What the fuck? Never seen this message before

Did you go offline before changing your name?

I changed it loads of times and didn't get banned

We know, we saw you say it a minute ago.

Yes. I didn't change anything else either.

Daily reminder that Halflight is Manus.

1. Yea you missed someone in the later half of Undead Settlement
2. What kind of build are you going for?

>played through the game a bunch of times
>decide to try sorcery for once
Holy shit, why can't I hold all this damage?

PRAISE MYAZAKI

TRULY AN AMAZING ADDITION TO DS3

I didn't get enough (You)'s.

Guys can anyone throw an avelyn and blacksmith hammer for my twink? I'll gladly trade for some some other shit nad suck ur dikk

Its a fucking mod Lobos is using for his run how many times does he have to say that
Go sit in Twitch chat with the rest of the people with no listening skills

>1. Yea you missed someone in the later half of Undead Settlement
Ait, I'll go back there and explore a bit more. Even though I don't use and don't want to use miracles.

>2. What kind of build are you going for?
So far I've just been pumping strength. I forgot about diminishing returns on stats post 27 in DS1, is it the same in DS3? In that case I fucked up because I have 35 strength, but I guess I can change it with the dead chick in cathedral.

>try sorcery
Sucks that to properly mage you have to wear the same boosting items.

Sorcery is OP vs PvE. I don't know about PvP though.

So has anyone gotten "stuck" by a mad phantom invasion glitch on the spears of the church fight before? I'm having fun with the glitch but I noticed it stops the boss from summoning sometimes making the host stuck. I wondering what happens when I leave, does the host remain stuck or does the boss appear after that? I don't want to be a dick just have fun the glitch.

>tfw cant make a whip only build thats strong and viable enough for PvP AND PvE

fucking ree

The most common soft caps for str and dex are 40, but you can also go 66 str so when you 2 hand you have 99 str, becausw of the multiplier. For me, the most fun strength weapon that early on is the Great Club, just because of how great the R2 is.

I know he uses a randomizer, but I didn't see anything about the calamity ring destroying FK souls. The reddit thread had nothing either. And I'm not watching the whole run, not THAT into watching people play

>Can only Rosario 5 times

What the fuck

Why

pretty much I hate being forced to look like a tard

Best place to farm evangelist? I've been going into Cliff Underside and just kill the one near the bridge then cross to the giant tower and drop to the fire demon area to kill the other two and go back.
Someone said I should go crystal sage bonfire towards cathedral and kill that one since it's faster.
Alternatively, does anyone have a spare spiked mace and evangelist hat?

Dreamcast.
pc.

Meant for

Yeah that crossbow is a joke. It can be annoying if you catch someone when chugging estus but the damage tickles.

I think the mechanics of the weapon prevent it from being balanced eitherway. Buff it and it becomes OP and it is utter shit as it is right now.

Anyone?

>no way to effectively do a Richter Belmont run

I feel your pain user.

______CE__________

Ok yea the mod didnt mention it either to keep it as a surprise. It just dissolves them to prevent estus shenanigans.

Oh, so 40 str is fine before diminishing returns make it unworth it in DS3? Neat. Is the great club good for PVE or mainly PVP?

I'm dumb user. Like, real fucking dumb. I just finally was able to get the game, I don't want to risk getting banned because I'm a retard who forgot to tick a box. I'm willing to trade for the spiked mace and evangelist hat obviously, just tell me what ya need.

Is Boss Rush user still here? I'm tryna help you slay the Old Demon King.

>change from vancian spellcasting to fp-bar
>people cheer
>everything costs a fuck-ton fp
>fp regen from simple infusion so low it might as well not exist, practically no other form of fp regen or cost reduction exists
>only fp recovery in form of ashen estus, which you have to sacrifice health estus for
Why did people think the fp-bar was going to be a great change again?

>they brought back the fucking crown and spell damage items after ds2 did the right thing by removing them
why the fuck does this game hate casters so much?

Maracas are extremely underrated.

seconding this question

Love me some Coop

a pity they can't be 2handed

Great Club fucks people up in PVP due to the long swings and lagging R2

When I was farming them I just picked the bonfire near the bridge and birch tree then continually killed that one overlooking the area before the bonfire. If you get her attention and then stand under her for a second you can usually make her jump down which makes for an easy backstab.

You circumvented a filter or entered an invalid name, assuming you did everything else correctly. I don't really know what else to say. I've been changing character names constantly since the first tables dropped.

Sorry you got burned, user. Just delete the character in question and wait a few days or weeks for the system to remove your flag. If you're impatient, just Family Share the game using steam and make a new character. Feel free to use CE on that one; if you get banned you just Family Share again.

Its pretty good for PvE since the charged R2 will kill and ragdoll most things if you can sneak up on them, and it should be pretty good in PvP because its an UGH and has poise. The R2 is good at catching people unaware just because of how much range it has, but if that fails, you can just warcry and get a new R2 that is actually weaker but may still catch people.
It isnt the best hammer, but it is a Great Club

I know which one you're talking about. I'll run it by and see how much faster it is. Thanks user!

