Welcome to 2015/10

PURGE FILTH

>only 5% of wheel users have a properly gemed 1 hand wheel

Have another one

Finally got Ludwig tonight, with the Whirli but without spamming L2. Laurence is the only story/DLC Ive never beaten now, but I hear he's just ridiculously broken.

oath conflicts don't need a pass?

...

That place looks familiar. You have a glyph?

I think it's either a fixed or a tier 3 rune glyph from bb-wiki

I recorded this monday so I don't remember, sorry

Guys, Im going to find guidance 3 tonight

gl user

Provost Willem, I'm Healing Church.
Tell me about Bloody Crow, why does he wear the mask?
This Cainhurst Summons lists me, my Executioners, Master Logarius here but only one of you!
Lotta loyalty for a wretched vilecuck!

im doing my first pure arc build.
should I lvl up 2 stats in STR to be able to use toni? if I do that I won't be able to get 99 arc and still be blood level 98.
how good is the tonni on a pure arc build?

>tfw you will never beat Ludwig solo in NG+7

Anyone want to join me for Micolash?
I'm ringing at the fog, pass bbg

I've heard that it's actually viable, mostly because the damage in tricked form scales directly with Arc over Str.

Nothing is impossible if you try hard enough.

I would not personally bother trying to go to NG+7 if I didn't enjoy the game.

>doing 99 ARC
>while only being BL98

do you even math?

Starting with Cruel Fate puts you at BL 95 if you go 99 Arc

DELETE THIS

You can also use the Tonitrus and remain at BL 97, if you're going for that.

I wish horizon zero dawn had a good post game/end game

Is Gascan the same hunter that gives you the contract at the game start?

I'd say no. Very different voices, the guy at the beginning is listed as the "Blood Minister," and is in a wheelchair.

No that's another guy that's turning into a beast

We miss you gondola user

If you read this thank you for all of your hard work! These memes will forever be treasured by us!

If we post enough Gondola, could we summon him?

We have to try

...

After 300 killed brainfuckers still no arcane gem. End my life.

Ihyll?

Yes.

Use discovery runes

Do those affect the quality of the gem dropped, or just the drop rate?

Drop rate only.

...

grab attacks in this game are fucking magnetic

...

yeah it's artificial difficulty to be honest

...

...

>shit grab attacks that never connect

War with North Korea starts in ~6 hours.....

What makes you say that?

...

>war with north korea on my birthday

Neat

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH~

Not trying to start a game war but why are BB fans more forgiving of DaS2 than the regular Souls fan?

We're just not very angry

Because there's no reason to give a shit about DaS2 when you can play Bloodborne.

PCucks who put DaS on the pedestal.

Plus BB is really good so there isn't need to trash a decent game. I imagine if BB was not as good as it is there would be more people defensive about it.

das2 is shit

A huge problem actually is honoring DaS as the untouchable sacred cow. They won't hear a bad word against it, at any point in time. Since it was the first Souls game for people on PC, they'll patronize it beyond belief and claim the rest are shit. Look at the Capra Demon boss fight, if they tried that in DaS 2, people would riot. But since it was in DaS, it's all okay.
That isn't to say that DaS 2 and 3 are masterpieces, of course.

These are amazing

They really are, aren't they?

I enjoyed the capra demon fight. That feel when you enter the fog into a small room and you seen Satan himself with two machetes and two demon dogs was great.

Plus it wasn't that hard you just had to run up the stairs and dance with the goat a bit

Indeed!
I only have gondola orphan left on my phone

Is the DLC on disc in the GOTY or yo have to download still?

Now imagine the same thing was in DaS 2, but was never in DaS. Small area, two mob dogs to deal with, relatively gimmicky. Many fires would start as a result.
The point is, some people so adamantly refuse to acknowledge any single flaw in DaS. We recognize the flaws in BB when we see them, we don't hold our hands over our ears about the issue.
Take this one, it pairs well with the one you posted.

>go to NG+ before starting the chalice dungeons
>completely forgot to get make contact and talk/kill the brain of mensis despite dropping it
>don't have the living string

fug

Let's settle this


Ds1 and BB are timeless classics
DeS is a amazing game
Ds2 and Ds3 are good games

Bloodborne a best
DaS1 p. good
DeS p. good
DaS3 is fine
DaS2 a shit

Thank you good hunter

DeS, DaS, and BB are great games.
DaS2 and DaS3 are okay games, but what were they thinking? Seriously. Some of the weirdest design choices.

Anyone wanna run fishing hamlet with me? BL65 pass is bbg

I'm 50 omw

I'll join you

Ringing at first lamp. And according to my BHM, one of you already connected to me.

Cannon and whiligig?

Indeed

Kicked me offline

May have to reset internet, if it comes to that, I can't come

Gonna reset my ps and ring again. Unless you're the phantom with wheel or church pick?

Wheel

I'm the one with the pick

Wheel here, nvm go on without me

Ringing again

I'm an idiot

Still there, Albatross? I can ring at second lamp if you want.

>Dark Souls 3 finally has the best story in the series
I bet you're all pissing yourselves right about now

I'll be there

>Dark Souls 3 finally has the best story in the series


Relatively Insignificant NPC in The Old Hunters:
>name was Adeline
>was a blood saint, gave blood like Adella
>still devoted to the tenants of the church and won't break the rules even when strapped into a chair going nuts
>loves Lady Maria
>addicted to brain fluid and the sticky sound
>dislikes herself considerably, once thought of herself as nothing, part of the reason why she enjoys the rapture of the brain fluid so much
>terrified of being alone, so much so that she parts with the one thing Lady Maria gave her

Final boss of the entire Dark Souls Series:
>Name was Slave Knight Gael
>Is old, maybe part of an executioner's order
>wants blood of dark soul for his painter niece
>eventually figured out that he couldn't bring it back without going crazy but kept going anyway
>Maybe wanted to live in her painting

TRC is an embarrassment, especially from a story standpoint.

wtf i hate bloodborne now

You used a terrible example because we actually know more about Gael but I agree with you nonetheless.

Thanks Albatross, nice running with you. I got pretty sloppy on the way to OoK.

We don't, that's the whole point of the post
He has a thing that he does but that is effectively everything we know about his character

>Is old, maybe part of an executioner's order

We know he is from an order of slave knights. It's in his fucking name and armor. This just proof that, despite being right, you're an idiot that doesn't know shit about DaS3 lore.

Sure it is terrible, but not in the way you are presenting.

Yeah, no problem.
It was a great time

The point about the executioner's order comes from his sword, which is something the game says he's had since the beginning. In other words that might've been what he was before his time as a slave. Even if you wanted to add that as a separate point, when it's already conveyed by the first one pretty apparently, Adeline still has more back story. I don't know what you're getting so angry about.

How long will it be before DS3 stop getting brought up in this general again

2 weeks

What do you think of it?

Beast Blood Pellets:
Is the effect negated when you use EPS like it is with converted weapons?

How do I handle living failures?

just don't reply
