Hey friends how would I go about making a pirate themed build in Dark Souls 3? I think it would be very fun and I'm listening to pirate music now so I need to make this pretty quick before this album ends and I become disenchanted with the idea!!

Does Stance R1/R2 even deal thrust damage? Flamberge is only listed as doing slash due to its moveset.

Curved sword for your cutlass, I think a crossbow would be fitting, silver mask is kind of pirate-y? Maybe the mask that goes with the Mirrah set?

Go for dex or maybe luck as your main stat?

The reason FUGS was nerfed, by the way, wasn't because of people using it with 50str and 700 AR.

Because it has an S-scaling in strength, it continues to scale well beyond the 40 and 60 point softcaps. It gains significant returns all the way up to 99

This is exacerbated because it had extremely high base damage. In fact, it's the only weapon in the game with S scaling in anything along with high base damage.

This meant that people 2H at 66 str had almost 900 AR with the thing. People just didn't realize this at the time because the UI didn't display the change in AR from the 2H bonus back then.

The base damage nerfs were a bandaid fix meant to cap the damage of the FUGS so that 66str builds wouldn't be able to kill endgame players in 1 combo. They went overboard both because it was a rushed correction, and because Frtomsoft clearly does not really care about the usability of ultra weapons so long as they aren't OP. It's been left like that because either fromsoft continues to not give a fuck about ultra weapons (more likely) or because they're focusing on areas of balance one at a time and simply haven't reached ultras on their priority list yet. Considering the focus of each patch so far, the latter seems plausible, but at the same time I strongly suspect that ultras simply aren't on that priority list at all, and will never be getting any kind of balance addressing unless some new kind of game-breaking exploit or overpowered ultra appears (highly unlikely).

Witch Ring barely edges everything out. But not by much so if you wanna use those rings to skimp on int/faith requirements it's perfectly fine.

There are tons of good pyromancy for low levels, here's a few:

Iron Flesh
Warmth
Great Chaos Fire Orb
Rapport
Chaos Bed Vestiges

I've recently been feeding my pvp craving that DS3 left unsatisfied by organizing and having fights in castle crashers. Everything was going fine, we were all sat at a comfortable 2bar meta, and I was having a solid time with my grey knight STR/DEF standard build, and then some red knight MAG/AGI shitter started playing and destroying everybody with his L2->Triangle magic and his jumping triangle combos and so everybody quit and now I've wandered back to DS3. What's wrong with me /dsg/? Why can't I break this curse?
>>
>>147631553
I'll for sure use the Witch Ring then, and probably both Scholar's and Priestess, but what should I put in the fourth slot? I've heard Clutch rings are terrible in PvP, so the Great Swamp ring would be best, yeah? Or should I use Sage's for faster casts?

One thing I like about Dark Souls 2 is the refreshing take on concepts such as humanity.

Because in Dark Souls 2 you're not using raw sprites of humanity anymore. The human effigies are basically purging stones specifically to absorb the undead curse.

Relax, he's taking a break.

I kinda called this right before DS3 was released :
He's such a huge Dark Souls 1 fag that he can't adjust to play anything else. He played DS2 on-camera literally just through the base game (off-screen he played much more but didn't make videos), same with Bloodborne so I'm thinking he only really liked the first Dark Souls and Demon's Souls enough to obsess over them.

Didn't think he'd tire of DS3 this fast, though.

Ashen Estus chugging is 100% fine and any greatsword wielding retard at Pontiff who disagrees isn't worth your time

For PvP you wan't great chaos orb, fire whip, sacred flame, and rapport if invading seeded worlds or defending your own

For stats you go 40 int 40 faith to cap damage and you can go 40 attunement for an extra slot

Chaos Thrall Axe is your preferred melee weapon

>One thing I like about Dark Souls 2 is the refreshing take on concepts such as humanity.

The humanity/hollowing stuff was very interesting in Dark Souls 2, too bad that the story was packed into the ending segments of the game and the characters were kinda bad so we didn't get shit like Vendrick dialogue or a coherent package about the humanity / Vendrick / Giant invasion / Dark because large parts of the game felt like a huge side area rather than working towards the main goal. To illustrate how pointless the big boss monsters in Dark Souls 2 were to the story, you can skip all of them by grinding 1 Million souls. Then you can skip fighting Ancient Dragon and you don't have to fight Vendrick either which means that the amount of story related bosses you have to fight in Dark Souls 2 is literally 2 (Giant Lord and Nashandra).

