You can't get out of sight if you're going to pass through them, unless you're going to use ranged weapons to deal with them, which is for pussies.

I honestly don't know, I replayed DS2 more than I replayed DS1, but archers are still the most bullshit thing that comes to mind when I think about it, with infinite poise + infinite stamina mobs at dragon aerie from DS2 being second. May be my opinion is biased because I didn't really have experience in souls games before DS1.

The reddit thread is cancerous though. If you say "there's literally nothing that suggests the npc is the furtive pygmy in any way shape or form" the response is "YEAH BUT THE PYGMY WAS MEANT TO BE FORGETTABLE SO IT FITS!!!!"

You can't prove he ISNT the pygmy, so he must be. Even though it doesn't make much sense and more importantly would literally not matter even a little bit.

their world can't renew because she chose to prolong it just like you do if you link the flame in the outside world.

Anyone care to explain to me what makes Midir a good bossfight, aside from his theme?
All I see is a massive damage sponge unlike any other boss, the only difficulty lying in knowing where he is at any given time. Because even despite his massive size, should you lock on to him, you will inevitably lose all orientation once he flails around like the resident autist dragon of ash lake. And since the arena is so wide, you are constantly trying to catch up to him again, once he finishes his flailing or you just wasted an estus charge replenishing the health you lost from his extremely widesweeping flamebreath. And once you caught up, you will be lucky if you can chip away once at his health, before he goes for another outburst of flailing, during which your camera becomes either completely fucked and you lose half of your health upon contact with Midirs body.
Rinse and repeat.
This battle is just a war of attrition against RNG. From my experience, anyway.

I'm relatively happy I made a dark build for this DLC. By the way, Murky Longstaff still softcaps at 45int (and 45fth) for dark spells and does less damage with them at 60int/7fth than Court Sorcerer Staff does. Murky's "niche" is that it has higher damage on its melee attack than other staves do, it's pretty much the DaS3 version of DaS1's Demon Catalyst.

how the fuck did you manage to be so wrong about a single thing on every single point.
First of all, it doesn't scale with faith, at all.
Second of all, it's niche is that if you were smart enough to use a 60int/7fai build with the Murky Longstaff it'd out-perform the Court Sorcerer Staff with the Dark Sorcery spells, if you use it's weapon art. It is not designed for Hex builds, and it's fucking disappointing, no hexer would willingly replace the Izalith Staff with Murky unless they were braindead.

midir is VERY doable with a +5 milwood greatbow. at 600-700 AR with 40+ strength, you're doing 300-500 damage a hit to his head while maintaining just enough range to keep him tricked into doing the flames-on-feets-into-lasers attack

The First Flame growing weak enough that it can no longer differentiate the concepts of "dead" and "alive". It is not a curse, but a side effect of the laws of the world breaking down.

There's no purpose. It's simply another sign that the Flame is dying.

>>172631164
Hollow is the natural state of man. Humans with the power of the dark soul are normally undying beef jerky.

Gwyn sealed this power with fire, which also granted humans life in the normal sense. They don't look like beef jerky, they experience non-jerky life and then they die. As the fire fades, this seal weakens, causing some humans to regain their immortality. However, this also means they begin losing all the normal things that fire granted to them. The obsession with not losing their past life is what eventually drives hollows mad and turns them into mindless killing machines hellbent on consuming souls (bits of fire) in the vain hope of preserving their old self. Hollowing isn't so much a curse as it is a consequence.

E Faith scaling is still scaling. After 45int, it gets roughly the same amount of damage per level of Fth that it does for Int (2-3 per level).

At 60int/7fth it does less damage with dark sorceries than the Court Sorcerer Staff, both with and without Chant from the Depths.

Depends on the catalyst you cast it with. When using Izalith Staff, dark sorceries scale with both Intelligence and Fath and softcap at 45int/45fth. When using Sunless Talisman or Caitha's Chime, dark miracles scale with both Intelligence and Faith and softcap at 45int/45fth. You can tell which spells are dark by the way their icon looks, and dark spells have a corroded scroll in their picture. Dark sorceries are Deep Soul, Great Deep Soul, Great Soul Dregs, Affinity, and Dark Edge, dark miracles are Gnaw, Dorhy's Gnawing, Lifehunt Scythe, and Dead Again.

On that note, I should probably mention: Izalith Staff, Sunless Talisman, and Caitha's Chime do NOT give this dual scaling bonus to non-dark spells, it only applies to dark spells. Crystal Chime does give its dual scaling to magic and lightning spells, but not to physical spells like Wrath of Gods, and technically does give dual scaling to dark spells but is very weak with them.

