ring suggestions?
So i'm thinking of doing a dex twinswords build for my second playthrough. Are they actually good or are they gimicky? what advantages do they have over regular 1handed weapons?
>SL 80 is the new meta
SL 125 for DeS
Like SL 150 for DaS
It'll be between 100 or 120 for DaS III
This is how stat allocation works, people want to hit diminishing returns on health/stam and then have enough points for build variance while not being able to do everything.
Nice try kiddos

Prisoner's. Become the Champion.
I swear input queuing in this game will wear me down far sooner than boredom or anger.
Anybody else feel really underwhelmed with the ending to this game compared to Das1, hell even Das2? I wasn't expecting anything, but the last boss I breezed through it on my first try, and the ending cutscene was pretty lackluster. Only boss in this game that actually gave me any trouble and feeling of accomplishment was the fucking nameless king, that fucker took me nearly 2 hours.

>>139161158
>if you back off he's then completely helpless the rest of the fight
I do agree the first time it happens its complete and utter bullshit though, nigga looks like he's staggering.
>>139161104
The twin straightswords scale better with heavy despite having higher dex reqs. Haven't tried any of the twin curved swords but I imagine they are alright.
>>139161150
which ending, bruh
is the dragonslayer axe any good?
so is there a weapon tier list yet?
if not MAKE ONE DSG
>>139161229
99 arrows
>>139161147
Turn off DoF, it's looks so much better without it.

Ds2's pve was shit house but the pvp carried it for years. Unless From introduces some radical patches and dlc DS3 is going to have the least player retention out of the entire series.
>>139161203

Is it worth it to go below 30% equip load to get the very-fast roll?
Anyone know any good 2 handed magic weapons?
I'm doing a str magic build and the closest thing I could find is the Astora Greatsword which is still pretty shit
And since the moonlight greatsword (which I normally roll with) is even weaker than my 1 handed Lothric Sword, I'm really not finding a damn thing
For Int/Pyro builds, are weapons better buffed or infused? Any good weapons that scale with Int/Faith?
If people want to make some easy souls, just put some co-op signs outside Dancer and Pontiff. It's endless summons here.
>>139161397
>no silver knight spear despite there being a model for it in the game
>no demon's spear despite there being a model for it in the game

I don't get the lore of this at all..
What happened to the chosen hollowed of Dark Souls1?
I thought Dark souls 2 was in a different world? One with some kind of insane god-king traveling the world conquering shit and killing giants?
It seems like ages pass between the games, how are people still alive? Is it just the countries that the games are in that are fucked and the rest of the world is fine and dumbass adventures keep comming to these cursed areas or do a handfull of people keep breeding and keep the humanity alive somehow?
>Get parried
>Guy has Hornet Ring
Why
Remember: People complaining about R1 spam in Dark Souls 3 are the same people that walked and rolled into ice rapier spam in Dark Souls 2
They have no idea of how to play, parry, or space

Aye let me tell you why NO ONE uses Way of the Blue
Way of the Blue is intended for newb players. So how do you get it? You need to talk to the hag AFTER she gives you Lothrics Flag to get Way of the Blue. How many newbies do this? Surprisingly not many. Then they have to put it on. See as soon as many newbies find the Sunlight covenant, you think they going to equip that way of the blue shit? LMAO.
Now the only other way to get Way of the Blue automatically is when she dies before dancer and you loot it off her corpse. See at this point in the game people are level 50+ and co oping and may also be in a pvp covenant like wolfs or fingers or mound makers or sunbroing it up. YOU THINK THEY HAVE WAY OF THE BLUE ON? LOL NOPE.
And even if you find that lone guy who has it on, he has to be in ember mode, and have a phantom and get invaded, only for it to call on 1 blue out of possible 100s, and by the time you get there, the host is dead.
They should've made Blues auto invade to counter Reds, not require someone equipping Way of the Blue ring/covenant item its such a shit tier design.
>Dancer's swords are gorgeous

