I missed it, and proper bow on my last cycle, and I have other characters with Silvercat I could give, so I'd just like to get proper bow on another cycle.

And thus began the reign of Great Corvian Dagger alongside Poison Rotten Ghru Dagger.

>Increased the damage of Poison and Toxic dealt by players, and shortened its duration. What did they mean by this?
Mason Carter
pretty sure it is
Josiah Martinez
It means that the total damage is the same but it now does that damage over a shorter period of time.
It also means that this only applies to the status if a player triggers it, and not if it's triggered by the environment/pve
Lucas Peterson
Did you mean Havel's + Warpick? If so then yes, and when the new patch rolls in, hell yes
Brandon Reyes
Well, yeah. But does it mean that poison /toxic will be actually useful in pvp?
Ryder Baker
meant Havelshield + Estoc turtling
if that's not viable anymore good fucking riddance
Aiden Sanders
Does Sunlight do best with something like 60 Faith and 20/20 for Str/Dex, or 40/40 Str/Dex?
James Barnes
Until the game introduces interesting ways to play around shields in pvp, yes.
It's not actually particularly strong anymore in 3 because the estoc was nerfed and shield counters do exist, it's just really fucking boring to play against. Most of your wins will come from people that just don't have the patience to counter you, or otherwise forgot to carry a proper anti-shield option
Nathan Morris
bamp for lewds.
Cameron Garcia
Yes since Poison does a lot of damage as is if you wait out the status bar but it takes so long it never does a noticeable amount in fights.
Noah Ramirez
>lacking reading skills apply yourself.
It is. I dropped it for an user just a week or two ago.

I JUST CAME BACK AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE PATCH NOTES
ARE THEY FUCKING REAL?
Lucas Hughes
Heavy armor ultra great weapons
Nerfing refined and bleed
Jaxon Wood
Not while Memezaki controls the ship friendo. Swing a weapon or swing yourself into a noose.
Jeremiah Thomas
Post cute witches
Sorcerery isn't bad pve wise just underwhelming. Did you mean pvp? Cause there's no better feeling then sneaking up on a host and crystal soul spearing em.
James Green
no they're fake
patch out on Friday
Ayden Sanchez
We did a strawpoll on which notes would seem the best and did an epic troll using hackers
Isaac Mitchell
>Decreased motion of normal attack while dashing for Katanas. Improved motion of any other normal attacks. >Improved motion of normal attack for Ultra Greatswords, Great Hammers and Curved Great Swords. >Decreased stamina depletion when attacking using Ultra Greatswords, Great Hammers, and Greataxes.
No way this is real. No fucking way.
Connor Hill
>Wildly swinging nerf and buffs, still no cure for Magic being dogshit outside of pyro Believe it user.

But the crystal spear is useless if it doesn't kill in a single hit
Christopher Bailey
>Cause there's no better feeling then sneaking up on a host and crystal soul spearing em. >Host loses a third of their health >Host proceedes to chug sunny D then shoves his short sword down the casters throat Best feeling.
Juan Thomas
WHY ARE THEY NOT BUFFING WHIPS?
Brody Murphy
Damn i want to fug Karla
Austin Davis
>hit someone in the back with CSS >start casting another one the instant the first has left my staff >second is mid-air before the first has even hit the target >first one lands >host panic rolls once and then chugs >chug happens so fast it heals him before the second one lands And he has more estus than I have casts of this spell. Fuck DaS3.
Parker Jones
Yeah it usually doesn't ohko but brings em down to very low health. That's why you have homing spells/a straight sword/spear on the side to finish em off.
Nathan Scott
>Shortened attack window of Carthus Curved Sword and Dark Sword, Gargoyle Flame Spear and Follower Sabre
So, does that mean the attacks come out quicker, or does it mean that their hitbox only applies damage in a smaller unit of time?
Christopher Ramirez
It means they're slower. It's just an awkward translation of awkward japanese phrasing.
Adam Brooks
I read that as a longer attack window for consecutive swings, so a nerf to r1 spam.
Nicholas Butler
on release I spent hours invading before yorm and soul streaming down that hallway were hosts and friends would gather. I don't actually know if obscuring ring hides at the edge of lockon distance but I was using it and constantly blasting the whole squad at once. no one seems to summon there any more though
Jordan Gray
>making ultra weapons great again >nerfing katanas and CSS
I think I'm gonna cum
Liam Campbell
I assumed it meant shorter attack range, given that those are some of the longest weapons in their class
Kevin Brooks
Why would you summon for the second easiest gimmick boss? He only slightly edges out the Wyvern in toughness.
Jaxson Reyes
I assume it means that the amount of time that the weapon actually does damage during the swing animation is reduced?
Evan Ward
Dumb animeposter
Nicholas Adams
>Increased rate at which Frostbite builds up when using Vordt's Great Hammer, Irithyll Straight Sword, and Friede's Great Scythe. >but not Irithyll Rapier Why is this? It it because it's the only one out of the three that's affected by Leo Ring?
Connor Ward
>new ending Do people actually expect this?
Brandon Martin
it's fun
Luis Bailey
because the Rapier is already decent
Kayden Perry
I'm not expecting it but I'm not going to rule it out either.
Christian Murphy
Spotted the salty dexfag Prepare to be FUGS'ed
Gabriel King
I usually don't summon for DS3 because it's the most unfun thing I can do, not because I want a challenge, but because it will most likely not work and I will get stuck with a boss that has a huge healthpool and my phantom will be stuck on the other side of the fog wall unable to come in. Honestly the netcode is one thing I wish they'd fix. Weapon buffs and nerfs are great, but I would think that the netcode is something they would have high priority on fixing.
Lucas Myers
>One day away from release >Still no leaks on the ending or final boss COME THE FUCK ON
Jonathan Mitchell
I really wish there was some proper way to finding out who the invader was other than having CE on at all the times. Seriously, why don't we get Steam Profile ID as an option to show character name like on consoles.
Had a dumb invader with Gotthard Memesword with max estus. He kept trading with me not realizing mace's superior poise trading capabilities, then just stood by fucking blue knight. I just went ahead threw firebombs then started boss fight. I wish I had some dung pies to throw at him.
Cameron Phillips
>increased defense of heavy armor Oh hell ye- >and weight
I really want to believe they're increasing the defense a lot more than they're increasing the weight, but who the hell knows
Kayden Nguyen
It comes out seven days from now, not one.
Owen Davis
It releases in a week, ***ga.
Josiah Cox
wait I thought it came out on the 25th, which is 4 days from now.
Carson Phillips
One week from release user. Week.

