Discuss the game, where you're at, whatever floats your boat.
How am I doing so far? What needs improvement?
reminder that the bosses you think are hard aren't hard
Where do I get the Hey! gesture?
>>334237051
Darker hair.
Why the fuck did they lock the red knight armor behind the final boss? What even? Guess Ill use it in NG+

Rebirth with rosaria
THANKS FROM
>>334237262
are you asking how you do it, or what it entails?
I'm not sure how you do it, but when you do it, it allows you to level everything again from the base level of your character, and put those levels into anything you want
So I just finished the game and Yuria never appeared for me, Yoel was dead like half the game.
What did I miss?
>>334237262
>>334237328
But be warned that joining that covenant ends an NPC's questline.
>>334237302
You're too late
REMINDER IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE ANYWHERE IN THIS GAME YOU ARE A GAY BABBY AND NEED TO GIT GUD XD I AM LE AMAZING PERSON WHO ONE-TRYS EVERYTHING
>>334237225
I think you need .75 STR to 2 hand
i.e. weapon says 16 you need 12 to 2hand
Fallen Knight Set is my favourite so far. Shit looks awesome.
Anyone find a place to get A sun Sword yet. That is my weaponfu
>>334237425
THIS fuck i beat this game using win10 voice commands
>tfw suddenly see aDarkwraithcharging at me full steam in the swampbut he turned out to be a chump

I didn't have much trouble with him, personally.

