You often hear streamers talking about "playing with randoms". Is there anyway to do otherwise aside from joining streamer fight clubs?
You guys are so mean to Lucy, looks like he doesn't even want to post in this thread anymore.

So, Axes are stuck in a sort of limbo because they are too slow to compete with Straight Swords, but have no hyper armor whatsoever so they can't trade with them either, right?
Is that true or is there a significantly fast Axe that I'm overlooking?
>>144762282

This is why I kill fellow reds on sight.
what are some good weapons for 24 str and 40 faith build ?
>>144762961
Well it still looks worse than DaS1 if you consider the whole package.
Building an ags gankmurderer. Hornet or Leo ring? I only have space for one.
>>144763231
cockring
>>144763074
Just switch it to 50 STR/30 FTH and use Morne's Great Hammer. Go to the Kiln of the First Flame and ruin little kids' ganks with Wrath of the Gods.

Hello lads, do you need every version of every ring for the achievement?
>>144763074
Go 34/30 and you can 2H Morne's for some fun.
It's the best greathammer in the game by far.
>>144763558
Yep
>>144760910
hah!
you might say this thread's gonna be a CARCRASH

>>144763414
>>144763801
If you ever need to use Morne's WA more than twice, you're doing something terribly wrong.
The patch's WA change won't meaningful change the performance of Morne's.
Whats some good fashion for a female sorcerer?
Thanks for hosting.
You guys are too gud. Hopefully, I'll learn to be a mage one day.

Has anybody made a lucerne build? what infusion should I use for the most optimal soul level?
It seems to have average damage and good range especially with the running and rolling attacks and the weapon art stunlocks but I'm not sure what to do with it

Aaand that's all I've got that's decent. Any suggestions for areas/viewpoints or cutscenes for NG+?
>>144764219
I heard it's easier to get with the Collector's Edition. If you don't have it maybe ask someone that does?
>>144764219
You farm, Anon. Picture might be related too.
>>144764147
Yes but first you'll have to explain what the fuck "optimal soul level" means.

You should maybe try to be more Poster Boy, rather than using your own sets.
People will consider it more accessible if it's just generic Knight than Anon's Character.
My game is crashing everytime i load my save. Pls help
>>144762896
how bad are dark sorceries?
>>144764571
I dont find males cute
so let me get this straight
we went from estoc & darksword meme meta to cestus parryspam meta
what do i do now? cant use heavy weapons because they use light weapons with the cestus, cant use light weapons because they parry.
wheres poise?
>>144764686
You're on the right way.
>>144764845
Leo ring

Things likely to be stealth nerfed in fridays patch, so people who use it done immediately rage:
-dark sword
-estoc

Oh shit, really? That's it. Rolling up a build right now.
>>144764413
Not any more, some spells require you to actually use your catalyst like a sword and it looks like they need some physical exertion. Not to mention if you want to be able to use a real weapon on your main hand or wear some actual protective armor ;^)
>>144765304
Do you even bothering to time attacks so the hyperarmor frames are actually active
How do we fix magic without making it OP? Can it actually be balanced?
If casting it to fast to dodge on reaction it becomes a problem, if its to slow its impossible to hit with
>>144765427
>get hit once
>dont stagger

Don't teach them they have to learn the hard way
>>144765412
I'll have a sweaty sorceress, then
>>144765516
Reducing endurance costs for a start. Let them up their spam(without changing the cost), so they can combo spells more. As it stands the endurance costs simply don't allow for that, and every spell combo tends to be pretty basic in return
>>144765543
>get hit during ha frames
>don't stagger
>get hit out of ha frames
>stagger
It's not rocket science
>>144765516
Improve tracking
Buff damage by around 15%
Reduce stamina costs
Add new FP-restoring item
If this happens magic will work.
Nice typo FROM :^)
>>144765560
what level?
>>144765881
80-120
>>144765881
I'M AT 100
SO THAT SOUNDS
FINE
>Twinblades getting nerfed next patch
It's like From wants me to just resort to hornet ring parry fishing.
>>144764147
No, I dont think a single person has yet to make a lucerne build.
In any souls game probably.
>>144765748
>It's not rocket science
it's also not consistent, I've tanked two DSGA hits and sometimes only one, both using R1. I've also been hit by daggers and got staggered with the same timings. this shit doesnt work.
Am I fucked for pvp if I went over sl120? I still get a shitload of pve summons surprisingly but rarely get invaders or come across red summon signs.
What do you guys think of my build i dont know what fucking hat to wear i dont want to wear the dusk crown. Also would like any suggestions on what to change out kinda going for hard hitting spells but still able to swing with the moonlight if im out of fp completely
>>144766279
I'd like to know this too, for opposite reasons. I'm actually more into PvE than PvP, but I don't want to lose people past level 120.
>>144766027
>hornet ring and offhand cestus have been busted and meta-defining since release

It's like they want their game to die.

