This is the drake sword of DS3 correct?

Is STR worth it?

only 250 post above the limit, pretty good

Winged Knight Halberd. Strength or Quality? Should I refine it or heavy it?

So what's the deal with poise? Is it actually off?

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Ask Kobra.

Vendrick and Nashandra are the same size

Yes. Modders have been able to turn it back on and then it works

>catch a host and his phantom with a comfy bed, and backstab the purple phantom that came in as i'm fading out
None may enter the cathedral.

From has good taste
the entire straight sword weapon type is the drake sword of 3
\>Is it actually off?
yes

EXTREME CLOSE UPS

Artorias is skeltal
Nashandra is fucking huge
Lothric and Gwyndolin aren't girls
Eygon wouldn't sexualize a pure cleric

>Lorian/Lothric

Is the Black Knight Glaive any good?

>Vendrick and Nashandra are the same size

Not even remotely, dude. Nashandra's huge, but she's half Vendrick's height. Vendrick got dat soul of giants.

Donte the demon killer... Got a nice ring to it, don't ya think?

no thanks

So I'm using Greatswords with this character, not really concerned with any meta just playing so leveling is not an issue, but I have two questions.

1: Is there a way to increase swing speed? I get they're heavy weapon class, it just feels like I've seen people swing them faster is all.

2: Is poise broken? This is the highest poise armor I can wear at the moment that doesn't make me either ultra fat roll or not roll at all, but even the lowest tier enemies can interrupt every swing, from weapon arts to charged R2 and it just feels like I should have just a tad more durability to my swings than that, I would thing fat rolling is a tradeoff, but I've been invaded more than a couple times by people that are wielding ultra greatswords like fume, can fast-roll and still don't get interrupted.

>he keeps drinking estus while having a duel even though you don't

HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

once you beat lorthric does is go right into end credits or do i have time to do more stuff before ng+

Are there scans of the DaS3 artbook out there? Didn't find anything in the OP or with Google.

Try better lighting

>boss and twinkling titanite weapons need a titanite slab for +5
>you can't farm them
Fucking hell From...

>Nashandra
>tiny

???

question

do you miss out on any NPC quests if you do the dancer skip?

Yeah, it's pretty great. It and Gundyr's Halberd are probably contenders for best halberd imo

>hey uh miyazaki were doing lothric castle now, anything to add?
>zzzz... oh! uhhh..... idk just take the enemies from the first area and give them triple damage. oh and put them in big groups
>uhh okay sir..

>you can visceral gargoyles
Holy shit. 4 playthroughs later and I'm just figuring this out.

Lothric isn't even the final boss, Gwyn is

And no, you still have time

I'm assuming that you get softbanned if you turn it on?

PC SL80+ Fight Club at the High Wall of Lothric, password dsg

scared to summon Mioche(?) because he teleports with CE edition

Eygon would brutally rape her if he could get away with it

Did the skip. Can confirm that you don't

Welcome to Dark Souls

No.

Yes.

so i heard you like swamps

1. no, swingspeed is fixed
2. from literally has poise turned off, you can turn it on yourself with ce
3. good choice of sword

>farming 30 swordgrass
>for a ring that does literally nothing
T-thanks Miyazaki.

>Is there a way to increase swing speed?
nope
>Is poise broken
yes, ultra weapons have hyperarmor on their attack though

Way of the Blue incentive when?

Anyone on PS4 that can carry me through Abyss Watchers jesus fucking christ I get him to like 5% hp and get fucked - need to git gud...

1.no
2.maybe

>Is there a way to increase swing speed?
No.

>Is poise broken?
It literally isn't on yet. Assume it'll be fixed in a patch or DLC.

You can visceral crabs and buff lizards too.

Thanks it looks great
Come on, I bet you have a cool Helment senpai

It's obviously been discussed to death at this point, but do you guys think sorcery/miracles are completely useless, or just less useful than straightsword spam? I'm planning to do a run with a new build and wanted to try out faith or int but if it's going to be an exercise in futility even for pve I'll probably try something wacky like a whips/fists/daggers only build instead

I think the ones in the Profaned Capital can't be riposted because they're missing heads?