>>334237373
What it entails.
So basically it just resets you to SL1 with 10 in each stat if you started as deprived?
Running around in the skelly place which reminds me of the chalice dungeons.
Had to spend my money fixing my PC for uni stuff so I have no cash for DaS3, trying to avoid spoilers
Is it true that there's a ring that makes your rolls act like Bloodborne's sidesteps? I know that there's one that makes you regain health from hits
>>334237448
that means i need 11 str for a 14 str weapon then, damn
>get to smoldering Lake
>fucking giant ballista raining down giant bolts down on me
Why
>people are still posting in the old thread
why does this anger me so
>>334237606
I'm still using the Merc's starting weapons. Just about to fight Dancer and they're working fine for me.
>just about ready to spec into DEX with Rosaria since everything in this game attacks fast and it's almost impossible to play a STR character
that and I wasted points on FAI when it's complete trash in this game
>>334237651
I dunno about a ring, but most daggers have BBs quick step as their weapon art.
>>334237570
I kind of wish he still had the spectral swords in his arena
>>334237651
theres a ring that makes you regain a LITTLE health from SUCCESSIVE hits. at least in my experience its not that usefull
>>334237570
>remove sword
>mash r1 with mace
>dodge his telegraphed attack and mash r1
>mash while he transforms
>dodge his telegraphed attack and mash r1
>win in less than a minute
>>334237647
>334237647
exactly, and then you can put all your previous levels into any stats you want
Wait does curse no longer debuff you?
I just killed the Pontiff and I'm not sure what I'm going for now.
There's too many mages, they fuck me.
Going down the ladder past the two assholes fucks me because of thunderdogs
Not going down the ladder gets me fucked by the two assholes
>>334237746
Spoilers: He shows up two times in the game.
>>334237754
Fuck that ring. It sounded so cool and I wasted a boss soul on it and it's fucking nothing.
Wow, /vg/ actually has the better souls threads now.
Thanks for being containment on the plebs /v/
When a game starts having editions, it's time for it to go to vg.
>>334236909
>enemy has their shield up
>go to kick them
>they attack you before your kick goes off
Every time. The fuck is even the point?
>>334237831
I've been laying my sign down for hours at the dogs earlier. I'd help you out but I'm done for the night.
am I the only one who love road of sacrifices? that place where you fight the crystal sage was amazing, but too bad farron keep sucks, des anybody know hos to open the big door?
>>334237606
Pic almost any sword anon. Or rapier. Most pole weapons. Twin weapons. Really any weapon that isnt the butcher knife or a faith weapon.
thanks for the ambush From. i sure could have avoided that piece of shit when everything is the same brown/green blobIm madcuzbad
>>334237848
>Spoilers:...
>not using
>>334237869
I kinda expected as much considering how much this game doesnt want you to regain health outside of flasks. But I spent the soul anyway just to see. unusable in pvp maybe itd be good for someone using a dagger? I dont even know.
HOLY FUCK, YOU CAN RIPOSTE THE GARGOYLES.
I don't think you can actually parry them, but if you beat the shit out of them they run out of stamina, and if you riposte them they fall on their ass.
>>334237681
You can get up there if you fall down the hole to izalith.
I'd use the ballista to kill the sandworm first though
>>334237770
I feel like Knight is the best, am I wrong?
>>334237889
What do you mean by 'now'? Yesterday they were getting absolutely flooded with posts. Granted there's a better signal to noise ratio on dsg for instance less console war shit.
Is the Faaram Armor set in this game? If it is where can you get it?
>>334237869
>>334237754
You have to hit FOUR times in a row to get the heal, although hitting multiple enemies counts towards that too
>>334238093
no Idea, I went full strength like I always do for my first playthrough so I picked the Warrior
>>334237831
A bonfire appears in that room if you kill them, and one of them drops the ring of favor. If you use a bow you can pull one into the area by the ladder, still a pain to fight though
I goddamn hate myself for losing story/quest content running blindly. I've checked wiki few times and I've missed bluemoon covenant, Patches encounters, blue lady encounters and fuckload of other stuff. Also fuck the color of chestd, I can't even find the damn Dark Sword. I am too scared to play freely when the idea of losing some NPC or something hauntd me.
Fuck the free lvl up guy too, I didnt even get the lvl ups and now I miss something!
>>334238291That's what NG+ is for, anon.
This fucking game. What the FUCK? Why is it so fucking linear? I never thought that even DaS2 would be a better game.
Is there a stone ring or equivalent in this game?
>>334238373
How far are you, anon?
what does the giant in the cathedral of the deep drop if you kill him?
Anyone notice that arrows FINALLY fucking have decent hit detection? Like I can peak around the corner, fire an arrow, and the arrow won't "hit" the space 3 feet to the right of a pillar anymore? Bows are pretty decent this time around. Especially for a scrub like me who picks off mobs instead of taking them head on like a mad man
>knock an enemy to the ground
>they cant be hurt until they are back on their feet
>enemy knocks me to the ground
>proceeds to fucking hammer my ass to death or off a cliff so i cant get up
"Fair"
>>334237570
As one of the few who are not tryhards who thinks the world revolves around me, yes it is a wake up.
First phase I thought "Wow this game is great!"
Second phase I thought "My hubris is my downfall."
Took me4 times
>>334238483
Enemies have less i-frames than you when knocked down.
Git gud.
>>334238461
I remember it being fucking shit, and not liking having wasted my time.
>>334238420
I killed just Nameless King.
the Dungeon is fucking worse than Blightown.
>have to wake up the giant and get squashed by it just to progress
>respawning rats
>hordes of basilisks with tons of HP
>huge drops everywhere
fucking wake me up
So if anyone wants something similar to DaS parry timing use the caestus in your left hand. Seems to work faster than the shields
Abyss Watchers, Pontiff and Aldritch may be my favorite bosses in the series; this game is so fucking good.
>>334238373
Man, I don't know what your on about. I am lost as fuck, I feel like I'm just stumbling upon locations. The areas aren't nearly as linear as ds2 at the very least. Even if all roads lead to Rome, it still feels open ended as fuck
>>334238638
oh and the fucking jailors that remove your HP but at least you can speed run past them
>Get invaded
>Pop giant seed
>Turn into a statue
>Wait and watch while the invader beats the level for me
Sunbros are you even trying?
>>334237570
His Champion form is really fun.
What level is everyone going into the Abyss Watchers fight? I want to stay there being summoned for a while to grind, but I'm not sure if 31 is under leveled or over.
How was I even supposed to get past the part in Castle Lothric with the two dragons? I ended upcheesing them with arrowssince I tried over and over to find a safe way through.
Fuck all you Farron forest niggas
WHAT DOES A NIGGA GOTTA DO TO GET A BLESSED GEM IN DIS SHIT
Holy fuck it's like each area of this game brings a new level of bullshit. I'd rather choke on flaming pieces of shit than continue progressing through the catacombs or this Cathedral of the Deep fucked.
>>334238638
>you don't have to wake the giant
>???
>four or so basilisks that die in three hits if you go for a certain chest
>literally where?
Dungeon is shit, but none of this is true.
Where can I find any good Miracles? Like a lightning spear would be perfect. I just beat the 3rd boss, that tree guy, and don't have any damage spells. Faith seems meh this time around though I guess Lightning Spears were nerfed later in Dark Souls 2's life.
>unable to summon phantom
>unable to summon phantom

