I'm terrible but greataxes are super fun.

knight slayer, horsehoof, chloranthy, havel's

Damn these threads go fast!!!

WHO WOULD WIN IN A FIGHT
SULLYMAN OR FUME K***GHT

I wish it had a better WA.
The Great Machete is honestly much better until Yhorm's is +5. But it also has amazing aesthetics

Wish I was a twitch streamer so people would drop me souls and items

favor, chain, hornet, chloranthy
Also, am I a douchebag for carrying a backup dark sword for when I'm invading and have to go up against ganksquads?

Wasn't aware how BB my general playstyle was until the host of the CC fightclub pointed it out to me

artorias with both arms and unbroken legs

>knight slayer, horsehoof
Do they actually do fuckall or are they Wolf Ring-tier?

sage, pyro, other pyro, fire clutch

Honestly lads I think the MLGS would be a pretty good weapon if you got hyper armor on the charged R2s/Weapon Art

come on we both know that guy sucked

they wouldnt be broken if not for the straight sword phantom range

fume unquestionably

Wow, this armor does look good on my toon.

I need to fix the helmet though

Take it down a notch Kenshiro

>horsehoof
wat
and why the knight slayer ring
literally no reason, just have an backup sacred flame

Fume without a doubt.

So today after basically 4 days without going online i got to launch the game after patching and i have this invalid Data message.

However i can still conect and invade,I never used any Trainer or CE.

Should i just remove my saves and start over ?

>Those boots with drakeblood armor
I considered that a million times, different boots were also tried.

You're a braver user than I.
(Although I feel like the gloves could be changed.)
Fapping
Havel's
Hunter's
Knight's

Is low level PVP just completely dead?

I tried invading in the Watchdog area but every fucking time I get a bunch of twinks with endgame weapons and spells

Anybody wanna do a fisticuffs fight club?

with longer roll distance you'll avoid the phantom range every time

If i bought all of Orbecks shit before he went and got himself killed, can i give his ashes to yuria instead of the maiden without missing out on any items

>Best bosses
That's debatable. While I can agree on the others, III got much superior bosses in both design and action

You're right, I don't get why more people don't like Dark Souls 2.

that really shouldnt be an easy though

like just nerf the damn range

I have some questions on magic scaling;

Do dark miracles and sorceries scale with faith and intelligence just like in dark souls ii?

Does pyromancy scale with faith and intelligence, and to what extent? Also, do dark pyromacies scale more than normal ones?

Fume. He is almost completely immune to Fire and has massive Magic resistance. Sulyvahn's fancy moves don't mean shit, Raime will facetank his way through it.

Stopped right there.

...

Horsehoof is really good for bullying a lot of the PvE enemies and shield shitters, free massive damage with no effort. I use knight slayer with yhorm machete because I'm not a homo that uses magic of any kind.

move Nameless King to medium
Oceiros to top
and I'd say it's a good list.

Fun memes

>beat Yhorm
>look up NPCs on wiki

>tfw missed a shitton of them/their quests

does anyone think that Dark Souls kind of rips off Berzerk? i mean, there's some really obvious similarities

not that guy, but my stamina bar is huge and my weapon swings pretty beefily, sometimes 2-3 R1s is all i need to get a riposte in.
i like it.

...

Anyone?

FAP, Havels, Steel, Chloranthy or Estus depending on if I'm fight clubbing or invading

YES

Looks like....

...He was shock.

YYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH

Yeah not set on the gloves yet, just want them in leather and a similar shade
but I love those boots, love the whole 16th century half armour look as well, but yeah knee high boots are the shit
I hope they add similar stuff to this in DLC

united in common worship

JUST

I can't stop using the uchigatana parry

It's so fun

It's been heavily influenced by Berserk from the very beginning.

I can get behind this

>see red attack up aura
>use a throwing knife

nice use of that ring slot, friendo

Drakeblood GS deserves its own slot where no other weapon is allowed

Skill Required Tier ?
PvP viability Tier ?

>800 DMG FROM AN INESCAPABLE CAESTUS COMBO

No, that doesn't make any sense. Also it's spelled Berserk.

>resorted to summoning a sunbro and using a +2 ice meme sword to kill Dragonslayer Armor
I'm so ready to be done with this playthrough, I just don't care anymore.

Hornet, Knightslayer, Chloranthy, Favor

Knight slayer is great and downright ridiculous with R1 spamming weapons, I don't know why people need horsehoof.

>that order
In Ds1 it made sense for favor to be in the first slot since the second was the easiest to get to, but now it makes sense to put your more swappable rings in the early slots.

Notice how the phantom is pressing buttons other than R1? Those aren't the darksword users most people are talking about.

I still cheekily taunt darksword users even when they don't spam R1

>knight slayer
feels fucking great man. On all my heavy weapon builds just pump enough ENDto be able to send three R1s. You'll gaurantee stagger regular shields with two r1s then get a riposte for a gorillion damage.

Index is a pretty shit fight because it's just a camera struggle, moreso than usual
It's not a real challenge if you're getting hit because the camera is blocked and you have no idea what's happening

He's been taking little things from berserk since demon's souls

Miyazaki is a berserk fanboy

When should I stop leveling faith? I was thinking 40, but a friend of mine said to level it to 60 for an optimal faith build. And now I'm not sure.

What is wrong with the crystal sage? It isn't that bad.

I don't see what you're getting at

Never been a big PVP in BB or other DS but god damn it's fun in this game. Wolf knight's great sword is super fun too.

Post builds

Your friend is retarded.

50 at most
45 is fine to stop at

Chloranthry, Life Ring, Havel's, RoSP/SSR

I don't think anyone in the entire dev team has ever even heard of Berserk.

Move ancient wyvern to it's own tier of pure shit

I feel kind of bad for using the knight and hunter rings since they add about 60 AR

Which is a shame because berserkfags are the worst

Like, what are the odds you'd take off the ring of fap in a fightclub compared to something like the knightslayer, which is meaningless if the opponent doesn't have a shield? I always put stuff thats useful based on my opponents conditions first and rings that are useful in general second.

Hes saying if you need to swap a ring for certain situations, its better to have your non-necessary rings in the first slot.

Goddamn Hodrick

you can literally softban people by attacking them after setting a memory address with CE
