Right before you jump in with it, casual.
git gud
so many faggots that dont know how to use invincibility frames
hilarious
>>334309927
You can die to that boss?
The game keeps fucking crashing for me.
>>334310240
turn lighting to low
The boss I died the most to was Aldritch, about 5 times total.
Every boss in the regular ng is surprisingly simple which is frustrating.
Looking forward to King of Storms on ng+, Aldritch's arrow magic can keep sucking a dick though.
/blog
As for OP just fucking git gud and maybe don't start with the 3rd Dark Souls game.
>>334309927
ABSOLUTELY CASUAL.
GIT GUD, BOY.

The bosses are fucking amazing in this.
I'm glad there's no initial fog wall so you just walk into a boss room without knowing sometimes. Gives them a better entrance.
>>334310632
>I'm glad there's no initial fog wall
Wew, how is it to be in the first few minutes of the game.
>>334310735
Does it not stay like that? God damnit that's lame.
>>334310805
The majority has a fog I think.
>>334310805
There's no initial fog for ever boss i've met so far, actually.
Thats like four or five
>>334309927
>20 attempts on the first boss
The crystal lizard took me maybe 11 attempts because the spear attack animation is trash and i didn't have another weapon.
The boss took me two attempts, mostly because i reached it the first time without any estus because using the bonfire CRASHES MY GAME.
It's not bad for a jumping sim
This happened to me too
>start as deprived
>can't tank the boss because the plank shield covers like 40% of the damage
>no stats and gear so you get killed in two hits
>no stats so your club does jack shit
>>334311034
i started as an assassin and I tried the crystal lizard once and said fuck this
then died about 5 times to the first boss
continued on but wasnt feeling the rapier or my character so I started a new game as a knight and beat the crystal lizard in 2 attempts, and the first boss in my first attempt as a knight
>>334309927
>attempt number 20
please be joking

Why?
Anyone have tips for dancer chick, phase 2 is fucking ridiculous
>>334311143
Learn to roll. He telegraphs attacks so you should know what's coming after a couple tries.
I was getting my shit wrecked too
This is my first souls game and I thought for some reason I should dodge roll and try to parry every attack for some reason
As soon as I started using the shield it became ezpz. I beat vort the first time
The tree fucked my shit up though until I realized how retarded I was not going for the joints
Are you not supposed to play the game with shields? They make everything much much easier
>>334311712
Don't be a fat faggot. Her combo is easy to even dive in.
>>334311690
>>Starting as deprived when you're not good
always played as a shielfag and I want to change that so I'm making a no shield run

>Complaining how your shield doesn't block damage
You're an idiot.
>>334309927
A friend of mine who doesn't play anything with a controller pretty much ever, who pretty much only plays league of legends and nothing else, and who has never played dark souls before in his life beat the first boss on his second try.
Are you actually retarded OP?
>>334311880
This is by far the toughest first boss in souls games, not counting Vanguard
>>334310013
underrated post
I hate this game at the moment, killed the first 3 or so bosses in my first or second attempt, having some fun, get to the swamp, FUCKING CRYSTAL SAGE PUSHING MY FUCKING FACE IN EVERYTIME ITS BEEN LIKE 2 HOURS AND 50+ ATTEMPTS KILL ME
>>334312025
>it's the toughest
>not counting the toughest
Glad we had this talk.
>>334312068
So take a break. Come back in a few hours or tomorrow after relaxing. Stop trying to brute force it.
![dark-souls-3-uchigatana-master[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/hOdLuJr.jpg "dark-souls-3-uchigatana-master[1].jpg")
The only enemy you should be dying to in the early game is homeless katanaman.

i try to run but it just keeps going
>>334312257

Sound pretty upset to me.
>>334312192
Shame he can't fucking stay alive in boss fights
He died to Champion Gundyr in about 10 seconds for me.
>i played it solo with quitarhero controller and used my toes...and what do you know, my first run was also my no death run.it took me like one and a half hours total.
it's another "not even hard" thread