Why?
>>334237624
this
that mechanic is going to make invading more frequent and fun
>>334238483
wish I had the video of a villager with a pot slamming me into the ground 6 times in a row
>>334238836
I've been destroying those trespassing fucks
>>334238829
Run onto the bridge, take a short hop down to the right. Path leads back around
>>334238816
I think most would be higher.
>>334238829
if you drop down from the bridge you can run into a building that gets allows you to cut to the other side and go in the building with the firebomb chuckers
There if you whack the dragon's foot in there, a rat demon thing pops out an both dragons just kind of die for some reason.
>>334238905
Dude fuck those guys, I still always get hit atleast once by then no matter what way I fight them
>>334238896
they wanted the Dark Souls 1 audience
>>334238896
I dunno, probably just needs to be patched or something. Also, here's your obligatory
>git
>gud
Can someone help me out with the summons? Im not sure what all the colors mean.
What is a purple summon sign? A yellow one? A white one?
I feel like ive seen more than those.
What is damage absorption? Is it just a representation of the effectiveness of defense?
>>334238928
>>334238952
I did go down and around that way, but still couldn't make it to the other side of the bridge before the dragons killed me. Maybe I just didn't do it right?
Parts of DS3 are massive bullshit, everything in BB was challenging but fair.
Like those fucking wardens in the Ithyrill Dungeon, how the fuck are you supposed to counter their health draining effect? 1 on 1 it's okay but in a room with like 8 of them, it's bullshit.
I feel like they're starting to get into Dark Souls 2 territory. Just like those 2 giant rats in the room in the same area. ! on 1 they're okay, but they're so fast that it's impossible to really fight them, kiting isn't really an option either.
Also:
>Mimic that spawns about 6 basilisks behind you the second you attack it
Complete bullshit.
The whole area is just bullshit.
Some Dark Souls 2 tier bullshit right here
What gear gives item discovery? Dunno if I have any but I'd like some to hunt some fire witch gear off the spear bitches in frost town
>>334239074
Purple signs mean that it's an elite player who should be able to clear the area no problem.
Whites are scrubs, yellows are the Praise the meme audience.
Red is also good if you see any of those.
>>334239074
Purple can attack you or enemies.
White and Yellow can only attack enemies. White is neutral and yellow is the coop covenant.
>>334238896
>place my sign down
>summoned in 2 seconds
>want to summon someone because this fucking Iirithyll Dungeon area is pissing me off
>unable to summon
>unable to summon
>unable to summon
I can't wait until I beat it once so I can look up every little detail and know every last drop.
This not knowing is killing me.
>>334239074
white and yellow are allies
purple is technically neutral, but in practice wants to kill you
red kills you
blue kills those who would kill you
don't know yet about others
>>334239156
I'm playing on PS4 and jesus christ this is unreal.
I NEED this game at 60fps
Did they fix the crashes yet?
>>334239074
Yellow: SunBro. Helps out for Sunlight Covenant
White: White Sign Soapstone, helps out for Embers + Souls
Red: Red Sign Soapstone, comes to your world to duel
Purple: Mad Phantoms, work for Mound Makers covenant. Can help you with clearing areas or kill you.
Yellow with Red: SunBro using Red Sign Soapstone to duel.
>>334238568
Second phase was easier. Big ass attacks with long pauses. Killed him first try with 2 estus remaining.
Died to the bear one cause I got trapped in the corner while he was charging. But you can just stay close and it's easy.
The tree is some BS and I had BoC flashbacks. Took like 5 times cause I got too greedy.
Abyss watchers was fun. Pretty easy again, just roll a lot.
That giant skeleton was pretty simple as well. Just make sure to go left, right, left on the rings.
>>334238816
I'm level 31 and I'm getting constant summons for the tree, so you should be fine.
>>334239259
I think for most people they're running fine with decent frame rates now
MFW 1000 SKELETONS SUDDENLY WANT TO KICK MY ASS
>>334239080
I think it is a percent, or at least a weighted value. Can't describe yet how it relates to defense, but i would guess the two values multiply with each other.
I do know while I carry armor that almost cripples me i take about half the damage of the "wizards" who can't be arsed to dodge
>>334239220
still feels jittery to me, i need that 144hz and i need it now
although it would probably kill my gpu
>>334239218
>>334239283
okay so reds want to throw down. if you lose a fight with an invader, you still drop souls? can you go pick em up?
>>334237519
>if you die as an invader your bloodstain goes to where you died as the invader
The Cathedral Greatsword is the coolest
>>334238727
>the jailors that remove your hp
and they gang up and you get a 1hp max health bar.
>>334238661
Not that guy, but the levels so far have been FotFG/Bastille tier which is neat.
But you are still stuck on a single track that you are forced to go through to advance the game which is quite a bummer since the previous 3 souls game give you quite an option on where to go.
Its a huge letdown for me.
>>334239285
>Skeleton was easy
It has been the single hardest Boss in this game for me so far. I'm like over halfway through the game, too. Died over 10 times to it. It's like Bed of Chaos meets Skeleton Lords. The gas hitbox doesn't line up and it's a DPS race.
Why is Aldrich such a bitch? I still don't understand how you're supposed to dodge that second phase arrow storm attack, I think I just got lucky.Is Aldrich Gwyndolin?
>>334239285
I meant more like "I forgot I was playing dark souls" where every boss, even a tutorial, reminds you that there is always a need to git good.
I made you something.
>>334239614
You run the fuck away from the arrows.No. He ate Gwyndolin. Read the item descriptions.
>>334239660
hehehehe
>>334239441
Yeah it's like any other death, you lose your souls and have to go get them back wherever it was that you died.
>>334239441
I would doubt it. In general I run blue cov unless I am invading or helping. In theory if you are boss running you can have a 4v1 fight against the enemy invader
Sent greirat out for the 3rd time.
I fucked up didn't I?
Never really pvp'd in any of the Souls games but I joined the Wolf covenant after finding it and god damn the hit detection is fucking atrocious, how do people find this fun? I usually just pull the host towards the crabs or the two niggas with the club and curved greatsword so I don't have to deal with that shit.
>>334239541
I love the thick look it has, same with the Darksword. The 2H R2 poke is real nice, too.
>>334239414
Reel spit doe:
People shit on the 970, but that's what I have in my pc and I've suffered absolutely zero slowdown so far, even in the swamp where a reviewer or 2 said the game always stutters. My impression from /v/ is that the memecard 970 is literally the only graphics card that runs this nigger at a constant 1080p 60fps with no bullshit, including cards that are objectively better. What gives?
The final boss fight is fun as fuck, what a game.
Where do I begin the path towards Yorm? I have every other lord of cinder except for him, and Aldrich seems to have been a dead end.
>>334239707So he apparently devoured the gods, so who else other than Gwyndolin? Also, what if the PC killed Gwyndolin in DS1?
>>334239830
The servers are at their most stressed, over time they will add new ones...or pvp will die out. In either case the lag on the server side will improve. Just make sure yours is good as well.
