+5 titanite? Good luck finding any more titanite every again, buddy!

Not really, no.
Titanite is abundant in DS1, especially shards. And any +5 weapon should do just fine in the early game, provided you have the right stats to match the scaling.

>>321500469
Fatrolling is tied to your weight. IIRC, you need to be below half weight to fastroll. Your carry weight can be raised with Endurance, as well as some equipment.
>>
>>321500469

Endurance dictates your maximum equip load. Check your gear and do some math. Below 25% load you will fast roll. There is no "shitty heavy armor" that's retarded. It's all about weight and looking good. Go naked for all I care

Since you're going for a PvE build most likely then invest in heavy weapons with A scaling in STR. Dumping levels past 50 of an attribute has diminishing results; avoid that

You don't really many options from the start of the game as far as weapons go, but you're not going to get a lot of damage output with a short sword.

>+5 shortsword

Solid weapon that you can beat the game with if you want to. It's just the long sword with one less weight and less range. Nice for a ranger or rogue character.

Move set matters more than anything. short/long are solid move sets.

Other early game good weapons:

>winged spear
>patrisan
>long sword
>bandit knife
>long bow
>estoc
>reinforced club
>claymore
>halberd

Just pick whatever suits your play style.

For upgrades, do your weapons first, then your armor, then your stats. Your stats are the least impact.

>>321500036
>longswords are better but stop being a faggot and get a greatsword

Great swords are for faggots.

Longsword is 1 unit more weight, and unit weight matters more early game.

Clubs have the same stagger as great swords, weigh less and are cool. It's fun to make a shirtless barbarian with a reinforced club.
>>
>>321500469
>i went knight to start and quickly realized heavy armor sucks ass because you can barely roll for shit,

That's why you mix/match. Wanderer/Thief are very good light armor. This way you can get a mid roll.

Seriously, nigger?
Mid roll is absolutely fine, I've played through the whole game up to NG+7 with mid roll without any trouble.
Fast roll is basically baby easy mode for braindead players who suck at timing their rolls. Dark Souls games are actually very generous with the iframes it gives to the player.

what is this "scaling" of weapons you guys are mentioning
>>
>>321503626
Weapons get bonus damage in addition to the base damage of the weapon itself based on the player's stats.
The better the scaling the more bonus damage.
>>
>>321503626

Weapons have letters near their name.

Longsword is C/C/. C for Dex and Strength. The higher the letter, the more bonus points it gets for damage.

Damage is weapon power + stat bonus power.

Some weapons are A or S.
>>
>>321503564

Broad Sword and bastard sword have bad movesets compared to long sword.

Long sword is good, but short sword is 1 unit less weight which can make a difference.
>>
Is Estoc good?
I've always heard that it's this great weapon but with only C dex scaling and relatively weak base damage the decent moveset hardly seems worth it. I'm trying to run a relatively glass cannon mage and I plan on enchanting a weapon later in the game. I started Deprived, so far with 20 points VIT, 14 END, 12 ATN, 12 DEX, 14 INT.
Since beating the Bell Gargoyles the estoc seems really weak, even +5. I only net around 30 points of dmg vs most enemies each stab. Granted, I've not put much into DEX but if I'm going to enchant the scaling is going to suck anyway. Should I hang onto it for late game enchanting power or go for something else? I was personally thinking dumping some points into strength for Moonlight Greatsword or some other cool looking big anime sword. Maybe depending on Heavy Soul Arrow is my best bet until I can enchant my weapons with spells (before magic ember)?
>>
>>321503626
Bonus damage for weapons beside the base damage, and it's showed by letters (S/A/B/C/D/E), while higher you get a higher damage bonus, and those scales depend on what stat they scale, if it scales A on STR and you have high STR you'll get a high bonus damage.

>>321504065
Bastard is Great Sword, but yes it has a bad moveset, and I forgot the best long sword which is the Balder's Side Sword.

