>They don't drop slabs
Fuck right off with this garbage
Why did Darkwriaths do it in 1
>>337878151
Memories of those stone pieces of shit knights and statues in 2.
How when you attempt to grind 50 Awestones, you end up with more slabs than fucking awestones themselves.
>>337878352
I'm samefagging but wanted to post on /v/ too, don't hate me
>>337878479
DS2 had too many slabs
Granted you could upgrade armor but still, so many sources for slabs.
>>337878151
You all ready 8 slabs a playthrough how many do you fucking need?
>>337878957
Unlimited
>>337878957
I'm sure some people out there have autism and have a burning desire to get literally everything to +10
>>337878992
fucking why they all ready give you unlimited everything else with the dragon chaser ash
>>337878957
6, no?
>>337879176
Having limited rocks worked in memebourne because there was only 15 weapons pre dlc, it's not the same for DaS 3
>>337879267
1x is given by Siegward of Catarina after completing his questline in Irithyl Dungeon.
1x can be found at the Grand Archives, after pulling a lever on the upper floor, a bookcase on the ground floor will shift its position. Hidden behind the bookcase is a chest containing a slab. The Slab on the floor with the giant wax tub and 3 enemies, and the lever is on the floor below the second Crystal Sage spawn.
1x can be obtained by trading the Coiled Sword Fragment with the Crow.
1x is obtained in Lothric Castle as a reward for killing the 3 golden winged knights at the very top of Lothric Castle. Start from the Grand Archives bonfire and use the elevator. Head towards the Lothric boss fight but immediately turn left to spiral up a staircase. Make your way across the roof to find 3 knights on a dome shaped roof.
1x can be found at Lothric Castle. You must activate the elevator just next to the Lothric, Younger Prince boss fight. If you first access the elevator then ride it all the way down. Get off in a room just before the Dragonslayer Armour boss fight. Trigger the elevator but immediately jump out, a different elevator platform will rise in its place. Ride this platform to find the Titanite Slab in a small niche. Video Location
1x can be found at Archdragon Peak next to Havel-Knight.
1x can be found in Archdragon Peak after killing the Nameless King. Walk ahead of the bonfire and loot the nearest corpse. Video Location
1x can be bought for 30,000 souls from the Shrine Handmaid once all the Cinders of a Lord are placed.
So i'd like to try a DEX/LUK build, what's the best weapon to use? Already did STR and INT (fuck Int though).

Sharp sellswords with scared oath and lightning blade can run into a gank squad and do 1500+ damage aoe off landing a r1 it's funny as shit
>>337878957
I respec'd to ten strength and wasted many slabs
>>337879519
>So i'd like to try a DEX/LUK build, what's the best weapon to use?
Forget DEX, just get your stats up to be able to use a Carthus Curved Sword and use Hollow Infusion. Don't forget to get 5 free levels from Yoel and to bump your hollow level all the way to 99.
>>337879904
I use tears of denial but that sounds better
>>337879924
>Current year
>being a dex fag
>>337880040
r1 WA r2 is a confirmed kill at lvl 90 meta with sharp sellswords and lightning blade it does at least 1300+ damage. With scared oath and llyoud sword ring if you get the first hit off it's game over.
>>337879648
How about dex int? I want to run Crystal magic weapon since it looks so cool.
>>337880245
also acceptable because dex also improves cast times.
>>337880069
You can wiggle out of that grab, one of the few instances.
>>337880349
Really? I never even tried because I've accepted that in FromSoft games, grab = watch this long animation play out and then lose 3/4 of your HP no matter what.
Is there a video?
>>337880748
You can actually wiggle off a lot of grabs in BB, it's just extremely uncommon in DS3. Mash the shoulder buttons instead of the stick.
>>337880748
You've been able to mash triggers on grab to make them last shorter amounts of time since dark souls 1 with mimics
>>337880892
>>337880918
Has this EVER been mentioned in game or was it just something I was supposed to have figured out on my own?
>>337881152
>He didn't mash buttons in panic when he first got grabbed
it didn't take that long to figure out but no they didn't.
>>337881152
Gotta figure it out. Was added in BB I believe. Many grabs in BB can be escaped and one in the DLC actually does MORE damage if you try to escape.
>>337881319
it's been a thing since dark souls, you can mash the triggers to escape the mimics grab quicker.
>>337881152
Here's another secret about Stray Demon: You can cripple him if you hit him hard enough in the legs, they fucking crumble away.
>>337881279
I never mashed the triggers or bumpers, always the face buttons and joysticks
>>337879838
>60fth
>not just 30 for the blade buff
>>337881319
Which one?
>>337881565
The fish people in the Fishing Hamlet. If you try to escape their grab where they beat you with a cleaver they add an extra hit or two.
>>337878830
That's not a bad thing. There is literally no downside to having slabs not being a limited resource. No possible harm could have come to the game if some bumfuck enemy had a 1% drop rate of them.
>>337878830
>first playthrough of DS2
>end up with THREE FUCKING SLABS before I got even one chunk
fucking ridiculous
Are there tights in this game? I'm doing a cosplay build and the character uses tights. It's either that or tight fitting leggings.
>>337878957
Quality 40 STR/DEX build fag here.
I like to use a lot of different weapons which is why I always go quality.
I had to go to NG++ to upgrade most of my shits.
>>337883113
>>337879838
>Tfw i ran through NG++ and had so many points i just invested in vitality, since im a melee onry fag
>after 30 or so points, i was able to cosplay as THE CHAMP
In the long run, it was kinda worth it.
>>337883431
level?
And you still needed the havel ring no?
>>337883113
You can do just fine with +9 weapons unless you are real OCD about it.
>>337883560
I am, that's the problem.
Also, when I try out a weapon and start to REALLY like it, I want it at its best potential.
>>337883662
Well then slug threw ng+ faggot 8 play pre playthrough is a lot
>>337879397
Any Layer 3 or 4 boss of a Depth 5 chalice dungeon could drop a Rock in Bloodborne.
>>337883662
If you're using 8 different weapons and then finally decide that the 9th one is actually your favourite, then it's your fault, not the game's.
>>337883512
You don't need Havels, you just need about 60 VIT and the Prisoners Ring, which you should be wearing anyway since you're cosplaying THE CHAMP
>>337883512
level 140, but by 120 you should be able to equip it. Maybe even at 100 if you push it and sacrifice some hp, even at NG, since havel's +1/2 are shit, so are the ROF +1/2. I did not used the broken chain ring or whatever, since that one reduces damage absorption.
>only 8 slabs
Fucking why
>>337884072
>Needing more then 8

