Participants will be matched up with others who sign-up and fight for the claim to be /dsg/'s champion on May 19th, 5pm PST. The winner and runner-ups will receive prizes including Steam games and being better than everyone else.
For the sake of organization either your Steam ID or a Discord ID will be needed to sign-up. If using only one Steam IDs will be organized via that channel and Discord users can join the accompanying server in the link above to ensure we don't have last minute drop-outs with no explanation.
RULES: -There will be two teams: Peasantry and Nobility. Once you’ve made the choice you can’t go back. Both teams have a certain list of approved weapons you can check on the sign-up sheet. Not following the rules results in a disqualification (and public shaming) -Since this is a low level tournament a maximum Soul Level of 80 is allowed. Someone with CE open will be monitoring all players to make sure this rule and others aren't broken. -The starting location will be High Wall, followed by Undead Settlement and ending at Lothric Castle. -Fights are best of 3 -Each fight is 2 minutes long, the one with the most % health left at the end will win if both are alive. -Only two Ashen Estus sips per fight, any more and your win will not count, initiating a rematch. Do this twice and you are disqualified -All Regen items and spells are banned to disincentive passive shittery. This includes Sun Princess Ring, spells like Bountiful Sunlight, and anything infused with Blessed. -Normal FC rules still apply such as no healing items. Fight rotation will be determined once brackets are set. -Requirements to join: Discord and/or Steam ID for organization purposes If people don't respond a week prior to the tournament and they've signed up, they're disqualified
Carson Clark
There's not really any equivalent since Faith fucking sucks after all the nerfs. Best you can do is farm Heide weapons early on, but to my knowledge the only way to get early Boltstones is via trading with Smooth and Silky, or farming the Basilisk after Rosabeth.
You'll still want Southern Ritual +2 and Clear Bluestone +2 though.
Thomas Nelson
What /dsg's favorite area in dark souls 3?
>Mines archdragon peak, place was so beautiful.
Asher Barnes
What is the highest damage strength weapon?
Brody Cruz
>TFW no qtpie Gwynd GF ;__________________________;
Jaxson Taylor
>tfw shift starts at exactly 5 P.M
Joseph Wilson
As far as combos go, splitleaf
though beats me on AR, maybe the greatsword
Cameron Robinson
yhorms
Oliver Rogers
The Ringed City easily.
In the original game I'd say Irithyll.
Jaxon Russell
is this okay?
Landon Hill
why do you have 2 buffs?
Isaiah Adams
How bad did SSS get fucked?
Landon Collins
At that level you should have 60 FAI.
Eli Gutierrez
for fun, someitmes you wanna be SHINY and others you wanna be DARK.
yeah but i wanna be a good physical damage dealer too
Colton Gonzalez
Take the plunge, go all the way to 60 faith, and get sunlight spear.
Easton Myers
with 40fth and no fth rings, that's all you'll be.
Carson Baker
>he doesn't know about SSS and blessed greatswords
Colton Murphy
good level to get a lot of blue summons?
Daniel Baker
i have the SSS equiped, and the only greatsword i like is the black knight one that basically wants to be left alone, no buffs allowed.
Dylan Brooks
>host keeps spamming black knight glaive spinny attack >it can't be parried >it has extremely long range so you can't get close >even if you did it's a 360 degree sweep
Evan Diaz
>almost killed some faggot in Havel's set >the host throws some knives at me and gets me killed
This is why I stopped giving a shit about "honor" n invasions, i will sip my fucking estus and take advantage of your shitty gestures just to get my damn ember and ruin your day
Charles Hall
What is a shield. What is a crossbow or any other ranged option.
Easton Wright
You don't need dex and strength to hit hard with the SSS.
Jaxson James
still annoying
Camden Williams
Does /dsg/ hate capes on armor?
Nicholas Ross
I just don't like capes, they look tacky. It's so fucking stupid that they don't give you the option to remove them.
Jaxson Anderson
nope, I use the Undead Legion armor because it has the longest cape.
Luis Howard
What shield should I pair with a longsword for pvp? I like BKS but not being able to parry is sort of annoying, though getting the guardbreak out a second faster is also nice.
Landon Smith
I want a clean looking cape, the tatty ruined shit that most armor has
Dylan Collins
Is DS2 tolerable if I max out the iframes stat?
Cooper Barnes
god no
Lincoln Hall
What's the best bleed weapon? Currently on a Blood Bandit's Knife and it's really good but I feel like there must be something better.
Was looking at Hollow Warden Twinblades but they seem to need carthus rouge.
Daniel Walker
If we're talking aesthetics only:
DaS1: Ash Lake DaS2: Shrine of Amana DaS3: Midir's arena
Angel Foster
This is mostly for PVE btw,
Juan Martinez
Irithyll. Great looking area and good layout.
