I liked how unlike the other games you could actually see your character get stronger
Covenants were fun too
Setting up traps as the rat king servant was great

>>182484562
dark souls 2 unironically, there is SO much variety and the game is actually balanced unlike the other 2. although, PvE is not as fun as the others because of level design flaws and gankspanks at every turn.

>>182484509
What the fuck is this

You got summoned for co-op, but the host had the Untrue White Ring on and two dark spirits with Untrue White and Untrue Dark with him to make it look like a normal gank? Were they gonna play through a portion of the level normally with you, only to stab you in the back while you're distracted, or were they just gonna give you a beatdown at the bonfire?

Regardless, nicely done

Blessed Artorias Greatsword build
Whip and Faith build
Greatclubber build
Spear Paladin build

Too many to pick from

no you fucking mongoloid it's the easiest fucking questline in the game, all you do is NOT offer your pale tongues or invade with the rosaria covenant on

>>182486537
Just don't offer Rosaria a Pale Tongue, it's that fucking simple.

yes u CAN still invade without it, but why would u, without following a guide? It's bullshit.

I wan't a cat ring, not a bunch of people with miyazaki's cock up their ass telling me japanese questwriting is excellent.

most active area to invade and at what level?
also what weapon should i use to be as cancerous as possible

>>182487601
You can still invade as a red with no covenant and get tongues, idort.

>>182487601
Literally wait 3 areas after rosaria and then you can get your obscuring ring

>>182488046
I'm not saying u can't, I'm saying that without a guide no one would complete the entirity of sirris her questline without triggering one of those things.

>>182488000
jesus you don't deserve these trips
you get a pale tongue as an invader no matter what, and if you ACTUALLY INVADED you'd see that (you even get forked tongues without the covenant on)
notice how Leonhardt doesn't even give you the key to get the REO or tell you to join rosaria until AFTER you get a pale tongue?
fuck you, stay retarded

>>182488000
>but why would u
Why would you think you need to invade with it?

>I wan't a cat ring
Go to ng+ like anyone else who failed the quest, holy shit.

>>182488175
Yeah they could, they could just not invade. Or invade but not stumble upon Rosaria. Or invade only as a purple.

Why is the Mastodon Greatsword so good?
Seriously, it's just super fun to use on a STR build, and it looks really good with golden armours like Syan's Armour and the Gyrm Heavy Helm.

>>182488217
>you get a pale tongue as an invader no matter what,
Actually, you don't get them if you invade as a purple or as a sunbro. Your point is totally valid but I'm going to pick at nits because I'm an autist.

the silvercat ring is special, she gifts it to you as a reward for aiding her in defeating Creighton when you didn't have to
her questline is actually fucking good, and if you don't do it you don't deserve the ring anyway

>>182489569
Then let me put it another way.

Dark Souls has never been a game that just hands shit to you. You have to work for it, and maybe make mistakes that fuck you over for the rest of the run. If you don't like it, don't play the game you whiny bitch baby.

For fuck's sake DS1 had way more punishing questlines. You could lock yourself out of the red eye covenant without even realizing it and the NPC that heads it exists.

>>182489564
Don't worry my son, this is not the Nightmare known as Trash Souls 2

>>182489697
I get that but why wouldn't they just move an aggrod version of her to yorska so u can kill her for the items?

>>182489865
Yes but DS1 is very old so I forgive it for making mistakes like that, I expected 2017 games to not exclude you from pvp-viable items for an entire playthrough just because you hit a trigger, really makes it so u need a guide if u want these gimmick rings.

can someone mule me a couple items on PS4 please?

>>182489880
Because if they did then what would be the point of doing the questline?

>>182490030
>mistakes
You're just a shit gamer. Dark Souls was not made to appeal to you. If you don't like it, fuck off.

>>182488808

I gave up on non glass cannon sorcery when I realized that crystal longsword does similar damage and has a better moveset than flashsword at 60 int with rings

>>182489564

>Because if they did then what would be the point of doing the questline?

>You're just a shit gamer. Dark Souls was not made to appeal to you. If you don't like it, fuck off.
Dark Souls appeals a lot to me, otherwise I wouldn't be here, I just don't like this specific aspect, no need to get all black 'n white.

