>>122110149After the Chosen Undead defeats Manus, Manus' soul / being splinters off into fragments, full of Manus' negative emotions. These fragments formed into the shape of women, and their only instinct was to be drawn to the nearest source of power, being the Kings in the land. The four fragments wed each King and attempted to steal their power and overthrow them. All but one had succeeded, whose King was so bold and charismatic, that she actually felt an infatuation for him, and gave up her lust for power.

I had it installed before, and it fixed my game, but now I have massive frame dips and stuttering. I can't pvp like this, I keep running into shit.
>>122113687
All I did was Install it. Set it to my retarded native resolution, "unlocked the frame rate" and capped it at 35, and disabled the in game AA
It just werks I guess. Before I had almost constant frame dip. Now It pretty much never happens.
>>122113945
Okay, I changed my native resolution to match my game's resolution because every other resolution is blurry and shitty. Now everything's sharp as fuck. I set the FPS limit to 35 as you said, and now everything's looking good. Thank you, anon.

Looking Glass Knight wasn't human either.
>>122115376
depends. when on a normal run, i deal with them after anor londo, as expected.

well he also doesn't move like a human
Is everyone replaying DaS now or what?

>look at footage
>big fucking watermark
>>122118513
i too feel like ppl talking way more about it lately
The real problem with the dudes in armor (apart from how many of them there was) is that they all had the same movesets and boring designs.
Even the best of them like Alonne look really boring compared to something as distinct as Artorias and Gwyn.
The dancer boss from DS3 looked pretty interesting as far as I could tell.
>>122118682
it comes and goes. there are quite a bit of posts normally, but periodically the shitposting is so loud it overshadows anything
>>122118960
Shit posting truly should be a bannable offense

These are the warrior/knight bosses in Dark Souls 2, with some things outside of Matthewmatosis claimed three types of attacks:
1. Old Dragonslayer (dark magic drop, projectile, AoE, impale grab)
2. Giant Lord (foot stomp, horizontal slash, slashing sword at his own feet)
3. Smelter Demon (AoE, core flame, buffs, leap attack, and first Souls boss to have all of his attacks able to be executed at varying speeds - tricking up players timing).
4. Pursuer (unique impale causing curse, unique dark orb attack, projectile attack, shield bash, etc.)
5. Throne Watcher and Defender (Watcher has projectile attack + AoE + leap attack, Defender has shield bash + unique impale attack, both can cast healing miracle, both can buff mid fight, etc.)
6. Velstadt (kick attack, unique dark magic attack, unique buff, a strafing-counter attack, and a four hit combo)
7. Vendrick (unique projectile cursing attack, leap attack)
8. Dragonrider (shield bash)
9. Looking Glass Knight (three unique lightning attacks, leap attack, multiple 4-5 hit combos, shield summon, shield bash, strafing counter-attack)
10. The Lost Sinner (can parry, can backstab, unique leap attacks, 4 hit combos)
11. Ruin Sentinels (shield throw, 360 spin, several unique leap attacks)
12. Flexile Sentry (2-3 unique grab animations, 4 hit combos, spin attack, the unique scenario of having a dual torso both dual wielding different weapons)
Does the Server's R2 hit through shields like the Shotel? Its seems to do regular damage when I do so, and the end of the blade is curved, so I was just wondering.
>>122118720
The dancer does have moves specially so you don't just sit on his ass the entire time. Like when he plunges the sword into the ground and stirs its back behind him. It also looked a lot harder to stay close to him when he uses two swords.

>>122123097
It's gonna take a bit longer than that, no master key so I'll have to go through the elevator in the forest
>le guys in armor maymay
Demon Souls had almost 50% humanoid bosses, you dense faggots.
It was always a part of the Souls games and they are usually the best fights, due to the gameplay.
I take 20 armored dudes over 1 uninspired giant spider boss.
>>122123243
Many of them work. You could also do Alucard if you felt like it. Longsword with Judgement set, maybe
>>122123453
I'm just asking becauseI've never actually played a Castlevania
>>122123243
>It's gonna take a bit longer than that, no master key so I'll have to go through the elevator in the forest
not really. unless youre a bit rusty, it shouldnt take too long to rush to andre and from there into the valley.
>>122123510
No biggie. You could just watch AVGN's vids to get a peek into the oldest ones, before Symphony of the Night, which started the 'metroidvania' game type. They're all heroic, and fight against evil, and they make sure to kill the evil. Simon's the most well known Belmontaside from Dracula himself, although he has seven or so different designs.
In keeping with Castlevania classic, your whip is shit, and you'll be using items/miracles for your real damage
>>122121392
Passed the first boss. Just got to Firelink. Don't remember anything about this game. On my way to the giant crow, I found a nest with talking eggs wtf. Do I need to find it's parents or something?

