You deserve it for all the faggotry that being a "friendly invader" entails

This is some low quality bait here.

>>187246658
>struggling with a boss that dies in 3 hits

>>187246658
Because one bad boss fight in a masterpiece of a game doesn't mean it's a bad game. Rather have one memorably bland boss fight than all the filler bosses in DS2.

>>187246594
>>187246943
I mean going full fallen knight tier and attacking ever invader you see right away is ok I guess
But playing along with it while obviously just looking for an opportunity to get a backstab is just silly

I've spent the last hour running past retarded fire-breathing fatties that only have the one attack that deals practically no damage if it hits and who themselves die in a single hit had I the patience or any incentive to kill them.
Bed of Chaos is the gnarliest bit of shit on the titanic turd that is this shit game. Can't wait for this crap to be over. After the wonderful Demon's Souls there's absolutely no excuse for this.

I've done like 12 playthroughs across souls games and never touched faith either. Something about it doesn't click with me.

>>187247743
"No."

>>187247743
In 3 yes, but only because some of the best weapons in the game now are STR/FAI ones.

>Saint Bident
>Murky Hand Scythe
>FUCKING CRUCIFIX

Crucifix is the best single Faith weapon in the entire series on par with pre-nerf Defender's Greatsword in 2.

>>187247539
That whole area is considered the worst in the game, anon. It's the one that was most obviously rushed. Quit nitpicking.

Dragon God is easy and has no attacks that can instantly kill you by knocking you into the abyss. I figured out the fight and killed him on my first try, and each subsequent run has only been easier.

Depends on which game. FTH in DS3 is actually pretty good and has a lot of offensive capability. You can also do shit like Blessed Infused LKGS and absolutely stomp shit.

>>187247960

Doesn't faith boost buffs like the resins?

>>187247726
>He doesn't track hosts like an animal while they're poisoned

>>187248270
It does not boost the power of resins at all, it did that in no game in the series. Faith boosts the power of spell buffs associated with it, Dark Blade, Darkmoon Blade, Lightning Blade. There is also Blessed Weapon but that is a non-scaling buff that instead gives a damage percentage to how much physical AR your weapon has. Ideally for the first three buffs you want to cast them with 60 Faith and Yorshka's Chime.

>is there something that counters the shockwave thing?
Backing up

>>187249016
Best done without locking onto him.

>>187249016
Always stay behind him, fight him unlocked to be able to run behind him easily. If you stay a few steps behind him, you won't get hit. Use the shield you can grab from Oscar, it has like 80% magic block, the best in ds1 (aside from maybe Havel's), so if you're not sure if you're far enough, just raise it. Keep some stamina to run/block at all times, and take it slow, this motherfucker has lots of health. What's your weapon&upgrade level ?

Whats the easiest way to kill a host and 4 phantoms gangbanging you? Shit is still dumb, especially since red friendly fire is a thing...

>>187244026
Not popular enough. Honestly King's Field was pretty shit. Armored Core 1 and Eternal Ring are on PSN though, and Eternal Ring is basically a refined version of KF1-3 gameplay.

Would anybody on PS4 Dark Souls 3 be willing to drop a Moonlight Great sword? Maybe some staves or something. Can you drop spells?

Thinking about doing a Ludwig cosplay.

>>187249891
>it's at +7 but hasn't outstripped drake yet.
Upgrade level matters less than scaling in DS1.

Balder Side Sword +15 beats Drake Sword +5 as long as you have at least 22 dex. So a +7 BSS should be stronger than a Drake Sword +3 as long as you have 22+ dex.

At 40 dex, +15 BSS should have ~30% more damage than a +5 drake sword.

>>187249016
Block it with the Crest Shield that you get from Oscar on the return visit. 80% magic damage reduction.

>>187251178
You cannot drop spells.

well lads now that I realize how trash Freides scythe is what do I do with this build, it's just 40/60 dex int

>>187251486

Damnit. Well, that's not a big deal.

>>187247743
str+fth is the best PvE build in pretty much every game in the series because it always has the highest damage offensive buffs, highest scaling for physical damage, best damage type (most enemies are weak to lightning) and best offensive and defensive buffs

It doesn't matter what game you're in, lightning infusion + great magic barrier + heal will carry you through most/all bosses.

Ask a theorycrafter anything.

