He reminds me of the giant chalice dungeon werewolf where you can't see shit during the whole fight because of his size.

>>172561076
The tip that made the fight for me is this:
Stand slightli behind his head, near the point where his neck connects to his body. He will 50% of the time do the left swing-right swing combo, which is easily dodgable, 25% fly away and do breath-laser, and 20% do the breath while flying over. Left 5% in case he does some new shit, but he only did those while i was fighting him this way. Got it on 2nd try after doing it this way.
good luck mate

All right, this boss was pretty fun. He was pretty tough, but fair, outside of his laser beam instagibbing me if it even so much as touches me because I was on NG+. If I got hit by the grab attack outside the first time, it was my own fault since he telegraphs it so obviously.

For the people who can't predict his charge, he does it when you're not in his face and he hasn't done anything for a few seconds (any time he's stationary, you should be suspicious). The tell is that you see the water splash at his feet right before he dashes, so you should already be suspecting a charge and quickly dodge the second you see the splash. Took me a few tries to figure that one out, but after that I was able to dodge it reliably.

His Oceiros-style rampage is also pretty easy to deal with, just roll under his belly when you see him begin, then follow him and hug his left side since that's where his head stops. During his second phase he tends to do it twice in a row I noticed, so you have to be careful after he stops the first time.

Other than that, what everybody else said is true, you just have to predict where his head ends up after an attack and chip at it one hit at a time. And there's no sense whining about it either, this is exactly how you beat Lorian, Champ and Nameless King.
>>
>>172561524
But he wasn't you butt

The dark souls fucked him over, and he actually knew that he could not return it safely for his lady, so he needed you to kill him in a way, at least he knew this DEEP DOWN INSIDE.
He left messages just for you that helped you find him, after all.

Reposting from last thread:

Why would I not just CE the tracers in? They're actually in the files, right? I remember /dsg/ saying they didn't have stamina costs or sound, but in sanadsk's video they have both, and

1. he's a fucktard so this couldn't have been too much work
2. that was patches ago, so unless they've literally removed things from the tracers since, aren't they literally 100% complete?

I can't CE them in on myself? Can I drop them for other people? Would I get banned? People I drop it for?

I feel like its not too good.
It's basically the throwing knife with lower damage and fp cost, the only "not downside" is that you don't run out of them.

If you're too close to him, you might not have enough time to react when you see the splash. So, usually if I suspect that he's going to charge (he's already just paced for a second or two without attacking or anything), I stand back a little and wait for it.

Worst case, just block it, it eats up all your stamina and does chip damage through your shield (all of his attacks do), but he can't get an attack off for a few seconds afterward and it's better than eating 80% of your HP bar.

At some point near the end of the DLC the old lady at the start dies and an angel spawns in the skies above the Dreg Heap.

I'm not exactly sure when it happens. Probably when Gael dies. As far as I can tell the angel can't attack you and can't be killed. It's just there.

It upsets lorefags because their autistic fan-theories won't be given any credence. Then there's the people that expected some major lore dump that hasn't been done ever before to explain all the very deliberate empty spaces and loose ends. It actually has some challenging bosses and levels, which upsets retards and people that try to roll through the game on autopilot.

Then of course there's the camp of people that just really hate Dark Souls 3 who wouldn't be happy no matter what they did with TRC. There might also be a small group of people that are enraged by all the DS2 callbacks, but I highly doubt that those sorts of people really exist outside of these threads.

A lot of the verticality is pointless. They just design a level, lift some of it up, then add stairs/ladders/elevators.

it didnt need to reveal everything but some explanation on shit like the serpents, the connection of the game worlds, and maybe on the age of fire/dark cycle would have been nice. Instead we just have a hodgepodge of fragments that are enough to form loose head canons but are not enough to piece together a coherent story.

In fact im convinced that if you were to ask miyazaki the answers to these questions he wouldnt be able to answer them himself because I highly doubt they even bothered making an explanation for them due to the fact that they can hide a lot of cryptic details and references into item descriptions and NPC dialogue and let Vaati do their job for them. It was cool in DaS1 and 2 when the world was still be established and the questions were still forming but for the series to end the way it did just seems like lazy storytelling.

I don't think lorefags are the ones screaming about Midir and Demon Princes.

Also, the stupid Primordial Dog statue and the absolute lack of a reward in turning in the blood to the Painter, but no one is saying these two things ruin the content that is there.

They literally forged their weapons and armor in the Abyss, you dont go forging in things you dont have under control.
And by 'peacefully co-existed' you mean got fucked over by the gods after they fought in the war against the dragons for them, they should by all rights be up there with silver knights in prestige and instead they get sealed away in the ringed city.

The fact that the knights wear blindfolds in defiance of the gods makes it pretty clear that things weren't just fine and dandy.

lmao2ultra!! is good, but it's basically meta cancer at this point so make sure that's not a problem.

