LAUTREC

>I'm making a new character and I want him to be a tanky shield guy that does miracles for coop.
>Should I go cleric, herald, or what?

Artorias is supposed to be really hard, the Sanctuary Guardian less so. Didn't stop me from beating Artorias first try though since I'd gone a quality build and found out that you can tank through all of his attacks with a high stability greatshield.

WADDUP

>Tfw I beat nameless king on my first try but died 10 times to pontiff

A maid.

>tanky shield guy that does miracles for coop
Ds3?
You don't, simply because you're going to get fucked by every boss since heavy armor doesn't give heavy protection, on top of the fact that you're fat rolling once your shield takes 2 hits and your stamina bar is nearly depleted and you can't tank the third shot

That being said,
>herald because cleric has like 2 VIT

Knight.

Not kidding either, it has the least amount of base points in Int and Luck, both of which will be useless to you. The Dex you might need because of minimum requirements for certain weapons. Plus it starts with a 100% physical block shield which makes the start of the game somewhat easier.

If you actually want the Luck and don't care about Dex or Int, then Herald.

I got a cleric's sacred chime as a drop in the first starting area. How lucky am I?

I've been trying to use Avelyn to punish Estus chugging, but is not working very good.
What would be a better choice for that?
Arbalest?

>Japanese desire sensor. Guaranteed to be the biggest bitch when you want some trivial shit that has no business being hard to get

Every fucking time

Congratulations, it's useless because A-team can't balance for shit

>yfw B-team stood for BEST team all along

Yep.
Similar story here.

Beat Fume and Alonne on the 3d and 4th try but Blue Smelter pushed my shit in probably 20 or 30 times and still proved to be a shit show unless I cheese with a magic shield

To be fair, you can just buy a Tower Shield off of Crestfallen Merchant, which is only like 2 or 3 bosses after the Parish, and not like you'll have the stats to actually use the Tower Shield that early on unless you've been dumping literally all of your points into Str.

Vestiges.

Just time your punishes better and get familiar with the travel time of your bolts.

Arbalest would be fine as well but you still need to learn the ins and outs of whatever xbow you choose

It doesn't help that the run to Blue Smelter can put you on permanent tilt just because of how fucking retarded it is, and that you have to remember to BC the phantoms before going in if you're taking the lower path.

MOOOOOM PULL THE PLUG

Is there a way to make a skeleton look for your character ?

Anyone wanna be my ornstein i can be smough.

Collectors' Edition
Masterful character creation shenanigans for the face
Other than that no

>collector's edition
exparainu

...

you edit your character proportions in cheat engine
you get bunned if you don't reverse it before you quit I think

I don't actually remember what this did, will it make you join matches to help your way of blue members or something?

Guys
What's the best boss theme for each game?

It allows you to invade players with "sin" and kill them for Darkmoon covenant items, basically a Red Eye Orb but for a different covenant. Means that Darkmoons can actually get ears without farming Silver Knights all day.

The problem comes when there is no actual sin mechanic in DaS3.

>pale ashy skin

Anyone who disagrees is stupid.

>they change it
>blue invaders have 30% more HP+ember and twice the estus
>your fault for invading firthy gaijin piggu

youtube.com/watch?v=DgpYfCnLhAo
I should have included this in my other post, i don't have one for DS2/

Helps invade "sinners" which were pretty much anybody who has invaded other people.

It's an alternative to the red orb.

For Das3 it means being able to invade a host (instead of being summoned to fight a Red) and potentially acquire a concord at will without having to wait half an hour to get summoned.

If they add a fucking blue orb after i unironically farmed for concords im gonna break a wooden pallette with my fucking fists and blog about it here

look at this flimsy shit and weep
available in dark souls 3 scholar of the second fuck edition

We're apparently getting Velka shit in the DLC so hopefully that's there.

Hey guys does anyone wanna be my ornstein i'm gonna be smough.

A fun str build for DS3 PvE?
It's gonna be my first playthrough.

Great club was for for me.

fun for me*

Great axe, large club or great machete

0-4 pvp with carthus curved sword
5-9 masturbate to naomi woods

BKGS, the space launch is always fun.

Better get fappin, son

roll

>he doesn't masturbate exclusively to JAV

>Having fun with great axe
>Reach Farron Keep
>Abyss Watcher jumps out of the backstab animation
>3 times in a row
God fucking dammit why is the Ashen One such a cripple

Great machete trades extra range for less damage but a stronger buff fyi

I always beat abyss watchers without backstabbing them.

