Will we ever get a level better than 3-1? Will DeS ever be topped?
I doubt it

Hi guys, Menas here. Anybody wants a commission?

Will DS3 have region lock?

>doesn't know how blood arena works
Ha
No seriously though you don't know shit and you claimed the game was dead, if its dead post a webm of you trying to invade in an orange area and failing 4 times in a row.
Am I supposed to know who the people I'm killing are? Every time I get a "great soul embraced" message I'm surprised because I have no idea who these people are and their fights aren't particularly hard. Just killed the rotten and before that lost sinner.
>>128036339
Don't worry. Dark Souls 2 doesn't have a story. Just enjoy the epic difficulty xD
>>128036293
anyone have the latest ds2 weapon tier list?
Why the fuck is the first bonfire for Tomb of the Giants not right after Pinwheel?
>>128036695
fume sword is greater than the others
>the chariot's horse in the middle of nowhere in Drangleic Castle
>ruin sentinals for no reason
>desert sorceresses who somehow climbed all the way up in that freezing rain, evaded all the statues and ghouls, and are just hanging out in the storage room
I don't get it
At least in Lost Izalith you can go "oh they're demons so they're hanging out in their home"
For what fucking reason are those enemies there? Fuck this game
>>128036770
enjoy the epic f*cking diifculty brohan!!! This is Dark Souls!!!
>>128036770
Because Pinwheel is not a boss.
>>128035634
On the other hand, it has world 2-2, which is a serious contender for worst area in the series.
And remember - THIS is the only correct chart of DaS bosses.
Otherwise you're a dirty cumguzzling faggot who wants to confuse newfriends.
>pinwheel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb-HRDIiRXA
>>128037112
?
2-2 was fine
if anything 5-2 is the worst because no rusted iron ring
>>128036770
Pinwheel isn't all that difficult, and the next bonfire isn't too far ahead.
Besides if it was right after pinwheel you'd have to do the slip and slide down the coffins again.
>>128036954
SotFS did have a lot of sensible new enemy placements- the Flexile Sentry in the Sinner's Rise pool, the big Lost Bastille mummy nigger on the No Man's Wharf ship, the Pursuers actually pursuing you across the world. It also had some really stupid fucking bullshit.
>>128036954
My personal favourite are the twin flexile sentries in Eleum Loyce just watching over a key in a sealed cave.
>>128036954
>caring about the lore implications of enemy placement in DaS2
DaS2 created a promising basis for lore but chose to just shovel in DaS1 fanservice instead of building on what it had. Don't worry about it.
>>128037261
Pinwheel isn't hard, but giving the player that many souls and then requiring them to get past a bunch of incredibly hard-hitting enemies while they try to find the next bonfire is just setting them up to lose those souls. And if you do die, if you want to get back, you have to go through a room with five or six wheel skeletons in it.
Yo.
Do people still play DaS, or is 2 more popular now?
>>128036074
I'd say Sca. He's a miracle among Souls artists (not as godly as Menas tho but still very, very talented).

Honestly that bossfight is so fucking stupid.

Yo I haven't played demon souls but black gulch is honestly making me want to quit I can't believe this shit. Why the fuck did they drop an NPC invader in with a bunch of fucking poison statues everywhere staggering you and draining your health?