>>337884494
>>337884628
>Upgrading shields when they do nothing
It's called having 8 main go to weapons for any situation while all the others are at +9 or 4. Even then both +9 and +4 do good damage. If you really wanted a build that needed more you hit ng+ since you'll probably need plus ring anyways. Also why did you delete your first post faggot?
>>337883759
>>337883896
NG +10 weapons: Great Machete, Yorm's Great Machete, Black Knight Great Axe, Black Knight Glaive, Red Hilted Halberd, Drang Hammers, Gundyr's Halberd.
NG+ +10 weapons: Gotthard Twinswords, Washing pole, Dark Sword, Onikiri and Ubadachi, Exile Greatsword, Estoc, Smough's Great Hammer, Tailbone Spear.
NG++ +10 weapons: Gargoyle Flame Spear, Hollowslayer Greatsword, Black Knight Sword, Wolf Knight's Greatsword, Fume Ultra Greatsword, Profaned Greatsword, Farron Greatsword, Astora Greatsword.
I'm thinking on going to NG+++ to fully upgrade even more weapons.
Why didn't they just allow unlimited slabs?
There's just no real reason. It'd make more sense if they made more use of NG+ like in DS2.
>>337883113
Quality is pretty much the best way to go for a first playthrough, especially since you're not gonna know the specific requirements for items usually
bro you gotta buy the dlc to get the slabs
>>337884780
>Black knight weapons
>Great Machete and Yhorms Machete
Your own fault you wasted those slabs
>>337884803
Because fuck everyone
>>337884908
>Implying Black knight weapons aren't amazing
Great Machete is my go to PVE weapon, and Yhorm's Great Machete is amazing in PVP (if you don't use it like a retard).
Couldn't you only get two blood rocks in Bloodborne?
>>337884736
>all the others are at +9 or 4
But that's retarded and inefficient. Your other weapons now underperform solely because you are forced to manage within an arbitrary limit in resources.
I feel they did this specifically to force people into NG+,because it lacked any other incentives other than the increased difficulty and small rign upgrade.
The first post was missing the " > " in the first part. It wouldn't have made any sense.
adventures with my weaponfu
>>337885118
1 in the main game. 3 in chalice dungeons. 1 in the DLC. infinite from the shop for 60 insight. (which is a lot)
Holy shit, didn't think it was a single-playthrough drop.
Too bad the dude hits like a truck in NG+ and the Lothric castle knights are most likely nightmarish in comparison.
>>337884865
I swear they're going to do this.
>DLC will add slabs in the new areas
or even worse
>DLC adds way for unlimited slabs
Basically, pay up or no slabs for you
I need a better source of chunks. I'm bored of grinding the fat angel guys and spending all the souls I've earned buying chunks.
>>337885171

Nigger what +9 weapons can still push 450+ damage it doesn't need to be in the 500 or 600s to be viable unless you have pure autism or playing in the 125+ meta.