>tfw you think bloodborne was the best in the series by a country mile, but you aren't allowed to hold that opinion in /dsg/ or the air becomes filled with incessant calls of "sonyfag" and "NEVER EVER"

trick weapons allowed for the best and deepest combat seen thus far in the series
ludwig is the best boss in the series, and bloodborne's got the strongest boss pool overall (though it's not without its stinkers; it's just so large that there are that many good bosses)
it has its flaws; bell-based pvp was a poor system, farming for vials is tedious if you have to resort to it, two loading screens = sitting at a bonfire is nuts
i miss the kos parasite so dearly; god willing ds3's dlc will deliver

pass? Im like SL 80 but you get downscaled right?

...

How's pyro pvp? any good spells to look out for?

poor lost twink.

>Eygon/Irina but no Anri/Horace

Why are lower lips so huge in this? Is there any way to balance them out to look normal?

The incentive is auto-ganking invaders dumbfuck

how the fuck do you visceral crabs?

The problem with Faith is that the best miracles are locked behind endgame shit

Does armor typically look this bulky on your guys' characters too or did I make my guy too swole?

Is it just me or is III really predictable?
>Big room
>Calling ambush now
>Yep
>Every. Time.

>Chest
>It's a mimic
>Like the last 5 chests

>Crabs
>Crabs
>FUCKING-flaming!-CRABS
I'm at the Dungeons now and this shit is getting boring fast. The only thing that caught me was the Old Demon King's suicide bomb move.
Also why can't you roll under jumping enemies anymore?

where'd you get the punching gloves?

get back to bbg sonyfag

>It's obviously been discussed to death at this point, but do you guys think sorcery/miracles are completely useless

For pve it's ok safest one to play in co-op

For pvp oh man I feel so bad every time I invade a mage

They can't do jack shit to me and I always 1-2 shot them

I know you get lightning spear from SoC but I didn't fight nameless king, what do you get from him?

Quick rank the best shields in the game.

>tfw you think bloodborne was the best in the series by a country mile
tfw you're fucking retarded because Bloodborne isn't a part of the series

I wish some trick weapon clones returned in DaSIII requiring 40+ DEX, the equivalent of cuh-razy huge strength weapons like the FUGS and such.

super secret r1 spot.

so much this

Stagger them, then go for their face. I'm pretty sure it didn't work on release, since I only managed to do it after the latest update.

alot of the vanilla bb bosses felt samey
if you want to jack off about bb you have your containment thread

I named him glimbo

>barely charged R2 nets insane damage
He must have fucked up his stats, there's no other way

Horace is pure you whore

Say hi to Mr. Friendly:

Are there any buffs that are considered decent or should I stick to resins?

I usually go with slim. Looks kinda weird if they're naked, but armor looks 10 times better.

Are the claws dank enough for a bleed build?

They seem dank

>Assume it'll be fixed in a patch or DLC.
Why would anyone do that?
When devs intentionally turned it off why would they 'fix it' later by turning it back off?
It would also ruin everything even more because faggots swinging their asses / long / dark / broad and other 5 hits per second swords would put on full havels + wolf ring and mash anyone to death even faster.

chaos fireball is the only one that does damage, also it's impossible to cast without getting staggered if the other guy walks at you and R1s

source: full playtrough pyro only

in the sewer before the giant rat in undead settlement.

Any buffs means you dump 30 points in faith or int for a buff with a time limit

Stick to resins

Lightning Storm, it's not that good and the Swordspear's Falling Bolt is way better as a lightning miracle anyway

>get double invasion
>host panics and runs off a cliff when they chase him again
dangit

Caestus

Eygon would probably just make love to her, that guy is full of shit with his intimidating demeanor.

God, I miss the fucking bell.

>Why would anyone do that?
Because its still in the fucking game and if they hadn't intended on using it it WOULDN'T be in the fucking game.

>It would also ruin everything even more
You're a faggot

Deep Protection
Blessed Weapon

he's probably wearing absorption lowering rings

you want help or not?

The strongest spell buffs are fine. CMW, sunlight blade, that fire one.

Resins work fine though if you don't want to get any int/faith.