Are the crystal sage rapier and darkmoon bow any good? please answer
>>139161097
Dark sword
Any reccomendation for how upgraded I should be if I want to try and fight Dancer early?
>>139161397
Buy the season pass. Or farm lothric knights till they drop their spear.
>>139161525
Entrance to Hemwick Charnel.
Kill the riflemen.
Anyone on ps4 wanna trade me some dark hands?
I fucked the questline so I can't buy it
>post yfw you picked up the rusted coin in the dungeon
>>139161364
It's both actually. Some undead turn into the butterflies while others turn into trees. Just like how some Path of the Dragon Undead turn into fleshy Dragons while others become Stone Dragons.
>>139161097
the knightslayer ring is nice in pvp if you're using one of the many r1 spam swords.
>>139161582
Its a souls game, 90% chance of anything that looks cool being useless. DS3 exemplifies this with how straightsword R1-spam beats out literally everything interesting.
>>139161519
desu souls games are for PvM, if you want engaging, skill-based PvP go play a good esport
>>139161236
Huh..
>>139161363
>sorceries
>bad
Sorceries are fine where they are. Crystal Soul Spear is strong and not too expensive and the laser is decent if you've got that invis ring.
Also, there are plenty of slabs by the end of the game. You should be able to upgrade six or so weapons and if you still need some then you can go farm them. Not any worse than only getting 3 guaranteed slabs in DS1.
>>139161302
make it yourself
>>139161505
I can't help you with the rest of it, but DS2 takes place on a separate continent from DS1. The Land of the Giants that King Vendrick invaded is heavily implied to be the DS1 continent.
>>139161528
it's annoying as fuck to deal with if you don't have a shield
>>139161251
Haven't bothered to look it up since I heard there are like 5 of them, but basically once I defeated the boss and lit the first flame the cutscene triggered and my character looked at the surrounding area a bit, lit the flame, then sat down in front of it and was somewhat on fire too, then the credits rolled.

because he wants to do more damage when he parries
>>139161605
>all gwyndolin art is now canon for when Aldrich shows up
hmmm
>>139161605
Crystal Rapier give you item discovery, which is a must for darkmoon and furry covenants since you can't get invasions no matter what and must farm all that shit.
>>139161494
>>139161632
BUT I WANT IT NOW, WTF FROM.
>>139161505
He set himself on fire.
It's not. Vendrick wasn't a god he was just a cool guy who stole shit from the Giants to make his golems but the giants got pissed and invaded then his waifu who was actually Manus betrayed him.
The characters you meet are undead they can stick around as long as they don't go hollow from losing a sense of purpose. However the real reason is because Miyazaki is a hack who doesn't know what made Ds1 good so 3 is just trying to be as Ds1 as possible even if it means copy pasting characters like onion bro.
I'm stuck in this fogwall
Best Twin weapon?
Warden/maces/axes/gotthard/2kats or spears?
for quality pvp (^:

Posting again to show improved pictures.
>Demon Ruins boogaloo
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING
>>139161505
DS1 - Chosen Undead links the flame
(Lords of Cinder link the flame)
DS2 - Vendrick steals the first flame and Chosen Undead finds a way around the curse and ignores the flame.
DS3 - The flame is going out because of DS2, so the previous lords are resurrected in a last ditch effort.
Most of the people you meet are undead or not human, so they don't die between games.
>>139161686
Man if they can't even handle R1 spam in this super simple pvp, they can't handly anything requiring skill
>>139161605
Crystal Sage is worth making for the 50 item discovery boost. It's shit as a weapon.
Darkmoon Longbow is just a longbow that scales with INT. The weapon art is the exact same, even in visuals, as the longbow Puncture. It adds 20 magic damage.
FUCKING NOTHING
You need moonlight arrows for it to do any damage, and it still doesn't do much. Moonlight arrows cost FIVE HUNDRED SOULS apiece.
>>139161582
It's getting buffed next patch.
>grab attacks that kill you at full health even when you mash the buttons
Never gets old
Small Doll is the doll from Bloodborne.
I literally can't beat last bossy. As soon as I lock on my rolls literally kills me.
So uh, after I help Sirris kill Creighton, when does her sign show up at the pit of hollows? I think I may have somehow broken the quest.

