My favorite part of Dark Souls 3 is how straight swords and curved swords outrange spears, what's yours?
Oh boy, just realized I dun goofed.
To get Duel Bow on NG+ on my platinum character I'm gonna have to level up with Yoel again. But I'm already at 120. Fuck.

At first I thought this was just netcode, but I've since realized that people leave a hittable shadow wherever the started a roll that lasts longer than their iframes. You can actually aim to hit where someone WAS about a second ago to catch it.

>mfw shitters are whining about the lack of clear roll breakpoints when going back from 30 to 70 rolls feels almost as horrible as going from ds1 fastroll to midroll
Is the Throne of Want from Dark Souls 2 any of the thrones present in DS3?
>>147954135
Shorter rolls are better rolls.
>>147954135
I'm so used to the extra distance you get on a fastroll that going back to midrolling throws me off significantly. It's not a good thing; I'd prefer to be proficient with both.
>>147954203
play the game and find out
>>147954203
yeah, the giant's one, i thought that was obvious
the throne of want was the throne of the giants in DS2 with smaller throne carved into it, right?
>>147954203
95% of ds2 lore is never mentioned in ds3 thankfully
thrones included
>>147953713
We need a deleveling NPC or enemy.>>147954135
>>147954135
there are barely any uses for fast rolls on melee chars though.
Its a MUST on a sorc however.
>>147954102
No, you could backstab people out of rolls because backstabs actually had a lot of forward range and a big, fat hitbox, which is why stickystabs worked.
In 3 there's literally a second, hittable hitbox of another player that's hovering invisibly behind them and that you can consistently hit.
>>147954203
No.
The DaS2 throne had a human-sized seat carved into it. The closest one in design is Lothric's throne, but it lacks a few key features.
Presumably, each Lord gets their own throne

>Grand Archive Key now drops from Dragonslayer Armour

>>147953548
>how the fuck is there no Souls anime?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA5oy41mpsY
>>147954709
No.
Just don't lock the Archives at all. Have Gotthard's appear there with his weapon after the eclipse, but just let people open Archives by reaching it.
Dragonslayer Armour already serves as the perfect twinkwall. He's immune to status effects, can't be parried, is basically uncheesable and a challenging but fair straightforward combat boss. If you kill him on a twink, you deserve access to the Archive's goodies.
Is there a list of unparryable weapons/moves
>Want DeS remake just to revitalize the PvP
>If it got remade, they'd probably remove all the glitches
>No more cracked ToB

