Does that primordial serpent statue in the entrance of the grand archives an accurate representation? Because their body looks really weird.
can someone explain why you can just talk to the giant shooting arrows at you at the beginning of the game and everything is just suddenly cool between you two?
why caster bosses are so unfun to fight
they always feel like big gimmicky unfair bosses that either are too easy or too hard

Look at shield skill. There are 3 possibilities parry, weapon skill, or shield bash. If you don't like one you can get a weapon skill kite shield from a chest in high wall area very early game with 100 physical defence. If you like parry you can buy a kite shield with parry same stats very early.

I can't even poise through their combo with greatsword weapon arts, their third attack staggers me during wind-up.

I hope they explore his character a bit more in DLC.

I am so confused, and would really like some help. Whenever I die, the framerate of DaSIII goes to like 10 FPS or so, but if I alt tab and alt tab back in, the framerate goes back to smooth 60 FPS with hardly any dips. This just started happening like 10 minutes ago. I didn't do anything different, I didn't change any settings, nothing. What the fuck is causing this?
>>138835396
indeed
I can't git gud no matter how much I try, I can keep rollin rollin rollin but then I can't get any hits in
the combos are crazy and he doesn't even telegraph his sudden poke dashes properly
Are big weapons unparryable or do all the people I'm up against just really suck at parrying?
>invading as abyss walker

So is late game PvP dead? Anor Londo doesn't seem too lively and invading people at Dragon Place Thingo isn't as fun.
>>138835482
Most UGS and Greataxes when 2-handed can't be parried. I love watching people try though.

Giants are friendly
the ones in 2 were not because of their war against King Vendrick (also because you create a time loop in which you are responsible for ending their invasion by killing their leader in the past, this is why the first boss (the last giant) instantly enrages at the sight of you.
Is this a bad time to ask a DAS2 question? I'm at the three stooges, what do? besides summoning. I killed the archer once but I still got my ass kicked anyway

Are there actually any weapons that can cast pyromancies aside from the flames? I have no fucking clue what kind of weapon I want to roll on my pyro, I figure if there's anything that acts as a flame I may as well aim for that.
And does the power of your pyromancies scale off stats based on the flame's scaling in DS3, or is it purely the flame's upgrade level that matters?

there's the flame and then there's the fair ladies hair which doubles for miracles.
that's it, not even the FIRE WITCH halberd/staff thing casts pyromancies, it casts fucking sorcery.
Pyromancy scales off int/faith and upgrading.
remember to wear all 3 pyromancy rings and casting speed ring.

again, for what purpose? The only reason to get Vit is if you plan on hauling a bunch of super heavy stuff around, you should never be hauling a bunch of super heavy stuff around as a pyro.

Yeah, I picked up the halberd thing on my non-magic character and was mad disappointed when it was no good. What are the pyro rings beyond the boost ring the pyro starts with?

>>138836357
So you're using the starting pyromancer armor and hand axe then? Because doing no damage and dying in 2 hits seems like a bad idea. I'll have something like 17 vit by level 120, just enough for my armor and weapons of choice. Knight is better for pure int or faith because it doesn't waste points in the other stat, keeping the low luck, and giving you a great base with vig/vit/end to work off of.

Nameless King = Gwyn's firstborn...
So considering that the weapon-level matchmaking is totally fucked, I think we need a list of the max upgrades available in certain areas. That way lower-level invaders can set up their characters properly.
I'm sad as fuck that I can't just have a SL20 for basically all zones, but I guess Miyazaki just couldn't help sticking his micropenis into PvP matchmaking.
invaders having a massive healthbar disadvantage AND half as many flasks is retarded. Unless the host is complete shit they will never ever lose 1v1 since they can just out trade any damage.

