>>318304970
It doesn't scale well with any stat and has inferior damage and a slow moveset. You can only get it after you beat the game once, and by that point it REALLY struggles to keep up with NG enemies.

I just use my threaded cane for everything. It's fast, has reach, has a versitile moveset, and scales well with DEX.

Everything that isn't the Ludwig's is shit. That's why 90% of the people who play this game use it.
>>
>>318306702
Great!

Why.

>>318306590
Saw Spear is still pretty much the best weapon in the game.

I've been having a ton of fun with the Beast Cutter though.

Hunter's Axe and Beasthunter Saif
>>
>>318306016
>It doesn't scale well with any stat and has inferior damage and a slow moveset.
It's problem isn't scaling, it's that because it has split damage you can't buff it.

> You can only get it after you beat the game once, and by that point it REALLY struggles to keep up with NG enemies.
That's not really a problem if you get enough upgrade materials beforehand

>>318306016
The strength of the Burial Blade is not in scaling. None of the weapons really have effective, crazy scaling besides the Chikage. All of it is frontloaded in gems.

The strength of the BB is in its moveset, which is very versatile, has moderate reach and speed untricked and long reach and still moderate speed tricked. The tricked form has the highest rally in the game surpassing the hunter axe (might be a DLC weapon with better rally though), wide sweeping slashes with crowd control and the charged R2 has insane reach, wide arc and knockdown.

>>318306590
Loving the Beasthunter Saif. The tricked R1 has an insane forward lunge and it has low stamina consumption overall. Untricked the weapon swings slightly slowly than your average sword in horizontal arcs and it gains a damage bonus. It unfortunately doesn't have the beast bonus that saw weapons get.

My str character has been using the shit out of the pizza cutter saw. Untricked the mace has a good, normal speed moveset, the running R1 has a nice long range poke. Tricked the weapon just gains tons of strength, stagger power and lunging reach.
>>
>>318306921
Never ever.
>>
What's best new skill weapon? I've upgraded the Saif like a retard without thinking of saving stones for better equipment
>>
>>318306301
I really like it. I managed to beat the whole DLC with it. It's scythe moveset is slow in exchange for more reach and also has a great charge move. The curved sword moveset is fast enough and good for singular targets. Everything struggles to keep up with NG enemies with no upgrades. I don't have an opinion on the scaling since I never bothered to check it because scaling feels less useful than it was in souls games, especially with the addition of blood gems. There should have been way to get it without beating the game.
>>
>>318307115
Pizza cutter is so unbelievably broken in PvE that it lost it's charm on me fast. Amy's Arm has been really fun though for my STR build.

>Shittier

That transformed Saw Cleaver has a shit moveset and isn't serrated.
>>
>>318307386
Different move set in its extended form.

A matter of preference.
>>
>>318307184
The pick is apparently good but I have not tried/upgraded it yet. It's next on my list. Not a fan of the Rakuyo but it has it's charm. Generally I like dualwielding but it underperforms too much for me.
>>
>>318306843
Not that guy but I use it and there's a lot of positives. The one handed mode does reliable damage, is decently fast, has a wide swing radius, and looks cool. The scyth mode knocks down nearly any non boss enemy and some bosses as well, it has a varied moveset, the longest range of any weapon, and it staggers well. The range factor is really what does it for me, I can get the charge backs tabs from a mile away. It's made difficult parts of the chalices trivial. The L2s are underrated too. The only thing I really dislike about it is that you can't use the paper on it.
>>
>>318307386
Retains the beast bonus in both forms, tricked form has horizontal slashes instead of vertical.