>No more dead angle
>No more pivot casting, fizzling, or fizzle-casting
>No more instant sprints or reverse rolling
>No more item/spell parries
>No more perfect blocks
>No more backstab blocking
Even in my wildest fantasies, the world still isn't fair.
>>147954709
What's the story behind Gotthard anyway?
>500 co-op defense kills required to get a co-op miracle in DaS2
What the fuck is wrong with From Software?
>>147955256
2h ultra weapons attack R1+R2 can't be parried
whips can't be parried
all rolling and running attacks can be parried (except astora GS roll/whips)
jumping attacks cant be parried
most weapon arts can be parried, I think the spinny ones on curved swords are unparriable (??)
if you wanna be unparriable use an ultra weapon, right now astora gs is very good since the rolling attack is bugged and cant be parried
>>147955781
>they remove Thomas glitch
>pure bladestone remains just as rare
>>147955791
He's one of the Black Hands, elite hunter/assassins that serve the royal family directly. Gotthard was dispatched to help you complete your lordseeking duty and returns afterwards to find that the High Priestess and Prince have turned against one another. Presumably, he's killed attempting to reach the Prince, though by which side is not clear.
>>147955781
We will get PS3 emulator at some point and setup a netplay.
>>147955791
I think he's one of the Black Hands that deserted, Kamui is the one who stayed behind.
He probably passed away before he could finish his unfinished business at Lothric Castle, since he died before the Archives is possible that he tried to fight his former comrades (the gank squad). Daughter of Kriemlind and the Lion Knight are both loyal to the royalty, which is why Albert's sign disappears when you kill the High Priestess, and the Daughter invades you in the Untended Graves, you're trespassing a forbidden area and killed the king.
>>147956130
>Gotthard was dispatched to help you complete your lordseeking duty
so the Princes dispatched Gotthard to help the AO find his way to them and murder them? Unlikely
>>147956094
did anyone ever figure out how that glitch works
>>147956331
Where would the third one be? DLC?
>>147954481
>the DaS2 had a human sized seat carved into it
Probably made so for Vendrick.
Considering the Giants literally invaded to get it back, I think that they might've refitted it.
I think that the Thrones are how the followers of the Way of White and Jew Serpents are getting goyim to continuously link the fire in lands that don't have access to the Kiln of the First Flame. Meanwhile the Abyss people are having none of that and are sending pussy to Kayingz who are in possession of said thrones to prevent people from linking the fire(as we see with Nashandra). The Abyss Serpent Kaathe in DS3 is for some reason sending his goons out to kill the Abyss Watchers (which makes me really think he's going to be in the DLC).
But then again, wouldn't killing the Abyss Watchers help them return them to their thrones faster?
What was the lone Darkwraith even doing in Lothric High Wall? Was he there to assassinate Prince Lothric?
>>147956501
You can't add stone to a sculpture, you dork.
Once something has been carved in, it can't be reversed, you can't add back to stone that's been hewn off.
>>147956583
yeah you just cut more out, make the seat big and wide again
>>147956406
He was likely dispatched by Emma, and killed for siding with her.
>>147956331
It's possible, maybe even alongside the other two Sable Maidens, companions of Yuria.
>>147956701
I thought the Black Hands served the ruling family, not the high priestess
Starting a Deprived in DaS2, other than the Great Soul Arrow in FoFG, are there any easy spells you can grab before bosses?
>>147956501
Dickwraiths don't need to be loyal to Kaathe forever. I assume the high wall one simply invaded around but was caught.
Also, the Watchers cinders need to be taken to firelink, they could kill them and take the cinders away.
>>147956406
He has his summon sign down near the Abyss Watchers.
Also, DS3 has the most badass Crestbro since you can summon him and he kicks ass.
>inb4 scrub
I didn't summon him for the boss but to clear out the Pus of Mans.
>>147957074
Hawkwood is one of the worse summons. The only ones worth shit are Orbeck, Gotthard andthe parry god
>>147955781
>quickstand
What's that? Never heard about it.
>>147954015
>using spears
literally why?
what do spears do that halberds or something else don't do better?
>>147956803
Hence his untimely demise.
Gotthard is described as being a former knight, who was promoted to the rank of Black Hand for his swordmanship. The Knights serve the High Priestess, and the High Priestess also served as the Prince's Wet Nurse and, likely, regent while the King was indisposed, Queen MIA and Prince too busy being crippled and gay to succeed. In other words, Gotthard was Black Hand in name only and in reality was not loyal to the royal family - no surprise considering the King's state of mind. Kamui stands guard top the archives, but Gotthard was murdered at their entrance, likely while attempting to complete his lordseeking duty.
>>147955781
the only thing I'd want to be fixed is running firestorm
>>147954481
So why exactly do those guys get their own thrones? Like, who built them exactly?
>>147957449
running pokes
>This game seriously has a "hit the glowing body part" boss

>do coop at NK
>get summoned by host who already has one phantom

>suddenly the sorcerer invader I wasn't aware of shows up behind us
>instead that the host GOES THROUGH THE FUCKING FOG GATE he walks to the invader like a rabbit running into a lions mouth
>host immediately gets fucked in the ass by a CSS
Now that's just embarrassing.
>>147957548
>who built them
Probably the same fags that build a firelink shrine every damn game
>>147957592
Those are easily avoidable, and hardly make up for the many shortcomings that spears suffer from.
>>147957548
it's all in the mysterious, as-of-yet unclarified mechanism of the Bell of Awakening.
Hopefully we learn more about it in the DLC
>>147957734
No good pyro halberd.

