The one for the second angel isn't found until the end of the area. You just have to dodge it.

The one for the third one is at the far end of the poison pool zone, head left after dropping down. Go up some roots, and you can either just kill it with a bow or navigate some roots and rooftops to get within melee range.

>>172303585
Ledo's armor, it looked like a nice mixture of silver knight/milwood aesthetics and it appears to have been cut from the game.
>>
>>172303487
Lapp is found in:
Area after pillar crashes down and busts open wall
Next to 2nd bonfire
Next to 3rd bonfire
Then you solve the puzzle next to the 4th bonfire shortcut (swamp). The message written on the wall where a statue is missing.
After you solved it then he is found next to the Gold Covetous Serpent Ring +3. This is up the ladder and to the left across the bridge - from the start of the swamp area.
Lastly he is found in the circular catacombs with the skeletons.

That's how you play all of the games if you don't want to deal with the mobs. I don't suppose you decided to fight the Earth Seeker Millwood K***ht head-on while the other two were also trying to beat your ass down?

The shield bash on the spear Lothric K***ht will take away almost your entire HP bar on a counterhit on NG+.

Near the end of the area. When you get to the part where you're facing it directly and you have to run towards it on a big branch, it's past that.

Kind of shitty since they basically force you to run through a gauntlet of its attacks after you spent the entire time trying to avoid them.

When you jump down past the branch there's another smaller one leading down to the side of the cliff you're on, that's where it is.

That's false. There's only once instance where you're forced into their line of fire. Otherwise you can take cover any time as long as you're smart about your positioning.

>>consequently , prevent the player from exploring, that'd be way too fun.

Yeah, it's almost like that's the entire point. You have to explore under pressure to find the angel's hosts.

>>just when the player starts to get sick of that gimmick, add a nice old fashion poison swamp.

Who cares? Poison damage ticks so slow anyway this barely makes a difference. It's there to distract you, and by the sound of your whining it looks like they succeeded.
>>
>>172305171
Pretty much agree, though I'm not liking Gael much at the moment halfway through fighting him.
The fluttering of his cape immediately invokes Orphan's phase 2 which is funny, because it sort of symbolically represents DS3's existence as a worse BB.

FUCK. Is there anyone to summon for gael the snail? His moves seem fairly easy to adapt to but he's got soon much health that I so often get one shitty roll and it's over.

Also this dlc is pretty dang good so far.

No, Old Monk was a REALLY FUCKING BAD implementation of this
First, let's get to summoning. You have to place a red or white sign somewhere and hope no one touches it.
Then, once you finally get summoned to a player's world with a very small invasion range since DeS doesn't let you invade anyone that doesn't have +2 levels on you-
- you have to sit through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv0_iOOJvQ8
EVERY TIME, UNSKIPPABLE
THEN
You have to wait several more minutes for the host to slowly make his way up through a long ass staircase of black phantoms and bugs and hope he doesn't get oneshot
Then you destroy the poor fool because you have 3k HP and 399 divine blessing analogues
Then your reward is a small chance of getting a stupid hat

You know what my favorite part of Dark Souls is?

The part where I have to helpelessly run past a hail of projectiles from far away until I reach something that I interact with in order to shut off the projectiles

Oh wait no, that's actually the worst fucking part of Dark Souls 3's main game and it's literally the central mechanic of TRC

I forgot I was playing a game made by alzheimers patients who can't go two seconds without forgetting that nobody plays these games to run past archers or wade through poison

My mistake, it must be intentional, because this DLC is nothing but Dark Souls 2 references so they must have made it shirt on purpose HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH FUCK YOU MIYAZAKI GO KILL YOURSELF

There's an adjudicator on the first bridge when you arrive in the Ringed City.

>when you're halfway across the bridge, roll off the side and onto another platform, where you're safe
>go up stairs and run past him in between a volley and down the stairs on the other side to safety

Second adjudicator in the non-poison swamp.

>run past him. The area is so big that half the time he doesn't even notice you.

Third adjudicator on way to the Purging Monument.

>I'll give you that, might be tricky without killing him, though you don't have to run past a bridge or anything. Cheesable.

Yes, yes, he's looking for The Dark Soul [tm] for the Painting Loli. Congratulations, Gael has just slightly more importance to the world than the Cathedral Evangelists.

In fact, the entire introduction to his boss fight is Gael murdering a room full of people who'd be far more interesting to learn more about than him. Pygmy Lords who are directly connected to the events that gave birth to the Age of Fire? No? Anyone?