No he's not
I think it is YOU who belongs in the trash.
"Dark souls is the hardest game I've played in years" - Millennials
>>334312068
Crystal sage is easy just charge right at his face and once you hit him once you pretty much win
>>334312284
they'll float in the air for a bit then randomly all go for you
listen to the sound queue for when their being fired and dodge as soon as you hear it, behind some pillars preferably
>>334312087
Well he's not designed to be beaten that early, phalanx is the proper first boss.
You can only die to this guy if you mindlessly mash attack without even trying to walk away from his attacks, let alone block or roll.
>>334310215
This boss is literally harder than the second boss.
Also if you started as deprived you gonna get hard time killing him and the samurai.
>>334312475
I get him low-ish every fucking time but his clones do 70% of my health in one hit and stunlock/dead
>>334312543
>Not designed to be beaten that early

Glad we had this talk.
>>334309927

He is, you cancerous faggot. That's why you get access to a special room and cutscenes that you can only get when you beat him.
>>334312595
When it gets to second phase, each time he regenerates his clones keep running and move camera around until you see the sage producing the purple spells, that's him. Ignore the rest and charge that fuccboi
>>334312264
A shame she fucking rolled off a cliff the first time I encountered her.
>>334309927
>casual
>>334312264
Felt satisfying killing her after like 5 tries.
>>334312589
In Gundyr's defense, that second boss is shit.
>>334311772
They become a bigger problem as the game goes on. You can take the hit but it'll drop your stamina to the point where you can only attack once before having to back off. I found shields are only really useful as a last resort between dodges.
Shields are way more useful in the first two games.
>Check out weapon specials at the start of the game
>MFW dagger
Time to be a dick-ass thiefand get destroyed because it has shit range and damage
>>334311582
I'm playing mercenary, I'm having tons of fun with those twin blades!
I've always used a shield with a sword, I was scared at the beginning only using two swords, but now I'm blasting through enemies with no problem and with style!
>>334311143
most of the shields are garbage for bosses in DaSS3. Just use those crazy invincibility frames from rolling

I've played dark souls to death, but I'm wondering if I should get SotFS or just get back to it after I play through 3. What's the wiser course of action?
>>334313081
I sense bravery.
>>334312589
Deprived here, he took me 5 tries before I was able to fight his second form without rolling into that claw. Samurai fucked me up pretty bad still.
>>334312589
i feel like if you pick deprived you have no right to complain. it's a self-imposed handicap.
>>334313209
not that you're complaining or anything just stating it's rough goin'

The only monster so far I find very annoying to kill are those fat bastards in undead settlement.
Why is every boss in this game so easy compared to das 1
I beat almost all of them on my first or second try
>>334309927
I easily beat it as Depraved, lvl 1 and fucking naked.

>>334313452

Don't know boss
>>334313434
>>beat second boss in two tries
How the fuck can you die to him, SHiN? Confirmed to be casual.
>>334313452
probably cause shit is sped up now so you can't overplay and get fucked up cause nothing went through cause you were still mid-animation
>>334312595
Use throwing knives, the clones are 1 hit kills and the real one won't disappear until you've done a lot of damage so knock out all the clones then go after the big guy. That's how I did it at least
>>334313429
Its a reddit meme.
>>334309927
The game is pretty tough.
Especially the in-between mobs. Lots of shit that can fuck you up within 1-2 hits. I had to finally drop the i-frame ring because at 20 Vigor I was getting 2-shotted by the majority of the enemies.The ring is actually pretty shitty after playing without it. The hit to resistances doesn't warrant what I barely noticed in i-frames.
What happens IF Icutdown the bridge inthe catacombs?
>>334313585
Well, I didn't expect him to go berserk and charge like a bull in his second phase
So how the fuck am I supposed to deal with this fucking game crashing all the time
It's crashing every time I load the game now at Firelink, before I even get a chance to move
>>334313757
Literally get good.
>>334313724
can you walk on it without it breaking? I was too scared to try and went around
>>334313724
It makes a ladder on the other side and leads to a new area.
>>334313731
Post the face of your character.
Also the first boss that is kinda tough is the super pope Pintoiff or whatever.
>>334313724
you canclimb down it
>>334313757
That's the new difficulty, better get good!tfw 60 fps and no crash

i beat him first try as a deprived, this boss is trivial if you played bloodborne.