You force the host and his 4 phantoms to waste time and Estus against mobs, and take the opportunity to try to kill phantoms or the host while they're busy.

>>187251508

Black knight shield and a court sorcerers staff with fucking nukes lad.

>>187249745
trick the host to falling to their death with a good combo of obscuring ring + milwood greatbow, or force

invasions are always about the environment, not builds. If you can't gimmick kill them through falls or mobs, then it's a war of attrition and you will always lose.

But that's wrong. Build is important too, and environment is definitely a huge factor, but invasions are about mindset.

1. If you're going to do that, best to use Evil Eye +3.

2. Only for low SL invading, where the HP recovery will benefit you disproportionately.

3. Maybe also include SPR on top of that if you really want to be an asshole.

I think those are all pictures of actual paintings IRL that they threw in the game at the last minute. I think it was originally supposed to be pictures of the developers.

>who chose that ugly ass wallpaper
Also thrown into the game at the last minute.

>and how do I properly use Ricard's in pve, should I go back to the normal rapier ? I don't want to use the estoc.
If you press R2 after doing a strong attack and time it right, you do a 5 hit combo, which staggers most enemies. Works great, but you gotta practice the timing. Basically hit R2 right as the previous attack ends and keep mashing it.

>>187255216
On my way

>>187255515
Yeah, I can use the 5-hit combo, but it's rather hard to actually use against enemies, and most of the time I figure I'd rather just R1 spam them to death. I mostly just use it as a stylish finisher, I guess. Didn't think about using it for staggering purposes though, I'll try that

>>187257538
learn to tell when he starts to wind up, don't roll when he lands, start backing off way before that point. Then just run in the opposite direction. If you have a shield up, you can also just block most of the damage. It gets weaker the further away you are.

>host dies before you even land in the Midir pit

>>187258278
This is why you never do Midir with randoms. Ever.

>>187258204
>it gets weaker the further away you are
well fuck I didn't know that
I usually beat biggie & smoll without too much trouble, but damn this run I'm dealing far less damage than usual, so I actually have to pay attention and shit, I feel like smough's tells are somewhat hard to read though. I'll get a couple levels to use great magic weapon instead of magic weapon, and my armor to +6 while I'm at it
I'll try super drake instead if I can't do it, I feel like ornstein is easier to read, haven't done super ornstein in forever though
also a +10 ricard's rapier w/ magic weapon and 33 dex doing 50 damage to ornstein is outrageous

Best miracles for PvP?

What is a good weapon to use for both Co-Op and PVP at 45?

I don't want some weird meta shit like Dark Hand.

I was originally using Executioner's Greatsword for Co-Op because the FP regen on kills is amazing for spamming Millwood Greatbow bombs. But I honestly don't like using the Executioner's Greatsword. And it feels somewhat lacking in damage.

>>187259341
Eh, for every weak weapon that it made viable you had eight million people wandering around with an exile greatsword that was swinging for 650 damage R1s. It was silly.

Gotcha senpai

Anon from Catacombs here.
I think I am lost again.
I managed to ring the First Bell, found a Giant Gate with Siegward. Went to the forest and killed a butterfly and after many tries a Hydra. Got rekt by havel until I learnt he was easy to backstab. Again found myself at burg so I went back and explored forest more and found a bonfire behind Black Knight, but it takes me to a place with really strong mini-dragons, and narrow pathway. I followed it but ended up in a place where enemies were facing away from me, so I take it this path is also one of those things I shouldn't do so I homeward boned out.
So now I am lost?
Do I have to buy "Crest of Artorias" to progress forward?

What's a weapon you love but never see used besides using it yourself?

For me it's the Reinforced Club.

>>187260873

>>187260873
Carthus Shotel

>>187260734
You can buy the crest of artorias or explore the lake behind the hydra, there's a ladder there.

They both go to the same place, but neither are necessary to go right now.

Check your inventory. Before the gargoyles you should have picked up a key, it opens the other door on the bridge with the red dragon, before the giant gate area (sen's fortress). This will lead you to lower undead burg, which is the path to the second bell.

>>187262684
Unless more exploits are discovered, yes. Dark Souls has been "done" since the last DLC dropped, since then the patches have all been based around complaints to Bandai about exploits, glitches, or movesets/hitboxes not working properly (especially with a lot of the DLC wepaons). That's a sign that they aren't fixing or improving things, they're just avoiding controversy.