>>128038719
What the fuck is hyperpoise. Is that like super armor in smash bros or something, what the fuck?
After trying to figure how to kill these two faggots, the host disconnects the second I kill his stupid overleveled phantom.
At this point, I think I prefer disconnecting hosts at the last minute as opposed to indictments. I just know they're just boiling with hate.
>>128038982
I'd say for you not to get your hopes up too much. I've been playing it for a month now and while it does have good things about it, it handles a lot of things terribly. The worst are invasions and how 60% of the game is optional.
>>128039312
what level are you? do you just invade forest?
>>128039275
Hyperpoise is hyperpoise I'm not going to bother trying to explain it to someone who is pretending to be retarded or actually this dumb.
Maybe you'll get lucky and someone else will wast their time writing up the expanation for you
Why do all the good fights in DaS contained in large open areas or specific areas?
Let me first list for you, all the fights in Large, Medium, and Small sized arenas. Just read the names and ignore the letters for now.
>Spacious, larger Arenas
Kalameet (A)
Quelaag (A)
O&S (A)
Four Kings (B)
Gaping Dragon (B)
Gwyn (C)
Artorias (A)
Sanctuary Guardian (A)
Sif (A)
>Medium-sized Arenas
Asylum Demon (B)
Bell Gargoyles (A)
Priscilla (B)
Gravelord Nito (B)
Manus (A)
Demon Firesage (C)
>Cramped, smaller Arenas
Stray Demon (B)
Capra Demon (C)
Ceaseless Discharge (C)
Centipede Demon (C)
Gwyndolin (B)
Iron Golem (B)
Moonlight Buttfly (C)
Taurus Demon (B)
Seath (B)
Pinwheel (C)
Just think to yourself how you would rate these fights. My opinion on them isn't the important thing here.
We may have some disagreements on the size of each arena or the quality of each boss, but I think we can agree that there is a correlation between arena size and quality of the fight. I put a letter next to each boss to signify if I personally think its an (A) good, (B) average, or (C) poor fight in terms of overall quality.
This is incredibly interesting to me and I'd like to hear other's opinions on it.
>>128039559
Sorry that I'm apparently retarded for not having the extreme foresight to know that there is a new mechanic in DS2 that wasn't present previously that isn't explained.
Why even bother typing out the reply then anon you silly goose.
>>128038914
When is Bloodborne coming to the PC?
Okay
How the FUCK am I supposed to beat Maneaters without cheesing them
>>128039153
and just kinda wiggle it around? Sure
>>128039441
Invading the Royal Wood at SL60.
I invade anywhere and usually places I know I can be a pain in the ass.
PVP is insufferable. Swing, move away, roll. Dude stabs a spear 20 feet to my left and it still does full damage to me.
Why is this still not fixed in 2015?
>>128039669
Sanctuary Guardian's pool was no larger than Nito's arena.
>>128039832
There's a bundle being released together with dark souls 3, It will contain bloodborne, demon's souls and a jar of tears.
>>128039965
P2P
>>128039736
No your a retard for asking me instead of using google
Now keep being dumb and wrong, doesn't matter you are not actually a new player either, just someone pretending to be retarded to try and prove some asinine point that literally nobody cares about
>>128039869
Seperate them, and try to attack when one flies away or tries to power up. Also, dont cut the tail.
>>128039965
>he didn't walk around in circles
>>128039669
Man, I fucking loved manus. Beating him after he killed me time after time was the greatest triumph for me in Dark Souls.
>>128039965
>>128040125
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDUk80ef-Rk /dsg/ bottomless pit of retardation
>>128039994
Not necessarily, there are 3 bone giants in the back of his arena that limit the actual area you have to move in. I'd cut Nito's area in half - that's all you actually have.
>>128038713
>>128038837
>>128038902
Stupid AI is one thing, but Bed of Chaos is still the single worst thing in any Souls game.
>>128040282
this video is an awful reddit circlejerk, do not watch
>>128038713
Bed of Chaos?
Do people hate this boss so much they unconsciously put it out of their mind?
>>128040486
>watching any video that anyone posts ever
>>128040486
Already peeked, going to kill myself now.
>>128040298
Perhaps so. I'd agree that big arenas tend to correlate to good boss fights, perhaps because the arenas are made to reflect the boss itself. A good Souls bossfight is one with varied attacks that you have to be clever about dodging. Dodging is easiest in a large area. A boss fight in a small area is necessarily designed not around dodging, but around feeling panicked and trapped. See: Capra Demon.
>>128039736
You're being memed, no one calls it hyperpoise. Some attack animations give you a jillion poise during them to make greatweapons slightly less shit.
>>128035605
Impressive filename 'Menas', totally legit boys lads.
>>128039134
Just make him face the edge, force him to do a few swings and he'll do his stupid back hop right off the bridge