Their scaling difference is miniscule (one better with skl, the other better with str), their speed is identical. The saw spear also has very strong L1 attacks that can be reasonably chained.
>>
>>318307540
I was really disappointed in the Rakuyo. Such a pain to get it and its Dual wielding form isn't even faster.
>>
>>318307197
So it has a long range, and that's good and all, but the threaded cane ALSO has long range, is faster, and scales better.
>>
So we all agree Rakuyo, Boom Hammer and Saif are the worst DLC weapons right?
>>
>>318307274
Why is that?
>>
>>318307953
Cane's R2s don't send fatasses flying
>>
>>318308012
What makes the saif bad? And there is nothing worse than the kos parasite
>>
>>318308012
Why? Boom Hammer is annoying because you have to recharge after each attack, but it's still a nice hammer.

Can't really say anything about the others since i haven't tried them yet.
>>
>>318307540
the pizza cutter is stupidly overpowered, you can stunlock many enemies with the L2 and just cut through crowds.
>>
>>318308197
>What makes the saif bad?

Boring move set. Is just another cleaver.
>>
>>318307540
The Pick looks like what the scythe should have been. None of that arcane scaling non-sense with all the versatility.
>>
>>318307953
Burial blade has slightly better base damage. Other then that it is mostly down to moveset preferences.
>>
>>318308298
But isn't it a STR weapon? I also did not get to try THAT yet. The DLC wasn't exactly motivating once I got through. The bug with the disappearing gems does not help either.

Fine by me.
>>
>>318307953
>long range
This is true.

>attacks faster
This is null, as the whip swings slower than the cane. It pretty much matches the scythe.

>scales better
This is also true, BUT IT HAS LESS BASE DAMAGE. The improved scaling is there to make up for that, and it doesn't make up for it in spades. Once again, gems will easily decide damage.

The whip does not have charged R2 with a knockdown, nor does it gain a damage bonus like the scythe (the whip does gain the serrated bonus though). The cane also does have a great poke R2.
>>
>>318308298
The mace form is also stupidly fast.

Wait what?

Has there be a new way to farm blood chunks in the DLC? Gargoyle farming is tedious.

Is the DLC worth buying at all? is that ludwig holy blade still OP as fuck? or does a DLC weapon beat it?

I don't do PvP stuff so idc about that. I played the first 2 weeks, did everything, got plat, and never played again. Game was fun but short as fuck
>>
>>318308542
The gems dropped by the spearwielding fishermen do not show up in your inventory when picked up. the general mentioned fools/poormans gems but today I had some different radial ones that did not show up. The ones dropped by the lightning rod guys are fine.

Haven't looked up anything about the DLC yet, are there any new blood tinge weapons?
>>
>>318308742
For someone who doesn't care about PvP why do you care so much about whether a DLC weapon outclasses Ludwig's?

Either way I think the DLC is worth it but mainly because it adds a lot of content that increases replayability (more weapons to try out, etc). If you're just going to play it once I think it's probably more worth $15 than $20
>>
>>318309003
Gattling gun.

maybe some more but thats the only i remember.
>>
>>318309003
Yes, there are two pretty neat ones for builds with str and dex as your alternate stat.

Also the gattling gun.
>>
>>318308309
True enough, though I do really like its slight variations.

The untricked saif hits harder but slower. Tricked the saif gains that ridiculous forward lunge and it swings really, really fast at the cost of range. The transform attacks have a neat forward/backward dash.

>>318308742
Absolutely, if you enjoy the challenge of BB. The DLC easily maintains the high level of quality that the Souls DLC had.

>>318308380
I ran out of blood stones, but the pick really does seem like a faster burial blade without the sweeping knockdown. What impressed me is that tricked, the weapon seems to hardly lose any speed at all despite gaining reach.
>>
>>318309072
>why do you care so much about whether a DLC weapon outclasses Ludwig's?
I meant it was OP in PvE, anon. The moveset and attack was fucking amazing, at least back when I played the game the first 2 weeks. Idk if the weapon was nerfed later.

