YO WADDUP

There's literally no reason to use other weapons when
Gotthards
Card Captors
Gargoyle Spear
BKGlaive
AGS
Washing Pole
Estoc
BKGS
Hollowslayer and
Great Club exists
They almost always have the same moveset or the weapon listed has a better moveset overall in the same class.

What is this shit? No gfs allowed, only cutie pcfcbfs

...

Anyone for yhorm on Xbox?

Looking to do some DS2 pvp, is the Mastodon Greatsword still good?

>BKGlaive
Lucerne is better 'cause leo ring

>[anything] Edition

Fucking die.

Someone create a proper thread already

>haha I posted it again

>needing help for yhorm

>xbox
dont come back until you buy a pc or ps4

Lucerne has less range and Leo Ring doesn't proc correctly.

MEMEHACKAZAKI

What are the best counters to Spears?

What's better 1h between red hinted halberd lucerne?

Which two weapon classes together makes the strongest pairing between glaives, halberds, and spears?

>he on pc?
Yes.
If he sticks to his schedule, he'll be starting DS1 in 40 minutes roughly.

>haha I'm so funny guys co-op experience is for plebs!

Kill yourself fast my man

Level doesn't matter when password summoning, right?

Is it better than rhh?

RHH has a different moveset but yes, it's the best in that subclass.

Correct

No matter what it turns out to be, The Mark of the Conqueror is significant.

Before I say why I need to divide the Souls community into two general groups - Conquerors and Conquered - and quickly define both.

Both have basically been around since Demon's Souls, but the very nature of the Conquered demands that the Conquerors come first. Why? Because Conquerors beat the path and light the way. Afterward, like mold or a rot, the Conquered seep into the community, ever at the heels of the Conquerors.

How is that? Either by a lack of information upon release or due to a self-imposed restriction, the Conqueror goes in blind. Conquerors embrace the challenge From Software has extended with each release in their Souls/Bloodborne Series while the Conquered abhor it. While Conquerors scratched and clawed their way through levels and boss fights, the Conquered poured over FAQs, Strategy Guides, Wiki Articles, Google Search Results, Let's Plays and How to Videos.

Therefore the Conquered subsist by virtue of the illumination spread over From's games by the Conquerors, entirely dependent on it. Overtime they've let themselves forget this, fancying themselves old hands as they bring their borrowed knowledge and tactics to bear on each successive release.

And then here comes f***ing Nioh, reminding the Conquered who they really are. And with little to no documentation in sight they hide behind s***posts so they can cling to that "gud" status they worked so hard to attain. Eventually they'll be back. Once the Conquerors have shown the way, that is.

And that's why The Mark of the Conqueror is significant. No matter how superficial, uselessly cosmetic or quickly outclassed it is
.
No, I'm a Conqueror.

ONLY THE STRONG MAY REPLY TO THIS POST!

I'm the guy who always asks if anyone needs help on PS4. You're baiting the wrong person here.

>shitty references

I gave up after that, you're just one of these freaks that think vidya games are their life. Please go do real things so you can actually enjoy vidya on your time off in the future.

Hello newfriend

Longer spear, running attacks
RHH by far, it's not even a choice
Spear Right hand and Rapier left hand. RHH right hand and rapier or BKS left hand is better, though.

>another bait post
>facebook image

Son, go find something to do.

Wait, wtf is going on in this webm? How is the player character moving like that?

>DS3baby in full denial mode

el em eff ay oh

So the new DLC is going to make frost builds a thing right?

R-right?

>frost spell literally a rehashed poison mist

What do you think?

does vit give really good defense returns early on or something?

pure pyro with 8 vit, everything seems to do a fuckload more even when i stack armor to 25% absorbtion

Vit is a useless stat. Every point you even consider pouring into vit should be used in vig

How is it better than Lucerne? Doesn't Lucerne deal more damage and have more HA?

We can do this the hard way or we can do this the easy way.

What's your character name? I think you may have helped me before

OK I want to run a bk shield with rhh. But I hear rhh loses to Spears. What's the best weapons I can pair with it to do well vs anything?

I'd guess a spear

I'd be tempted to throw lucerne and the homosword up there, but it feels like everyone but me is capable of using the TPGS well so who knows.

Congratulations, you're more retarded than the spam poster you replied to.

Shame

Does putting your name in full caps bypass the censor?

>dual wield weapons are gimmicks
>implying this wasn't true in ds2

DS2 will be forever known as "the game that fixed the jump controls" and nothing more.

Hollowslayer is better than homosword because
>Pure physical damage
>Objectively superior 2HR1 and 2HR2

>expects somebody to come here every day and know what's spam bait and what's not

I can't tell you how happy it makes me to say I don't know what you're talking about and I won't learn.