So I miss siegward at the well, I just passed through him straight to bonfire and went somewhere else. Later when I got back there he wasn't there anymore. I went up to Firelink and also didn't found him, I even encountered Patches but he wasn't selling his armor. How can I get Siegward to go show up again, anybody knows?
>>334239830
>I usually just pull the host towards the crabs or the two niggas with the club and curved greatsword
This is what invasions are really meant to be, fucking hosts over by making enemies/the environment that much harder to deal with. It's why From lets hosts have one more phantom slot than invader slots.
>>334239901
It's the other path right before you enter the sewer thing under Irithyll.
>>334239929
His lower body is nito, as is his spear. I'd like to think that the fire comes from him eating izalith, but that could just be him and his cinder privilege
what the fuck how do you kill the spooky skeleton? he has like a billion hp
>>334239980
Are you sure you did everything with him at the undead settlement?
>host walks off the end of the rotating platform into the air
>i try to turn it and end up falling through the ground and dying
What the fuck
>>334239824
Yup
I just used a summon for Crystal Sage because I'm a lazy shit. Now I gotta decide whether I wanna blast through Farron's Keep or Cathedral of the deep. I thought everyone said this game was totally linear?
>>334240064
try attacking the glowing yellow weak points, anime!!
>>334240051
So did he eat dead gods? I mean, Gwyndolin and Nito die in DS1.
>>334239901
You have to go through the Irithyll Dungeon area.
>>334240064
Hit the weak point.
It does huge damage
>>334239929
>Gwynevere was an illusion
>Ornstein was an illusion
>Gwyndolin was an illusion
Was everything an illusion?
>>334240064
A deal's a deal, Anon!
Now you gotta beat on my bracelets!
>>334238934
Which reshade?
So if I make my name Chosen Unfed (which I've been doing since ds1) will it be censored?
>>334240064
Attack the big glowing wristbands. Go for the left one first.
>>334239929I'm assuming he just ate his corpse then or something.
>>334240137
Yeah, they die to chosen undead... wonder who Aldrich could be :^)
>>334240116
Cathedral is an optional area, you don't have to complete it to finish the game.
Also, the game at most will only split into 2 different area.
What the fuck does going hollow do?
>>334240116
Since you're there might as well tackle the Cathedral. You'll have to do it eventually anyways.
>>334240209Don't they all do the disappear animation thing upon death? What Corpses?
>>334239993
This.
I was helping a lad with curse tree. The single invader pulled us toward in the opposite direction. Despire a 1v3 he at least caused us enough trouble to sabotage the boss attempt by pulling us toward an ambush.
>>334239929He ate his corpse/soul/soul fragments
Pretty cool stuff, so far all the Lords of Cinder are metal as fuck. All the DaS1 connections are making my head hurt after 2's shit, though.
>>334240312
Cathedral is not optional, you need an item off the boss there to proceed eventually.
>>334240312
You need the doll from the Cathedral to get into Irithyll.
>>334238934
are you forcing the anti aliasing from the nvidia control panel?
Someone give me an Run idea fuck.
I've been playing since Demon's Souls and I just don't know if I want to play a warrior with a big ass sword or be a mage.
>>334240339I don't know, I always thought of that as just a video game thing and that the devs would probably leave boss corpses around if they could. I might be wrong though.
So I took one free level from the hunchback guy and I'm starting to turn hollow as fuck (after about 4 hours or so of playtime has passed). Since I fucked up and took his level without knowing the consequences, should I just go full hollow and collect the (apparently) many free levels he gives you cuz YOLO? Is there any downside other than being uggo?
>>334240474
Dual weapons only.
where the fuck is Old Wolf of Farron Bonfire?
i can't find it. need to get there for Sirris questline.
i already beat abyss watcher
>>334240362
God damnit. I dunno what it is about this place but it's the most frustrating area I've ever experienced in a Souls game. My controller is on borrowed time right now
Where do you get the great scythe? I need my weapon-fu back
>>334240474
dual wield ultra great swords
So what are your thoughts on all the DS1 references in this game? Pandering and lazy or clever and well-done?Andre, Anor Londo, Gwyndolin, Old Demon King, etc.
So I killed this first giant in the cathedral from the top levelwith farron dartsand he dropped an item but I ate shit on the way to collect it and it despawned. I'm guessing no but was that anything good?
Also did I fuck up by not dumping points into vigor? Literally anything can two shot me. Maybe I should give up fast rolling for more armor?
>>334240549
Up a ladder, has 3 slugs at the base of it.
>>334240205
>>334240179
>>334240143
>>334240132
I already figured out I probably had to hit those bracelets but my weapon keeps hitting his bones first, i'll try out a different weapon now however so thanks
>>334240549
Go up that ladder next to the closest bonfire to the wolf door
>>334240040
I looked around and there's a graveyard and a little alleyway with dogs, both were dead ends. Not sure if I went too far or not anon :(
>>334240570
Easy, before the 3rd boss in a shed. In the village full of OP farmers. Where else?
I've been trying some Invading for shits and giggles in the area outside of Vordt's room.
If it wasn't for the fact that I was doing it 100% for the shiggles and not even really giving a shit, I don't see how I or anyone else could feasibly put up with this shit.
Every host has 2 phantoms, I have to get my souls back when I die, and everyone is already at the point where they're whipping around boss phantoms and using invisi-rings and shit.
Oh well.
Why does From Software put in meme enemies in each new game?
The singing ladies in Bloodborne and now the Smoldering spear ladies that lower your health if you make eye contact.
>>334240585
It's like a soul and 4 dung piles
It's really not worth it
>>334238896
People are getting summoned too quickly.
>>334240675
Third boss as in the ballsack tree? Thank you anon, I won't let you down.
>>334237570
I literally only got hit once and I'm not even that good
>>334240573
I've only gotten as far as the end of the Carthus Catacombs but I like what they've done so far with all the item descriptions and NPC throwbacks. It's building on DS1 stuff in little ways rather than DS2's method of just saying all the old items were from some mysterious land from a long time ago and not giving us anything else.
Any good faith weapons? I've been running around with an elemental weapon this whole time and ignoring basic str/dex/int/faith stats until just now.
>>334240679
Next time you invade try the starting areas, not ending areas. You should not be trying to attack where the vast majority of the defense is. Dark souls or otherwise, that is a bad idea
>>334240725
Shit is like Jeopardy. You have to be fast as fuck or hope there are many signs out.
>>334240549
up a ladder in the poison swamp. right before those three lit braziers to open the door.
>>334240573
Most of it is shameless pandering and I wish it wasn't there, butAnor Londoand theStorm Rulerare too cool for me to be upset about.
>>334240704
Prepare To Die :^)
>>334240786
Some weapons will get up to S scaling if you give them a faith scaling infusion.
>>334240747
Competence breeds competence. It is between the bonfire closest to the boss and the boss in a building.
whats the trigger for being able to fight dancer, or I guess, having the old woman in that area die naturally?
>>334238461
There's two giants. They drop large titanite and dung pies. So literally shit.
>>334240660
Go to the bonfire in that church(the 3rd I think), then follow the side door out to the little pond area, the path to Yhorm's area is that way.

