They are easy as shit. Just run up to get them to drop and run to the right. Eventually one walks over and you can kill them 1 by 1. I like farming them and ocassionally the pugs ringed knight in front on the spears of the church fight, because he is fun to fight.

Combine it with a fashion or covenant farm if you can. Otherwise Ng+ makes the two silvers on Anor Londo pretty fast and efficient.

>>174334681
Never stop walking straight at them, throw out R1s every few seconds, try to roll catch every single roll they do. If they have a parry tool walk right up and kick their parry into a free R1. If they swing, roll behind them and keep walking right at their face. Be a reactive shitter if they have an ultra weapon or anything with poise but keep walking straight at them. Even if you're low on stamina jog in their face because the more they backpedal the more time you have to regenerate.

When he said you can't riposte with 2h in DaS1, people in the comment section said you could. I tried this on Black Knights in asylum (parry with grass crest, swap to 2h my gravelord) and I can't seem to get the riposte. Is he wrong about it or is he right? I can't seem to do it, but commenters said they can

Ah I see. So it's a trade off for a bit more range and better crit if I decide to swap to Lothric Knight Sword.

Meh, I guess I could mix the Hornet Ring into my build and get some pretty nasty crits going.

I feel like Dark Souls 3 is almost as awkwardly disjointed as Dark Souls 2 is. Not quite, but almost (nothing will beat the Iron Keep though, so...).

And I feel like the "Lords of Cinder's lands are converging" thing is more or less an excuse to get away with this kind of awkward, nonsensical world building.

Both games aren't up to par with Dark Souls 1's geography layout. If you could warp from the get go in DaS1, 2 and 3 would have nothing to stand on in this department.

They should buff sharpen to make it's effect consistent between the two weapons. Should give both the 10% damage bonus and make each swing heal for 20% of the damage dealt. Anyone disagree?

The only thing that remotely resembles a good patch for invaders were seed nerfs right? I mean, if the host can't use pve against you then guerilla tactics work even better now? I'm legit thinking maybe regen for better heal efficiency and ambushing hosts to dwindle their health down is a good idea or can they camp by the bonfire to wait out that one minute cooldown?

Someone had the nerve to give me shit over mail about running away under these conditions. There were no blueberries yet but there were 2 Whites with multiple tears of denial up. Of course I ran the fuck away. If I had stayed and fought that guy they would NOT have waited, they would've fucking destroyed me, and he was acting like that wasn't the case.

People who call Invaders out on complaining are being absurd. These Phantoms and these Hosts are fucking faggots. Luckily, another red came in and handled that encounter, but seriously. They SEEDED me twice, they were going to dogpile me if I dropped my guard for even a second.

That would kill me. Projected heal on the other hand should be nerfed so that it can only heal after being thrown from a certain distance so that even if they try to catch it, you can still reliably punish the heal or running towards the heal wouldn't be worth it. If they're going to nerf meme arrow, they should just make sure unfaltering prayer isn't on for as long as you hold the bow. Everything else about lightning arrow is fair, I find the WA combo ridiculous.

Any tips?

If you don't care about SL a quality/FTH is doable around 180-200. If you want to be at 120 then yes it will be extremely lacking.

Well yeah. This is the main face of the Dark Souls audience. These are the type of people that are being fanserviced. Everyone else is suppose to please these kind of people and Bandai Namco encourages the online community to give newcomers a easy time. They're gimping the game so people who wouldn't spend more than 30 hours in the game to beat it and move on.

I'm going to unironically suggest something like Strength, Dex, or Quality/Refined warrior to carry you through each game.

Maybe if you want to spice it up, supplement him with some Faith. Intelligence not so much. Spellswords were only ever really that good in DaS2.

I suggest these builds because it'll give you the impression of a warrior wandering aimlessly throughout each and every age, getting progressively more haggard and broken as time goes on.

The problem is in the Ashes of Ariandel DLC.

You'd be an Unkindled, which is arguably fine, but might shake up your immersion. Unkindled are those Undead whom failed to link the fire. So it poses some questions about how you made the transition from DaS1 to 2 and then to 3, but to DaS2 to 3, honestly.

I'm into Dex recently in Dark 3. It really suits the hectic, almost bloodborne like pace that most encounters encourage.