You don't. This DLC was made for Faith builds only.

Those guys are super easy to fight one at a time, just run to the other side of the arena once the second demon starts to get close.
Will probably take you forever though, and I don't have any advice for the second phase. I just took his fire attacks with a black knight shield and ~40 fire absorption.

45 str, 40 dex.

I used the DUAL WIELD greatswords. Just keep rolling through his shit. Think of it like monster hunter. You need to understand where his head is going to end up after he finishes an attack so you can set up before it is too late.

I just bought and fully upgraded the Demon Scar on my pyro build. As a pyro flame, it's slightly worse than the default pyro flame, but as a sword, it is SIGNIFICANTLY worse than the +10 Chaos Broadsword I was using.

Godamn, people are really overrating and underrating it. fucks sakes, it's not trash, but it's not amazing either.

It'll keep you entertained for a while, there's a good amount of new content, the bosses aren't bad (two are great, the other two YMMV) and pretty much all the new weapons are fun as fuck to use.

That said, it's not TOH tier either. There's a lot of bullshit, the overall aesthetic is disappointingly grey/brown and despite being longer than AoA it's still not really long enough to justify the price tag.

Just looking at the stats so far. Two handing it, my Chaos BS has 493 AR, the Demon's Scar has 355

The scaling on the Scar is worse, and it has no Physical damage.

Against the Lothric Knights in The Dreg Heap, Chaos BS does 275. Scar does 236

Also, Scar has no strong attacks, as that button casts pyromancies instead.

One fucking set of armor...

Just one goddamn set and I would've have been satisfied. But of course... for some odd reason, they decided "nah, let's just cut that perfect armor."

But yet they randomly toss in a Dragonslayer, Zullie, and Desert Sorceress? Seriously, what the fuck is going on and who is giving the okay for these decisions?

Man, having a lot of health can present a challenge in the sense that you can't affoard to make a lot of mistakes, and that you're going to need to fight for longer, and in turn, get more stressed and tired.

Pros
>can R1 into Black Flame, and probably into other pyromancies, for good damage

>good Fire AR, higher than a 40/40 Chaos AGS
Cons
>Pure fire means if they're resistant to fire then you're fugged
>even though the fire AR is relatively high for this game the actual number is a little on the weak side when compared to some of the other physical curved swords, especially considering it requires two stats to be leveled
Likely for PVP and/or fire-weak enemies rather than general use.

In DS2 is there any reason to not infuse every weapon with Flame and use Flame Weapon?

Even shit like SLB/CMW has terrible duration limit on them and less casts unless you have 43-50 Att/Int/Fth. I guess GMW is comparable.

To trigger Gael's boss fight, first time you enter the place you have to walk to the left towards a ring of broken thrones in the distance. If you walk to the right instead you reach a closed off ruined shell of a building. Shira invades you in this place.

I don't know what happens on subsequent attempts of the boss fight where the fight against Gael starts automatically as soon as you enter the arena.

A seal on the Dark that Gwyn made to lengthen his reign. He used his daughter Filianore so that the Dark would be delayed as long as possible. The Darksign and the Sun are one and the same because the Age of Fire and the Firelinking Curse are all basically a big old sham on Gwyn's part, Dark should have taken over far earlier. By touching the egg you wake up Filianore and the seal is finally broken and the world goes to fuck except Gael so you can take the Dark Soul back to his loli so she can make a new painting.

You can infuse and buff it. Dark infusion it becomes ok for any int and faith build that wants to use quickstep. Dark weapon buffing it of course is not optimal as there is the stupid faith only scaling. Well that isn't really true if you cast it with the crystal chime but don't tell anybody that ;) its AR is still shit though because yeah even max upgraded the innate dark damage is awful. Dark infusion is probably best.

Gwyn gave it to the pygmies along with Filianore
Pygmies got gypped hard. Ringed City is pretty ugly. The game giving you the sweeping view harkening back to Anor Londo just made it more apparent.

Hopefully Fillianore was a good fuck at least.
>>
>>172308652
Head straight forward, then under the giant tree (where there's a shitload of poison horn beetles) and clear that space out to create a safe zone.

After that, you can keep hugging the right wall and gun for the root that's surrounded by poison, you should be able to use the root itself for cover before climbing it. You can also continue into the poison for a hidden area with the Harald Curved Greatsword and a clear shot to the pupa.
>>
>>172308839
It's a gift from Gwyn to the Pygmies. He pretty much gave the primeval men their own mini Anor Londo to rule over complete with their own kings, although what the hell Filianore is achieving in there by sleeping all day is anyone's guess.