>DS2's method of just saying all the old items were from some mysterious land from a long time ago and not giving us anything else.
DaS2 method is the correct method if you consider FROM track record when it comes to lore and story telling.
Ambiguous, and sometimes open ended that leaves up to the player to extrapolate themselves is what makes Souls game lore stand out among the other.
Blatant name dropping and corpse littering is now how FROM roll, at least not how they used to.

how do you answer?
>>334241000
Blessed trips,I got it, thanks anon!
>>334240965
You can actually fight the Dancer early by killing the old woman before she naturally dies. You can fight Dancer before you even fight Vordt, but she's almost impossible at that point.
>>334241051
I don't play as females.
>>334241051
Because I'm a sissy faggot dad, stop asking me this.
>>334240196
Mine, I'm just sitting here waiting for there to be a DS3 Nexus to finish it and upload it.
>>334240376
No the game runs like shit for me.
>>334241015
The issue with DS2 item descriptions for DS1 throwbacks was that there was little open to interpretation. It was all just "this shit is old and from some other place".
>>334241051
I'm trying to make her look like my favourite npc from a previous game.
>>334241051
In this game? Because there's no difference.
In another game I might say because they're hot.
>>334241051
I'm wearing full plate armor. I just try really hard not to die so they don't hear me scream.

Okay so between the bonfire just before the first white tree arrow segment and the boss I missed. Thank you. I will explore.
>>334241015
>Ambiguous, and sometimes open ended
That's not really what DaS2's throwbacks did, though. It wasn't suggesting anything new about the old items or NPCs, it only told us what we already knew from DaS1 and threw on a tagline of how all that happened a long time ago.
Whereas DaS3 hints at and in some cases shows what has actually happened to those old things since the time of DaS1, like the imprisoned Darkwraith in Lothric or the spot where you find the Quelana Pyromancy Tome.
>>334241051
Females move quicker but do less damage, dad.
Started the game. Killed Ice Sif and Tree Balls. Honestly at this point I feel like I'm just going through the motions so far. I got an ice sword from the ice guy right in front of sacrificial road so thats cool I guess. Still dont know what frostbite does
Damn the bosses give a shit amount of souls.
where do i exchange sunlight medal for reward?
If you kill the Giants in the cathedral do they stay dead?
>>334236909
what's an easy way to beat the big, fat women?
>>334237362
This clipping shit is fucking retarded. I died god knows how many times because of it
>>334241279
the boss souls themselves give quite a bit more though.