>you can buy infinite titanite shards from the first blacksmith in the game, which can get you up to +5

>>321504172
Upon remembering that Velka's Rapier has INT scaling instead of FTH for whatever reason, I now ask whether or not Velka's rapier is actually good or not. I grabbed the peculiar doll immediately after ringing the bell, but will it be worth it if I only have the weapon for half the PvE content? Sorry this is all kind of autistic.
>>
>>321504172
In PvE? Not really.
And if you're going for a mage build, there's really no reason not to go for the MLGS.
Although if you plan on pushing into high tier NG+es, you'll need a fast weapon you can enchant. My personal favorite is falchion.
>>
>>321504309
Doesn't he only sell 10 until you give him an ember, then he sells infinite?
>>
>>321504172

Estoc is great. Compare it to straight swords like Longsword with C/C scaling.

It's a rapier, meaning it can be used while the shield is up. You can also use it to poke like a spear or longsword when two handed. It also has a sweeping attack that no other rapier has.

It's a rapier that is a cross with a straight sword. No other rapier has the reach.
>>
>>321504448
That's dark souls 2, chump

>>321504448
That's Blacksmith Lenigrast in DaS2, and no, he only sells 10, but his daughter Chloanne sells infinite once she moves to Majula and you finish Iron Keep.

Good melee weapon to magic enchant?

I was thinking scimitar because of the light weight, but not having a thrust attack is kind of lame.
>>
>>321504742

It's all about balance. If it had no flaws it'd be the perfect weapon.

Balder Side Sword is clearly a rapier, and has B dex scaling. But it's a straight sword, and lacks shield poke entirely for balance reasons.

>>321504842

Short sword. Rapiers are neat.
>>
>>321504931
How does Velka's hold up vs. Estoc?
>>
>>321504842
Scimitar is just an inferior version of Falchion.
The first game has quite a few of straight upgrades, like falchion, broad sword etc.
>>
>>321505151

Falchion is heavier though.

Doesn't weight affect stamina drain on attacks?

I'd rather do a mite less damage for an extra swing in a pinch.
>>
>>321505081

Richard' Rapier and Velka are both specialty versions of the standard rapier. Medium range, same move sets but better stat scaling.

Estoc has the huge range, better move set that I like more over all.

Yeah, that's obvious. I just assumed the weapons in the same class, i.e. curved sword in this case, always have the same stamina cost per swing.

>>
>>321505848
I say go for it; I'm playing through it now for the first time after loving the shit out of DaS1 and honestly it doesn't deserve the bad rap it gets on /v/.
A lot of times it goes for quantity over quality and tries (and often fails) to mimic DaS1 at every turn, but that doesn't stop it from being a genuinely fun game. I always hate the phrase, but "It's a good game but a bad X game" really applies here. Its super fun, but when viewed through the lens of the tight adventure DaS1 was it falls a bit flat.

It has its low points, with unfair enemy placement and poorly designed areas (WHO THE FUCK DESIGNED THE SHRINE OF AMANA FUCK) but overall I'm having fun. I just got the King Ring which I assume is a pretty big deal.
>>
>>321506000
Really? I never noticed that, but then again, I barely used Estoc in my playthroughs.
Should be really nice combined with a weapon enchantment, since in DS1 it did full damage on every hit too.
>>
>>321505848
I did. What a fucking mistake. I'm going to be honest with you, it's a lot different from Dark Souls 1. Enemies in groups of 3 or 4, even 6 sometimes are common. The level progression is shit. There isn't much in the way of early armor or weapons. I haven't seen any magic shit yet having beat two of the first bosses. There are fucking exploding barrels everywhere that constantly blow up. Half of the content is "LOL DARK SOULS IS HARD" and I'm not even kidding. That's all anyone in the game says. You're punished for dying; you lose up to half your health if you die a bunch. So you can't even fuck up when they made it a point to try to fuck you up. If you want to level up you have to use homeward bones to go back to the bonfire or else you will lose your souls because the enemies are fucking stupid. Rolls don't work the same at all. You can't riposte. The enemies will spin like tops if you try to backstab. The setting doesn't make any sense. The NPCs have the slowest, most boring dialogue and all of it tries to be exposition while saying nothing.

