If this isnt a scam how can they do this? The one from game deals just gives you a steam key, yet they sell it for 1/3 the price of steam
>>
>>143681189
When a retailer buys keys from Valve, they put it for Valves cut so whatever they sell it for is at a profit and Valve doesn't have to wait around for money.
Some of these retailers sell it on the grey market sites for not full price, but a guaranteed sale.
Also a large amount of those are purchased with stolen credit card information like G2A which was caught doing that.

consumed kings boss fight is ridiculous on a caster.
Its easy on a low stamina cost melee where you can dodge a lot but casting is difficult.

I have such a short time frame for casting I need to be really precise.
The main problem I have though is I keep getting hit by his charge.

Do I rather side dodge it or through him? I never know when the hit connects. I find it difficult to read.
Any hint?

>>
>>143682583
you don't dodge it
just stick to his tail and you wont ever get hit by anything he does
cast point blank
distancing yourself in this fight is a mistake

you could also just spam a bandit knife with carthus rouge, you dont need luck to make him, dancer, and gundyr a joke
>>
>>143682454
Yeah cause they want that casual money

Oh no, are you gonna have to learn how to dodge black flame? How could anybody possibly learn to do that?

Who gives a shit about twinks, kick them off a ledge. Git gud or cry about how clunky the controls are and how unfair the game is

You have to delay your rolls pretty well at oceiros.

You're completely invulnerable during your roll animation, so just experiment with the timing until you get a feel for it. After his charge, he'll occasionally pause for a few seconds to REEEE a couple times loudly, predicting and capitalizing on this opportunity to cast is likely your best tactic

if it's the same as in DaS2 it has only two regions: japan and not japan
>>
>>143682583
wait for the charge, roll through it, then cast right after you get up, he has a big animation where he will like snarl at you for a second.

also when he is doing his spin if you get like right under his chest, he wont hit you so you can probably get a cast in if you find yourself in that situation


not a caster, but that's what i would suggest
>>
is there a spell like the one in DaS2 that lets you know where the host is when invading?
>>
>>143682583
as with all bosses, if youre having trouble, go in and do not attack at all

just WATCH them and get a feel for their moveset and attack timings and when to dodge etc. do this a couple times and i guarantee you will whoop his ass soon after

>>
>>143682797
it has nothing to do with casuals. People that want to be invaded solo can still achieve that. Most people care about twinks. Twinks are unskilled cunts that ruin the game for other people and only do it because they lack the skill to win in true PvP, not unlike the level 80ers we have now.

>>143683156
yeah, been doing that just now.
If I manage to dodge the charge of his I have a HUGE window for casting... Not so much if I have to Chug AND cast.

will try again now with carthus dodge ring thingie. I have beaten him multiple times melee easily and could probably do so at point blank casting.

I just try to mix things up with every playthrough and this one is all about distance.
The part that gets me is that I dont see any hint on when he strikes during his charge.
But I often have this with beast mobs/bosses in souls games.

Weapons and weapon-swings are so much more predictable and readable for me than some random beast arms/legs/tail

Do you think that things will get better by the first DLC?

With a name like harvest valley, do you think that the area was originally supposed to be the games spooky farm area like Hemwick in BB or Undead settlement?

It seems to me like Bteam ran out of time to model and put the trees in or put any kinda atmosphere in, so they made the place a desolate grey quarry instead.

The place's transition is even in a giant windmill just like forbidden woods as well.

Lucy's a faggot and I deeply maintain that Dark Souls 1 is massively superior in both PvE and PvP but if you think the invading the Burg and Parish with fully upgraded armor, pyromancy flame, and chaos weapons bullshit wasn't a low point, then that says something telling of you.

No, it was a mistranslation. The japanese text roughly calls it the Pooling Valley or something like that.
>>
>>143683330
>Twinks are unskilled cunts
This has never been true.
In Dark Souls 1 you had to defeat a relatively hard boss at a low level.
In Dark Souls 2 you had to avoid every enemy and rush your ass to Straid without weapon upgrades or spending any unnecessary soul.
In Bloodborne, jesus FUCK
In Dark Souls 3 you have to rush through most of the game with a +2 weapon at a low level.
And after that you will be constantly fighting gank squads and 4v1s, unending streams of summons and blues, with half your estus.

You don't even have any right to talk you save editing muling cunt, you never earned anything of your own.

how exactly does the Critical stat work?

In DaS1, You would have people begging to have end game gear, that they got on their 387s, muled down to their level 11s even after the bottomless box glitch was fixed.

In DaS2 on PC, people would just cheat and constantly revert their Soul Memory/saves. It became even easier once the Agape ring was a thing.

Even in /bbg/, you would constantly get level 43 people begging to be password-summon carried through the Orphan of Kos.

Password-summons and being able to trade shit makes it even easier in DaS3. You see people on here all the time asking for others to drop them NG++ rings.