The ideal way to use it is Heavy with 26/27 STR and 60 Faith so it gets optimal AR 2H which is what you want with a spear anyway. That gets it just over 400 physical AR since it has partial Faith scaling, and that 60 Faith also allows you to buff it with a full power Darkmoon/Dark Blade sending it to over 600 AR. While buffed it is a monster and even without buff you will have a hefty amount of pure physical damage which with Bident's range is still formidable.

>>187264916
It is the longest spear, and is amazing with elemental infusions.
You can make it sharp or something and buff it too.
Stronger Gargoyle Spear.

>>187264916
It's the longest spear, with high AR for it's weapon class, buffable, with additional faith phys scaling.

27 str 60 fth is a very efficient setup for it, but you can do pretty much whatever you like.

It's garbage in invasions, like all spears.

>>187264742
Talk to people around firelink. Also, I usually postpone the trip back until I grab 2 items from the depths, it helps immensely going through the next areas, although since it's apparently your second time, it would be better to go slow
>>187264916
Heavy and buffed with dmb/lb. 27/12/40-60. It's also pretty gud as lightning or dark if you want it for chase and don't have time to buff.

>>187264340
why is pontiff knight shield so low? It's got great elemental defenses and low stat requirements, does the low stability make it unusable?

>>187265854
Yes.

It's stability is in the toilet and it doesn't even have 100% physical block.

>>187265854
My guess is that it doesn't have 100% resistance against anything.

>>187265854
Yes, it has 48 stability and only 73% physical defense at max upgrade level. It's stability is the lowest of the medium shields by far and that matters highly in PvP if you're looking to block a hit as that will burn into your stamina greatly. Compare the Pontiff Knight Shield to Ethereal Oak. Ethereal Oak has 100% physical defense, 60% or higher elemental resist for everything except fire, and five more stability. That's not even counting the innate regen. It's a direct downgrade to any other competent med shield, if you're looking to block specific elemental damage there will always be a better shield for your needs.

>>187265854
It's stability is only slighter higher than the plank shield, it doesn't have 100% physical block, and it can't even parry.

Aesthetically it's great, but somebody on the dev team must have hated the fucking thing because the state it ended up in is downright tragic.

>>187266115
>and it can't even parry.

Being a WA shield is one of the few positives I rated for it actually, WA med shields are generally preferable because parry frames on medium shields aren't good and WA shields allow you to use things like straight swords optimally with their terrific WAs.

>>187266115
>>187266065
>>187266001
>>187265950
I'm guessing the justification is that the pontiff knight shield can be bought really early into the game, and for the stage you're at, it's exceptionally good at elemental defense. It's just completely outclassed later on.

>>187266215
You can get the Lothric Knight Shield or Black Knight Shield just as early as Pontiff Shield, that's a horrible excuse if anything.

>>187266269
those have high strength requirements though, and BKS has to be farmed, LKS isn't until after greirat's second scavenge, but PKS is from his first, if I remember right.

Just like how trash the zweihander is, but it has lower stat requirements than greatsword and can be bought super early, after undead settlement.

>>187266370
the only comparable shield would be something like the Crest Shield or Dragon Crest Shield, which are still after the PKS but are the only ones that can be found before ithryll without farming but still have decent elemental resistances. They're both parry shields though.

I'm not saying PKS is good, but I can understand why the developers didn't make it better, since it would give little reason to use anything else later on.

>>187265212
Wait, should I go into Depths or follow the clerics into catacombs? I can say I know upper catacombs well enough so If they aren't that far gone maybe there is some quest there?
As for now I've managed to find a man in a barrel and a bonfire down in depths. The key to it was in a weird position though It was a long trek back from firelink after I died to rat.

>>187264340
I noticed even though some items are on a specific tier, they're lower than some others. Specifically the Scythes, more specifically, Corvian Great Scyte and Friede's Great Scythe.

Is this because they're good, but not almost top tier?

>>187266193
Parry frames for med shields are perfectly fine for setup parries, which is what med shields with parry should be used for anyway.

>>187266832
Depths. Going to the upper catacombs now vs later just affects various NPC questlines, but the depths is the intended area (in terms of progression, difficulty, and not requiring backtracking) that you need to go next.

>>187266901
Yes, generally speaking things at the bottom of a section are considered worse than those above it and vice versa with items at the top. It's not as wide a gap compared to mid or top tier.