Use cover. If you break line of sight long enough they give up looking and turn around, giving you time to run to the next spot if cover after that. You want to get to the root on the far right hand side of the swamp, from there just explore and you'll find the angel spawner things.

All they needed to do was add a short 1 minute (or even only 30sec) cutscene after you beat Gael/give the dark soul to the Painter and people would have been happy. Just literally anything.

Old Hunters had next to nothing but it was still enough to give people the feeling of closure. A nice little moment of retrospection. Don't make us just stand there like chumps going "soooo, that's it?"

>Midir solo on NG++++

Definitely the most annoying fight in the entire game.

The presentation is nice but that thing is such a damage sponge and he keeps doing those nearly unavoidable AOEs far too often.

And its pretty bad that only his head takes full damage - It makes melee'ing him pure unfun.

Maybe i should just respec and cheese him with a faith build.
>>
>>172310393
The pygmy tells you that her sleep was a deceit, in other words she was actually dead the whole time
Ringed City is long since gone, all that's actually left is the thrones of the pygmy lords and a bunch of steep slopes that ruin the view in the background
or something, the End of the World and the timeline conversion has no real explanation behind it and I doubt one actually exists. That entire area should've just been the thrones area and some of the hills behind it with the two castles in the background instead of the huge expanse of fucking nothing and a random NPC that both appears and dies in one single fight.

Filianore is a daughter of Gwyn. They added a new daughter to Gwyn because fuck your lore consistency.

The mystery of her egg is that it serves as her head rest while she's sleeping. You break it and she wakes up.

When she wakes up, the entire world melts into ash and turns into the first scene from the original trailer for the game.

That's it.

According to the description after you beat him in the main game he rotted for a long time and eventually ended up in the Ringed City. In other words time is convoluted XD

In terms of enjoyment/difficulty
Gael > Demon Prince > Midir

In terms of presentation
Gael = Midir > Demon Prince

Spear does not get ranked because it entirely depends on the guy you are fighting but overall a player will never be able to actually beat a semi-decent boss as an experience.

Pretty much, yes, except at some point a "seal of fire" was placed on the place to somehow contain the Ringed Knights and preventing their techniques/weapons/armor from spreading. But it doesn't seem like that did much to damage the Ringed City/Anor Londo relations, considering the statue of Gwyn is still there and intact, and they still worship Filianore even to their dying moments.

What I appreciate the most about this DLC is that while it's garbage in terms of being a grand finale for the franchise it sheds light on quite a few important things regarding the world's backstory, and actually nails down the point that Kaathe was a misleading cunt underserving of any trust.

While we got a nice cutscene to jump far into the future, Gael had to live it. Poor fellow.

It did damage relations, IIRC. One of the NPCs that was dying curses the gods, they just don't hate Filianore because what the fuck did she ever do to them and I believe the Ringed Knight headpiece expands a little on their view of the other gods.
>>
>>172311602
Near where you encounter the second angel right after the second bonfire. Instead of going into the swamp, explore the ashy area some more and look for a drop, it should be at the end of a ledge.

Look for a seperate beam of light when the angle spawns

can anybody pls help with midir on pc

>>172311509
That's how I understood it. Gael has been there for an eternity, and he clearly is not the same as he was when you summon him for the earlier bossfight. An eternity passes while you watch the cutscene.
>>
>>172311624
The second and third angel are mixed, you will find the third angel pod first in the roof of some houses after you find that NPC with two thralls and for the second you have to rush through the branches to go to the opposite side and after you drop down you will have to find a branch that goes further below and follow it

Well, I get a painting named after me. Goodie. I hope it's filled with fucking Bonewheel skeletons.

With how much damage he takes your honestly better off just soloing him with melee. If your not melee then you must be bottom bitch for a very skilled melee to basically solo him while you cower.

I murdered Patches in my first playthrough because he was a cunt. Lapp didn't even appear in my DLC.

>>172311552
He summons them regardless, even when dead. It's literally just a hank squad, he summons the first Painting Guardian, then summons a player or Halflight if one isn't found, then when the player falls below half health he summons a second Painting Guardian. It's fucking retarded but that's how it goes.