But it still allowed for infinite rocks.
That's not even hard. Just keep grinding an easy first level chalice boss. Since the game doesn't have many weapons, I'd say it'd only take you a day to farm for all the weapons you wanted to upgrade.
>>337885267
Though they patched the Blood Rock into the insight shop after the game released.
Maybe they'll do the same for DaS3.

The whole concept of invading is not supposed to have a ton of etiquette rules based around it to make it "fair" for the host, the entire concept is supposed to be stacked in favor of the invader to an extent so that they're actually intimidating and something that makes you shit your pants while you're trying to play and get through a level. If you want rules in PVP do a fight club.
>>337885761
Fuck you m8
I've earned the trust of many other invaders and could honestly count the amount of non-Mad hostile invaders on my hands. Feels good man.
All these faggots mad cause my weaponfu is objectively the most skill based weapon in the game. lmao
>>337885814
That was an accident too. She scared me
If the jump from +9 to +10 isnt that significant then why the hell do they limit the slabs so much?
It's just a baffling design choice.
>>337886186
The jump from +9 to +10 may be not that much, but the one from +4 to +5 is fucking huge.

>>337885761
>not uniting under the common goal of ruining the lives of shitters who need to summon

and under all circumstances it is number #1 priority to fuck over all people that summon
at all times
>>337886376
I feel like sunbros that invade tend to side with the host but maybe that's just my cognitive bias, because I hate sunbros desu
>>337880069

I invade as one on almost every character and I hate any host with summons with a passion, never seen any other sunbro side with a host either

Anyone?
>>337886852
Well I don't keep up with the meta so I apologize if I have stumbled upon something I shouldn't have. Anyways, it seems like a great weapon for gank spanking. I'm also not one for honor dueling so I only ever use it for random invasions. I'm honestly bored of the game and can't even bring myself to beat the game even once. This is the most fun I've had playing the damn game, so I'm gonna keep doing what I do and drink the tears of salty hosts and their platoon of summons.

Or has that shit changed?
>>337887331
>no. go away
I'm saying this for you mate, I parry bait the shit out of the fags who try to use it on me.
Also you need to learn to run stop and attack normally instead of using the running attack here >>337885193 you could have easily do the 2 hits combo on both of them instead of the running attack, it's very important that you learn how to do it since you can bait the people who would try to parry your running attack.
>>337887396
And someone with good critical thinking would have seen the red fleeing without attacking and would have guessed that he was definitively followed by a common enemy.
>>337887452
Quality has always been 40/40 since DeS, no?
>>337887718
IIRC you would 27/40 in DaS with double scaling due to the str bonus when 2 handing, as you get diminishing returns beyond 40.
>>337887718
>I'm saying this for you mate, I parry bait the shit out of the fags who try to use it on me.
I honestly didn't know what the running R1 was for the weapon. I just started using the weapon an hour ago, but thanks for the input.
>Also you need to learn to run stop and attack normally instead of using the running attack
I'll keep that in mind. I very rarely see people going for parries in random invasions anways. Everyone's usually in a panic so they either turtle or R1 spam.
>>337885081
My first character I made when DS3 was released used Heavy Great Machete to beat the game. It's such a good weapon.
>>337886169
>Nothing but R1 spam
This isn't your weaponfu, you don't even know how to use it. You probably just googled "BIGGEST ATTACK # DARK SOULS 3/GANK WIN WEAPON" then said 'yeah, this is my weaponfu, totally'.
>>337888023
Yes, but in 3, it's 40/40 now since two handing only ups "virtual" strength. Two handed movesets now just have a "scaled up" attack to compensate for 2 handing, but you don't actually gain the amount of AR you would have from just having 40 real strength.
>>337888441
>This isn't your weaponfu, you don't even know how to use it.
I haven't lost an invasion thus far, so clearly I'm doing something right. The reason I started using the weapon was because I saw someone send a phantom flying off of a ledge with the two handed R2.
>>337885270
>anything being difficult in ng+

>>337888358
Mah nigga.

