/dsg/ - Souls General

first for hyper armor is the worst idea in this fucking piece of shit game and miyazaki is a literal braindead retard

hyper armor works in games like monster hunter because it keeps your teammates from tripping you up, it has no place in souls when poise was fine in actual pvp

keep in mind forest ganking jap backstab fests was not even close to what all dark souls pvp was like

>was not even close to what all dark souls pvp was like

but flipping backstep fest & dark magic one shots is EXACTLY what dark souls pvp was like
with the occasional spear turtle & giantdad here & there

why does everyone think that capra demon is hard?
He's literally taurus demon 2.0, you can just drop attack him from the archway on top of the stairs and he doesn't even follow you.

because of the dogs and because most people don't have more than 20 poise by that time

dogs

I highly doubt the archway plunging attack is the recommended strategy either

What SL is protect the pope going to be?

>i only played dark souls on pc after people started making meme videos and never actually did high level play against people

in invasions idc if people use scrub tactics to kill people because that was the point, in actual duels pvp could be great

hyper armor makes it mandatory that you hyper armor damage trade with people or you lose so it all comes down to latency or who hits first

>invade
>giantdad host and giantchild phantom
>get killed
>receive message: "don't ever invade me or my phantom ever again"

slow day, huh?

Is Dark Souls 3 the least replayable of the series? At least until the DLCs come around.

>PvP
>Two guys circle around one another
>One fuckup, 3 quarters of the health bar gone

So what if, estus usage is disable for both parties, but we do much less damage to one another?

>and never actually did high level play against people
>high level play

yeah DMB 27/40 falchion r1 spam is so much better right dude

First DLC 'supposedly' launches in August, so we'll see what that does to the playercount, I guess.

>tell them why they should
>SOTFS: nothing
top kek

none of the pve content is very good and it's a real fucking drag to play through to unlock shit on new characters

That's because that user's already written a steam review for it :^)

>SHIT armor variety, most of the actually cool things are recycled shit
At this point if the DLC doesn't add some 30 unique armor sets Fashion Souls III is a bust.

>August
>when I'll be sitting around with my arm in a sling for six weeks with strict instructions not even to move it or use it for ANYTHING

the recommended strategy is to get rid of the dogs. after that, the fight is trivial

>One third of the sets is shitty robes
>One third is old rusted shit with tattered capes
>One third is recycled

DS3 original armors have zero personality.

>doing a low level dried finger run
>invaded by a few casters
>this is how it always ends
adorable, casters are sure strong at low levels

>can't play with his toes
babymode too hard for you? i guess you'll have to wait a bit

>low level

>low-level
>that vig
>yhorms
What the fuck kinda SL means 'low' for you

75 is a very low level compared to adequate ng+ ranges

Plz respond

75 is endgame you mong.

t. 150 meta

Not him but
>ng+

>anastasia
>standing
tendons are for fags anyway

majority of the playerbase settled for 100+ level meta, 75 is a range for a typical ng playthrough and not ng+ stuff

>tfw i used all my respecs and ended on the same exact build i started with

how the fuck did this happen

Him but
>pvp
not affected by cycles
>meta
that's for fightclubs and shit. not random invasions. you're a bit below the lowest fc meta. that's high level

>75
>Endgame

Get with the meta, you boipucci.

>"I am bad at this game"

your next line is "MEMES XD"

>Skeletons rattling nearby

it's funny because you're the contrarian one

go ahead and fight a good GS or UGS user with any weapon that doesn't also have hyper armor, you'll lose

DEAD GAME DEAD GENERAL

Ain't
even
got
legs

>125
Where's 120?
Stop memeing.

As do I.

> tfw lose 7k souls when new I was farming

do you call this rattling
you haven't seen a terror yet

yeah no you're right dude
straight swords rapiers and curved swords are famous for being really terrible against slow weapons

don't you think you might be exaggerating just a tad?

That is actually really smart. I mean a little katana or thrusting sword shouldn't eat up almost as much health as a giant fucking club or a gigantic sword two times the size of your player model.

Wtf? People are actually voting for 200. That's a bit much desu. I feel like you shouldn't be able to have a quality build AND cast any spell in the game.

are you retarded? the joke is that none of these are popular meta levels, it doesn't even have 120 on it

voted for 200 because i don't care about fight clubs and just wanted to skew the results
Sorry, friend.

>strawpoll.me/10479056
>there almost as many votes for 200 as there are for 125
This is some shit tier trolling.

125 is the "i leveled to 120 before i got the usurp the flame ending" meta, who would vote for that?

>tfw 210 char. with 100h

Very spooky.
Have to darkwraith to get any PVP bites. What SL do people usually NG around?

and 150 + 125 were never used as pvp levels... ever? Have you played a souls game before? And I'm the retarded one...

have you been paying attention to dark souls 3 at all? it doesn't matter what people used in other games, literally no one has been calling for a 150 or 200 meta in DaS3. the actual candidates (that you can see in the strawpoll spammed at the top of every thread) are usually 80/100/120

it's much too linear and the areas aren small
What the fuck were they thinking when they made profaned capital and copy-pasted a quarter of anor londo?

>Morne and Fugs require 50 STR (30 FTH with Morne) but both are weaker, weight more and cost more stamina than other Ultras

Fucking Hackazaki, bet the shitter never beat his own game without a straightsword.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Figured it was just a latency thing.
Earlier I was grabbed by the crab in that same spot where the Watchdog was, yet I took no damage.

It's just the result of the 80ers anal pain. The funny thing is 125 won anyway.

Playing DaS3 shortly after a lengthy, government-sponsored trip on ketamine is a surreal experience.

Post OC you drew YOURSELF

Blaze it faggot

>none of these are popular meta levels
125 is pretty common from the builds I've seen posted here.

The others are a joke though.

probably latency. the timing between hits looked like a darksword spam
tfw you have been playing long enough to identify it

aim better

>literally no one
>actual candidates
According to the 300 people /dsg/ populace and polls with 40 votes. Sure thing bud.

>bloodborne tier fast enemies
>No poise so heavy armor is useless and player is forced to run around in rags and dodge roll to victory with straightswords and katanas

If they wanted to make DS3 BB2 they should have put in the dashes and transforming weapons

I make shitty joke youtube vids, I don't draw.

Pope is ready
sl 60 +6 currently
got 40 faith what spells should i get?
Should i change the gear?

That doesn't mean no one talks about the older game metas.

They should have put in another fucking artillery cannon and a minigun

I now understand why so many user here has boipucci characters.

The female animation in DS3 is absolute garbage. All the poses are lame as fuck.

May try another one of collage user posts
gotta get better anyway

Second worse is a harsh way to say fourth best, which is true

>yfw from made some weapons in das3 even slower than they were in das

>what is reversal ring

What weapons?

What level do you usually stop at in Dark Souls 1?

Curved swords and katanas. Possibly something else too but at least those two.

You mean the big curved swords? cause katanas don't seem slower, nor do the curved swords.

If it didn't take so long to level up, I would totally support an SL804 meta.

Everyone having access to the same things would nake PvP a lot more balanced.

They lock you in the animation for a longer time. Katanas in DaS had virtually no recovery frames making them very good in PvP.

120-125 is the standard.

playing DaS1. outside of poise and weight, what's the best stats I want out of my armor for general purpose? my best guess is slash defense but I'm not sure

125-135

>Wasting a ring slot

Nah, I'll just buy the Collector's Edition with the sex change coffin.

For my honor guard I got
>WotG
>great heal
>force
>lightning blade
I think I should level my ATT to 30 for emit force

Also seems like the weapon is bigger.

I drew this for fun
gonna share with you guys