What goes better with full fallen knight and dark sword? shield of want or grass crest?

>>182490169
If you want to use the swordceries try a Heysel Pick or Immolation Tinder build.

>>182490030
It's not the end of the world, dude. Either rush NG+ or invest in some INT and cast spook before a fall.

>>182487775
Hexer is better for PvP since it fucks everybody who's not also a hexer or pyro, but they're roughly the same viability for PvE.

Either take enough STR to 1hand Blacksword with a staff, or enough STR/DEX to 1hand MLGS with Wisdom.

>>182490525
>Rush NG+
Makes enemies fighting me when I get invaded stronger
>Invest in some INT

You kinda need a guide if you want to do the quests. The game is not clear at ALL about what the consequences are for anything.

Like Anri. You can go to Smoldering Lake and never see Horace. Then if you spot Anri on the ledge and go talk to him, you'd have no reason NOT to tell of Smouldering Lake cause you wouldn't know Horace is hostile. Or you might think Horace is Yuria's person who will guide Anri.

Is humanity fair because its slow to fully heal?

Too rare to use in PvE as death isn't a big penalty. If you're playing with permadeath rules you'll want to use them. Too good and too rare to use in PvP and will instantly mark you as a cheater even if the items were legit. Many players have a stack of their own of 99 of both of them to use in return.

Velka was Gywn's wife.
It makes sense that one of their sons would have such a prominent connection with sin/punishing sinners. The Book of the Guilty further suggests that Velka and the Darkmoons were related, saying that Velka oversaw a list of sinners that would ultimately face the Blades. Same thing with Indictments.
The complete absence of anything relating to her in Anor Londo can actually still be explained fairly easily. In DS2, the "first sin" is more or less hinted at being Gwyn's decision to link the fire and artificially prolong their age. This would have no doubt made Velka appalled, having someone so close to her commit such a terrible sin against the order of the world. It makes sense that she would have cut ties with Gwyn and his family and bailed out entirely, taking everything with her. This would actually explain why she's considered a "rouge deity" (from Vow of Silence in DS1), and why so many things related to Velka are in Ariamis, which is essentially a place for things that don't belong elsewhere or have been hidden/thrown away.

There's cut content that says Velka and Gwyndolin were supposed to be rivals of a sort, but I don't think that inherently disproves any of this. Either way, I don't think cut content is exactly cannon.

Vaati would be proud.

Okay. You can only choose one to be canon. Dark Souls 2 or Dark Souls 3. With Dark Souls 2 you get a lot of relative ambiguity and hope for a meaningful future where you can fix the world. With Dark Souls 3 you get Miyazaki pissing all over the fans in a deliberate attempt to kill peoples' interest so he never has to make another one.

You know that having a strong opinion on a videogame youtuber, regardless if its positive or negative just HAVING an opinion on this sort of shit makes you yourself a "numale" beta loser, right? Do you realize this?

>>182494384
Humanity is really easily punishable, even if they manage to get the heal you'll probably still be able to backstab them so the heal is mostly negated.

Divine Blessing and the Mushroom are kinda bullshit though since it's faster than Estus AND heals you completely. But hey, if other people can get 99 of them, so can you.

>>182495335
3 but I disregard your definition

how are you supposed to counter shield turtles? Every WA that is supposed to break/bypass shields and kicks are too slow (because lol, this is roll souls), and knight slayer's ring does fuck all, even with ultra weps

is everyone basically expected to run an offhand MHS and poke them to death?

>>182495378
I disagree with that, I still think it's a disadvantage for the host to be in a world with ng+ enemies.
You're very immature btw

>>182495282

>How is this supposed to be fair?
It's not, those items are too good, especially the mushrooms. If someone eats a mushroom it's better to just not attack them and wait out the healing effect. DBs can be defeated by chain backstabbing, but if you can't do that the player eating DBs is basically invincible. It takes only three DWGR flips and a DB to safely restart a fight. Estus and Humanity are slow enough to be interrupted by kicks or backstabs.