Now, I know that Dark Souls is about the gameplay more than the story, but there's very little investment in the whole thing if the big boss I'm working towards to fighting is just a big monster with nothing to them. Demon's was also kinda guilty of this, but that was before Dark Souls.

Contrast that with how they're building up the boss monsters in Dark Souls 1 or 3.
>>
>>147633797
those are just the decent spells

you still have room for one more if you go 40 attunement, so you can grab some dogshit defensive spell or some retarded shit like boulder heave or serpent

This is going to be a long post.

A pyromancer wants fast, and lightweight weapons. Here are some good ones:
Falchion/Card Captor
Thrall Axe/Hand Axe/Raw Dragonslayer Axe
Estoc/Rapier
Longsword/Lothric K***ht Sword/Broadsword/Raw ASS
Witch's Locks
And if you can afford the weight:
GSoJ
MLGS
Claymore/Raw Flamberge
And of course the grand daddy of scaling: Astora GS

Make some of them chaos for PvE, and some dark for PvP since people usually have lower dark defense

As for spells, here are most of the good ones:

Great Chaos Fire Orb(Learn how to free aim asap and you'll have a good time as a pyromancer). You can true combo this with one attack or Black Flame

Chaos Bed Vestiges. Basically forbidden sun with a disk that can cause some minor damage. Can also true combo with an attack but not sure
about Black Flame

Black Flame. Unparryable cqc pyromancy that true comboes with Combustion(the glove's WA

Black Serpent. Basically Fire Snake from DaS2 but not as powerful. But it true comboes into a hit if you're close enough

Sacred Flame. Goes through shields and allows for a setup fireball

Fire Surge. The 2FP fire damage throwing knife. Use it as much as you can to keep up the pressure

Flame Whip. Good mixup and can true combo with anything

There are some situational pyromancies that can be good too.


Warmth heals anyone in its radius for 35 hp a second. Pretty good for making a chaotic battleground

Boulder Heave is good at breaking shields but it has bad range

Yep, I was expecting you to descend down into the Abyss (is it supposed to be ruins of Oolacile?) and fighting cool Hellbeasts and gargoyles, but that's literally it, not even a miniboss along the way. At least it looks as pretty as in the concept art.

To give credit to the developers though :

DS2 and BB actually did the opposite and had some mobs and NPCs elevated to boss status. in SOTFS you fight a Guardian Dragon before the actual boss fight and the infamous ganksquad, in BB a lot of mobs could appear in the dungeons as bosses and the Madman pair were just regular hunters.

Regarding the helm :
Third fag here, but you can find the Elite Knight helm with a closed visor, the Herald starts with a new helm with an open visor, plus the herald armor is essentially Ds1 Knight armor with a white cape, and you can find the Dark Souls 1 open visor knight helm as well.

Depends on your build really. But you can't go wrong with the following:

Raw ASS/Lothric K***ht Sword
Greataxe
Bestoc/Ricard's Rapist
Claymore/Flamberge
And Uchi which you get from a certain hobo at the start

Dark Souls 3 is very good about the helmet selection, especially if you want to find ones with good visors.

I personally like the Lothric Knight helm a lot.

Because it was rushed and thrust out the door unfinished.
The L1 was originally going to be the WA but it's actually L1 moveset is cut, unfinished, and left in the game files so they just broke up the WA and moved it to the L1s.

It has no running L1 or R2 because it's an unfinished moveset full of oversights.

Probably one of the most satisfying moments in the games is walking slowly up a big flight of stairs, killing a knight with a parry, watch their ragdoll tumble down the stairs and slow walk past them while your cape flaps in the wind.

>>147637835
Thank you for admitting to being bad.
Accepting that is the first step to gitting gud.

>>147637783
yes, but the game rounds down, so if you're 30.01%, you'll be midrolling while the menu says you should be fastrolling

>>
>>147637783
30% exactly is a fastroll, but it cuts off some decimal points so most of the time you're at 30%, you're probably actually at 30.001% and midrolling

It's better to just aim for 29.something and not have to deal with invisible decimals and rounding bullshit.

There's no real point to what you're trying to make here. Caring about the "muh normies" is pretty immature, especially after Bloodborne which avoided the normiepandering trap that Dark Souls 2 marketing and part of the game design (u will die so much HUEHUEHUE :DD cutscene) fell to. The games are pretty much the same with or without the "normie influence", except that DS3 probably hadn't been made if FromSoft didn't make a break with Dark Souls 1.
