Are fist weapons any good in this game? Just got done with my second playthrough and I was thinking of doing a caestus run, really loved the moveset powerstance in DS2.

>invade some folks as a drakeblood knight in Archdragon Peak >clearly just beat Ancient Wyvern, host is still summoning his sunbro buttbuddy >wave to them, leave them an ember, and use the point gesture to try and show them where the serpentman summoner is so we can have a fair fight without infinite knight tag-team combos >to my surprise, they both follow my lead and rush the serpentman >use My Thanks and Praise the Sun to thank me, don't seem overly hostile >Dorkmoon appears and attacks, the sunbro tries taking a swing at the ddorkmoon and generally he and the host stay out of our wa >crush the dorkmoon, more gesturing and celebrating from the host and sunbro >figure these guys are cool, use gestures to show them various items and how to get the calamity ring >try to communicate that I want to duel the sunbro, instead the host kneels and the sunbro points down at him and mimes attacking >mfw >kill the host, they both friend me on steam >figure out pretty quickly that english isnt their first language, simple sentences with no slang are the most they can understand >they're both korean >have them summon me as a phantom, help them clear through the area and show them all the treasure, help both of them defeat "No-named king" >help the sunbro kill Champion Gundyr, too >"I turn off. I have many homework. thanks bro !!! Good bye!"
I'll never forgot you two. Some of this playerbase is all right after all.
I wish From gave a shit and patched this out and patched in the ability to just buff weapons like this with the matching buff.
Colton Johnson
I dont think its possible to inflict poison and bleed without resins.
Zachary Turner
>Can't hide OP pic
Great, thanks for being a pleb OP.
Jayden Reed
>as if anyone defends it that isn't blatantly looking for (you)'s
Michael Perez
I have a SL50/+6 character for Aldrich and mid game invasions.
Is SL89/+10 good for the end game areas (Lothric, Archives, Archdragon)?
Brayden Ross
Stats?
Dylan Edwards
Lots of armors of similar weights and defense values that are simply different aesthetically = GOOD
Investing a ton of points into Vitality only to get stunlocked to death by some naked guy with an estoc = BAD
It's especially heinous since they upped the weight values so extremely on the heavier armors only to make poise not fucking matter anyway.
Jeremiah Hall
It isn't the garbage that it was back in DaS1.
Xavier Perez
>none of your decisions in Dark Souls 1 mattered thanks to the heavy retcons of Dark Souls 3
Why is this allowed?
Nicholas Hernandez
It's a fantastic, simple system that's affected by nearly everything in the game, and leads to solid PVP, good PVE, and an all around fantastic use of the stat to cap off the Dark Souls 3 trilogy.
It's just not turned on.
Lucas Barnes
Holy shit Great weapons are the ultimate gankspankers
>Invading at settlement using great machete/ great club >Every shitter ever tries to trade hits with my hyperarmour >When i pretend to run away from them they never see that 180 coming >Crushing multiple phantoms with one swing
Why didn't i think of this sooner
Also: >Get host to low hp with a combo >Starts rolling away >Throw a firebomb that kills them just as they go for that sip Works like a charm. They always think they have the range on me
Connor Reed
is it worth putting any points into vit at all if you're not doing it for fashion?
Adam Roberts
Because time is convoluted
Colton Gutierrez
So, what does the Cross-Region Play setting do again?
Cameron Brooks
The whole fucking story is about how none of your choices ever mattered or ever will matter.
I don't know what you want man.
Charles Perez
Once everything else is 40.
Hunter Cook
Same thing as poise.
Evan Watson
Cross region on: Japan Cross region off: No japan
Noah Morales
reminder that hyperarmor is an objectively worse system than poise
Christian Thomas
Does it really matter?
No one plays these games for the story.
Also, multiple universes are explicitly stated to exist, so this one is clearly different.
Wyatt Bailey
>Invaded by Magic Man >Turns mobs invisible >Leaves Which one of you fuckers was it
Connor Jackson
Oh, alright. I'll just leave it on then.
Leo Wood
So, important lore question, what does Ashen Estus taste like?
Noah Wright
Probably wants his choices to matter.
But they don't matter.
None of this matter.
Luke Torres
Probably not but what's the point in living if you aren't doing it stylishly?
Austin Cox
Hyper armor has been in this series since DeS you fucking nigger.
Josiah Walker
Once your primary stat(s) are at their soft-cap, then yeah.
Jayden Russell
...
Grayson Wright
yeah resins don't seem to work I can pretty reliably get the resin animation, see image, but it doesn't actually apply
40/17(+5 from ring)/60
Landon Wright
kool-aid that's been left in the fridge for 2 months
Luke Martin
This at settlement? i just invaded someone that had a phantom named magic man. Was no hacker tho
Chase Sullivan
It's for mages, who are either women or fags. Sparkling Blueberry Water.
Isaiah Edwards
Why is the Lord of Cinder sad?
Daniel Edwards
and it's shit
Camden Morris
Everyone should just commit suicide to save the trouble.
Jason Anderson
Can't defend what doesn't exist
Jackson Reyes
...
Joseph Ortiz
time to try lightning blade dragonslayer axe
wait that's a pretty bad image
Sebastian Rodriguez
Hyper armor is literally the only thing that makes heavy weapons worthwhile.