Fucking kek
DS3 is gonna be even worse
>>128040486
very different from your "SPINNING CREATES LAG" circlejerk, right?
>>128040658
Yeah, its this exactly, great point.
When you can't actually make use of the game mechanics properly it feels terrible.
>>128040193
Manus was easily the hardest boss for me, only boss I had to summon someone during my first playthrough.
Every DLC fight is incredible imo. I still get a hard on during Kalameet and Artorias and I've come to really enjoy the SG.
>>128040887
*face the wall, with his back to the broken edge
Not sure where I was going with that first post
>>128040901
It's a parody. Spinning does not create lag, it's something das1 players who couldn't handle das2 pvp started spewing around reddit and infested dsg for quite some time.
>>128041131
I meant that this video exists. Not the spinning thing. But seriously P2P is garbando
>>128039965
I've always hated it, but I enjoy having player notes around and being able to do co-op when I want to, so I'm stuck with the constant chance of assholes coming in to stop my progress in the game.
Seriously, I don't know why so many people love it so much, but to each their own I guess.
>>128041213
someone had to make fun of the retards who actually believe spinning in place creates latency
>>128041331
It doesn't create latency, it just exploits it.

Why is Heide's Tower so boring. I mean it's one of the most atmospheric and good looking part of the game, yet the gameplay there is really simple, just like the lazy level design.
>Go to blood arena, sit crouched for 10 minutes, finally get a fight, dude teleports behind me, punches me and I instant die

I really hope they have an Old Monk style boss fight in Dark Souls 3
>>128045425
Careful there's a skeltal
>>128045826
Problem with Old Monk is that every invader you got was some faggot who would try to Wrath of the Gods you through the fog wall, and if you got the NPC invader then it was a shitty claws faggot who was never a threat
http://mmdks.com/7w0n
This is the best Dragonbro I could come up with on my own. It uses the Havel's Greatshield R2 to get poise instead of the wolf ring (you unequip it after buffing so you can ninja flip). Is there anything I should do to improve it?
(also it's supposed to have a canvas talisman equipped in the left hand)
>>128045826
The Mirror Knight invasions were a pretty nice idea I think.
>>128045826
Looking Glass Knight style would be better
IE an actual boss with a player summon as an addition, having a player replace the entire boss can be such a shitshow, having a boss with the addition of a player is much better
>>128044978
I don't use them because all they will teach you is to go for trades and running attacks. They have some cool movesets, though.
>>128034883
what is this giant doing here, doesn't seem to be any way to get there

>>128047184
Y'know the first bridge that drops into the pit of tar?After the first ladder up from the pit there's an illusory wall that has a bigger ladder that goes there. (I think).
>>128047184
There is actually for you anyway, how he got there is magic. He is the one that opens the gate
>>128047184
You can get there. Drop down into the pit at the start of the funhouse