>talking to Sirris
>put down the DS4 while listening
>heavy attack goes out its own
jesus fucking christ. this is annoyed me since Bloodborne every time i put down my DS4 i lost one bullet
>>334240814
I don't even really give that much of a shit about the phantoms, but where is the player motivation supposed to be for invasions in this?
Literally the only reason I'm even doing it now is because I've never even attempted to invade in previous games.
All you get are piss all for souls, an ember (which are easier to get just plopping your sign at a boss), and more trouble than either of these are worth.

Holy shit that was fucking awesome. Totally makes up for the horrid experience that was tree and crystal sage.
Where the fuck do I go in the dungeon? Theres like an entire lower are that I don't know how to access.
I killed the giant in the rat pit and got the shortcut but after that I'm clueless.
Is this for fucking real right now? I just got to the roof of Castle Lothric, and see this.The painting makes more, and less sense now.
>>334241298

>>334239209
Are you me
>>334241681
Plus you lose your Souls where you died in the host's world and get dropped into a 1v2 or 1v3 more often than not.
Invasions fucking suck right now.
If I'm going DEX, I should make my weapons sharp, right?
So, the area right after Onionbro helped me kill the fire demon thing I noticed one of those body bags hanging with an item. Right as I swung my sword to knock it down I noticed the bodybag squirming around like the person inside was still alive. Then it fell and I got a north something or other armor set. Did I just accidentally kill an NPC or was there no way not to kill it?
>>334241774
Are you the guy whos posting on the wiki?
>>334241731
Had to fight that fucker twice because he bugged on out my first time since I got summoned to defend the swamp. Came back from the summon and he was just standing in the middle of the room with no boss hp bar. The adds still spawned and final form cutscene triggered but he still just stood there. Bone'd outta there because I wasn't down to cheese him out like that.
>>334241731
Apart from being easy what was horrible about them?
>>334241863
Nope.

Melee only made treeboss awful. Hard to do any sort of hit and run when he has all the fucking range in the world. Waiting for his hand to get near you to hit it takes too fucking long, and it's really annoying how the game makes a big deal about hitting his balls, only to have a bunch on him that you can't actually hit (on his back, left thigh, etc.)
Crystal Sage was just ... Fools Idol. Again. Just disappointing.

explore the sewer of the snowy place outside the manor that leads to the dungeon.

Beat the big spooky skeleton and the papal army in cathedral. After the cathedral go to Irythill.

Last Giant was easy town, all you literally have to do is just stand underneath it
>>334242340
Did you open the two doors in the cathedral bonfire? Pretty sure you have to go through almost the entire cathedral and open them both before he pops up.
>>334242217
I actually killed him by hitting the ones on his back. Overhead swing just after he flops down on his back and starts getting up.
Just beat the undead Legion they were pretty fun.

>>334242513
Did you set crossregion play on?.
I only managed to get summoned/invaded after that.
I'm curious about the thief npc. At the same time I'd rather not be spoiled. So at first I thought it was interesting that he could vanish on will after talking to him. Made it seem like he was using the jail as a safe place but that he could leave whenever he wanted. Then the npcs after him do the same thing and what I thought was a cool thing about the thief character is just usual for the other npcs. Is there a reason they vanish in thin air like that?
>oh boy a mimic
>stand behind him and wail on him
>get grabbed by frontail grab and teleported into his hold
I sure am glad a-team worked on this!
>>334242691
Yeah, sunbro invasions specifically prioritize hosts with 2 or more phantoms because they want there to be the possibility of 2 red phantoms.
I don't know what it is but this game is pissing me off way more than 1 or 2 ever did
>>334242720

>>334242186
Skipped him for now, that shit is retarded. I could handle him if he didn't move forward so much with each attack pushing you into his nuts every time
What shield is everyone using? I got the black knight shield which has pretty good stability but upgrading it is a bitch. It' also pretty heavy.
Skelly Lord Worst Boss
>>334242754
That's describing what the skill does, not what you have to do. Press L2 while 2 handing (unless that's a shield skill)
>>334242754
It's telling you what the skill is, not how to use it. Use weapon skills by two-handing your weapon (if necessary) and press/hold L2/LT.
>>334242732
That boss is dumb though.
He kills his own skeletons. Just keep running, ignoring the skellies and hitting the bracelets.
If you really can't ignore them get a weapon with an aoe moveset, like the halberd.
should i use claymore for str/fth build?
Honestly feel like I've fucked up my build. Went Str (with a little Dex) and Faith expecting to be able to get some offensive miracles but I've got none andthe QT priestess has fucked off (probably dead).
>>334242754
All the weapons skills are used by L2, you mongoloid fuck. There's an entire class of shield in the game that specifically allows you to use weapon skills of your right hand weapon, to boot.
Here's a tip: you can enter fashion mode in the equipment screen by clicking the right stick twice. You'll be able to see your character in full and see what gear looks good together.
This is important because who gives a shit about stats when you look fly as hell?

