Daily reminder kill yourself tier weapons
You know every time you bitch about it like a pussy you just tell everyone exactly what they need to beat you every time.
>no estoc
>no farron greatsword
>not just any greatshield
I hardly ever see Havel's greatshield. Is it because I don't play at the meme level and just invade people who are actually trying to progress through the game?
whats so op about the dark sword? its so basic it just has good scaling
>>336733103
You need a ton of carry weight to use havel's without fat rolling. Most people don't invest that many points into carry weight until they're like SL160+
>>336733161
Nothing incredibly overpowered about it, it just has all around good things that when together on one weapon make it a clearly best choice for 95% of PVE.Moveset, attack speed, stamina use, scaling, obtainable early game,. The only thing that sucks is the shitty pirouette R2 that never hits anything.
>>336733161
It has dumb range. The damage problem goes for straight swords in general.
>>336732664
Farron Greatsword isn't even that...well, great, it's parry bait, especially the L1 and the damage is piddlyass compared to most any other UGS tier weapon
>>336733161
It's just a 4chan meme.
Dark Sword has best AR among ss's but worst moveset and uses more stamina per swing than any other ss. It has 20 more AR than a Longsword at +10 Refined or Heavy.
daily reminder that the moonlight greatsword looks like fucking shit. It's brown and don't glow.
i'm still mad
Greatshields in general need a nerf. They are more of an issue then estoc/dark sword
I love it when a dude invades with the dork sword they all do the same thing running r1 (easy parry) followed by endless r1 spam. Rinse and repeat. I give em a wack with my refined astora gs (2h as well cos noobs try to parry lmao you cant) and stun lock em bad. Theres a milion weapons in DS yet 90% of the people use the same darn thing :/
>>336731592
>not having a bleed weapon to deal with greatshield users
You deserve to lose
Why is there no Irithyll of the Boreal Valley map?
>>336733926
AGS is on the same level as the DS now. A meme weapon. People only R1 spam it like the Dark Sword.
>>336733968
retard alert
>>336734376
That only retard is you, you can thank me for my suggestion later
>>336733968
>hit someone 20 times to inflict 30% of their HP
You have no idea how predictable you are. Might as well wear a sign that says "parry me".
Daily Reminder: You're only mad because you've died to them.
>>336734462
you can literally roll out of the max bleed threshold and negate all damage just like das 1, kill yourself faggot
>>336733968
>387 tier tip
>>336734541
Carthus Rouge buff stacks with bleed, and if they have a means to parry that means they switch off their greatshield to spam that parry button. Just kick them or go for backstabs in that case.
>>336734720
>waaah I can't deal with greatshields
Follow your own advice retard baby
Does Dragons Roar work against Havel? Ive only able to test it on other greatshields
Tfw parry babies can't handle my guts ultra greatsword
>>336734938
To this day I've never been killed by anyone using bleed. Stop giving advice you haven't actually tested.
>>336735063
>guts outfit
>greatsword
>that eclipse
it's like pottery
>>336735115
Bleed isn't a means to kill, it's very good for pressuring turtles. They realize they can't block everything so they stop blocking, it actually works. Go apply carthus rouge to a washing pole and see magic friend.
>>336735283
>>336735063
TELL ME WHY
TELL ME WHY
>>336735063
you cant parry any ULGS 2 handed r1 and r2
same goes with great hammers and greataxes
>>336735326
Ah. That explains it. Your entire shit strategy revolves around the idea of making inexperienced shitters panic.
Get real.
>>336735396
feels good to be a gangster
>>336735396
actually got parried while two handing recently, it is possible
>>336735449
Whatever you say faggot, it works for me. I've been doing at SL100.
>>336731592
>shields are weapons
There is literally nothing wrong with using the Dark Sword
MEMERS OUT
What if i used a raw reinforced club for the whole game?
>>336735378
rememba ur grasses friendo
>>336735604
>didn't finish his shield only run
What's the optimal stat layout for a quality build?
Is it still 27/40?