Vordt's Greathammer got huge buffs and is now super popular, typically it procs frostbite after two hits.

Splitleaf Greatsword is pretty decent as more acrobatic weapon, does very well Heavy.

The Pickaxes and Warpicks are pretty good as they have the Galvanise WA and deal Thrust damage that makes them very good for just trading.

Burger King Greataxe is also a fun weapon with a good moveset unlike all the other G-Axes.

Profaned Greatsword tends to get alot of love too, though it might be more of a Quality choice.

Outside of that you can Heavy Infuse alot of stuff. I'm sure there are some good Greathammers and Greataxes left, but since many of them tend to share the same movepool and mostly trash WAs, it's hard to really point them out.

the cycle has not ended, the dark soul has not be destroyed.

We still have no idea what the serpents are. We still dont know how the worlds are connected, we still dont know who the painter is or what painting with the dark soul of man will even do. All we have are interpretations and guesses which have no way to be validated and will forever remain unanswered because FROM never bothered making answers for them in the first place.

Sunlight Spear still does filthy damage, and against multiple phantoms you have enough HA to deliver them from a Yorshka's chime into their face and that will evaporate a phantom.

It's not for sniping, I still prefer it to Stake, which is easier to whiff. Lighting Bow I will use to finish people off, respectable damage but not really enough to be using for anything other than killing blows - or against a bad opponent who doesn't realise the cast can be withheld, then it's fun.

Lighting in general works well as the wall of spears act as a sort of smokescreen, people don't notice you casting them. Combine that with Great Heal and finally Faith Builds feel like a powerful PvP presence, even if it involves Painting Guardians and a gorillion poise.

what makes you think the cycle is over? because the dark soul is being used as paint? why wont a new dark soul be made during the next age of fire (which is explained to come out of literally nowhere after the age of dark)

You cant reveal primordial serpents who are shown to work for the gods in some capacity and have knowledge of the cycles who are then suggested to be physically connected to each other and then drop them as a concept all together and not expect people to be unsatisfied.

And you still say Gwynfags are the ones with the silly headcanon.

I'll give you one thing though, Ringed City cemented once and for all that Kaathe is not to be trusted under any circumstances, but it actually gave non-Kaathe Darkfags as a whole a nice, solid basis to stand on to make a case for why drawing power from the Dark is not [immediately] a terrible idea. Darkwraiths have nothing on the far more well-adjusted Ringed Knights, too.
>>
Threadly reminder...

Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords is every single thing wrong with this game thrown into one moveset. Jesus Christ... they are by far the most obnoxious thing to fight against.

It's not surprising that every jackass now flocks to the weapon. Flashy attacks, outrageous damage combos, stupid hyper armor, huge hit box, ranged attack.

They put so much effort into this particular paired weapon, and then you have things like the Splitleaf Greatsword that has nothing unique outside of the weapon art. Same goes for the fat humanity guy Curved Greatsword. Nothing special but weapon arts.

Why is it acceptable to be this fucking lazy and uncreative. I've never gotten an "anime" feeling from the series before this game's 2 DLC's, but boy, did they sure go all the way with it now.

Such dishonesty.

The Ringed City was a gift to the pygmies for services rendered. it was literally a mutual agreement. There's no trickery involved, the seal of fire only came into play later, and it didn't damage relations that much considering he still has a statue in the place that they never defaced or somehow damaged, which they certainly would do if they hated him. Hell, he crowned Lords amongst their leaders and made them of the same rank as himself. To their dying moments to Pygmy Lords are still looking up to Filianore for protection, too. Is that how you treat a cruel enemy that has apparently oppressed you since quite literally the dawn of time?

Well, I imagine after an eternity, Filianore and the Pygmies had a mutual sort of Stockholm Syndrome going on. Anyway, Gwyn also gives them Midir, a dragon trained to fight the darkness. That's totally a kind of white elephant gift, meant to keep them in check, if they go crazy.

Not that I think Gwyn is evil for doing that; its sensible on his part, and I imagine the Pygmies were fine having a dragon on their side.

Nope, killed him first try too. I thought he was fine as well. Challenging in the sense that I was kept on my toes throughout the whole fight, but not aggravatingly difficult or anything. The first has a good sort of rhythm to it, and as long as you don't start trying to sneak multiple hits in, you'll do alright.
>>
>>172567848

Good Armor and good weapons

The shield is pretty trash but no reason you can't just wear it on your back, it's not like you'll be attacking one-handed anyway.
>>
>>172566814
I do. You want anything in particular, from either DLC or base game? Think I have everything except Shira's armor and Spin Doctors' Greatsword.
>>
>>172566375
no, pvp it's about equal to level 100 in dark souls, with is about equal to 150 in ds2 depending on how important you think adp is

to compare quality builds:
http://mmdks.com/7sys
https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/159070

and if you want to avoid wasting points on luck and opt to use the knight class in the DS3 build, you go from 115 to at least 120. The levels in 3 are pretty on par with the levels in 1.

so why are you able to walk to it instead of a teleport similar to the fire you use to enter the DLC? are the different timelines actually separate worlds that are physically connected? is it because "time and space is convoluted" garbage that they use to wave off any contradictions and inconsistencies with the games?

