Finally managed to kill him! Thanks anons! Now onward to NG+ Honestly I think I was too aggressive for my own good but that's how I like to play. Though after dying to him 5 times in total I managed to see through some of his moves.

Are the Dark Souls 2 shills in this general also ENB fags? All this Dark Souls 2 shilling has become even more intense than before after ENB started his DS2 playthrough and like the numale hipster he is, he pretends to like 2 to shit on 3 because he knows a lot of people are burnt out on 3.

Tell me, which one worse having boss(one of many bosses) as a fanservice reference or just ripoff your previous game taht totally unrelated and put shit that doesn't make any sense just because you are lazy
Das gargoyles fight was great example, has 2/3 on maneater moves but braindead easy on top of that
But hey, they had different model so it's something
Hollow soldiers in das2 actually had different movesets, normal hollows in das were just picked from des with only few model changes, and das3 soldiers have fucking same moves as a bloodborne Hemwick mobs
Or like Gwyn had only 30% of false king) moves(which made him braindead easy with only original thing being 2h swing

>pointing out game's flaws is moving the goalposts
You first said that there no gamebreaking bugs in das and das3, despite the fact that you could finish first game in less than 20 minutes by skipping to klyn and skip entire zones in das3

Yes, you are moving goalposts

I like Dark Souls 2 (although I think it's also the weakest entry in the series) and it did some things pretty well like the NG+ cycles which had the most effort put into them out of all the series' games but I fucking loathe the attitudes of DS2fags where they feel like it's okay to shit on DS3 with the same arguments they cry DS2 was "unfairly" bashed for.

Because doing a very precise jump or quitting the game at just the right millisecond in the right location is just as gamebreaking as pressing down a button when using binoculars.

There is a reason why the glitches on other titles took much longer to find while people were flying in the air on first weeks of DaS2.

Reposting from the previous thread

I'd say take 4 points from VIG and put them into END then, you're hitting two softcaps then instead of just one

You've got two parry tools equipped, take it off and then adjust your VIT to suit the new weight levels. Then, adjust your other stats with the regained levels, you might be able to hit 44 VIG then

Bear in mind you'll be playing a game of attrition. Don't go for any unnecessary risks, chip away with your weapons. 2 swings with the SS then out, one counter thrust then out. Nothing will frustrate more than not only barely being able to hit a guy, but watching as your few and far between successful hits get passively healed

Don't bother buffing up unless you're able to make space beforehand. Start of the fight/invasion? Buff. Enemy distracted? Buff. Enemy far behind you? Buff. Those are the only times you should be keeping your buffs up, and you need to take advantage of that. Be slightly more aggressive in these situations, try to get them to use as much estus as possible during this time so that they're on the backfoot for the rest of the invasion. If it's a duel, this is the time when you use the bleed weapon, then for the rest of the time just stick with your regen sword. Don't use both buffs unless you've lost a lot of health and have the space to do so, it takes a lot of time and even more FP

And as I said, try both the Bandit Knife and the Brigand Twindaggers before commiting to one or the other. Brigand has the advantage of the slightly ranged thrust starting attack when 2-handing, which you should be with your dagger for the WA. Brigand of course will work better with Pontiff's if you can consistently hit and chase, since you're getting more APS so better chances of a quick heal

This has been going on for quite a while now and I was going to post it in the last thread but we crossed over to a new one.

I see ENB shills constantly cheer over him liking DS2 so I can't help but think the DS2fags and the ENB shills that inhabit the thread currently are the one and the same. Notice how the "ringed city when" fags stopped posting in both /bbg/ and /dsg/ when he started playing DS2 ?

I think that the guys were Dark Souls 2 fags falseflagging as a DS3fag to annoy people and now that the kiddies got their favorite eceleb faggot playing their favorite game, they hype him up constantly.

Were you trying to kill him with a slashing weapon? Armor and damage type of your weapon actually matters in DaS2 so if you're using a cutting weapon against something with a ton of armor you're going to have a bad time.

That's something that Dark Souls 2 actually did fairly well imo.

You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall.

Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul.
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerizing cat call.

Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait.
Don't you stray, don't fade away.
Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may.
Don't you stray, from the narrow way.

I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there.
You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil, you're just out to scare.

