Okay, I was fine with the straight swords. It was beatable with a variety of different strategies, particularly when used by shitters. Getting killed by them was annoying, but almost always because you slipped up.
I don't say this often, but this needs a nerf. Make the delay between the 2nd and 3rd hit longer or something.

>>
Looking at the wiki, it seems like miracles are intended purely as a supplement to an otherwise melee playstyle, which is turning me off of making a pure cleric for my second playthrough.

Were I to be a wizard, and wanted to supplement my magic damage with fire, do pyromancies scale with INT *or* FTH? Or would I have to level both stats in equal amounts to have my pyromancies be as effective as my sorceries?
>>
>>138955924
Level up str and dex until you can wield a broadsword, then reinforce the broadsword and put stats into HP/Stamina/STR/DEX. Get enough int to cast great magic weapon, and don't level up any casting related stats at all.

Once you get to the Profaned Capital and can get the REAL sorcery staff/scrolls, burn a pale tongue on a respec into an actual sorcery build.

No, enchants, darkmoon / dark / sunlight.

Get an enchantable weapon and just keep it normal, might want to have raw in the beginning.

Even with enchants you won't be doing as much damage as quality builds, but you'll have utility.

hug him and keep attacking him. drink estus whenever you go under 70% hp. don't bother dodging an attack unless you know you can and have to, he misses a ton of his bullshit if you just hug his legs. if you're getting overwhelmed, just attack back harder.

that's literally how i beat him on my first try. i have 25 vigor though so maybe i'm a scrub. a lot of enemies in dark souls 3 are just so fucking offensive that there's no point in trying to avoid their shit. just DPS battle them to death

also, never roll away from anything in ds3, enemies have a fuckton of gapclosers and insane range. either roll into the attack or sideways.

There was a hint about the bridge right before it. When a huge fucking army of skeletons chased me, I hit the bridge because it was supposedly weak. If you're at the ledge you see "descend pop up"
Did Wolnir then went back and hit the bridge again to descend.

Archdragon Peak was because I saw the statue during my first run through the dungeon but since I didn't have a gesture that worked near it, I gave up bothering and just remembered where it was. I found Oceiros by accident because I went through the wrong passageway before Lothric Castle, killed Oceiros, got the gesture, cleared Untended Graves, then spent half an hour trying to find the statue in the dungeon and meeting the jailers again, because I couldn't remember the way to the cliff and assumed it was past the big group of them

So, 4 auto-summoning covenants
Blue, Darkmoon, Farron, Aldritch

A shitton of players report being able to experience only the 4th one, not getting any (or incredibly rare) summons for the other 3. I'm starting to wonder: those of you who have no issues with the first 3, you all have X1/PS4, right? I start to notice the pattern that those who have the issue are all PC-faggots.

bloodborne is as removed from the souls games while still being a part of the series as possible. it's got less stat reliance, more story focus with less focus on build variety, and the game is much easier and faster paced than souls games

also the atmosphere is completely different to anything before it (but DaS3 rips it off at times) so all of the above attracted a whole different crowd of people who normally don't play these games

after hearing about all the fanservice, I thought 3 would be bad

but oh boy

am I so wrong

everything fits together (somewhat) cohesively, the bloodborne-like gameplay is dazzling, the graphics are stunning, although taxing, the enemy design is fantastic, and I haven't had a dull boss so far

have to say my favorite moment so far was turning a corner in the Road of Sacrifices, thinking that knight looked familiar and oh shit I'm being shanked by a massive greatsword

I'm sad we've nearly reached the absolute end of the Souls series, but I feel like this is a good farewell to it

only things that disappoint me (however minor) are:

>no corrupted Priscilla boss
>no Silver Knight weapons
>no Furysword and the Weeb Blade makes it in yet again
>no Pinwheel masks for minmaxing
>NO FUCKING PLUME ON ORNSTEIN'S HELM WHAT THE FUCK FROM

40 is dex softcap. not worth going higher.

I was in the same mindset as you, not sure what I should spec into until I found a cool enough weapon to warrant such a commitment. So for the early game I just made a Raw Broadsword and dumped my early level up points into Vigor, Endurance, and Vitality. You can't go wrong putting points into those.

I ended up using a [Heavy] Brigand Axe throughout the game. It's pretty legit. Great damage, fast, and you get like six swings in a row before you run out of stamina.
