Why the fuck is this allowed?
>>338285504
>Not rolling
Yeah, that's why you're getting hit. When you're trying to run past a bunch of enemies, rolling is essential to avoid taking hits from stray attacks.

>>338285504
>>338287094
Welcome to Souls games
Everyone will defend it though, so don't even try Miyazaki can do no wrong
>>338287094
Last time I saw someone bring this up all the replies were basically:
>lmao learn to dodge idiot
You're wasting your time, as >>338287393

>>338285504
>>338287256
>>338287393
>>338287592

yeah, that hitbox is pretty bullshit
that snekman is the true boss of the Ancient Wyvern boss battle
>>338285668
>rolling from hits you can't see
>defending enemies hitting through solid rock like it was air
fromdrones, everyone
>>338287094
That's worse than DS2 tier, but people will defend it because it has Miyazaki as director in the credits
>>338287094
>chugging like a faggot to incoming attacks

>from is still to lazy to have enemies attacks hit the wall

If this would happen in DS2 everyone would say it's total gargabe
>>338287094
I guess we know why this area became optional
>>338289665
Not OP, but I get hit through walls eveywhere.
>>338289665
Most enemies can do that though
It's fucking horseshit, really.
>Ok, managed to run away from that chain fucks
>time for sippy
>suddenly axe blade phased through the wall
>You died
>>338289402
If the game functioned properly, the attack wouldn't be incoming since a wall would invariably block it.

You're probably the same guys that gave DS2 shit for doing the same thing
>>338285504
Did you try gitting gud?
Yeah I love souls but fuck that bullshit where enemies attack you when you are running away. Shit is so lame. They need to take a page from DmC and make it so enemies only attack you when facing them.
>>338287094
There's nothing even wrong with that though, it's a well know fact that time and space is distorted in the souls game and that's what's allowing the axe to pass through the wall. If you don't like it go back to playing Skyrim instead.
>>338291006
Why can't i hit through walls?
>>338291113
You're not powerful enough to be capable of distorting time and space like the enemies.
>>338289271
Nah, DaS2 had those too
>>338291175
But even the rats can do it
>>338291330
git gud xD
>>338291113
You can with a whip.
>>338290925
That's a horrible idea for a game that isn't intended to have baby mode PvE.
They just gotta make good enemies again.
>>338290925
Yeah there should be an option to call time out in the middle of the fight.
So where the fuck was Gwyndolin during the events of Dark Souls 2? We go to Anor Londo, but he's nowhere to be found.
Also, what's the extent of his relationship with Irithyll? Was he captured and brought there, or did he have something to do with its founding?
>>338285504
The serpent men were my least favorite part of the game, hands down. Awful.
>>338285504
You're problem for aggroing an enemy with a ranged attack and then running away.
>>338285504
Wear lighter armor, and spam roll.
Like 99% of PvP.
Don't worry about poise.

It was a good episode, piss off. Though he trivialized the CHAMP with a summon
>>338289665
The area I first died in on my first playthrough was the High Wall, where you find the key to Greirats cell. I was trying to lure out the giant axe enemy but he ended up attacking and killing me through the wall. Snek men are more buggy but this shit happens everywhere
>tfw farming proof of a concord kept
>>338287094
thats because miyazaki and friends still havent found out how to programm their AI that they wont be complete dogshit and repel of every wall if the same rules applied to them
>>338287094
to be completely quite honest with you family, you can dodge those attacks easily enough if you play with headphones on. the audio cues are very telling
admittedly it did take me a while to realise that and i ate a good number of attacks in the meantime.
that being said. it is one of the most stupid areas in the game for shit like that. the snekmen can also do that neck extending shit through walls, and those little fire breathing turtle fucks can be pretty annoying too
good thing the bosses are so easy
>>338291006
>explaining bad hitboxes with MUH DEEP LORE

Funnily enough, i used to hate those guys, now i roll past them in ng+5 like nothing. Almost like i got gud or something.
>>338291113
You can if your weapin's big enough.
>>338292018
during the events of Dark Souls 2? We go to Anor Londo,
????????
>>338292018
You never went to anor londo in DaS2.
>>338290367
Not him but I love the souls series and can reliably avoid those kind of attacks but I will never defend enemies being able to hit you through walls. That is a flaw of the games plain and simple and it's not an issue of gitting gud.
>>338292532
Aren't they making it easier to get summoned as a blue in the next patch?
Might wanna hold off on the farming for a little longer.
>>338292532