Well let's start with Shulva

You've got enemies that will tank more hits than pursuer as regular mobs. These mobs will poison you and be flanked with crossbowmen who will also poison you

You have enemies that can't be hit until you find their corpses

Three bosses:

A literally PvP ganksquad of NPCs who have slightly more advanced AI than you're likely used to from NPC invaders

A Summoner who pelts you from range while getting skellingtons to piss over you and will infact spawn a boss from the main game if she's feeling sufficiently prissy that evening

And a dragon that WILL require at least three good weapons to kill. It will require at least this many because these weapons will break during the course of the fight. You can of course use the games unbreakable weapon, but then you still have to deal with one of the tankiest bosses in the series, who really really likes to fly around

The entire area is basically a puzzle

And last but not least, you'll come face to face with the smuggest clown to ever walk the earth, and will probably get pissed on during the course of said meeting

Stop pissing about with his toes and hit him in the head. The fight is designed to punish you for doing the usual anti-dragon shit, because you take super high durability damage if you stand in between his legs and hit him in the toes. He's full of corrosive poison after all, lore reasons.
Compare the durability lost on the first hit, which accidentally hits body, versus all the other hits on head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldiLLjeYtys

To me it looks like it could just be a case of concept art being concept art instead of a weapon being actually cut from the game.

If such a weapon existed and was cut, the dataminers would've probably found the animations for it like they found the animations for the Ringed Knight hedge clippers before even AoA was out.

I've got a dex build that uses three weapons that, seperately, aren't high in the tier lists, but together can pretty efficiently dunk on the current meta due to being able to outspace/dodge ultras, outspace/poise-trade SS and GS tier weapons, catch quickstep spammers, rollcatch effectively and chase people down, all while using counter damage

DS3 has been tapped out and has no more marketing, so the Bandai manufactured hype is over.

No one is false flagging or shilling shit. It's just normal people voicing their opinions with whatever they think is going to get (you)s. There's no one-sided meme fest against DS2 anymore, so people are now either voicing their actual opinions or being contrarian.

Why waste an hour farming 30 sharp gems when you can use CE to get them in five minutes with no risk of being banned.

OPERATION TEARS OF DENIAL: /dsg/ Soul Revival Event

Throughout the month of August a revival event will be held each week for every PC Souls game. /dsg/ players will spend their time doing fight clubs, co-op, invasions any any other online activity in each to give one last hurrah for the series. Console players are also free to get involved or do runs on Demon's Souls and Bloodborne during this time.

This will start on the first week of August for Dark Souls 1, then going on to Dark Souls 2: SOTFS in week 2 and finally ending with Dark Souls 3 at week 3. The fourth week of the month will conclude with a /dsg/ tournament in one of the Souls games to be decided by strawpoll in the thread at a future date.

Active hours, steam sale.

Also "when" in terms of game progression. Invading optional areas early is a good way to catch players that aren't summoning lots of phantoms. Invading areas at a higher than average level gets you shitters that are struggling with the game.

There's also "when" in terms of how long you wait after invading and how patient you are.

You don't need skill to trick a host into falling off a ladder or getting combo'd to death or backstabbed around a corner, but you need to be smart to do it without getting raped by 2 phantoms while you do it.

Gavlan sells them, but seriously, learn how to just go through the area normally.

The lizardmen won't attack you if they have fireflies over their heads.

The enemies standing in water take extra damage from lightning attacks.

The sorcerers do only magic damage. Use magic shield, great magic barrier, or rebel's greatshield to block 90%+ of their damage.

The big enemies are often far enough away you can just walk around them without aggroing them.

You won't slow walk if you stand on the elevated rocks, which outlines a path. Follow that and you never fight more than one enemy at a time.

The biggest mistake you can make in Amana is moving too far forward without clearing enemies. You can do the area pure melee if you just don't panic.

The game is testing you on all the stuff you were supposed to pay attention to before.

desu, it's actually better for the invader when the host has a single phantom.

Hosts become fucking idiots when they have phantoms. When they're alone they can be cagey as fuck, but stick a bright yellow pisspant knight next to them so they can hit their R1 buttons together, and suddenly they're just super psyched to charge right into your swings like a retard.

It's ok, but it's kind of a hit an miss. The safest is ~40 in anor londo, easily the best place to invade without twinking too much. 60 kind of spreads out in the lord soul areas which might be done in any order

>>183902269
SL55 is preferred. People tend to trend lower because they rush to Anor Londo. Most are between SL50 and SL60 so if you have a higher upward invasion range, you want to trend lower. SL60 is good for painted world though, because once you reach that soul farming becomes very easy.

What's a 1st or 3rd person game (that isn't Souls or Souls-like) that has an interesting or at least an engaging melee combat system like the Dark Souls games?

Tried it for about 20 hours. The stance system is really unique and feels really good when you style through enemies. Some bosses are really unique and fun to fight. But the enemy variety (better said, the lack thereof) and the stale level design turned me off very fast.

>Is pure Faith viable for PvE and PvP.
Pure faith always been viable for PvE. The Mad King's Crucifix got addedin TRC, a STR/FTH weapon which is among the top-tier in PvP.