>>336733161
it has really high AR for its speed and range, and the way poise works means you can stunlock people for 2-3 hits before they can roll away
>>336735525
i exclusively said r1 and r2
you can still be parried out:
any 1handed attack except jumping
some weapon arts, like the charge
2handed rolling, 2handed running, left handed attacks, 2handed backstep
>>336731592
>being so scrub you can't counter scrub weapons
friendly reminder to use an estoc + Havel's greatshield if you want to make fags cry about it on here
>invade
>eight times out of ten it's ganker squadrons waiting by the bonfire who attempt to summon another phantom
I fucking hate this fanbase.
>>336735837
This
I don't even care that i have to fight 4-5 players at once. I just don't get why 99% of the players summon 3+ phantoms everytime and as soon as one dies they run back and try to summon another one. That shit never happened in DS1 or DeS
I never used the dark sword. Why is it great again? It has nearly the same stats as the broadsword.
Anybody know where to find or buy an Estoc? I'm literally in NG++ and I'm pretty sure this is one of the only weapons I don't have. In fact, I think it be THE only weapon I don't have.
>>336733215
>weight
That's why you use Glory and not Havel's.
>>336736074
It's not, it's average at best. Retards can't parry so that's why they complain about it.
>>336736084
Have you never sent Greirat to pillage? Well he sells one after his first run.
Abyss Watchers is the least fun boss I've fought in the Dark Souls series, it's literally worse than fucking ganksquad in DaS2 DLC. These fucks at least didn't have dash attacks, 360 tracking on rolling attacks and respawn mechanics.
I don't even fucking know how I killed these fucks on my first playthrough. Twin Princes, Nameless King, Champion Gundyr and Soul of Cinder were easier than Abyss Pissers.
>b-but they fight each other!
no, only one of them is hostile towards the other. two faggots keep attacking you.
Fuck this boss.
>>336736074
it has the optimal damage, speed and range out of all swords
>>336736074
It's no better or worse than the other straight swords. The difference between them at +10 and refined is completely trivial and essentially comes down to which moveset/weapon art you like the most.
What are some good quality weapons that don't weight a fuck ton? I'm tired of the BKGA
I hear Lucerne is pretty good
>>336736254
git gud
>>336735837
To be fair, the problem is the networking allows them to do this. There seems to be invasion priority given to hosts with phantoms. Meanwhile, if you're a host and you don't summon anyone, it's very unlikely that you'll get invaded. I went through most of the game while kindled and only ever got invaded in the second half of the boreal valley after pontiff
>>336736254
>>336736254
Literally killed them my first try using only a bow.
Git gud.
>>336736074
B/B scaling
best range
best AR
quick spammable attacks
low stamina drain
stylish moveset
Daily reminder easy pale tongue farming strat

>using only a bow
well that's why you killed them on your first try.
>>336736398
>>336736423
fuck off, they're just not fun to fight
>>336736414
What the fuck? Has anyone officially addressed this? Logically, it would be the other way around.

hey retards
in dark souls 3 bleed doesn't build up through greatshields
thats why you're retarded
>go to Dragon Barracks bonfire
>equip Lothric Knight armor set
>be embered
>equip Way of Blue
>use Tree of Giants Seed
>use Dried Finger
>use "Sleep" next to any cluster of empty armors sitting on the floor
>enjoy the show
I do feel a bit guilty when a Blue takes too long with the invader and a second one arrives, but one actually managed to make one Red kill the other by accident.
The spot near the tree above the stairs on the right is usually the best, since you can see the whole courtyard and battles virtually never extend there.
>>336737028
I wouldn't know. Nobody's stupid enough to try bleed in PVP.
>>336736796
The problem is just overall gimping of online in order to appeal to casuals. That's why invaders always end up invading those with summons, why hosts are now allowed to have 3 fucking summons (apparently 2 wasn't enough), etc
Where is the nameless king? I rung the bell by the belfry, so where to now?
>>336732648
This. Saying "this is the faggot tier weapon", is basically saying "I can't beat this"
>>336737186

Have fun being raped 100 times
>>336736868
>the most cheesy form of play: ultra passive, never swing until the other player swings first
>efficient weapon
ah right thanks for proving my point with your pic, animetard
>>336737137
>Nobody is stupid enough to try bleed in PvP
But Bleed is actually pretty good in PvP m8
>>336737313
They'll stop doing it when it stops working.
