insanity.

my (poorly explained) theory, comparing the similarities of the dark soul and seathe's crystalline soul, alongside his research into humanity, immortality, and the concept of "undeath", is that a primary attribute of the dark soul is that it's not really a soul in the way a normal so like gwyn's is, but rather a sentient entity, essentially a conscience implanted into soul energy itself, so in such way the being's mind survives physical death and can be implanted into a new host, or even mutliple should the sentient soul be split. Pilgrim butterflies are an occurrence of the soul, in some way, achieving physical form, the creation of moonlight butterflies being seathe's recreation of this process, to prove that the unique aspects of the dark soul can be reproduced on "generic" souls such as his. From here seathe did some reverse engineering of the process to learn how to convert a soul into a non-animate physical entity, one that can be preserved, leading to the invention of soul crystals. He used this process to create the primordial crystal from his soul, implanting his consciousness into the soul crystal in the process, and either naturally or intentionally, the seathe crystals spread from the primordial core, retaining his mind even after physical death.

In a sense, as long as crystals exist, seathe is still alive and can even exert his personality and pysche onto any being who becomes consumed by, such as the crystal knight from DS1, crystal lizards, golems, and especially Oceiros. Who they are merges with seathe, creating a duality of both of their minds into a single being.

This is basically what the dark soul is, and why seathe became a true undead. the dark soul is the "dark lord", his mind implanted into soul energy, in such a way as to gain immortality and covert influence
tl;dr dark soul is alive

>>167997556
The banner can be looted immediately after in an area that is the ruins of Firelink Shrine. You know where Frampt appears out of a hole? You go through that hole to progress.

Check the footage of the boss fight: the entire ruins of the arena is Firelink Shrine rubble.

Going any further is pretty rude anon

Is there a reason I can only respec 5 times?

>>167997995
Yeah that's another significant part of the arena.

A central mechanic that takes some getting used to is the ability to negate ALL fall damage if you land on ash. Most people will have a hard time finding the way forward because it's not intuitive to throw yourself off cliffs (some are crazy long jumps)

It's impossible to suspend disbelief when you land in the boss arena though..you're not landing on ash, it's kinda stupid just like you don't take damage while fighting the curse-rotted greatwood

Two-handing them is a wonderful way to get past the angel in some parts. The shield itself is on the edge of the cliff when you hit Earthen Peak.

How long did it take to get to the boss?

>>167999076
>50 Str
Okay, that settles it, I'm going to start a new character and go pure Str with just enough Int for Great Magic Shield.

And if this is actually true, it's a nice nod back to OrmaReeve's since the 33 Str requirement meant you needed 50 for power-stancing.

>>167999141
Yeah absolutely, you can run there in 3 minutes if you know where it is.

The unsatisfying thing is that the projectile it shoots isn't as fucking cool as the dark masses that claw their way towards you.

It's just an orb.

>did you try any of the new weapons?
The Aquamarine Dagger is kind of like Friede's Scythe where R1 and R2 become combo moves.

The Harald Greatsword has an attack where it slams the enemy at their feet (like Yhorm Machete).

The Splitleaf Halberd has a spin weapon art. Holding L2 spins it (does damage if they're close) and you can R1 I think to do a spin attack.

It's nice to have these memory prompts, I remember more than I thought I did.

>>167999349
I should add: I was talking about the Harald Greatsword's weapon art. It does multiple slams, then a big jump slam.

>>167999202
Maybe 2-3 hours of careful exploration, the first time?

Subsequent run through's i could get there in like 20 mins from the start of the DLC, i reckon

What are some must haves to get to make my playthrough a little better? I would like to main knives if possible.

>>167999349

>you can run there in 3 minutes if you know where it is.

Nice! Too bad about the projectile, though. How was the damage on it? Decent for your INT level? People are speculating/hoping that it's the "Soul Spear" equivalent for hexers.

Anyway, I figured that the Aquamarine Dagger would work that way. I liked the stance mechanic from Freide's Scythe so I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it. As for the others, they seem pretty cool. Gotta try out that Splitleaf at some point.

Did you find this armor or use this greatsword? Also if you fought these guys how long did it take to find one?

>>167999692
I think the damage was decent, but the projectile itself is slow as fuck. No way it's viable in PvP...

Man, how are they still so shit at making magic viable?

>>167999750
That was not accessible in the first part of the DLC you were supposed to play. That looks like it's in the actual Ringed City.

People saying they're darkwraiths aren't looking close enough though.

>>167999772

>slow projectile

I know I should have expected that considering it's a Soul Dreg upgrade, but fuck that sounds so discouraging. Oh well. I just hope we get more useful spells in the later parts of the DLC to make up for it.

Thanks for answering my questions, anon.

>>167999886
I reckon pyromancy will be the most fun, by far

>crazy fast Flame Fan pyromancy
>curved fire sword that can cast pyromancy
>that other Demon Prince pyromancy

Sadly I didn't try the Demon Prince pyromancy, and sadly you'd have to trigger NG+ in order to get both of them hey..

>>168000090

Oh, yeah, the fan. Is that basically pyro Flashsword?

>tfw pyromancers will get all the best and fun spells and weapons in the DLC

Being a cleric sure does suck.

>>168000258
That's a really good comparison actually, yeah. Its speed is absolutely comparable to Flashsword.

Definitely a bigger hitbox, too - and it staggered my character. Zoey uses it.

>>168000331
Whos zoey? Boss? NPC?

>>168000412
She's the Desert Sorceress towards the end of Earthen Peak. She drops Flame Fan.

Just an enemy NPC wandering around.

>>168000541
We already have the fan spell description with her lore

>>168000682
Do you have it?

>>168000580
SL40 is around the right amount, perhaps on the low side for Irithyll. Most people hit around 30-35 for Abyss Watchers and Cathedral, then 40 for Carthus and Smouldering Lake. You could probably go SL45 and still get decent action for pre-Pontiff, around 50 for post-Pontiff to Aldrich.

Beyond that, you'll probably hit 55-60 for Propane Capital, and end up at around 70-75 for Homoprinces, and end the game at 80.

Zoey possessed true beauty, as did all the desert pyromancers, but hers did not poison, and so she became the unassuming queen of the feeble ones

I just got to the church bonfire, so I'm probably just gonna wrap up Siegward's stuff first and then just invade and do co-op.

What's it like invading anyway at this SL range? Gangbangs?

Which one of the 2 is the best and why is it Ornstein

>>168001127
I ran into various FC's and duels in Cathedral when invading at SL30, so I stopped bothering.

Farron Keep was quite active, same with Crucifixion Woods. Didn't run into many ganks, maybe one or two, but I did run into several parties of a host and his Sunbro buttbuddies on their way to fight Abyss Watchers. Crucifixion Woods had more solo travelers, with the occasional help from a Watchdog and interruption of a Blue Sentinel. All of the above were enhanced in length due to me boss invading as a grapist and chasing the parties into Abyss Watchers and occasionally Crystal Sage. You won't have that option anymore though, so be sure to make your invasions count.

Kalabeat Kalameet on 4th attempt finally, Once i farmed up the chunks again I made my man-serpent sword +14 because the UGS while doable felt really slow when i fought him with it.

One of those big dudes with the pots in Undead Settlement just threw one and knocked me of the bridge into the chasm where you meet Irina, and I took no fall damage. Was this a bug or do you just not take fall damage when you were knocked down rather than dropping yourself?
