Any thoughts about pic rel? Should I change something?
I'm thinking about changing the demon scar to pontiff knight curved sword, I think it may look a bit more like the one Soul of Cinder uses, but it has even lower damage on that build, and it would require me to either put on a havel ring or increase vitality.

That's called muling, and no, it's perfectly safe.

>>176046608

>I think I'll still stick to the Washing Pole. You just can't go wrong with it.

If you do go pure Sharp/Dex because since the Sharp buff all katanas save Frayed Blade and Darkdrift work best with pure Dex.

>Why is the Pontiff Knight Curved Sword so high? Am I missing something?

It's always been the longest range curved sword when twohanded and it wasn't affected by the follow-up R1 nerfs of the heavy curved swords. It also got a huge buff on the WA that makes the Frost Blade on it activate right away giving it immense mid to long range potential with a huge hitbox active at any time which complement the great curved sword 2HR1s perfectly.

>>176045228
Don't care if you're a boy, really nice feet!

>>176046692
Practice. There's really no other way.

If you're getting partial then you're likely parrying too late. Try parrying a bit earlier.

You need to be able to predict when your opponent will attack in order to parry effectively in PvP. i.e. if your opponent is rolling into you there's a good chance he's going for a rolling attack so be ready to parry when you see him roll.

>>176046692
I don't know if it differs between people with different connection speeds, but I can't even parry UGS in PvP on reaction. I have to predict when someone attacks, so It's usually only possible if someone spams light attack, running attack or rolling attack in a very obvious way. Even then I fail some of them.

>>176046608
rkpgs is top tier as a gank spanker in anywhere except pontiff at 100 or less, otherwise it's pretty good for bosses???

>>176046748
Nah, it was the shield. The katana guy was mad at the shield guy because the shield completely invalidates his cheese tactics.

I was talking more about 1v1 duels against decent players.

I know that ultras shine in invasions where you're fighting multiple braindead retards but you have zero chance against a competent player in a duel with an ultra.

>>176047087
>Thanks anon. Might try out the Pontiff Knight's. Sounds cool.

If you do I recommend a 27/40 Quality build with 18 INT for Snap Freeze or points in Faith for regen/healing miracles since the difference between full 40/40 and that with Pontiff Curved Sword is about 10 AR at most when two handed.

>>176047146
see>>176047241

I assume it's because invasions are so chaotic and there are so many random factors going into the equation that it's hard to accurate assess what is consistently effective and what isn't.

Reminds of that dude with his 60 INT twink sorcerer one-shotting people with CSS in invasions.

That kind of shit will never work against experienced players in a 1v1 situation.

>>176047087
Sad, but true. Most people would rather sit around and bitch that others should change rather than making a simple change to make their own experience better.

Can you still save backup on PC?

>>176047441

Yes, just go to %AppData%>Dark Souls III and get the DS30000 from within its folder and copy it, that's your save files at that moment.

>>176047319
I get that you dislike me, kiddo, but what is wrong with the build in your honest opinion?

>>176047404
That actually sounds like a really cool build both thematically and in terms of gameplay.

I was getting a bit bored with my quality build.

What the fuck do I even do with straight swords? Feels impossible to win with this poise meta going on (I usually play str builds myself)

>>176047021
tripcode is the numbers used to identify certain users by their names, so that the site is no longer anonymous for them. A tripfag is someone who uses a tripcode.

The reason they're hated is because 4chan's entire purpose is to be an anonymous image board. You can say whatever shit you want and 5 minutes later it doesn't matter. When you use a tripcode you're trying to build a reputation on a site where reputation doesn't matter and is a purely negative thing.

>>176047419
what the fuck does that have to do with a guy not liking someone who used a shield? Are you retarded?

Thinking of making a twink build, not sure wether to go with a normal longsword or some ultra weapon so I can stomp gank spanks

>>176047594
Straightswords are good for roll catching, punishing whiffs and guardbreaking turtles.

Straightswords are not good for R1 mashing into hyper armor. Don't do that.

I know it's hard for a STR player to comprehend that there are strategies in PvP beyond simply mashing R1 repeatedly...

>>176047671
I think the point was that the guy was salty because he lost, not because you used a shield.

It really is, I recommend Witchtree Branch if you go the Snap Freeze route, here's the optimal build set-up for this, checking mugen you only lose 9 AR by not going full 40 STR while 2H softcaps everything for this while not even getting to 120 yet so you have plenty of room to do what you want with it. The Snap Freeze combined with the huge Frost on PKCS' WA pairs great with the defense penalty inflicting on players and PKCS fast moveset.

Just attack between their HA frames. A straight sword is generally much quicker so you can interrupt or punish their swings.

Don't aim for trades.

>>176047662
No, the point is that you are not "forced" to use an identity. The problem is that shit posters take advantage of that. I originally started using the trip because shitposters would try to imitate me and others when we were trying to organize co-op and PvP and the like.

You still see idiots trying to imitate me even after the tripcode.

PvP is mostly just spacing and timing.

If I'm fighting someone with a slow weapon I just get right up in their face. I just roll through all their attacks and punish them when they do something unsafe.

