Why did they ruin Miracles so bad? They cost a ton of FP, they barely do any damage or healing, and the buffs don't stack with weapon skill buffs like Sharpen or Warcry

I'm ditching my STR/FAI build to go pure STR with Yhorm's Memechete. I might drop a couple points in FAI to get Deep Protection but that's it.

Miracles are literally trash tier outside of a couple self-buffs.

Idk about your list but IMO bloodborne was easily the hardest.

Getting hit once can lead to death, and the boss variety was hard as fuck, but balanced. The openings were there but if you didnt take advantage of them or messed them up you just lost.

Pontiff was hard too, but Nameless I felt was actually a balanced boss.

All his moves are super telegraphed, and only one set of moves in phase two actually switch up timing on his hits. He wasn't ridiculously aggressive and had easy to take advantage of moves.

man, i think true, non-phantom hodrick is the only npc i've seen that approaches (or perhaps even exceeds) cainhurst crow-levels of input reading. what an absolute dirty cocksucker; if he has his shield out, you can't go in to attack, because there's a good chance he'll just parry your first attack. you can't kick his shield away when he blocks, because he instantly retreats backwards once you input the kick. you can't hit him when he's in stance, because he'll trigger his stanced R2 so that its hyper armor is in effect while your hit lands, so you make a very unfavorable trade.

The spin2win on Warden Twinblade will actually proc most bleed in 2 spins, 1 with bleed resin. It easily does more DPS on players and bosses. In fact, grab a simple broken straightsword to use as a FP recharger and you can spin all day every day.

Just got the dancer's enchanted swords, upgraded them to +2 but they do ZERO fucking damage.
Is the split elemental damage that shitty ?
Got 12 str, 20 dex, 30int and 30 faith atm.

Is there a build able to make those blades work? I really like the moveset.

Personally for me it was

Demon's Souls: Old King Allant
Dark Souls: Gwyn
Dark Souls 2: Vendrick, mainly because I only had 3 giant souls when I got the kill.
Bloodborne: Laurence
Dark Souls 3: Haven't finished it yet, one shotted all the bosses I've encountered.

Doesn't matter what a good str/fth weapon is, either you're PvEing and your weapon choice doesn't matter at all aside from how much poise damage it does/how comfortable you are with it or you're PvPing and you're using one of less than a handful of the viable PvP weapons regardless of what your build looks like

>>138829583
Definitely him or Laurence. I died more on Fume Knight, but I wasn't truly good and I was severely underleveled.

>>138829656
Just use them if it makes you happy senpai, who gives a shit if they're good or not

If it's like DS2, you can buff the split damage with their respective Clutch rings and then put on flynn's if you have low enough equip load+sacred oath, basically any weapon was good with that combo

I exclusively used the Drakeblood Sword

If it emulates a separate controller to make your Dual Shock work, you might have a problem. I think Dark Souls 3 only recognizes one gamepad at a time. I had to unplug all of my gamepads except for my main one to get the game to take inputs from it.

It's a big weapon. It won't just cut you, it will displace you. Huge weapons like that shouldn't just stun, it should send enemies reeling back with every swing.

Meanwhile Dancer ate me for dinner for a solid 15+ tries.

It probably had something to do with how cluttered her boss room is, I was going between 10 fps and 60 depending on where I was looking.

Also pontiff and legion are easy af if you use a shield with decent stability, doesn't even need to be a greatshield. Dancer meanwhile will beat break your guard and/or grab you through it.

They had it right in Demon's Souls. UGS were slow and unwieldy but did huge damage. I don't know what the fuck happened over in FromSoft. Maybe it was just a fluke.

And they should have KEPT DOING THAT. It really made it seem strong. Strength for me isn't about high numbers, it's about the feeling. Landing a Hornet Ring Riposte with the Demon Greataxe will win you a fight, but what happens in the animation is what I do it for.

That's strange. I'm playing on xbone and I have no lag at all. I've seen one framerate drop in the nopespider sewers and in Izzalyth. Not in the woods especially duing pvp.

What I've experienced is connection latency. So phantom hits, characters standing still while moving (no animations, but that's server lag, at launch, not video lag.

This is why they call it the BLACKed crystal. Use it if an emergency like this ever happens.

I really wish theyd let you recustomize your guy somehow

hell it could be like Dragon's Dogma where on NG there is a one time only recustomize item you can buy, and then the permanent one unlocks on NG+

More news at 11. I think only wide UGS swipes aren't parryable.

>People are speculating Aldrich is the Chosen Undead and shit

People only think this because he ate Gwyndolin and debateably Nito. However Aldrich already linked the fire before eating Gwyndolin.

>was that The Nameless King is Yhorm's friend who has the other Storm Ruler

That's Siegward