Is it just the countries that the games are in that are fucked and the rest of the world is fine and dumbass adventures keep comming to these cursed areas or do a handfull of people keep breeding and keep the humanity alive somehow?
Ages pass between games, and the region Anor Londo is in literally in the ass end of the world where people send the undead because they know they go fucking insane and no one wants to deal with that shit.
That place also happens to be filled with tons of adventurers and important shit because it was once where the seat of power for the entire continent/world was.
On top of that, you've got dimensional weirdness, time distortion, and the fact the entire history of the world is endless cycles repeating.

Turtle up or summon some backup to help clear things out.
>>139161981
It shows up after you defeat Aldrich, right before the entrance to the Cursewood fight.
What should I make my next DS3 run be?
Is there a recommended level for Pontiff? Currently around 38-40 and having some trouble with his second form. Everything goes batshit when the phantom begins attacking.
>>139161690
Sorceries are bad for the investment required. The SL to get a decent sorcery build would net you an AMAZING build of any other kind except Faith. So yes while they are technically alright by themselves when compared to the other options they are terrible.
Except for Faith of course. It's just flat out terrible. Don't even try that "Oh my Sunlight Spear hits for 1k at 50 Faith and all the rings on while I am currently in the process of fisting the persons asshole". Nobody gets hit by Lighting Spears ever in any game. Much less when you are standing right in their face and it takes an extra millisecond to cast the poise buff.
>>139161998
Darkmeme stuff, pretty obvious question.
Where can I get more refined gems?
>>139161519
>Using a greatsword
>Fight faggot with longsword

>Guy doesn't try to parry or do anything fancy with unlocks, just roll backwards every time
>Try being more aggressive
>Miss
>Starts R1 spamming
>lmao >poise so staggered out of my 2nd swing and take 2 hits
>Can't land more than 1 hit at a time because if I try a 2nd just get r1'd
I aint even bothered by it that much because it makes parrying so much easier, but you can't deny that the current poise+longsword spam state isn't shitty.
>>139161357
>Can't use that sword key as an actual weapon if you want
>Not a Luck scaling dagger moveset that does loadsadamage
Shit game
I can tell what's going to happen and I don't like it
Any thoughts on Yhorms Machete for PVP? The weapon looks really cool but I'm not sure about it effectiveness.
>>139161906
bone / darksign out then restart game maybe
>>139161660
Please respond
>>139161750
how big is yourpuffy vagina?
>>139161447
there is no very-fast roll. only fatroll and fastroll. Dropping equip load even further below 70% just increases the roll's distance
>>139161452
infused witches loch and crystal sage rapier are great
I'm at level 60ish right now with 20 vit, just killed helped Anri kill Aldrich. How far should I level vit up?
>>139162056
In 1 mashing L1, L2, R1 and R2 did reduce the damage, no idea if it works here.
Why would you ever summon a grape again?
Why exactly were the arenas in 2 bad?
>>139161138
>can swing the bks 5 times and still roll
Please equip your Way of Blue if you're just going through zones or doing random PvP stuff.
I need 18 ears and don't want to farm all of them.
>>139162090
Fast weapons and long range poke weapons always dominate it's retarded. The only time a Greatsword can win is if the straight sword user is retarded and overextends.
>>139162070
Thanks. So I'm still on track with her at least. Here's hoping I didn't fuck up Anri's quest; I talked to her before fighting Horace, and my only optino was say nothing. Then I killed him, and now she's gone.
>>139161037
>SL 80
If I upgrade my weapon to +4, will I be fucked off the co-op fun at very low SL (15 as of now)?
>>139161926
They're all incredibly good for PvE.
For PvP, the swords and the maces are exceptionally good. The swords because of their bullshit phantom range rolling R1 and the maces because of their god-tier damage and fantastic tracking on their WA.
>>139162069
>>139161935
Is it supposed to be hard?
>>139162108