Never said this was unique to Japan, but FROM is a Japanese company in this context.

I'm just constantly mindfucked over how these companies refuse to listen to their playerbase's ideas or deal with their complaints in any way. Blizzard with Hearthstone for example has the same problem where they just don't give a fuck as long as they're making money so they do the bare minimum.

You can max out your flask count and upgrade level in 3. It doesn't affect matchmaking so you can probably have more estus or equal amount that heal better compared to the host depending on how low level you keep yourself.

I realize you're baiting, kid, but it's the principle of the matter. It's an unfortunate flaw in the game's design, even if I suck Dark Souls 1's dick super hard and think it's better than 3.

Obscuring Ring, Darkmoon Ring, and Darkmoon Blade are probably the only ones worth getting. The rest are either not bad, but forgettable. Or just straight up trash.
>>
Kinda sad, there are so many interesting move sets and weapon in the game, but exlusively to mobs and enemies, and we do not get access to them. Pretty pissed actually.

- The one hand cleave/saw weapon from those undead in the settlement for example.
- Or the moveset of those warden hollows with their twinbaldes. I love their back-step swoop around move. I want that too!
- not to forget that super-flurry with the broken straightsword those hollows use in the tutorial level and other early game areas.
- even something as basic as the high-range thrust attack combo hit some of those lothric knights do with their 2h swords after some basic auto attacks.

I feel ripped.

I have never played Bloodborne but just looking at gameplay videos of makes me think it had WAY better weapon design with much more varied movesets and attacks.

DS3 feels like a downgrade regarding this only.
All other aspects of the game are awesome though.

Why invade when you can just have people invade you? Hell, even pop a finger and fight 2v1's as a host to your heart's content: they outnumber you but you have more life/flasks.

Hey so I've been computing the real value of Vitality so that people can stat it rationally.

Briefly, what I'm doing:
>For each armor set weight, I find the armor set with the maximum absorb.
>Then, I plot max absorb v. weight, and effective health increase v. weight.

Here's some plots for slash absorb. I don't want to take a weighted average of the absorbs or anything for complex statistical reasons I won't get into.

Next up, I'll highlight some conclusions, and some of the best armor sets. Later I'll do thrust absorb.

His weapon does thrust damage, which gets bonus damage on counter hits. The leo ring can boost it even further.

>>143686676
lucerne exclusively deals thrust damage
he is wearing leo ring and counter hitting you

at the end of any attack animation you lose 30% thrust absorption
the leo ring adds 15% extra damage on top of that
this is why the lucerne has the AR of a straight sword

fair enough but listen here. I consider myself to be a pretty empathetic fellow. Certain things I can see why people like or enjoy. But for the life of me, I just cannot put myself in the mind of a ganker. like the fuckers who stand at the top of the hill next to kiln of the first flame just waiting for motherfuckers to invade just so they can instantly kill them. What sort of gratification could that possibly bring? Is it some sort of twisted power trip? Is it for farming souls? couldnt be that, there are faster ways to do such. even if it is the former, i don't see how that could stay fun for more than like 5-10 minutes max.

beating up invaders with my pal while we are cooping just feels downright fucking filthy to me personally. i had to take a shower after we got through cruci woods

Thats fucking retarded. I wasted a divine game on a lucerne for the Catacombs level, thinking that since they are skellies, they will be weaker to blunt damage than thrusts and slashes, and the range would also have been good for crowd control.

I then had to spend 2 hours to farm for another divine gem to put on my mmornign star instead.

It turned out to be shit due to its no range and unecessary bleed damage

If From doesn't care about PvP, why would they make everything bad even for PvE? It's seems like they care in the sense that they hate the entire userbase. Otherwise they would have given us poise/armor/shields/weapons/buffs/upgrades/infusions/spells/miracles/builds/stats/anthing that made sense and worked. DeS and DaS1 may not have been perfect but I don't think any one of you would say that shit didn't work exactly like it was supposed to if it didn'the surpass expectations.

Some people like the power trip, I, for one, liked invading in other games sometimes to fuck over someone's days. I'm the sort of person who broke your weapon, entered the rat covenant or kept trying to poison/toxic new players. Sometimes it feels fun.

I don't do gank squads or lke them, but that's the feeling I assume they have.

Honestly, I never had fun with magic in any of these games.

They seem almost explicitly designed for pvp. Trying to do pure int or faith in DaS1 was a chore.

At the end of the day, the build that allows you to hit things really hard with a weapon was always the most practical.

I played through DS1 when I was a bit of an atheist edgefag at 16, and pretty much ignored faith for a muscle wizard build. the magic was completely underwhelming, with just stand still and hold R1 to raise staffa and shoot blue thing at people.

I just played through again a few years later and decided to go full paladin instead because it turns out shooting lightning at faggots and Allah Ackbaring with WotG was so much more fun and badass looking.
