you are not going to pay attention to someone's VIT / stamina just by a quick glance to see if they're cheating or just have a really stupid build
besides that at Sl120 everyone is either going to have a 40/40 build or a 60 int build, no one levels VIT

this game is not deep enough that looking at someone's stats gives you an advantage when all you gotta do to win is use CCS and 2hr1 against absolutely any build or playstyle

So, what are DS3's early game available godly weapons?

In DS1 you could obtain the Uchigatana relatively early which did pretty good damage on its' own and the bleed damage only made it even better, and the Zweihander was also available from the moment you arrived at Firelink Shrine and could deal out shittons of damage and stagger easily.

In DS2, the mace could be bought about a half-hour into the game and could carry you through most of it, especially if you were one of those faggots who bought two and powerstanced them to stagger fucking everything.

What would DS3's worryingly powerful/can carry you through the whole game weapons that you can get relatively early in the game be?

Depends on your build of course. Just go to Andre and see which infusions make it deal more damage. The upgrade/infusion screen doesn't give you a flat AR menu like in 2 but I'm sure you can do the math.

Uchi is available right off the bat, halfway through High Wall you have a Deep Battle Axe (moveset might as well be a straight sword), and the Astora Straight Sword.

Infuse Astora with Raw early on, if you go Quality you can upgrade to Refined later, if you go mage keep it Raw.

Red Hilted Halberd near the end of Settlement is good too. And I would highly advise when you get your first Fire Gem, put it on something even if you are going Quality. Fire causes a special stagger on tons of enemies, like those annoying teleporting dogs.

Thanks for your input guys! As for my build im aiming toward a Strength and Faith build, which I guess a Holy Gem or whatever is called would be perfect for infusing it. I'll go see Andre and see what works best for me.

If all goes to shit I'll upgrade to the bigger clubs, im almost able to wield them

>>147484983
>Infuse Astora with Raw early on, if you go Quality you can upgrade to Refined later, if you go mage keep it Raw.
What? No. Never do this. ASS has buttfuck scaling and high base. Refined gives it D/D scaling. Honestly, you don't want to infuse it with anything but Raw, Fire or Deep.

Yes, Lightning scales with faith, but not all weapons scale equally. I don't have much experience with the Reinforced Club, but the wiki says it's becomes C/A scaling, Str/Faith respectively.
Again, none of this is stuff you have to decide right now. If by the end of your build you find that Lightning infusion affords a higher AR than Heavy then go for it. Also remember that elemental infusions can't be buffed like in DS2, if you plan on casting weapon buffs.

Newbie here. What's the best starting gift? I know in DS1 it was the master key and DS2 was the petrified something, but what's the best choice in DS3?

Also, what covenant would you faggots recommend? I went sunlight covenant in DS1, bellfags in DS2. I don't really do traditional PVP but I liked getting randomly summoned whilst I was doing PVE to suddenly defend the belltower from shitters. But I also like getting summoned to help people out.

Also, can't decide between knight or deprived, I don't think I'll be doing any magic this time around though, so probably knight.

Why did they get rid of buffing infused weapons anyway? Was there anything particularly broken about it in DS2? I don't seem to recall anything about it being out of hand. Hell infusions if anything seemed overall better handled there.

Infusing with a element something already had meant a lower base penalty and you could buff infused weapons. And infuse bows/crossbows!

Even if they limited it to same-element buffs only, it should still be doable (ie, Flame Arc on a Fire or Chaos weapon, but no other buffs)

Except in the Settlement you can do the path with the Giant before the path with the boss, and get a branch from the Giant before the area he shoots you at.

Life Ring if you expect to take alot of damage early on, but like always you can buy one after a bit. On my last few characters I took the Fire Gem and infused a weapon with it before entering High Wall. Alot of Hollows, Dogs, and certain other enemies go into a spazfest when burnt. The split damage isn't that bad early on when you don't have the stats to utilize scaling.

Just be careful to never attack barrels with said fire weapon. Oh the fun to be had under the second bonfire.

Anyway what curse did back then is if you get cursed you'd die instantly and then you'd have a lot of your HP cut until you get the curse removed by an NPC or by buying the item for curing it.

This made Basiliscks even more unnerving than just their appearances.

Now getting cursed just makes you die instantly

It wasn't my favorite mechanic. There's only about two places you can really get cursed; in the depths and in Ash Lake, and if it happens in the latter (without the Lordvessel) then good luck getting out of there.
I personally didn't like it. While permanence does indeed create a similar type of urgency, getting cursed effectively halted any progress you were making since you wanted to cure that shit ASAP, which meant grinding 6k souls at least with half your health and then running back to where you were.

You basically have to agro multiple basilisks at once or corner yourself to be at any risk of curse in DaS. It's not an issue if you play smart.

Hell no
>>
>>147489240
They're an army of undead who pledge themselves to the Wolfsblood so that they can better ward off the abyss, not to become immune to it. In fact, their constant exposure to it probably exacerbates their corruption, but some time before their resurrection they linked the fire and became Lords.
There's nothing that suggests they're anything more than regular dudes 'n gals that drank weird ass blood Warcraft-style to gain special anime powers.
>>
>>147489240
But the wolf blood coming out of their bodies wasn't related, it was actually related to the Abyss Watchers being collective lords

And they were susceptible to the Abyss, seeing as one of the Watchers in the fight is literally corrupted by it

Being human =/= exempt from abyss dark jizz corruption entirely

That's not how it works my man. Helping people as a white only raises your character tendency.

You're Pure White by now, so you'll have a 20% damage boost in soul form. Also, go get the ring from the Monumental for another 20% boost ring.

So here's how my SL20 poison invader worked out
My weapons were story teller staff and raw rotten ghru curved sword.

the ghru CS is not very good, its very short. I'm going to keep trying this with a raw rotten ghru spear instead.

The only time this build worked as intended was as a watchdog. When I was doing invasions at undead settlement a blue was summoned before the poison could kill them. Even at SL20 with the story teller's staff poison damage is negligible.

As far as I know, only Siegward and Hawkwood are.

How fucking hard can this shit be
You want to see the king. He's off in that big black tower you can see looming over the horizon from virtually everywhere in the game
Before that, you need to buff yourself up with the souls of 4 great ones.
There are 5 paths out of the hub, and 4 great ones. Each path leads to one

Every path is linear, you literally cannot progress down a path and not find a great one at the end. It's not possible.

Huntsman, you go back to the path to Hiede's from Majula after killing the Dragonrider.

For the other location, look for a hole in the rockface in Majula on the path to the start of the game. Go past the dude with the blue sword. Branch can be found in one of the houses at No Man's/in a chest after Sinner.

Rest a bonfire before pulling the lever.

Just starting my first run on dark souls (I've played ds2 and 3, bloodb through) and was wondering a couple of things:
Is an intelligence build with an enchanted right hand weapon, left hand sorcery a good starting target?
If so, start with a pyro or similar character, or something a bit more durable to get through the early stages?
I'd love to just transfer my ds2 guy straight over, a hex/ dark weapon build with medium armour. Are there hexes in ds?
I have no idea if dark souls is harder than the other 3 games I've played.
I realise I could google all this, but I'd rather talk to you nerds ;^)
