I wonder what was Sulyvahn master plan?

>painter loli will never sit on your face while she paints

Since these games began, people in general keep having unrealistic expectations. In Demons Souls was the missing arch stone, when two came out, basically people wanted what we have now in DaS 3.

KOJIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I didn't want reused animations and a lack of fun.

Holy shit, had no idea you could riposte them, i farmed them for loyce souls/armor for hours as well and whenever i tried nothing happened.

>You got lots of Str Weapons
With generic movesets, despite the enemies that use them having cool unique attacks.

>infinite running away and rolling
Hate it so much.

At least you aren't a caster that got garbage spells like way of white corona, snap freeze, and frost weapon.

Hey so if i have multiregion matchmaking on am i dumb and causing myself to fight lag?

Why wouldn't he?
Maybe he shouldn't use estus too? Or weapon?

>2handing a great weapon would give you a fast push instead of a kick

>only thing that changes kicks are rapiers and curved swords
>and that only makes it useless
Souls games are such wasted potential.

These games aren't for you. Str always loses to dex. Why do you insist on playing knowing From doesn't and never will care about you as much as they like dex?

>earth seeker is the generic shitty greataxe moveset
>instead of the bkga the millwood knight uses
It doesn't even make sense since the axe is double-edged.

You just put dark souls 3 on ezmode

here's a little secret for you
Froms "regions" are Japan and Not Japan
I have little faith that matters

help me

Is there an established soul level for Dark Souls 3 multiplayer? I know in DS1 it was about 120. I don't want to level myself out of matchmaking, especially since there doesn't seem to be a way to de-level.

They added that in one of the patches.

It's a problem with the game. Ise dried finger, get 2-3 invaders, see howlong you ca survive without even fighting.
Now try doing the sane in other games

Demon's Souls strength was pretty good.

>cool as fuck
hah

I like the fast backslash for rapiers since it's faster than the r1. Curved swords, there's no point other than cool style points. If they added more iFrames while you're using it then it might be a viable move.

they are simply using warcry version of great club r2 and WA of their own weapon

The SotFS patch or some patch around then made it so that any mid-size enemy immune to knockback would enter a ripostable state when you hit them with one.

Why are there no BP enemies in Dark Souls III?

Did I git gud or is das2 super easy?

I'm using a single dagger as my only weapon because I haven't found anything I like yet, and I've got 8 bosses down so far

How the fuck did i not know that using a zwei

I hate this place!
They are all mean in there and I can't find my oinion buddy!
Is it the only way for the Anor londo?
It's the first time in 24hours in game that omeone gave me a real direction so I feel like it's just a trap

...

Nothing. Shitposters gonna shitpost.

>see howlong you ca survive without even fighting.
Around 40 minutes
I once did it after clearing zone just to get hate mails

FROM doesn't want to bully the newcomers. They want them to have a fun time with their friends so they can quickly finish the game.

That's what you did in Demon's Souls
You blocked with the weapon and inflicted a heavy stagger that you could combo into an attack
It used the stability of your left hand weapon/shield, so you could have greatshield stability on your kick

Same glitch existed in Dark Souls 1 with right hand shield pushes

Casualization. Same reason Miyahacki kept them only with gravelords in DaS.

Dagger is very fast and strong weapon, you should infuse it with poison :)

Jesus!
Why would they they do this? there 5 (five) enemies that just ambush you!

Casuals don't NG+, they do everything on one bloated NG cycle, though.

Yup, that's the only way. Enjoy your stay in Sen's funhouse

Because youre an R1spamming faggit?

Really it's not that bad, once you know where all the traps are.

If you go through that area slower you never have to fight more than 2 before smelter (not counting archers).

Should I run as a backup:
Fire Sunlight Straight Sword
Rapier
or Estoc? Ds1.
I don't know if fire would be the best enchantment though.

take the dildo out of your ass and use that, faggot

git gud, not everything is a 'im rambo lets run in head first episode'

Yeah i know, I'm going through with Greatshield and that has almost trivialized the Alonne Knights by a shocking margin. I just forgot about this ambush and just got fucking wrecked.