The problem with Lightning arrow is that while all it's attributes makes it a above average spell on top of being able to be held, it can be used to trade attacks indefinitely which makes it THE best spell in the game. In other words, you don't need anything else or you could possibly survive off of just that one spell for all purposes.

Let's list off those great attributes
>great fp cost/damage investment
>easy to use
>decent casting speed that can be spammed faster than the other basic projectiles
>can be held
>can be combined with unfaltering for a failsafe trade
>great range and projectile speed
Now give me one spell that can rival these benefits compared to the other spells; for both pve and pvp. The fact that it can be held with unfaltering turned on indefinitely gives a REALLY good trading option for any faith build without having to sacrifice speed. It's only downfalls are the 35 faith investment but since the damage mediocre at that point then you might as well go full faith and do better.

I wish they balanced lightning miracles better. The reason Lightning Arrow is so ubiquitous is because it just invalidates lightning spear completely.

You cannot ever hit anybody who isn't AFK with spear. It's impossible. The wind-up is too long, the projectile is too slow, even trying to use it is asking to be punished for your entire healthbar. The only use for it is to throw one as an opener and then trick people into jumping into your Lightning Stake because the cast animation is so similar. The risk:reward is skewed horribly, while Lightning Arrow is much more in-line with what you would expect.

It's a shame because spear miracles are cool as fuck and this has been an issue all the way back to DAS1

This is a good transition, implying a bit of continuity between your characters in DaS2 and 3. You could go with Lucatiel's set, and just do a full cosplay. At least in 3.

It sets a precedent for where you might have gotten the clothes and it's also a subtle nod to another hollow who went on a long and arduous journey, wrestling with memory loss in the process, which is an implication that becomes extremely poignant in the context of 3's DLCs.

But if you don't want to do what DaS3 does best with its inordinate amount of callbacks, try Mirrah Chain armor and gloves with Lothric Knight helm and legs. It looks pretty cool.

The fact is that Das2 on release was a fucking mess and the vast majority of fans consider it the worst in the series. It's not at all a bad game, and people calling it "shit" are either stupid or just trying to wind people up

The fact is though, Das2 was unbalanced as fuck on release, and had some really shitty level design combined with largely forgettable characters and bosses

Scholars rectified a lot of the flaws though and the DLC's where ace (with the exception of Blue Smelter nigger and the shitty gauntlet leading up to him)

Name a souls game that wasn't.

Bonus points if you dont mumble over yourself and say Bloodborne.

>and the vast majority of fans consider it the worst in the series
This would've been a great argument when the series was DeS+DaS+DaS2, but you know now that all people value from the series is blatant fanservice. It can't be subtle, it can't be vague, it can't three or four times total, it has to be the entire fucking game bottom to top and it has to be literally Andre, or literally Anor Londo, or literally Gwyn with literal le sad piano. And even then, chances are, it's still too complicated for the average fan. Reminder that well over half the people walking into Aldrich's room didn't know who Gwyndolin was, or worse, didn't recognize that it was his corpse being puppeted from atop Aldrich. Abyss Watchers is considered "good fanservice" in the game by vets because it ISN'T Andre or Anor Londo.

DLC? "Back to DS1!"

Oh, neat.

DLC2? Ringed City? Houses the Dark Soul? What's this gonna be all about?

Oh, it's a city that was built in DS1 and never ever mentioned anywhere with a daughter that was never ever mentioned anywhere because the game spent too long jerking DS1 off to actually develop any stories itself. Everyone loves Sulyvahn because he's the only actually original character in the entirety of DS3, and the guy's lore is literally "had pet slug; didn't like gods; kinda an asshole"

If you hate DS2, great. If your entire existence is dedicated to rimming DS1, great. Don't fucking even remotely pretend that DS3 isn't the worst game in the series, because even though it looks pretty and has le nostalgic morphball animations, it's hot, hot HOT garbage. Hot garbage. Steaming.

That's true only if you're particularly good at the game, though.
Take Friede and Midir. Once you watch a strategy for Midir you can beat him in 3 tries max, with Friede not getting hit is still very hard.

