What mbti are you and what kind of build do you run? Dex str int fait luck ? I am INTP and run INT+FAI and a little STR+DEX because I can never make up my mind so I'd rather be a jack of all trades

Who here thinks Ringed City is Londor but From kinda retconned the name / chose to not use it because autism?
So how long is he going to put off playing Ringed City, lads?
Angel Bell
forever

Jordan Brown
He'll play it after he does another playthough of DaS2.
Matthew Parker
Dark Souls 3 made me love feet.
Charles Barnes
No it's better. It gives you the feeling that Londor was just the proxy of the Snakes or the Pygmys itself becuase they had no other connection to the outside world. TL,Dr Londor are tryhards who imitated Pygmys

Get HP Get ADP (82/96/99 Agility breakpoints) Level DEX or STR whenever you see a weapon you think you might like (you only need to meet 50% of a weapons STR need if you 2 hand it)
Pyro scales off of INT + Faith so any magic build will end up with a high fire bonus, keep an eye out for pyromancies Faith scales off of Faith, adds lighting bonus which directly effects how much damage lightning infusion and lightning weapon buffs (both spells and resins) do Magic scales off of INT, directly effects how much damage sorceries, magic infusions and magic weapon buffs (again both spells and sorceries) do. INT also gives access to Enhanced infusion, which deals physical damage but scales off of INT meaning you wont have to invest into a physical damage stat to deal with elemental resistant enemies Dark scales off of INT or Faith whichever is LOWEST, it's meant to be the pure caster endgame option stat, since it by default grants you access to pyromancies, most sorceries and most miracles.
Pyro is generally useful and since it has 0 carry weight a good thing to have on hand INT is very hit or miss, most things are either fairly weak to it or fairly strong to it, you do get a very healthy pool of spells to choose from Faith is split in support and offensive types, offensive miracles have far fewer casts than sorceries/dark but deal good damage with very few enemies in the game being resistant to it, making it the support stat for melee builds, you buff yourself and your weapons and throw out the occasional ranged attack when the situation calls for it Dark is generally above average against most things but doesn't really excel at anything, it also gives you access to amazingly high damage weapons (dark infused crypt sword, veldstads hammer)
DS2 is a game about exploring use this info to just make an informed decision on your own, don't sweat the details because you can just respec with Soul Vessels (hell you get one right in majula)
Joshua Bailey
So he's just going to let his final impression of Souls be the frankly unimpressive Ashes of Ariandel DLC?
Fuck me, TRC actually had some good lore and bossfights actually worth a damn.
Y'know surprised he didn't play that much ds2 given how he supposedly liked it over ds1
Juan Thomas
see: You should focus on filling out your weak spots, starting with vigor, and adaptability.
Vigor is probably most important since you are going to die a lot to 1 hit attacks. Keep leveling that up until you aren't healing to full with estus.
Adaptability is very important in making you protected from dmage while rolling and use items (including estus) faster. You should keep going until agility is at least 92, which is probably ~15 ADP? Maybe less depending on your attunement.
Lower priority: Strength is necessary because eventually you will want to equip something other than a light weapon. Level this once you find something that looks good to use, but 10-12 strength is fine.
Vit should be leveled up until you can equip your best medium armor and a weapon and stay around 50% equip load or less.
Faith should reach 20, so that you can get the sunset staff from Felkin.
Attunement, endurance and intelligence are all good for now. Level the rest first before you keep leveling those, starting with attunement.
Jayden Flores
what to use with faith? sunlight sword?