/v/ exaggerates A LOT when it comes to DaS2.

Sure its the worst so far, but its not nearly as bad as /v/ says. If you enjoyed the first one there's no way you wont like Softs, because despite a few tweaks here and there the gameplay is still pretty much the same.

Also the multiplayer is alive and it acutally works, so you'll get summoned and invaved pretty much anywhere

>>321506432
Except for the fact that there's no uncracked red eye orb so nobody bothers to invade, making the Way of Blue useless since you won't get invaded anyways, which makes the Blue Sentinels useless because nobody's gonna need your help.
I've played the whole damn game as a Blue Sentinel while wearing the ring and I haven't been summoned once.

A black knight greataxe and a stone greatshield.

I had no idea how lucky I was to get those drops
with zero knowledge or farming.
>>
What's online like for the 360 this time of year.
>>
>>321507151

Two handed Iaito with no shield or poise (light armor). Had to dodge everything. Did it like a boss.

What should I use for my knight in DaS2? First playthrough. Been going with a bastard sword up to +4 so far but I'm already sick of it.

Or go kill Havel and wear the Elite Knight hat with Hard Leather armour and Wander Gloves/Boots for the holy trinity of Fast Roll, decent defense and Fashion.

I litterally can't play Dark Souls 1 without Havels ring anymore.

>>321507151
I went Balder swag sword and silver knight sword with brass armor my first time. You know, for style

The games calls it Atribute Bonus, you can see it in your inventory when you get the detailed view of a weapon.

It's basically the effectiveness each point in Strength/Dexterity/Intelligance/Faith will have on your weapon.

- = nothing, Leveling this stat will do nothing for this weapon
E = Terrible, almost no bonus from that stat.
D = meh, Leveling that stat will have a small increase in damage from that weapon.
C = Decent
B = Good
A = Excellent
S = Have as many points as you possibly can in this stat for using this weapon since each point has a huge affect.

Most weapons have STR and DEX scaling, weighted differently (EG Scrimtar gets E scaling from STR and B from DEX, so having high Dex is good, and Str will help a little) although some only have STR or DEX scaling.

Weapons that have non physical damage will have FAITH or INT scaling.

No idea, PS3 is pretty busy though. I got invaded 4 times today on my newest character as I was just kindling bonfires.

Nothing wrong with mid rolling, I pvp with mid rolls and it works fine. Sounds like you need to learn to time your rolls better.

threads like these make me wanna pick up the game again. Then I remember where I rested last time I played.
>>
>not maxing out the Balder Side Sword first
I really hope it makes a comeback in 3, so I can just safely ignore every other weapon in the game, confident I'm using the best.
>>
Objective best DaS PVP weapons

1. DMB/SLB Pike You're a faggot if you use it, though.

Mask of the Mother
Elite knights gauntlets
Elite knights leggings
DWGR
Wolf ring
Great combustion
Fire surge
Firestorm
Poison/Toxic mist

I beat every boss besides Gwyn and Manus when I found the red soap stone. Man I miss the japping hour on Das1 Ps3.

>Bloodborne

So you're saying if I like medieval fantasy games with medieval weapons and shields it's essential to play the bloody, gun slinging, Victorian London, horror spin-off?

Okay.

You forgot about the blowdart cunts in blighttown
>>
>>321518551
>>Remember Capra demon

Kill the dogs. Run to the stairs, drop off, hit him when he does the same. Repeat.

>>Remember basilisks

Wear curse resistance. Either the ring or the ragged robes.

>Remember Sen's funhouse

Loved that place. One of my favorite levels.

>Anal Londo archers

Run normally. Dash, then run right, roll under the arrow. He'll switch to his sword and then parry him.

garbage moveset
dragon greatsword is loads better despite the damage decrease

No one here uses Uchigatana? Srly???
>>
>>321518551
>that glorious feel when for the first time I get past the archers without a single death
>>321518984
Apart from the first time round they're no trouble at all. There's only like 3 or 4 of them outside of the firekeeper soul room, and they're in very easy to remember places.
>>

Not all of us can aspire to be gay beyond fucking belief, so no.

