what do you do in dark souls 3 now that it's been out for almost a month?

I just finished my 4th playthrough and can't think of what else there is to do. Need inspiration. Also post your fashion if you want.
>>

nothing, just do fight clubs

game needs a fashion souls dlc dump

Just get to Farron Keep and PvP eternally with SL 20.
The game was great, but I had the most fun invading/defending people at road of sacrifices.

I keep doing PVP at the Road and the Cathedral of the Deep.

I recently finished a level 50 Bazuso cosplay build, and it's been a blast cooperating and invading as the 30 Man-Slayer

About to start my first playthrough. I feel lost, should I play a DEX build or STR or QUALITY?
pls give me beginner tips, should I use a NPC guide?
>>
>>336814729

Farron Keep? You don't mean the swamp do you?

Cathedral sounds good. I spend most of my PvP time at Grand Archives so would be good to switch it up.

like with the Pyro glove it says "Scales with Faith and Intelligence", does that mean I have to level both?
Trying to make a Hexer and I know that's how dark spells worked in 2.

>>336815157
Yes. Pyro damage soft-caps at 40/40 INT and FTH.
>>336815025
Play whatever you want. Use a shield. Don't be over 70% equip load.
>>
>>336815360
Good. I'll get to 40/40 then. Thanks.

Only thing that sucks is that I'm gonna have to use a staff, talisman and a glove to cast the hexes. Could be annoying.

I've done NG and NG+ as my first character, it was pretty fun but I wanted more challenge from NG+.

Also did a playthrough as a different character, a spellblade. It was a different experience so it was fun.

I also do a bunch of various forms of PvP with both. Today I white branched and used dried fingers and equipped way of the blue. Shame blues can't fight for shit.

Planning to meet up with a few friends next weekend to do a coop run, each of us cosplaying as one of the bosses.

There's plenty to do in the game, but after 200 hours you're naturally going to get a bit bored. Just replay it after a few months, there are other games out there.
>>
>>336815836
Pyro has a pretty hard drop off when they reach both 40 int and 40 faith. Going from 30/30 to 40/40 is a 15% damage increase on spells. 40/40 to 50/50 is only a 3% increase.

Can I lower my upgrade level by using the bottomless box? I finished the game at around level 35 so I was without multiplayer after catacombs. Now with a +10 weapon I can't find anyone, but I don't want to level up because higher level PvP is borin for me.

Every series is a series where you need to start from the beginning. The only times it's okay to skip stuff like that would be in multiplayer focused games. No need to play Mariokart 7 before trying out 8.

>>336815025
You're likely going to lose most NPCs without a guide, it's quite hard in this game not to.
Tips I can give to you without spoiling much:

>always stay embered after the high wall
>before fighting an area boss, explore it again througly
>don't buy the key the first merchant sells too early, buy it after finishing the cathedral area
>If you join a covenant, don't use their services before beating all the 4 main plot bosses (don't worry, most of their rewards aren't amazing)
This last one is rather specific
>once you find a bonfire in a snowy area after passing through a river, DO NOT go down the stairs and instead explore the rest before doing so.

That's the best I can do without spoiling too much.
>>
>>336817019
So you played Final Fantasy 1 - 6 before you played FF7?

They take place in the same universe, but literally thousands of years apart.

You're objectively costing yourself enjoyment when you play it out of order. Elements of the games are design with a knowledge of the series in mind. How the fuck can you appreciate stuff like Alva invading or Patches coming back or Soul of Cinder's Gwyn Mode without playing the rest of the game? DaS3 IN PARTICULAR is basically designed from the ground up with the idea that you already played DaS1. It's covered head to toe in references and other elements from the first game. If you don't know about the first game, you can't appreciate the third game as much as you should be able to.

Twitch has an incredibly cancerous community, I decided to try watching Peeve once and whenever he lost in a duel the chat would just be full of people shittalking the person who killed him saying that they're the worst player ever and that they're tryhards.

Oroboro is a faggot and his Twitch fanbase are equally, if not more faggy. Don't let it bother you.

In fairness, archdragon peak is kind of easy to miss on a first playthrough.

You need a gesture you get in a room behind an optional boss, and use it in an area from a (possibly) previous level, that you may or may not have even fucking noticed.

At least they put that developer message "gesture required ahead"

If you're having problems like OP you're a normal and should stop playing.

