Anyone on PC mind helping me mule a weapon? I have every weapon armor and ring if you need anything.

Still haven't played the dlc, how is it? Are bosses hard?

the dlc is hurting my feelings.
the only enemy i had fun fighting was Dragon Slayer Armor again. the Angels were also fun to dodge.

first boss was more Sif Crotch Camera Fuckery. with a 2nd phase that was either horse shit fire everywhere or easy.

now at midir and its Huge Sif Crotch Camera Fuckery x20, playing Wackamole with a head that is constantly moving and blowing shit up.

....i suspect im not going to have any fun unless I overlevel. cheesy movesets doing to much damage abusing Terrible cameras. No fun.

So, this was supposed to be the ringed city all along?

Bringing this here because I posted after the thread moved.

What's a good class to start with for a primarily faith build? I basically want just enough strengh/dex to wield some okay shields and weapons (to make lighting), just enough vitality to dress like a knight, and put the rest into caster stats and vigor.

Cleric seems like it should be ideal but its high starting luck, low dex, and low vit make me doubt it. Herald and knight seem like the options to go with. Advice?

Pretty sure both DLCs are made from cut content of the main game. There were NPC files for a "Lord Yupa" since the beginning.
Yupa is Gaels developer code name.

>>173145073
That's early concept of the Dreg Heap

Herald would probably be a better starting point for early game so you get fucked in the ass trying to cast shit

am i alone in thinking that the dragonslayer armor looks a good bit like guts's berserker armor? I'm using it along with ringed gloves&legs, which match really well, at least under the lightings I've seen so far

Not him but the Angels were fine, not sure why people had such a problem with them.

The only bad thing about them was when they forced you to abandon all logic and run directly into the line of fire of one of them to advance. There really should have been a developer message at the base of that branch you have to run out on.

>Angels were fine
How the fuck did you reliably get past Normandy without Great Magic Barrier? I kept getting mulched, and I couldn't find the summoner for it until I had basically cleared the DLC save for Midir and Gael. The shots track faster than I can sprint, and roll spamming just makes you take damage when your i-frames drop and make you lose stamina. The only way I could get past with even an inch of my life left was with the Crest Shield and a Divine Blessing.

I don't know what area you're referring to but there are only two stretches between cover that are too far to avoid damage and it's only long enough to take one volley at most. Might even be some cover between them I missed.

>>173145480

>>173146509
>timing of their shots
What? There's no timing to rapid machinegun fire. They don't stop shooting unless they're moving around to shoot you from behind cover, or if they're starting to curse you, in which case they recover quickly and start shooting again.
>Even if you take one or two hits
Except they shoot eight times a second, and a more realistic expectation is being hit once or twice a second. How the fuck do you only get hit once or twice in a run?

>>173146704
Izalith is better at 40/40 or 45/45
Murky is actually shit at dark sorceries unless you use the buff. And even if you use the buff it's still weaker than izalith.

However there is a neat little trick you can do.
Equip both and then use the buff on the murky but cast with izalith.

>>173146558
Fuck his tailswipe, I'll be bringing my tank next

they fire in salvos and target at your current location. proper rolling will evade much of the damage.

>>173146885
>What? There's no timing to rapid machinegun fire.

You're kidding, right? They fire in bursts. There are gaps between salvos.

>Except they shoot eight times a second, and a more realistic expectation is being hit once or twice a second. How the fuck do you only get hit once or twice in a run?

If you time your roll correctly you avoid all or most of the shots. You might get clipped once or twice before and after your i-frames. If you get hit by a whole barrage then you fucked up your roll.

Also most of the time the angels are turning to look for you, so if you go when they're turned away you can avoid getting shot at entirely, or at least until you're close to the next bit of cover.

>>173147151

If you go dark sorceries its also worth doing with murky. Chant from the deep is a very strong buff even though it only applies to dark magic, it is at least comparable to crystal staff chant.
Combining that with izalith staff and great soul dreg does absurd damage. Try it out.

Congratulations, you've discovered what everyone else has already known for years: Between the hilariously garbage netcode and the trash-tier balance, Souls PvP is dogshit and not worth wasting time on unless you're one of those "lel i troll u" mongoloids.

Midir's second phase should start earlier. The first one feels incredibly long since the opportunities to deal damage feel so much shorter, which makes the second half kinda awkwardly short and easy by comparison, especially if you manage to get a riposte on them.

The street with six fatties was kinda gay.

Having to sit down for a solid fucking minute while your curse resistance depletes is kinda gay.

other than that, good DLC, thanks for reading my blog

If you are not completely dumb, you do not run out of spells. Between building your slots and mana pool stat / going Ashen-heavy (or just slots in previous games and slotting multiple copies), and slotting a sensible general-spam spell in addition to whatever you 'really' want to use, you will never run out of spells before you can recharge.

Souls engines cannot handle PvP to any meaningful extent. Technically there are players, and they are fighting each other, but they are fighting FROM's terrible netcode and balancing decisions far more than each other.

Shame. So there's only the scythe and the onyx blade right in terms of natural dark scaling weapons right? And i guess the dark hand. Why doesn't the frayed blade scale with dark, why the fuck from.

Because From is apparently deeply concerned with players obtaining things of limited quantity through means outside of pve game progress and NG+ cycles.

>>173149427
Seems like it's
16/60 sharp > 16/40 sharp > 26/16 heavy > 16/16 raw
from high to low AR and investment. Probably not worth bothering with other splits unless you really want to 1H or something. It's fucking weird. I have a 40/16 character that uses it so I guess I'm switching to 16/40.

Minimum STR requirement for GoJ. MLGS' is 16.

>50 int
I have it at 45, +5 from Scholar's Ring. Same with Dex; it's at 35, +5 with Hunter's Ring.
Guess I can drop Int to 40, and up Dex to 40, and pick two more useful rings.
Chloranty and Life +3 maybe?

I know its a little late since "angles op pls nerf" but for anybody still having trouble, blue pellets work miracles.

Yeah being a retard is fun but when you're working outside of the game parameters you're not considering other people's fun but you're affecting it. You're also guaranteed to get bored faster than someone playing legitimately because you're at the ceiling of possibility and there is nowhere else to go.

I haven't played since a year ago. Are halberds still god tier?

>>173151216
life +3 for sure

I'd take sun princess over chloranthy personally

>Dex/Fth
what kinda stat spread are you running m8, i had my doubts about my own build and i'd like to compare to actual competent builds. I'd go to mugen but its filled with either quality build #1000000 or its a reddit trash build that thinks 20 Vig at SL125 is acceptable

So what changed with the elemental and raw infusions? Are elemental infusions worth it on any weapon now?

Aren't Dwarves. They're just weird little midget guys.

Go find me a single fucking instance where the game actually calls them dwarves.

speedruns are different from playthroughs

My bad, I meant Lothric Knight, hence the 16 (24) / 16.