Last night I reached Ash Lake for the first time. I'm cursed, I haven't fought Queelag yet and stuck on the Stone Dragon bonfire

How fucked am I?
>>
>>321522581
Depends, how much farming are you prepared to do?
>>
>>321522581
>>321522676
I'm not sure there is a way out of there without teleporting
>>
>>321522676
If I can get my brain to turn off and go full deadpan automatic mode, maybe an hour

You telling me to start making clam chowder?
>>
Fuck I can't decide what build I'll make in DaS 3

>>321498665
A +5 zwei can take you through NG+ without inordinate effort.

Run back up the tree, spend your souls first as you will die again and again and again.

>I litterally can't play Dark Souls 1 without Havels ring anymore.
Who the fuck plays without Havel's once they get it at all? Like, excepting specific situations where you want some special resistance, its basically the best thing in the game.
>>
>>321522906
Are you telling me to get past that bitch of a hydra again?

Fuck no, I'm coming back here after getting the god damn soul vessel and +10 divine clay
>>
>>321501367
And catches on fucking everything. I hate that and can't stand going back to it.
>>
>>321501774
>just got to anor londo and still using it
I'm in the exact same situation, but on NG+.
>>
>>321523026
I don't get what you're saying. You are stuck at ash lake, i assume without the lord's vessel. You have to climb up the tree to get back to blighttown. As far as I know, there is no other way to leave ask lake.
>>
>>321504309
>you can buy infinite titanite shards from the first blacksmith in the game

This is wrong.
>>
>>321523026
Also, the clams drop purge stones, it'll get rid of your curse.
>>
>>321505843
I beat them first time straight up. So no, I don't. I did get that feeling from the Bell Gargoyles though, which gave me way more trouble.
>>
>>321523304
Yeah I know, but it's not too fun to kill a single clam and then bonfire, that shit owuld take hours

I dodn't expect there to be basilisks in that fucking tree
>>
>>321523501
Use the hydra to kill the clams. When he spits water, pull the clams for cover.
>>
>>321505843
>>you will never refeel that feeling you got the first time you finally won
You mean my first try?
>>
>>321507151
Claymore is love, Claymore is life
And Elite Knight armor cause why not. With the FAP Ring and Havel's it was easy to keep a medium roll.
>>
I never beat Dark Souls quit at Sith, got bored. Hoping to actually beat Bloodborne so I can say I beat one of these games, I did the same thing to demon souls and dropped dark souls 2 fast after renting it.
>>
>>321518551
>Capra
Get a medium shield to +5
Tank Capra's first hit along with the dogs, get staggered but roll out of the way before he can attack again
Kill dogs
Kill Capra

>>321497442


hell nah senpai. shortswords is a reliable weapon. wont ever turn on you. do your thing. build a relationship with that motherfucker, you got a long road ahead.

>>
>>321507151
>First run through

EK set and Divine Zwei/ Artorias Greatsword/ Darkmoon Claymore
>>
>>321507151
Two handing Scimitar, later Furysword. Only the lightest possible armor because I saw some video about superfast rolling if you can get close to 0 equip, and /v/ said to roll. Never used a shield because I liked the twohanding damage increase. Capra was the worst boss in the game for me.
>>
>>321507151
Divine Halberd and Black Knight Shield I got off the first black knight. Elite knight set.

I always do a faith/Halberd character as my first since DeS. I miss my mirdan hammer
>>
every weapon in ds3 has a unique combat style. no more copy pasted sets
>>
>>321525206
I hope it doesn't mean the weapon selection will be as anemic as BB. I liked the variety but there just wasn't enough until DLC.

I'm going to assume you either meant Sif or Seathe

If it's Sif then stay under his legs and he literally can't hit you

If it's Seathe then just break the crystal thingy behind him so you can actually hurt him
