How do you explain the fact that both of them become the Prince, then? Did Lorian split him in half and the two halves perform mitosis?

sorry FC host
don't know why I'm getting "unable to be summoned so often"

>>172898898
It's a roller coaster of awkwardly patched together areas of varying quality that averages on the lower end of mediocre. It also controls and feels different and this makes it irredeemable for some people.

Scholar of the first sin made a lot of sensible changes and gave the game some much needed consistency and extra polish, but the awkward skeleton holding it all up is still there.

not in pve. In pvp it isn't really that bad either. Worst case you can just use MLGS and fight like a melee character.

thank fuck souls is over if that was the direction of weapon design

This. The levels themselves were unchanged. Even if the enemies in the area have more sensible placements (for some of them, at least; there are still really stupid areas like the freaking Undead Chariot in Drangleic), the levels themselves are incredibly dull for the most part. Its basically a massive pain in the ass to force yourself through, especially after Looking Glass Knight when you realize there are no more good boss fights.

A weapon and a casting tool of your choice. Personally I'd pick that Preacher's Arm up and also transfer over the Mercurial Dagger; it isn't great but its at least better than using Raw Ass. Consider bringing over a Darkmoon Ring as well so you can start out with some additional slots.

This mainly >>172899815 they have an overblown idea of how much anger it actually causes. Usually because they themselves have issues doing well with both PvE and PvP, and are easily enraged by simple shit. If they get killed and pointed-down they go apeshit, so they assume everyone is like this, rather than just them. In reality anyone who's been invading for more than 5 minutes is going to be mildly annoyed at losing out on a good fight, but not ultimately more upset than any other death.

Is repeating crossbow good ?

Like I said, they have no plans for continuing the series. He's said before that if someone in the company really sells him on their vision for Dark Souls 4, it could be possible to make it, but they are completely without the intention to do so currently. Basically, it's a whole bunch of couched language to say "We're not making another unless a miracle happens."

they're not the giant travesty that you're making out of 'em, sorry to burst your bubble but unless you have the brain of a tadpole you can counter their WA spam pretty reliably.

>as opposed to weapons with a few moves that work in different situations that requires thought
it all depends on who's using them. if you're fighting against a mongo who mashes R1, that's not a valid criticism because a small sample of the playerbase uses the weapon like that. Blaming weapons for their design based on how unique players use them is retarded and you need to rethink your arguments if you wanna have a solid discussion.
>inb4 it's literally how the weapon was made to be played with
no it wasn't. There are more than just r1s available with the ringed weapons.

I think 2's DLC is massively overrated, Ivory especially.
They're better than the base game, no doubt, but I really never thought they were anything that amazing.

with so much focus on having 3+ white phantoms at any point in time to carry you through the game i'm surprised nothing in the environment changes to make it more interesting, not even additional enemies during a boss fight.

For what reason? Because it betrayed a "smidgen of life"? So did he fear that abyss would create something more dangerous that humans? Manus comes to mind

>>172900404
Wasn't that confirmed since Dark Souls 1? The darksign is a literal ring of fire that only appears on humans once the fire dies out. It doubles both as a seal and as means to get someone to link the fire.

>>172900481
He's got a point, some DLC weapons like quills and valorheart in AoA, or cruxifix and aquamarine are very fun and have many niches for most of their movesets.

Most of them are about long flashy things than having actual thoguht behind their movesets though, like Friede's, Gael's or splitleaf.

I don't really need to, but hey, here's some Miyazaki bullshit for you.

https://www.vg247.com/2016/03/02/dark-souls-3-miyazaki-bloodborne-interview/

>“Dark Souls 2 was of course built and supervised by other people at From Software, and so it matched their preference,” he explains. “So, in terms of the world design, and other elements, my preference is to return to something structurally a little more like the first game, and Bloodborne, with the world a little more connected.”

Also you're probably too young to remember his talk about the hidden boss beneath the Duke's Archives, but there was another DaS1 lie.

>>172900728

I mean, you can just google it yourself. I figured it was common knowledge that From did the LOL NO DLC thing with both DaS1 and DaS2, but Miyazaki was involved with the DaS1 stuff.

I mean, here's just one example of nonsense:

https://www.gamespot.com/forums/system-wars-314159282/namco-on-dark-souls-no-dlc-for-consoles-29137445/

>However, an apology from director Hidetaka Miyazaki seems to support the news that the new content in the PC release of Dark Souls will apparently not make its way to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game.

Feel free to apologize, or just not reply to me anymore.

>>172898645
I love how the entire area outside the bonfire was the boss arena. I only wish From included a new ending to make things worthwhile.

>>172898680

That's just Seath. The entire archives were planned as optional content, but got forced into maingame when Bamco moved up the deadline.

Anyone have any experience sunbroing at Dancer? I feel like that's where I can help out best but I want to know if people regularly attempt to clear Dancer early and what SL I should be.

