If it's impossible how come people beat it?
>>
>>334383006
Wandered in with 25,000 souls and panic killed it in my first try
>>
>>334383006
I got rekt until I equip the east-west shield then it became easy

OP, you remind me of that kid who always lost and blamed the controller, a bug or anything but his own level
>>
>>334383006
I couldn't do this without a summon, felt bad but at least I kept progressing

>>334383006

Literally easiest boss
>>
I took him down in like a minute. He barely has any health, I seriously expected there to be a second phase to the fight where he got his health back, but nothing happened. Just target the one with the purple casts when he multiplies himself and go all out on him while 2 handing your weapon. The later bosses are going to eat you alive if you can't beat this guy.
>>
>>334383745
That's Yhorm though.
>>
I didn't even get hit by crystal sage my first time. All it did was teleport and it was really fucking easy.
>>
>>334383420

What's the benefit of using east west over the knight shield?
>>
The regular enemy crystal sage you find in the grand archives is harder than the boss fight version.
>>
>>334383656
This is so weird
I died to Crystal Sage about 3 times, all of them because of stunlock by 2nd phase

Yet I first-try beat Abyss Walkers. No parry-spam bullshit, even.
>>
I thought Aldritch was one of the easiest bosses but it appears lots of people think he's the hardest? I also found the Crystal Sage really tough, all his second summons would fuck me while I focused on hitting the main dude

The only attack of Aldritch that was much of a threat was the fire imbued arrows, but even they took about two tries to work out how to dodge
>>
>>334383968
I'm pretty sure the knight shield doesn't have as much magic resistance
>>
>>334384136
Aldritch is a joke because he doesn't combo and has ridiculous delay between his attacks. I literally mashed R1 like a mongoloid and just hit estus after he attacked me. Didn't bother dodging at all. He might be hard if you're a mage or something
>>
>>334383656
>>334384047

Abyss Walkers are easy with a melee build, especially with fast weapons. The 2nd phase is literally hell for casters, (until you figure you can stunlock them with a short sword).
>>
>>334383125
There's a bug with the fight where it spawns an immortal clone, and the real one doesn't show up again.
>>
>>334384136
Aldrich obliterated me the first time around, I haven't gone back to fight him yet but Crystal Sage and the Abyss Walkers were piss easy with a pure melee build. It helps that no one knows how to deal with a fucking greatshield.

I love how everyone has trouble with different shit, I died a couple of times to the tutorial boss and didn't to crystal sage.

Pontiff All Business All The Time is currently pushing my shit in.

>>334383006
Fools idol 2.0, walkers and sully have been pushing my shit in, but so far I'm fine.
>>
>>334384136
Aldritch even has an attack where he falls to the ground and writhes around doing nothing for 30 years. How can people honestly find that hard?
>>
>>334384785
>He's super easy if you have fire orb

I got my ass kicked trying to fight him with pyromancies, than I just ran in and kept hitting him and it was piss easy.
>>
>>334385121
>Pontiff All Business All The Time

I used a Sacrifice Ring to nip out with the 40k souls I wandered in there with.

That fight is a bit too real right now.
>>
>>334385023
It's pretty fucking awful when you hit a point where you just assume that every single door near a bonfire is the obligatory shortcut and you end up being right 90% of the time.
Not to mention it results in there only ever being one fucking direction to travel in more often than not.
>>
>>334384301
It just seemed pretty random to me when Abyss would flinch or when he would tank through it and combo your ass if you tried to keep hitting him

The most I could ever get was two consecutive hits before he either normal rolls away, does the dodge into dagger lunge attack that cannot be interrupted/traded, or just decides to shrug off the flinch and start comboing you.

I always wanted to just be super aggressive instead of waiting for the others to spawn so I could fish for easy backstabs. His gigantic AOE in second phase punishes aggressive rolls pretty hard combined with his poise, and the flame aftereffect making you flinch also fucked up my aggression.

It just seems like he was designed to shit on my playstyle which is why he gave me so much trouble.
>>
>>334385149
And his teleport move takes about 6 seconds and you can easily hit his tail without fear of getting hit by the AoE explosion
>>
Who /trump/ here? Let's make the High Wall just a little bit higher and make Lothric great again

>>334384878
Yeah that's typically how shortcuts work anon.
>>
>>334385121
>>334385248
He destroyed me until I got a couple lucky parries off. Parrying those flashy shit bosses is a really great feeling.

He's definitely one of those bosses though where you just walk in the door and get annihilated in two seconds. Those types of fights can get pretty frustrating after a while because you feel like you aren't making any progress

>+1 estus
>all dat hp
how?
>>
>>334385290
>The most I could ever get was two consecutive hits before he either normal rolls away, does the dodge

Need a faster weapon, his fast attacks can be interrupted, it's his slow attacks which can't, so just keep an eye out for that and dodge.

How do you guys have the patience to play through this game? DS3 is my first DS and I got bored very quickly. It feels like I might be missing something but the gameplay can be shorten to run to monster and spam light attacks and roll around occasionally when boss/big weapon. You basically only die to weird vicious setups or bad combo rng on bosses and when you do you're forced to hack your way through all the useless trash mobs you've killed for the last 10 minutes.