As long as you're level 144 or less you're fine
>>144766305
Shit. Get 60INT, don't be sl85. Wear the fucking dusk crown.
>>144765631
lmao, more like a sorceress whose stats get halved for one week every month, who complains about everything non stop, and who gets phantoms to carry her through every step of the game. And then sleeps around, gets pregnant to circumvent her contract, and fucks off when things are about to get hard.
>>144766245
Like literally everything else in the game, latency is a factor. If that's a deal breaker for you then I don't know how you can stand using any weapon at all.
>>144766305

Enjoy casting a single CSS and not having enough stamina to roll.

>Wear the fucking dusk crown
Yea if your idea of fashion is the nearby trash can

Holy shit, you can get a visceral on Lorian?
I just stabbed him in the fucking heart for most of his HP.
Is it possible to see exact stamina costs/values using CE?
The normal menu just shows your maximum stamina as a stat which is dumb and I want to minmax investment

>summon heysel-nut in farron keep
>literally clear out the entire area with her while using the carthus scrub sword

How do you even manage to break weapons in this game if not on purpose?
>>144766843
What CCS getting nerfed?
>>144766305
Drop the grass crest for literally any other shield, maybe a simple rapier offhand for parries/forcing players back. Switch the hands for candlestick and the staff so you can switch the candlestick to the rapier if you have to defend yourself and don't have time to cast Flashsword.
Drop the 14 faith, the requirements for the candlestick don't need to be met for the damage boost, and it's so mediocre as a weapon that it isn't even worth it. If you want decent mage fashion at low weight, try silver knight gauntlets, painting guardian legs and yuria's helmet.
>>144766865
Sorcery being shit in this game is a meme
>>144766843
Because straight swords are the katanas of DS3. Accept it and move on
I'm doing a pure luck build with bandit knife, but should i also level up dex a bit or is it useless with if you infuse with hollow ?

I don't think she needs to survive, she just needs to be summoned and be in the fight. Same with Darkmoon lady to get her set after you finish her quest.
alrighty.. I am a massive newbie and I am currently stuck between two bosses. Stuck as in I cannot for the love of the sun get past them.
The first is the dancer and the second is that dude with the frost and fire sword,
Any tips on dealing with these dudes?

>>144767096
Hollow adds luck scaling, keeps the normal scaling the weapon has. You put stats into luck for more bleed and dex for damage.
>>144768104
>Parry
well.. I guess I should learn how to do that
>Bleed
is that really all there is to it? Neat
>>144766279
130 is superior to 120 as you're still going to get invaded by 100 and can invade 120.
I lost 6 embers on abyss watchers. I almost broke my controller. Who thought it was a good idea to have two fights with no recovery.
>>144767176
You look like some kind of cleric
>>144768186
fucking nu-males
>>144768268
> well.. I guess I should learn how to do that
You should have done that long time ago. Parries are very important in DS3. Remember to bring Hornet Ring with you.
> is that really all there is to it? Neat
Yeah. You can kill the dancer quite easily with a carthus rouge'd bandit knife.
>>144768412
>no recovery
What is estus flasks, Alex?
I'll take.."Git Gud" for 800
>>144768025
remember that it's possible to kill Pontiff's clone, it doesn't have a lot of health, and feel free to beat the shit out of him as he summons the clone again. it looks like there would be an AoE when he does it but there really isnt.
As for dancer, I can't really say much. It's one of those fights where you have to learn the attack timings by repeating the fight over and over again.
>>144768025
If you're having a big issue with any boss, put your sign down and watch how they fight for a bit while helping other players. Try aggroing the boss yourself while a white phantom to take pressure off of the host and practice
>dogs literally teleport behind you
Dude this game is like so hard but fair XD