It is. It really is the absolute worst game in the series, but with that being said, I still enjoy it. I played it all weekend. Holiday included.

The thing is, it's better than Dark Souls 1 in certain areas. But the overall package loses out to both of its predecessors under any sort of scrutiny. But with THAT being said, The Ringed City is fine.

It does not deserve to be lambasted for the introduction of the eponymous city. Especially not for what you're implying. That kind of thinking doesn't promote growth or creativity. It looks like it does, but it doesn't.

You're going to end up negating your own point bashing an otherwise fine DLC for such a stupid reason. A much more pressing fact is that it had no cutscene.

Its range isnt as long, but I believe it swings just as wide. Most of the damage is in the beam, and especially when charged. The beam travels far and fast when charged too, so its not bad for free aiming.

I have been the host attacker (no summons, ever) for over 50 times and its not a 1v3... if you're not complete trash you can kill the first guardian before the spear spawns... you have 15 +10 estusses and he 0, he either has to sacrifice SL increase in order to get healing abilities or you have to be bad/unlucky enough to let the second guardian heal him.

As a solo attacker i have a 95% Winrate and as a boss against a summonless attacker i have a 65% winrate...

Saint's Bident is bad still. Wolnir's Sword is kinda bad too. Lowish AR even with 60 faith and it can't be buffed, the weapon art is garbage too and doesn't scale well with anything.

Sunlight Straight Sword and Dragonslayer's axe are all you need. Crucifix is really good if you're more focused on strength with min faith and using dark blade.

>>174346310

Depends what SL you're playing at and what weapons you plan on using. At SL 99 I run with 40 str because I don't have to worry about any full havel abominations so reaching hardcapped strength isn't a requirement. 25 vit + prisoner's chain gives you access to tons of armor/weapon combos if you need poise and still gives you plenty of points to put into other areas. 18 dex is the best place to stop so you can use Harald CGS, which is light enough to let you stack poise really easily and only has about 20-30 less AR than a Heavy Exile.

Why do so many people use the Matthew Matosis critique as a way of saying DS2 is bad?

Seriously. It seems like most of the people who don't like DS2 will just link that video, and think that's the final word in the matter. But, after hearing about it for a long time, I finally checked out the video, and it's terrible.

It's extremely poorly written. It's biased. It's nitpicky. It demonstrates a lack of knowledge about the game's lore and themes. It uses strawman arguments. It only looks at one possible interpretation of things, the one which best suits the point he's trying to make.

It completely ignores the flaws of Dark Souls 1, whether they be problems that Dark Souls 2 also has, or ones that it fixed. It ignores the things that Dark Souls 2 did better than Dark Souls 1.

So, why do so many people use this as their only argument as to why DS2 is bad? I'm genuinely curious.

Because /v/ has a habit of not caring about the source or validity of what's being said, as long as what's being said is 'X game is bad'. That's the entire point of that board now.

Matthewmemetosis's video is pretty shit - There's a whole lot of ways you can legitimately critique DaS2, even if you enjoy the game, but he zoned in on some of the most asinine shit ever.

Dude, a game being consistent and having reoccurring characters or locations isn't "fanservice". Das2 also had elite knight set and Claymore, OMG fanservice !

> Don't fucking even remotely pretend that DS3 isn't the worst game in the series
Why would i? it's the best in the series. Anyone saying Demons is the best is a hipster nostaliga fag and anyone saying 2 is the best is a retard. Das1 i can understand, it had the best lore, the best world and probably the most memorable bosses and characters

Even looking away from the havelmonsters and shitty SM that plagued pvp until Scholars, even the pve was disappointing for a lot of reasons. Also, no orbs meant that you had to farm for fucking cracked orbs and between that and the retarded SM, it made pvp backwardsass and almost non exitant. I'll admit that arena pvp in scholars was enjoyable, but before that it was 100% pure cancer

>>174350130

I've been using it recently. It's pretty good but only really works on a quality build and its strong attacks are really easy to predict and punish. another thing is that it doesn't have the range and hyperarmor of things like greatmaces or ultra greatswords so you can't trade with those.

Overall it's a nice weapon though.

Old Wolf has the healing/damage buff effect that was recently buffed and a better WA than Carthus. The WA also has some weird iframe effect during the first swing, either that or it drastically shrinks your hitbox. It's also stylish as fuck.