>>172311353
if you actually use your shield heavily yes upgrade it of course, though maxing out is not as important as your primary weapons

if it's just for parrying forget about it. Good practise is to infuse an offhand weapon with simple so it restores FP, if you have titanite to spare upgrade it too to restore fp faster. Dual simple cestus (that's 2 separate cestus weapons not just one wielded with two hands) upgrade restores a very decent amount of FP.

The feast of locusts. He keeps popping up throughout the swamp area telling you stories about different characters who gave up on life and let the Abyss consume them (as we learn in DaS3 it's actually tiny locusts eating them), and how it's actually how they found comfort and happiness. Basically he follows you around and tries to convince you to let him and his buddies eat you, since you're both creatures of the Abyss and you may as well return there in death.

>>172311970
The stories he tells seem reminiscent of characters from earlier Dark Souls games. Logan being the one with knowledge, for example.
>>
>>172311657
It's not about him being manipulative [even though he is], but even as an alleged advocate of the Age of Dark and the power of Man and how the gods are super scared of their power he's completelt focusing on the Dark aspect of human potential to the detriment of everything else, while Ringed City shows that the pygmyes/primeval men actually relied on Fire AND Dark in accord for their considerable power, with Ringed Knights wielding both in equal measure, while showing none of the madness or hunger for souls of lesser Darkwraiths. Both New Londo and Londor are basically cheap, flawed knock-offs of the Ringed City completely tainted by their fixation on the Dark and the Abyss, which have more in common with the goddamn locusts that are infesting the depths of the city than to the actual residents of it.

Fire isn't the antithesis of Dark. All the souls sprang from Fire. Pyromancy comes from the soul, which means Dark in humans. The Ringed Knights wielding Fire does not alone imply that they worked with Gwyn.

It's going to lead into their announcement that Kadokawa bought Media Molecule and that game Dreams is being repurposed into a Dark Souls level editor, and the painting can be whatever you want it to be.

I dislike the DLC because unlike AotA this DLC doesnt actually have any repercusion in the base game

In AotA you had a little extra cutscene with Sif, and the way to get to the DLC wasn't just lol bonfire warp but instead through an already existing NPC

And it actually expanded on characters mentionend in the lore like the 4 Knight of Gwyn, granted Kalameet and Manus came out of nowhere but at least they were nice

I can't remember now if BloodBorne DLC has any implications with the base game too, but I think DS2 DLcs didnt had any

I have such mixed feelings about the dreg heap. On the one hand it was ugly as sin and one of the least appealing areas they've ever made. On the other the angels were cool, but I guess they're a novelty that wears off fast.

So The Ringed City takes place in the future? At what point in the timeline does the Cemetery of Ash/Firelink Shrine exist then? Since the main game is apparently in the past and the Kiln and DLC are basically at the end of time.

Are the Primordial Serpents one of the biggest ball grabs from FromSoft?

Make them a vital part of the first game and then make references to them all over Dark Souls 3, but hey, they died offscreen lol

Cemetery has no lore, it's just reused assets like 80% of the game. Welcome to le dark souls xd
>>
>>172312225
The whole layout of the area sucked, it's not just a matter of the aesthetic. It was empty as fuck and there was virtually no amount of minor detail whatsoever. They've done far better trash heaps in the past, though this particular team hasn't.

Ringed City was obviously better but wasn't that great either. The majority of it was the swamp area which I wasn't expecting at all after the view from coming in.

No, the Abyss still isn't a very friendly place that you want to spend a lot of time in either way. It is harnessed in small, careful fashion to empower the Ringed Knights [or at least forge their equipment], but it's still a thoroughly despicable place that spawns all kinds of monstrosities and even in the Ringed City itself, which SHOULD, in theory, be populated by the very people who know everything there is to know about controlling and subduing it, it is STILL causing trouble and spawning monsters left and right.

If anything the game shows now that there's no such thing as an Age of Man/Age of Gods rivalvy, both rely on the very same fundamental elements of nature while being threatened by the exact same problems, it's just that Man can draw power from the Dark in addition to Fire.

You see and kill the basis of The Doll, what happened to the Old Hunters and what they were like, more about the Church and Byrgenwerth.

For Dark Souls 2 DLC the only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that the Archdrake Knights and their sect came from the surviving Drakeblood Knights that assaulted Shulva and what happened to Alonne and Raime.

Cool. I'll add another thing for the trivia list:

If you don't get the "patches' squat" emote from regular patches, you'll get it at the end of Lapp's questline.
