those monsters are without a doubt the creepiest enemies in the game, even if they are piss easy.
>>146133635
I dont think they'll be doing any reworking, if youre still hoping for poise Im doubtful that will happen either. Also japanese crowd likes no poise, they also like gank squads
reminder poise is working as intended and increases active hyper armor frames on attacks with hyper armor so get good

>>146133918
any good gank squad has at least 1 caster
>>146133102
>they might be experienced
Didn't ever say that, in fact, again, twinks in 1 have gigantic benefits due to them dealing and recieving a amounts of damage the invaded person could never hope to. You didn't even need to be so skilled for that since you can rush a slab and chunks in a few hours. Against such invade you need to land dozens of hits knowing a single one spells death and that he likely can heal much more than you can, pretty much the same issue presented by ganks in 3.
Also
>typing...like...this
>>146132856
The point is, the very same people who abused 1's weak matchmaking system whine about 3's, when in the end the impact is the same, only the PvP is heavily favoured to the other side, if they do engage asshole techniques like ganks, just like 1 had plenty assholish ways to invade and that the host couldn't do shit about. 3's matchmaking true issue lies into the host recently discovered invasion immunity, if that is any true, then the system would be almost flawless should From remove it.
>>146133961

>>146133635
Honestly anon I think they just need to do some numbers adjusting to make pvp more lively. The lack of incentives for pure STR/DEX builds compared to quality and how Magic either has lol 1000k+ damage or absolute shit along with some weapons completely outclassing others in their class are the main issues imo currently, and all those take are some simple adjustments to make things on a more level playing field to make things more varied. Now will that actually happen in a satisfying way? Probably not.
>>146133896
I actually like how that works because to me Poise should always benefit heavier weapons, the problem is it's just underpowered right now which is why people don't even notices its effects. Increasing it so that around 20-30 poise did things like make the hyperarmor delay between two Great Weapon swings barely there at all would be terrific.

>>146134719
I sure hope they address the lack of content regarding the Profaned Capital with a DLC or something. It was bad enough they turned Yhorm into a gimmick fight instead of just giving him more HP.

She's actually just luring undead to Drangleic so they claim the throne (link the fire). Probably in league with Frampt or something.DaS2 is pretty much non-canon anyway, as much as i hate to admit.
I now know why 2 looks so weird. It looks like Bloodstained did before they added the shaders. Everything is oddly flat. Nothing looks right. 2 was clearly made for next gen platforms and then scaled back for current. So they removed all the shaders and did whatever they could with it. It is a visual mess. Something just looks so off about it.
It's a testament that the game is a step down from the original.

I won't hear any other reason for the Capital besides "time budget".At least it's still better than lots of DS2 and Izalith.
>>146134367
These combos were around in DaS, not really much of a discovery.
>>146134138
Just started playing DaS2 and I'm looking for a bit of info
Coming from DaS the hud (especially hp/stamina) seem really small, are there any decent mods to change it?
Are human effigies just humanity? It says something like it prevents you from being invaded so does that mean when you're hollow you're going to get invaded many times instead of the other way around?
Thanks
>>146135739
Perhaps they didn't work in previous patches? I certainly didn't know about it until a few days ago.
>>146135729
I seriously fucking hope they expand massively on the Capital in the DLC, because talk about a letdown. "Profaned Capital", more like "Profaned quarter of a city block"
>>146129878
But I am playing DS2 softs on PS4 senpai
and bloodborne is the best souls game in my opinion
>>146135772
You ever notice how you have the option to burn an Effigy at a bonfire? That is what prevents invasions, only in the area you burnt the Effigy, and only for 30 minutes.
>>146135826
It's possible, I guess. The last patch did change casting speeds, but I've no clue if they were possible prior to that.
>>146135839
>in my opinion
fuck off Andrew
>yhorm 1-shots at +30
welp
>>146135876
Also it's automatically applied to any area where you kill the boss. The 30 minutes only counts down when you're in the affected area, and can be disabled at any time via an option at the bonfire.
Without this effect, you can host invasions in areas where the boss is already dead, unrestricted.
>>146135954
Still, I didn't even know that it was possible in DaS1 until you posted. It's impressive how DaS1 still hides secrets from me. Thanks
>>146132989