Knight starts with a grand total of 1 more Vig than the pyromancer. and you only need 1 more dex to use a straight sword.
Hell even getting your vig, str, dex and End costs less for you than it costs the knight to get pyromancer equivelant int/faith and attunement.
I think you're confusing Vig (Health) and Vit (Equip load)
The only reason to ever pick Knight is if you desperately want to avoid casting at all cost.
>>138836754
Out chug more like
also nobody's ever alone in world any more. I've invaded precisely one person who didn't have a summon. It's just retarded, you have to wait for more reds to come in and that leaves you open to more blues and other whites. It's stupid as fuck. And if you don't feel like getting gangraped today, the cunts will just walk through the boss fog and Oh well invasion over.
>>138836007
>Best starting build for not-magic is Knight
Not necessarily
>>138836825
Naw bro, I'd swap from +0 in really low zones to +5 after depths to +10 in Sen's to Chaos+5 in endgame. It was fun that way. There's no challenge in oneshotting people.

Base on shard tier availability, it's +3 for Farrons Forest Fags and +6 in Aldritch's faithful faggots. You can upgrade to chunks once you go into Lothric Castle.

Seems weird though, since I'm getting invades with +9 in Profaned Capital.
>>138836919
I'm not justifying anything. If honorfags want fun 1v1 duels, invasions while I'm progressing or co-oping aren't where I'm going to do them. Quicker for everyone if I just let them kill me.
>>138836740
>I think we need a list of the max upgrades available in certain areas.

I'm serious it's all there. Ornstein's armor even pops up out of nowhere after you kill him right above where the battle took place. And the armor description says he used to be a dragonslayer. Easy enough to figure out
>>138837002
See you're the kind of guy that I'd have REAL fun with when I was invaded on my SL20. Because after using my lower-level weapon a bit I'd hop behind a wall, swap to an identical +5 Chaos weapon, and pop back out. Worked every time I tried it.
>>138837005
I was about to
>>138836850
You're entitled to your opinion here, but the numbers don't add up. I am intending to be a spellsword, which might skew numbers a bit.
with 13 str and 18 dex for weapon use, I can hit 40 Int by level 80 with respectable numbers in vigor, vitality, endurance, and atunement. Less for the last one than a pure caster, but that's alright. Knight is better than pyromancer for such a build at every level, and by extension a faithsword build would also function best as a knight.
If you're intending to use spells for every possible thing, pyromancer is probably better. But magic is so fucked currently that unless you're dedicating yourself 110% to a particular magic school, you're better off going spellsword for weapon buffs and utility spells.
Did my game bug or do you not get kicked out of an invasion when they enter the boss room? I watched two guys fight the crystal sage until they died and then it just gave me a pale tongue and sent me home
>>138837086
You raped her
>>138837009
Who takes pride in auto invade covenants? They're purely there to annoy people, not honor PvP. If you're not okay with me letting you kill me, then go do another covenant. It's not pride, it's literally what your covenant is there for.

>>138836951
Nah thats not what killed me. I died trying to pull the mages down. Those little scrubs die to arc attacks.
>>138837020
Maybe you could invade downwards, I didn't want to risk it though and there were enough shitters through the swamps that +4 was enough. If a +5 Anon can double check if he gets regular invasions in Forest Covenant, then we will know for sure.
>warp to bonfire

Why?
I told Greirat to go scavenge for a second time, but completed Seigward's quest line up to the part where we toast. I just killed Aldrich and Greirat still isn't back.
What am I fucking up?
I never told patches where he was and his body isn't in Irithyll either.
>>138837087
Ornstein's armor says that he went hunting for Nameless.
You know, I hate to say, but I don't think I like this game.
The super fast and aggressive enemies mesh terribly with the speed of your character, magic and miracles are trash until near the end of the game, weapon balancing is in the shiter, quest's are obtuse as fuck, random enemies are harder than most bosses, poise only working on the super heavy weapons is just awful, and all this stupid fucking senseless fanservice...
The level design, enemy design, bosses, the whole tone, it does some things very right, but there's so much bullshit in the actual game part that it just doesn't hold up.
The game is exceptional. Really is. I don't give a fuck about PvP which I haven't tried yet but the world is immense, the game is challenging, the bosses are impressive, there are plenty of 'oh shit' moments and its damn addictive.
It's the best in the series and anyone who says otherwise is blinded by nostalgia or jealousy.
And yes, I have played Bloodborne to completion multiple times including DLC. The DLC does match the quality of DS3 I will admit.