>>147958321
I wish the Red Hilted Halberd had the DS2/Demon's Souls moveset.
>>147953852

>>147957449
spears are the only thing that can reliably fight against halberds
>>147958389
I always thought that the Bell was just reviving the last 4 guys to link it, it isn't "strong" enough to go back any further than that
>>147958458

Using toggle escape to quickly get up from a knockdown.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqkZ1XToI0s&feature=youtu.be&t=277
IIRC you need to be holding left on the analog stick when you get hit in order for it to work.
>>147956449
I don't know for certain, but my guess is that it's just a case of a certain memory address in the UI being used for more than one purpose, similar to Pokemon's Missing No. Or some variable relating to how the UI works not being reset properly due to Boldwin's shop being close in an unexpected way. There are some other minor glitches with the UI that aren't as noticeable/exploitable, but are kind of similar. I can't remember them off-hand, though, been fuckin' ages.
>>147957658
Nailing a Host with Phantoms right before they go through the fog gate is one of the most satisfying things in the series. My best kill was in New Londo Ruins when a host with 2 phantoms was almost at the boss when I caught up to them, backstabbed the host and pushed him off a ledge,followed and finished him off while his phantom just watched.
Can you kill everyone at Firelink Shrine and still win?
>>147959134
>win
???
>>147959134
Yeah, you can still beat the game with everyone at Firelink dead in any game there's a Firelink.
>finally beat Nameless King after submitting to the curved sword meme
at this point i wonder why you would ever want to use anything but curved/straight swords for pve, since every other weapon is way too fucking slow
>>147958389
What sort of Lord was Iggy?
>>147959134
win what?
>>147959090
When my host died I just shouted "hey!" to ridicule him. What kind of arse fondler waits for the invader while the fog gate is right there?
>>147956993
Not really, you need to kill at least one boss generally
Dragonrider in particular, then Felkin / Licia
Dark Orb is vital
>>147959134
If you kill andre he will respawn and will say fuck you in a nice way. The old lady will increase the price of every single item by 20%. Fire keeper just respawns.
You can kill anyone else without any actual consequences

>>147959427The game.
What's good level to have my endurance if I want to rely on spellcasting for PVE and not bothered for PVP (on ng)?
I set it at 28 for melee before and was fine.
I'm leaving dex/str/vit at base, except one point in dex for longsword. I'm guessing 15 since it's not too low or too high. I'm trying to not use shields either. So basically rolling for avoiding damage, spells only, longsword if I run out of estus/taking down low HP enemies.
>>147959386

Iggy was an interesting Lord. He wasn't the smartest, the bravest, the most honorable, or even a very good person to begin with. Honestly, he was kind of an asshole really. He was however an heir to a powerful kingdom, but he had no interest, in ruling because he was actually kind of lazy, and since he had no heirs he was forced into the throne. His entire reason for Linking the First Flame was just so he wouldn't have to be king. It also doesn't help that he was arranged to marry a princess from another kingdom. The princess in question was somehow even an even bigger asshole than Iggy.
Iggy's last words before Linking were the following: "I'd rather burn myself alive than marry that lady!"
There have been many causes for why one would venture to the Kiln of the First Flame, but Iggy was the one one who did it for the sake of spite.
>>147959837

>>147960116
The reason for this is that the game starts loading Archives right before the the boss fog door.
If you stand around the fog door without crossing for a few minutes and rotating your camera all around, you'll get almost no stutter during the actual fight.

Damn you From for forcing me to get a PS4, but I guess Bloodborne is worth it.
Question about the Ring trophy, if I miss a ring can I get that ring on NG+?
I missed a lot of rings due to sideuqests I fucked up (like that one mage guy who I never gave a scroll to because I could never find one or that one guy who you need to draw your true power from)
>>147960123
Painted world was really good, it had a nice touch to it, being isolated from the other level was nice in a way, better than the Lord souls level, maybe because it wasnt such a clusterfuck.