Dumb shit.
>>337888942
DaS2 literally does not exist.
>>337880748

But I just played it today. Do I not exist?
>>337887225
There's a Rock in each type of depth 5 random dungeon. 1 in Pthurmu, 1 in Loran, 1 in Isz.
There can only be 1 Rock per dungeon type, if you make a random dungeon that would have had a Rock but you already got one from that type of dungeon you get something else in the chest instead.
People have found the quickest and easiest dungeons with Rocks and you can just use thier glyph and get them easily.
You also get 1 in the Main game, 1 in the DLC and 2 infinite sources.
1) 60 Insight from the store, expensive but not too hard to grind out.
2) The final boss of any Depth 5 dungeon, you can easily save scum if you are confidant in beating the boss easily.
>>337885458
you are one of those faggots who summons help aren't you
>>337888654
The weapon itself is literally one of the highest if not the highest unbuffed AR in the game. That coupled with the fast hyper armor with a great axe and the phantom range on this particular weapon, means it doesn't take a genius to do well with it. So it isn't surprising you haven't lost. But that still doesn't make it your weaponfu, you aren't even doing anything nice with it beyond R1 spam. Most people can win with their weaponfu with style or flair. I mean there is literally a combo it can do to hit for over 1300 that looks neat aesthetically and lands easy but nah. Just R1 spam.
>>337888942
It's actually pretty negligible. You can try with the Sage Ring since it ups your "virtual dex" by 30 in the case of cast times. It hardly does anything, really. I mean yes, you can tell it is faster, but the miniscule change will never feel like it made a real difference.
>>337889134
What's dumb is that Attunement makes more sense for it. It would make it seem that you have a better understanding of magic and, thus, you can cast faster.
It doesn't make sense that faster hands would magically allow you to cast spells faster.
It feels like they took every fucking improvement that DaS II had and threw it out the window, and for some reason still refused to go back to DaS I poise.
>>337888268
Keep in mind that, your rolling attack AND your running attack can be parried.
1h R1 and R2 can be parried.
2h R1 and R2 can't be parried.
You should be able to parry a parry. Like you keep parrying each other back and forth until one of you fucks up the timing and loses.

master vitality player here, i don't know about gundyrs but you can do havels with about 55 vit. pic was with regular havel's + favor i think, could probably drop down to 50 vit or so.
>>337885270
the single one near the Dragon Barracks bonfire is pretty easy to farm

>>337893028
>568 AR in +5
Fucking hell, I miss Dragon Tooth's moveset in DS2, I fucking hate the moveset of DS3.
>>337893476
the dragon tooth and great hammers in general are 100% disappointing. worst range, slowest attacks, the damage is okay, but that's not good enough. and then all of your attacks are just over the shoulder vertical smashes. playing as havel was suffering. someone with a fast weapon can start an attack after you, hit you in your hyper armor phase, and still have time to roll out.
>>337893028
>over 70%
Literally useless.
>>337883431
Isnt vit useless?
>>337893784
>missing the point
good luck wearing havels and fast rolling
>>337893814
more or less. might be more useful to put points in vit after 40 vigor or so but i'm just guessing.
>>337893784
With a greatshield you could basically be rooted to the the ground and be fine.
>>337893586
I know right?
Compared to DS2 fucking fast as hell 1H R1 and how the 2H R1 would speed up the pancake R2 was awesome to trick people to attack you, I fucking loved the Dragon Tooth in DS2 it was easily one of my top 5 weapon in the game.
In DS3, all Great hammers have the same shitty and FUCKING SLOW moveset.
I fucking miss so much Gyrm Great Hammer and Chickenwing Spin R2...
>>337893946
you're right, up until it comes time to actually hit them with the worst weapon class in the game.
What's a good armorset to go with the Morion Blade? Can I get Yuria's stuff?
>>337893901
You could've just put 5 more points in vit, wear the prisoner's chain and upgrade your havel's ring.
>>337894054
Yes.
>>337893946
>>337893901
Wow, must be fun being a hammer-turret.
>>337879441
Oooh, so that's what that lever in the Archives did.
>>337894139
wearing the prisoners chain would defeat the purpose of wearing heavier armor. also, the points invested elsewhere are pretty much as low as they could safely go. 40STR is needed for the weapon, 27 vig is bare minimum for not getting killed in one combo, and with this big piece of shit weapon you need 4 swings to have a chance of doing damage.
>>337894201
it really isn't, because when the enemy figures out you can block everything he's not going to waste his time and is just going to wait for you to make a mistake.
>>337894428
You can also use the greatshield as a weapon.
Really they're one of the best PvP weapons in the game. Unparryable attacks that also block.
>>337894674