I have the evangelist gloves, but I'm SL90. What level are you?

um axchtually user, respecs are currently free

Smough's here to reclaim his spot as #1 in the man-eating competition.

Put your signs down in front of the boss fog, PC, pass dsg, you know the drill.

Yes I am fat rolling. This is going to go horribly wrong.

Thanks for the kind words, user. I appreciate it.

I'll make sure to follow a proper guide next time. Speaking of which, do you have one?

You want 60-66 STR. It scales up to 99 with diminishing returns only between 41-50ish then it ramps up again. Also one of the best STR weapons requires 60 STR.

Thanks for reminding me the Smough x Aldritch """"fapfic""""

notched whip with frozen weapon and its WA is amazing in pvp, inflict bleed, frost and hit the WA and your oponent's stamina regen will be obliterated

>go to NG+ because I forgot a gesture the first time round
>forget it again

fucking Yeol just give me the damn gesture when I first speak to you damnit.

Thanks user but I'm looking for the Spiked Mace and the Hat. SL doesn't matter when you use a password btw!

Not sure if that was for me but I'm not using respecs for now.
Thanks anyway.

Wait
Yoel gives you a gesture? Other than the difnified bow you get from /u/a?

He gives you Beckon when you talk to him at the shrine after you accept his services.

>you can upgrade the storm ruler
how long has this been a thing for? is it any good as a weapon now?

han is a lagging faggot, have fought him multiple times. He has that aussie lag even though i think he is in kr/china

i know midir is a 'hidden' boss but jesus

>is it any good as a weapon now?
Unfortunately not.

Hey, look at that I got the spiked mace too. Still need it?

pls respond.

figured as much, at least it can kill yhorm faster now
r-right?

It's probably best to wait for a few weeks. DS3 had the DLC drop and another couple of patches on top, so none of the most popular CE tables are working correctly right now. And to make matters worse, the brony subhuman that hosts the CE website thought it'd be a good idea to delete something like ten years of tables from the forums to avoid personal liability so the scene has kind of fractured and fragmented.

DS3 will get an up to date and definitive table. People are already working on it, but if they put it out now it'd probably just be made invalid by the next huge balance patch. Just keep an eye on /dsg/ and jump on a reply if you see someone mention anything about a new table.

If you really want to use CE, refer to this for now. It has a few links in the first section that should point you in the right directions.

sign is down

What the fucking shit
Speedrunners never fail to impress me

451 AR at 40/40

Not terrible, but not great either.

>tfw I got clipped under there the first time I played and the first time I encountered that locust
>if I had decided to jump off into the abyss of death in the other direction I would've turned my first playthrough on its head pretty hard
Dodged a bullet there.

I do! I just alt tabbed into being summoned as a cop and met a friendly purple. We dicked around a bit till we found the host and then we fought while the host watched.
I died.
Currently on dilapidated bridge. Shall I ember up with the pass dsg? Anything I can get you?

Only Distortions autism can account for this

brigand twindaggers with frost weapon

So this... is the power... of the feast...

It's a lot like the KttE from DS2. Looks neat and isn't SUPER trash but at the same time isn't exactly competitive. Use it for style points. People will die if you hit them enough, just like any other sword.

The pass is dsg? And no, I don't need anything.

>Literally remove the one soap stone that was actually good for helping people through the level
Why would they do this? It makes no sense.

yeah, I've set up dsg as the pass, embering up now, feel free to drop the sign whenever user. Thanks again!

the small white soapstone didn't fit the lore or miyazaki's vision of the game

sign down, I'll be holding the mace

Thanks user, you're a godsend.

oh, and the sign is down right next to the bonfire

So it's true

Excuse me what the fuck

Fuck, we literally just entered as you put it down.

Smouldering Iron too OP, get fucked Aldrich.

>kill the Old Demon King (the last of the demons)
>but wait, there's more
>kill the Demon Prince (the last of the demons pt.2, but this time it's personal)
>get escorted by the bat wing demons right after
really kindles your bonfire

I don't see you user. Shall I drop my sign and you try to summon me?

Go ahead. Not sure why you don't see me, though. You should be standing right on top of it.

It would be better if they were crusting over and barely aerodynamic, or turned to dust after the escort.

Sign is down right in front of the bridge.
You're using "dsg" all lower case ye? Kinda weird that I don't see you.
You are on pc..right?

>when the feast hits you

yes and yes

>Can't get the armor of the Cathedral Knights in the Consumed King's Grove

the moment you passed through frampt's hole you entered the ringed city illusion. there are no lesser batwing transporters, only you sucking on your thumb in vegetable condition

>decide to try out caestus
>upgrade some, go punch the first greatshield knight on the way to ocerios
>backstab him
>spam L1
>he can't do anything at all
>shieldbreak, keep punching
>stunlock a giant knight to death with just punches
damn these things are pretty neat, how good are they as weapons generally?

>no blue lothric knight set

Nothing here. Could it be that SL difference is an issue after all?

Also, I already killed the Cursed Tree, if that makes a difference.