Two hand the weapon and then L2/LT. I don't know about that skill though. Sometimes it's just a tap, other weapons you can hold it down and then your regular attacks become different while doing it.

>>334243058
You can make it a little less miserable by equipping a dagger with the Quickstep weapon art. When you have to wade through the mud, two-hand the dagger and mash quickstep. It'll eat up your FP, but you can still perform the move with 0. It's significantly faster than walking or fatrolling through the mud.

How do you sidestep? I thought it was the weapon but I'm still rolling with it
So is there no soul memory in this one? Because there is no way I could get summoned immediately when I had 100k souls from grinding sunlight medals on tree boss.

And the area's so far aren't all that great either
>>334243426
I don't think dark souls is for you
>>334243392
Not him but the only boss that took a decent amount of tries was pontiff and a shield isn't gonna help you with him anyways.
>>334243392
Nice projection The first seven bosses in the game are easier without blocking. Shit, the only one where blocking is even viable is Abyss Nerds, but he's so fucking easy to stagger it doesn't matter
>>334243506
Increases the amount of phantom that can join your world.
I like using it in the watch dog area.

Swamp are what game designers do when they feel lazy. When From calls you in to work on sunday, you better believe you're designing the swamp that day, because nobody gives a fuck.
Seriously there is no design, here. Its not big, its just a big open space full of bullshit with some items in plain sight. It only sucks because of poison, moving slow, and annoying enemies.
Even the swamp level in banjo kazooie is ass.

Does no one else feel like DS3's firekeeper is fucking worthless? If there's more to her story later then maybe not, but if she's really how she seems so far she's somehow even more boring than the Emerald Herald.
>>334244204
You probably just need to get used to the differences in combat. High Wall sometimes felt like an area designed solely to make you adapt to it.
FUCK THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!
The screaming corpses in the dungeon
Fuck you from.

How many tries did it take you? I kept slipping up at the finish line. Got him eventually when I realized you could backstab them.
>>334244060
I couldn't find them in the catacombs and beat the boss, no idea where they are now hm.
>>334244296
Felt the same way concerning the doll. She didn't feel important at all except for one ending and the inclusion of the expansion
Zweihander feels amazing so far. Please tell me it doesn't become an awful piece of shit.
any way to cheese this big guy? Killed the other by attacking his toe from the stairs.

You just hit his feet and roll away from his long ass wind-ups. Don't know what else to tell you
>>334243661
He's pretty easy
The soul arrows can be Dodge BT the sides, they track
Just constantly move
>>334238168
It is. No idea where it is though
>>334244396
Arrows if you really want to cheese. I found he wasn't too hard to kill by ankle biting though.
>>334244396
Best way to cheese him is to move him towards the staircase on the far right side of where you're looking. Go up the stairs and just kill the shitslugs that go towards you. Once you're done, get the giant in that area where you can easily just slap his foot a few times, then back up onto the staircase.
Repeat until victory.
>>334244341
Maybe? I just know that they drops storyteller staffs (and maybe weapons with the same prefix) so I figured that's what their name was.
>>334244396
Go up on the ledge.
stand near the front so your close to falling off when he does his swipes if you roll backward he can't hit you.
wait for him to do a slam, dodge then get 2 hits in. repeat 10 times.

MoB - Believed to be the "mother" of The Old One. Is the only one that can lull it back to sleep
Emerald Herald - Artificial being created by the dragons or some shit. Shes the one that spreads the rumors of Lodran to get people to come and maybe link the fire or something
Doll - Old Man Gherman wanted to bone his student but she wouldn't let him. Made a waifu doll of her which Moon Presence brought to life in Hunter's Dream.
Fire Keeper - ???
>>334244627
If he stabs the ground, roll. Kinds like Nito magic sword. The snaking flame has a visible trail the entire time, how are you getting hit by it?

LET ME FUCKING RE-TYPE IT FOR YOU:

SO, HOW DO I *SEE* SOMEBODY OFF MY SCREEN AND AROUND TWO CORNERS?
Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to the other part where you fucked up:
>HOW THE FUCK DO I DODGE MAGIC TRAILS OF FIRE THAT DON'T APPEAR UNTIL THEY'RE ABOUT TO HIT ME?
If you weren't a worthless fucking retard, you'd realize that
>Magic trails of fire that don't appear
Would mean that the fire trail isn't fucking appearing.
Why?
Because it touches an incline and goes under the ground because from are fucking Japs that can't code.
>>334244838
Restart your game
>>334244746
my only complaint about the game is that the armor sucks
in bb it was pretty easy to acquire interesting clothing if you completed shit but in this you have to farm like a motherfucker to get a full set
I've beaten over 30 knights in Lothric and STILL don't have gauntlets. fuck the luck stat
>>334244796
Where does she keep it? I must know!
I've done all of Undead Settlement except for the Curse-Rotted Greatwood, which I'm at now. Two tries so far, first phase was no problem on second try anymore, no health loss. Third phase was random dodging and hitting and used almost all estus, third phase gave me the rest. Using Claymore +2, pretty happy with it so far.
Definitely doable, but I have to leave for a few hours now.
>>334244746
I'll be summoned eventually
>>334244920

If that's an issue, there's is a ring of fire where the pillar comes up. Assuming you can fast roll you can dodge on sight of that ring. That being said

The ride hasn't even begun, has it? Is SL 35 or so good for this place? I've been forced to be offline the whole time. Zwei's at +3, dunno how I want to infuse it yet.

