>vicar host kills seeded silver knights

I'm going through the Undead Burg for the first time since 2012 and I'm not reversing hollowing, fuck you all I'm not getting ganked. I just know half of the 4000 players are waiting in the Burg to gank people.

ok

You like?

silver knights are a big threat for everyone in the world, including vicars
deacons are almost harmless while being a fucking great obscuring ring radar

>bland NG+
lets be more specific

ZERO NG+ content except for randomly placed rings

I know this is bait and all but there's people who liked the animation canceling?
How fucking stupid could you be?

>it's another "boss has 10 moves designed to punish healing so you waste literally all of your estus without healing jack shit of your HP" episode
>it's another "boss literally never stops swinging his weapon" episode
>it's another "HEY I KNOW! LETS COMPENSATE FOR FAST HEALS AND INFINITE STAMINA BY GIVING BOSSES GUARANTEED HEAL PUNISHES AND INFINITE COMBOS" episode
great game design, Miyazaki

He also said we should have backstep i-frames, as if ultras aren't shit already

...

any vicars hosting?

What are you even talking about

I heard people were inventing covenants in DaS3, is this it?

I kind of like it how much more commonplace crystal magic becomes in DaS2 and DaS3. As in, in DaS1 crystal sorcery was some forbidden art that had just been discovered by Logan, but by the time of DaS3 the knowledge had spread so far that everyone's doing it

>Gank squad running around Pontiff's with 2 Gundyr's Halberds and a Winged Knight Halberd
>Gundyr ones do nothing but spam the WA
I finally found living dummies to practice my parry timings! Feels good man

so thats why i wasn't doing any damage

read the OP you meme

>that second video

Holy shit nigga all that lag

Does everyone on PC have an Africa-tier internet connection or something?

>trying to use an ultra for lorian, when he swings 3 times and then you have to respond with whatever stam you have left then continue dodging the NEXT combo
pure ass

actually becomes EASIER in ng+ because you have the full 40 end

I've met those keklords too, the WA is extremely easy to parry. Feels like it will parry even if it hits you first.

it's made by fucking vincent

It's Vincent hosting.
He's very laggy

You were riding an invisible bike all that time. How embarassing.

This is autism

Yes and it was very funny, but when i died to that BKGlaive you were moving

>Blocks while attacking
>Block frames last the entire duration of the attack, not like later games where you only get a small window of blocking during shield attacks
>Huge hitboxes with tons of active frames makes it ridiculously hard to dodge
>Breaks guards ridiculously fast, and unparriable
>Running attack has 0 frames of start-up

Went back to playing BB, its a travesty how awful DS3 looks and plays in comparison

Connection is peer to peer user, so that's just the guy playing being laggy, not everyone.

It does actually. Youve got a small window after the first initial hit to still parry before they knock you down, but Ive gotten a little better at it

of course
but it's fun autism

>SoC uses DaS1 WOG animation instead of DaS3 WOG animation
hax

I love this meme!

I don't understand this pride in 3v1s

>getting ganked by bloodshades
>at High Wall
>SL20

yeah but BB has that wierd blurring effect that hurts my eyes

Well if he used the DaS3 one it would never hit anyone would it?
You're so silly, user.

something about the catacombs really killed my interest in ds1
yesterday I tried playing again for the first time in a couple of months and gave up with trying to kill that lightening devil guy
that hallway is too TIGHT

thanks vicars

No one is pretending they're good for winning 3v1s. We're only having fun killing retards

Which weapon is faith's MLGS?

Other than Wolnir's, it's terrible.

he also has darkwoodgrain ring flips

buffed drakeblood or ass

titty demons are rough, leave them alone

Drakeblood is one of the worst weapons in the game. That thing has less range than a straight sword.

we help any time

when will they make dark magic great again?

>I just know half of the 4000 players are waiting in the Burg to gank people.

Are you retarded?
Ganking = gang killing.
You can't gang up on the host in DS1 except in the Forest or Anor Londo.

Why didn't they go with Bloodborne's Summon/Invasion ranges.

A BL 60 for example can be summoned by BL34 all the way up to 100.

They can invade 46 - 100.

They can summon 28 - 92

It basically allowed the mid-range character to be able to interact with starters and endgamers.

What weapon will do the highest riposte damage at 40/40 STR/DEX?

>he doesn't know about xboxhueg HA on drakeblood

Goddamn why are you people still playing with this guy

I'd avoid playing with someone like this at all cost

Has anyone else run into this guy lately? Im not crazy in thinking he has some small speed hack going right? Hes also able to 1 shot with backstabs using only his fist, but not actual weapons, and can fire his crossbow without reloading, which was fairly obvious.

hollowslayer does everything drakeblood does, except better

Who the fuck cares. Its a direct downgrade of Hollowslayer.

>overwatch has dark souls easter eggs

*cringes*

Words don't mean what you want them to mean

either BKGA or DSGA

yeah, i don't understand why they made ranges so narrow
in bloodborne i can easily go to 140 without a major loss in ng+ activity and constant chalice cooping

What is this webm even showing? That you are bad at dodging fireballs?

he clearly means twinked

make dark sorceries pure int scaling and dark miracles pure faith scaling
there aren;t enough viable ones to make a 40/40 dark sorc worthwhile so you just end us using pyromancies instead

didn't realize hollowslayer was a faith weapon

He has, you can't combo that attack into a crossbow bolt

The hollowslayer can't 4 split it's damage.

that you're fucking blind, apparently

You know, not every build is a quality build, eaw buffed drakeblood is great for faith builds

He didn't want Wolnir because it was a faith weapon but a bad sword, pretty sure he'd not want drakeblood

So does Fallout 4

If it's not quality, it's not a build, it's a mistake.

Yes and yes

>oh, maybe Lothric's Holy Sword will finally get decent AR on an overleveled quality+faith character
>check 40/40/40 on mugenmonkey

>*cringes*

me and your mom

drakeblood is way better than wolnir moveset-wise

no

>*cringes*
*cringes*

that's fine, and a great WA
straightswords shouldn't be able to cap 400AR

you clearly haven't used drakeblood on a faith build

this is how much straight swords should have in general

Its a travesty, really. It does terrible damage before it even got the faith scaling buff, but they have the stones to only have it have E scaling. Lothric's HOLY sword, he wears a PRAYER set, and it only has E scaling in Faith.
This shit better get fixed when the dlc drops. It makes Z E R O sense. Its one good thing is its WA stab, but the twin prince's sword does that better.

>Not good enough to fight ganks so they form their own
>Not good enough to kill higher level players so they target lower brackets
>They don't even use blood weapons even though that's the theme.
I don't know how it is on PS4, but Bloodshades on PC are just an embarrassment. Which sucks because the idea wouldn't be so bad if these faggots didn't miss the point.

>*cringes*
Get out of here leddit

That actually is the perfect AR for an SS. Unfortunately the easy mode weapons in this game has abnormally high AR for their swing speed, reach and stamina consumption.

back to your containment board

I know it's fine and I'll still go for it because I love the WA, but jesus christ why do other straightswords get like 480 AR on quality+hollow.

we sure made you cringe, didn't we?

Can someone explain me what's this vicar/bloodshade thing?

It's not that lothric's is weak, other swords are too strong.
You should try TP though

haven't played for a while, are dark pyromancies good?

Anons, its at 40/40/40. Regular SS would probably do better at just 40/40, and nobody would run 40/40/40 at all, especially with this game's meta.

There is literally nothing wrong with saying *cringes*.

use google you fucking retard

This is my answer to ganks.

Read the OP you double nigger