>>334313964
This. The bosses are sorta designed with the speed of BB in mind.
I don't have a close up, sorry.
Crystal lizard gave me a lot more trouble than him. Had to fight lizard 3 times, first boss...i think damaged me twice. You just suck OP, just being real senpai baka

>It's hard to fully play this game on a weekday.
I haven't died on a single boss yet and I'm up to the catacombs. Have I just not found a tough one yet? Regular enemies can be pretty tough but the bosses in this seem kinda disappointing so far.
>mfw I beat him first try as a Knight
Is this "the first boss is too hard" thing just some poor meme?
>having trouble with him

Good luck OP
>>334314479
The first tough boss is in the ice area. There are only 2 bosses that can give you trouble that are story related.
>>334314479
First difficult boss is the boss of the zone after Catacombs

Artorias Jr. is hard if your not quite familiar with Dark souls and how the hitboxes, invincibility frames most boss attacks work.
He is pretty much a standard boss
>Horizontal Attack
Roll toward him
>Grab
Strafe to the side of him
>Jumping ground pound
Walk away with shield
>Everything else
Attack his sides and back
There is little to change to this with his transformation either. A good thing to remember is in this game is that the closer to the opponents balls and can stab him in the ass your good unless the enemy throws out a move to specifically get you away from its balls and ass.

>mfw he suddenly started using this weird dark mass
>mfw fighting him, being suprised and terrified at the same time

I love this game so far beacuse the atmosphere that was lacking in II is back, that feel of fear when the boss charges and becomes powerful while you have no idea what the fuck is going on is amazing.
>>334315431
>that feel of fear when the boss charges and becomes powerful while you have no idea what the fuck is going on is amazing.
Agreed, and that happens several times in the game too.
>>334315308
Maybe because people don't read up on how to find all the best items in order to minmax in their first playthrough.
>>334309927
you know you can just keep parrying his first stage right? Oh wait you probably don't even know what that means! L M A O!
>>334315431
Same exact thing for me, my palms were nice and sweaty.
>>334309927
Its possibe to die to that boss? How?
>>334312192
If anyone is having trouble with homeless katana man all you have to do is to lure him to the ledge. While you back is against the ledge just roll towards him to switch places and just keep spamming attack. He will fall. Exit to main menu and go back in to pick up his loot

Like, holy shit just stop now. This shit was easy mode, it's just going to get harder from there, might as well just re sell the game at this point.
Are there any legitimately good polearm (spear/halberd type) weapons?
I've only tried Astors spear, Halberd, and Lucerne so far, and they're all trash.
It doesn't help knowing how strong and versatile greatswords are, too.
Are most people finding this game easy?
Completed all the other games, and the formula is the same. I have had 1 or two deaths per area and only died more than once to the abyss walkers so far.
Im just at the christmas castle, so far having a good time not had any frustrating bosses or moments yet.
>>334316271
Not necessarily. Iudex was really hard for a first boss. His 2nd stage at least.
It took me over 10 tries to beat him and I've mostly breezed through everything after that up to Depraved Capital.
Is it just me or invaders can only invade people with phantoms?
>always in ember form
>9 hours in the game
>no one invaded me ever
>summon or get summoned for coop
>getting invaded instantly
For those who don't get it yet: complaining about Ludex and Vordt is literally a meme.
No one actually has problems with them.
>>334312192
jump off the cliff, he follows you
>>334316472
you're more likely to get invaded if you have a phantom with you, but they can still invade you while you're solo
>>334316441
Honestly, the mandatory content is easy.
Some of the optional content, though, is pretty hard if you try to tackle it at the standard level.
Like the Knights up in the ceiling area of the deep cathedral. That shit is near impossible.
>charge moves
>can stun enemies and perform visceral attacks
>game is faster
>bosses are more aggresive
This game is literally Bloodborne with a Dark Souls skin.
>>334316738
Holy shit.
I've never seen a more delusional post.
Bloodborne is a skinned Dark Souls, not the other way around.
>>334316738
And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
>>334316472
I never summon in Souls and I've been getting ganked by invaders.
They're all floaters or immortal cheaters though.
I got him first try.
It's not that hard.

