>it's an "enemy with hyper armor and lots of health does an unstoppable 8 hit combo and you just have to wait for it to stop" episode

Stop it From

Ds3 has really good enemy design. Only thing is that they have some good attacks to counter r1 spam, but it just isn't fast enough, so they'll still get stunlocked.

it is fun, but you either gotta be patient with the poison, run around the mercury or use the ultra greatsword and realize it does less than a straight sword at best.

>DLC final boss is the snake from pic related
Pls

...

You already did that guy, From. He just gained weight, and a belly flop now. Still pissed that we can't get the two-man saw weapon, for the record.

Can I get a quick rundown on Souls lore?

Clandestine coat might make for a nice SS uniform.

nth for best boss

>Gwyn's daughter guarding the true first flame

Gwyndolin was totally a trap in DS1.

I think he adopted a more masculine identity after he stopped living in his father's shadow after DS1.

When it's a huge thing like that, it's almost certain to be a gimmick fight. I much prefer humanoid enemies desu.

Really? I actually got that for my jew character, so...

there is 4.5 bosses in TRC DLC2.

1. Demon Prince
2. Aman the Abyss Dragon
3. The White King
4. Gael the Mad
5. Filianore

Filianore is the most interesting, she has five stages:

1. filianore
2. pus of man

- dies and is reborn here -

3. avatar of man pt. 1
4. avatar of man pt. 2

- dies and is reborn for the last time

5. pain of ages

Hmm maybe not then.

Still new to DaS3. How the fuck do I get this brown nigger with a sword near Firelink Shrine? I can't parry for shit.

>no demon of feces
Seems fake.

parry

the new greatsword looks good, I really hope it has an original moveset

You hit him until he is dead. If he kills you try hitting harder next time.

jump

>the pigs at majula are harder to kill than hollows in armor
Explain this shit.

So how does using the black separation crystal regularly effect matchmaking?

Pigs have more souls.

It doesn't.

>tfw the cat in Majula is the only npc in the franchise who doesn't lie or try to control you

This thread is now blessed by Gravelord Nito and the Pardoners of Velka.

Laurentius, Benhart, Lucathiel, Crestfallen were very nice to us though

They're really fat

>dragons in charge of a boring, gray world
>flame appears out of nowhere
>creates light and shadows and shit
>4 people each take one piece of the flame which grants them immense power
>Furtive Pygmy (basically one of the first humans) takes his part and fucks off, splits his soul (the Dark Soul) to create humanity
>the other 3 (Gwyn, Witch of Izalith, Nito) decide to fight the dragons together with Seath the scaleles dragon who's a cuck and was bullied for not being a proper dragon
>Gwyn's son switches sides because he's a dragonfucking furry retard
>they fuck up the dragons real bad anyway. Kill almost all of them
>Witch fucks off beneath the earth and creates retarded pyromancies and demons (on accident) with her sisters
>Nito fucks off back to the Catacombs and chills there. he's based as fuck
>Gwyn gives Seath a big library near the big city he built for his family and lets him fuck his wife and/or daughter which may or may not have consequences later on
>in order to keep the flame burning you have to keep throwing shit into it (usually powerful beings)
>Gwyn sacrifices himself first and after him many more come to burn to keep the world as we know it going
>if you don't, the Flame will go out and the world will fall into darkness. No one really knows what exactly happens then, but it is implied in Dark Souls 3 that even if the flame goes out, some embers or smaller flames might appear somewhere, which basically means it's never too late to relight the flame

Some (a lot of this) may be wrong but Dark Souls lore is mostly retarded desu. Not many things are explicitly stated and you have to kind of piece it togerther. Just google if you wanna know more. That's just the early shit

>that damage
>it's probably just on NG

I'm pretty fucking excited for a fully relised Kiln area that was promised in the early leaks.

I'll still consider it tho, since idk what other top would work.

It's a pretty slow attack.
Lothric Knights hit just as hard

>Earthen Peak in DLC

So Lorian was the prince that the medusa bitch wanted to fuck?

earthen peak is there just to make a mockery of elevator and give lewd outfit
only now instead of going up nonsensically there's a hole down that nonsensically leads to DS1 firelink

>not Gwyn's son's evolved chaos bug form

Amd we already fought him in demon ruins anyway

There, 10 swordgrass. Thank god the best reward is the first one.
This was the first time in 3 I did much invading, and holy shit, Ds3 invasions might be the least fun thing in the franchise. Stacked odds, twinks and ganks everywhere, old news I know, but god damn. I thought people were exaggerating, but no, all true, it really is that bad.

Shalquoir is one of the most mysterious characters in the series.

What are you even talking about?

>Final boss is horribly mutated Solaire
>For the entire fight he's moaning garbled quotes from earlier games

Would love and hate this.

Ludleth is very honest, Siegward, Solaire, there's plenty examples.

FFFFF WHY ISN'T IT THE 15th YET

Because time is convoluted, user.

Hey guys i am downloading DS2 SOTFS, which i have never played before, i want to have fun but be a strengthfag, is that possible in ds2? Oh yea when i get the bonefists i'll probably replay all the bosses.

>Gertrude fucked an angel and laid an egg
But what does it all mean.

It means that the final boss is a angel baby.

what happens the 15th? dlc is out the 28th right?

>Part of watchdog gank covenant
>Still conplaining about stacked odds
Only annoying thing in ds3 pvp is healing pivot/being able to move, and rolling is low good for its low stamina costs.

Based Vaati gets to play the full DLC the 15th
He'll spoil everything

That nigga gets all the best shit.