>Are there any good Miracles now?
One very good miracle in the last DLC, Lightning Arrow.

>And which one is better Dex/Faith or Dex/Int?
Dex/Int. Faith works better with Strenght, see the weapon mentioned above.

The easiest of the bunch is the one you play last although 3 is generally more casual-friendly. There's no reason to bang your head on the wall with any of them though, the shtick of the series is "punishing but fair". There is always some way to overcome the challenge standing before you

Chivalry, though the pvp is broken due to an unpatched glitch

Blade Symphony is great

Jedi Knight games are classics, especially since they take the "if the sword touches you, you're losing that limb" gimmick very seriously.

Metal Gear Rising
Classic Devil May Cry
Ninja Gaiden.
They're all pretty good but completely unrealistic.

You could try Ninja Blade, another From game. It's more hack and slash though, like Otogi.

Monster hunter is engaging though it requires friends and can be very grind-y.

I've heard good things about Warframe's combat, though the game itself seems bad.

If you can tolerate mechs, Some of the gundam arcade games (Extreme Vs) play like a 3D version of Street Fighter with it's melee combos and such.

Garrison: Archangel is basically a western PC fan version of Gundam Extreme VS, but there's no multiplayer yet.

Honest question, why would anyone ever use weapon buffs? I honestly cant figure out how to fit them into any build, but I see people using them often enough that there must be some use for them. The only one that makes sense to me is using blessed weapon on a strength build.

Like, lightning blade for example. In what situation or on what build would lightning blade be preferable over using a lightning infused weapon? It seems like on high faith builds lightning infusion would net more damage, and on low faith builds youd just want to use resins. I guess maybe if you were on a high dex or str character and you had 30 faith lightning blade would be good, but why would you even go to 30 faith on a build like that just to use a weapon buff when you could just use a resin instead? I dont know.

People who use builds that run weapon buffs, gimme the skinny.

Weapon buffs are for 60 int or 60 faith builds. On those levels, they do more damage than elemental infusions, but are temporary. With a buff, a caster build can temporarily do equal damage to a melee build. The only downside to buffs is that they incur a split damage penalty by having to go through defenses twice.

The real use of buffs though is for weapons that already have native elemental damage. Then it's just a free 200+ AR. That's why Mad King's Crucifix and Lothic Knight Greatsword are so insane

27str/60fth is the best build for buffs hands down. Like lightning infused bident will get 525AR, but if you go for heavy infusion and buff it using yorshka's chime then you end up with 640AR. Also you don't lock yourself with one damage type because you can use DMB, lightning blade and dark blade.

-Essentially switch enemies here and there

-Change some enemy placements

-Adjusting enemy stats

-More NPC invasions and summons

-Minor change of boss sequence

-Character messages akin to Bloodborne to give areas more context and meaning

For example, I want to switch out Black Knights with Abyss Watchers in majority of areas as it would make sense for there to be random infected Abyss Watchers roaming around but as a whole, I want AW to appear as temporary allies.

As for the change of sequence, I want you to be able to access the Catacombs without fighting AW first so that way you actually have options on who to fight first. And I want them to be either the 3rd or 4th Lord you face depending on your actions.

by optional I meant dead-end areas, my bad.

The main problem with a hack like that though is that most of DS3's levels are designed to only be gone through in a single direction. Going through ithryll backwards is hilarious because the enemies only aggro forwards. Same with Lothric Castle.

So more bonfires unlocked from the start? What I had in mind is that allowing access to the Catacombs would give you different paths to take. Since in the Catacombs you can go to Ithryll or Smouldering Lake, and Ithryll to Anor Londo or Profaned Capital.

I also thought of changing how you start in the game by starting you either at Undead Settlement and/or Mound Makers area. But I dont know if it would be a good idea.

Why on earth are you using a Farron Flashsword when Crystal Longsword/LKS and Crystal Flamberge are both monsters?

The only swords coming from your catalysts ought be Old Moonlight, Soul Greatsword and maybe Dark Edge depending on if you desperately need close range dark damage. And ideally speaking, even then you'd want to be using a Weapon Catalyst like Heysel Pick or Immolation Tinder

If you're at low-mid level, raw will carry you all the way to DSA before it stops being viable. If you're at the point where you've got a crystal gem, infuse a Longsword or LKS

Either vit/end gouge with 16/10/40 or 16/10/50 mage that only uses it for backup. You can play a buffbuild with a clay or bastard sword and/or make it magic along the way. I highly recommend also making a zaphander to help you cut the tail

More bonfires accessible from the start and more ways to loop around the world map, like DS1.

DS1 didn't have warping but it had darkroot and valley of the drakes, which interconnected the first 60% of the game by letting you loop around in circles. You could probably easily mod DS3 to make Carthus work like valley of the drakes.