>>187267027
Alright. I'll continue along exploring these tunnels.

I'm planning on doing some kind of Dark Souls 1"total conversion" mod thing where its basically a fan edit with custom shit, like different balancing for weapons/stats etc, starts in NG+ and gravelorded etc, try to make the game more bleak etc

I also want to change enemy spawns, move things around. Put loads of Black Knights in Izalith instead of a bunch of the golem fucker spawns, put those Izalith Sarlac monsters in Blight Town instead, Put the white demon's from Anor Londo in forest or something, fill forest with way more stone guardians instead of treefuckers, replace some mushroom men spawns with big cats infront of sif, put some Anor londo Giant Knights at the end of Sens Fortress, etc etc etc etc.

Is this a thing that's possible? To alter the games files and hard change values of things? Maybe it can be done via some kind of cheat engine script that loads with the game?

Just kinda clueless and I really want to do this, I'm a designer/3d artist, so I'm currently redoing the entire user interface and icons etc, modifying some textures etc

I'm also wondering if it's possible to change all the ingame text and even voice overs i.e replace the audio files. Like, fully revoice the and change bosses names etc.

I'm basically trying to turn Dark Souls 1 into an unofficial Demon's Souls 2 6th Archstone "Land of giants" thing basically. I want to stick some Umbasa's and mentions of Boletaria in place of Lordran in the games audio and text as well, which I can do if there's a way to mod that stuff also.

Or is this something I should be asking (((them))) on (((that site)))

>>187264340
Why is the Hollow Greatsword lower than the other High Tier Greatswords?
Not disputing it, just wondering. The 2h r1's are pretty good at roll catching people rolling around you, and the pokes hit hard.

I guess the average scaling?

>>187267371
For a second I thought you were that one fag who always, always complains about Wolnir's being too high.

Hollowslayer is shorter and has less AR, IIRC. It's basically just one-upped by the claymore.

>>187267371
The infusion changes made it comparatively worse compared to the Claymore. It has average Greatsword range and the basic good Claymore R2s outside the unique 2HR1s. But a Sharp/Heavy Claymore will now out damage the Hollowslayer easily, and the Claymore can also be elemental infused with Dark or something else to deal with shield turtles which. It also lacks AR compared to the Black Knight Sword and it outranged by both the Wolf Knight and Onyx Blade. It's still a great weapon and your points are right, it's just comparatively worse now along with a lot of other vanilla non-infuseable weapons since From didn't change any of them with the infusion patches.

>>187267347
>Is this a thing that's possible? To alter the games files and hard change values of things?
Theoretically, yes. You'd need a bunch of people with a lot of experience with decrypting game files and a lot of hours into reverse-engineering the game.

Realistically? No. Even if you had a full team at your disposal, you would have to basically bruteforce your way into figuring out how things like enemy spawns are stored and how to modify it.

Dark Souls is stored as a compiled, compressed, encrypted set of files, and while some of them can be unpacked for modding (there's a tool for this) a lot of the values and such are not known. It's also unknown if changing things like that would break other things. It's not like a bethesda game where such things are laid out in plain view and are intuitive to mod.

Things like icons, UI, etc. are easier to find than editing the map, enemy models, spawn points, etc.

Probably the most extensive mods involve swapping items and models for items out with other things, such as the item randomizer, or simple UI / font changes.

If you had a few thousand dollars and a bunch of part time modders on payroll to help you, yeah you could do that. But for every bit of your ambitions, half of what you want to do will end up running into massive problems. For every "simple change" you will need to make 3 different complicated changes.

I'm not saying it can't be done, but it's well beyond the resources of a single modder to make that big of a change. It would almost be easier for you to use unreal engine and make your own dark souls fan game from scratch, since that's well-known territory instead of dealing with the unknowns of modding the base game.

>>187267781
>>187267704
Oh, okay. I've only just picked up DaS3 again after the last DLC.

Does Mugen have the changes made to infusions?

>>187267897
I mean, take the chart with a grain of salt. Hollowslayer Greatsword is still a Greatsword, which gives it a ton of bonus points right out of the gate.

>>187267897
Yes, mugen is updated with all the latest AR changes.