>All weapons with split damage are shit

From shat the carpet on any form of stylish niche weapons.
>>139162109
it's really strong when it can land a hit. I can usually kill a dude in about 3 hits.
>>139162009
Another thing DaS2 did better.
Hell. i'm finding it hilarious how the worst PVE beside the amazing DLC's had the best pvp
I want to fight against players that are fun to fight against, and not people that spam straight sword R1

>>139161609
I beat her around level 50 or so.
Took me a good while, but I'm not that great a player.
Defenitely get some stamina recovery; you're gonna do a lot of rolling.
Just lost 10k souls in Cathedral of the Deep twice.
Pretty frustrated. People bitched about how Dark Souls 2 made areas "difficult" by just mobbing you with enemies, and this is the exact same thing, but way, way worse.
Around every corner is a mob of guys climbing up over the rail or dropping from the ceiling. You fight 3+ enemies like six or seven times.

>>139162027
according to IGN it's the "To Link the First Flame" ending, and no, I didn't ignore shit or rush the game, the only thing I missed out on was becoming hollowed by that hunchback thing. I did every other optional thing in the game besides that.
>>139162087
the knights around lothric castle can drop em. its rare though. I got one just now from killing one near the corner of the drawbridge closest to the bonfire

>>139162272
they probably scrapped it because it's a shit idea
>>139161037
Reminder that 120 is too high, it takes too long to grind to and reduces specialization because at that level nobody has to make sacrifices in vit/end/whatever, so everyone will have fast rolls in heavy armor n shit.

What do you have to trade per chance? I don't mind giving you one or two.

>>139162337
I beat the final boss with a hollow painted guardian sword and bleed consumables. He bled every 3 hits, it was amazingly OP.
Does anyone know if Champion can use his shoulder slam or kick after any attack? Or only certain ones?
I'm having a ridiculously hard time with this boss and it's mostly because I simply don't have time to attack between a regular attack and one of those two, and I can't seem to recognize when he can use them.
I also have absolutely no idea how to consistently avoid taking damage from his charging thrust attack. I've tried rolling left, right, unlocking and rolling around him, rolling right into him, and just running away from him. I have managed to block the first hit of it and roll through the rest (I think? something like that), but I want to learn this boss without a shield.

It's a lot of tight, initially confusing corridors and rooms with lots of agile, quick enemies and some big beefy ones. Oh and they're all placed behind corners so no drawing them out one at a time with a bow, you're forced into pull entire rooms most of the time.

I wish more mad men were actually mad and did funny shit.
whats my back up weapon with estoc? need a weapon with some sweep
>>139162257
If it can't be infused it's not good
>>139161130
Dimishing returns on stamina kick in once you have like 230 stamina with rings, though.
>>139162246
another game than DaS3, there is no point where straight swords stop being viable, if anything they only get more powerful.
At higher SL you'll run into some havel estoc shitters too though :^)
Reddit is hosting a mound maker tournament if you guys wanna try to fuck it up with me. It's on the ds3 reddit page.

You see them rising from their graves in the opening cutscene. Linking the fire probably kills you and the 5 lords just came back to life so that their souls could be used in the kiln again.
>>139162557
I feel like that's way too high IMO. My highest character is 90 and I feel like even that is too much.
>Butcher Knife's weapon art
>Drang Hammers weapon art and dat damage
I like this video game

>>I put on my human ring, and eventually happen upon the invader
>>he thinks I'm the host
Oh shit is that what the ring that the hollowing chick sells does?
>>139162614
Just parry him lmao.
>>139162618
it just looks bad
the proportions are bad
Is the fallen knight's trousers description actually implying it's stained with piss?
>>139162545
this
>male outrider knights have the same big jiggly asscheeks as the dancer
i mean treeballz is such a great creative boss
something onlly the japanese could come up with
>>139162545
Allone Bow, Brigand Daggers
Switch to Dancer blades eventually
>>139162594
Uhh what are you wanting?
I kinda want two.