All you would have to do is basically add an item, NPC, or some other interactable that did a bonfire warp to a specific bonfire when activated.

Plant 2 in firelink (Road of Sacrifices, Catacombs of Carthus, since High wall is already a warp), then plant one after Nameless King, one after Champ, one after Demon King, and one after Deacons.

Then disable all other bonfire warping.

This way, the boss that would take the longest for you to reach would be Nameless King, and it would only require beating Dancer, Ocieros, and Champ first. And since you get path of the dragon at Untended graves, it even makes sense to do it this way anyway.

Now, I've just popped back from hospital and I'm a little groggy, so I didn't read the part of this post that said the poster was looking for a DaS1 build rather than a DaS3 build. Nethertheless, I spent a long time typing it and you're all going to suffer through it

>>183918910
Well first, you farm for a Flamberge and make that bitch crystal ASAP

As for how you build it, you can go for hitting 40/45 INT (The cap for MLGS damage), then getting ATT (18 at the most) for some utility spells and maybe a homing soulmass. The rest in health, end and VIT so you're basically a trading tank who ideally forces people into close range to trade

Or you can go 60 int and use it as an emergency fallback. While this gives you the benefit of full ranged access and damage, you won't get much use out of the MLGS simply because the greatsword class of weapons are first and foremost trading weapons. If someone hits you first, legitimately or through lag, you will likely not have the poise required to swing through if you've gone for more of a caster simply because the levels that would've gone into VIT are now having to give you more ATT (24 minimum, 30-40 ideally) and more INT to reach the spell damage caps

In short, the MLGS is an odd weapon to build for now that poise is a thing simply because the Greatsword class of weapons only really favour builds that can get the poise required to trade. Whereas before any weapon could interrupt even UGS swings, so it was basically just there as a reasonably hard hitting melee weapon

If you're a a melee pure INT build, it's your best weapon. At the same time, going 40/40 DEX/INT is easy and gives you access to frankly a superior weapon in the form of the Greatsword of Judgement, as well as the Freide Scythes, excellent for attacking from offscreen. On pure casters, stick to weapons like crystal longswords, heysel pick and immolation tinder. The longsword won't require having poise to trade with and both Heysel and the Tinder can cast spells

You play a normal pure intelligence caster with 16 strength, and use either oolacile catalyst and magic weapon (for weaker weapons) or enchanted upgrade. You aim for 16/10/40 stats, or a little higher int if you plan on going with white dragon breath.

Enchanted upgrade is pretty easy. All you need is green shards (which you can get from the leeches in blight town, you only need 10 and they drop 5 at a time) and then you need Blue Chunks, which you can farm from the golems in darkroot basin. That means before Quelaag you can have an echanted +4 weapon.

However the faster way is to just use a normal or raw weapon and use magic weapon buff. On anything smaller than a claymore that will probably do more damage and doesn't require chunk farming.

This despite the fact that greatshields can reach upwards of 80 stability, Strong Magic Shield is the most powerful blocking spell in all three games so far, and you get a fucking ring that gives you more stability when blocking.

A good blocking setup in DaS2 gives you a greatshield that blocks all incoming damage and has 98 stability that lasts for upwards of 90 seconds. Something that is impossible to achieve in the other two games.

Dark Souls 2 doesn't really go out of it's way to discourage shields (fuck, it made dual wielding greatshields viable) but due to DS2 pacing the earlygame equipment better than the other Souls games and not giving you a 100% phys block shield at the start, the existence of powerstancing and the fact that two-handing DOUBLES your STR as opposed to the 1.5x of DeS and DaS1, there were better alternatives available for going shieldless, even for Dex characters.

That's the point, it was sarcasm.

DS2 doesn't discourage blocking, it just gives you more options for upgrading equipment and has weaker starting classes so you can min-max easier, and gives players more options for going shieldless (torch, power stance).

>the fact that two-handing DOUBLES your STR as opposed to the 1.5x of DeS and DaS1
It doesn't. It only doubles it for the sake of equip requirements, not scaling, so 2Hing your weapon doesn't give you extra damage in DS2.

I personally think Blood vials+Rogaine were the best healing system in a Souls-like because it allowed the players to do large levels in a single go without needing mid-level checkpoints and resupply off of enemies and environment but 20-24 was like the max you could hold at once on your person and the excess would go to your box.

DeS also has the most powerful regen so they didn't need that much grass.

