/dsg/ - Demon's and Dark Souls General

To force you to use your spices on the high level spells, instead of min-maxing with 10 Int/Fth buffs.

I mean, why else include spices in the first place?

What happens if I invade ppl as a mound maker. Will that fail Sirris quest line as well?

Might give this one a try too. Haven't played DaS2 in a very long time.

So basically, Dark Greatsword requiring 55int, when the softcap for hexes is 30int/30fai, is to justify the spices being there, when they could just as easily not be there, generating stupid busywork for the player.

>chuck some fightclub host off a cliff
>he alt+f4s while he's falling
I mean, ok? What does this change? Do you think I actually need those vertebraes?

nope
just don't give pale tongues to rosaria

NEED someone to make a gif/webm of nashandra doing her curse ball move only instead it makes (You)s pop out

it's for friend

I'm not sure if it would be harder or not. On the one hand, you're basically doing NG+ the whole time. On the other hand, you get a shitton of souls early on and you can be +10 SL70 before smelter demon and +10 SL120 before Drangleic castle. Probably depends on how you optimize, really.

>Do you think I actually need those vertebraes?
Who are you talking to?

>haven't played DaS2 in 2 years
>was my first souls game
>enjoyed it a lot
>consider it my favorite
>spend 10 hours installing
>replay it yesterday
>quit after last giant
>uninstall

Wow, i really let BB and DeS spoil me. I can't even enjoy DaS2 anymore.

What is this place supposed to be? Irithyll?

Anor Londo

What would be a fun character for 3?

Yeah, looks like Anor Londo to me. Time is convoluted and worlds are converging at the base of the High Wall, shit ain't gotta make no sense.

for reddit?
kek no.......

the person who unironically alt+f4s out of a death in meta levels

2 more months until nioh

2bh that kind of reply is exactly why i want it

...

wow das3's map is so tiny
DaS1 completely dwarfs it

>DaS1 completely dwarfs it
lol no

>kill some faggot "duelist" who waits for invaders after pontiff by baiting him through the level and making him fight with the archers on my side
>invade him again
>he teleports to me instantly and kills me with 20000% attackspeed

Why get butthurt about people using game mechanics against you, when you're the one searching for invaders in the first place?

>TFW luring invaders into the water reserve at irithyll and trolling them with the giant dogs

Ah right, what a convincing argument.

I think the only way I could enjoy it at this point is if I dropped souls for however long it would take me to forget how to play it, and then come back and start with das2

Even then I don't know if I could enjoy it

>DaS1 completely dwarfs it
Do you have some sort of size comparison?

On first glance, this seems very similiar to DaS1 to me.

So I just got done DS3 and I felt that the areas were generally smaller and bon fire placement was tight; the worst example being the dragon slayer armour and grand archives. I mean, it was still a challenge at points cause fuck the Pontiff Knights and Pontiff Sulyvahn. The game also felt very linear, like a very long and twisting hallway.

Hidden body + ng+7?

What's the best way to beat someone who spams nothing but Homing Soul Mass?

ng+3 only, but its working out well.

round of applause

try stabbing in the back

Don't give them the space to cast it. Just fucking sprint at them until they switch to a weapon. If you have a fast weapon, do some sprint attacks.

>Bought the Season Pass months ago
>Don't even feel like playing the second DLC anymore and just want From's new game already
How does Souls already feel more overdone than Assassin's Creed at this point lads?

The games all look the same, AC atleast had different architecture.

AC's gameplay barely changed but they implemented new things like brotherhood managing and sea battles. The settings were also wonderful.
We had 5 From games now that were the same shit with a different skin and 3 of them had the same story. Or make that 4, DkS is just DeS with different names for things.

>invade as a purple
>decide to help a host kill aldrich invaders
>host backstabs me while I'm fighting an aldrich dude and I die
>he immediately gets murdered by the aldrich dude

Now I remember why I never help the hosts

Why is it so damn satisfying to crush scrub hosts and their phantoms?

Why is it so satisfying to hide with obscuring ring and stalk your prey and when they're in the middle of an intense fight with mobs, run in and murder them and watch as the host panics and tries to flee?

What's the rough chance of a chaos bug dropping a sunlight medal? At max discovery

can some CE magicians come closer to "not real" locations ?

It's just some low res low polygon buildings that you can see from the undead settlement, archdragon peak and the cathedral. They're just there for decoration on the horizon.

What's the point of this webm, you barely did anything.

None of his webms have a point

>that pathetic owcs damage

it's just a copy of the undead settlement

meant for

This one is like the worst of them all. 1 running attack that changed nothing and edgy autistic writeup.