>tfw making as many knights as possible, grabbing the early shard and ring, doing the dancer cheese, and then duping a million souls worth of the boss soul for future test builds before they patch all of it out
So is the last boss basically a level 999 chosen undead?
>>139162572
it's too bad most retards are ruining grapes for the rest of us
beelining for the host like god damn retards
like honestly most of the time if you get summoned you'll get an invader to kill
>>139162616
Just chillin

Pontiff was not a picky man.
>>139161357

How is that thing? Do you get his sweet shoulder check as a move with it?

Hope the series ends here, perfect ending
>>139162442
>tfw you love the look of old, weathered armor with a cloak and hat, we wanderer now
>tfw edgy memes
I love it but I feel dirty for loving it.
>>139162257
PGS, along with the Chaos Blade, gets S scaling in DEX. In fact, those two weapons are the only ones that get scaling like that naturally. So, yes, it's fantastic if you've got high DEX. It's WA is meh, but it's not like you really need it.
>>139162442
Nothing says fashion more than being a dragon.
>>139160914
are strength builds good? i was thinking of using the the large club and atsora greatsword
So, how do all the new infusions work. I get Sharp, refined, and heavy, but what about the others?
>>139162718
Sounds gay.
So I found and killed Horace - poor bastard - and went back to talk to Anri and chose "say nothing" a couple of times.
Can I go kill Mr. Giant Skeleton now, seeing as that's the only way to get to Irithyll or is there another place I can talk to Anri after this?
>>139162545
I love them both equally, and I can't cosplay either for shit in this game. Though dancer's leggings is a good start.
How's the dorkmoon bow? That might help, and one of the twindaggers looks a lot like EMIYA's in shape.
>>139162816
DS1 chosen undead + the lords of cinder + Gwyn.
>>139162069
>summon some backup
I kited the black knight into the enemies and he did a pretty good job :^)
>>139162702
maybe I'm not sure at this ponit. At 93 I'm getting a shit load of action though anywhere I go.
>>139162915
Tell her the truth.
>>139162283
I'm not building a DEX character
>>139162442
>>139162887
Beats a boot to the face.
>>139162864
is the crstal sage rapier any good?
>>139162710
Yes, it makes you show up as a Host of Embers to other players.
>>139162828
It does seem like when I get summoned that the host quickly gets invaded. Would certainly be funny if Grapes increased your invasion chance.
Either way, if you're just going to kill the host, why not just invade, you'd have an easier time. Being a Mound Maker is all about being subtle, getting the most out of the host, and seeing how things go. I'd much rather kill a phantom than a host.
>>139162846
Didn't notice at all til thatsurprise one in Lothric castlewas on the stairs above me and fairly close
>>139162337
Where can I find a hollow gem pretty early on?
>>139162885
like...fire? If you can't read in the game I can't believe you can read here.
is there any way that from can even fix the staggering shit or is it just borked forever?
whats the prop with chameleon for the area after pontiff? cant find host, both lizards are fuckin there
cant find the host
>>139162884
lmao
>>139162620
Yeah I finished it and you're playing it like a retard.
>>139162791
They're extremely late but Gotthard Twinswords, Lothric's Holy Sword, or Pontiff's Great Scythe. I really want the Holy sword the most but an Anon told me boss weapons can't be traded.
>>139162885
Raw removes all scaling and bumps up the base damage, better on some weapons, worse on others.
Blessed makes your weapon hit like a wet noodle, gives you shitty health regen and makes it scale poorly with faith while also lowering the regular scaling to shit levels.
>>139162884
they're fun, just do it. People will say use straight swords/estoc/katana but honestly just use what's fun, the game is beatable with anything.... ppv on the other hand
>>139163053
Som gay statue.
>invade someone's world
>3v1 fuck
>suddenly another Dark Spirit invades
>see some fights going on
>sneak through and finish off Host of Embers
>turns out I killed the Dark Spirit.