>>334316847
Well there is, the game could be more like DaS1.
>>334316738
yeah I felt that too, feels like you need a lot more aggression in this game. Back in the original dark souls you could literally grass creast shiled block your way through 80% of the bosses, but in DAS3 the bosses just shield break, stamina break or simply smash you around for a while. Fighting med-long range is a no-go as the boss counters are ridiculously powerful and many bosses become a case of Hugging them for as long as possible and rolling to get into that hug range
>>334316738
It's only Bloodborne if you're using a Quickstep weapon.
Unfortunately they all suck dick.
>>334309927

>>334316949
Amazing logical point, friend.
>>334317080
>Unfortunately they all suck dick.
The claw has a pretty good damage output, the only problem is the shitty range, but for PvE you shouldn't worry about that.
>>334317192
>Not even trying to deny it
Thought so
>>334309927
Watching so many previewers dying to this guy I thought he might actually be challenging.
That large form has super generous hit boxes on everything, he whiffs you with 75% of his attacks.
>>334317225
Claw doesn't have quickstep. It has that jump shit.
>>334312714
It's clearly a bonus area for experienced players. He practically one shots you, no one expects a new player to beat him.
The Asylum Demon, Last Giant/Dragonrider and Phalanx were all huge pushovers, which was the original point before you started nitpicking.
Even if you don't agree he's the hardest, he's certainly not the easiest.
>>334317048
>went to fight Champion Gundyr for the first time
>using a fucking greatshield
>he combo though my stamina while I'm blocking and still manage to kill me while I'm in full health
I'm pretty sure he's the most aggresive boss in this whole game, Pontiff doesn't even come close to him.
Boreal Valley, need a doll.
Give me a rough idea where to look
>>334316738
>This game is literally Bloodborne with a Dark Souls skin.
No shit faggot, it uses the Bloodborne engine. Did you really think that it wouldn't feel similar to Bloodborne at all, given that?
With that said, literally everything about the game is a step up from BB.
>>334312661
>people getting stuck in the tutorial
How will they ever beat the Pontiff?
He is literally dragon rider 2.0, his 2nd phase is easier than 1st

I haven't been so mad in a souls game. But, seriously, it just got fucking worse from there.
Made me really have to learn to git gud at pvp
>>334317326
Dragonrider is such a fucking pushover I mean god damn. Had more trouble with the fucking green fags guarding him, and those guys are super predictable. By far one of the easiest bosses of the series.

I really enjoyed SotFS and loved the DLC, but I understand that's a controversial opinion. Personally I'd still say play 3 since now is when it's gonna have the most community. Souls games are great at release, since it hasn't been min-maxed to death, there's a lot of summons and invasions, and everyone's discovering what to do together
>>334309927
First and 2nd boss is literally suck its fucking dick, I guess the "3rd"boss is also like that too.
>complaining about the first boss as ANY class
Literally put your shitter shields away, parry his attacks with your fists, then dodge it up for phase 2.
>>334317736
Why would I suck the dick of an abyss monster and ice dog?

It's fucking retarded, I have no idea why I'm failing so hard on him, I get him down to his second form every time pretty quickly but his elemental damage and attack patterns in form 2 are just not clicking with me at all.
I might need to use a different weapon, I've had a lot of fun using the claymore and it's served me well but maybe it's just not enough for him.

Good job retard.
Thanks I guess.
All the people saying the bosses are easy mode are playing melee characters right? I feel like these bosses are harder for sorcs than previous games for some reason.
>>334309927
you can parry him m8 try that
>>334317957
Funny thing is bosses in DaS3 are much easier than in other games. Maybe you're just out of practice.
>>334317957
You can knock him out of his breath cast shit with a ranged weapon or throwing dagger which gives a great opportunity to get some damage in.
>>334313081
DSII is a game that feels like it got outsourced, but SOTFS is pretty good as far as amount of content goes, it's just not as good a souls experience as the Miyazaki games.