Perseverance only really works well against idiots mashing R1 (easy to beat without it) 1H estocs/daggers/spears (they deserve to get fucked if they don't swap to 2H to counter you) and ultra weapons.
The actually popular and effective meta weapons crush cestus and don't give a fuck about perseverance. The only thing really notable about the cestus is the fact that claws and ultras literally cannot do anything against them.
>>147961079

But why is it always blues? In every game?
About to play Demon's for first time.
I've played DarkS and DS2, what should I expect?
Is it worth going back?
Pike weapons should have Hyperarmor. What the fuck is the point of LKLS's passive if that shit doesn't have hyperarmor?
>>147962627
the best anti-twink early weapon in ds1 has no scaling
in ds2 scaling is shit to a point you're better off going with fire longsword or some blunt weapon till you get enough agility to roll and not get fucked by shockwaves
>>147962851
You shouldn't even be getting hit if you're playing at your optimal range.
>>147961680
Learn hyper armor frames.
>>147962851
Pikes, axes, hammers, reapers all need hyperarmor.
>>147962902
I just want to piss on Straight Sword kiddies' parade the same way I do with Greatswords.
>>147961207
I've found it good in low-ish level invasions. Really most people outside of duelling R1 spam constantly and the latency doesn't punish them for it.
Trust me, it feels so good to use Perseverance and just go ham on some unknowing guy.

>>147962849
It's still good. I did 1 and 2 before DeS, and I had lots of fun with it. However, I was disappointed with the limited armor amount, and I really don't like the upgrade system.
Fuck this game's cystal lizards though.
>>147962849
No movesets
There is always one best in class weapon that just does more damage than the rest
Magic is unimaginably overpowered
You want Second Chance which requires 2 faith slots and 100 MP, you dont need to level faith or int beyond that

Come up with ideas for bosses/mechanics for the DLC.
Mine:
Boss starts on a mount and the second phase is about fighting them on foot. The guy's riding a big beast instead of a regular horse(it's funny, there's only 1 horse in Dark Souls series and it's in Dark Souls 2).
The return of Looking Glass Knight summon except the boss prioritizes players and his windup to summon the player can be intercepted so it won't be too bullshit and boss summons can't heal.
Pilgrims of the Dark return as a PVE/PVP Covenant that rank up by hunting Legionnaires. The Pilgrims act as gatekeepers in the new Abyss dungeon invading people who enter. The DLC also unlocks Bloodborne-style random genned dungeons.
Areas with empty knight armors that start coming alive if a player dies in their proximity. This goes for all kinds of players so it includes invaders and people online who are connected to you dying and creating a bloodstain in the area.
The trick is that you won't know when they're going to come alive. Basically the gist would be that the area would otherwise not be too hard, but people invading and getting killed there would lead to other people getting killed, and prompting the enemies to come alive for other people. You could also passively grief people by suiciding in that area
>>147963426
I've lost 100k while leveling, fuckface.

whats the pvp meta level at the moment
is it split between 100 and 125?

This is incredible, does anything else even come close to having as diverse a moveset as this thing

Of course it's strike, look at the brick.

>>147964126
What do you think.
Give me your best theory.
Considering everything, from gameplay to lore and overall atmosphere, we can say that:
DarkS2 > Demon's > DarkS > DarkS3
>>147962849
>What should I expect?
Overpowered as fuck magic.
Do yourself a favor and don't use magic.
Otherwise the game has the greatest atmosphere after DS3.
Oh yeah, and the game has item burden so store all of the shit that you don't immediately need at Stockpile Thomas, otherwise you'll get overburdened with shit. Fortunately you can use equipment upgrade materials at the Blacksmith even if you keep them at Stockpile Thomas.
Why are DS1 and DS3 rated M? They seem more like T games to me. You mostly just fight inhuman monsters and "zombies", and when you do fight humans, they're phantoms.
More importantly, what makes DS2 T instead?
>>147964126
You know how there is paralel world in dark souls, time is convulted ect and you sometimes see phantom of other character ? Well in a other world, Shanalotte is getting fuck against a tree
>>147961902
Dark is better for pvp
Player characters get free fire defense for leveling strength, so every quality build has fire as their highest resistance.
Fire ABS is also the most common and the easiest to access without a major investment in vit. Ostensibly, it's the worst pvp damage type
Flat defense against dark only goes up from leveling faith, and nobody wastes points in faith so it's a pretty safe bet. High dark ABS is also fairly uncommon and it's a common weakness to otherwise stat-efficient armors.
>>147963704
>boss has a huge healthpool, but also has around 4 weak points scattered around his body
>doing enough damage to each weak point opens up a riposte, but after each riposte boss gains new mechanics
>boss becomes fucking crazy strong and has a huge moveset once you've destroyed all but the last weak point, making it so that you have to plan carefully to hit the last weakpoint and kill the fucker
gimmick boss done right
>>147964224
Das1 will go down as one of the greatest games of all time and a uncommon example of competent development in it's era
Nothing else will be remembered.
>>147964254
1 : Quelaag's boobs.
3: the horror themes probably.
Usually sexual content gets games the mature rating.