DB/shrooms being limited as a balance is a bad idea, since it's easy as fuck to spawn them, dupe them. They should have longass animations, like the red water from 2 but slower. Humanity is somewhat punishable, healing close to a player is a guaranteed backstab
>>182495709
AI will never and has never been an issue. The host doesn't even have to fight the enemies. If you're so bad at pvp you have to gank, just clear the area before embering and summoning

>>182495432
Dark Souls 3 is "I'm going to piss over everything you loved, tell you every bad ending is canon, and that everything you did amounts to nothing and there's nothing you can do about it."

Just bringing this up because I wanted to know other people's thoughts on a certain modder to be changing some pvp elements of Ds1 for the sake of balance but he is leaving those healing items as is on live, I was not sure how to feel about the lack of the change, or no talk about limitations on these items for pvp.

>>182495861
If I was talking to somebody in real life and they said they loved pewdiepie, Id lose a little respect for them. If that same person however told me they HATED pewdiepie, Id lose just as much respect for them, maybe even more honestly.

>>182496121
>As I'm not Swedish, that doesn't appeal to me.
Is this "go back to /pol/" bait? if so It's too obvious.

>>182494384
Divine blessings and mushrooms should have never existed or you should be able to buy infinites because it allowed people to mule / ce a 99 stack and then go "nuh uh I totally played through the game 30 times to get them legit"

Meanwhile in BB the only healing item you can get outside of vials is a tube of menstruation blood you can only hold 1 of and can't put any in your storage. Considering how shit they are I'd allow for storage of 5 of them.

>>182495302
>n DS2, the "first sin" is more or less hinted at being Gwyn's decision to link the fire and artificially prolong their age.
that's what most people thought but it also struck me as odd since it happened strictly after the witch created/became the bed of chaos, which we also know is a grave sin. after trc, we know that the first sin, what aldia was talking about, was branding mankind with the dark sign.

Knight Slayer's Ring does plenty you retard. You guardbreak greatshields in 3 hits with an ultra weapon while using it, almost always.

Alternatively, anything with Shield Splitter/Blind Spot

>>182496149

The animations should be slower. DB cures status effects, so it will still be different from Humanity. Mushrooms should be really slow, something you have to really plan ahead before using.

Hi guys, humble bundle scrub here (DS2).

In Forest of Giants, just got to a part where an eagle or some shit drops a huge guy in armor, who proceeds to rek me.

Should I have killed him for the ring? Didn't wanna do it, seemed like a dick move

>>182499923
>Would anything have changed if I killed him first try?

If I remember correctly you can get a ring earlier than normal if you kill him there.

Best way to get 30 sheckles?
Invading or should I just get summoned as a friendly phantom and betray the host at a bad time? Is anyone even stupid enough to trust a purple?

I accidentally killed the emerald harald. Can I respawn her with an ascetic or am I fucked?

>>182500136
If you have the obscuring ring you could just invade and try and take out a ganker's phantoms since that can get you a shackle

I kinda miss upgrading armors. I think they've gone a little too far to make sure hosts don't get twinked.

>>182500294
So just one phantom, and it doesn't matter which type?

>>182500175
In DS2, every NPC in the game will spawn a gravestone after a set amount of time in-game has passed. You'll be able to interact with her normally at the grave, but at the cost of souls.
It can take several hours for the grave to appear. For the Emerald Herald, it's 5 hours of in-game time, which is shitty but also the only way.

>>182500316

can I go back to firelink shrine from anor lando without going through O&S first?

>>182506804
Yes. Head back to the demon who flew you their and press the action/accept button to fly back to sens fortress

>>182507169
ash is actually very soft.
You ever run your fingers on the ash under the barbecue grill after it's all burned out and cooled off? Feels like ultra fine sand.

>>182504765
Invading is part of the experience you shitter

If you run into the same player multiple times is it okay to add them as friends on steam?
I don't wanna seem like a creep since they're a girl probably.

Are enemies removed from an area after you're killed/kill them too much?

>>182507860
No, most respawn after a bonfire sitting

>>182507742
I am, because Lorian's are the closest I can get to a colour match while still having some sort of cloth.

>>182507949
I keep getting killed by those big guys 4u at Heide's Tower of Flame and now one of them is gone

>>182508162
Enemies despawn in DaS2 because the game is SHIIIIIIIIIIT

>>182507860
Are you talking about King's Field on your game boy color? No?

If sotfs, then yes.

