Why isn't Anri's straight sword more popular ?

Mine outscales the dark sword by 40AR

because luck is gimmicky while quality builds gives access to a fuckton more weapons

Awesome, I was hoping for that, I love Astora, fire Astora longsword carried me half the game so far.
Looking at the list of all the weapons, it was either going to be that or Lorians.

is the Greatsword of Judgement comparable to MLGS? I noticed they both have inherent INT scaling, but Judgement has noticeably lower base damage.

What's a good weapon to pick up as a pyromancer? Been using a broadsword for a while now. Should I keep using it and infuse it with fire or something?

>>336667443
Any SL passed 30 is a Ganksquad in my experience. I tried to do it for a while at 100 and it was constantly 4 man gank squads. It's always 2v4, and the moment you get down one of theirs, it turns into 3v3 because someone else ends up invading until it ends up like 4v1 on the host. It's pretty fun if you can hold your own 1v4 because often times the other guy is shit and dies immediately.

I'm currently on my first playthrough, just got to Archives, SL 75. I think I have been emebered for 90% of the game, but only invaded maybe three times. On Xbox One.

Is online just dead, am I unlucky, or all of the above?
>>
>>336666250
Almost all boss weapons are mid to top tier.
Twin prince sword is the best greatsword in the game even with shit scaling for example because of his godly WAs.
The only notable outsider is fucking MLGS, like how the fuck they managed to screw it so hard.

Invasions take priority for coopers and not lone hosts. If you want endless action use dried finger. It's a dumb system and i hope they will change it but at least it's not as retarded as BB's bell maidens as you're still in constant danger of being randomly invaded just with lower chances.

Butcher Knife was broken as fuck. Before a nerf, it had S scaling in 3 stats. After the nerf it still had S in 2, and A in 1.

The issue has to be this one then.

I had no big problems getting the 30 ears from invasions, while my brother didn't get summoned even ONCE.

I think there might be some issues with the matchmaking, because when I was wearing the Way of the blue covenant, I got invaded three times, and every time a blue would instantly get summoned, and one of the times I was hiding with chameleon at the Road of Sacrifices, and the Red killed two blues only to get killed by the third one, fun times.

Best scaling? Winged Spear, Carthus Curved Greatsword, Murakumo, and Astora Greatsword all get an S in faith scaling at +10 with a lightning infusion.

Not sure which weapon is "the best" though.

I fucking love these. I got these and am doing a full Dancer of the Boreal Valley cospaly which has been great to destroy low levels with. Even now when I'm doing PVP, the swords are great since I can hit L1 and get a good sweeping motion to catch rollers and when you want to put them into panic mode, hitting L2 and then mashing R2 will stunlock them good.

and yeah frostbite, it doesnt do much does it.
even poison is poop this time around
>>
>>336670747
It does like 5% worth of HP damage
Halves stamina regeneration
Halves absorption

Not bad if the dude is wearing heavy armor, because if slows down his already slowed down stamina regen, to a snail pace, and also halves his only benefit for wearing that armor class, since poise does not exist.

Good luck finding many dudes wearing heavy armor though.
>>
>>336670753

It has really high AR for a straight sword and a cool unique moveset.

It's slightly slower and longer than other straight swords too

Shame you only see r1 spam. The heavy spinning and overhead are stylish as fuck with an armor that has a cape/mantle. Especially the spinning.

good luck actually applying it against someone that isn't braindead, it takes like 5 hits. after 5 hits they're probably gonna be dead or nearly dead anyways.

You can't infuse it. It has a solid B scaling in strength at +10 and decent base damage.

You can use weapon buffs on it though.

Demon Deer Head is fashionable as fuck. Firewitch is pretty cool too though.

its a good sword, the spinning weapon art is decent.
It deals strike damage, unlike other swords.
So its very good against enemies such as skeletons and armored enemies.

Good weapon for an str build, early game
>>
>>336666250
Farron Greatsword is stylish as hell, but it has absolute shit-tier damage and is completely impractical. Trying to use it in Irithyll made me want to delete the game off my hard drive. It'd probably be cool on a vanity build for PVP though.

i wish it was easier to figure out where every one is. maybe theyll impliment an area glow in the travel menu like ds2, eventually.

some kind of neat 'level me to the hosts level when i invade' system would be neat. so you can just invade anytime.
>>
how do you guys fight passive players when using a heavy weapon? It feels like I can't catch them no matter what combo or tricks I use
I can't trade with them because they will never attack unless they can poke safely
I can't catch them with any attacks because they'll just avoid everything
I can't parry them because they refuse to attack when i've got something that can parry out, and if I try to attack one handed, they'll just parry me

how the fuck do I deal with this, it's so incredibly frustrating to fight

>>
>>336672552
i agree, it's ridiculous how impossible it is to hit someone if they don't want to attack. your only hope is to try and bait a trade somehow, which doesn't work all the time because sometimes they can roll after one attack and not get hit even though you hyper armored through their attack. or pull out an estoc and be an annoying cunt.

wow, didn't know it was so low. but i suppose you're right about that. this game is pretty unblanced desu

2h a great weapon and watch as you never worry about parries ever again. don't ever running R1 if they have a parry offhand.

I'll need to try an Anti build just to see how fucked it is. Might just try to run through the current speedrun route at a reasonable pace.
>>
>>336672348
Well, thanks for the opinion edgelord.
>>
>>336672552
You need to
A. bait them into trade, making them think you're outta stamina so they attack, when you actually have a third or fourth attack out
B.you'll have to use mindgames to make them think its safe to parry, but your r2 is actually coming. Stuff like a quick r2 out of roll, switching between one handed and twohanded roll attacks, and following an r1 with an r2. hell, just mistiming your second r1, delaying it ever so slightly. this will catch parry attempts. And a lot of parry guys dont wear anything besides light armor. So when you hit, they are gonna die.

Shit, I don't think you got more than 3 slabs in DS1 unless you farmed Darkwraiths and they had a crazy low droprate for slabs.
Not that I'm complaining, I always liked playing around with different weapons so getting lots of titanite without farming yourself silly is pretty nice.

Anris is used by literally every speedrunner because it's the highest dps boss weapon with a bleed resin once you pump luck enough for it to out scale a raw Astora sword

It's a very popular weapon and so strong it single handedly defines an entire stat, if you use a luck build without anris you are inferior by default

You can spam equip and unequip it to heal for 2 each timw since it's both hollow and blessed and so you can also kill skeletons. It's twinkling so piss easy to max out. You can resin it.