>>172901318
The issue with this boss is that he deals way too much damages, even in NG. It's the case for a lot of stuff in the DLC. The huge hp pools wouldn't bother me if I didn't get one shot for the slightest mistake.

>>172900767
Sorry got hit by toxic

>>172901629
There was an interview given mere weeks before the game was released with Miyazaki still claiming that, though. I'll try to find it but it was gamesspot or ign or some other trash site.

>trying to upgrade
>actually ran out of twinkling titanite

o-oh.

outside of letting me fight a couple of lightning resistant bosses is darkmoon blade actually worth getting for a faith build?

You know what bothers me? So many fucking bosses in DS3 are made to abuse buffered rolls. What I mean is, when you roll slightly too late on something often times your roll will be buffered and come out instantly when you get up. Lots of mosses like Lorian and SoC are made to catch those immediately, double punishing you for failing a roll. That's honestly really stupid, if you fuck up a roll you fuck it up but you shouldn't be punished for knowing how to get out of an attack by being physically unable to do so.

>“With this latest release, we’re going to put the Dark Souls series on hold for a while,” Miyazaki said. “This is because it was never our real motive for From Software to be the Dark Souls-only company.” This isn’t the end of the line for the popular series, though. “It’s not my intention to say that the [Souls] series is completely finished,” he said. Miyazaki then added that currently he’s just not thinking about Dark Souls sequels or spin-offs.

He was also managing to throw the occasional attack out while still seemingly being in iframes.

Something wrong anon?

Midir 101:

Charge makes him wind up, roll at the last second

Slow claw swipe x 2 makes him super open, roll into the swipes

Frontal thrash combo can be rolled away from, then you move in when he recovers

Thrash with fire breath startup can be avoided by rolling to the left

Flying fire breath can be avoided by making a beeline to the left then rolling if needed

If you're underneath him while he thrashes and he does his standing fire breath, just roll backwards

Front fire breath can be rolled either left or right to. There's a chance he follows this up, roll again.

Side to side fire breath, roll into it and you'll avoid damage

You can either run right next to him when he does laser breath, or just run farther away, the laser nor the aftershock will hit you

If he roars, he'll try to grab you with a bite, dodge at the right time

Double headbite might come out of nowhere, just avoid the second headbite by delaying the roll a bit.

When he does his Humanity attack, just run to the side and roll, watch for his follow up

It's obvious when he's charging up his Humanity wave thing so you just don't go near him during this time

Finally for his super breath attack, I've only see it once done on me, roll right up to him, you won't get hit, hopefully.

And that's the entire fight.

Use Estus as needed.

What's the combo on this, I keep fighting split leaves and I'm always wary but I haven't had much trouble with them.

fix

comfy bird knight gets 30-something poise, too

>>172903542
It's with a torch, what did you expect?
It just goes to show that every single one of Midir's attack is avoidable with good positioning.

Oh well. If this means no shooting sprees then good for you.

I beat him, and yeah, it was luck. Definitely not a fun boss fight though.

It's a direct upgrade over the winged knight halberd but nowhere near as absurdly powerful as the crucifix. It's one of the more balanced weapons in the game moveset wise. It does a little more damage than nessecary due to the heavy infusion buff, but the weapon itself is pretty balanced.

Which weapon is MORE meta right now?
>try out Crucifix of the Mad King for the first time
>basically never used halberds before in the entirety of my 300 hours of DS3
>get invaded in the ringed city
>guy has the twin UGS
>heard they were OP as fuck
>guy comes at me and his phantom range is absolutely fucked
>whenever i think he'll miss me get hit
>oshtwtf
>start panic rolling and chugging estus as fast as i can
>decide I gotta just try to fight him or im fucked anyway
>r2 as he comes at me
>it lands before he can again
>surprised as fuck, but hes in my range now so I press r1 x 2 and hes dead before he can roll away
>felt like i was about to get instadeleted but ended up deleting him

what

If you have gnaw or bleed it will be easier. >>172903469
Can you drop me a few blooming purple moss just in case.

>>172903276
I remember the version of this with the pantsu and regret not having it saved.

>>172903315
That's not fucking open world then, dude, and thats definitely not what Dark Souls 2 was on track to be.

>>172903646

for you breathing is probably luck

>combo
wait what? Can you actually combo into the weaponart? I've been poising clean through shit and haven't had it done to me if you can.

>>172903697
>it was my positioning guys!
We can all see your video, so we know that your positioning was basically you flailing around. Everyone is right, you basically lucked out.

For the record I beat Midir in four attempts, not great but at least I'm not a cunt like you.

>>172903780
>fp to attack
>shitty dmg
hahaha

>>172903718
cheesing people with the painting guardian infinite makes them mad

>>172903602
Much better

Also I've pretty much given up on poise. Just wear what looks cool.

>>172903826
Yeah I haven't used it myself but it can combo into WA R1 and R2 if I recall, for a lot of damage at that.

wolf knight GShield with painting guardian curved sword

maybe no GS, I don't know if it's worth the str investment

>>172903741
2nd stage Gael is better in terms of music, though.