>Dark Spirit had Untrue ring equipped
>Helm of Avarice drains health even when resting at a bonfire
Has it always done this and I've never noticed?
>>139162884
Of course anon, this is Dark Souls we're talking about.
At what point in the game should I upgrade to +6? Trying not to fuck matchmaking for myself.
>>139163023
Low-ish damage due to split damage, but long reach, good speed, and a better WA than the Estoc. The item find is the cherry on top. It's pretty viable.
>>139162545
Use the Dark Hand for raw anus.
>>139162968
She can't handle the truth.
>>139162257
S scaling in dex for the scythe.
Are there no Lothric Knight gloves? I've been farming the Lothric knights near the Boreal Valley boss for about 40 minutes now, got the helm, armor and leggings, but no hands?
>>139163037
First one I found was in the poison swamp.
Farron perimeter bonfire, turn around, and look for the door/hole on the right.
>>139163040
I am mainly interested in hollow and the chaos and deep gems.
Not sure what they are.
So was anyone else just slightly disappointed you couldn't like the candle ontop of your head in the archives? That would've been a fun little touch.
>>139162882
I fucking hate how gangly the dragon is this time around, I greatly prefer DaS1's look desu.
A lot of areas at Lothric castle reminded me so much of 1-4, actually it's better than 1-4 from DeS.
>>139162421
Are there any attacks you recommend to look out for as an opening to poke him in phase 2?
>>139162694
So who made thrones for them then? Dead lords don't need thrones
>>139163161
It's always done this. I was hoping the lifedrain wouldn't be so crippling this time but it certainly is.
>>139162884
STR builds are great, but Astora GS only has D scaling with STR and C scaling with DEX, so it's more of a quality weapon than it is a STR one.
>>139162885
Here's a quick rundown:
>Raw eliminates scaling and ups base damage.
>Deep and Fire infusions are exactly like Raw, but they convert phys damage to Dark and Fire respectively.
>Blessed makes weapons scale slightly with FAI and causes them to slowly regenerate your HP when equipped.
>Lightning makes your weapons scale heavily with FAI and converts their phys damage to lightning.
>Chaos and Dark makes your weapons scale with both INT and FAI and converts their phys damage to fire and dark respectively.
>Bleed adds bleed damage to your weapon at the cost of reducing scaling and base damage,
>Poison adds poison damage to your weapon at the cost of reducing scaling and base damage.
>Hollow infusion makes your weapons scale with Luck. If you equip a Hollow weapon while at 99 hollowing, you get a 5-point increase to your Luck stat.
>>139163219
Hollow: Reduces base damage, adds luck scaling.
Chaos: Reduces base damage, adds fire damage that scales with Int/Fth.
Deep: Reduces base damage, removes all scaling, adds dark damage.
I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but can NG+ invade NG?
I want to continue invading but I also want to do yoels bullshit.
>tfw you finally find a /fa/ armor combo that you like
Feels good man.
>>139163184
Nevermind, they literally JUST dropped after I posted this kek.
>>139163262
Damn it anon
Is there any reference to the chosen undead of Dark souls 1? I mean- Doesn't Dark souls 1 start shortly after the world is going to shit because god "Gwyn" is running out of fuel to keep the world from going dark ( and becomming an undead infested hellhole ).
So wtf happened to chosen undead? His options were to let the world go dark or to burn all the souls he gathered in his adventure to keep the world running for another (insert number of ages here). But everything still looks shit. Hell, alot of companions the chosen undead met are randomly just kicking around hundreds of years later like union bro.
So did the chosen undead fail on his quest? Cause that undead dude on the throne claims he was the one who started the first kindling and I don't think he's the chosen undead.
>>139163273
While he goes into purple mode spam him
When he summons phantom r1 it down asap
>>139162442
>>139163262
Jesus fuck, those hips.
Were they always like that?
>>139163326
What's it called?