Parrying should be reworked.
Parrying doesn't stun anyone in real combat. It only reduces the durability of the weapons. Why don't they add that to dark souls?

To the anon asking about his faith/bident build, if you're going 125 you need 60 fth.
50 is what I run at sl75. I suggest upgrading the Sunlight Straightsword and the crusifix of the mad king, as both are the supreme faith weapons, but the bident is fine if you love the weapon. It's very pretty after all.

Different WA flavor and tactics. Exile nets you more range and possibly damage while Harald gives you a underused, quick chomping attack you can quickly mix in your onslaught and accumulate combo damage with. The range on Harald's WA is shit but it's migrated by the other benefits (quick af and can be held) over exile's bigass spin slashes that can be punished.

If you really want 4 points in attunement on a melee build then go for it.

>>174353470
A bunch of the chip damage you take is going to come from fire damage. Extra stability is good, but unless you're going to be tanking multiple hits, mitigating the chip damage is more important.

You could also just grab the Dragonhead Greatshield if you have the spare Vit, that one has the best fire damage mitigation in the game. You take 33% less chip from fire than BKS for almost as much stability.
>>
>>174353651
I suppose it's personal preference.

My quality build started as a warrior and I never find myself wishing my FP bar was larger. WAs don't consume much FP at all and ashen estus is permitted in duels/arena.

Maybe if you use a weapon that relies heavily on its WA to be effective...

I guess the knight does have an attunement slot though. So there's that.

Are you just starting the DLC for the first time on this NG+7 character? If not, then you should have gotten the shield on a previous run through the DLC. Otherwise, what the fuck are you doing playing the DLC on NG+7, it's balanced for NG only, even NG+ turns a bunch of shit into one-shot.

Because seeing Lucatiel partially hollowed is ~tragic~ and like good story telling or something.

DS2 has the worst NPC stories by far.

I guess we can just assume Midir is to blame, but an item description would be nice.

Excuse me?
Here is the story for all DS3 NPC
Find NPC
He teleports to your hub
You do his/their quest
He/she kills themselves

Fucking Greirat still goes on and on about how you should keep the ring even after he's return from Irythyll

Wow, such a high calibur of writing, Vendrick and Aldia's story alone elevates 2 over 3.

Can someone explain to me who the fuck started the "Velka is important" meme. She pops up on some item descriptions and is the lore sprinkles on top of the whole sin mechanic, why the fuck do people drone on about her endlessly.

Priscilla is Painterfu's mother. Yorshka is likely Painterfu's sister who was raised by Gwyndolin.

Some of the "e-celebs" (mainly Plagiarizing Nintendo Fanboy) spread the rumors that she would be important in AoA, and that turned out to be completely false.

The Deep, the Profaned Flame, and Sulyvahn aren't old.

Velka was LITERALLY never important and she NEVER will be, so get fucked.
Got me on the serpents, Yorksha, and my lady.

But it was an enlightening look into what life was like for the first men and their part in the war with the dragons. It's nice.

Which items?
>>
>>174355074
Agreed. Literally the only pre-SOTFS DS2 character whose name I can even recall is Shanalotte.
>>
>>174355074
Vendrick and Aldia had an intelligible story prior to any DLC, though. Getting to talk to them just gave them some personality.

The Deep isn't the Abyss, the locusts aren't the creatures nibbling at Irina's flesh and the white locust pal we get even says this.

>>174354032
Congratulations on discovering now what has been determined ages ago: Luck is completely fucking worthless as a stat. At your very BEST you'll get relatively comparable damage with 40/40/40 STR/DEX/LCK, but with the added bonus of 30+ wasted levels. It barely has any effect on bleed buildup, its damage is underwhelming at best, and the one luck scaling weapon in the game worth a damn is only marginally better than any other straight sword.

It's outright the most pointless attribute in the game.

Undead Settlement + High Wall
SL 20 & +3 weapon

Is this still true for invasions?
>>
>>174356828
high wall most people are just gonna breeze through at base level

>>174356828
Up until +5 I think they changed it to plus or minus 1 upgrade level, so you would be better off with either +2 or +1.