>knight is better

>Knight has a 6 level advantage in str/dex/Vig/end combined

>doesn't add up
what doesn't add up are your math skills.
Knight's chief stat is Vitality (Equip load) which is pointless for a caster since you're not gonna be rolling around with the heaviest weapons and shields in the game and armor is fucking pointles.
>>138837190
>>138837084
A lot of people don't use summon signs and it can take a long time to be summoned, it's much easier to just go randomly pvp and see if the dude is up for it (depending on the area)

Vendrick's dialogue in DaS2 is literally 'I'm more fit to be a jester than a king'
So my brother's been testing hollow infusions and he came across something weird. Basically, he found went 40 Dex and 30 luck and for used the Hollow Cathus Shotel and claws, they both have C and below DEX scaling at the start and when hollowed, provide more scaling from Dex and Luck combined. It might be a weird form of quality build for certain under-utilised weapons since you can get +10 free luck at max hollow.

Wait maybe I'm retarded. I did go back there after beating the game since I missed it on the first run.
I played for 6 hours last night while drinking wine with my friends and it was an absolute joy. I've never seen them watch a game with such interest and engagement (they don't play games). The tension, panic and intensity that this game generates is on another level.
If the weapons were as interesting as Bloodborne's I'd have no hesitation saying its the best in the series.
broadsword or longsword? i hear broadsword is better but it looks so short

>>138837319
imo bloodborne's about a million times better than ds3 if you dgaf about pvp, even before the dlc; you're definitely entitled to your opinion, though
>>138837374
he failed at his kingly duties and lusted after nashandra to the detriment of his kingdom

Everywhere
why the fuck do I keep connecting to chinese hackers
what the fuck is going on
which one do you find more fun pyromancy or sorcery?
sorcery is a bit boring in my opinion
Why does lothric have 2 (TWO) forums what the FUCK
>>138837495
Oh, too bad, I thought I missed something.
Getting chunks earlier without dancer skip would be nice.
Do you ever like, do really well as a blue sentinel and just think 'damn, my summoner must think I'm really great'

there's your problem
>>138837535
You're playing on PC with cross region play on. Don't worry you can get mad about that now and then mad at console users later for not wanting to play on pc for this very reason.
Am I the only person just really confused by this game? I've played DeS, DkS1/2, and BB (not OH), and I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing in DkS3. I do no damage (40 Dex, sharp infused weapons), enemies poise tank me so I can't by hyper aggressive, but shields are trash and are useless after one blocked attack. Gone is the countering/punishment system of every game before, but we don't even get the aggressive and fast paced style of BB. I'm just lost. If I block an attack, I get guard broken and I'm dead. If I try to poise tank, I get stunlocked because poise doesn't exist. If I try to stunlock an enemy, I get stunlocked because poise does exist for them.
I just like so many things about this game, but I don't even know what's going on with this combat.

>he's dead; look in the spider basement
he's not
there is no corpse, I checked because that's what I initially thought
anri isn't appearing at the darkmoon tomb either

What's a good and fun build? I went all STR first time around, not exactly interesting.
>>138837627
The combat is fine. You're doing something wrong. I'm playing BB style with tons of dex and endurance and I'm destroying everything in my path. Haven't used a shield once.
>>138837673
>what is a spellsword
>>138837689
Try quality. It opens up a ton of weapon options.
>>138837669
>I don't know how armor mechanics works in DaS3
armor is pointless, you get the same flat damage reduction from rags as a full set of havels armor.
What you get from armor is a small % decrease of the damage AFTER the flat reduction has been applied.
Heavy armor being pointless isn't a meme, it's a fact.
So are all the Souls of Cinder the ashes that other Ashen Ones have brought back to their throne? Despite the time travel bullshit? And then those ashen ones linked the flame?
Or, are these the last lords of cinder to need to join the rest before the world can finally be finished?