I was mainly asking because I'm hoping there's a better weapon in the DLC or else I'm stuck using that same weapon again which is kinda lame
>>
>>318308608

If you're going to farm chunks in the base game, do it in the upper cathedral ward. Kill the 3 wolves inside the giant dark room, they drop blood chunks at a decent rate.
>>

Lots of LHB users are migrating to the Moonlight Blade it seems. It has a great moveset, and sort of the real "Holy blade" lore-wise.
>>
>>318309197

>>318309528
>>318309579
I see. I guess for a regular STR build which is common for my first character/run I picked up Ludwig's and had no reason to use anything else at all, it was just really strong. So was hoping to switch to something else for the DLC
>>
>>318309728
There are two really good strength weapons in the first section of the DLC. You can even get to them without beating the first boss so technically you could get them right after amelia and then play through the second half of the game with them, before you're really strong enough to do DLC content

Someone hasn't fought Amygdala, Ebrietias, or Bloodletting Beast with the saw cleaver.

Saw cleaver's transformed r1 is godly for its huge vertical range. Hits heads and Amy's arms with ease.
>>
>>318308454
Alright you've proven your point.

On a side note though, the whips back step follow-ups are fucking cool.
>>
>>318309728


Idk if you've tried it, but since you mentioned using it on a strength build, one of the main reasons for the LHB being so popular is the good scaling of arcane with it. Slap a fire/bolt gem on it and it kicks so much ass. But as I've said you should try out the Moonlight Blade, weapon looks cool and imo has definitely top 3 best moveset in the game.
>>
>>318310783
That's a good point, but it's shit for everything else, too slow.

>>318310825

I have started playing this game this week and I'm really enjoying it, but honestly I just can't let go of the Axe I got in the begging. That weapon is so fucking good.

And I'm amking a point of trying to get most of the weapons and trying them out. The last one I got was Ludwig's sword for 20 grand, and I still prefer me trusty axe.
>>
So what was up with that thing in the DLC trailer where the guy leaps up and slashes apart an enemy? can you actually go beast mode and shit now? wasn't there some red gem thing you get at the end of the last chalice that no one ever knew what it was for? do we know what it's for now?

Like all other souls games for PvE any +10 weapon will be more than sufficient for the game. Also you shouldn't have to lock yourself into stats because there are other STR scaling weapons so as long as you don't over-invest past the hard cap you should be fine.

25/50 str/skl and it has excellent damage

it's D/B after all

the small amount of arc damage is just to prevent you from using resins on it because its so good

if anything, the church pick is better though
>>
>>318312846
Whenever you get a weapon to +9
>>
>>318312384

It changes the roll, just like Beast form.
The roll is slow as fuck but you take 20% less damage emerging from invul instead of 40% more.
>>
>>318312846
Endgame imo. When you're done/starting with Nightmare of mensis
>>
>>318312846
It's balanced to be harder than the final zone of the game. For optimal enjoyment I'd go in around level 75 to 80, and a +9 weapon is highly recommended (but DLC gives you enough chunks to upgrade one in the first area anyway).

You can go in early and rush to some items (Beast Cutter, Boom Hammer, Saif and Pizza Cutter can all be easily grabbed, Minigun, Amy Arm and Bow are a bit harder to reach, but still in first area).

Unless you have good gems and are very good at the game, beating the first boss at low level will be impossible.
>>
>>318312846
I'm just starting doing it post-rom and it's very do-able. Just make sure you get all the blood chunks from yar-ghul's to get your weapon to +8 or +9, and try and get the blood gem that's there too
>>

how are you gonna get a used copy of the DLC?
>>
What level are people stopping at? I'm not interested in a PVP meta level, just a good level to stop at to not become an OP master of everything. 100 feels good to me.
>>
>>318316473
Right now I'm at 80. I'm just playing through the Chalice Dungeons.