DS2's idelogy is "Every playstyle is viable, but every enemy has a different strategy that is overpowered against them. As you go through the game, you'll get slightly stronger versions of those strategies"
DS3s idealogy is "default longsword R1 spam is overpowered, every other strategy is dogshit. As you go through the game you'll find rings, buffs, and grinding levels enough to make other strategies equivalent or stronger"

The problem with DS3 isn't that shields are over/underpowered, it's that they're dogshit compared to just 2H and rolling, and you have to get mid-late game buffs and stats to make shields decent.

DS2 starts you off with decent (but not the best) shields but a lot of enemies will smash through shield or have elemental attacks that will chip damage through you.

DS1 was kind of designed under the idea that you would stick with your starting class style throughout most of the game and only change strategies halfway, so it gives you all the overpowered stuff right away, taking all the fun out of mid/late game.

It's stuff like this that make people like DS2, because DS1/DS3 have awful progression of your player's options and powers.

Read the original post. It was claiming that blocking in DaS2 was the most powerful it's ever been in all 3 games. And that hasn't been disproven.

In DaS2, Strong Magic Shield's duration scales with your Int, so you can get a full minute of it if needed. Add on Lingering Dragoncrest Ring +2, and you get 90 seconds. This, on top of Baneful Bird Ring and a good shield, gives you at least 93 stability for that entire duration and complete immunity from damage. Un-buffed, you have 85 stability.

In DaS3, you can only reach 45 seconds' duration at best, half that of DaS2. Un-buffed, the best you have is either 80 stability (33% weaker than what you can get in DaS2) or 88 stability with a massive stamina penalty for everything you do.

I'd say blocking is still far superior in DaS2.

how do i get really good damage in dark souls 2? i remember when i played through it the first time i found it took a really long time to kill things, especially in the dlc areas even though i had a +10 weapon and pretty good stats
>>
>>183923913
With my sorceress I use 5 spells.
1. Crystal Soul Spear: A nuke for invasions and team battles. If it hits in a duel you basically win.
2. Homing Soul Mass: A great defensive tool that can also punish crossbows, throwing weapons, and other offensive spells. Mean that you use this to recover stamina or drink from a flask and you can also use it (while the balls are out) to hit anyone in an animation to hit you with a ranged attack.
3. Heavy Soul Arrow: The cast speed and low FP cost is what makes this great. You use it to always put your enemy on their toes. It also punishes sprint/dash attacks really well.
4. Farron Hail: This spell is best used by free-aiming it to hit people who simply run around your locked on spells or to roll catch at a distance.
5. Soul Greatsword: Great spell to hit people behind walls. You can also throw it in with your melee strikes against rollers to miss time and hopefully hit them during their spam. Lastly, it's a great spell to hit people on wake-up because it covers a lot of area.

Farron Dart is also really good to chip away and finish people. Snap Freeze can force your opponents to move around more. Free aimed white dragon breadth can roll catch decently. Normal Soul Spear can nuke really hard while costing only 2/3 of the FP of Crystal Soul Spear. Soul Stream is only useful for ganking (CSS is better though). Old moonlight fills in the same spot as soul great sword, and it can hit WAY harder, but it's much harder to land a hit with.

P.S. Use a crystal flamberge for its WAr2. It's too fucking strong!

Longsword spam is far from the most effective strat for DS3 especially with the refined upgrade nerf compared to sharp / STR.

Can't any shield be guard broken instantly in 2? That alone would make it worse than 3.

you mean guard broken instantly by that slow and highly telegraphed guard break attack?

The only way you would get guard broken in 2 is if you actually held up your shield like a retard while the other guy went through the stupidly long second-long animation. At least in 3 the stance breaks are faster and have more range.

Why is this series so fucking lame and boring?
They just try to throw cheap shit at you, and randomize patterns, or just multiples of adds.

The boss movesets are almost always the same with just different graphics and effects.
The level design is convoluted as fuck and tries to obscure everything that you just stumble into the item or exit that you were looking for.

I expected a fun and challenging game but all I got was just another Monster Hunter but with dungeons and magic.

Looking for tips on a SL 90 Faith caster I'm building for fun invasions

Currently looking at attuning Sunlight Spear, Lightning Arrow, Lightning Stake and then what would be better between Projected Heal and Great Heal? Any other miracles I should consider?

I want to use a Four-Pronged Plow with lightning infusion, is this pointless? Should I just go for Bident instead with base stats and 60 Faith? I don't want to attune DMB/Sunlight Blade - would they still be worth using with lightning infusion?

The Faith scaling on DSGA is absolute shit, in practice a DSA cosplay is just a regular Str build that requires 28 Vit.

>>183927253
Stack rings, counter damage, and buffs, focus on upgrading one really good weapon and abusing enemy weaknesses, not scaling. Power stance is a good example.