If R1 spam is enough to take you down then you deserve to be taken down.
If it's not then you wouldn't be complaining about it, you'd be applauding it because you can beat it.
>>336737313
>I can't parry: the post
>>336737224
guess its not op then xD kill yourself
Any other STR bros using a heavy greataxe like me? Don't know what it is about the engravings on the side but I love them.
How are the kicks against a Havel's greatshield with the horsehoof ring? Is it worth using that ring against one?
>>336737801
Only if you know how to time your kicks properly.
Most people don't.
>>336737571
Ok, I'll make sure to impale myself on the sword you got angry over losing to.
>>336731592
>eh plays dark souls
casual confirmed, its the new COD meme game
I have been trying to grind the achievements for a while. Does anyone know if you have to have all the +1 and +2 versions of the rings too before you get the "All rings" achievements?
I also have one hidden achievment. Any idea what it could be? Something related to endings?
>>336737968
Got an image for people like you
>>336737703
It's a solid STR weapon that's for sure. Great Axes and Great Hammers shit all over UGS in this game.
Try out Yorhns Great Machete if you haven't already. Probably one of the best STR weapons there is.
>>336736616
I can't even tell if you are baiting or not.
Estoc is worse than Dark Sword
shields are fine, I consider them fine for PvP since they don't work in PvE
>>336736254
I don't understand, there's nothing difficult about that fight. You can generally kill the watcher and force him into phase 2 before even the third one gets up.
>>336733971
>he needs a map for yet another corridor game
wew
What's a good weapon for Sundowner cosplay? I want to do something with this beauty.
>>336739015
Wait for the twin machete dlc
>>336731592
Best weapon combo is the obscuring ring and the dragonslayer greatbow.
>>336739015
Yhorm's machete?
>>336735693
What's a quality build anyway?
>>336739603
A build with strength and dexterity.
>>336739603
Balancing Str/Dex and using a weapon that scales well with both. Usually people go 40/40
>>336739603
Investing into both Strength and Dexterity and using a weapon that has scaling for both.
>>336731592
Estoc + Havel's Shield is the true cancer of the PvP of DaS3.
Does anyone use the exile curved gs? Started fucking with it after abyssal , seems cool so far.
>>336735693
Unless you're investing in faith or something it's still 40/40
>>336739998
It's a fantastic weapon because R1 + Weapon Art combo.
It's also relatively fast and has some hyper armor.
A solid all rounder.
>>336737313
so what, you only want to trade blows and have a dps race?
This is my first DaS game. Doing a two-handing Str build since I'm fresh off the boat from monster hunter. Other than Str, what stats should I invest in? Is there any way I can get more FP and not buff a useless stat, or should I do pyromancy/str mixed?
>>336735449
Are you implying that the whole invasion game isn't just making shitters panic? That's the entire point. I can't make NPCs run away in fear. I can't make NPCs spam the roll button as if it were going out of style. I can't make monsters re-evaluate every action of theirs until they inevitably get too greedy and make a mistake.
That's the whole game. Embrace the gank. Taking out phantoms is the greatest mind game of all time.
How's the lothric knight sword? It's either this one or Longsword for me, because broadsword and darksword have shit movesets.
>>336741314
110 crit. Good reach. Looks cool as hell. I think it does a TINY bit less damage, but it's not much.
It's a good choice.Longsword moveset best moveset.
>>336735698
>for 2-3 hits before they can roll away
I still don't get how any of this works. What is it that determines how/when you can get out of stun?
>>336736414
>Meanwhile, if you're a host and you don't summon anyone, it's very unlikely that you'll get invaded. I went through most of the game while kindled and only ever got invaded in the second half of the boreal valley after pontiff
This bothers me a lot too. 3 days into DS3 and have been kindled all through. Where the fuck are my invasions? Only red bro I fought I summoned myself. Shit is disappointing
>play Dark Souls
>dex build
>get Great Scythe
>destroy everything
>>336741750
So you get stunned. If you get hit too fast after that, you don't get restunned, and can roll out.
If you get hit before you regain control, but after the stun, you get stunned again.
If a enemy hits you with a attack that keeps on going, yeah, it sucks.
