use rapier instead of estoc so you can parry with l2 and poke with l1

DOES LEVELING LUCK ACTUALLY EFFECTIVELY HELP WITH BLEED

...

>discovered Great Chaos Funball and Chaos Bed Vestiges just two days ago
>they're already nerfed
NICE
This webm is now more relevant than ever

I'll be honest I would not be able to fucking get this twink through bosses without the fucking dark sword. So thank god.

Someone from From's balance team got OHK by darkbead in ds1 and he will never let us forget it

Am I missing something about parrying?

People says that it's piss easy to parry enemies but I can't seem to get the timings down.

Of course, it doesn't help that enemy attacks are quite unpredictable now.

xth for agreeing

JESUS TITTY FUCKING CHRIST WHY

It's piss easy to parry players, enemies can be weird.

Champion Gundyr is kicking my ass...

any tips for melee only ?

Raw ass is destroying bosses on my twink. Dancer and Oceiros never stood a chance.

if you're using a ugs you're getting kicked in the face

This

>PC

Hit him harder.

Roll and attack when there's an opportunity. Literally the same way you kill everything that isn't a gimmick boss.

>patches seem to recompile the several gigabyte game files
RIP my SSD

Dodge to his left hand side, attack after he does the kick.

Longsword +10

so whats the best starting class?

knight is a meme? do i need to reroll?

left shift to focus fire

POST FULL COLORED VERSION NOW

I WANT TO SHIT ON IRINA WITH EYGON, WHILE ALSO SMASHING ANYONE WHO EVEN LOOKS AT HER FUNNY WITH A HAMMER

Try parrying. It took me 12 times to get the timings right but then i killed him with ripostes on

Post fun weapons/combinations you've been using
>Lmao 3kat
>Greatsword of Judgement

The fuck, how

DS1 poise would be fairly balanced now that you actually have to invest in a stat that gives you nothing but equip load to get it, as long as hyper armor was slightly nerfed

The problem with DS1 was that you gained equip load just for investing in stamina, which everyone needed

Roll a lot and parry his stab, don't stay close to him for more than it takes to hit him or you will be kicked

>not playing on PC
The guy wasn't cheating, From's netcode just broke down.

deprived

>not using RAW ASS

lol

How do you break the legs? I've killed it thrice without doing it

Reminder that Obscuring Ring is 100% MANDATORY if you're invading.

Insider here, my dad works for Fromsoft. Gwynevere will reappear in the DLC as a Priscilla type boss that you can spare. Also her tits got even bigger.

Best for what purpose?

>Cant log in to the game server

The fuck From? God damn japs

What are some oddities you encountered while co-op? I've had enemies not spawn properly, moonwalking all over the place, running into pits or just giving up on life like this gargoyle I encountered while being summoned by my friend.

if you get greedy you're getting kicked in the face, also he can totally kick you off the cliff

I just summoned as many phantoms as I could with the dried finger and... this is what happened.

Servers are probably still down

Anyone have a black knight glaive build I could work with? Do I just get the base stats for it, or does it actually scale well when upgraded?

>The fuck, how
I don't even fucking know I was wailing on his legs then all of a sudden he slams down on the ground and his legs were in stone pieces around him.
I found out I could riposte him while he was crawling around and swinging wildly too.

Patch working properly. They removed the cancer from the game: white piggus : ^)

Anybody check if they've fixed greatshields?

what about higgus?

>cheats to get a guaranteed 1 hit kill weapon effect
>loses anyways
pcucks everyone

also, you can buy gwynevere boob armor from patches if you give him a gorillion souls

The Majula piglets are in this game?

>Patch hanging at 100% on Steam
SEND HELP

Be fast.

If you're using a slow swinging weapon, you can forget it.

Learning his patterns is essential, in phase 2, when he does a punch he almost always follows up with a shoulder barge for instance.

You need to be in an out, a weapon with a quick rolling R1 is a good idea, roll right into R1, hit once then roll the hell away.

Honestly, I just kept fighting him until I was moving on an almost instinctual level against him.

So the answer is yes?

>so whats the best starting class?
Figure out the stats you want in endgame, do some grade-school math, and figure it out from there.

>knight is a meme? do i need to reroll?
Knight's good when you're starting. Honestly having 100% perfectly optimized stats isn't necessary enough to qualify a reroll unless you actually enjoy the idea of starting over.

Hey guys, I need a picture of dark souls with text "Shit's fucked, all your friends are dead". I lost it and I really need it back, pls

It's the amount of hits on his legs, so if you attack his bum or wield a high damage weapon, you'll most likely kill him before his legs give out.

Is the Sword Master/Dancer exploit fixed?

>Gottlose Haupstadt
>Flammenbogen
Jesus Christ why does everything in german sound so fucking intense? I want to drink the blood of my enemies from a Flakon.

I have no friends to coop with. Or any purpose to coop even.

people are saying magic is nerfed

wheres the proof tho

summon sword master. let him tank gundyr's hits and the fight will be piss easy.

You know what the next patch needs to nerf?

Fists. And Greatswords. And Reapers too, just for the hell of it.

Du you even hast?

>that webm

needs more bans

>You can't R1>L2>R2 anymore after the patch
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?

But summons are for pussies user

>aborted because of a worrying amount of host writes
>move it back to an HDD
>it's now redownloading the whole damn game
Fucking nice.

Holy fuck I can't stop laughing
People who don't know what the Obscuring Ring is are the best

I don't know, I broke his legs in my first playthrough but didn't in my second. I guess you just have to deal x%+ of damage to his legs and the last hit has to be there too

...

It's not like servers are up yet

attacks other than r1 being viable was a bug

The message is clear. From wants you to use an estoc or a dark sword. All of the other weapons are in the game as a joke.

Translated nip sliders from last thread.

Haven't tested it myself, let me know if anything is wrong or needs changing.

>walking slowly like an edgy retard

How are you supposed to do anything as an invader. Host can just run to bonfire or boss door and summon a bunch of phantoms. Or you spawn in fucking surrounded by them.

I was going to make a new character for pvp but I don't know if I can be bothered.

i-it's just one summon...

i managed to beat champion gundyr first try because of sword master

MONDLICHT SCHMETTERLING

Shit was cheaper than straight swords and you know it.

Luck + hollow infusion gives about 5+ more points of bleed damage on a weapon. Doesn't seem like much, but bleed resistances mean that even 5 points per hit, over multi hits of a fast weapon adds up to a lot.

This combo just narrowly misses out on bleed some opponents out, even with the luck + bleed resin. Since the bleed pop is what makes it really standout from the other halberds spin2wins, more bleed damage, as much as possible is vital here, imo.

I got you senpai

Miyazaki can be somewhat kind for how cruel he is

doing god's work user, thanks a lot
Really thanks faggot

what the fuck is this

it's an 88 mb download

it downloaded in two seconds

is it manually reassembling the entire fucking install or some stupid incompetent shit?

You have to be a real bastard sometimes, but it's worth it if you pull it off.

Fix your damn servers from.

Hah, that chin.

kek

Your best bet is to invade in the area after Pontiff. Aldrich bros are the only reliable source of equalizers you'll find.