Just looking at the wiki I was gonna go with Leon because he seems to have a plethora of items to pick from only problem I'm having is choosing the correct Dark Souls attire to fit

Anyone mind dropping Sif's soul for me on PC? I'm SL111 and need it to finish the Knight's Honor achievement without going NG++
>>122125042
maybe Black leather boots, Elite knight gauntlets. Not sure about chestpiece
>>122123382
And I take 1 uninspired spider bosses over 20 armored dudes. We've been over this, it's not that they're humanoid, but that they're all samey and boring. Velstadt, Pursuers, Fume Knight, Dragonslayers, Alonne, Smelter Demon all might as well be the same guy as far as I remember. They all mush together as just big guys in armor.
Compare those to the humanoid bosses in the previous games and notice how all of those have memorable characteristics that make them stand out between all the others.
>>122125194
If you're going to get the soul illegitimately, you might as well CE it in.
>>122125110
great game but not anything like souls, also very difficult
Can I seed h-mangas and run h@h while fighting in the arena?
>>122125515
But you remember all of them. Humanoid bosses are more memorable because they're usually better in quality. Demon's Souls had amazingly creative bosses, but they were all pretty shit except for the humanoid ones
>>122125579
try and see what happens
>>122111163
If PS3, then sure
>>122125579
Yeah.
>>122125515
>Drecksouls 2
There's your problem.
I was talking about people sperging over humanoid bosses in every game. They are simply retarded.
If DS 3 will have fights on the level of Artorias or Alant, i would gladly take 90% of boss fights being humanoids.
>>122125286
Chester's?
Silver Knight Armor?
Dingy Robe?
Black Cleric Robe?
>>122125653
>But you remember all of them.
Not really. I've been playing the game recently but they haven't left much of an impression. I had to do some googling to give you examples.
First time playing DaS on PS3, does shield + sword run good?
Also what stats should I go for? I got the Black Knight sword and it looks good, going 20str 18dex wont ruin shit for me?
>>122126263
>black knight sword
enjoy ezpz game from now on
>>122125754
>the lagstabs got worse in ds2
>>122126263
Sword + Shield is fine
Black Knight Sword can carry you through the entire game your first play through
>>122125515
Buddy go ahead and list some of the most well known of the souls series
>Garl Vinland
>False King Alli
>Old Hero
>Penetrator
>O&S
>Artorias
>Gwyn
The only really popular one that breaks the mold is Sif, the most well known and memorable bosses in the series are mostly humans, giant assholes with hitboxes for days and poor animations are rarely considered to be the best.
>>122126263
>ruin shit
you mean mess up your build? no unless you plan on rocking crystal soul spear as well. sword and board is solid. you will also want lots of end and vit
>>122125515
i think you're being unfair here
velstadt - big golden fucker with a bell hammer
pursuer - floating fucker with red eyes
fume knight - ash fucker who sets his sword on fire
dragonrider - fat red fucker with a small head
alonne - weeb fucker with a ponytail
smelter demon - fiery fucker with horns
they're all pretty distinctive
I installed gedosato but I can't select anything higher than my native resolution in the game. How does this shit work? I set what I wanted in the settings and put DS2 on the user whitelist. What else do I need to do?
>>122126643
They are literally all the same.
Uninspired and generic as fuck. You could cut all of these from the game and it wouldn't change a thing.
B-Team at its best.
>>122126505
Did you not read his post?
He said "look at the humanoid bosses from previous games, and they all have something that stands out" and it's true. In DaS2 all the humanoid bosses are fucking shit. The only ones that stand out are Lost Sinner and Ivory King and the reason they stand out more than the others is their boss room and slightly different movesets.
>>122126505
>Gaping Dragon
>Quelaaq
>Sanctuary Guardian
>Priscilla
All popular and memorable. Priscilla is a humanoid but clearly not the Dudes In Armor™ type we've been talking about.
>>122125996
Any would work alright. Chesters, maybe.
I just fought The Rotten for the first time. Was I over-leveled for the fight or is he just a pushover? The fire pits in the arena were more dangerous than he was...
>>122126643
He's not talking about armor or aesthetics ya dingus.
>>122127126
He´s just really easyLike Nito was
>>122127126
He has probably the easiest attacks to avoid in the game.
>>122127117
>>122126505
Just proves again that Demon an Dark are infinitely better than B Souls.
The only people who play it are twitch fags who needs it for donations from autists.