Standing under him is fine and honestly the safest way to deal with him. All you have to do to dodge most of his attacks is just run towards his tail, and its easy to tell when he does his breath attacks (which, again, you just run to his tail to avoid).

And just like that Faith builds have been redeemed.

With Sage's ring its faster then the rolling R1 of the Composite Bow, does better damage, has far superior range without needing the Hawk Ring and you can fire like 25 of them with one FP bar at an Attunement level of 24.

Wait after reading posts here I'm confused. Was that church boss fight meant to have actual players fighting me? All I was fighting was the main boss with the katana and bow and another guy who I can't remember his weapon but he was wearing white and throwing church guardian shivs at me. Neither of them were acting like players. And I wasn't playing offline either.
Can someone explain to me how that boss fight is meant to work?

>>172568168

>is it because "time and space is convoluted" garbage that they use to wave off any contradictions and inconsistencies with the games?

Not the guy you're replying to, but very likely. Dark Souls is very much a series about the Apocalypse. Time and space are unraveling, rearranging, and folding in on themselves. The world is falling into the all consuming Abyss and has been for a long time.

Think of it like a toilet bowl. The times and places closest to the bottom of the Abyss are closer together and less congruent. The shit further away is more concrete but slowly decaying until causality starts to erode.

hey guys I havent played ds3 in a while and have some questions. let me preface this by saying my day 1 character is like level 150 and on ng++++ and its fucking ridiculous so im done with that character now

I have a level 80 pyromancer, what HP/stamina should I aim to have at this level? Im using her as a way to mess around with all types of spells using the crystal chime which is nice but I don't think build wise its very good but atleast its variety

My first character was faith based and I remade that character so I could be on NG again. thinking of going something like split str and faith with a heavy weapon (lightning spears + earth seeker sounds decent) and anywhere between level 80-120. I had fun with lightning in the past though i remember it wasnt great either. Quality builds just bore the shit out of me though and I think they may have nerfed bleed to the ground. Y/N?

If you're a faith user it's actually not bad. A 4 phantom summon makes me tanky as hell(his greatsword did like 70 damage to me in that clip). I can actually outtank their damage by using med heal with the talisman poise. Plus your Ash estus refills on kills.

If it were available anywhere but in the final dlc in the late game, it would make faith builds actually good in the rest of the game before lightning stake

This is the convention, you've 10 levels and a ringslot to allocate as you please. Use either GCFO or CBV, but not both. You can gain a little cast speed if you put one more point on dex. Most people would tell you to put the swamp ring in that last slot.

Ancient Dragon

Because at least the Bed of Chaos just has tedium if you die and it can be done reliably in 2-3 tries if you're decent, it saves your progress and you only really need to do a single jump, once it's done you've beaten it.

Ancient dragon has a though area just before him, is tedious as fuck to fight due to massive health-bar and repetitive AOE that can one-shot you at any moment if you fuck up once, forcing you to restart all over again. He's the ONLY boss in the entire series I haven't defeated because I just won't force myself through his fight, it says a lot when a boss is so un-fun it makes a completionist like me completely drop the fight.

Everyone complains about Midir so I'm kind of sorry about.
Why does a Dragon that took an ass beating earlier AND violently fell into a chasm not show any signs of that? You'd think he'd take more damage.

only important side quests iirc for faith are the sieg one for the slab and getting the tomes for miracles, which isn't really much of a side quest.

Why do you think he flails like a desperate retard and barely flies?
He's wounded, sick and dying a slow, horrible death. He's a cornered, injured animal fighting back with the last of his strength. He can't even properly breath fire at you without puking up pure, concentrated abyss everywhere. When he rears up on his hind legs as he's firing that beam? He's not aiming it, he's trying to control the recoil of the uncontrollable deluge of dark threatening to overpower him.

Midir is fucked. It's just that even a dragon that's fucked is still unbelievably strong

3) Was the ringed city an illusion linked to that sleeping girl?
4) Considering the DLC's ending, does this mean the entire Dark Souls universe is inside just another painting?

>don't stand beneath Midir
Disregard all people who say this. If you stand under him he becomes easier than the Demon Prince. The only attacjs he can hit you with are the fire breathing ones that are the easiest to dodge. Just run behind Midir when he rises on 2 feet.

>b-but muh double damage
Doesn't matter if you can choosr to be practically invincible.