>>336817838
>>336817740
That's what they are in the end, just references. All the souls games play differently and cater to different audiences, people who liked DaS1 might not like DaS2 and vice versa. DeS and Bloodborne are also console exclusive, while DaS is a chore to get running on PC. If you play Souls for the multiplayer aspect, you stay away from the older titles and play 2 or 3 instead. Forcing yourself to play every single game in a series because you "feel it's right" is perfectly okay, but thinking everyone else also should do the same thing is autism

Yeah, by NG+2 all the rings are in the game.
>>
>>336820919
If you want all rings then you have to do the Sirris' and Anri's questline, have maximum rank in Watchdogs, and first rank in Darkmoon and Fingers, then you have to get all the pick-up rings, you can find rings from previous NG on NG+, they don't disappear, just few new show up.
There is 70 normal rings, 21 NG+ rings and 16 NG++ rings.

Blessed infusion sucks dick. Just use sharp on any weapon until you get lightning infusions. Astora Greatsword is nice because of the weight and scaling when infused.
Not really sure what other weapons you can use since it's mostly personal preference. I did a str/fth build so I used the Dragonslayer Greataxe after it became available. Before that I was just using large club

How do you deal with parry spammers?

You know the ones, they do literally nothing else than spam parry when you get close, and attacking them from the front is way too risky. Even worse, the ones spamming with caestus. Maybe once ever 30 seconds they will attempt an attack, but it's rare.

I mean this as a character with no real ranged attack options or unparryable attacks, a simple melee character.

Do I just throw firebombs at them or what?
>>
>>336821752
Pretty sure all people from Londor are terrible people. She tries to trick you into killing Orbeck for no real reason, she's a psychopath that tries to manipulate you like Kaathe. You easy are you gullible idiots, someone talks to you pretty and calls you Lord and suddenly they are the good guys?

Then dont get parried you fucking imbecile. I mean you seriously cant beat one person lierally doing the same thing over and over? Just mix up your moves and stop r1 spamming like an idiot. If that doesnt work than just 2H a great sword/hammer/axe and they cant parry you at all.

These are literally the easiest. Just get close, wait for them to pull their parry, then hit them twice. Rinse repeat. If they are being predictable they can be punished for it.

What? I get parried when using a BKGA, 2H. That's precisely what I'm asking, it's slow enough to see it coming, and the caestus parry has a tiny window for punishment.

Nothing. I just asked. You either would or you wouldn't, and it turned out that you wouldn't. I had nothing to lose by asking.

according to who? the fact that there's items that affect the value means that it has to be addressed. People made even less of a fuzz towards ARC in BB and that got fixed immensely in a way that you could keep pumping towards 99 and STILL get significant returns towards Tools, and even changed the functionality of a Tool to add the ability to parry to compensate towards the increasing utility of the BLT stat.

Imo, invasions are much more fun than fight clubs. I love gank spanking and there is just generally more hilarity from random invades as opposed to fight clubbing.
>>
>>336823984
Because poise is actually entirely functional, it's simply turned off by a single value. It means the devs intended to use poise, tested it, and realized it just didn't work with the way the game was balanced
the only problem is that the stat is still in the game, but I'd rather have a useless stat than a stat that breaks the game wide open

Actually, compare DaS1 Havel to this Havel, the armor has almost a quarter of it's original poise.

no. i love the thrill of being invaded or invading someone. but i really got tired of how covenants focus on PvE more then PvP, example any fucktard can just put on way of the blue, summon 2 friends, wait for invasions, then have 1-2 blues help them while you're by yourself. the balance is all wrong but the ideas are there. if they really wanted invasions to be imo balanced they need the mad man covenant to have the option to have OTHER mad man summon and either aid or fight against you.

so far pve covenants have 3 factions that help each other out yet nothing in pvp that can have any form of co-op for intense 3v3 fights ect

Not him. Full time generally refers to a 40 hour a week day job. A full time student is taking at least 12 units and, presumably, spending their days with school. You can have a job and be in school, but saying you're both full time is weird. Like, you might work full time and take night classes or online courses, or whatever -- but the idea of having "a full time job plus full time school" doesn't really make sense.

Not that anon, but usually full-time means salaried at 40 hrs/week plus benefits for a job. For school, full-time is a certain number of credit hours.

No, full time doesn't mean "the minimum credit hours to not be kicked out". That means "I barely go to my university, and I skip tons of hours".

Alright, I am honestly surprised that Sorcery is fairly effective since everyone was saying it was shit My Sorcerer staff is +4 and it still deals a good punch with GHSA and Flashsword, the chant skill gives a good amount of returns as you progress, it's nearly insignificant early, but it add 100-150 per arrow later on, which makes a huge different in dealing with some enemies.