120 is where people congregate for min-maxed meta builds focusing entirely on single pvp strategies without being practical for any amount of co-op or pve

Thank you! What's good gear though? I bought a hood from Straid but that's about it.
Sebastian Green
>des, ds1, ds3 protagonists have half of a moveset in the left hand >ds2 protag has full movesets in either hand >two handing doubles his str stat, where other protags add 50 percent of their str when two handing.
I figured it out lads. We don't have full movesets in the left hand because Bearer of the curse was ambidextrous.
Jace Clark
Wear whatever you like best. Elite Knight is my go-to in every game. Each time you kill a forlorn straid adds new armor to his shop fyi.
Xavier Cook
I've found the Northwarder Set in Eleum Loyce to be really well-rounded for being such a lightweight set
Camden Cooper
For weapons, try out everything that leningrast and macduff sells. Those are the basic weapons of each class, so when you find something you like that feels good to swing, start leveling up to use it.
Michael Moore

Parker Peterson
Fashion Souls it up until you run into gear that has special effects that you like, even the it's usually fairly minor so fashion takes priority. Spends souls at the armor merchant in Majula, it unlocks extra items for sale (elite knight and Alva being middle weight armor that look really great and have good stats) and will also start selling boss sets.

Look, I just want some closure on this circus. All he needs to do is a stream of Ringed City, not even YT videos if he doesn't want to. It's the last piece of Dark Souls content ever but it's the Crown jewel of it. Noone needs to get harmed here.
Jack Hall
kill a what now

Get over it dude. He wants monies from streaming other games, just let him be a E-celeb trasb elsewhere.

William Hernandez
Forlorns are NPC invaders that are added into Softs..
Joshua Wood
Forlorn is a fun friend in Scholar that will randomly invade you at any time, anywhere. Don't underestimate this guy, especially the ones with the scythe. As you continue killing them in random locations, Straid will start to sell their armor, and later their weapons.
Leo White
>there are people who actually have trouble with Crystal Sage
I just... I don't understand.
Justin Green
The average player is a shitter
Leo Nguyen
>he wants monies from streaming other games I accepted his rejection of Souls until he started streaming DS1 again. I'm taking it as a personal insult that he abandoned DS3 while continuing to play Dark Souls 1.
I guess none of the wishes of the people who supported him when he was doing DS3 mean anything to him.
Aiden Smith
I don't understand why you give a shit. Dude is a faggot, get over it. At the end of the day he's his own person and it's entirely within his right to be a faggot.
Alexander Flores
There has never been a playthrough where I didn't just run up to the crystal sage and spam attacks until he teleported over and over until he died. Dodging is practically optional. I'm not even sure that attack that makes crystals pop up DOES anything.
Angel Cox
So what's the princess dress of dark souls?
Xavier Roberts
some people just have sad lives and wish to involve themselves in others who, even when those are equally as stupid. Best to just ignore shit relating to that faggot.

Dude stop being a streamer fan, Christ. Honestly find someone else to waste money on, hell Lobosjr is better then him in every fucking way. And he has a job too, hell even he makes time and effort to help with charity.
Landon Allen
Fair enough then. I just find the autistic refusal to not do TRC when you're the figure best known for doing Dark Souls lore videos and your full time occupation is talking over video games. I will give it a rest and not discuss him again in this particular thread

Which miracles should I focus on having for a high faith character? Are the lightning spears worth it at all? What about the lightning arrow?
Juan Perez
>I just find the autistic refusal
How about your autistic refusal of letting it go, you sub-human?
Lightning Arrow, Med Heal, and a weapon buff if your weapon can be buffed. Other options are Lightning Stake, Sunlight Spear and Replenishment.
Asher Myers
Arrow worth it, Projected heal, sunlight spear, great lighting spear, stake for shitters, moonlight buff and lighting blade as well.
Kayden Garcia
??? I just said I will let go for this thread.
Ryder Morgan
My bad dude.
Jordan Myers
Sunlight Spear is essentially your most powerful ranged option. Lightning Arrow is your most annoying ranged option.
Great Heal is the most efficient healing spell per FP, Soothing Sunlight if you need to heal others in the middle of a fight.
Lightning Stake for melee range trading (be sure to poise cast it). Lightning Storm for melee range AoE.
WoG for being a dick on ledges.
Adam Baker
Let me, re-iterate.
People (humans, your race) are plenty.