>>138837580
>i sure did well ganking that 4v1
>back to being a used condom like all his other phantoms
>>138837749
If that small % decrease allows me to survive a second hit, then it's worth it.
>>138837749
not to mention that any armor reduction above 20% is greatly reduced.
>>138837669
17 vit is only enough to wear medium armour, and not even medium-heavy armour either since you can't spare the ring slots to boost it.
Medium armour will reduce damage by like 5% more than cloth
stop being a retard

that's just a fucking Sorcerer
you don't any points in endurance at all if you're using straight swords or something similar.
>>138837739
Is Dex/Str with Int/Faith any good?
Does pyromancy scale off of Int/Faith like DaS2, or is it like DaS 1 and only scales off of fire?
>vaati has no idea what the friendly cage NPC is for
>People actually watch this guys videos
>>138837772
Yo is this game just Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and the flame is the anti-spiral?
>>138837854
I haven't tried a spellcaster yet. Just done a strength build and a dex/str greatsword build. Both were plenty fun.
>>138837816
if you're 'just' surviving a hit due to being able to wear heavier armour because of Vit you could just point those points into Vig instead and still survive you fucking mong
So where did my little master thief go? He wanted to go steal some shit. Was I supposed to refuse him?
This graveyard is the best zombie game of the past decade.
>>138837876
you still need to level the hand so i guess at least the hand will scale. You also need int/faith to use some spells so maybe both
Alright, preliminary weapon level per area sheet made (based on my own run and observations of streams). Anybody have any suggestions?

In High wall of Lothric area you can get 1 large shard by chasing away the fire breathing dragon and another one by trading normal firebomb with crow.
>>138837876
>>138838035
pyromancy is heavily influenced by the 3 fire boosting rings, int and faith AND the upgrade level of your flame.
>>138837772
The soul of cinder is the flame using it's own fuel to try and fight you off, because the ashen one is not the savior of the world, you are the bringer of the apocalypse whether you try to link the fire or snuff it out.
This is why you just slump over when you try to reingnite it, your quest was a lie.
Just got the Carthus Bloodring
Is it any good or is the extra i-frames not that necessary

What are you talking about she clearly gave up and just let me do it, that's not rape.
I choosed knight because i wanted good early game stats, but i want some pyro spells, when do i get the pyro item? help pls
>>138838163
Ah, you're right. I forgot about the crow.
>>138838219
none of the pyro spells bar Rapport are worth using unless you're building pyromancer.

He's asking what it means lore wise, what the guy is trying to say exactly

ME
HWAAAHHAHAHWAHA
Where is Siegward? I kill Aldrich, miss his well rescue. Wiki say he should be as prisoner in dungeon, but prison cell is empty. I fucked?
Does pyromancy scale with int/faith or is it just that certain spells have requirements for it?
>>138838330
>3 phantoms
Explain to us how you got 7 people in a 6 player game please?
>>138838571
it scales with both int and faith
who here still playing Dark Souls 1
shit PCs represent
>tfw this is the last actual souls game
we might get more souls-likes but no more of this dark medieval fantasy setting
that's pretty sad guys, I want swords and armor and magic not guns
>It's a lagging summon that doesn't take damage and can solo the boss without moving from his spot
Do NPC invasions stop if you kill the boss of the area?
>>138838190
however many iframes you get is not worth the massive amount of defense you lose
Is it just me or are these bosses super easy to beat in this game?
>>138838652
I remember we were saying Victorian era Lovecraftian shit before bloodbourne even came out.