>>182508162
DS2 enemies despawn after about 15 or so kills

It's the game's way of telling you that you're shit and you've spent too much time failing to complete one area, so it's easier now.

Aight thanks. I got a sweet armor off him before he went away anyways.

Will he never spawn again? I don't like that

>>182508162
Join the champion covenant in majula and enemies will never despawn.

>>182508904
Doesn't that forbid me playing coop? Heard something like that

>>182508631
You can burn Bonfire Ascetics to put a level into New Game+ difficulty, which will respawn all the enemies (and usually add new ones). Will be necessary later to acquire certain weapons/spells in an NG play through.

But seriously, you've spent too much time there. Kill the bosses and move on, or choose a different path.

You posted that before.

Alright, thanks.
>But seriously, you've spent too much time there. Kill the bosses and move on, or choose a different path.
Yeah I just kind of threw myself to the wall and hope I stick. I'll try harder now.

I don't think I have any other path right now. Other than using the soul of the Last Giant to buy those petrify curing branches and going to where I saw the statues (I think that's how that would work anyways=

>>182492546
I can't shake the feeling that Yorshka is Gwyndolin's daughter...
You could argue that both are a little bit autistic and she doesn't understand the family relationship when Gwyndolin mentions "Father Gwyn" and "Sister Gwynevere" and she thinks its some sort of title so she repeats those phrases exactly as she heard them. As for who the mother is? I don't know, Priscilla maybe? That would give the posibility that the painting girl in Ariandel is also Gwyndolin's daughter

Damn, time just keeps flying by.

>>182509867
Nonono, Gwyndolin is the mother. You should be asking who the father is.

>>182509060
I makes the game a fuckload harder AND prevents all cooperative summons (even NPCs). It's not for new players.

>>182509867
I like thinking that painter is descended from Priscilla, and Priscilla's mother was the painter of the Ariamis world as to give her daughter a home.
There's someone that looks like an older but dead Painter behind Ariandel too, after the bonfire to Dreg Heap. Maybe Painter's mother

Is the Falchion still OP in DS1?

>>182509831
The Giant dropped the Soldier Key, which opens most of the locked doors within FoFG. The next boss in that area is behind one of them, which opens up a new area beyond.

I want to use a curved sword in ds1 for pve but I'm not sure which
Scimmy is cooler than Falchion but it's worse
I could use the weird ass one found in Blighttown or go grab a Murakumo off of the big spooks
bls help this poor anon with no decision making capabilities

>>182510152
Ooh, that, I forgot. I should take a look later.

>>182484208
Ok it's enough.
Lets clear one of the greatest questions in Dark Souls history:
Why do Giants suddenly have an Asshole as face in Dark Souls 2?

>>182510443
Design was changed at the absolute last second. In-game lore, maybe these giants are a different race from the other giants we've seen.

Anyone wanna drop me a hornet ring?
Im doing a low level cancer build and cant be bothered to fist dancer, not-seath and champ to death for one dumb ring

Is there ever any reason to go past 60 in a damage stat?

>>182510724
80 Dex for maximum Sharp scaling and 66 STR if you want a couple more AR from the 2H bonus.

>it's a hodrick kills sirris before I even get in obscuring ring range episode

why did they nerf friendly npc phantoms so hard but leave enemy npc invaders alone? dark souls 2 was perfect in this aspect.

>>182510825
It's shameful to think she's the granddaughter of Parry King Hodrick. She must have spiced DMB down enough to make Magerold proud.

>>182510825
Sirris is bad at character building, apparently

>Estos with DMB on deals 50 damage to Creighton
>He smashes her stupid face in for 250 damage

>>182510951
You'll have shit rolls and stamina regen if you're over 55-60, stay under 50 for optimization.

>>182511046
Yeah, I noticed that I wasn't so much rolling as doing a frontflip and landing on my ass drunken style.

That's the only breakpoint I care about as a non caster right?

>>182511114
She clearly invested in STR, made her estoc Hollow-infused and broke it, just so it would do as little damage as possible.

>>182511048
I wouldn't say they're completely useless, the Pale Shade actually did surprisingly well against the Abyss Watchers earlier for me.
But yeah, the friendly NPCs in 2 were incredible, notably ones like Bradley, Boyd, Glencour, even Luet with his twin Greatshields of Glory.