Example: Grand Lance on 40/20/20/20 stats

A normal 1HR1 hit with a +10 grand lance
>423 AR (340+83)
>252 damage

A counter hit 2HR2 on a dark-infused grand lance with leo ring, ring of blades, dark clutch ring, and dark resonant weapon against an enemy weak to dark damage
>334 physical AR, 901 after multipliers
>361 Dark AR, 1442 after multipliers and buff
>650 physical damage
>1009 dark damage

SAME weapon, SAME upgrade level, SAME stats, but by changing the equipment, buffs, using an element the enemy is weak to getting the counter hit and using the 2HR2 instead of the 1HR1, you go from 252 damage to *1659 damage*.

Help please.
>>
>>183930803
>Sorceror
It's alright. Really depends on what SL you're going for. If it's 120, I think you get the most vig/end/attn/int out of that class with minimal str and dex. You will have a lot of left over luck and almost not vit. I picked knight class, which gives me a bunch of vit but I am stuck with much less end, so I have to manage my stamina carefully.

Homing Soul Mass will be your most used spell in PVP. Don't expect it to hit often, it's for defense. People cannot charge at you while its up. You also use it to force rolls to hit people with another spell, like free aimed Farron Hail.

Probably because people moaned so much about parrying being impossible in 2 without set ups.

Start off with a run to the Tin Banishment catalyst.

Then go to lower undead burg to access Griggs.

Then either decide to buff (oolacile catalyst + longsword/estoc) by killing the hydra, or go enchanted (claymore?) by killing the Moonlight Butterfly and farming some green titanite and blue chunks in blighttown/darkroot basin. Eventually once your intelligence gets high enough and you use a large enough weapon, the enchanted path will be better than the catalyst buff.

Once you reach O&S you can swap your enchanted weapon for a moonlight butterfly horn if you want, but a +14 enchanted claymore will carry you through the game if you want it to. You'll get Great Magic Weapon at that time too.

That should carry you on until Seath.

>you don't HAVE to use the Stormruler
Yes, but the disparity between the instant win button the devs give you without having to work for it and fighting him normally for no reward whatsover is too large to ignore.

There is absolutely no in game reward for beating Yhorm without the Stormruler and using the instant win button is never an inferior option to trying to beat him normally.

The differences to the Storm King fight in Demon's Souls is that the Storm King in Demon's Souls doesn't have an absurd amount of health or resistances even against regular attacks and the Stormruler will lose effectiveness on higher NG cycles pretty fast because there is no scaling. On NG+2 already a bow is a better option than the Stormruler.

Yes, you don't HAVE to use the plunging attack to the Wyvern or the rings for Wolnir either but not doing so is just not rewarded in any way, the gimmick is always just disproportionaly the better option so that the devs can shove their "cinematic moment" down your throat.

The Stormruler would've been okay if the condition to acquire ut would be to get Siegward to appear to his bossfight and him dying in the fight or Siegward giving you the Stormruler when he dies in the game world normally.

Give Yhorm more reasonable health to make him more doable without the ruler, make Storm ruler only put him in a visceral position and you already have a better and more involving boss.

Wasn't Yhorm and the Profaned Capital the Bed of Chaos and Lost Izalith of DS3? i.e. FromSoft ran out of time again and the boss and zone are underwhelming as fuck.

Yhorm is my favorite Lord of Cinder for his story and physical appearance, but holy shit his bossfight is awfully designed. As you said, it wouldn't even take much to make the fight decent, but making the Profaned Capital nearly as interesting or expansive as the other zones with a Lord of Cinder would require a huge amount of redesigning.

They appear on a timer so you can have enough dps to only fight one at a time.

Cmon guys this is not rocket science, it's different to have a fight like Rom Phalanx or Freja where the adds contribute to the fight in a meaningful way or Ruin Sentinels / 4 Kings where the arrival of the other bosses is paced in a way that gives players a decent chance and then the shitshow that is Elana summoning million Velstadts / Skeletons and casting spells or LMAO MILLION RATS HAHA.

I don't know if Propaned Capital was unfinished or if it was kinda considered that Irithyll Dungeon is part of the same "area" . The thing is though, giving a grandiose name like "The Profaned Capital" to a small Byrgenwerth-sized area is a terrible letdown between the expectation you create when you do that especially since the Irithyll Dungeon was not particularly city-like.

Anor Londo worked alright because the purpose of the name was to give players the "WHOA"-element when they realize Irithyll is actually Anor Londo but Profaned Capital imo has no such reasoning.

I've heard this several times, but every single time I fought them, I always had 3 on me.
It didn't matter if I focused on just one of them at a time and went out of my way to do no damage to the other, there was always a third one that showed up.
So if there's something else to the fight, then yes, I admit I'm retarded. Otherwise, I have no clue.