No way! I want some strapping user to carry me with their cock all the way to the city of gods.

That is one of the worst areas in the entire game. You need to cheese with a bow and patiently draw them out one at a time.

Each of the DLC zones has an even worse area.

You sound upset, maybe you should make another Miyazaki post.

Tarkus can carry you through the boss of the area. Isn't that good enough?

Sunlight straight sword is awful due to its slower swing speed
Fire upgrade path is poor unless you're always dying and never have 10 humanity, otherwise chaos is much better
Low split damage weapons are very bad, you want big weapons like zweihander or greataxe
Combine the three for shit weapon

Rapier and estoc will do fine with leo ring

>cheese with a bow

Having to Aim while someone is running at you isnt cheesing.

The point isn't to use the bow to kill them. The point is to aggro them so that they chase after you one at a time and you can thin them out slowly.

I can't find his summon sign so I need my boipussy filled by pcbfs willing to do it for me.

>need
Nah, just go in and oneshot them all with a craftsman hammer or any great hammer

Friede and the ones coming in March.

No, i'm, i just never tried riposting after hitting enemies? Do you gave to be a faggot?

dude its in a tower with nothing else in it try exploring a bit before you start summoning help

Thats what i called you first, way to be original, git gud.

Or you can get a poison mist and gas them all.

You sure win at being a more original faggot.

>way to be original
>git gud.

reminder not to spoonfeed casuals

Greatshields are god like in DS2, especially when paired with a Lance and heavy Armor!
I feel like people really only had a problem with AGL being a thing is because most didn't bother trying to go with Heavy Armor and Great Shields. They still had the impression from ds1 that rolling was the way to go no matter what. I also really missed poison actually being really strong in this game. Poison Turtling as hilarious.

I'm also playing Demon's Souls on another console and I'm surprised that DS2 really is quite similar to Demon's in terms world design. I say Demon's still it far better but I like what is here in DS2.

It's not really fun for now!
I think I might need a bow for that magic-fag on the axe-bridge
Already using the traps to hurt the monsters. Quite a fun thing to do.

>implying you didnt just get trolled

>all these people complaining about Iron Keep

You don't even have to cheese your way with a bow, you just need to plan your route and git gud

>greatshields are overpowered
yeah dude we totes didn't know that
also
>vengarl set

>havels set +shield
>FUGS

Now you can EZMODO DaS2

Dude, you're missing drangleic set, it's accessible from pursuer's bossfight area (the one with ballistas). You shouls try it out.

>END not even at the soft cap
>using that pissant shield
>Vengarl set
>not going INT with Strong Magic Shield
You aren't even halfway there yet.

>FUGS isnerfed and no longer good
>armor is pointless
Just started playing DS3 and all the above is true?

>not powerstancing greatshields

Git gud.

wh-what's wrong with Vengarl's Set?

FUGS is definitely not day one tier anymore thats for sure. Its still good regardless

>in an FC
>Go on a 4 win streak with my super annoying cocksucker ranged build

;_;

nothing
it's just the ultimate new player sign

I don't wanna go to blighttown lads

alternatively, when should I start pumping endurance

after 40 dex/str?

I want to be able to roll while wearing actual armor

assuming you are a new player, just do it
blighttown is not as bad as memes make it seem as long as you don't try to rush through the area
> start pumping endurance
wherever you want
you only need the threshold for 50% weight with ring of favor

that's why you only come to /dsg/ fcs

but i will get bullied for being a bad player with a shit build

Correct. The event was literally them getting their asses handed to them by /dsg/.

Blighttown is great though
It's one of the best designed areas in the game. You should at least do it once for the tried and true Dark Souls Experience™

If it REALLY bothers you though, you can just use the master key and bypass the Depths and Blighttown completely.

post your build

I just don't like dark vertical areas and status effects. I'm still in the depths and terrified of getting fucked on by Basilisks

>DaS3
Should i go my usual str/fai paladin build from previous games, or go quality for weapon variety and stuff? I especially like greatbows.