It just comes with experience from facing the same weapons over and over. Eventually nothing that they do can surprise you.

COME ONE COME ALL BECAUSE THERE'S A TOURNEY ON THE HORIZON

NOBLES VERSUS PEASANTS: /dsg/ showdown

Participants will be matched up with others who sign-up and fight for the claim to be /dsg/'s champion on May 19th, 5pm PST. The winner and runner-ups will receive prizes including Steam games and being better than everyone else who fought.

Sign-up sheet:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScKzpuOdtJXeAb-4EoXlKN0cd9uDXNtzfVZmsIZgUNcFe3r7g/viewform?usp=sf_link

For the sake of organization either your Steam ID or a Discord ID will be needed to sign-up. If using only one Steam IDs will be organized via that channel and Discord users can join the accompanying server in the link above to ensure we don't have last minute drop-outs with no explanation.

RULES:
-There will be two teams: Peasantry and Nobility. Once you’ve made the choice you can’t go back. Both teams have a certain list of approved weapons you can check on the sign-up sheet. Not following the rules results in a disqualification (and public shaming)
-Maximum Soul Level of 80 allowed. Someone with CE open will be monitoring all players to make sure this rule and others aren't broken.
-The starting location will be High Wall, followed by Undead Settlement and ending at Lothric Castle.
-Fights are best of 3
-Each fight is 2 minutes long, the one with the most % health left at the end will win if both are alive.
-Only two Ashen Estus sips per fight, any more and your win will not count, initiating a rematch. Do this twice and you are disqualified
-All Regen items and spells are banned to disincentive passive shittery. This includes Sun Princess Ring, spells like Bountiful Sunlight, and anything infused with Blessed.
-Normal FC rules still apply such as no healing items. Fight rotation will be determined once brackets are set.
-Requirements to join: Discord and/or Steam ID for organization purposes.
If people don't respond a week prior to the tournament and they've signed up, they're disqualified

Well guerilla hit and run tactics are your best bet. That's how the Viet Cong sent the US army home with its tail between its legs.

Never get into fights that you know you can't win.

If they've cleared out the whole levels then you can still try sniping them from a distance with obscuring ring or getting them to chase you off ledges with the silvercat ring. It depends on how dumb they are.

Otherwise just BC out. It'll save you getting all salty when they gank you and point down.

>we never did get that giant dragonbro boss

He could have been the test you had to pass to join the dragon covenant ;_;

>>176048381
Is this because the stat actually changes, or because of different ways PvE vs PvP calculation works?

In DS2 the rings were weak in PvP because player attacks were more about AR than multipliers, but in PvE enemy attacks involved higher multipliers, so the ring of steel protection worked really well against them. The ring's effect didn't change, it was the ratio of multipliers vs flat damage.

108 Bleed per hit on 50 Luck, means about 4 hits for a bleed, sometimes the full WA is even enough.

Ideally you only want to use a trip when you are posting something that is tied to your identity such as if you're doing a series of posts around the same theme or releasing info under it. Even then you don't really need it though since people like Zullie don't trip and are recognizable just by the images they post.

THAT YOU KNOW OF.
Most hackers aren't the blatant bighead, humanity-stealing, instacursing arsehats. They run around with higher stats than they should for their SL. They tweak their weapons a little so they do more damage. They're more subtle.
But I guarantee you you've seen hackers. You just didn't know they were hacking.

that would be wild

How much time do you spend at Pontiff dueling/invading?

That's where I've encountered the most hackers.

That said, it's not that bad. I have over 800 hours in the game and I've only encountered maybe a dozen hackers.

It's hard to tell sometmes since I don't run the CE myself.

>>176050296
If you did, your delusions about only having encountered maybe a dozen would quickly be shattered.

Hit them between swings. Roll through their attacks, and try to time your roll so the end of your iframes matches up with their swing if you can, that way you can attack sooner after their attack. You can also block and shield poke.

Since Poise is only active on their attacks, you should be able to interrupt them with proper timing.

Man, I thought it would be fun playing a regen build but regen in das3 is actually completely worthless.
Unless you run away for minutes at a time there's no way regen will be advantageous for you, and even if you manage to run away for long enough, the other player will no longer want to fight you (because you're being a fag).

It's still cheating. They're still unfairly giving themselves advantages they wouldn't have playing the game normally. It may be enough to let them win more fights than they otherwise would, even if they don't specifically win against you.

>>176050715
Well memed, friendo. You certainly coaxed us into a snafu assuming you were playing on PC.

>>176050580
Well, yes.

Regen options are a developer in-joke. They're blatantly garbage and you should be able to see that instantly if you ever try to use them, but they were left in so that people could laugh at babbies who can't finish the level with 10 estus sips and need to sit around like retards until their health comes back.

Every method of regaining health outside of estus and embering is absolute trash for this exact reason.

>>176050713
>Nobody wants to fight someone who just runs away until his health bar slowly refills every couple of minutes.
That's what every pvp experience is in this game except instead of regening slowly they regen 15 times very very quickly

By good player I mean the guy with more experience, knowledge and the ability to apply it. He will always win against a scrub.

