>>170171085
Personally, I'd recommend you get it on PC instead, if you don't have a toaster, since Steam sales let you buy it for probably half or less of that. You're probably too late to participate in Return to Drangleic anyways, so may as well wait.

If you haven't played DaS2 before, then it's worth it at that price regardless. There are few games out there worth full price anyways.

Yeah, all I have is a laptop. If I tried to run Dark Souls 2, it'd probably go up in flames. (But really, the frame rate would be bad. At least on Xbox it'd be 60fps. I think.)

But thanks anyway. I might buy the DLC for DS3 and play it on my NG save since I'll be decently levelled for it. Still need to play the DLC for DS1 as well.

REMINDER

In just three weeks the first /dsg/ thread tourney is starting. On March 25th, 2pm PST a PC tournament will be held prior the release of The Ringed City DLC.
Participants will be matched up with others who sign-up and fight for the claim to be /dsg/'s champion. The winner and runner-ups will receive prizes including Steam games and being better than everyone else who fought.

Sign-up sheet is here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdE5nW644n-uDkR2sLrJD--n4Nsynw2f9GP2BJOrNUBpgiBiw/viewform?usp=sf_link

For the sake of organization either your Steam ID or a Discord ID will be needed to sign-up. If using only one, Steam IDs will be organized via that messages there and Discord users can join the accompanying server in the link above to ensure we don't have last minute drop-outs with no explanation.

RULES:
-Maximum Soul Level of 125 allowed. Someone with CE open will be monitoring all players to make sure this rule and others aren't broken.
-The starting location will be High Wall, followed by Farron Keep bridge and ending at the Darkmoon Tomb.
-Fights are best of 3
-Each fight is 2 minutes long, the one with the most % health left at the end will win if both are alive.
-Gargoyle Flame Spear, Washing Pole, Throwing Knives, Anri's Straight Sword, Ethereal Oak Shield, Twin Dragon Greatshield, and Fire Surge are banned.
-Only two Ashen Estus sips per fight, any more and your win will not count, initiating a rematch. Do this twice and you are disqualified
-All Regen items and spells are banned to disencentize passive shittery. This includes Sun Princess Ring, Blessed Weapon, Spells like Bountiful Sunlight, the weapons/shields mentioned above with innate regen and anything infused with Blessed.
-Normal FC rules still apply such as no healing items. Fight rotation will be determined once brackets are set.

So what weapon does the most Critical Damage on a 40/40 build now? I'm not using Hornet, but I want something with decent crit damage because Ricard's hits for like 400 on a non-hornet riposte.
For some reason the Dagger does just ever so slightly less than the Rapier (about 7 or so damage, generally) which kind of confuses me as the Dagger has the tied highest crit modifier in the game.
I would've thought crit modifiers would be more important than pure base damage, but apparently not. Am I best off just grabbing whatever highest base damage weapon I can have equipped then? Or is there some hidden gem of a weapon that I don't know about?

>>170174370

To the guy who signed up as 'Supafanboy' give your discord number ID in the response, click the invite link or post your Steam too, as is you just gave a name and can't be contacted on discord due to its shit search feature.

>>170175930
Crow quills have highest AR of all rapiers and boast a 130 critical modifier. Its ripostes do retarded damage, often breaking 1000. That said, the best criticals come from weapons with huge AR. Thats why BKGA, DSGA, and Yhorms were all popular for oneshot parry builds before the patches.

>>170177171
Thorns armor might as well fall under the same category as Fire Surge and throwing knives, since it's your means to finish a person off in one of the most anticlimactic fashions. Having to equip Thorns in a tournament if plain sad when things like knives and Surge are banned.

Ah yes, the armor the does essentially a whole one damage when you roll into a target.
I see where you're coming from but you can't really compare Thorn Armor to throwing knives as the damage is lower and throwing knives can be safely spammed from range without any real way to punish them.
ToD is useless without health regen so there's not really a point to banning it.

Yeah, because you can just walk backwards and slowly melt away an entire HP bar with the four or so damage from thorn armor right? Good luck beating a surge fag with just thorn armor, fuckboy, I hope you enjoy an extended stay in the burn ward while the molten flesh of your freshly Surge'd ass recovers. On the bright side though maybe the nerve damage will keep you from feeling that immense ass pain you're suffering from over your favorite spell being banned, you cabbage eating cocksucker

>>170177897
Ah well, you understand my issue then, that's good. I can live with that, though the thing I'm trying to say here that it looks like an incredibly half-assed job, since you (I assume you're the lad who created the tourney) seem to be banning things that are going to end duels in the most anticlimactic way, but you're not going fully through with it. Either don't ban anything or go all out on the ban list.