>>146135954
The recent patch upped the casting speed on Black Flame, making a Chaos Orb into Black Flame possible, which stunlocks the enemy into taking the lava damage if the GCFO was aimed right.
This was not possible before the patch, and is not possible with great combustion.
Pyromancers are literally capable of doing 1200+ damage with GCFO+Black Flame because of this.
Combine this w/ a Chaos Estoc in the left hand and you can chain a left-handed Estoc L1 into the combo at the end.
>>146136232
Did you check the op?
>>146136262
>sped up black flame but not great combustion
>black flame already did more damage anyways
Hilarious.
>>146136262
To add on to my original post, this change literally made Pyro the best in the game.
It's a good thing you can't be a shitter to freeaim GCFO consistently, otherwise this would be FUBAR.
>>146136404
Yeah. Not many in there
>>146136410
>>146136262
You can also true combo black flame into combustion. Truly a great time to be a Pyro.Now should I level mine to 120 is the big question. Wiki seems to have a plentiful invasion pool.
>>146136172
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhUKI2--6V8
The only issue with it is that you would never hit anyone remotely decent with pyromancy, and DWGR Black Knight Shield and toggling hard countered it.
>>146136262
Ah, alright then. Strange that they only buffed Black Flame though.
Alright, how do I git gud in PvP?
PvE is trivial by now, but that's pretty much just rote memorisation of patterns. When it comes to PvP, I just tend to fall apart. My reaction times suck because I'm oldand I've got brain disease issues, but even against obvious R1 spammers and other shitters I can clearly see and recognise for what they are, see their patterns and so on... I'll still lose more than I win.
What do, /dsg/? Is PvP just not for me? I bloody love this series to bits, and the thought that I just can't grasp such a big part of it eats at me.
>>146136649
Try coloring books or puzzles or maybe bingo.

Would a marathon event be viable at some point?

-Fashions and weapons of choice
-Do whatever it takes to get to the finish line
-No rolling
-Host runs behind the pack to keep tab on shenanigans
-Seeded/Unseeded world

>Blood starved beast

It's a fun boss fight except for the fact that the entire game just blends into one monotonous shade of black. It feels like I'm playing doom 3 and it makes it annoyingly difficult to see which kind of attack he's doing, or if it's even an attack not just his idle pose or a sidestep.

Those of you not willing to embrace gank fighting should go back to freeform roleplay forums. You were not meant to invade, sissy boy.
>>146134138
I hate that I don't have poise and every enemy in the game does.
What's a good weapon for a pure caster? Sometimes I'd invade a really competent host that survives all my spells, and when I resort to melee my fire uchi is pretty weak, not to mention my stamina isn't too high.

Half way, I can crank it up but then it just blends into a shade of grey. The color palette is just non existent. I don't think I've seen a single shade of green or blue yet. And the only red I've seen is the blood vial effect.
I got him down to one hit away from dying that time. If I just stick next to him it looks like even the attacks I fail to dodge miss me half of the time because of his weird moveset.

The aesthetics are fundamentally different.
DaS2 is some kind of twisted Norman fantasyworld warped by an inhuman sorcerer-scientist and a malignant shard of all-consuming darkness.
DaS3 is some jumbled mishmash of late Byzantine and middle-english medieval with some old fashioned DnD and some snowy vatican thrown in for flavour. Most DaS2 fashion would look woefully out of place in the setting and environments of 3.

So did they do something in the patch with mimic demon death match in carthus? Baited the demon enough to actually kill the mimic,band the mimic would never fight back. He'd run a little ways and then just walk back and go to sleep

Got it during the sale because I'd never had a chance to play it before
I just beat the main game and am waiting a bit before I go after the DLC, I'm not sure if it's just because DS3 and BB up the speed but the main game of DS2 felt unnervingly easy, like every boss only had 3-4 slow attacks that let you do 25% of their health bar if you just dodge them, I never even bothered to learn the parry because it never felt necessary

>>146139117
I kind of like it
On one hand, upgrade materials are a precious and invaluable lategame resource and the fact that they can be bought means that souls remain valuable after you stop leveling, unlike the previous games.
At the same time, I think they're a little too scarce. It reminds me of Bloodborne where I feel discouraged from making new builds because I just can't be fucked to farm all the upgrade materials to make all the weapons that would keep that build interesting.
alright I'm playing ds2 after finishing das and gotta say not really enjoying at fucking all
feels more like a weird hack and slash where you take a lot of damage rather than actually being a difficult game, everything's a lot faster which is fine but weird ranges and hitboxes keep fucking me
I'll keep playing it for now I'm sure but will end up getting ds3 regardless- is 3 more like 1? because right now 2 feels so vastly different from des and das it's off puttingthis is just my opinion
>>146139416
It's fucking amazing, probably the best greatsword.
It's solid scaling dex-leaning quality with a godlike moveset.

Good rings for a dex character? I see some rings that are okay, but none really look like "oh wow I need that" the way that spell damage/cast speed make me feel for casters.

DaS1 didn't have a hard soft cap aside from 50. It was a gradual decline from 30 onwards. You also got better returns at higher values.
DaS1
>30 Vit = 1100 HP
>40 Vit = 1325 HP
>50 Vit = 1500 HP
DaS3
>27 Vig = 1000 HP
>39 Vig = 1200 HP
>50 Vig = 1300 HP

Check the difference between 20-30 vit and 30-40 in das1.
You got way more bang for your buck from like 19-27 vit after that it drops
Would you play a mage if you had spells that summoned skeletons, ghosts, and could raise dead bodies as minions?

not unless they do more damage at a better fp rate than great heavy soul spear

Problem solved. Although truly greirat was devastated by lorettas death and used thievery as a way to repay you, but also as a reckless way to find his own death.
Greirat would've wanted it this way

>implying alot of the scrubs on ps4 actually take the time to get NG++ rings
please most of them are still running around the forest with knights armor and a +2 longsword I know this because how many times I can 2 shot them with a buffed dragonslayer axe
To be fair hwoever, it may in fact happen but it doesn't happen as often as it does on pc simply because the time and effort to get them and most of the ps4 user base is too scrubby to care
>>146141092
No. If we had zoning spells I would play it.

who the FUCK cares about those stupid rings?
oh man I'm missing out on 2% more health that sure triggers my fucking autism
you're playing a game where EVERYBODY has different stats, if you really care that goddamned much that your stats are infinitesimally lower than they could be, you need to get a fucking life.

