How do you react if you keep invading the same person over and over and just wrecking them? Do you eventually give up and let them win?

I already saved Greirat and I'm at Anor Londo. I don't really feel like fighting Aldrich on my sorcerer (first time playing one in DaS3).

I won't mess anything up if I kill Yhorme instead and maybe do some Lothric Castle, right? I'm playing a Faithful anyway, so it feels slightly dumb to kill Aldrich, but I'll do it eventually. Just looking to mix things up slightly, play just a tad less linearly than I normally than I normally do.

+8 can only invade down to +6, you can only go +7 max to invade down to +5.

And at SL50+6 you can invade down to SL45+4, meaning that it's possible to catch people in Carthus and Smouldering Lake, where it's also fun to be an asshole.

It feels a bit too lacy to me. The Clandestine Coat isn't a perfect match, but it does have the same kind of style with the brooch, and the female version of it works a bit better than the male one would. I'll probably wind up messing around until I'm satisfied though.

Wooden has spin sweep, it doesn't have a silly attack where you spin around in a circle and then throw the hammer so hard in one direction that it pulls you off your feet and takes you sailing through the air with it.

You need to dodge through them from close up.
The "confirmation hit" with the stagger effect is about mid-way through the animation and MUCH smaller in hitbox size.

>>175635854

If you're using a Great Hammer against DUGS mash R1 as soon as they start the first L1 since the attack frames on it start late. Or you can punish the end of it of the DUGS user spaces poorly, it's basically standing right outside the front of the hitbox you drew in your pic and pressing R1 right as their momentum stops.

I'm just now noticing this. Is that due to Gael absorbing too much of the dark soul? That's my conclusion since Manus' is a primeval man, primeval men had pieces of the dark soul plus Manus practically represents darkness (abyss or whatever).

How do you think anything get's found out? Someone finds out about it by.....finding it. This always happens the very first time. Someone has to have found it to tell other people.

Which is what is happening ITT. Reddit will find out in another 2 weeks once it bubbles up from here to the normie surface as it always does.

As a complete scrub at melee builds, what should I be aiming for a typical greatsword build? I've been using exile gs so far, but I was thinking of using Profaned as my main once I reach the Pontiff.

Are the demon fists considered good weapons?

>>175638995

They're about as good as most fist weapons, which is to say, very reliant on the skill of the user. If you can manage to pull off a full WA with it and time their fall properly, it also combos well with the Demon's Greataxe WA to flatten them as they roll away.

Is it worth doing a twinaxe run? I'm gonna mule it to a new char

How does the drop system work in these games?

It seems to be somewhat fairly since I rarely get duplicates when farming for armor.

>>175639253
pretty straightforward

For damage stats, you have choice between str/dex or str/faith

for performance, get enough stamina for at least 4 r1 swings

Your go to rings are probably gonna be prisoner chains, ring of favor, ring of steel protection for poising through the enemy's nonsense.

>>175639716
Also by 4 r1 I mean 4 Ultra greatsword r1, not normal greatsword.

This is gonna be a 125 build btw. I have no idea how to build a midlevel UGS, but it should probably be common sense.

>>175639379
Im just saying that I only play warriors and I usually have 27 vit with medium heavy too medium heavy heavy armor so my defenses are solid and when Iw as fighting someone in the arena with either resin or a buff on his twin axes killed me in 2 combos

>>175640024
GRUUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOHHHH

>>175638859
either focus on str or dex for greatswords. Refined doesnt get good returns for the investment now. Get your minimum requirements and then decide to either go heavy or sharp.

Is it better to dedicate an entire run to using a specific weapon

or to just beat the game, get to 120 and then experiment with things in pvp

I think of a build idea dedicated to a specific weapon / weapon+spell combo, think of some fashion for it, make it in mugen to have it be as low SL as possible (98 at the most), think of a name for it (this part takes the longest), and then start the character. Usually finish it in one sitting.

It depends. Keep in mind, infinite respecs. So I tend to think about where I want to end up level-wise for a character in order to have a nice variety, and then pick a class off that where I know I can wield some good stuff at that level.

Of course there's a way back up. If you're in the little area with the last bonfire, drop off the side into the little cubby underneath it - that's where the angel summoner grub is - and use the roots to maneuver up into the first area. If you're in the swamp, run up past Zoey.

Can you drop covenant items for people? Like giving someone ears or tongues?

>>175642645

Greatsword is longer and has the same length as FUGS while weighing less and having more damage. Both Greatsword and CKGS also have the 2HR1>jumping attack true combo all vertical UGS have. CKGS has thrusting R2s though which is its main benefit.

>>175640186
What he's telling you doesn't really make sense, as the best GS's are not infusable anyway and scale with either Quality or INT/FTH. Of the few GS's that are infusable, Claymore is still better off Refined.
It's true that a lot of weapons are now better on pure Dex or Str builds, but that doesn't apply to GS's in particular.