alright, thanks. imma go investigate
Maybe I should've kept some of those clothes that I gave to Rosabeth after all
>there are no dead bodies with items on them that awaken during your item pick up animation and perform a grab attack
What are From's designers even there for?
>>128046852
>>128046893
It was nice in theory but the fact it was almost impossible to get summoned for the mirror knight completely ruined it. Even right now with how dead the online is for Demon's Souls I can easily get summoned for the Old Monk. When Dark Souls 2 was new I would wait hours and get maybe 2 invasions if I was lucky.
>tfw you keep calling him Mirror Knight and forgetting his name is actually Looking Glass Knight
On that subject, I've never had that much fun with such a disappointingly easy fight before.
>>128047989
That's why I said the idea was nice. The implementation was awful. The loading time was sometimes enough to get either you or the Mirror Knight killed before you were even in control of you character, not to mention that it's actually really hard to get summoned.
>>128048526
I had no idea those were actual summons. Thought he just spawned NPC black phantoms.
>>128047973
>implying we need "le spooby corpse jumpscares in DaS"
please fucking no
>>128047989
Yeah it was dumb, it was restriced to NG+ in vanilla, you couldn't really judge SM for it because the orange outlines for it were the same ones as the final boss and he sometimes wouldn't summon at all, sometimes you would be summoned when he had 10% health left and so on
But as an idea it was far better than having the boss be replaced entirely by a player because you can still maintain some level of control over how the fight will go
>go to arena
>everyone uses dark weapon
Dead Game, no fun allowed
>>128048764
You get a special message if its a player summon, he has like 2 NPCs he can summon for the fight as well

Someone post qt girl
Then someone say pls be in london
But since this is video game
He said londo instead as in new londo
Why didn't anyone tell me gravelording was this fun
>>128052931
Whenever an attractive person was posted a guy on /fit/ would constantly say "please be in londo/pls be london" which eventually other people started picking up as a joke and just typing out L O N D O N when an attractive person is posted.
The joke is that it's L O N D O instead of Londo because Anor Londo in Dark Souls.

It's not as fun as it could be for me because you never actually get to see the results of your gravelording. If you could be an invisible phantom that can't interact with anything watching your black phantoms fucking up the host it'd be more fun.

For me it's amusing enough just seeing the random interactions between blues and reds

>Dark Souls 2 big fancy opening cutscene is about you and how bad it is being undead rather then world of drangleic and the old ones
well that's kind of lame. I didn't realize a boss I was fighting was one of those important old ones until I'd already killed it and gotten an achievement and special message for doing so.

doesn’t pinwheel give you like 15k? that’s not a lot by any stretch. besides, you can always homeward out. and falling from the ledges on the right places lets you skip almost every enemy. it’s not unfair if the game provides you the tools and you don’t use them
DaS2, what the fuck is up with this half health undead shit with human effigys. So tired of not having anymore human form and just running around half naked half health
>>128056373
I think he gives you 20k, which is a pretty fair amount depending on when you fight him.
But yeah, just bone out. Pretty sure he drops a bone.
>>128056967
1) Stop dying
2) Get the Ring of Binding from in front of Ornstein's fight, it limits your max health while hollowed to 75% HP instead of 50%.
>>128056967
DaS2 has problems.
Find the ring of binding in the tower of flame. It's essential for new folks.