Great Soul Dregs has the same tracking and speed as Deep Soul/Great Deep Soul. Yes, it has bad tracking and slow speed, but it's bad for the same reasons the others are bad which means it's still a direct improvement just for the damage alone. The hitbox is also so massive that you can reliably tag people in lag, though that isn't a good argument for anything.

I have never played a Souls game and I know a tiny bit about all that sweet Dark Souls lore.
Is there anyone in the entire series that isn't dead in some way?

The idea that the soul resides in blood is an old medieval superstition. It's part of what was used to justified feudalism, as pretty much every european king claimed a blood-relation either to Jesus Christ, God, or some other Bible character. Blood was the inheritance of divine right to rule.

Artorias' Soul lives on in the blood of wolves, and the power of his soul is acquired by forming a blood-pact with those wolves.
Blood is needed to paint a world, and the power of the soul residing in that blood is important. Painter needed blood that held the power of the Dark Soul. You obviously can't paint with a soul on its own, so using blood is the only way to imbue the power of a soul into a painting.

How should I redistribute my stats? I remember I pumped up STR when I started using the Sunlight Straightsword because it has B/B scaling. What other weapons should I use? I've got Dragonslayer Swordspear and the Birch bow, not sure if that last one is even any good though.

I can handle subsequent runthroughs by summoning to alleviate the tedium, even if I have to roll the dice on whether a phantom will get inside the fog gate. I'm not sure I'm even going to continue summoning if they can't get inside fogs, I can't kick them out, and I have to continue the fight against a HP bloated boss.

I've got that one, trying to figure out the best use for it. Considered izalith staff for dark sorceries, chime for regular sorceries and miracles, and either pyromancy flame or demon's scar for pyromancy. Ignore dark miracles because there's not enough to work with. Still kinda wish the white hair talisman wasn't useless, or that we'd get a sorcery/pyromancy dual catalyst, but since this is the last dlc I guess that's just never going to happen.

I liked Powerstancing (Straight Swords though, Katanas are shit), but I was mostly talking about features like blue police, small soapstones, being invaded even when the boss is dead, buffing and infusing boss weapons, rat covenant, being able to carry more than 99 arrows/bolts (seriously, what's the fucking point of this? Why go to the effort of giving bows/xbows rolling attacks and weapon arts and then make them unsustainable as a main weapon?), poison not being a meme, phantoms not being able to estus while there's an invader, estus being a slow animation slow heal over time so you can actually punish people, poise that worked and wasn't overpowered (funny that they hotfixed poise in 3 to be a butchered version of 2's, with no stone ring to counter it), being able to attack with left handed weapons seriously if I wanted to block I'd use a shield you fucking kike.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some more, but still.

I'm not trying to say DARK SOULS 2 WAS THE BEST IN THE SERIES WHARGLBARGL, far from it. It's just sad how much 3 regressed because they wanted to distance themselves from 2 so much because of how hated it was.
>>
>>172634198
Crystal Chime is great for throwing surprise Sunlight Spears or Soul Greatswords when your opponent was expecting Forbidden Sun. As of TRC, it's also great for using Old Moonlight and Lightning Arrow to fuck with dodge timing.

White Hair Talisman is good on a 15int/15fth build with all those non-scaling support spells, to the point that it really should've had those as requirements instead of 16int/24fth.
>>
>>172634283
Crucifix is buffable, and since the innate dark damage is already high enough to overcome the split defense penalty, the ~220 AR added from dark blade is raw damage added directly to your damage output.

It also has an amazingly useful WA (protip: learn the timing to roll through the explosion) and those godlike greatclub R2s

I'd argue that crucifix WA is a bit too short-ranged. Add to that the lack of HA on halberds in general and I don't see the R2s being very useful at all. You'll also be completely reliant on a buff to get damage - all in all, a dark longsword seems straight up better to me.
I disagree on Great Mace moveset being worse than Ledos: Perseverance is a great versatile weapon art and the self-buff from Ledos is probably better than a resin but not so much that it justifies the insane investment. Ledos R2s are flashy and definitely more usable than great mace r2s but not all that fast or hard to dodge either

iunno, not for me i guess

The white-faced locusts were meant to beckon men to the dark with sermons, but most of them are unable to think past their own stomachs. Someone must rise to the occasion, and restore the path of righteousness.

Perhaps that someone is you? Did you not arise from the Abyss, and did you not resist drowning in the Age of Fire? Locusts and men are kindred spirits.