I feel like the series had a fundamental change in boss fight design after the first Dark Souls

All the fights in Demon's / Dark felt intuitive, like you knew when attacks were coming and you know when it was relatively safe to attack. After that, everything feels like they intentionally design animations to fool you into thinking the boss will have a recovery phase after attacks when there's really potential for immediate followup

These things are designed by fucking satan himself.
The number of active frames on their attacks plus the wildly disjointed hitboxes is incredible.

I can throw on full havel's and their jump attack will still one-shot me.
Their swings in front of them regularly hit me standing behind them while slashing their backs.

Fighting the first one by Andre is fine but all of the rest are in ridiculously confined areas where the only way to avoid their attacks is to roll into them, but their attacks have so many frames after the animation ends that it's a complete crapshoot.

Jesus christ no wonder I've never used demon weapons in this game before, who the fuck put one of these in the middle of the shortcut to Bed of Chaos?

>>175644140
You can kill her after you marry Anri. You'll still be able to get Lord of Hollows because you're linking the flame with 8 dark sigils.

>>175644140
The only way to fail that ending is to remove your 8 Dark Sigils. Even if you kill her, she shows up in the ending.

So I just did some minor testing with this spell. Using two sub-100% physical block shields, I tested how much damage bled through with and without the buff, and it's actually sort of interesting.

Against a sword-wielding Lothric K***ht, their basic attack would normally do 42 damage through a 57% physical block shield (the Wooden Shield that comes stock on Mercenary class). Against the same shield with Magic Shield buff, that same attack did 29 damage. After some number crunching, it looked like Magic Shield increased the physical absorption of the shield from 57 to 70, so 13 points.

Next I tested it on the Iron Round Shield, which normally has 67% physical block. Without the buff, a poke from one of those spear hollows did 38 damage, with the buff it did 27. So Magic Shield raised the physical absorption from 67 to 74, 7 points.

Looking at it from the other side, the Wooden Shield went from letting through 43% of physical damage, to 30%. Iron Round Shield went from 33%, down to 26%. In both cases, it appears that Magic Shield reduced the bleed-through damage by around 30%. This means that Magic Shield is, numbers-wise, more powerful when used on a shitty shield.

I didn't test the buff to stability since there's no in-game way to tell how much stamina you currently have (maybe if you have Collector's Edition). For the time being, the only number we have is Fextra's, which claims that it adds 18 stability to a shield.

Which one looks better for my necromancer? I leaning towards the right one, even tho it halves my spell stock.

TVTropes.

Can someone post weapon tier list pic pls?

From my experience, Heysel Pick is fucking trash.
Not only does it only have the moveset of whacking someone with a catalyst, it does magic damage, so spit damage yadayadad.

>>175645650
Probably, unless you use it purely for the stability buff. It lasts for 60 seconds, so if you already have 100% physical block then you're taking less stamina damage from attacks (moreso if you're using a greatshield that already shrugs off most elemental damage).

By comparison, Great Magic Shield only lasts for 30 seconds for some fucking reason.

>>175645657
If it makes you feel better, I've gone through NG++ with a sl20 and nothing better than a +2 already on a different character. So yes, to answer your question. It's also really fun to do that.

>>175645793
It is pretty trash but cosplaying is fun to me.

No idea. They seem to be all over the place and had to ask for permission to do things constantly. I imagine their hands were tied.

PCs group shot, look at the quality of that sword.

Thorns Guantlets are pretty metal.

If I fight Wolnir now, will it break Anri's questline, or will I still be able to meet her in Firelink then Catacombs after doing Deacons?

Same, most of my characters are cosplays, although they're characters from other series.

>>175642649
Don't. Run an 100% droprate script instead and farm them. Generally scripts are much safer, which is why there are so many faggots running around with infinite HP/stam

>>175646014
Actually, you could keep those Guardian gauntlets.
It looks like the GLGS and the catalyst are growing from your hands.

Ironically better than soul sorceries because they deal partly physical

That may very well be true, but TVTropes is still a cesspool of idiocy.

Stand by their limp leg. Iirc they can't hit you there

>>175645982
Like I said, if you get behind them, the enormously broken hitbox on their forward swings will still hit you. And if you're locked on, their jump will completely fuck your camera.
Yet, if you don't lock on, you won't know what way they're jumping and can't determine where you should roll.
The jump also has way, WAY more active frames than it should. I've rolled through it an incredible number of times, stood up next to the demon while it was complete motionless, and been 100 to 0'd by nothing.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but in a small arena like the Anor Londo room, or worse, the Izalith bridge where you can fall right the hell off, it's basically up to whether or not the AI decides to spam jump attacks.

The Deprived
Giantdad
Hexer
Fallen Knight Dark Sword ToD user with a White, Gold and Blue summon coming out of his back

Game is about getting the Deprived "Host" through that shit alive. If he dies, you start again with the same levels, losing any souls you hadn't spent, only being able to get them back by clearing wherever you previously lost them. Areas are randomized upon death

Aim is to complete the game at the lowest level possible