>>122127008
Continuing on about his assertion that these knight/warrior bosses in Dark Souls 2 all have similar move sets including a gap closer, 2-3 hit combos, and overhead slams, let’s get some perspective. Garl Vinland for Maiden Astraea’s boss fight in Demon’s Souls basically uses one type of move over and over, overhead slams. Old Hero has a couple of two hit combos, a charging gap closer, and an overhead slam. False King Allant has 2-3 hit combos, gap closers, and a few of his attacks involve overhead swings. Same with the Penetrator. Going into Dark Souls, Artorias, Ornstein and Smough, Four Kings, Iron Golem, Gwyn, etc. have these kind of attacks as well.
These kind of attacks are common to ALL knight/warrior type bosses, plus many of the quasi humanoid bosses in all the games. The thing is, there are different kinds of 2-3 hit combos, different kinds of gap closers, and different kinds of overhead attacks, and bosses in DS2 have many of their own unique animations and moves outside of these confines Matthewmatosis places them in. DS2 bosses combos, gap closers, and overhead attacks can act and look different based on what hand or hands they are using, what kind of weapon(s) they are wielding, how they are holding those weapons (underhand, overhand, etc.), their overall body type, their style of combat, etc. Plus, why is having a gap closer, 2-3 hit combos, and an overhead slam suddenly a BAD thing, especially since all the knight/warrior bosses in previous games used them as well? Why is it suddenly a problem now?
>>122127304
the rotten can actually hit you
>>122127480
>Why is it suddenly a problem now?
Because people insist on starting shitstorms about how much they hate DaS2 every single thread
>>122127480

Probably the ONLY one that does not have a direct comparison in 2, you can't claim that one set of these is relevant and different from dudes in armor and the other one is not

>>122127480
Nice samefag
>>122127480
>comparing those das bosses to false king and an npc
Jesus fucking christ you are desperate.
Iron golem stands out because of his whole schtick. He has a varied moveset which involve multiple attacks with his axe, a grab, and a sonic boom/shockwave from his axe at range. What makes him interesting is his area which is really small and the way you fight him (hit his leg, then his other leg, then his arm, or you can just attack one leg the whole fight like a braindead moron).
Artorias is memorable because of the amount of lore is about him, the sad way he died, the way his character looks as he has been taken over by the abyss. He also has a lot of moves, is one of the fastest bosses, and can power himself up (if you let him).
O&S is interesting because it's a 2 person fight and when one dies they gain the powers of the other. They both have a huge variety of moves in their moveset.
Four kings have more moves than most bosses in Dark Souls 2 and even though it's one of the shittiest bosses, it's still better than "giant dude in armor with fire attacks" or "giant dude in armor that kinda hops around".
Gwyn is the only uninteresting boss you mentioned.

Stop spamming your shitty HUD redesigns.
They look and always will be looking absolutely atrocious.
>>122128351

>>122128413
You really can't you literally said that he is intersting because of his moves all of which follow the archetype, you might want to learn to type instead.
To add onto your retarded point.
>Artorias doesn't count because of Lore, powering up and fast moves
lets exclude Allonne, Ivory King and not apply the exact same reason
>O&S is good because one power up after the other dies
>lets exclude 2 Tigers because it does the exact same thing
>Lets exclude Darklurker because it is better in every way
>4 kings has shitloads of moves and doesnt count as a giant guy in armor because he is a giant guy in armor
Let's just ignore every non human boss of DS2 because fuck it need to make a retarded point that doesn't even mean anything
But hey why bother, you are literally so far in denial that you will actually say "Well THIS giant dude in armor doesn.t count! He is a giant dude in armor but he just doesn't count!"
is this accurate?
>>122128174
>Gwyn is the only uninteresting boss you mentioned.
And even he doesn't look like the others in the game.
Now if he was Boss Fight #8 between Armorman and SkinnyGreatswordDude he wouldn't have much effect but when it's the very final fight of the game after 4 Great Lords (who are all very different) and sad music to remind you of the tragic lore you suddenly have a boss battle the players will remember.

