They're both invaders
>>
>>146648123
When I'm wearing the shadow set, for 29.9% weight, I can be killed with all but the weakest of 3-stage ripostes.

When I'm wearing Lothric Knight, I can survive with a sliver of HP remaining from every weapon under 650 AR.

When I'm wearing Havel's, I can survive anything with around 35% of my HP left over. When I am hit with a riposte and still standing, most hosts instinctively panic, stop trying to parry and begin to play hyper-defensively.

Sure, absorption has little value in the meta brackets, but when all core stats are softcapped, underestimating heavy armor can get you killed in situations where you shouldn't, especially when trading against opponents with both parties using heavier weapons.

So after understanding how shit ds2 sorceries and pyromancies are compared to the current ones in ds3 i've decided to look at miracles. And holy shit now this is an atrocity if i ever saw one.
>lighting spear-type miracles in ds2 are even slower than in ds3
>no hyperarmor gimmicks for melee distance trades so you will NEVER land them in pvp, way too low amount to be really usable in pve unless you're on ng+ and pump your attunement like a last motherfucker
>blinding bolt, the only at least somehow original base game miracle, has no tracking at all, the only way to land it is by casting it in water and there's like 3 locations taking advantage of that
>force has no hyperarmor and doesn't cause hard knockdown making it useless for launching people off the briges
>wrath of the gods is as shit as in ds3 but there's no lighting stake-like miracle
>virtually the only good offensive miracle in the entire game is heavenly thunder which still has the same common weakness as all ds2 spells, 100% elemental blocking small shields on top of being random and only covering a set distance
>DLC only added two miracles one of which is just second chance, the other one is the worst offensive miracle in the entire franchize
don't know if i should even bother with hexes

I've played pure caster in ds2 for almost 400 hours, since release and until ds3 came out. After trying pure caster in ds3 i can confidently say, that magic in ds3 is a magnitude worse compared to ds2.
Miracles were pretty bad though, i would agree (in PvE, in PvP they were pretty good, thanks to body buffs working). Still, at least heavenly thunder was fun to use.
Also, i'm not the one shitposting and insulting people here.

Existence of small 100% blocking elemental shields alone makes all schools of magic in DS2 irrelevant. And that's on top of an entire heap of other problems like no fast reliably hitting spells like farron dart

>>146653554
the split is irrelevant since its physical is very high too, also Yhorm's is an axe

Oh, so it's about PvP? Boy, you don't even know what you are talking about, do you?
In DaS2 PvP there are mixups and unrollables, as well as fast close range AOE attacks and good long range AOE, too. It was several magnitudes better than ds3.
>fast reliably hitting spells like farron dart
Dark Dance close range, HHSA/GHSA/CSS mixup long range.
>Existence of small 100% blocking elemental shields
That crap is useless. They see affinity, put up small shield and you blast them with CSS as they guard. Or get close and do 2 great combustions. The magic magic shied has such laughably small stability that it can be broken by soulmass css combo, or even soul shower GHSA combo (note that CSS has a little of innate shield piercing that goes through 100% magic defense). Phoenix shield i've yet to see anyone to use and miracles are good for buffs, not offense, even if heavenly thunder and force are good tools.

Yeah the fucked up.

It doesn't make you roll faster, it makes you roll SAFER. Invincibility frames start with about 8 frames, goes up to 13-14 frames (Dark Souls 1 / 3 fast rolls) at 100/105 agility.

>struggling with smelter

did you beat the old hunter dlc too? I know everyone finds different things difficult, but i find it hard to believe you are struggling with the smelter demon after beating bosses like orphan and martin lawrence. I guess if you want some advice for the smelter, toss on a gyrm shield and he'll barely hurt you throughout the entire fight.

Yes, our dear havel estoc shitposter friend. Havel shield is actually a hard counter to magic. Just like in DaS1 and 3. And being a passive ass soft counters pretty much everything but fastest of weapons in every souls game.

The great shield advice worked. I got the smelter close but died. I need a faster weapon than the greatsword.

Sorceries were bad before the recent buffs. Now they are okayish.

Faith still sucks

Really because i've been play a both of those builds recently and doing really well

>>146655778
Faith offensively does acceptable damage, especially in melee range, where, in truth, does phenomenal damage, but it requires extreme investment. My biggest problem with FAI is the inefficiency. I wish Lighting Spear was lower damage but had the highest efficiency of not only miacles, but all offensive spells, like a slower-casting Great Farron Dart.

MLGS is pretty terrible. Watcher's is good for raw low int builds. There is blue flame if you want scaling.

It doesn't stop split damage to perform way better than ds1/3 split damage, and buffs (which require stat investment to last any long) make them great.

Lighting spear needs to outright be a faith version of farron dart in speed.

Is there a video game that could even possibly EVEN BE COMPARABLE to Dark Souls 3? Let alone hope to be a better game. And I’m not talking about post rapier nerf Dark Souls 3. I’m not talking about post sorcery buff Dark Souls 3 either. Hell, I’m not even talking about base game Dark Souls 3 with the Bloodborne PvE and fucked up PvP (with the gang squads and being capable of both spamming estoc and dark sword), equipped with linear gameplay progression, a non functional poise system, meaningless armor damage reduction, with random faith requirement implanted on items so hosts can spam rolls and chug with impunity while continuously summoning additional sunbros.
>>
>>146656252
>It doesn't stop split damage to perform way better than ds1/3 split damage
DS3 split damage is powerful as fuck with the exception of lighting infusion.
DS1 elemental vitgouges are extremely popular even now.
DS2 split damage weapons had a hard counter as you could just stack elemental defenses every time you saw anyone with a glowing dildo.

And elemental scaling in ds2 is BEYOND FUCKING BAD, that's why when someone used them it was usually with base stat requirements to wield them, a buff and no serious investment into elemental damage stats. Even a fucking Steel the twitchspinner used such a build.

At least you could buff split damage weapons in das2, creating UGS damage longswords with just a few defensive stats.

Certainly better than ds2 counterpart, can do a pretty heavy damage in close battle and deal chip area damage. Given how early you can get it, it can serve as a pretty good damage dealer with some crowd control utility.

Buffs require stat investment to last any long, except flame weapon, which is worst buff in the game.

It's not a hard counter, just a soft one. It requires way too much investment at level 150 to stack resistances, no one would go for more than 50%.

>>146656807
>better than ds2 counterpart
No it's not.
>>146656987
I saw more than 10 people. But together with the ring it only gives about 30% resistances, which is helpful, but not that much AND it makes them take one ring slot, which are extremely important.
Also you could use weapon of one type and buff of the other and it would work.
>>
>>146656973
>Like, against naked builds?
chaos and dark weapons deal 10-20 less damage per hit than quality weapons while having a significant chip through the shields, even a fucking havel's shield which is why dark washing pole is very popular among tryhards, you can't even fully defend against it
crystal weapons deal a substantial damage as well thanks to crown of dusk
the only bad split damage weapon type is lighting one thanks to lighting defense being tied to endurance

You only think ds2 spells are bad because you didn't see them before they got nerfed.

All magic in das2 killed people so hard they nerfed the shit out of it. There were spells and combos that hit for 2200 or even 2600 damage.

And the problem was like everyone was a damn caster on release. Shit was broken as fuck. They nerfed down the cast speed by shit load and the damage on mostly every spell.