What weapon has the largest range currently in DS3? Is it the pitchfork?

>>176050543
You might not, but a lot of people do, especially if you only lose a duel by 100 hp or so. A lot of people will also switch on infinite iframes or some such BS, if you do something they dislike, which also ruins the experience.

Such as that WebM that was posted awhile back where the poster instant cursed someone just because they were using Gael's Sword.

geez

>>176050812
Doesn't matter.

Do you really think a match is going to come down to 100 damage?

If they really need the edge to beat me then so be it. I guess maybe 0.00001% of the matches that I lost were due to the fact that my opponent had slightly bossted stats or weapon damage.

I'm still not going to start cheating just because other people are doing it.

You're just using an arbitrary number.

Do you have a point that you're trying to make?

>>176052140
You can punish rolls all day if you learn to play. Even with lag or not. You're just a shitter.

>>176052371
Yes. If you want a 1v1 honor duel with no estus then use the arena. Invasions are anything goes.

>>176052371
In a duel at Pontiff's? He's being an asshole.

In an invasion? Fucking deal with it, you think it's the host's job to just lie down and let you ream him up the ass?

High Wall FC is over once the current fighters are done, thanks to everyone for coming, this was a great FC today!

>>176052371
The pvp makes me want to kill myself.

Aldritch Faithful was fun because it was a 3v3 gangbang, but it seems dead now

Never

>>176051748
I can't be arsed to do the Moon greatsword I'm gonna just stick with the moon sickle and bow for now

What's the minimum SL I can invade with +5 weapons?

>>176052385
I've literally just tested this and no
you meet literally every possible type of build at 80, while 120 is spellblade or poise str

>>176052389
>>176052357
>>176052374

People are already getting triggered xD

>>176052174
Sure but what are you trying to do at 80? Duels or invasions? Invasions at 80 are kind of dumb since there aren't many places for it.

Duel meta is 120

>>176052459
don't you think the game would be better if like idk you were forced to fight back maybe once in a while?

>>176052554
plenty of duels at 80 my friend
group fights are slower tho

>>176052445
Im using the numbers that were posted earlier in the chain.

Whoever said 100 extra damage doesn't matter is a retard.

Thanks Host but once again I'm reminded of the phantom ranger. I'm not even talking about lag that made me get hit, but sometimes when I attack there's just so much phantom range.

>>176052543
Lying just makes you look salty and makes even less people care about your meme meta. I also play a pyromancer at level 120.

>>176052216
Your webm and your post do not correlate even slightly.

>>176052587
skull ring doesn't actually do anything

stop being happy

>>176051596
You're right, but "Heart and home" was Garl's line during that boss fight.

It's literally just the quote. By the way, Demon's is great and you're missing out. Try the large sword of moonlight.

>>176052371

Well I'm not a shitter so I just roll catch them

>>176052673
How many people do you honestly believe are hacking their weapons to do 100 extra damage per swing?

Like honestly, what kind of scrub would do this? Obviously only a bad player since he feels that he needs to cheat in order to win.

I have no problem at all beating bad players. Even if they did 500 extra damage per hit it wouldn't matter.

A good player wouldn't resort to cheating. At most he will just go full meta.

I did play Demon's Souls. I got a PS3 specifically for it.

Yeah yeah sure buddy - so you caught a roll and did at best maybe a quarter of their health bar. They're still rolling, they got 15 heals and you haven't even done enough damage with a hit for them to use one chug yet, you gonna roll catch them another 100 times and tell me you enjoyed it? I bet you dildo your ass and enjoy that too

Are you retarded?

My sole point is that an extra 100 damage per hit is not insignificant.

>>176052963
dildo is not a verb >_<

>>176053043

So close.

>>176052569
You're rudely invading the host's world and trying to kill him. He's allowed to do whatever it takes to survive. Just as you're allowed to do whatever it takes to kill him.

I want to be a dragonfag. Is RoSP worth using?

>>176052963
>t. I have no idea what roll catch is

>>176053198
>dragonfag

No to both.

>>176053043
I said an SS, not a SSS counterhit buffed with Oath and a 60 FTH Lightning Blade while wearing Lloyd's Sword Ring and whatever other buffs you've got going on an opponent with low absorption.

>take /dsg/'s advice and block gank squad hosts and meta shitters

>oh shit im retarded i'll just insinuate the other person isn't on the same page as me

what's a fun weapon that's not reliant on HA?

>>176053084
It's unlikely to be the deciding factor in a fight.

Give a scrub 100 extra damage on his weapon and he'll still lose against good players.

And as we've already established, only scrubs would hack their weapons to do more damage.

>>176053296
You can block players?

>>176053151
They shouldn't have gone human if they didn't want to end up in a situation fighting another player
Roll spam keep away should not be an option, and not only is it an option but it's the best option

>>176053312
If you know what it is then you understand what you said is dumb.

I bet you can't even explain what a roll catch is or how to execute a roll catch.

>ib4 w-well that wasn't me I was only pretending

Why do people even use dragonsis?

Does it give you more poise?

yes, but apparently only does like 3% extra damage