I am in my third playthrough
just reached undead parish bonfire
in my 2 previous playthroughs I never got a balder side sword, is it a hard to farm rare weapon?
I just want a dexterity weapon that I can use normal +15 against bosses without buffs. I intend to get 40 dexterity.
Any recommendation?
>>128058496
Er, not back stick, but back button
>>128058274
Gough says that the residents of Oolacile were "seduced by a toothy serpent"
>>128057075
no its in the chest at the front of the first dragonrider fight in heide tower
>>128058507
Its not really hard, just get some soft Humanity and kill all the Balder Knights. I'm running a Knight with the Balder Side Sword and its alright, at 23 DEX and +10 its feeling underpowered for Sen's Fortress
>>128058867
right, there is only one of those...
>>128059067
Yeah, one who lives in the fucking abyss and created the darkwraiths from basically the same concept as what made oolacile go to hell, i.e. telling people to feed off humanities.
>>128059067
To be fair, Kaathe is the one responsible for New Londo and the Four Kings, and even partly for Artorias, though Manus obviously helped. It's a pretty good assumption to just blame him
>>128058867
It's not Kaathe's fault people didn't know what they were doing, he just provides the tools. What's wrong with giving kids explosives and knives?
>>128059234
>>128059226
Better than being the gods' bitch and keeping the Age of Fire going.
>>128059626
Sure, but the fall of Artorias is just sad
didnt the people of Oolacile torture Manus?
I remember the giant saying they drove him insane, whatever it means.
I am new to Dark Souls, and I was disappointed to see that both Manus and Artorias were not human when I played the dlc last week.
I expected Artorias to be a human knight, and Manus to be a human since he was the first human, not a giant monster.
>>128059226
where exactly do you think frampt was chilling before you rang the bells?
>>128059234
the way i see it, all the serpents are beasts of the abyss, trying to deceive players I MEAN CHOSEN UNDEADS to do stuff. they might have some agenda or doing it for the fuck of it. if the caduceus shields are any hint, they might actually be parts of the same beingeingyi is the mastermind, call vaati
>>128059935
Manus became the father of the abyss, so it makes sense that he was transformed into some kind of monster, don't you think.
>>128059935
There's plenty of mostly humanoid knight bosses in Dark Souls 2
>>128059935
Manus was driven insane and then went the way of the abyss, you can thank a serpent for helping out. Artorias tried to be a hero and went alone (with Sif, but the dude was a pup) to fight Manus and got his arm broken, ate some corruption and then got pushed over the edge to become a mess, you can thank a certain serpent for helping. Sif only escaped to become the big boss he became because you traveled back in time to rescue him from the abyss.
New Londo's Four Kings went the way of the abyss and the Darkwraiths popped up all over the place, so some nerds decided the best way to contain them was to flood it. In exchange the nerds killed the entire population and they became vengeful spirits. You can blame Kaathe entirely for this.
Manus being defeated after rising to the title of Father of the Abyss let his abyss powers manifest shitty fights in Dark Souls 2. I totally blame him for the shitty final boss of the vanilla game

>>128060624
just parry it
>>128060516
You sure there was an abyss before Manus? I always thought Manus was the one who started all the abyss shit, just like the Witch of Izalith gave birth to the chaos.
>>128060516
manus’ insanity is related to the loss of his pendant, for which seath is at least partially responsible. but i’ve said it before, you’re reading into things too much. you can find lots of contradictory stuff in ds
>>128060947
You have chosen... poorly. The time of gods is over its the Age of Humanity! I'm hoping that DaS3 is about the Age of Humanity
>>128061101
The serpents existed before him, and they're meant to live inside the abyss. So yeah, it existed, he was just the first to actually use it and only after he went insane.
>>128061318
It's easier to claim Seathe's golem picked up the pendant rather than blaming him entirely for Manus's madness. Kalameet attacked Oolacile long before Seathe did anything. Seathe just wants all the magic, which is why his shitty butterfly went on an adventure and killed a blacksmith for no reason
>>128061318
Didn't chester take the other half of the pendant?
>>128061568
golems are generally mindless tools, inorganic matter given life. it seems weird that one would at random pick up something of such importance and another would randomly capture dusk. as for the blacksmith, you’d best ignore him. andre’s storyline was fucking butchered
>>128061604
not explicitly stated, i believe, but it’s pretty certain that he has personal experience on shadowy limbs snatching you through time
>>128061568
But Manus was the one to invent the spreading abyss, right? The abyss in Oolacile looked different than the one in New Londo, which was basically just nothingness, while Manus spread his shit everywhere, infecting everything.
>>128062675
Nah, I'm saying Seathe ordered his golems, yes. But that he shouldn't bear responsibility for Manus

>>128045425
WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THOSE ARMS
SHE'S A GODDAMN STICK
>>128062675
It's incredibly likely that Seathe's golems were in Darkroot as they had been ordered to scavenge anything interesting they could find, as anything out of place would probably be related to Oolacile, and Seathe probably wanted to study the magic of Oolacile.
The golems would have randomly picked up all sorts of shit, including Seathe and the pendant.
And seeing as it's the CU possessing half of the pendant which draws Manus' attention to him, Chester probably has the other half.