There's also SoulsPlanner now which I recommend over Mugen for build making in terms of ease of use and info displayed: http://soulsplanner.com/darksouls3

>>187267867
Yeah, I'm thinking you're right. I think I'll leave it to just cleaning up the interface and icons etc, though I am running into some weird issues with UI stuff that seems to even be a problem in stock game (seams in the UI where elements literally are not lined up properly)

Don't suppose there's a fix for that is there? :P

>>187267987
>>187268031
Alright cool. And thanks for the new website.

>>187268119
try romhacking or other sites where modders frequent

you might have better luck with hacking sites because most problems like this are unknown territory, so you need to reverse engineer solutions.

If Zullie is still on this thread (they used to do all sorts of neat hacking for DS3 and post webms of it, like making bosses playable characters) they might be able to guide you with some of the enemy spawns. I haven't seen them around for a few weeks though.

I'm biting the bullet and taking Arstor's Spear and Storyteller Staff for my level 45 Co-Op build. It will probably be awful, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

What is a good weapon to switch over to if I get sick of it. Preferably something that is good to help lower level people.

>>187268374
Forgot to mention, I can re-spec if I don't like Arstor's.

>>187268374
raw sellsword twinblades with resin.

Dark Hand.

warden twinblades with rouge

heavy lothric knight GS with gold pine resin (especially if you pair it with a healslut faith build like projected heal and filanore's chime WA).

Executioner's greatsword, which works well with replenishment and healing miracles, better than arstor's spear.

>>187264340
>most of the bleed weapons are rated so low these days
Did Bleed builds get a huge nerf?

I remember using Carthus Curved Greatsword with Carthus Rouge, hitting once then chaining the Weapon Art into it for like a one shot on some low vig players.

>>187269047
Yes, Rouge got a nerf, the only way to reliably bleed players now is using blood infused weapons or certain other combos, the former gimps your actual AR heavily. Also any player who wants to just fuck you over at higher levels can just pop a red moss clump since it's almost instant use.

>>187269047
>Did Bleed builds get a huge nerf?
Yes. They're great in pve but about pointless in pvp.

Blood infusion procs easily, but lowers damage significantly.

Rouge doesn't work on its own unless the weapon is already bleed oriented, and other resins do more damage in the long run.

Bleed is possible if you use hollow infusion bleeding weapons with 35 luck, but that build caps out really low in damage potential, and compared to other twink strategies like vordts it's not worth it.

Why did DS3 have to be so disappointingly average?

How so I get the most out of the Black Knight Sword?
Still on my first playthrough of Ds3 (in the ringed city right now) and it has become my favorite sword for now.

>>187269521

Bleed values got lowered, Rouge got it's power cut by 60% from 50 to 20.

Bleed is mediocre now. You can be cheesy at low levels and maybe get a bleed after five hits with a rouge'd CCGS.

>>187269969
there isnt a game in the souls franchise where they don't give you really good bows, then expect you not to exploit the fact the enemies literally never have the AI to react to maximum range bow spam unless they are specifically placed ranged/archer enemies

that said, play your own way man. don't feel guilty of inferior because you did something your way and didnt adhere to some minmaxed PVP build. DS1 and 3 arent amazing about really allowing that kind of freedom but if you end up playing DS2 i dont think theres a build that's rediculous or memey enough not to get you through the game long as you're leveling up

>>187269984
I've honestly always believed that the MLGS is the best Co-Op weapon.

Just carry repair powder on you at all times. Most enemies are predictable as fuck if you don't PVP, so you can pretty much just spam the beams. Even the Weapon Art if you want, since if both the beam and the blade connect, it does FUCK HUGE damage.

Tough enemy? Ranged beams.
Slower enemy with high HP? Double connecting R2 or Weapon Art.
Too much FP cost on Weapon Art? Carry a Executioner in your off-hand.

It's retarded how powerful the MLGS is in PVE. It might not be the most powerful in pure DPS. But it's definitely the most versatile and offers the user the easiest time.

>>187270671
Too bad I can't get my friend to drop spells. Guess I'll just Raw Astora for fucking ages.

Not so much worried about builds. I'm kind of boring though. I always assumed dark souls was essentially a hard 3d zelda. I feel like I'm mostly correct so far. As such, I'm going sword and board, enjoying the crap out of it, though I think run 2 I might go pyromancer.

I have spent so much time gathering resources for weapon upgrades. Still not sure if there's even any point to me making a set of Magic/Fire/Lightning longswords to go alongside my Balder sword, but it seems like a fun thing to do.