Fuck off.
Connor Howard
He wanted to be DaS3's poster boy but only managed to become a meme final boss.
Hunter James
Thinkan of Kindling
William Mitchell
It's time to stop posting Lothric, go back to cuddling your older brother.
Anthony Cruz
this is the comparison
Ian Richardson
I liked this story.
Daniel Adams
The Crestfallen Knight has never had a name before Hawkwood, right?
Or am I just retarded and never noticed before?
Adrian Hughes
>Want to make a new character >Don't want to go through undead settlement
Chase Nelson
and poise made every weapon viable
go ahead and fight a decent greatsword user with something like a curved sword. you'll lose because they can time their armor to trade with you every single time
Caleb Harris
Why did he want to be a dragon? It sucked for Oceiros.
Logan King
Just sprint through it. If you sprint through the arrow place you can dodge a HUGE amount of the whole zone.
Noah Rivera
I believe one of them was Saulden or something like it
Levi Young
Catacombs.
Isaac Lopez
He's a fucking furry, somewhere out there is a hot dragon bitch that Hawkwood is just dying to bone who doesn't want his weak human dick.
Charles Morgan
Translation: >I tried to facefuck a UGS user with R1 spam and got fucked into oblivion because I am a massive scrub
Christian Reyes
how do i deal with estoc spam without doing parry spam?
Cooper Cooper
He saw Darkmoon Giant Loli Dragon and wanted to buff her Gaping Dragon with his Sticky White Stuff because she'd end up like big sis fluffy tail here one day.
Cameron Campbell
The crestfallen was called Saulden in DaS2.
Zachary Fisher
>Hold forward, hold roll button to run >done with undead settlement in 1 minute wow
Nathaniel Lee
tl;dr me on the hot new meme aka ds3 tumblebuffing
what's the inputs, i assume resins don't work
Dominic Thompson
>not sunny D Heretical.
Ayden Murphy
>want to make a new character >only 10 characters slots allowed >have to delete someone
Thanks From.
Charles Cooper
Use the old Runescape dupe code, Alt+f4
Dylan King
Oceiros did the classic mistake of not doing a single intelligent thing. >of all shitty dragons in the world he chose to worship the worst one >did retarded research that fucked him up and everything around him >cradles an invisible baby while his other 2 sons let the world go to shit while having gay incest or something >probably listened to a primordial serpent Fuck this guy.
Jaxson Gonzalez
this is just the lightning blade buff. 702 - 467 AR = 235 lightning blade AR
To be a dragon through the Path of the Dragon isn't the same as experimenting with forbidden knowledge.
Path of the Dragon is more like bodily mastery, accumulating power through honorable challenges with the others who walk the path. Hawkwood wants to redeem himself and proves his strength, it's only fitting he chooses path of the dragon. Every other covenant is politics.
Evan Wood
does this work? Can anyone confirm?
Ian Stewart
except i'm usually the greatsword user, and anyone without a hyperarmor weapon class gets fucked just by me simply waiting for them to get close then getting my guaranteed 2 hit combos on them every time. even if they trade damage with me they still take a shitload more than i do
Thomas Diaz
Run and jump off a ledge make sure you have a weapon and buff ready hit the buff button when you hit the ground and start to roll swap to the unbuffable weapon during the roll When you come out of the roll you will do the buff animation you buffered by going into the roll animation and apply the buff to the new weapon.
Henry Bell
>want to make a new character >can't help but clear every single area so I get items and souls so I can level up and upgrade my weapon and shit
How do I not do this
Juan Jones
>tfw when no hot elder brother to cuddle with Why live.
Benjamin Perry
Wait, there are only 10 slots? Shit, I'm at 6.
Josiah Collins
he IS the poster boy, but everyone and their mother depicts the MC wearing the knight set, which by the way is way, WAY better than firelink
Ayden Brooks
>Decide to do an SL40 run for fun >Remember the post on /dsg/ about low weapon AR and its interaction with vitality >Dump all points into vitality and wear havel's armor while using my starting weapon >People doing less than 50 damage on their R1s against me
Did I walk into bizarro land? Why does defense actually function at low level?
Anthony Martinez
So this is the profaned flame? Not very impressive but then again the first flame is a lot weaker
Aaron Lopez
and this is to go even further beyond (sacred oath, carthus beacon & the rings)
Please research things before you shit talk them, thanks.
Most weapons get some amount of hyper armor during R2s.
It's just that UGS get more since they're much slower.
Luke Cooper
Kappa
Adrian Campbell
Do you ever think that at some point, you may have gone too far?
This is a raw dragonslayer's axe.
Jacob Bell
silvercat ring you silly billy fagmaster extreme
Jack Gray
Who is your favorite pillar of the Soulsborne community and why?
Nicholas Gomez
yeah good luck hitting a a heavy weapon user with a slow ass R2 when they outrange you and have more viable armor frames
John Miller
Is that the highest achievable AR?
Wyatt Johnson
I got the silvercat ring and jumped off the edge of the world and still died, what the fuck is this bullshit fix your game FROM lol A team more like Z team
Nathan Bailey
The german gentleman
Nolan Cox
How? Is this the same tumble rolling shit from DS1?