If you can't dodge this, you have no chance of dodging his swings on the front. He can only hit you with this after the fire breath too.

Anon. Get rid of lingering, use life or a stat ring. You don't need that many spells, there are only a handful of useful miracles. You really don't need 60 faith at 100, go 50. Put what you save into end.

Although if you're doing random invasions it doesn't really matter, but endurance would still be useful for chasing.
>>
Here's my overly simplified autistic theory as of this point. Based partially on evidence from the game, and partially from headcanon.
>For some reason, the primordial serpents get off on sustaining an endless cycle of light and darkness, birth and death.
> The little painting girl is the last living descendant of the primordial serpents, she has snake eyes and scaly skin
>Literally all she does is create new worlds, burn them down, and create new ones.
>The members of the sable church are followers of kaathe. By assisting the painting girl, they are either knowingly or unknowingly contributing to this goal.
>When you give the dark soul to her, she is going to make a brand new world based on the spirit of humanity. She is doing something brand new, creating a universe that is born out of darkness from the start, rather than fire.

Somebody’s probably going to debunk this in 5 minutes, but this is the only theory I have so far that allows me to walk away from the series, and from video games in general, with some sense of satisfaction and closure.

When you put the cinders on the throne and talk to the firekeeper, you're time-skipped to the end of the age of fire, in the dreg-heap, you can take a bonfire to go to the dreg-heap proper or go straight to lord of cinder. Filianore is sleeping to prevent the ringed city from aging, it's stuck in perpetual stasis.

but his legs are moving around constantly, which then requires you to be 'chasing' them.

depends on what you mean by sorc. Going 40 dex and 30 int for CMW sellswords probably wouldn't be hard in leiu of the fact that quality builds go 40/40 and 66 str builds can have up to 16 dex, but you're likely not going to max out your attunement that way. If you just want something that feels like a dex weapon without necessarily leveling dex, you could use the sage rapier.

the dagger is great if you have lots of mp for the art, which you do, since you're a mage

You can use lightning arrow to give any spell hyper armor.

Does anything special happen if you run past the dragon at that bit where you fight him but before the actual boss fight. Does he still appear in the boss arena? I kinda just assumed he was only down there due to him falling down after that initial fight with the player.

Hollows are not dark or light, they're just empty. The dark comes from the Dark Soul (or humanity when in humans), which is technically a flame as well.

How's Lothric War Banner in PVP as your main weapon? What build would you recommend for it?
>>
>>172573118
Twin GS and Crucifix are definitely great. I haven't seen much of the sword though, its wa hits four times and has good range so I assume it's pretty good.
>>
>>172572325
I didn't know consumable souls were affected by items. That would have saved me some time last night going from 100 to 120.

This dragon boss fucking sucks dude.
I guess Kalameet will always be the best dragon boss.
Also what is with From and making harder bosses means give them more health and make them do more damage? This shit is so tedious.
Final boss is pretty cool despite the more health and more damage thing.

>>172572746
depends, blue squares are active parrying frames.

People just use caestus because it weighs next to nothing. If you can afford the weight a buckler/target shield will be better purely for parrying and the manikan claws will be on par with parrying frames but are slightly better in the 1/1000000000000 matches where hitting with your offhand is relevant.

Whatever you use slap a blessed or simple infusion on it for the slight hp/fp regen
>>
>>172572673
that doesn't look too bad

I can get just about everything I want if i go down to 11 or 12 dex, 55 fai and just switch between priestess and hunter depending on if I want to use drakeblood/corvian or mad king

I wonder if its worth it to use priestess and lingering+3, cast the buff then swap out priestess for hunter and keep the extra spell buff damage?
>>
>>172573295
Has anyone checked to see if the buff is 15% in pvp? If it's nearly nothing, like it most likely is, then you might as well just use the ringed spear or garg.

1400 unembered hp is the ideal target (40 vig, life ring, fap ring) the further you go below this the more dangerous it is

with 27 vigor you will drop to a single poke and stunlock from just about any weapon but if you are trying to make a magic build work at that bracket you are pretty much shoehorned into it

Wait, i thought it was obvious? Friede's room has an idol with snake skin and Friede souls description (i think, might be her scythe or clothes) says she "changed" form to fit what people wanted from her in the painted world.

She is a shapeshifting half-snake
The painter is he daughter

No concrete proof but why else would a little girl be all alone? She has her parent with her of course.

So what's the benefit to using the Divine Spear Fragment over the Ritual Spear Fragment in Spear fights? From what I can tell the Divine one has a more "Sunlight" look to it, but has the same scaling as the Ritual and about the same damage. They both share a cooldown so you can't even do the attack twice using both.
>>
>>172574617

im talking about the tower, not the city. and most of the dark soul has been fucked away into the first flame, with the rest of it spread about by the furtive pygmy who went into hiding.