If you don't run around roof , second joins after 15-20 seconds or if total boss health is 90%
Third around 80% or after minute
6 total, with 5 being activated through health bar and six if you just retarded
So if you really focus one and don't waste your time, you should always fight against 2 and no more
Generally it's better to active second by being near to it, so you wouldn't fuck up up and activate more than needed

Either way, I don't think CE babbies got to ENB yet plus it takes like half a minute to restore your savegame.

Point is that it's cowardly from him to go offline before anything happened. If a CE using bitch invades him and does shit then he can go offline and it's understandable.

But I have to commend him for doing this and uploading to Youtube as well as doing some things like lowering the volume of sub messages and such for the sake of YT as opppsed to sucking off streamfags. I renewed my sub a while ago because he actually deserves it now.

Critcal thinking and logical analysis.

DaS2 Gargoyles are cluster fuck. DaS1 4 King were designed with the group fight mechanic in mind.

For example, even when 2 Kings are out at once, as long as you remain close to one you were fighting, the other will rarely engage you. Instead it will just sort of circle you while keeping it's distance.

Don't upgrade armor at all. Save your titanite for weapons. Knight Set is good because it offers a lot of poise, if you are using an ultra weapon.

Once you can buy infinite titanite shards, then upgrade the knight sets.

Drangleic set is really good stats but gains less from upgrades, it's heavy for its defense, wastes twinkling titanite (which is really rare) and looks ugly, so that's why mostly newbies flock to it.

And I'm unsubbing from his channel if he stops playing Souls,that's the way the cookie crumbles. I don't support him out of a sense of obligation ir because I think he's a nice guy, I support him because he delivers a service that I want.

Alright then I was suspecting that

Speaking of, Craftsman's Hammer and Twinblade look cool

I should just stick with my (+8) longsword tho right? Since it's my first playthrough and all. And I like the thrust

The firekeeper in firelink. If you didn't find her it's entirely your fault. And the game doesn't ask for confirmation for random souls

What >>183945105 said.
Dont spawn in key items dont change your NG cycle dont touch nearly anything.

And be careful as you can be banned for spawning in certain items/weapons. Happened to me before.
Heres a helpful guide on what does and doesnt get you banned. https://www.reddit.com/r/opensouls3/comments/5gc9cb/softban_data_and_testing/

When does Dark Souls get fun like the other four games?
>>
>>183945650
Basically:

Weapons and Armor that upgrade with Regular titanite:
>double their defense or Attack once they are +10.
>6 shards, 6 large shards, 6 chunks, 1 slab
>shards and large shards are infinite after 30% of the game
>chunks are infinite after the final boss
>slabs are not infinite

Weapons and Armor that upgrade with Twinkling titanite:
>1.5x their defense or Attack once they are +5 (So compared to regular, they start at +5)
>15 twinkling titanite
>twinkling is finite throughout the game, requires farming.
>is easily farmed at the second-to-last main game area (before DLC)

Weapons and Armor that upgrade with Petrified Dragon Bone:
>3x their defense or Attack once they are +5 (So compared to regular, they start at 0 and go to +15)
>15 petrified dragon bones
>VERY finite, nonexistent in early game.
>can be farmed (not easily) at the second-to-last main game area (before DLC)

So it's best to avoid upgrading armor and safe your titanite for weapons, but once large shards become infinite you can upgrade everything. Then start using twinkling once you get enough of it to start making meaningful upgrades.

Slashy Souls is a Bandai Namco Game, it has no involvement from From Software whatsoever.

Code Vein is as much of a Souls game as Slashy Souls is.
>>
>>183947053
Different people find different bosses tough in Soulsborne especially. And Champ, Dancer, DSA, Nameless Homoprinces, Aldrich, Oceiros and SoC are all at least on par with Pontiff.

Dark Souls 3 Character designing thread:

I've been a huge fan of the castlevania games ever since Symphony of the Night and have loved all the characters but recently Netflix got an original series of "Castlevania" starring Trevor C. Belmont, I've not been inspired to make a build revolving whips and a short sword (sadly it's DEX so it will take some time since I'm originally a STR build) but now all I need is a look that's similar to the anime Trevor Belmont (since his last game was pixels of rather use the anime as a reference point) im not great with the character creator so I'm hoping the Dark Souls Community can band together and help a fellow Ashen One out, keep in mind I'm not saying do all the work merely help me get finalized slider numbers that would work best.
That's my request hopefully I can get some answers
>>
>>183945486
You are a disgusting excuse of a human you filthy cuck.
>>
>>183947440
Code Vein does not have Souls in the name. Bamco owns the Dark Souls i.p and Slashy Souls takes place in the setting of Dark Souls.