Guys where the fuck is Patches? I beat the deacons and he still hasn't popped up.
>>334244857
Just Cuck my shit up
>>334245058
I love that FFXIV lets you wear different armor from the ones influencing your stats.
How the fuck do I use the old cell key?
I read somewhere it's it profaned capital
>>334245053
>The ring at the bottom
No shit, retard. I'm not fucking stupid.
And now we get to the third part of where you just didn't fucking read:
AND HE'S STILL FUCKING CASTING SPELLS AT ME WHILE HIS BUTT BUDDY MELEE HEX-VOMIT MAN SWINGS HIS FROSTBITE DICK AROUND
It's not him ALONE that's the problem.
It's his fucking entourage of sanic swordhog buddies.
>>334245071
Backtrack to the not poison swamp in the Road to Sacrifice and has left towards these ruins. Follow the path and fight the boss and keep going.
>>334245104
You're not dying to the not-Baldur knights, are you anon?
Does anyone have a transparent golden ratio face overlay thing?

>>334245071
nigga you fucked up
go back to the swamp, beat the crystal sages, then go to cathedral and fuck up the deacons
have fun with your two bosses and bleeding
>>334245191
no but I don't want to have to use the coins, die for whatever reason and then have to find them again

Early Game:

Mid-Game:
>go full Fashion Souls, fuck stats
>using weapon you're going to use for rest of game
Feels good.
So is there supposed to be a bonfire or shortcut or something in the Cathedral near the fog gate? I found one of them but the other door in the Cathedral is still locked.
Who /SL1Deprived/ here?
Just killed Skeleton boss, probably going to finish first run as SL1.
I have no idea what I really want to level and use this time, so I just roll and hit a lot.
How the fuck are some people chilling at such low levels? There's not a ton of upgrade items given in the first few areas, what the fuck are you spending your souls on if not leveling? How do you not hit 30 by the time you fight tree and such
>>334245180
>>334245268
Thanks ladsI hope I find a proper weaponfu soon, so far it's been largely this and the Claymore.

You should hate the developer instead. It's retarded to have arbitrary IF and BUT statements all over NPC progress with no way of knowing whatsoever if you're about to pass an invisible progress barrier.

>Ok, did you make sure to meet Patches first, then go back to a previous zone for Seigward?
>Did you make sure that after you met Seigward again you DIDN'T progress past "Arbitrary Zone 1" but instead went back to the earlier area, got his armour and then returned to him immedaitely?
>Okay now when you're almost at the next boss STOP and turn around, go the complete opposite path and talk to Seigward in a cell, then go the other way again and get the key and come back and THEN go to the boss and you'll see Seigwards final scene.
>Didn't do anything of the above properly? Well you'll find his Storm sword at Yhorms room but not his armour and no cutscene. He's dead/finished his duty and left but you wouldn't know that because there is no body and you had to do the above correctly to see the scene and get the dialog.

I read this but it's too late for me. I already had Seigward help me and I haven't met patches yet. I also killed the great tree before joining the mound makers.
I regret nothing and no fucks were given that day.
I didn't buy Dark Souls 3 day one to be spoiled, that why I played for 2 day as much as I could before coming to these threads. Play Dark Souls 3 unspoiled or don't play them at launch at all, familia.

You know that period when you successfully summon and there's a massive like 20+ second delay before the phantom actually comes into your world?
Well during that delay, that guys sign is still active in peoples worlds, and those are the ones that give the error.
Combine that with people basically instantly summoning every sign that goes down and you've got worlds full of Unable to Summon signs.
>>334246129
The signs refresh every 10 seconds?
So you end up summoning ones that already disappeared.
In DaS1 you could manually refresh it.
>>334244627

I know it was near a shortcut elevator in Irithyll Dungeon but I can't find it, checked 2 shortcut elevators but it was neither of those.
Doing my second run now, going for a jolly coop fun build, summoning every time I can, thought I have a question.
Why is it sometimes I can summon a Sunbro + White and sometimes I can only summon 1?
>>334242994

I'm way past that now and I'm SL 71 so there's no way I'm getting summoned to that fight now.
>>334244469

>>334247423
Don't sprint away, do back and forth motion like worms or whatever. They slow down for some reason trying to turn
>>334247595
don't stress it anon, I felt the same way back in demon souls. pretty much every souls player when they first started had trouble. Dark Souls 3 is much faster than the older souls games, so it's going to be harder to adjust.