Once I get to NG+ I may level up to around 90-95.
>>
>>318316473
I am over 120 and the DLC enemies are still doing a ton of damage to me. I am also on NG+
>>
>>318316473
For normal NG I usually stop around 70-80.
NG+ and beyond I usually just keep leveling.
I have a NG++ character at 135ish and a NG+3 character at 140.
>>
>>318316473
43, 80, 98, 110, 116, 120

pick any you like, these are the best for co-op and pvp
>>
>>318316951
>I am also on NG+
Found your problem
>>
How do I even get the new weapons?`Play through the entire DLC content?
>>
>>318317847
>Play through the entire DLC content?
yes
>>
>>318316473
If you don't care about online play then it doesn't matter.

I have a lvl 285 char on new game 6 who still gets one shotted all the time. Game always scales
>>
>>318317847
they're found throughout the DLC yes

Can we talk about how disappointing it is Marias weapon is some gay twinblade and not the thing on the cover? It looks like it was originally going to be this brutal steel rod that tricked into a rapier. It looks so much cooler and it would actually make perfect sense lore wise:

>brutally bash the beasts, break their bones removing their mobility
>trick into a rapier and puncture their vital organs

Is there a better boss theme in the entire souls series?

>>318316473
I'm going after the /bbg/ meta, 98. Not really because I like to do PvP but it just feels like a good number to stop and to have a good amount of stats.
>>
>>318315690
First time. Those snatchers aren't fucking around.
>>
>>318304738
it's a bad weapon because the traditionally strong scythe moves are all removed in this game. There is no fast horizontal slash that has frontal reach as a first hit. You need to combo which is very bad with this weapon because it's slow and consumes a lot of stamina. the running R1 is also bad.

damage is not that big of a deal.
>>
>>318318064
I don't think so. Ludwig really was the maximum hype level with his second phase with cutscene, moonlight sword AND this second part of his theme. Even before the DLC came out I loved it when it played in the trailer.
>>
>>318310783

>not using the spike driver with beast pellets and a charged up r2 on eberitas r2

>>318318064
this isn't a souls game

>>318318492
Technically you're underleveled the first time you get there. There are a few things you can pick up by yoloing to them. Among them a rune you can't use unless you go to Hemwick to get the rune tool, which is less dangerous than Yahar'gul.
>>
>>318318492
First time Yahar'gul you're dealing shit damage regardless of your build because it's designed that way because you got kidnapped. Most of the time it's still manageable, but if it's too tedious then just run and grab everything you want and then go to the lamp
>>
>>318319054
First time I got taken to Yahar'gul I couldn't find the lamp and thought I had to fight Paarl to escape. I died like 4x and ran out of vials before I decided to explore more and found the lamp.

Any good str weapons in the DLC?
>>
>>318320801
only the best weapon in the game
>>
>>318320801
A lot of people like the Whirligig Saw.

Gets an S in Strength at +10.
>>
>>318306016
It isn't meant to be a quality build weapon. It's a weapon with a very versatile moveset with split damage that can be enhanced by the right gems. And since you get it after the "final" boss, its something to use for ng+ situations where youre at a level that has every stat over 30 and probably several over 40.
>>
>>318320801
Pizza cutter is OP as fuck
>>
>>318308425
It is but it has b scaling in arcane. And that's because the L2 for the whirligig does arcane damage
>>
>>318306590
pizza cutter
>>
>>318312235
If you say so fag but I doubt it
>>
>>318321542
Is it the best for PvE?
>>
>>318321131
>>318321542
>>318321954
Is it stronger than ludwig's holy blade with bolt/fire paper on?
>>
>>318322559
very good at the very least
you can stunlock most enemies and some bosses by holding down L2
>>
The best weapon are the ones you like, upgraded with proper gems.
>>
>>318322571
it's about equal but Pizza Cutter has better stagger than Ludwig and hits quicker making it better overall
but ludwig regular sword is a better skill weapon than pizza cutter un tricked

Gwyn will always be top for me.
And best BB's theme are Gehrman, Maria and the theme for Darkbeasts

Is arcane and bloodtinge useless in this game?