I liked Drangleic more than Boletaria and Lordran.

The contents on this mans testicles solidified into a humanoid mass due to the sexual frustration of not being able to lace up the fire keeper?
>>147964650
>horror themes
so it got an M rating just because of those fucking jumpscare corpses in irithyll dungeon?
>>147964650
DS2 had Tark's wife boobs.

Cool. Are there any particularly good/fun innate-dark weapons?
>>147963704
First one is literally NK.
I hoped AW would've been the Monk/LGK.

thanks for the laugh anon, I needed it
>>147964472
>Competent development
The technical side was anything but competent. The endgame is barely finished and the game is still full of glitches.
>>147964767
It's a phantom of a dude in another world fucking her in the pussy, and the cum is leaking out in this one because time is convoluted.

Playing DS2, do I level up Adaptability? I know it's the spiritual successor to Resistance, which you never leveled up, but more I-frames on rolls and quicker Estus makes it sound worth it. Like seriously, it takes an eternity and a half to Estus in this game.
>>147964871
>guy asks for innate dark weapons
>you link him infusions
ebin
>>147964982
Well that one deals lightning damage instead of fire.
>>147964982
does slightly mroe dmg
>>147965008
Yes. You go from having the i-frames of fatrolling to the i-frames of ninja flipping, all from leveling a stat a lot.
This is one reason why I hate trying to use a big weapon in the game, it's so easy to dodge.
>>147964806
Only Dark Hand has innate dark i think
>>147965036
Oh shit sorry famalam, here's the exhaustive list of Dark weapons:
Dark Hand
Now find a weapon with good Dark scaling and infuse it, bitchboi
>>147964447
Sounds like a cross between Curse greatwood and Wolnir.
But that sounds interesting.
>>147965115
what about range?
>>147965008
Level it until agility is 100 so you can have DS1 tier I-frames.
Don't end up like me on my first playthrough.
>>147964982
More interesting move set lamer weapon art
Currently on NG+6 in DaS1. I never actually beat the DLC. For the life of me, I cannot beat Artorias now that I am trying. What the fuck am I doing wrong?
Level 206, Gsword and shield of Artorias, full black iron, havel's and FAP ring. I am using power within for the fight, but it usually runs out beforehand or I just die.
Any tips? Is Artorias just a hunk like that in NG+6?
>>147964254
ds3 is bloody as fuck
is using CE to make characters in DS3 a possibility without getting softbanned? im assuming it'll be fine so long as all the stats match up.
>>147965339
>What the fuck am I doing wrong?
YOU'RE ON NG+6
>>147965232
yeah but does wolnir really gain new mechanics? doesn't he just get a fire version of all his usual attacks and some meager fire stomp?
i wouldn't know because he dies so fast
>>147965383
I just wanted to make a really high level character.
>>147964254
DS2 has toned down blood effects and cartoonish graphics compared to even DS1. Every enemy you hit either emits a puff of smoke or just a generic slash effect.
DS3 in particular is more bloody and has more horror elements, but not to the height of Bloodborne.
The deliberate T rating in DS2 just makes it look like more of a cashgrab than what it already is.