Most likely, I feel like an idiot because I realize Vordt isn't doing anything that is hard to figure out but I just for whatever reason have a hard time killing him faster than he can kill me with his ice aoe effect.
I'm stuck on the second fat bitch in undead settlement or whatever it's called. Why does she one shot me every time when the first one didn't.
Nameless King would be better without the first phase.
>>334309927
jesus christ dude. i think this game is extremely hard and i beat the first boss first try twice
By far the hardest first boss in the Souls series. I liked it a lot though. Had a nice rhythm to him which helps you get familliar with the roll mechanics early on. Also transforms as a heads-up of things to come.
Took me six tries as a deprived with only the club, which is more tries than I spent on Asylum Demon when I was completely green on the series.
>>334318043
>A boss being in an area is a spoiler
Here's another spoiler for you, there's a final boss you fight at the end of the game.
>>334310632
Based tree suprised me because of this.
>>334318115
But that attack is so slow it seems best to run up beside him and just go for it, does knocking him out of it stagger/stun him or something?

I have a few places I haven't finished looking around, I just wanted to save a little bit of time since it's getting late.
You killed my motivation to carry on for the night.
>>334318435
Alright I'll have to remember that.
>>334310013
i lol'd
>>334318043
>There's a boss in an area of a Souls game.
>You have to kill it to progress.
WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT.
It's a bunch of priests, by the way.
Han Solo dies.
>>334318448
I wasn't the one who spoiled you m8. It just might be a good idea to either avoid discussion threads, or ask more clearly for a deliberately vague answer, the guy probably thought he was being helpful by being detailed.
>>334309927
How to beat him
Fuck Champion Gundyr. Fuck Nameless King. Fucking fuck.
>>334318448
>exact location
No he didn't, he told you it's where the boss is, you don't know where the fucking boss is.
Ok faggots STR build is the only way. Dex niggers need not to apply
Just killed Abyss Watcher. What should I craft with his soul? Also, he's an awesome boss fight. Not spectacular or much too difficult but he's cool. His second phase has some pretty moves.
>>334318448
Did anyone ever tell you that you're an ungrateful shitsack?
>>334318947
Agreed. I'm doing Greatsword atm and it's pretty awesome.
>>334319010
Not wolf blade. Farrons moveset is fucking amazing.
>>334318627
>ask more clearly
You'd think 'rough idea' would qualify
>>334318726
There's a difference between exploring an area looking for something and knowing it's at the end of that area and fully exploring won't get me to it.
>>334319043
Can you not read? I actually did say thanks.
>>334318043
>>334318448
I was the one you asked, and tbqh, if you ask for directions in a game you don't want spoiled you are fucking retarded idiot.
>>334319239
I didn't need a map, just a compass.
>>334318448
Good. Use the free time and kill yourself then.
>>334319152
"There's a boss in this area" is pretty fucking rough considering there's a boss in literally every area. Whoops, sorry for the spoiler.
>>334310013
stomp him in the nuts
>>334319326
I don't care what you need, you asked and I responded.
You gotta deal with digging your own grave son.
>>334318947
>Not using the Halberd.
That unwieldy slab of worn metal you're carrying around just goes to show that you have no tasted in refined weaponry.
It's an axe. It's a spear. It's a motherfucking Halberd! What more could you possibly ask for?
>About kill iudex, barely took any damage
>You have lost connection to the servers, returning to title menu
:(
>>334319414
You responded in haste and didn't even take the time to read what I asked properly.
>>334316317
Red-hilted halberd is pretty good. It's in the sewer under Undead Settlement, near the statue of Velka.
I am kind of disappointed, though. Halberds were the best in 1 and 2, but the range seems to be nerfed and the damage doesn't quite make up for the speed.
>>334319070
Yeah. Destroying Weeaboos who use uchikatana and invisiroll. One even used 4 estus in 1v1.
>>334319152
>There's a difference between exploring an area looking for something and knowing it's at the end of that area and fully exploring won't get me to it.
Why would the boss be the end of the area? How do you know there's only one boss in the deep?
You're certainly assuming a lot of things for a guy so angry about being "spoiled"
>tfw no wikidot for ds3
fextralife is so fucking bad
>spent a titty slab on getting my uchi to +10
>get Onikiri and Ubadachi 15 minutes later
just fuck my shit up senpai
>>334319152
Saying thanks and being grateful are totally different things.