>>187270660
Nvm took him down

What is the best weapon to abuse Executioner FP Regen?

I've been using this on Millwood Greatbow and it's been incredibly fun, if a little ineffective when helping people. Throwing out an almost infinite number of explosives is cool, though they don't do too much damage to warrant the slow ass speed and massive stamina cost.

So I was thinking a good weapon with a good weapon art to spam might be good. Maybe something with a powerful ranged attack?

>>187270182
Immolation Tinder looks pretty neat.

>>187270393
Great I've been wanting to use the mlgs anyway. I'm thinking going Int/Str with a bit of faith, sounding good?

I did that yesterday, was utterly destroyed, then told by rest of anons to start anew because going down to catacombs first for good loot isn't a good idea because the way back is near impossible.

Anyways I've been enjoying DS1 alot more than 3. Every weapon feels unique and seems they have a use instead of just spam R1 to win.I like how I only have enough stamina for 2-4 swings depending on weapon even at 20 End and how much stamina roll cost instead of just spamming it endlessly.

>was essentially a hard 3d zelda.
Ocarina of Time was a major influence on Demon's/Dark souls gameplay, so was castlevania.

The customization, style of story/lore, and leveling mechanics are all Armored Core though.

>Still not sure if there's even any point to me making a set of Magic/Fire/Lightning longswords to go alongside my Balder sword,
Each boss has different elemental resistances. But since Fire/Lightning has no scaling, it's best if you are using it on bare minimum str/dex, and magic/enchanted/

If you want multiple weapons, it's better to have something heavier or lighter or with longer range, etc. like a spear or halberd, so you can swap between them for the situation, since some enemies are slower or are easier to fight with a longer-reaching weapon. Another weapon type to have would be something with bleed, since that's highly effective against some enemies. Or sometimes use one weapon for DPS against large enemies (like a katana) and another for One-hit-kills (like a greataxe).

>>187271609
What else am I supposed to use early game? With no loot, and little stats. I haven't touched the DLC's either.

>>187271681
literally anything can carry you through the pve, and the best early pve weapon (sellsword twinblades) is a starting class weapon

>>187271609
For a low stat build early on, i.e. faith users. There is nothing wrong with ASS. It does the most damage for pretty much anything pre-irithyl short of the heavier weapons. And might even start dropping in quality around catacombs.

It's terrible after, but early on it is the best weapon to carry faith low stat

>>187271609
>if you touch the first tomb of the giants bonfire it can be quite annoying going back up
That's uh. . . exactly what I did. So yeah, had to start new save since I died alot of in that Dark Tomb, and way out was through Skeleton on Wheels. 3-4 anons just recommended me to start anew.

Also God, fuck this Blighttown. That Dart Toxic does alot of damage, atleast if I block those darts I take reduced buildup.
And who thought it was a good idea to put a Katana on a platformy place! Even though it has quite nice moveset.

>>187271957
if you're still naked, the toxic is a lot worse because the darts stagger you

I think if you have at least 1 poise (maybe 5) you won't be though

>>187271957
>tfw stumble upon ash lake before lord vessel

>>187272023
I'm using shield to block the darts, they're slow enough to dodge, but I rather not risk it if I'm facing against these naked guys and end up falling down. I do think I have 40 poise though, Wolf Ring alongside Havel is really useful.

I like rings being powerful but only have ability to use 2 of them instead of 4. I actually like alot of things in PvE here compared to DS3.

DMB is completely unnecessary for making a character viable, lightning blade works just fine

bountiful sunlight just needs a single tongue. It's overrated too, since bountiful light has nearly the same effect but with much, much faster cast speed, so it's practical to use in actual battle.

Is SotFS a decent enough game after you get over the movement weirdness?

>>187272751
Yes, very much so.
It's definitely a more open-ended experience compared to DS3, that's for sure.

>>187274239
Because they look cool, something this game desperately wants to avoid their characters doing

>>187274235
Yeah.
I also kill Solaire, Quelaag's Sister and Priscilla on all of my playthroughs.

In over 700 tongues, I have never pointed down

My preferred emote is to just start sipping estus and walking away, but if I have no estus left I use quiet resolve.