>Final boss of DS is a burned dude
>Final boss of DLC is a massive sorcery using beast
>Final boss of DS2 is a decrepit lady
>Final boss of DLC2 is a massive flame using beast
>Final boss of DS3 is several burned dudes
>Final boss of DLC3 is a massive divine using angel

Poetry.

>DS2 SOTFS
>i want to have fun
user, I have some bad news.

That's because he's not a nazi like Pewjewsdie

Is there any story on why Cleric in DaS1 starts out in the Way of the White covenant? Do all clerics hail from there?

I don't care that you were disappointed and overhyped i don't have that problem so i'll be fine.

Absolutely
STR weapons are great in Dark Souls 2. Massive damage, lots of fun ones. Strike damage is OP
You can legitimately play through the game with only Greatshield jump attacks

Scaling is generally lower and base damage is MUCH higher

So, just where the fuck did the Dragonslayer's Armor come from? Its a pretty random boss all things considered.

Knight starts with WoW as well. I think it's just common for knights and clerics to be part of that faith.

Guy using dark sword that tried parrying my ultra greatsword nonstop. I thought those didn't exist anymore.

It's a suit of armor used by Lothric dragonslayers back in the day, animated by the Pilgrim Butterflies to prevent you from reaching the Grand Archives. What's not to get?

I'm doing a faith build in DS3. What should I expect?

It's never too late to be new

>disappointed and overhyped
It's just a bad game user. I can't speak for the DLC, but the rest of the DS2 is easily the worst in the series.

There's just as many darksword shitters as there is Butcher shitters.

is slutcat the tom bombadil-o of soulsbourne

I guess, but up to the untended grave? they should've at least learned that they couldn't parry me.

pve never teaches you what can and can;t be parried.
Hell, even pvp does a poor job of teaching that since there's no difference between an unparryable move and a failed attempt at parrying, and the inconsistencies in timing due to netcode mean that there's never any certainty that the failure was not human-error.

People only learn that ultras are all unparryable when 2H by looking it up online or dueling for hours and hours and hours. Random casual invaders who don't care enough to seek out a community don't really have any way of learning.

is there any difference matchmaking wise between SL120 and SL125?

will I miss all those SL100 fellas summoning me if I'm SL125?

Fair enough, I started by using great hammers so I kinda got it on my first run but I get that not everyone does that.

What's the DaS2 Longsword of DaS3?

Longsword.

>gank covenant
Shit, you're right, it must be even worse usually.

>Only annoying thing in ds3 pvp is healing pivot/being able to move, and rolling is low good for its low stamina costs.
That's it, huh?
The host is running away. What do you do?

>DaS3 will never have Sack as a helm slot
Why live, bros?

How likely is it that I'd get banned if I ce'd in 99 souls of a great champ and used them all as soon as I got to firelink?

>Playing around with rezuaq.tumblr.com/newArea
>Get Blight World
What sort of magical place is Blight World?

>decide to hop back into DS2 for invading
>get someone in Eleum Loyce
>immediately pulls the plug
>check his profile
>hundreds of hours between all three soul games

Glad to see some things remain unchanged

To hit things with a raw ASS then later switch to hitting things with a raw DCA, though you don't have to, they're just the best options basically. If you're okay with giving Irina severe conniptions you can get Gnaw, Deep Protection, and Dark Blade early on for some actually decent early miracles besides just heals. You can also slap Dancer and run the castle even earlier than that to get Blessed Weapon, Bountiful Light, and Magic Barrier from nearly the beginning of the game.

...

To lose faith in your build.
Don't. Seriously, don't. It's the worst class of magic in a game with really really bad magic.

>The Shrine
>The Londo
>The Brume Valley Tower of the First Flame

This is silly.

Doesn't exist

...

Post new WAs for existing weapons that have no chance of happening but that you think would be ten times more fun/cool than whatever shitty WA they have now.

>Great Mace: Blessed Strike
>Enchant the mace with light, allowing it to slowly regenerate the wielder's health and deal increased damage. Any attacks which strike a surface will leave behind a ball of energy which explodes after a delay.

>Fume Ultra Greatsword: Nadalia's Flame
>Call forth the power of Nadalia, Bride of Ash, to enwreathe the weapon with dark flames.

>Darkmoon Longbow: Gwyndolin's Barrage
>Charge the bow with magic power, and let loose a storm of arrows.

>Dragonslayer Spear: Dragonslayer Bolt
>Focus the power of lightning into the tip of the spear, and let loose a bolt of lightning at distant targets.

>The Ash Valley of Sacrifices
>Undead Crystal Domain of the Giants
>The Painted Quelaag's Londo
>Sen's Wood

Is this the Solaire being the rockworm theory?
Why is that theory even a thing?

>Sen's Road of the Boreal Valley

Do we have a release date yet for Ringed City?

I love this site, it can make some names that are just word vomit.
>The Fishing Stonefang Cathedral
>Consumed King's Eleum Loyce
>The Upper Tower of Defilement
>The Anor Memories Dungeon
>Dark Catacombs of Yorshka

Then you can get some that sound pretty good:
>The Lake of Mensis
>Grand Forest of Old
>The Drangleic Tower Of Flame
>Cainhurst Cemetery
>The Nightmare Palace

Thought "The Rest of the First Flame" will always be my favorite.

If I had any talent, I would do what this guy did and draw some of that stuff.

>Ash Cemetery of Ash
Well that's a bit redundant.

28th

> Dragon's Chasm

I will see when this shit gets done downloading.

...

>Dungeon of the Abyss.
Sounds like a final level.