So we can all agree that Bearer of the 42 Chromosomes is the weakest and most retarded protagonist right
>takes him 10 hours to open a door or chest
>can't run for more than 3 seconds

I'm am excited for the DLC.

>Bearer of the 42 Chromosomes

Holey moley

I swear this is a conspiracy

You could try choosing who you summon I guess but I know that feeling.

Why is the sunless talisman int based how am I supposed to be a darkmoon knightess like this
fuck
I bet this is why Sirris has garbage damage too

>oh nice he's using some underrated weapon
>game plays out the way you'd expect it to
>he pulls out some memeta weapon on the brink of defeat

There's no escaping it

Would be good if landing a crossbow shot during chugging nets a free riposte like in BB.

I wish people hadn't complained about FUGS AR.

You could carry a mememe weapon yourself. Good part is they fit in any build.

Do you faggots ever stop complaining?

He was retarded but at least he fitted well in Drangleic
Ashen one is also retarded but it feels like playing the chosen undead in yharnam, pretty much every enemie outspeeds you

>Garg Spear/Washing Pole
I've never seen these weapons used at all, only kat I've seen mostly is switched out Uchi for running R1s.
>Love Dark Sword in DaS1 just for its 1HR2
>For months since launch face nothing but Dark Sword users in DaS3 (Guts with Dark Swords, Dancers with Dark Swords, etc)
Game is trying to make me hate it.

So whats the memeta weapons for DaS3?

What's the issue with it?

>people twinking high wall
>they're level 20 or less
>they have maxed estus shards and all other items
CANCER

>change invasions in favor of the host
>invaders can't win so they twink
at least from had good intentions

deal with it noob

only 7 estus

>Dueling at Pontiff with a new build...
>Right hand -- Yhorm's Greatshield
>Left hand -- Avelyn
>Strategy: kick with shield then shoot staggered opponent
>Do this to a guy twice, each time landing all 3 bolts for ~400 net damage

So one of us is clearly being a faggot, who is it?
Is Yhorm's shield verboten in dueling or what?

You have my blessings

kys

How about you kma, faggot?

Anyone who takes issue with the Avelyn is fucking dumb.

>Blonde bimbo
Ugh. Not sure what's worse, CCS or this.

>tfw the skull ring doesn't give you glowy red eyes like in DS2

mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/8059
I just don't know anymore

this is literally the worst ds3 build i have ever seen

Wasn't there also something that gave you red eyes in demon's souls? Or it gave you a red orb above you, something like that.

Also

>Calamity Ring doesn't have that thing above you anymore
this is a whole other level of bullshit

I really don't get you sometimes my man.

>suicide by jumping in protest
I do that whenever I get seriously outplayed (shit like 2 parries in a row), but I leave an ember behind
Am I a faggot now

>leave an ember
no you're very nice

Good
Tell me why
give me pain

Someone has the name E-HENTAI. Fucking degenerates.

Whoops the 0 got cut off
mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/80590

>mfw people think this clusterfuggg of a website is good for sharing your build

Is there more fan art of Oceiros?

I have an idea, cleric should be good. Use a greatshield with blessed infusion and a weapon with blessed infusion. Equip sun princess ring and use magic shield spell to reinforce your shield. Also cast a regen spell.

NORMIES OUT

I don't think thats a good combo, either you're gonna get bleed or hit while using the crossbow by HA abusers.

feel free to present us with a better option

Wrong build
mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/80590

user he's not using the shield on the left hand, he's using it to k'ick" on the right hand and shooting with the avelyn on the left hand after they are stunned.

Too late when Herald.

>which one of us is the faggot
>dueling and expecting the other player to be "honourable"
Pretty sure dueling makes you both faggots by default.

Greatshields are one of 3 weapons types that modify your kicks; the other two being rapiers and the panty guardian curved sword.

>clutch rings in pvp
>40/40 for a fucking garbage buff and a bleed miracle anyone can strafe
>not knowing dark blade is better on a faith build then a 40/40

are you doing this on purpose?

could be worse

>invade
>host has two downscaled sunbros
nice

>weapon memery so invaders can't upgrade their shit reasonably
>instead of having to go through obe tough boss at a low sl, you'll have to go through pretty much the entire game
>even at max estus, the invader's estus flasks are so gimped that people in the Settlement already have more
Stop whining, the game is balanced completely in favor of hosts. Which is alright since invaders were dedigned to be speed bumps for hosts but I hate people complaining about "twinking" in DS3.

Yeah I'm bored and I don't have any weed to lmao so I can sleep