If somebody annoyed me, I equip bloodlust and sudoku over their corpse

>>187274239
Mainly because the game would benefit greatly from the added variety (I know I would welcome a sword and spear with innate Lightning damage and/or Faith scaling). Plus, you can almost always get the equipment that humanoid enemies wield, that Silver K***hts are the lone exception is pretty damn retarded.

>not throwing dung pies all over them, clapping and throwing Very Good carvings onto their corpses
It's like you don't want to really shit on your opponent's skills.

>Siegmeyer, who willingly chose to ignore his dying wife in favor of adventure, and wasn't even that competent at adventuring anyways
>Yoel, who tricks you and corrupts you with the Hollowing curse in order to turn you into Yuria's pawn
>Sirris, who's stupidly incompetent at fighting and easily breaks her vows as a knight

>>187273925
If you alt+f4 instead of quitting after you respec with Rosaria, you'll keep your new stats without using up a tongue. This also keeps your rebirths as is so you can respec infinitely instead of just 5 times.

>>187274964
>Siegmeyer, who willingly chose to ignore his dying wife in favor of adventure, and wasn't even that competent at adventuring anyways
Fair enough, but he was still a bro and it's sad that his demise ultimately comes as a result of you taking what little honor he had left by saving him constantly.

>Yoel, who tricks you and corrupts you with the Hollowing curse in order to turn you into Yuria's pawn
Yoel was just trying to do his duty and Yuria a cutie with a booty

>Sirris, who's stupidly incompetent at fighting and easily breaks her vows as a knight
It's still sad seeing her corpse in front of her father's grave.

Do I get hp back as an invader if the party kills mobs?

>>187274937
>not using the stalk dung pie into patches squat true combo
You can do better then that.

>>187275062
Ah, I'm on ps4 and I know that you can Close Application after hitting "Confirm" on the respec screen to have infinite respecs but I don't know if that saves tongues.

She's had to deal with your bullshit for long enough that being given actual shit doesn't faze her.

>>187275437
I don't know about you, but I really like Patches. He's a dickass thief and I hate him, but I also don't. I couldn't help but have a big, stupid grin on my face whenever Lapp kicked me off the ledge.

None. So far everyone has deserved the swording I gave them. Mostly it's been monsters though.

How would one go about trying to make a more traditional RPG feel when playing through the games? This includes things like using classes and varying restrictions. The main problem would be the run easily turning into a generic run that could also be done co-op as most RPGs have parties instead of just going solo, like Dragon Warrior. I'm trying to think of a way to do this for any of the games, but primarily 3, as that's where the most people are right now.
Also have some cute cats.

>>187275487
>use storm ruler against the giants in Irithyll and Irithyll dungeon
>nothing special happpens
iirc

>>187275268
Yes. That's the entire point. You don't need to be the one who gets the kill in order for the effect to proc. Force the host and his buttbuddies to chase you through mobs, and every three or four of them gives you enough HP to tank another R1.

Why is the Morning Star worse than the Mace?

Just dried finger that shit harder than namebro fingers his little sis

>>187277416
It has innate Bleed effect so it's basically the Mace but it's good for shit that's weak against bleed.

Oh Jesus fuck.
I accidentally found few invisible walls because of my habit of hitting every chest, and now I'm knee deep inside some tree filled with Mushroom Saitamas , there is a Hydra and a nice Dragon.
Also, is this the same place as the one in Tomb? I remember going into Tomb and when I was near the Orange wall I saw alot of trees and blue lake, it seems like I went down one of those trees and a Dragon is hiding behind another one of those.

Also . . is it feasible going back up or did I fuck myself over again just like I did by entering Spooky Tomb early like last time?

You beastly idiot.

Anyway, Witch Of Hemwick kinda has an interesting gimmick but is a bit crud as a boss. Celestial Emissary is almost literally the Royal Rat Vanguard from Dark Souls.

I've fought O&S like 20 times and I still can't beat them. I've gotten to the second stage only 4 times. I had supersmough with literally an inch of health but he charged me out of nowhere. I have no humanity so I can't summon shit and I want to solo it anyway. I'm 2H a claymore because I can't use shields (LB button doesn't work on controller).

2nd stage smough isn't too bad, I can get him pretty low. But 1st stage I die 90% of the time. I try and bait ornstein and smough to attack so I can get 1 or 2 hits but a lot of the time smough just fucks me.

What the fuck do I do?

have 27 vit, 26, end, 30 str so far