Drangleic is not Lordran. It's across the world from it.
>>338287840
>>338292018
you never go to anor londo in 2 familia.
2 is it it's own actual kingdom, not converging worlds like 3. it's where ds1 is, but it's all within it's own timeline, which is way after 1.
>>338289236
>In a battle people annouce their attacks and ask if the timing suits you alright and or whether they should move the attack to better suit your timetable.
>>338292532
I must have played at the exact right time cause I was getting like 16+ blue summons every hour. I could go AFK and just rack up ears while watching something.
>>338292934
The level range could literally be infinite and the covenant would never work. There's like a thousand people trying to help for every 1 asking for help, and then you've gotta factor in the odds of that 1 person also being embered and invaded.
Blue Sentinels were a good idea that will never ever translate properly into the actual game. Like a lot of Dark Souls 2 ideas.
>>338285504
Because "le ebin hard gaem!"
Notice how the best Spuls games are the ones that didn't rely on "muh epic dificulty" to sell well ie. Demon's Souls and Bloodborne.
>>338293504
They worked, just not as the sole purpose of the covenant.
Removing the Blue Eye Orb was a fucking monumentally retarded mistake.

The biggest problem with blues is that Aldrich Faithful and Watchdogs don't cause them to spawn
I've spent hours in Anor Londo with way of blue equipped invaded by 2 aldrich, and a blue never shows up. But the second a red invades, a blue is spawned in seconds. This has happened very consistently to me. It might be possible for a blue to spawn from an Aldrich but I have never seen it happen.
>>338294057
Yet it didn't need to scream "hey guise, prepare to die guise!" to the world like all Dark Souls games do.

Guys, I can't beat Iudex Gundyr :(
>>338293504
>>338294165
Is it not also related to the prioritization of newer accounts or was that fixed finally?
As it stands I think the second anon is right, I've seen Darkmoon appear on reds but never on Watchdogs or Aldrich.
Also on that note, what the fuck is the point in Blue Sentinels and Darkmoon both doing the exact same thing
>>338294495
>pointing out the poelawness is taking the bait
lol
>>338294480
I think you can get that gesture by just having a phantom use it next to you. Try summoning a friend with a password and having them use duel bow
>>338294593
try tapping the r1 button or right bumper to make your character attack.
>>338293260
>>338290367
Enemies aren't supposed to swing through solid fucking walls
I'm sorry, did the term 'Fromdrone' trigger you?
>>338294629
>Also on that note, what the fuck is the point in Blue Sentinels and Darkmoon both doing the exact same thing
same reason there's references to poise all over the game but it does nothing
the game is a rushed mess with too many last minute changes
Archdragon Peak was rushed, like half the game in one way or another, in this case, it's Serpentmen.
Their reach extends through walls like halberd enemies.
I am playing a mage character, an I am a bit torn on what weapon I should use. I'm going to try out the Sage Rapier, as I love them, but I need a titanite weapon. Been using spear so far, but I don't know, don't quite feel it. Duel sabres could be fun. If I get my str up to 14 (13 is needed for rapier) A lot of weapons would open up.
Any thoughts?
The small rock lizards are kind of bullshit, too. Their rolling attacks seem to have a huge sideways hitbox for no reason.
>>338294593

The end, fixed everything wrong with 3 Covenants.
>>338295094
I parry him once or twice but the guy just hits for a third time when I can't parry. Also, clearly my first souls game.
>>338294910
Try to go for a Great Corvian Scythe (farmed from those bird-men in the Road of Sacrifices.)
and make it Crystal, at +1, it has A rank Int scaling and S rank around 8 or 9.
If you can learn to handle it, it makes an amazing weapon. 16/18 Str/Dex tho.
>>338292018
>small tits giant ass
fucking niggers
>>338295524And then after getting sick and tired of shit damage, you switch to an Astora Greatsword. Straight up better in every regard, same stat requirements, free hyper armor during most attacks.
Where the FUCK are people hiding in that area before Anor Londo with the dead giants? I keep getting summoned there as an Aldrich Faithful and I just run around for 20 minutes until I black crystal out.
>>338295773
Usually White Branched/Chameleon hiding in the niche before the stairs leading above Pontiff's room.
>>338295773
common hiding spots in anor londo are near the entrance from pontaf using curl up in a corner so they're hard to see, or up on top of the stairs above the 2 dogs behind the pillars, or if you go up the stairs to the fire shooting guys and turn around there's a ledge pathway that leads back to pontiff
you can also sprint up on top of a couple of the dead giants and it's easy to not see somebody that's using Lay Down on top of the giant corpses. Also if somebody is hiding from you it's safe to assume they're using the obscuring ring so walk up close to every corner to check if they're hiding
>>338295524
>>338295752
Thanks for the input. Might have to go with the gs, as I have never really used one in souls
>>338296427
Yeah, it has an awesome moveset, but there's little things that will piss you off about it.
>>338296427
>>338296680
the damage is not as good as advertised on the stat screen. The damage is split between two elements when infused so the damage is absorbed twice by defense.