Gavin Sullivan
lothric knight
lightning infusion optional but it gives you near invincibility to lightning blade at the cost of a little stability
Elijah Young
Can we all agree dark sun phantoms are overall the most skilled in pvp?
Kayden Morgan
it lost about 100 AR.
Matthew Brown
full pic where
Nathan Sanders
in terms of gameplay, cathedral of the deep. i like areas that loop around to shortcuts back to a singular bonfire. great area for invasions too.
for pure visuals, irithyll, i guess. preferably viewed from the catacomb exit because once youre inside you realize its just a boring corridor
Brandon James
>looking for summons outside a boss room >always summon the thiccest/goofiest looking fucker since they end up being the best ones
Luke Bell
What's so great about Splitleaf? Seems like just another halberd with a cool weapon art.
Sebastian Ward
pure str weapon with a 1shot combo
Christian Hall
Nothing. It's a meme. No one's gonna use it once the novelty wears off
Levi Evans
Any PS4 lads need help with anything or want to do some 2v2 or 3v3 arena?
Hudson Parker
DS3 was my first DS game, why was that Wood Grain ring so hated? All it does is reduce weapon degradation, that's so useless.
Charles Flores
it was DS1's bloodring
James Nelson
It was fine, don't believe the haters
*cartwheels away*
Ryder Butler
What build is this? I want to try the dragon face shield.
Kayden Hill
DaS3's Wood Grain Ring = DaS1's East Wood Grain Ring DaS3's Carthus Bloodring, but without the damage penalty = DaS1's Dark Wood Grain Ring
Do better research next time, friend.
Jose Bailey
It changed your rolling action which increased I-frames. Tank builds hated it because they themselves don't know how to play properly.
Jaxon Ward
And what is it?
Henry Roberts
r1 l2 r1/r2
Michael Roberts
can i kill this guy in the cave in the first dlc? he's just so fucking ugly and looks like he deserves it.
Elijah Perez
I have played like 20% of DS3 because I haven't really gotten around to it, but I can tell you that there are some weapons and eat their durability for special attacks instead of heavy attacks and that lets you use them a lot more. It probably has something to do with that.
Jaxon Hall
want vertebra shackles? Can you help with that?
Jacob Rodriguez
imagine if they copy pasted him around ariandel partake-style, and "find a sweetly rotting bed to lie upon" became a meme
Nathaniel Campbell
No leave him alone
Gavin King
>I have played like 20% of DS3 why even bother posting
Justin Gomez
That's my husband please leave him alone
Benjamin Miller
All this time i feel like a fool for playing with keyboard.
Elijah Price
Can't trade covenant items
Parker Moore
Lucifer said that the shield is shit, and he's right.
Christopher Hernandez
The l2 stunlocks? That's silly.
Justin Powell
As always.
Jose Cook
i'm gonna do it guys, i'm sorry. he just keeps fucking looking at me.
Carson Adams
I think it works if you summon a mound-maker and let him kill you. But why would you let someone kill you over and over. I want them to finalize my Hodrick cosplay.
Benjamin Lee
the catch is its range is shit. if you're not right next to them after the first r1, youll whiff it
Nicholas Long
Suck my dick dude
Aaron Morgan
Its not much of a "catch" since you can just do the regular r1-r1 anyway
Jordan Jones
all he gave were souls, what a fucking waste.
Leo Davis
r1r1 wont do 1200+ damage and if you misjudge it youll most likely get punished and clapped at
Aiden Scott
i know oro, dreaded tumblr, and an autistic spy but literally who are the other 3
Anthony Young
far left is peeve peeverson pretty sure
Dylan Barnes
>an autistic spy it's the fedora, right? that's him?
Logan Morris
which one is oro?
Camden Torres
second left
Angel Wright
hes never seen without it 2nd from left
Elijah Williams
>good layout Mate. It's literally a single corridor, mate. You can't be serious, mate. It's pretty, but... mate.
Jaxson Hill
>the thiccest/goofiest looking fucker since they end up being the best ones My experience is literally the exact opposite of this. The LOLSORANDOM looking ones, the naked-with-a-dagger ones, the obvious memes... they're all utter, utter shit if not actively trying to sabotage your fight.
Ethan Cruz
I expected Oro to be a big guy
Oliver Lewis
i always thought hed look like a young todd howard
Caleb Nelson
Funny, he looks exactly how I imagined.
Jacob Morales
For you.
Landon Watson
if i removed the HULLO would he die?
Ethan Price
no they have the least experience also they usually have a number advantage
this is fact and can't be argued
Blake Brown
Go back to /tv/
Cooper Campbell
T R Y L O N G F I N G E R
Justin Powell
Can someone put the appropriate names to these faces? I assume they're Soulstubers.
