Does anyone have the image showing the stamina drain per swing for each weapon?

The sheer amount of people who taunt and point down in 3 is disturbing
Good fight? point down
Gank? point down
Killed a gank? point down
Killed a solo host? point down
Got wrecked three times and then won once? point down

>>168947993

Int is only for the offhand scythe attacks and the ice explosions. Faith boosts the physical damage of the main scythe. Not hugely, but it's hardly insignificant.

>>168948737
His breath is literally divine and dark damage.

You can run sideways to avoid her black serpent attacks including the big one after she does that spiral up and smash. When she goes invisible watch the snow that gets kicked up from her cute feet. If it makes a pillar she's jumping behind you and you can see that snow puff when she lands. If swishes to the side then she probably jumped left or right in front of you so run up and get two R1s in on her She's aslo open for a back stab when she tries to to the execution where she drags her scythe on the ground and twirls around.

They fucked up having a huge-ass poison swamp area that needed to be a gradual environmental hazard, while also trying to have exactly the same poison effect be relevant in fights.

To this day, I still don't understand this meme. He's yet another dude in armour you circle strafe around and roll through his giant, slow-ass sweep attacks, and back off when he goes for a nova. The only complicated aspect is his straight sword he gets when he's already near dead, and he has a whopping two actual combos that you can avoid through pure positioning.

Is the ring of favor in dark souls 3 worth equipping? or are more solid build based rings more efficient

>>168952134
>his straight sword he gets when he's already near dead
You sure you're talking about the right boss here?

>>168952141
Ring of fap is eternally the best ring, it's not 1 tier anymore though

>>168952134
Don't misunderstand me, I also think he's super easy, never had problems with him, but it's undeniable that he's a fucking wall to a lot of players.

My bet goes to shields. Everyone who stopped using shields with DaS2 because how much of a crutch they were in DaS has no problems with Fume. From what I heard, Fume shits on shield pretty hard.

>>168952141
Ring of Favor is the best stamina ring in the game as well as providing more health and carry weight. It's mandatory on a melee build and usually the fourth ring a caster uses.

>>168952240
I actually forgot that he had it from the start and that his phase two is a totally useless dark fire buff.

Kind of speaks to me as to how underwhelming it really was.

>>168952103
Eh it's not THAT good. I only have 24 End though so I can't just mash through bigger weapons' attacks, plus the forward momentum often carries me through their model and them mind so I wind up missing a second or third R1, while they reel around and hit me in the back.

But holy shit, its "roll catches" are just godly. R1 hit confirm, R1, look for the backwards roll, jumpR2, if they backward roll again, jump R2 again. It just piles on the damage.

>>168952303
That would make sense. Smelter Demon is supposed to be the point where you finally put down your babby shield blanket and man up, but so many people skip him because they're afraid of dying in Dark Souls.

I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of having to grind my weapon down to a stub on the army of knights outside his door.

>>168952524
If VH gets guardbroken it's the VH user's fault. If they don't have enough stamina to autoblock at least 1 attack, they shouldn't be attacking.

It just takes a while getting used to the fact that you can't mash R1 when your stamina bar is half-empty like a normal SS

>>168952493

>guarding a greathammer twice

Well yeah I'd definitely consider that your fault.

>>168953303
WP will often double-hit due to its sweetspot, consuming almost twice as much stamina as a normal attack. Every sweetspot weapon has that bug but it triggers in some circumstances way more than others

>>168953303
Tsorig's Ring does nothing against shields but absolutely destroys VH for some reason

>>168952014
It just means your performance was sloppy and you should try to do better next time.

>>168953673
Well it pretty much is. Dark Souls is so easy that estus is really an unnecessary crutch.

>>168953257
I'm fighting Farron's Legion at the moment and because I stupidly decided to put points into spellcasting stats my health is absolute garbage. I get one, maybe two hits and I'm dead. It's extra infuriating when the boss has visibly around 100 health left, I know my fire orb does way more than 100 damage, and I get killed because the boss has 10 health left and I'm standing there with my post-spellcast-animation thumb up my ass.

>>168953779
Weapons are a crutch tbqh. If you never get hit then you can just punch it to death.

Does the horse ring still completely invalidate Tsorig's ring and apply to weapon hits as well?

how come I dont see gottards twinswords in the arena at all? I thought they were supposed to be good?

They were nerfed. Though really there's nothing wrong with them either but a great many people will literally only use a weapon if it is regarded as OP or 'meta'

>>168954120
Their rolling R1 was their best feature, and it was nerfed a bit so the community condemns the item.

They're probably still fine.

>>168954869
90 and 200. It doesn't matter so much so long as your weapon is leveled. An upgraded weapon is worth 15 levels of skills at least per level. Faggot tree is a good next boss but it doesn't lead anywhere. You must do legion to complete the game.

>>168954083
Horsehoof Ring is decent in PvE since it can guard-break in one kick. Otherwise, shit in PvP unless you're fighting a shitter who constantly blocks (at which point you don't even need the guard break to kill them).

What? It slowly spreads from her position across the hall, then after almost two full seconds, slowly explodes in a straight line at the same rate. It's also extremely narrow near her. How are you getting hit by it?

What weapon do you use? with greatweapons don't let her scare you, you will always outpoise her and when she retreats you get plenty of time to use estus, especially when she goes invisible and when she does her spinning anime attack

Also before backstabbing her use a pine bundle for maximum damage

Also here is a demostration of how much Ariandel gets raped with bleed, even with a slow ass weapon like Carthus CGS

>>168960580
Can't you still unlock bonfires for other people?

35/35 or 40/40 for pyro?

>>168960958
Enchanted swords, which can't be buffed but Ariendel isn't too hard anyway provided that frigid bitch keeps her distance. I don't need any more advice, I just need to fight blackfire enough times to learn her and then have a good run leading up to her.

Thank you, though.

You just described toxic mist and serpent. At least the projectiles have a use of being a trading spell if they hit. You can just trade (if not outright backstab) with Serpent everytime.

Is Soul Stream usable at all in PVP?

>>168963380

Point of curiosity: How does split damage come into play on criticals and how is crit damage calculated? I know split is generally worse than a single damage type because of how defense is calculated but is that changed during a riposte? For example say I want to use a dagger at base stats and parry my way through the first few areas of the game. Would I get better results with non-elemental infusion or would a fire gem actually be more useful for the greater total AR during the critical?

>>168965078

What NG are you in? By the time you get to NG++ you should have six in your inventory. Get crystal sage rapier from ludleth, gold serpent ring from NG++ Nameless King, and rusted coins from Patches. Equip all those items and them farm mimics for Symbol of Avarice. All four items should get you just over 400 item discovery which should help but you honestly won't notice after six plus hours of farming. Enjoy taking all that shit off when you finally get summoned and then instantly sent back home.

Just regular NG for now. Using regular Covetous Gold plus Crystal Rapier, Avarice and occasional Rusted Coin.

I'm just being stubborn at this point, I know I could just get the rest of the Proofs as loot from the subsequent NGs.

Come on, the only hard part is homing missiles, you can just dodge everything else and if you get hit there instant estus
Killed him on the 70sl in the faith build because I was afraid to be overleveled
Dancer was a bitch to kill on the other hand

>admitting you had trouble with something
Careful there hotshot or someone might tell you how easy the homing soularrows are to dodge and how easy Dancer is.

I fucking hate NK so goddamn much.