How is it killed? You should invest in something with that much ability. You get away with too much shit. It deals huge damage easy. Spacing is no thing, attacking more often means you can stun more often which is fine with lighter weapons but on an UGS is a huge deal, the WA is a short-range Moonlight ray in the first half and the second can either be a huge Artorias flip explosion or a huge lunging stab. How is this not God-tier?

I don't give a shit about its combos, everything about it is good and to make it weaker in damage would ruin the whole idea of it. It should still exist like this. Shit just shouldn't be easy.

Crucifix R2 has greatclub-tier HA, and its weapon art is the one truly unpredictable attack in the game that directly affects fights every time it goes off. It's either knockdown and roar, a massive poise buff, or a ticking time bomb, all of which let you do strange and fun things to your opponent.

I didn't like powerstancing at all, I think weapon arts is a much better system. Shoot, I don't mind how poise works in 3 because it benefits large weapons so they have an edge on faster weapons, though faster weapons always have and always will dominate the meta.

Are you serious with the blue police thing? That's in 3 and works slightly better than it did in 2, which is still bad but at least the inclusion of covenant items makes it more reliable to get summoned by a guy getting invaded- because before you had to wade through Crestfallen's dialog and pick up the covenant each time, which was a hassle. I'll agree with estus, though ADP made it so estus could be a really fast heal or a slow one.

One thing I'll give DaS2 is that magic, after GRS was nerfed, was good and balanced for the most part in pvp. Sorcery had Range, Hexes had Damage, Miracles had buffs and Pyromancy had Splash. It's unfortunate that it isn't the case in 3 because there's a lot of cool sorceries and "hexes" that are pretty trash in pvp, Pyromancy and Miracles are still good though. Also like the change of having Pyromancy having the stat investment of Hexes of DaS2 and hexes going back to being within the individual magic classes.

I also miss invading the Mirror Knight and Bell Tower.

How much damage do I take by using dragonform instead of any armor? I did a very quick test with dragon form, naked and with master's attire and while the rags did prevent more damage the difference really wasn't that big. I let the enemy by the Ringed Inner Wall bonfire hit me a few times to see.

The only humans he gave them to by canon are the 4 Kangz.

Sure, but then how come the locust says that he "finally" found closure or something with his love? I mean, Zullie spent her whole life with him already so he should be satysfied already if the locust was talking about her.

And why is Eygon afraid of Irina? I think this is very interesting.

Timelines, though it's a blurred line between the two since time is distorted. Kindling the fire essentially reboots the world. But when the flame starts to die reality begins warping and the past present adn future start to smash together, hence why The Earthen peak and associated areas look like inception.

At the end where you fight Gael you time travel to the very last moment of the age of fire. The First Flame is all but extinguished and gael has almost devoured every last piece of the dark soul remaining in the world, all that's left is that one bloke crawling through the ash and you. He got there manually too by waiting countless millenia roaming the world.

Paintings could be considered alternate dimensions I think. The painting the loli makes with the dark souls blood is essentially her creating an entire new world outside of the cycle. A world born of the blood. Made men by the blood. Undone by the blood

Why anyone would use hexes at 30/30 is beyond me, especially when 40/40 is the softcap for pyromancy.

The damage difference is about 10%, which is pretty good. Don't let the small % number fool you, it's a whole lot bigger when we're talking about spells with 500-600 base damage.

I wished that was going to be the new ending.

A bit late to the party, but Great Deep Soul is not redundant with Great Soul Dregs. Great Soul Dregs takes a shit ton of stamina to cast, and with 20 End you're only getting one if you want to roll afterwards. Meanwhile Great Deep Soul costs three times less FP and can be spammed because of its quicker casting speed and much lower stamina cost.

Not him, but the ringed knights obviously have nothing to do with gwyn, and it's obvious if you take even five seconds to read the item description. They're human knights from the abyss, and gwyn thought that shit was fucked up so he put a seal on them to lock their true power away. They're basically darkwraiths before darkwraiths were a thing, except these guys fought in the dragon war and kicked ass.

DS2 catering to pvp babbies was a mistake. You want slow clunky pvp combat to sate your missing mommy hugs and life achievement? Go play For Honor.

Invasions weren't intended to be competitive, just a nuisance.

It's weaker than the other flames for spell buff but the idea is it can be used as a melee weapon.
Personally I tried using it with my pure pyro build and it's not bad as a main hand weapon, near as I can tell it's not any faster at casting either. I imagine it'd take people by surprise in PvP if you were in a melee fight with them, got a parry and used Sacred Flame instead of riposte.

As I see it that's the lesson, he was the typical romance knight with a love for an idealized woman, his personal Madonna, and went through a journey of self sacrifice for her sake, along that journey he was slowly thaught about genuine life and love by the company of Zullie.

