>high level character on NG+

>no characters ready for DLC

I just don't feel like playing anymore.

My sunlight straight sword hits for 850 AR with some miracles, and i don't even need to be at 20% hp

How many armor sets will the dlc have?, need more fashion for my game.

black serpent with CBV is viable

lowfaith is great, but hardly something you'd call a build

the immolation tinder is fun, and great farron darts/farron flashsword are okay

body buffs aside from regen getscaled down in pvp, hyper mode isn't a great call if that's what you're referring to

And how much of that is buffs, which don't do anything in pvp?

weapon buffs work in pvp, they're just not worth the investment compared to resin

>implying it'll take you more than 3 or 4 hours to reach the DLC from any of those points

That's the nice thing about DaS3, it's so short and linear that you can do a playthrough in a fraction of the time it would require to beat any of the other two.

Which is also the bad thing about it, it's so short and linear that even the DLC won't save it.

______ :^) ______

Around 300, wich kills any build in 3-4 hits, looks like it does a pretty good job on pvp

It doesn't even have a running heavy attack.

>hits for 850 AR
What?
Does this mean your sword does 850 damage or that you have 850 AR? those are two very different things user.

Sacred oath, including sunlight straight sword's weapon art, doesn't do anything in pvp

How does this happen?
CE? Glitch?

Hits for 850, care to explain what AR means?

No, I mean weapon buffs like "buffs for weapons," like blessed weapon, flame arc, dmb etc, hence the resin comparison

Do the dragon stones scale with any stats?

CE I'd say, reviving him after the door is open.

>40/40/40 STR/DEX/FTH lothric UGS buffed with LB reaches around 830 split AR
>a fucking 40/40/16 straightsword can surpass that with a single damage type
is memezaki serious
even if it only works in PvE, it's still fucking retarded

Final boss of DLC2: Punished Solaire, Lord of the Abyss

And when I said buffs I meant both weapon and body buffs because we're talking a weapon with an innate body buff
Because you're sure not going to reach 850 AR with DaS3's shittastic buffs

if you're actually doing 850 damage per swing your AR is definitely going to be listed as higher than 850. AR is the rating on the stat page.

Sacred oath is a worse version of SSS weapon art,

Here's a tip, SSS weapon art + deep protection + sunlight blade/darkmoon blade.

Y-you mean... HIM?!

Yeah I'm not the 850 guy, and I doubt he's reachign that with weapon buffs. I was just clarifying that weapon buffs don't get downscaled the same way.

> SSS weapon art + deep protection
>he doesn't know

>SSS weapon art
Doesn't work in pvp
>deep protection

>sunlight blade/darkmoon blade
Adds maybe 80 actual damage

>Doesn't work in pvp

U wot? I've been casting these for nothing? Why don't they work?

is there any vid of the phosphorescent pole in action? i thought it was a staff of the caster kind but apparently it's a staff of the best kind

Why is this allowed?
It's looks like most PS4 "community" wasting their time at 140SL shittery after pontiff instead of invading real ganks at 80-100SL outside pontiff trash hole

Sure thing buddy, only makes any build in front of me literally melt

>Adds maybe 80 actual damage
but that's a lot of damage, especially on a fucking straightsword

>Wanted to switch to the witch ring mid invasion and was in such a hurry that I just went by visual clues and accidentally equipped Calamity

>he doesn't know
Placebo. Everything is nerfed in pvp. It's like resilience in WOW. Maybe you think clutch rings give you 25% damage in PVP?

...

>vidya

It's a glitch. At least that was what the user said 1st time posted that months ago (I think)

Here's the build, was fighting both vicars and bloodshades.

I heard about clutch and steel protection not working but not about the miracles. What's the point of faith then?

These have never not been wrong, just stop.

>quality
kys

You can't pvp with sunlight spears buddy, gotta get those hits somehow.

Bet you use CCS don't ya?

>druid
>str/dex
what the fuck?

>tfw aquarius
BOI, I knew I was born a meme.

>WoG
>No lightning stake/storm
???