Or are you one of those autistic children who think that saying anything bad to someone is okay as long as you quickly follow it up with a "Sorry"?
>>334309927
keep going, man. It took me 183 tries to get past that guy. the knight miniboss at the high wall of Lordran fucked me up about 73 times after that, and honestly I haven't even made it to the boss of that area yet, but I expect that will take me at least a few dozen tries.
>>334319554
Name 1 boss that isn't a dead end or a transitional area?
Guys I started a thief and I do so little damage and have to rely on parries just to do anything. Did I fuck up? The dagger art is retarded. Rolling is just as good.
>>334319670
I was grateful for the info. A little annoyed it wasn't in the form I asked for but that's about it.
>>334319698
Dragonslayer armour.
>>334319645
Not sure how many you can get but i found three on my first playthrough at least.
>well this boss fight was easy, don't know why everyone is saying its so har-
>THIS FIGHT IS NOW FUCKING RADICAL
>>334319645
there are atleast 3 slabs you can find and you can buy them later
>>334319645
There's like 8 slabs per playthrough so it doesn't matter m8.
>>334319617
>looking up secret shit in the area I'm in, in any souls game
>fextralife shows up first
>Always garbage
Wikidot is so fucking good, all other fan wikis should just shut their shit down.
>>334319406
If I'd been told either half of that informoation, it would have been totally fine.
Bosses I've managed to kill in one attempt:
>Iudex Gundyr
>Deacons
>Dancer
>Wyvern
Bosses that took me more than four attempts:
>Abyss Watchers
>Sulyvahn
>Dragonslayer
>Demon King
>Oceiros
>Champion Gundyr
>Namless King (still haven't beaten)
I should probably just give up on Nameless King. I still haven't even tried Lothric.
>>334319937
lol got thought exactly the same.
Second phase was badass.
>>334319978
>fextralife quality
http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Kos+%28Mother%29
I keep getting wrecked by this knight on the walls
>>334320206
lothrics actually easy as fuck
>join aldrich covenant because why not
>invading another world within 2 minutes
>immortal hacker
>falls off a cliff because of the archers
>invade again
>different immortal hacker
>lure him into a bunch of enemies and BC out
>invade again
>different immortal hacker
why are people so bad?
>>334320160
And this proves that you are actually autistic.
>>334309927
The "tutorial" boss was incredibly difficult as giftless Deprived, mostly the second phase because it's so hard to tell what the boss is doing. I didn't expect to get utterly obliterated for being a bit rusty right off the bat.
So far I've been extremely happy with the difficulty of the game, Dark Souls 2 flip-flopped between easy and annoying but this one usually feels fair.
My only major complaint is that almost every boss I've fought so far doesn't play nice with lock-on targeting, but the hitboxes are so strange that if you don't use lock-on you'll likely whiff despite appearing to be hitting at least part of the boss.
>>334320284
A faggot with red eyes? I gave up. I beat the fucking boss on my first try bit that faggot destroys my anus.
>>334320424
There's something off about the hitboxes, but at the same time some of them are more precise. In earlier games some of the bigger overhead hits that I feel like would normally hit you now correctly follow the models and go over your head. Also, I'm noticing a lack of DUDE SHOCKWAVES LMAO and teleporting grabs in general which is pretty nice
>>334320351
>hacker
I've had connectivity issues where everything was unanimated and sliding, yet I could still attack, without getting damaged by anything. Not players, not enemies, not even bosses. It has happened more than a handfull of times too.
Might be that.
>It's an "Invader with a Greatsword has a shit connection and his swings dont even have to hit you to kill you" episode
Does anyone have an image of the big black spider-like enemies? They look cool as heck.
How do I get up there /v/?
Is that later in the level past the fog wall behind the big altar or what?
I backtracked through the level but saw no way of getting there

>it's a "you have to stand directly underneath the boss" boss
>no way to tell where you are, what direction you're facing, or what the boss is doing
>lock-on breaks off randomly and when it does you probably won't even notice immediately
FUCK YOU OLD DEMON KING
>>334321236
There's a ladder near one of the shortcuts.
>>334319152
Aspie as fuck

>>334321318
Hopefully Bamco learned a lesson of "Less Is more" with their marketing, doesn't take a qualified marketing expert to know that was the wrong fucking way to market the game.
I'm playing a sorcerous sorcerer. My first souls game too. What should I level next and should I invest in pyromancy?