Now that I think about it, maybe the reason Nito doesn't appear in DS3 because he's a boss in Slashy Souls and he's killed there.
>>
>>183947571
Your implication is that Pontiff is the hardest boss in the game. When that clearly isn't the case no matter how you try to spin it.
>>
>>183947819
>>
>>183946116
The only dangerous weapon is the Storm Ruler. Also DLC weapons if you don't have the DLC.

Dangerous items include all estus items, grass dew crystal, divine spear fragment, and all covenant items.
>>
>>183947941
I actually just deleted my Trevor Belmont cosplay. It's shit, don't bother.

>>183947638
what the fuck is Bier

Do you mean Nier: Automata? Because that's not related to souls at all other than being just a better and more creative game than DS3

>Estus chuggers punisher

He is the best plebian filter
The others bosses you cited do take a couple of tries but you will go through eventually but if you suck you simply won't pass pontiff
>>
>>183948137
DLC weapons are fair game, because people were dropping them before TRC was even released.

On the other hand "sanity check" stuff is dangerous, like spawning in spells and key items in areas you haven't cleared (like the Grand Archives Key before beating the three Lords of Cinder).

>>183946854
I'm in tier 38 if that helps. 8,000,000

>no matter how you try to spin it.

Out of Caesium, Sodium, and Talc, Talc is the hardest. That is a simple fact. But saying that is not the same thing as saying Talc is hard.

He's a stylish boss I'll give you that. Plus it's fun to parry him and delete a tgird of his healthbar in one go.

>>183948379
LOOOOOL
>>
>>183948429
>>183948568
Just because he filters plebs, does not make him the hardest boss in the game. Numerous later bosses would be much harder than Pontiff to the people who couldn't get past him.

>die to the sanic dogs twice on the way to Capra Demon
>kill boss on the first try
Everyone who complained about Iron Keep either never played this piece of shit or were full of shit themselves. Everything that isn't a hollow has at least one attack as fast and unpredictable as a Heide Knight. Unless the late-game is better than the early-game (when everyone claims the opposite), this really is the worst game in the franchise.
>>
>>183948112

Congratulations, it's the best looking headpiece.
>>
>>183948741
Nier Automata is a pretentious, weird, exploitative and confusing game with a shit-tier PC port

But the customization, mechanics, boss fights and world design are basically what DS3 should have been if From knew how to made a good game. Level design might be the only area where DS3 shows more creativity. DS3 was a phoned in cashgrab.

I love From but Platnium knows their shit and actually improves with each game instead of taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back like From did with DS3.

DS2 had the best fashion in the series
>>
>>183949121
Haha

>>183948952
DaS1 just shits on scrubs because it holds your hand the least of any of the games. If you want to jam your dick in a light socket and flip the switch, DaS1 will just stand back and let you do it.

>>183949123
Exactly. The Souls series was supposed to be tough but fair. It wasn't supposed to be "le so hard XD." It just pushed your shit in for making stupid decisions.
>>
>>183949121
That's mainly Miyazaki consistently fucking things up. Even DaS2's problems could be blamed on him since he made the decision to put an old buddy with no directing experience in charge of the project. The only reason it turned out half-passable was because Tanimura was able to salvage it to the point of resembling an actual game.

I'm assuming hornet's as well, although I don't see the buff underneat the health bar. And I'm assuming he's using yhorm's machete because its the highest damage weapon with warcry?
>>
>>183949369
Plus Sacred Oath, which stacks with Deep Protection.

>>183949317
>It just pushed your shit in for making stupid decisions

Which is exactly what 2 does. It's only a difficult game if you run around aggroing everything and expecting to button mash your way through.
>>
>>183948952
DS1 isn't hard

The only "hard" souls games are DeS if you played it first and without a wiki (and didn't pick royalty), or DS1 pre-patch when aggro distance meant all the mobs attacked you at once.

Everything else is just moderately difficult in that you might die a few times before figuring out the gimmick.

People like DS1 for the interconnected world, the lore, and the visual design.
>>
>>183918280
I just want the plain sword itself, WA or no. It was my fucking nigga in 1, a sold SS with some heft behind it and not for shitters like the BSS, great for carrying buffs.

That's another 10% right? I wonder if you can 1 shot champion gundyr
>>
>>183949530
The main difference between 1 and 2's difficulty is that 1 has a single intended easy path and everything else is hard, whereas 2 has branching paths that have different kinds of difficulty each.
>>
>>183948770
>numerous later bosses
Like who? Only champ and nameless are as reactiv but not as good at punishing shitters
The rest are basically waiting for them to commit and aren't as impredictable as pontiff and don't share half of his qualities especially regarding estus punishing or deceitful attacks