>>170174370
lol, im gonna enjoy wrecking these regen fags with my uchi. gonna be like my highlights as an orochi in forhonor

>>170177427
Throwing Knives and Fire Surge aren't banned for finishing people off though - they're banned because people will spam them for the chip damage then run for the two minute fight timer and win because of HP percentages. It'd be boring to watch people finish each other off with knives sure, be way more boring to see some asshat hit a single throwing knife then roll around for two minutes.

Please see >>170178453

This is why they are banned. Not because of them being used as finishers.

If I were to make a "Poster boy" build for Dark Souls II, what weapons would I use? The posters/trailers don't seem to use anything consistent.

At the moment I'm leaning towards dual longsword/spear because that's what the BoC uses in the CGI trailer.

>>170179838

Did poison become good or something? What's the memetic value of this.

>>170180129
Running L1s are pretty good and have enough forwards momentum to carry you in range for anything that isn't a spear, otherwise you need to play quite defensively and make use of the L1R2L1L1 combo when people run into it.
Oh and unless I'm mistaken you can even use the WA after that whole combo, but I could be wrong.
Speaking of the WA, it's probably got the most HA of the Demon Fist's moveset, so it's worth using fairly frequently.

TL;DR Running L1 is your only good aggressive move, WA is your best bet for hyper armor, learn the cheese combo.

The only reason Dark became that was I'd because of the Fire. Dark is normally peaceful and serene until you go fucking with it.

>>170182671

Dark and Fire are two halves of the same whole. If Gwyn didn't overuse the Fire because of Frampt and the Serpents, ala Kaathe didn't fuck with Oolacile we wouldn't have these issues. Unfortunately the Serpents are fuckers and are toying with mortals for reasons we don't understand.

Not it aint. So you saying the Dark Wraiths kiling thousands of people, Kaathe corrupting the Four Kings with promises of DARK magic which resulting in, again, thousands of deaths, Aldritch wanting to bring on an age of dark (deep) and eating hundreds of children is the lights fault?

No, its because the Dark is inherently corrupting, ninety percent of the bad guys are dark aligned.

If humanity is dark, all the more reason to bring on light. Because humanity is fucking evil.

No, the Darkwraiths are all Kaathe's doing. Everything you listed is because of the Serpents. Look at Chaos, that's Fire and corrupts all the same. Even Fire technically corrupts everything as changes it into a form that it was never meant to be. Everything should be Hollow.

NK was supposedly exiled when he sounded with Dragons. We don't know if that was at the start of the Age of Fire or after. We don't know how long the Age of Ancients existed with Gwyn and the others before they decided to take out the Dragons and start the Age of Fire.

In fact, we don't even know why they overthrew the Dragons. We know they were already making civilizations before the Age of Fire.

Just take your voice and read the lore arguments we have here, it would be an absolute riot

So do Lothric Knights tame or hunt dragons? Both?

I'm casually browsing through item descriptions and I can't really tell how they feel about dragons, besides that they're associated with one another. Some descriptions imply they would work together, or at least were basically dragon riders or similar. It also mentions hunting them though. Like the Lothric GS says it's imbued with Lightning, "the trademark of dragon hunting."

I just enjoy slaying dragons and hate dragon sympathizers, like NK and, likely Ornstein turned out to be. It's disgraceful.

>>170190854
suppposed to be "basically every souls npc ever", but it's mostly the storytelling one and heavily exaggerated

They hunted them initially then started taming them.
It's really symbolic given that Archives are secretly a Paledrake cult and there's shitton statues of Serpent aka imperfect dragon inside. Plus Oceiros himself becomes a pale dragon hybrid.

Well, not dragon, by wyverns.

There are extremely few true dragons in Dark Souls, the only ones that are truly confirmed are Everlasting Dragon, Seath, Kalameet and Sinh, as well as maybe the Writhing Ruin. Their descendants are considerably weaker, which is why a shitter such as the player character can usually kill them like plain mobs.

Learn this: Souls difficulty is schizophrenic. There's no consensus whatsoever amongst the community what bosses are hard and what aren't. Your easiest boss will often be someone else's hardest, and the opposite is also true.
Although Capra Demon and Ornstein and Smough are two bosses infamous for kicking in the faces of unprepared players who don't rightly know what they're doing or who just rely too much on having their shield tank every hit. It's harder to fumble your way to success against them than it is against, say, Gaping Dragon.

I too had a lot of trouble with them the first time, through they were probably the only boss in the main game that punished me like that.
I'm sure the fact that I was fighting them with an Astora Straight Sword contributed to that.

>>170191259
That's actually pretty suspicious. I never thought about Lothric becoming more passive toward dragons because of dragon worshipers on the inside, manipulating the ignorant slaves.