Unlike most people here, I don't find salt amusing, just a badge of dishonor. I'm disappointed in you anon, similar to your father. Why don't you go make another retarded cosplay build and have phantoms carry you through the game since your build is shit and you're not good enough to do it yourself with limited weaponry.

>>172638070
And DeS, DaS1, BB, etc.

It's pretty obvious what his intention was if you look at DeS. There's a good amount of shit that never changed, or only changed to refine an idea. Invasions where to slow people, invasion covenants were for fun and competitive PvP was a cancer that was only fed in the B Team game that was so bad that it had to be fixed across a shitton of meh DLC that took a really fucking dumb game and made it...acceptable, but only in the current gen versions that changed enemy areas and more plus no extra cost package.

Because you're asking other people to waste energy to tell you the story but the shit you asked for is so basic and easy you could have figured it out yourself with a little bit of effort. It's disrespectful and one of the biggest indicators of millennials. Someone else's time and effort is worth less than yours so just ask someone else and don't bother yourself.

I used to love watching and listening to ENB but starting with Dark Souls 2 he started doing "Education Walkthroughs" and you can tell he has a young audience who sees him on authority or at least he believes so when he makes a video educating people on how credit works in the US.

Fuck man, then BB he just leads you on over and over during his playthrough when he knew what it was. You know what I don't need? To watch a murder mystery with a guy who's seen it ten times and wants to pretend like he knows what I know. I want someone to shut the fuck up or give me a unique viewpoint on it.

He is probably playing TRC right now privately so he can do his "This is how I think you should play" run where he just fucking cheese the game while telling you what his take on the story is.

He's a sharp guy but the viewers both got his ego up too far, fucked his content, and hurt his widdle fweelings. I lost a lot of respect for him over that. I had a popular website for hacking phones pre-iphone/android and until it got cease&desisted I got all kinds of shit from idiots who would come and fuck their phones when trying to steal games or ringtones, and send me threats or say they were calling the police.

I'm sorry, more that one person here is multi-replying or posting more than one-liners. Look dude, you're offended but fucking replying to idiots just makes you an idiot. What's that stupid saying? "Don't go down to stupid people's level, they'll beat you with experience."

>>172638727
but you never had to reply to me. let me get ignored and realise it would be easier and quicker to look it up elsewhere.

honestly though there's a lot about all this discussion i enjoy. not the argument part obviously. i'd rather talk to people and risk someone getting mad than look it up. the conjecture and the ideas people have/questions they ask are so much better than reading through a wiki page.

>>172639440
no worries.

If you can solo Midir on NG, fighting him on NG+ and up is MUCH easier since you already know how to beat him.
>>
>>172639537
>He is probably playing TRC right now privately so he can do his "This is how I think you should play" run

Not likely. He quit youtube and moved to twitch full-time, where his delusional fanboys throw him $20 every time he says a meme.

Conjecture and good lore discussion comes from having a baseline understanding of the basic facts, ala Gwyn put the darksign on those knights to seal their power.

If you don't have those facts you can't have that discussion. You didn't come here with ideas to trade and a basic understanding, you came here asking someone to explain the game to you since you didn't bother trying. Don't try to mislead and manipulate people by rephrasing what you did in false and goalpost-moving light.

Be ashamed of yourself for being so scummy you're trying to deceive anonymous people who will never know who you are. It speaks to how you feel inside because any or all of us could be anyone or no one yet you feel compelled to not only keep trying to change someone's opinion but to use deception to do so yet you will never know if you will even speak to those people again.

>he survived for thousands of years only through munching on bodies
Is there any actual proof of this or just theoryfags? Isn't it possible that he just got there the same way you do? Doesn't that make a lot more sense than him somehow living for thousands of years despite already being an old man at the start of the DLC?

Is there a reason the Demon's Scar makes a different sound effect than the other pyromancy catalysts when casting Warmth?

Seems to make the same sounds with the other pyromancies I tried, it's just Warmth has this additional sound to it when you cast..

Does playing at DS1 at 60+ fps break the game? I noticed that people on youtube had extremely slow bosses, then I went around and locked the fps using DSfix and now I have become a god of dodging.
>>
>>172640997
I just tested it
You're right
I also tested to see if demons scar warmth gives you more HP per tick
it doesn't

>>172641410
In some places.
For example some ladders will send you through the floor if you slide down them.

not broken but some things change a lot
enemy dodges for obvious example have less i-frames, your movement is more slippery, gravity from drops becomes faster, estus and humanity can be used faster
physics and frame related things are mostly affected. another obvious difference is how camera drags with you and follows you faster the higher your FPS
