/dsg/ - Dark Souls General

Looks stupid.

Works all too well for what it is

My only complaint is the low stability blocking with it has because of the reduction from infusing it with a Refined gems

>no dual stances
you are just gimping yourself for no gain.

If you fuck up and let Sirris die while fighting Creighton, is her questline fucked forever for that playthrough?

...

I don't think I'm winning any of these trades with sunlight spear.

Perseverance gives damage reduction, faltering prayer does not.

i'm pretty sure horace and anri were the only two people to escape being eaten by aldrich?

horace can't talk because of torture, probably

I miss powerstancing.

Invaders can eat fucking shit!

>this faggot in the dsg fc literally resorting to estoc+greatshield

lmao

>it's another "host thinks that he'll ever hit me with the Dragonslayer Greataxe lightning attack" episode
why do people think that these types of attacks will work?

PC FC at High Wall.

Pass is dsg. Put your signs on the wood thing.

>1v1s
>surprised people minmax
lmao honorable is for fags

And so is estoc but that's beside the point

I double-dog-dare you to try and protect a host from me you little bitch. Last blue phantom I saw fucking black crystalled out.

You should be able to try again. She died once to her gramps and I could just try again.

>Oroboro is doing nothing but R1 spamming with a darksword in the artorias scrub gear
>Absolutely not trying in any way
>Is killing everyone he encounters

HE'S SL120
+10 WEAPON

THERE'S NO EXCUSE

the best powerstance

F

>gotthard swords remind me of rakuyo from BB
>absolute shit with them unless i roll-cancer

Fuck. How to git gud with them?

>lightning looks absolutely fucking GORGEOUS
>does absolutely SHIT damage
why this?

How do I pyro?
Thinking about stopping around sl 60 weapon upgrade 6.

Holy shit, the Grand Archives can fuck right the hell off. Specifically the gank squad at the end, holy shit. At least I finally finished my fashion.

Which should I attempt first: Twin Princes, THE CHAMP, or Nameless King? SL80-ish spellsword if it matters.

so how do you fight parry spam against UGS users

Oh, I just killed him. It was more of a what-if question. Good to know, though!

Why do so many people alt f4, even at level 50 invasions

>everyone complaining about darkshould / estoc R1 spam
>when twinsword gotthard R1 spam exists

You lads should try this.

Mfw the darkmoon ring requires 10 ears

Someone just kill me. After I make my new character in a couple games, anybody want to be a bro and trade me the Darkmoon ring in return for embers, gems, or items? You can just use a backup to get it back after.

So apparently you can light the dancer church on fire by using fire on the wooden pillars. It looks pretty

Try Great Chaos Fire Orb
and then
Great Chaos Fire Orb

Jump attack, rope firebombs. Backstabs. unparryable attacks

Thanks for hosting

But really I just wanted your ass

/dsg/ players have always been scrubs that whine about min-maxing. It's never going to change.

So if Ornstein's gear is all found together on Archdrago Peak, does that mean that the Chosen Undead didn't actually kill him?

Or what?

Champ.

The secret to being a good blue is to just not give a fuck about anything.

Invader is hiding behind mobs? Whatever, we'll just clear out the area like usual.

Invader is camping the boss door? Whatever, just have the host walk past him. He literally can't stop the host and fight me at the same time.

Invader is running away and healing every time he gets hurt? Whatever, we have tons more resources anyway. Just keep the host from chasing him like an idiot.

As a Blue, if you just don't treat the invader like he's this huge priority, you're in complete control of the situation.

fucking rakuyo shitters, actually learn to play

outspace the enemy, your twinsword l1 has more range than it appears

l1 combos into l2 r2, use this with carthus blood rouge

run into people who are going to parry and delay your running attack or, if they are using a slow parry shield, you can run straight through them and backstab them

Jumping attacks or partially charged R2s. Keep them guessing.

If I want to use a buff on a strength build and not have it be pointless due to stat shortage, while also staying below level 100, what is the best buff to use?
I've been trying to fit darkmoon blade into a build for a couple days now but I've heard it's pointless below 55 faith and that's just not going to work.

Get champ and nameless done and you'll breeze through the princes.

>jump attack
thanks nigger, good idea

dietrich why the fuck do you keep leaving?

Is Creighton axe worth using? I kinda wanna infuse it with lightning and toss lightning blade on it with the lightning clutch and just go full ham. Doable?