Jordan Nelson
Stuck on darkeater, I refuse to summon. What's a good one-handed weapon that has an r1 that reaches vertically?
Landon Lee
I pretty much never see people using WotG in 3, is the damage low or is it slow or what? I'm assuming they nerfed it since it was pretty insane in DaS1. Also why do some low faith characters use force in duels? When is it worth using over an attack or roll? Only thing I can think of is casting it with a big strength weapon for a free hit if the cast is faster than the weapon swing.
Kayden Nguyen
What's your build? In general the basic Straight Sword or any fast weapon moveset generally reaches high enough for Midir.
WotG is really slow and the damage isn't worth how slow it is compared to say Sunlight Spear. Force is useful for forcing knockdowns and creating space or giving time to use another attack.
Oliver Bennett
I bet you're that guy who tries to spoil people who ask for spoiler free advice. There's something wrong with you.
Luke Johnson
Quality melee build, I'm 35 everything except in magic-related stuff
Luis Russell
I'd recommend perhaps a halberd than for range and vertical length, Splitleaf or Black Knight Glaive would be ideal for your build.
Owen Carter
What's the minimum FTH level I should have? 60? Is this only viable at SL120?
Logan Allen
Not at all, 100 builds are ok with this investment. But yes 60fth with either both or great boosting rings are needed for it.
Carter Miller
Wolf Knight's Greatsword, enjoy 20% extra damage and no need to buff it.
Liam Smith
I wasted the boss soul on the dumb farron greatsword fuck
Luke Bailey
I felt this way until I played a sorcerer; died a few times to crystal sage and almost died to deacons too I was investing way too much into int though and had base vig. Actually I'd guess a lot of people probably have extremely low vig early on which makes everything much harder. The game is a million times easier if you just invest in minimum offense stats and pump vig straight to ~27 as quick as possible. With 10 vig and min stats for a broadsword+1 I was doing basically chip damage and the crystal sage sometimes will not teleport if you don't do enough damage, one soul spear from behind would kill me so I found it was better to attack the copies first if they were close. I beat her on my first try at release though, she's crazy weak to basically any physical damage.
Luke Thompson
Are you on PC? If you want I can get the other sword with my sorc and drop it for you cuz she's not gonna need either.
Ryder Cox
Yeah I'm on PC, thank you, that would help me so much Where do you want to meet & what password?
Alexander Johnson
I don't break my promises. But I don't tend to make very big promises either. That said, if you buy a product with a one year warranty, most of the time that shit doesn't break immediately after the warranty expires,no?
Jaxon Jones
Wrong is subjective.
You run the risk of getting spoiled anywhere.
There's nothing wrong (subjective) with somebody not holding someone's hand in spoonfeeding.
Noah Robinson
Wait the sages are female? It thought they were male twins!!
Kevin Collins
Gonna make a hexer build in dark souls 2, any tips?
From what I know, hexes scale with int and fth so I should level those equally while also leveling attunement.
David Martin
Does killing the dogs in the water reserve lower your priority to get invaded for the pre-anor londo area? I'm seeing very few signs and I only got invaded once since I killed them. I was getting invaded nonstop before though.
Jonathan Campbell
I believe it's one male, one female
Adrian Green
Killing the area boss who resides in anor londo ends the ability to get invaded.
Cooper Martin
I mean, i'm not really expecting anybody to keep anything here so you can do whatever the hell you want.
Redundancy will eventually get you filtered. Whatever the fuck that may mean to you.
Robert White
You ARE that guy. I hope you know that you are so thoroughly disturbed that I can recognize you by your vitriol alone.
Caleb King
Put your red sign at the high wall bonfire? I can summon reds with a ded boss right? password dsg
Angel Roberts
Fire Longsword is a decent starting weapon for a hexer since I think Fire infused weapons also scale with INT+FTH.
Leo Walker
I hope so You post this shit way too offen and people who give a shit about streamer sub humans have serious life problems
Camden Mitchell
I actually never got the red sign soapstone, give me like 3 minutes
Josiah Campbell
no problem, only asked you to do it because i haven't either lol
Juan Cox
Just started DS2 SOTFS for the first time. Was suprised at how easy the castle/wood area was, then I got to Heide's tower of flame. How am I meant to get through all these big bastards and the boss? I have 3 estus and am perpetually hollowed, playing a no shield run.