I really don't get it

In Dark Souls 3 it is. It's exclusively how they work.

How does blue sentinels work guys? I can see the icon flashing but I don't get summoned

Was cruising through the game until I met this guy. Died to him like 10 times. It doesn't really help if you have high health if the clones stunlock/1-shot you in the second phase.

The game isn't for you. Return it.

Lore, build variety, atmosphere, enemy/boss design and etc. The weapons have their own movesets, there are many different armour designs for fashion fags, the bosses can be fun and interesting, sorcery is alright enough for mage fags blah blah.

This, I was in the Way of the Blue until I found the Rosalia Fingers, and up to that point, whenever I was invaded, which happened 4 times, a Blue would instantly get summoned to help me.

One time I was exploring that ruined keep part before the Crystal Sage, and got invaded, I didn't give a shit about it and kept exploring, a Blue was summoned, fought the Red and died, then another one was summoned, and also died, and finally when a third one was summoned, the Red found me and started pushing my shit in, but then all of sudden the blue dropped on him with a plunging attack and killed him.

Scaling works completely differently, in old games stats got weaker the more you leveled them so Quality builds were good. In DS3 stats get exponentially better the more points you put into them, so quality builds will always be shit in comparison to pure str/dex

>>334386825
Its cool too focus on the real one when you're going to get mauled by spells from all directions and die instantly.

I died 5 times to this guy, and when I won, I did because I was at my limit and when he spawned along with his clones, I decided to rush for the one I thought to be the real one before they even started chanting their spells so I could tell from the colors, and turns out I was right.

I don't know about you, but the clone's heavy soul arrows did around 60% hp damage to me, and the crystal sage's did 80% damage, and his homing, slow moving orb killed me in one hit.

And considering you can be hit by several of them at the same time, it is very easy to die instantly to that boss.

Actually that appears to only be for magic, scaling doesn't start till 20 points, then starts getting better at 50.

But for str/dex

So it just doesn't as bad as quickly as it does in in-previous games, which is why pure builds are better.

It's a great weapon, especially the weapon skills. I think the Washing Pole is a bit better because of the extra range, but it also consumes a fuckton of FP with the weapon skill R1, so that can be a problem.

The Black Blade is good too, it has a different 1H R2 that's similar to the weapon skill R1, and a different 2H R2. Shitty range but it hits harder than the other katanas.

It's nice in PvP because the weapon skills are hard to tell apart from your opponent's perspective, so it's difficult to tell if you're going for a parry or an R1.

>>334387721
Yea, his overhead smash and the Gwyn-style wide swing are really easy to parry. Two parries should push him into phase two. Once you get there, just tunnel free damage into him when he's charging and summoning the spirit, and wait for him to do his ground AoE to finish him off.

Easiest boss fight in the series that isn't Pinwheel and every other first boss (like Taurus Demon, but at least that fucker offed me a couple of times on my first run).

Didn't even die, you have enough room to run, hide and clones die in one hit, if you die to this boss, you need to learn how to dodge, I'm not even good at the game

I have two 260x cards (2gb each)
and a mid-range amd cpu. The game runs at about 50-40 fps on max settings, there are framedrops at some points but putting texture filtering to performance on radeon fixes it.

Stupid bosses if you use a slow weapon like the greatsword.

Especially nameless king is a bitch if you're not fast hitting.

Seriously though is there anyway to prevent Anri from dying if you beat Papa bones before deacon?

What fucking guide ? The content is leaked for 3 weeks. Every feed and youtube filled with fucking spoilers. I'm not spending another 20 hours walking at every possible wall and hitting it to find an illusion with the secret room. Also if you play online there is no fucking guide required - you just read the message on the ground and get told. This game is the epitome of casual walking simulator.

Sage is a very shit boss. Basically you have to have a reliable stagger. Once I swapped from scythe to lothric straight it was easier. You also want to learn his spots. He tends to favor a few over others when he splits so be on him before he can even cast and he'll start a new split before clones can cast.

You shouldn't crossfire two low-mid tier cards. The average benefit from the second card is approx 60%, but it's very polarized. Well optimized games might see 80% increase, but some other games might not see any benefit whatsoever. With a single card you'll have lot better driver support and smoother performance.
At the time you could have probably bought second hand 7970 (280X) or 7950 for around 200$, although I'm not very familiar with american second hand sites. I bought my 7950 for 240€ when R9 200 series wasn't even released.

Try to bait the attack where he jumps in the air and lunges forward. Mostly I have no problem just rolling through the attacks when they're both active though.
>>
>>334390128
Probably both.
They give you a huge amount of estus now, its like every bonfire is fully kindled for free, and rolls are reay forgiving.
If you have a good dps weapon you can basically just damage race every boss because you have so much health to work with and spamming roll will usually get you away safely enough to sippy.
Some of the bosses like pontif and dancer can still kill you if you slip up though.