I'm ready to admit that he's a pretty good fight, even if I don't care for his splitting gimmick. one point for gryffindor. Too bad most of the game is still dull

Oh you mean those just taken straight from DS1? You mean the fucking Rat Gangbang because yeah that was so fucking exciting. Demon of Song is my favorite of the bunch and he might as well be the Pinwheel of the game.

Keep moving those goalposts anon, first it was "too many knights in armor" then it was "too many knights in armor with slow moves and no good story" now its "too many knights with not good enough character design"
>literal ctrl + c ctrl + v of a previous bossfight
Again you take the least relevant part of it, they are both dual boss fights, in both the bosses are agressive and multiple different moves with combos and in both the other boss powers up if one dies.
But hey move goalposts some more, I'm sure there are some even more superficial things you could harp about like the choice of color or some shit.
>Oh you mean those just taken straight from DS1?
Last Giant
Chariot
Skeleton Lords
Flexile Sentry
Rotten
Covetus Demon
Smelter Demon
Darklurker
Aldia
Go ahead and find me the DS1 bosses all of them were copied pasted from, this should be some interesting mental gymnastics

Keep at it anon, your constant goal post shifting and character attacks sure proved me wrong.
Now you were about to tell me which DS1 Chariot was stolen from right?Can't seem to hear you over all the shit you are so full of!
>>122132582
Three ass demons. Generic demons as bosses

Am i gravelorded forever?
>>122132150
What about her armor set?
>>122131287
You're talking with multiple people, dude. My goalpost has not moved anywhere.
>Last Giant
acts like the giants in DS1
>Chariot
is literally a reskinned Boar
>Flexile Sentry
I've only even encountered this as a normal enemy, guess I missed a boss.
>Skeleton Lords
Three Pinwheels
>Rotten
Nito
>Covetus Demon
Jabba the Hut. You really want to bring up this slug when trying to defend DS2?
>Smelter Demon

>Darklurker
I already gave you this one

no wait I confused this with Nashandra.
Shows how memorable he is

Here we go.Whip cleric here I come
>>122132986
the one time i found it i had already talked to her. it was on a corpse beside the manus portal. i font know if you can get it some other way
>>122133138
>acts like the giants in DS1
Does not but keep thinking that
>>122133138
>is literally a reskinned Boar
I seemed to have missed the circular boar encounter where it breaths magic
Boars are in DS2, chariot is not a boar
>Three Pinwheels
The three pinwheels that spawn an army of skeletons when they die?
Anon please you are streching this shit thinner and thinner by the comparison
>Nito
????
>smelter is dude in armor
So from a list of 9 bosses you manged to find 4 that actually had something which a very drunk grampa who knows nothing about videogames might consider similar, and 0 actual copy pastes.
Well done anon!
Still waiting on a Covetus Demon, Darklurker Aldia and Flexile sentry of Dark Souls 1, after all they are all nonhmonoid enemies so they there HAS to be a DS1 comparison, you literally said so yourself.
Ready to admit that your hyperbole keenjerk reaction was dumb and just let go? No going to keep on trying to worm your way out of sounding like a retard while making yourself even dumber?
>>122133569
Thanks mate, i'll look for it after i beat Manus
>>122133990
>Ready to admit that your hyperbole keenjerk reaction was dumb and just let go?
I've admitted that the moment I mentioned Demon of Song, my point is that there's not enough variation and the little variation there is isn't enough. No need to lose your shit over it.
MOST enemies are either boring dudes in armor with no personality or lazy rehashes of old ones. Chariot is the Boar but can do magic. Skeleton Lords float, shoot fireballs and spawn more enemies, difference being they spawn after one of Pinwheels is dead. Rotten is a big pile of dead bodies that moves slowly and hits you with a giant sword, also does dark magic. Smelter IS a dude in an armor. Covetus Demon and Aldia are slow pieces of shits you have to be an idiot to die to. Darklurker is ok.
Anyone want to help me do Ornstein and Smough, killing Smough first?
Level 42, PC.