You're a shitter
does having the new game plus rings limit pvp or something? it sounds infair that someone could have an advantage no matter how slight so idk
>>337894674
honestly the greatshield is probably a better weapon than the dragon tooth.
>>337894979
no, and NG+ is also piss easy. no extra enemies or anything, just slightly more damage and health for enemies.
>>337894823
I'm doing a moonlight run now.
How'd you diviy the stats? min req str/dex and full 50 int?
>>337895029
I'm basically already halfway through it, and the ebemies are definitely easier
>mfw From will let you buy unlimited slabsIn the final DLC
>>337895087
min str/dex and 60 int, i put 30 in attunement (gives you 5 slots but honestly you prolly need just 4 if youre doing just pvp, 4 is 24, 30 for 5 slots is fun though for having shit like chameleon and random spells for fun)
and the rest i put into vigor, i put 15 in faith to get tears of denial

What about rings? I'm assuming you're using shit like the Sage's Ring, Bellowing Dragon Ring, and Magic Clutch Ring.
>>337894823
Instead of the R2, it was the perfect opportunity to use the L2.
The L2 has hyper armor right?
>>337895521
I've got a better idea. You find a slab in a perfectly safe and empty room but picking it up triggers Navlaan style invasions until you return it with you using it or failing to return it meaning you'll constantly be invaded by the NPC until you go into NG+.
>>337895557
sage ring, bellowing dragon, young dragon, magic clutch
candlestick on the offhand, and dusk crown
>>337895560
it does, i like using the R2 more cause it fires a projectile (the L2 just explodes where you thrust) and it uses durability instead of FP

its pretty rare to catch people with homing crystal mass, feel like they either lagged or dont know you can easily just run left or right to avoid them
>>337895883
You should really have your staff on your left hand Anon, being able to cast Farron Flashsword when people roll on your left to dodge your 1h R1 on your MLGS is basically free damage for you.
>>337895756
How about we have him drop from the ceiling behind you? Oh my god that's such a great idea let's use it in every single area at least once!
But on a serious note, Navlaan was a cool idea that along with a few cool/good ideas were straight up ignored.
>>337895883
Would the Scholar's Ring be better than the Young Dragon ring?
Man Serpent Hatchet and Lucerne is a fun combo, really enjoy the move sets on both. Won about 3 matches in a fight club before a BKG put me to rest.
>>337896085
ah thats actually a good idea, it was a habit of casting with the candlestick out
>>337896146
it might be actually, shouldnt be too hard to test the damage

On PS4 at SL120 I fight often some magic build and the people who does that are really fucking annoying to deal with.
>They spam magic at long range
>They attack with MLGS at mid range
>They spam Farron Flashsword at short range if you dodge their MLGS
Fucking pain in the ass.
>>337896420
i only got to SL104 today and from the pvp i did, best way to counter these builds id say is play patiently, they just wanna get huge damage from one of the spells and then chip you off, all the spells are easily telegraphed and easy to dodge as long as youre not rolling into or away, MGS is easy to punish after swings like any UGS and flashsword is only dangerous if youre about to die anyway, just gotta know they're running on limited FP
>>337896420
i'd rather deal with that than crystal rapier cunts that just run away and poke you every once in a while if you chase and fuck around with magic as soon as you stop chasing. i can deal with either of these things just fine but both at the same time is just a fucking chore if the guy is good at rolling. normally i would stick on his ass and catch him in a roll but if you stick around too close you're going to get poked.
>>337896831
fuck rapier/estoc shitters that poke once and run away and just chip away at you, even worse when they have a greatshield
if youre good youll be able to parry one of their pokes otherwise goodluck
>>337885280
>Liking game enough to want/need more than 8 slabs
>not going to buy the DLC
???
>>337880069
Can someone confirm something?
Does the Stray Demon's legs explode if you deal enough damage to them? I was killing it once and one hit from death a big rock exploding effect happened and it seemed to have fallen to the ground and lost its legs. By the time it happened and I noticed it and thought about it I'd already pressed the button for the killing hit, so I never actually saw what it was.
>>337900092
yeah, but i usually end up killing him before that happens.
>>337900092
>exploding knees
yes, yes you can do that. use a hammer, get him to sub 100 hp.
>>337889619
>been using Lothric Knight Great Sword two handed for weeks
>just now realised I can't be parried
All those wasted minutes being cautious around parry fishers.

I loved the BKGA in DS1. Why the fuck did they change the BK weapons in DS2 so they used faith/intelligence?
>>337906051
Because DS2 was shit
>>337906051
Because they have innate fire damage iirc, really tiny bit though