He longs for the letter his language isn't allowed to have

>can't see the scenery of that picture because of the face
>still trying hard to unsee the face
Hmmmmm...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I wonder how From managed to both fuck up whip class in its entirety and make such a great weapon at the same time.
Granted, any competent player with actual top tier weapon will quickly find a way around it but holy shit it wrecks randoms.

He wants to find the 1 person who can challenge him.

Reckless Pete

desu senpai i was more of a beast cutter user.

I just find the weapon cool looking (both of them) and i want to use it. Didn't really used much of the rakuyo because how broken it was.

>tfw no whipswords

Fuck you Matt

Fucking Aetheres why you always live with 1 hp

>trying to help people with pontiff
>host dies every time

JUST CIRCLE RIGHT! IT'S NOT FUCKING HARD!

Rordran
Rothric
Anor Rondo

i need to kill some gay nigger in the other host's world

i left all my anti-faggot weapons in storage since i didn't really expect a literal estoc+greatshield baby to sprout up

pete has been in the FC for 5 rounds now, but you still leave

This.

Fuck you matt you twat

>when someone heals in a fight club

weapon arts is amazingly good, other attacks not as much

>yfw whipsword with the same weapon arts

Just act casual. They won't notice you're supposed to be bald and male

He's actually looking for Berke, Ley, or Armored Jailer.

The only 3 people who can challenge him.

You've got to use your head and think

so when I go NG+ and try invading in an early area, is it gonna be barren?

DS1 Ornstein was supposedly an illusion.
I don't know what DS2 dragonslayer was supposed to be.

So how are the Drang Hammers for a quality build? Any good? What about the Twinspears, while we're at it?

What level are the FCs and where, I'm playing a level 50 build right now

It's a godlike twinking weapon when paired with buffs

At high level FCs, it does shit damage even with a buff due to natural defense of SL120 shitters

you're cool then
did you bother farming blunt gems?

rakuyo was just broken as fuck with the game's netcode issues, you just could not get away from it

Use proper pic pls

Wait what?

anyone else notice that there are bones underneath the shallow water in aldrich's boss room?

I will take another 20-30 minute break in a bit, but I will go back to hosting for an hour or so.

No problem.

Blessed weapon is a %-based boost to your physical AR that requires only 15 fth and does not scale up with faith. It's especially good with weapons that have high attack modifiers (thus gain more from small AR increases) and weapons that naturally have high total AR (such as high-scaling strength weapons).

Fair warning: Blessed Weapon does not stack with warcry, and using warcry will replace any active buff on your weapon.

If you're really strapped for levels, you can cast it with 10fth and the Priestess' Ring. You can equip the ring to cast the buff, and then unequip it during the casting animation to use a different ring.

they have like a .5% slab droprate on top of the first 3-kill guaranteed

Blessed Weapon is your buff desu. Adds Phys AR and is great on huge weapons

>that moment when everyone jumps off the platform to gang up on that fag

How do you dealio with greatshield and estoc?

Posts like this make my day.

>Supposedly an illusion

Wait what? Where does it say that?

And whats that mean for Smoug? What happened to him?

>Go to Rosaria to alter appearance.
>Can't switch genders.

From.

That's a next-level photoshop maneuver my man, damn fine work.

Rolling attacks have a good distance, 1hr2 is fucking GREAT as it goes through walls and can be charged to catch on a roll. Overall whips only lack in damage department, otherwise they would be a great weapon class. Not top tier but more than enough to hold your own with.

>kills (You)
>uses Point Down gesture

Are these the most cancerous types of people?

>What's the stupidest build/technique that you've ever seen work?

I thought that full Kirkarmour rolling with two Spiked Shields was just a myth until I got to witness it myself a few days ago.

>Hosts who attack without warning then chug
>Uncooperative summons who attack the host, harry the fighters and run away, or just won't fight
>Katana WRR1 spammers who cast five buffs before each match

FCing today is going to fucking suck I can already tell.

HOSTING FFA

RIGHT SIDE OF PLATFORM AS ALWAYS

START SIGNAL IS COMBUSTION

Twinspears are an inferior version of Gotthard's
Drang Hammers are hilariously rad, but they lack range.

Level 60-80, remember that many weapons are banned and that you must place your sign at a perfect 90 degree angle aligned with the sun or you won't be summoned.

I thought there was nothing that dropped slabs in das3.

I thought they didn't respawn

heh
this actually makes me think if Miyazaki can pronounce those names

>getting killed
There's your problem man!

We're gonna need another host.

>That image

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