>SSS
works, but the damage/defense is halved in pvp and it only adds about as much stam regen as grass
>DP
works, but has the same problems as the prior, doesn't stack with things like tears, is worse than grass
>SLB/DMB
I know flame arc with a +2 flame and 10/12 gives me 93 additional AR, two points shy of lightning resin's 95, so I'd imagine you're underestimating them a little. Maybe not SLB given the amount of lightning resistance people have, since you're talking in terms of actual damage rather than just AR.

Yeah, but it isn't much more than what a resin would give you, so investment wise it's not that worth it.

>tfw sick and sound like a 13 year old with throat cancer

Trying again. High Wall FC. Pass is dsg

Can't play too good so get those signs down

Rapier builds best builds

>tfw you were put on the shadow server last week and it's impossible to copy saves to another account in DS3 now
>DLC soon
I can't fucking play through this game again

Don't use that in pvp, and if i want to use a fucking spell i shall use sunlight spear at point blank range so i can deal 1750+ damage with the 60% bonus melee range damage.

Booting up my Atari

Da fuck is this? I'm crying right now lmao

>What's the point of faith then?
Why FTH weapons don't have FTH scaling?
>they add glorious E scaling in patch after 4 months
Why Crescent Moon Sword, MOON sword that shoots MAGIC laser beams didn't had INT scaling for 4 fuckin months?
Just becasue DS3 is kusoge

>What's the point of faith then?
Its offensive spells of course.

PC?

>no Ophiuchus
0/10 see me after class.

>1141HP
>invaders have more HP than you
>they can trade against your Sunlight Spear because of hahaha 1141HP

What's the scaling?

some of the low faith miracles are good, plus there are weapons like the swordspear which require a fair bit.

You can just have two attunement slots and 10 faith, throw on darkmoon and priestess ring, attune blessed weapon, replenishment, then tears, join a game, cast tears, replace darkmoon with hornet, chug blue, cast blessed weapon and replenishment, then replace priestess with sun princess ring. Badaboom, tears, some damage, and a bunch of regen for 2 attunement slots and probably just one point of faith.

Yep

>sunlight spear at point blank range so i can deal 1750+ damage
>1750+
Only in you dreams

So with miracles being mostly useless, what should I equip in PVP?

4 slots, 30 FTH.

>trying to tank in a game without poise
>dies anyway without dealing damage

>pure dex
Fuck outta here faggot
Str all the way

I'd suggest dropping to 3 slots and going to 35 faith for DMB and soothing regen

>ophishit
no one wants to be the cuck sign

>30 FTH.

>tfw taurus

Any miracle that doesn't benefit from faith scaling. Heal spells are also alright.

Originally it was 60, I respecced at Rosaria

Faith should always be 0, 10, 15 or 60
No in between

>1750 damage SLS

HAAAAAAAAAAAAA

No need to pretend that anyone plays on console

Blessed weapon, ToD/regen, refined weapons.
Welcome to Dark souls 3.

>forgetting 18 for swordspear
boy

>HA
>SS, CCS R1 mash

Come on guys. Signs down and dicks out.

>pccucks STILL roleplaying with reddit e-celebs

feels good playing on sony master race

>tfw had to get 18 faith for swordspear

>shadow server
Does that exist?

>pccucks
>bloodborne-Kopya
>Kopya

Do halberds have a sweetspot?
How is Charge not the best weapon art?

Usually for people who get softbanned

Is it pc, summon sign is there for 10 minutes and nobody is summoning me.

Oh boy, I sure am glad I ended up deciding to play on Ehlan again.

I'm only home 2h from now, sorry user

Besides the invalid data hard ban, softban exists too. And just like in 2 I did not believe in it until it hit me.
Just put my sign at the FC to confirn it and it seems like it's true.
My fault anyway, should just have stopped playing instead of CEing shit in because I was too sick of the game to play through it again.

>DS invasions will never be great again
>clutch ring
YAMERO

are there any sorcery builds that don't suck

18 STR 18 DEX 60 INT

Its PC. Pass dsg. Got two guys right now. Hoping for more