I'm at 30/30/30 vit/end/str and I want to figure out what I should level up next. Should I just do skill and go for a quality build?

I don't really prefer any weapon over another and the chikage is not interesting to me. Unless there are weapons (amygdala arm) that have high magic requirements I think a quality build might be the best. Also, I'm in Mergo's lower loft right now, not having the easiest time of it. (fuck nightmare frontier). How much further do I have before the end?

Should I complete the dlc before beating the final boss?
>>
>>318322919
This game is really fucking pretty.

>>318323626
Not useless, but secondary to your main combat stat definitely. If you like the Chikage then Bloodtinge is going to get you a lot of damage out of that, and it also increases your bullet damage. You're very close to the end of the game.
>>
>>318323626
Arcane is fantastic, providing you gather some gems at chalice. Youre main weapon are saw blade, ludwig, Rakuyo and execution gloves.
>>
>>318323626
>Is arcane and bloodtinge useless in this game?
Personally i haven't used bloodtinge that much so i can't comment on it, but arcane is usefull for certain builds, like when you use tonitrus or blades of mercy that has some arcane scaling.

>I'm at 30/30/30 vit/end/str and I want to figure out what I should level up next. Should I just do skill and go for a quality build?
I think that is best since you don´t favour any weapon really.


>How much further do I have before the end?
You are pretty close to the end.

>Should I complete the dlc before beating the final boss?
Yes, NG+ i find a bit harder than NG version of the DLC.

The game automatically puts you into the start of NG+ once you beat the final boss

There's two bosses in Mergo's loft, and then depending on how you go about it that's either the end, or there's 1/2 bosses left. You'll probably just get the one boss unless you looked up a guide on the secret ending, but it's pretty blatant when you've gotten to the 'main' final boss'.
>>
>>318321131
Do the saw moves hit multiple times?

Can you abuse arcane gems with it?
>>
>>318323626
You're actually almost at the end. Once you arrive at the dream and the workshop is burning, you'll know the point of no return.
I suggest you do the DLC now, also pick some weapons there and check which you like. If you're a fan of the moonlight sword, for instance, you'll likely want quality.
>>
>>318323626
bloodtinge is great if you use chikage + evelyn, the trick mode does awesome damage if you have high bloodtinge
>>
Dumbass question coming through: How do I start the Laurence fight?
>>
Have i locked myself out of Laurence if i died after raising the platform in the the research lab and then dying?

I can't seem to get back up there.
>>
>>318324234
There's a lawnmower type move with the saw that just constantly hit things as you walk around.
>>
>>318324343
nah you're good
>>
>>318324313
How far are you in the DLC?
>>
>>318304738

Burial Blade is amazing.
The charge attack knocks most things on their asses, inculding many bosses.
The charge also has a huge range and arc, which allows it to get back stabs all the time against enemies that have a ton of movement to their attacks (like BSB)
>>
>>318324715
chruch pick is better
>>
Man I really want to play the DLC, but I'm at like NG++++ so it'll probably be hard as fuck....and I don't want to restart. Dunno what to do.
>>
>>318325095
Just start a new character, if you know what you're doing you can access the DLC in less than 2 hours. Level 50 is good enough to start the dlc
>>
>>318325095
restart

Does it still have the same charge attack?

What's the best weapon for a reverse quality build (40 STR / 25 SKL)?
>>
>>318326135
Who's "him"?

Also, did you use the short version of the Beasthunter Saif for the majority of the damage.
>>
>>318325823
You have to beat vicar Amelia, then go back to oeden chapel go out the left door and go near the spiked fence where a clothing set use to be I forget which one.

There will be a big ayy lamo hanging off the chapel but if you low level you might not see him because you need insight but it will still work. Anyways he will feel his way along the fence with a hand, it will make a big glowing ball thing. Run into the ball and he will grab you and kill you.
You then wake up in the nightmare.