>>144768412
Are you trolling? I thought we were past the the complaints about Abyss Memers being hard. Literally just stunlock him. He can even be fucking parried.
Why is Flynn's ring so shit in DaS3? You have to be practically ass-naked with a light weapon and no other rings to even get a benefit from it. It was perfect the way it was in DaS2.
>>144768747
I forgot about that. Well, he should kill dancer first, then OCELOOOOOTTTTTEE, then champion Gundyr(good guy to test your parry skills against) and get the Hornet Ring.
>>144768782

This is incorrect.
>>144768610
>Should have learned that a long time ago
Yeah.. that's where the massive newbie part comes into play.
I have been running around with the butchers machete or whatever it has been called, two handed that knife with the stamina recovery shield on my back.
Maybe I should just get a better weapon. Have I fucked myself by playing a strength build with no dex?
>>144768652
I have seen Pat's playthrough of DS3 and know that the pontiff has a shadowclone.. But I have never gotten to that part. If I am lucky I get him down to.. 90% or something
>>144768985
HP is a bit low but there isn't much you can do about that one
>>144768985
Why 20 VIT if you're at 63%?
I'd put those points in VIG, you'll be very squishy with 27 at SL120.
>>144768782
>It was perfect the way it was in DaS2.
No, it was way too good in DS2. Now it's way too bad. Would have rather they just removed it.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDUnwfx0LNA&
Impressive. This hardcore metashitter finally said something right
>>144768985
Add Scholar's Candlestick, get dex down to 12, drop your vit that you don't need because you're at 63.33% EQ load and get 30+ attunement
>>144768985

>>144769512
>Crystal Rapier is good.
I said add a Candlestick, not remove your Rapier. Candlestick adds a 20% damage boost to all your sorceries.
>And you need sage +1 for cap with 12 dex
Those miliseconds are not important, just go through the game with 12 Dex.
Why is everything so heavy in this game
in ds1 it wasn't hard to stay under 25% but in this with weighted rings and stuff I can't really keep under 30% with a dagger and light shield
>>144769724
Oh, fair enough.
>>144769773
You need 18 dex for Crystal Rapier, anon...
>>144769512

Are undead different from unkindled?
I'm asking because you don't hollow at all in DS3 unless you let that pilgrim fuck put a dark sign on you, essentially afflicting you with the curse right? In DS1 and 2, you are the chosen undead, but in DS3 you're the chosen... unkindled? Someone explain please

You can dodge those orbs by running around. Watch speedruns, you can find a lot of info on how to fight bosses more easily. Speedrunners have developed a strategy to kill every boss in the game in the easiest way at the least possible time.

Undead > Ash
You're basically the failure of an undead who tried to link the fire but couldn't because he sucked fucking dick
hollow or raw on a sl30 bleed build?
So are people still bitching about dark sword/estocs?
Cause I almost never see them anymore.
At SL120 pontiff it's something about 30% GS/UGS, 30% dualkat/swords and the rest splits itself amongst different halberds and stuff.

the sorc hood and the sage blindfold both cause the chestpiece to come up
Shame they're fixing the wax head dragon glitch so I can't use the dusk crown without looking lame
>>144770765
why could he not link the fire
why could the chosen undead do it
why do you not have the curse in DS3 unless you let the pilgrim give it to you

Ok is this good?
the only person that the dusk crown looks good on

What would your Luck be? I'm thinking that low Raw may be better.
male Anri and Horace >>>>>>>> female Anri and Horace
Hearing Anri whine for Horace if you kill him gave me a chub.
That voice is prime fuckboi material.

>why could he not link the fire
Because he was not fit to become ember
Holy shit the game tells you this shit. Go start a fucking new character and pay attention to the intro
>>144770904
You always have the darksign you just don't hollow if you don't have dark sigils for whatever reason

Here is how you make a caster
>go 120
>go 60 int 24 att nothing else and one shot sl50 players
How do people usually play ng+?
Do people just continue leveling, or do they stop at sl120/sl150?
Is pvp active in ng+? What about ng++ and ng+++?
I've never really touched it aside from das1, where I immediately walked my overlevelled ass down to nito.
Also, is dsg starting to slow down?
lads
Dex/Faith for darkmoon blade meme build
or Quality?

>dusk crown is designed specifally to go along with one hairstyle and one hairstyle only

ng+ doesnt affect matchmaking
>>144770948
Looks good to me.

hollow main+offhand basically gives you 10 level worth of stats at +10.
Go hollow.
>>144770948

Because of parry spam. Using something like Estoc is hard because you will be hornetshotted with BKGA swap thanks to luck parry.