I'd rather have constructs desu

>A spell that lays down a hidden glyph that snares and makes the target immobile.Fool's Idol
>A large void that pulls targets towards it and reduces I-frames for everyone near it.
>A construct that mimics every spell you cast
The possibilities are endless
>>146141513
The rings may not make a difference to someone with <30 vig but when you want to twink and stay below the curve you want to have them to give you the edge because that 2% more health as you say, can make or break a fight in a gank squad which you will run inot a bunch when you twink
Calm your autism and take your meds
>>146138232

>>146141915
Are you dumb? Twinks not going to get anywhere near the same befits as a high level character from shit like life ring +3
>literal months after game came out
>STILL no full rips of artbook
has the Souls fanbase lost all passion for their game?
>>146141915
Uh, no. 2% is 2% whether you have 10 vigor or 40 vigor. That's the way percentages work.
It's not 2% "as I say". The normal fap ring gives 3% extra health. The +2 fap ring gives 5%. Same for stamina and equip load, 2% increase. The life ring gives you 7% extra health, +3 gives you 10%. 3% extra health.
The chances of that making a difference are miniscule. It would be a fucking fluke if it actually made a difference.
What level should I be to get summoned for the twin princes? I'm sl86 plus 9.

Then don't use the gimmick? I had fun killing him using a Knight Crossbow + Lightning Bolts and a Partizan. Pure-Faith all rings Lightning / Great Lightning Spear can do it even faster. By no means is the gimmick required, and it's more enjoyable to ignore the crutch.

We should all play the game at SL1 and never upgrade our weapons.

An old Soul Calibur 4 character starring a whole random character creator story I thought up in boredom, I called him Experiment 40 during that before I decided to give some of them real names, I had a friend named Ryan who had shaggy hair and just gave him that name up until I started playing DaS where I named him after another friend named Jason.

Your talking about a community, that in the first game, specifically chose their armor and weight class to counter specific combos and hits of specific weapons in terms of balancing poise and roll frames.
Yes Poise is gone, but the people are not.
>>146142989
It's a Vaati reference. We've come full circle.
>>146142774
yeah because I would rather kill myself than enter a fight with a +9 weapon against somebody with a +10 weapon.
it's not like people do that all the fucking time when they want to try out a weapon without wasting a slab.
if you're such a goddamn OCD faggot that you can't tolerate being at an incredibly meagre disadvantage, that's your own dumbass problem.
>>146142364
Are you stupid? A twink wanting to stay at 25 and wield the dragonslayer axe for maximum butthurt will not get 30 vig or even 27 without gundyrs cockring so in order to supplement it you use the life ring +3 and RoF+2 which will maximize your vig to almost about the same as the host as well as more than a regular phantom without the rings
Try twinking for once you dense cunt
Also take into consideration that the host isn't running around with +10 weapons so a +2 longsword isn't going to rip you at 1176 HP assuming the cockring is also on which it is quintessential for a twink build also

Iron is much more of a straightforward design. No zelda-y puzzles or panic runs through mazes full of invincible ghost knights, just straight a straight gauntlet of room with enemies to room with enemies, where the only focus is on making each enemy encounter a brick wall of shits each in a different way.
To its credit, the overwhelming majority of encounters are really well designed and have clever little environmental cues that allow you to take the fight apart indirectly. It's still not as cool as sunken, though.
>>146143417
Katanas aren't *the best* they're just pretty alright as it is
The retarded recovery or lack thereof they had on attacks was nerfed in 3
>>146143417
Katanas are worse than straight swords in every aspect but the running attack.
Washing pole has the best running attack.

In Ds1 you could counter anything in a million ways or you could just be straight up better than the other player

What if you could summonsuccubiwhich take the opposite gender of your character.Its only attack is a grab, it does no damage, but locks the target into an animation which gets progressively lewder and lewder, this animation doesn't end until either the succubus or player is attacked.I should be an idea guy.

The only people to invade at that low of level are not dangerous. There are no real "gankers" there. If you need every possible advantage to fight a basic 2v1 against shitters in early game gear, you deserve to slog through 3 playthroughs.

I could link all the youtube twitch shit of japs and other gankers that do it but I'm not going to just look them up yourself. Have you never twinked before? I mean just roll a character real quick and try it you find all sorts of gankers in the forest and in high wall some even ganking hard enough they walk around with ornstein and gundyr armor just itching to kill other twinks
I mean you're baiting right? Is this Lucifer? am I being rused?