>tfw Vordt disappeared

Never seen this glitch before

>summoning for vordt

I've literally been getting summoned non-stop the last 15 minutes for Vordt.

Nice way to farm for some embers while getting a good amount of souls.

>it's a red teams up with the host episode

Rosaria's Fingers need only fetch tongues for their mistress.
Otherwise, we are free, unchained.
Like Yellowfinger, you can choose to believe that all Fingers share camoradarie.
But do not force your romance on the rest of us.

you don't get a tongue for HELPING HOST though

I want to play DaS1 with 30 faith / str build and a claymore
is that a shit idea?

My ass, Heysel is the cuntiest of the fingers, go cuck yourself Leonhard

>camoradarie

Here's a fun little fact

The red knows he doesn't get rewarded for killing you.
However, the red also knows he has to kill the host afterwards anyways.

If a red kills you, it means you were being such a gigantic faggot that he'd rather kill you first and take his chances 1v1 with the host, rather than fight him with you.

>sacrifice some weak ass nigga to gain trust
>backstab host when it hurts the most

No, STR/FTH is very viable. Are you forgoing DEX for STR though? You'll be missing out on scaling if you do. A hammer would benefit more from pure strength.

>start playing DaS1 with a friend
>a hour old character, knight set+claymore mid rolls, friend in pyromancer starter equipment
>invaded by some father mask faggot in overpowered equipment with some greathammer near gargoyles
>he STILL almost dies from me and has to chug a humanity to kill my friend with no pyromancies
How can people be this bad? Why do they even bother ganking newbies?

that's what I get for copying it from fextra

I don't know, my character is pretty low still. Should i go 30/30 on str/dex too? I don't really like hammers.

27 str is an effective 40 while 2handing in das1, so 27str/40fth is good point investment. you don't have to use hammers, just any weapon that scales primarily with strength.

I want to terrorize every block holding parry spammer.

What setup should I use? Tired of having to play endless mind games with these fucking mouth breathers.

>game tries to connect to the same host 10 times in a row
>times out each time
The fuck is going on?

>fextralife

How much poise do you need to beat black flame?

ten million

I wish I had started using gundyr's halberd earlier

>hit some faggot host twice
>he's already pussying out and trying to chug
>sprint up to him and use the WA
>he gets hit mid roll, he gets knocked down
>wake up WA
>he gets knocked down again because he just tries to panicroll like he's used to doing
>wake up WA
>he's dead
No chugs allowed

Just get yourself a Manserpent Greatsword instead of the claymore. Same weapon class, but with pure STR scaling.

Usually ultra great weapons are the best for that, with something quick hidden in another slot. Attempting to parry an ultra weapon is asking for death.

Anyone on ps4 up for helping mule a few things over to my new guy?
Pass is dsg, I'm at the first high wall bonfire.

Please note that Gundy's Funstick has a higher AR at 66 STR than it does at 40/40.

Is it at all possible to get banned from DaS1?

Quakestone hammer or great club?

Making a blunt pvp man.

Pyromancy, especially sacred flame.

Stop insulting Heysel, she is cute.

Not really, no.

Great club is fucking amazing, especially with the roll catch, good luck getting away faggot.

>want to do low level invasions
>ornsteins, lorians, black knight hosts everywhere
Or havel hornet-parry spamming faggots doing a gank squad with fucking reds

I'm using it at 40 str and base dex, since I'm running a str faith build.

A decent weapon art will still hit for up to 900 damage, though. Just the last hit alone is usually around 480.

>it's almost 2017
>DaS3's pvp is still worse than das2

Twink

40 int/ 40 faith.

twin dragon greatshield, followers flame, black flame

any short/longsword you like

if they try to parry bait you, shit on them with a double black flame

you can also combo an r1 hit, into a black flame if it staggers, and basically instantly win

this is THE parry spam destroyer

>greatshields
i'm not a faggot user

What's wrong with twinking in buttbuddies 3?

who cares

the build is literally designed to make parry baiters and spammers want to off themselves

gotta mix in some R2s, you R1 spammer.

Oh I win, I just don't like having to play around people pressing parry every time they swing their sword once, or you look at them funny. Even played against a max hp regen parry spamming person earlier.

It got boring quick.

>ganking faggots
>kill the host 3 times in a row, solo
>try to add him on steam to suggest he let his other buddy host because hosts that die make ganks zero fun
>he blocked me in fucking advance
lol

>SotFS Early Pursuer fight is the same
>the only way they could think to not make it a joke is to have the arena filled with Hollows

This doesn't make it harder, just more annoying