Moonlight Greatsword got buffed by like 10% today. The only downside is that greatswords aren't so great.
And before anyone throws out the split damage argument, this thing now has magic AR nearly equaling the Black Knight Greatsword's physical AR at 40/40. Then 130 physical on top of that, plus all the other wacky shenanigans.
Just remember your clutch ring and crown of dusk.
>>338300086
But DS3 is also bad, yet everyone defends it
>>338287094

Do you not read, Anon?
There's massively varied opinions on DS3 for a number of reasons.
And while some are out there in terms of complaints/praise, it's pretty evenly split.
It'll balance out in time once the whole "The newest Souls game!" feel wears off and opinions and ideas cement. But first, we need the DLC.
>>338287094
This plus the fucking weird hitboxes in the game make some areas so fucking dumb I'm almost insulted they shipped it as is.
Still better than Dark Souls II tho.
>>338292967
The 1.5 minutes of confusion was worth it.
>>338300287
Oh cool, you have a time machine. Can I get one of those?
>>338300345
That's pretty late game though, was thinking of something a bit earlier. You mean not so great in pvp? Ive seen quite some Moonlighters lately (I know that isnt much of an inclination)

Why is this so hard for these dumb fucking gooks to fix? Is it really that hard to make it so that weapons can't go through solid objects?
>>338285504
>hits player through wall
>player continues to stand behind several walls
What a retard.
>>338300917
Most greatswords suffer from having damage that's not much higher than straight swords while requiring much more stamina and swinging slower. Also they have to be 2H to get any hyperarmor, unlike ultra greatswords, and their hyperarmor is usually more wonky. Oh and they're very parryable.
That said, a full mage packing a 660 AR weapon at 16/11 str/dex is pretty crazy. I can't see much of a reason to use anything else, even if you don't plan on using it much.
But yeah, either gotta kill Orceiros early or use something else for most of the game.
>>338293518
lol, if anything, das3 does difficulty the best out of any souls game
it starts off easier, but still challenging, and gradually gets harder as you play.
This is in part, a result of it's fantastic act structure, the first part-abyss watchers, the second part-yhorm and the thirt part including lothric castle and archdragon peak.
Whereas dark souls and bloodborne were extremely frontloaded in terms of difficulty, and demons souls and dark souls 2 were all over the place.
>>338287094
What makes me laugh the most is people will give DaS 2 and 3 huge shit for this problem then go on to praise DaS 1 when DaS 1 was just as guilty if not more for this garbage game design.
Fromdrones though, can't be reasoned with.
>>338300345
>check weapons post-patch
>apparently they meant the bkga instead of the crescent axe
>bkga lost 48 AR, and I'm 1-2 stamina shy of being able to swing it twice and roll
Fucking fuck.
>>338301912
>This is in part, a result of it's fantastic act structure
I think you mean it's a result of its linearity. Dark Souls was not actually hard at all at the start, there were just so many options for where you could go that it could end up being hard if you wandered into an area you were not supposed to be in yet. Casual Souls 3 mitigates this by giving you absolutely minuscule leeway for how to progress through the game.
>>338285504

>>338307415

>>338307046
I think killing Dancer early without glitches is far harder then killing Oceiros (or Champ Gundyr and Dragonslayer Armor for that matter too), but yeah that area is somehow even worse and feels more glitchy than Firesage Demon area from DaS1.

Is it best to do the Church or the swamp first? I know some bosses progress stories and such, which route is more optimal?
>>338309067
I prefer to do Abyss Watchers as early as possible to not make them too easy. But you have to get the 5 levels before that.
>>338309067
>Didn't keep the name
Fuck you, change that back to "getting good at Roguelikes."
If you want access to Respecs (and it's not the character you plan to 100% the game with,) you go Church first, since you get 5 a NG/+
Otherwise, get to the Bonfire before Irithyll as soon as possible, there's some good shit in the Catacombs/Smouldering for all characters, from FUGS to Great Chaos Fire Orb, etc.