It has more tracking, trades better, has an annoying double damage glitch, hitstops are fucking annoying too and it has so much active frames you're guaranteed to proc a poison or bleed buff on someone who's rolling through your moves. Also Lucerne only has hyper armor while two handed.

>What's the best weapons I can pair with it to do well vs anything?
Offhand Dark Sword.

I just wanna be able to Frost Resin the Irithyll weapons and actually be able to trigger it on people

ISS has such a nice reach too

...

>Miracles awful, best and most viable one LOCKED BEHIND THE FINAL BOSS

>he wants to see DSP run through the game throwing bolts into everything again

what makes garg spear so great?

it's split damage AND the fire damage doesn't get the counter bonus thrust does, the wa looks super easy to avoid too
the range?

Everything in that post is true. Soulsbabies are trash at any game that requires anything above i-framing attacks and spamming light attacks.

Action game player - Low/mid stance - combos bosses and enemies - uses pulses/stance changes - rarely gets hit

Soulsbaby (You) - hight stance - spams light attacks - runs out of ki - dies trying to i-frame through boss attacks

The difference is clear as night/day

What counter rhh the best?

I never think to trade or make use of hyperarmor, I think that's my problem.

I'd say it's probably better, but the homosword is still at least unique enough to get a slot.

Long range wich translates into retarded phantom range online

It's the highest range you'll find in spears. That controls a lot of space in front of you. The split damage boosts backstab damage for some reason, too.

Maybe you should stay on tumbleddit where you belong then

Annoy with Lothrics Light
Trade with Lorians Flame

GFS and WP.

>meanwhile offensive miracles are still trash
At least DaS2 had Blinding Bolt and Heavenly Thunder

You forgot to say "I'm not (poster bitching about something"
I really like this pasta since the alpha and it perfectly captures people

this was pretty good, the asterisks got me

thanks

lmao

...

Washington pole and great faram sword?

...

ye

Is it fine to use CE to upgrade weapons? I don't have enough Slabs.

Nice blog!!
Is there any more?

Where can I subscribe?

>blessed weapon
literally only good on NON faith builds

replenishment is shit
great heal is shit and also pointless

offensive miracles have always been trash

>first 60 posts ITT are memes and bait disguised as disguised-bait

Never change dsg

>average pccuck

nioh threads on /v/

>this guy's not hurting me, why isn't he hurting me at all?

Wrong.

blinding bolt and sunlight spear in ds2 were great, you pleb

you are wrong in all three accounts

no

How did this meme even start? Most sword aficionados know katanas were shit, easily broken and primarily used to slash weak ass cloth and leather.

The big dick Shogun with all the time, money and honeys used horseback archery and kept a katana on reserve.

>DaS3 was my first game

>no
How are blinding bolt and heavenly thunder bad?

>try to make a decent-looking rogue character
>end up with this
fml

DS3 has better offensive miracles than DS2.
It also has the only sunlight spear in series that is possible to land in pvp.
And the very system of hyperarmor casting in a game with no stagger immunity is brilliant.
Blinding bolt was nerfed into oblivion and heavenly thunder only works on absolute cretins.

He does have technique, at least.

>DS3 has better offensive miracles than DS2.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>sunlight spear
No hyperarmor with even slower cast speed than in DS3.
Absolute, utter fucking shit.

>no hyper armor
you're not supposed to cast in their face, dumbass

it's for killing chuggers

>DS3 has better offensive miracles than DS2.
Such as?

>It also has the only sunlight spear in series that is possible to land in pvp.
>he didn't do poison miracle builds in pvp

>And the very system of hyperarmor casting in a game with no stagger immunity is brilliant.
it's their only saving grace, desu

>Blinding bolt was nerfed into oblivion and heavenly thunder only works on absolute cretins.
Still pretty good and heavenly thunder is the best wakeup spell to setup a great heal or a rebuff.

>No hyperarmor with even slower cast speed than in DS3.
now you're just lying through your teeth.

Glad to see DS2 players being as retarded as always.

>Most sword aficionados know katanas were shit, easily broken
I think that's part of the appeal, it gives people the impression that there's a skill curve involved in not breaking it

>primarily used to slash weak ass cloth and leather.
You aren't really going to find fully armored people on a subway

What's the best long range weapon I can swap my rhh to with a bk shield in left hand

...

Seconded this question.

>How did this meme even start?
Katanas look cool and the samurai myth has been out there for centuries.

>primarily used to slash weak ass cloth and leather.
Yes, but a lot of the samurai romanticism comes from the later periods where the samurai were no longer really relevant in war, but schools of swordsmanship became something like martial arts today and the samurai romanticism was exported overseas by Japan in order to make people interested in them.

Also : anime nerds.