>Seriously, why don't we get Steam Profile ID as an option to show character name like on consoles. You can check that from your steam profile tho, just see who you played with recently
This . . .actually works. Though I'll have to figure out who's who if more than 1 phantom present.
Doesn't helps. Steam likes to add in people who were trying to connect to me and failed. I think half of them are Blue's game is trying to connect me with but something just happens.
Owen Campbell
I was surprised by how not boring Yhorm without Siegward or Storm Ruler was.

Bullshit. It keeps rising until its purpose is fulfilled. It's as Undead as any of us.

Adrian Walker
So what Ultra Greatswords are actually fun to use in anticipation of fridays patch?
Jackson Martinez
Okay, someone help me make this work. I'm doing a build that's centered exclusively on using the door shields with GMS, and side miracles for maximum co-op.
The whole problem is that the attempt to diversify with a single sorcery and support miracles, along with minimal addition to Attunement, leaves it severely stretched out. I'm not even sure that Sacred Oath would be worth it (even for PvE), in which case I could simply strip the Faith and bump it into Attunement for more FP and slots, and maybe branch into Snap Freeze and possibly Pestilent Mercury. Not having to constantly have Darkmoon Ring equipped would also free up a ring slot for things like Skull Ring or Chloranthy +2.

I wish there was some short of character viewer to see how armors and shit fits in your character before going for them
Christopher Martinez
I don't really buy anything on steam, since I prefer having physical copies of my games, but I couldn't find Dark Souls 1 in any shop, so I figured maybe I'd buy it straight from Steam.
So I've got two questions: Is there a way to predict when there will be a sale on DaS 1? Do they give this info beforehand?
And the second thing is: is the game still alive? Will I be able to find people to duel and invade?
Ethan Thomas
I like the Profaned Greatsword and Farron's ultra greatsword. The latter is pretty bad objectively - parriable, no str bonus for two handing, low damage, but it's just fun to use for me.
Jack Mitchell
All of them except the Farron Memesword
Isaac Harris
does the way of the blue work better in the early game?
Joshua Gray
Was ruined by your host Bowing.
Aiden Flores
Wait for announcements on the front page for sales. These happen very regularly, at least once per season (Easter sale, summer sale, Halloween sale, Christmas sale), with frequent publisher clearances and more. Best way is to add DaS1 to your wishlist and get the automatic notification via e-mail that it's on sale.
The game still gets occasional activity, but you need at least two mods installed for it to reach functionality. Duels don't seem to happen much, if at all, but you may get the occasional invader.
Tyler Lopez
>And the second thing is: is the game still alive? Will I be able to find people to duel and invade?
About half of the PC players use DSCM, you can see their numbers here: dscmstat.us/

Doubt it. We're going even further into the past than Dark Souls 1, we're going to the ringed city which is from Gwyn's reign.