I think Dragon Riders and Knights are actually cool, but Path of the Dragon is for degenerates. Maybe if you could ascend into something like an Ancient Wyvern, that might be slightly respectable, but not really because you abandoned being a human. But no, literally everyone trying to become a dragon deforms into a snake man or something even worse, like Oceiros. The emaciated lizards that players can turn into need to be slain before they transform even further and start to see humans as lesser beings. Feels so good to use lightning on anything with scales, especially because I believe a lightning attack used on a dragon is described as peeling the scales off of them.

I don't think putting the Grand Archives and Archdragon Peak into the same bag is quite right. Archdragon Peak is where actual dragon worshippers congregate to do their holy yiffing and whatnot, the Grand Archives instead are obsessed in the worship of a very specific being for entirely different reasons who just happens to be an Everlasting Dragon, and a defective one at that.

You're right. I'd much rather turn into a snake man with all their senses than a blind, insane "dragon", which seems to be the endgame of the Paledrake cult. Crystal sorceries seem to lead to inevitable, crippling insanity. Though being a crystal sage and being able to teleport and multiply yourself would be awesome. The people in the archives don't seem that hollow, at least. They're just fanatical about their research.

And the next worse thing than a dragon worshiper is an arrogant wizard obsessed with sorcery.

Whatever we "murder" seems to put up their best fight, so I think that's a pretty good gauge for their power. Humans are the best, it's just everything is trying to fuck with them.

I was spoiled on it way beforehand by that fucknugget games journalist and then /v/ on this thread.

I just wanted to enjoy discussing shit with /vg/ up until release and all kinds of fags had to go and purposely ruin surprises.

Someone needs to screencap this post because it's good enough to be used as a standard reply to all the "y this boss so easy?"

What if the Pcuck shitposter is also the 4 kings and enb shitposter?

>>170194152
Largest playerbase of Souls games is on the ps4 tho'. But a metric shitton of them are also nips sooooooooo......

>>170196983
make yourself hollowslayer, it's a better claymore basically

>>170196983
literally everything

>>170196983
Most weapons are quality. The claymore is good and most greatswords in general are good on quality.

>>170197203
yeah summoning has been exceptionally weird for me lately
it should work if you keep trying though

>>170197267
>What if the Pcuck shitposter is also the 4 kings and enb shitposter?
The lore implications would put us leaps and bounds ahead of our current state.
But how do I know you aren't the PCuck shitposter? Or how do you know I'm not?

Check out Untended Graves, which is a representation of when the Fire is gone

It's still full of Hollows and monsters that will kill you

The Dark isn't serene/joyful. It's just the same shit near the end of the Age of Fire, just dark.

Made my first Sorcerer in DaS3 and was curious, is it better to infuse a w/Crystal or infuse it with Raw and use GMW/CMW?

No way to know for sure, is there?

>>170197546
Crystal infusion is more practical as you won't need to apply buffs constant. If you can look past that raw+buff gets you more damage.

We can only be sure of our own selves.

>>170197496
They're just what's left. All humans have returned to their natural state with the Dark and all that remains are things that never had humanity.

It doesn't matter that the world went to shit, because humans don't live there any more, they exist within the Dark itself.

Edited your stuff together

>>170197496
Also remember that the Deep, a place that was often described as peaceful and serene at first, just spontaneously degenerated into by far the most horrifying abyssal realm so far if the nature of the beings who worship it are any indication.

So even when left to its own devices the Dark explodes into insane beasts.

>>170197685
Trying to decide what to infuse, thinking Sellsword Twinblades. Would appreciate any input.

>>170197713
don't be so sure about that

What's the point of having Rosaria's Fingers's crest equiped if you receive pale tongues when invading as a red phantom with no covenants equiped?

Am I missing something here guys?

And what's the difference between Blue Centinels and Darkmoon Blades?
Both give you the same as far as I know.

Faraam Armor, dual longsword, dragonslayer axe and Dragonrider halberd are all good options.

If it helps this is an original dark souls 2 "hero" concept. And it has dual swords.

>>170198170
there is none

>>170198170
There is no real difference, the devs just made stupidly overlapping covenants for some reason.

>>170198190
Shit that looks like Benharts helm.

Jesus that looks nice

>>170198170
>Fingers
You get the 2-in-1 tongue for murdering blues
>Sentinels V Darkmoons
Not a fucking thing aside from small change in the hue of the blue

>>170198357
Isn't it easier to be summoned as a Sentinel than as a Darkmoon?

Then why not make a Dragon Covenant instead a Blue 2.0?
I mean, there is a entire area dedicated to dragons and a gesture that shows loyalty to them.

First time player for DS3 here. Just finished BB and decided to start DS3. Any advice?

>>170197991
For infusion your damage is going to come from either fai, int, or both. Good thing is to choose a weapon that is easily wielded so you don't waste too many points in str or dex. Sellswords only need 10 str and 16 dex so its a solid choice.

>>170198474
because little thought and love was put in ds3. miyazaki just wants to be done with souls