Not buying it but it looks good for the price with the game imo.

>Kill Stray Demon
>Use slab to make +15 weapon
>Get Grass Crest Shield on Darkroot Basin
>Summon Solaire
>Wait for Ornstein to do his thrust and dodge it
>Let Solaire distract him
>Hold weapon with two hands and wreck Smough's shit. His attacks arre easy to dodge if you get close, and may even stagger him.
>Solaire will probably be alive and well
>Let him tank Super Ornstein while you carefully hit him with R2 attacks. Watch out for his grab.
If you already know their attack patterns you should beat them easily this way. Even more if you have pyromancy.
someone please explain to me how invading as a member of the bellkeeper's covenant works. I thought all I had to do was put on their ring and it'd do the work and invade for me automatically. I did that and then I get invaded by two other grey spirits, wtf?
>start farming for Black Dragon gear again today
>drop a shield and axe from consecutive kills and another axe minutes later

Spotted the asshole you attacks non aggro enemies.

>>rat gangbang
I don't know, it's kind of an interesting concept to try to spot the different enemy. Like a "where's waldo" of Dark Souls, the Rat Sif was dumb though

Playing the shitty scholar patch for ps3, I have two 70s right now but I'm debating just starting over.
One's a quality build, one is faith/dex. But I'm finding myself wanting to start over and stop playing like it's just des or dks again. Any suggestions for fun builds in 2? What's the level cap people tend to settle on, and what god does /vg/ choose for their ring?
Why are people in full havels drinking estus on the iron keep bridge? where the fuck is the honor?

First playthrough of DS1. Just got to Undead Parish. Cannot for the life of me find the window to riposte the black knight. The overhead swing is unblockable correct?
>>122142809
You can parry all the greatsword swings he uses up there. Just do it the precise moment the weapon comes towards you instead of his arcback.
>>122142874
every swing style? wow, this game is so fun to figure out
>>122142809
Be a cheeky cunt and run to the fire. He'll try to hit you and get fire damage each time until he dies.
>>122143034
The most satisfying ones off the black knights are hands down the sword thrusts and the axeleap. Cool as shit.
>>122143081
Normally I am a cheeser. But I want to try to break that habit.
>>122119541
>No circlejerking at everyboss like DS2
I´m ok with this.
>>122143034
If you want to get good at parrying, a pugilist run will make a master out of you.

A playthrough with minmaxed vit, 1 chaos and 1 lightning cestus will keep you on your toes at all times. I named mine Gene, gave it the flipring and mad amounts of health, mobility and res (yes really). It was one of the most fun things I'd ever done in dark souls, and is still one of my favorite pvp saves for oolacile.
I have a question:
How are red phantom drops calculated?
is it by the number of souls the invader has on them, or is it based on SL?

other people beat it why can't you?
>>122152537
I did, she's a lot easier on a melee run because she is less inclined to use her magic attacks. Pretty hard to dodge when she uses both of them and they both attack you at the same time.
>>122152825
Oh also forgot to mention she was ng+
If I make a hard hitting Str Build that only wears super light armor, am I being clever?
>>122152963
If you can dodge, you can do anything you want.
I just got into Dark Souls: Prepare To Die the other day, and I'm having fun with it. My main problem is that I can't seem to get my logitech dual action controller to be mapped correctly to the game.
x360ce isn't doing the trick for me, and I'm not going to spend $60 on an xbox 360 controller when I have a perfectly good gamepad here.

Is Dark Souls 2 harder to run than the original on PC? The only reason I never bought it on steam was fear that it'd run just as shittily or worse.

It actually runs better.

I'll have to grab it during a steam sale then. I got 1 working at 59.97 with an absurd amount of tinkering but it still had issues in demon ruins/izalith/blighttown. Blighttown was an area that could straight up kick me off the multiplay.

150 hours in DaS1 and that's the first time I've ever gotten a weapon durability warning
does Ricard's Rapier eat through durability quickly with the 6-hit R2 combo or something?
