/dsg/ - Demon's/Dark Souls General

Just parry his charge during the second phase.

It's always a thing.

Give me a build for ng+ /dsg/
I went for 40/40 on my my first playthrough

Anyone on PS3 around SL20 have a bunch of Demon Titanite they don't need? I don't have a USB to CE.

yes

also get dspw, and dscm

ITT we create the best Dark Souls game using traits from each game.

DKS2 Matchmaking and covenants minus soul memory.
DKS3 Gameplay
DKS1 Build viability and level design.

I SHALL PARTAKE

raw strength

Just be careful on a couple of ladders if you're gonna run it at 60fps. Some say setting it to 59 helps

>DKS1 Build viability
So, hardly any?

>das1
>build viability

>not dumping everything into stam and being able to wear anything
>they like having to go into two separate stats for stam and equip load

Next time I die, I'll just call it a night.

It's fine bud, I just wanted to play. Not in a hurry really.

tips for beating 4kings as a sorcerer 42 int?
I tried buying as much soul spear charges as I could but I can't dps them down fast enough and get overwhelmed

DS1 infusions and matchmaking
DS2 bosses and world design
DS3 level design and progression
DeS healing system and weapon variety

...

DaS2** Build Viability
Fixed.

and your idea of build viability in a game is that putting all your points into one stat is the only necessary thing to built towards?

Are you wearing crown of dusk and bellowing dragoncrest ring?

I can't wear bellowing, I have ring of favor in the other slot :-(

I know it's a meme here but I unironically think 4kangz is a great boss fight.

Most Wrong Post Ever Discovered, Experts Baffled

I agree tbqh. Only """issue""" is the necessity of the ring, when you only have two slots. If it was in DaS2 or 3 where there are 4 slots it'd be absolutely fine.

Jesus Christ I can't believe I actually got hit by his grab.

DeS story and atmosphere
DaS1 area connectivity
DaS2 area variety
DaS3 and BB graphics
DaS2 casting and stat mechanics
DaS3 weapon upgrading and infusing, DaS2 buffing (also unlimited Slabs)
DaS2, DaS3 and BB replayability (Bonfire Ascetics and new enemies/mechanics in NG+, apply Spears mechanic of reviving area boss to every boss in the game, procedurally generated dungeons)
DaS2 item usage and healing mechanics (slow enough to punish, but also severely limit Lifegem stacking)
DaS2 invasion mechanics (killing bosses doesn't turn off area invasions)
DaS3 matchmaking restrictions
DaS3 PvP accessibility (full orbs and signs available from the outset)
DaS2 covenants
DaS2 and DaS3 weapon moveset variety (full power-stancing, R2 charging, WAs)
DaS2 backstabbing mechanics and stamina recovery mechanics (apply this also to roll recovery frames)
DaS3 hyperarmor combined with DaS2 semi-poise

We did it. Somehow.
Spears?

I usually don't summon for Spears but fuck it, this is my support build so I should have some lads to support.

I'll get my sign right outside the Church

Please.

This list is pretty good but one thing is missing, DKS2 DLC. Ringed City is great but it comes paired with the Asses of Ariandel

Sounds good.

Which game/platform are you guys on

holy shit the claws are cool

i infused them with sharp at +8 to scale with dex and wew so fun

Bloodborne station 4

PS4. I'm going to depart when we're done with the Spears, if you want to join.

I would but I'm on japanese BB

That was fun lads

Thanks for the ride, you slut. I'm signing off now, good luck with Santa.

Rate your Soulsborne

Thanks for the help lads

The nostalgia is real, lads. Going with STR this time around.

Are you doing Gael?

I like them all though.

Sure am, afterwards I'll do post-pontiff.

In all my runs on DaS1, I had no idea the sirens could shoot lightning.

post your best obscure japanese dark souls vids lads

Been a while since I've fought him, gonna have to get used to his moveset.

All good mate, he's the hardest boss in my opinion.

Apparently you aren't the only one that needs to learn his moveset. That Warpick is doing some nasty damage for you though, goddamn.

Witness the weirdest taste in this world.

Why BB that low? Genuinely curious.

Zweihander OP.

Kek, we're getting rekt

>the absolute state of our tender little buttholes right now

4kids at SL20 is hard for me, jeez.

Demons Souls build variety and breakability.
Dark Souls 1 world design, art design, and story
Dark Souls 2 atmosphere
Dark Souls 3 graphical fidelity

DaS2
DaS3/DaS1
DeS
I hate none of them though.
They are really good to me. I enjoy them somehow.

being able to stagger the taurus demon with the zwei was so satisfying

I love them all, but i didnt like how BB handled it's setting and feel a little too "polished" for me, i know it sounds silly, but i prefer the more experimental nature of DeS.

Nice strategy. Outside Pontiff next?

...

is sharp +10 uchigatana with 40 dex better than just standard +10 uchi? I assume yes

Sharp 80 nigga

Yeah mate, that 3rd phase worked out way better than I thought it would. Saw you used quite a bit of estus so I decided to switch gears and keep you healthy while you did the damage with that nasty pickaxe.

what

Yeah I was quite thirsty during the fight. Where to next?

It is, but if you're doing full Dex, you should really be hitting 80

I always go STR any time I play Dark Souls and I want to mix it up.

I thought about doing a ronin cosplay. I'd only using katanas, two-handed of course, and learning to parry with the weapon art.

y/n

Go to 80 Dex.
Sharp Scaling continues through til 75-80ish

It's true, dex scaling was buffed up to go all the way to motherfucking 80 before returns piddle out for good. 50-60 is nothing but shit ramps up at 70+

You can get the Uchi quite early so go for it

Post pontiff then either Irithyll dungeon or Dancer, your choice. Also would you have any recommendations for a buffable Greatsword on a 60 Faith build? I feel like Drakeblood Greatsword isn't cutting it.

We can get Irythil Dungeon out of the way first. I would say either the Flamberge or the Bastard sword personally.

Dungeon it is. We'll head to Archdragon after I light the Profaned Capital bonfire.

ah shit wtf

I beat soul of cinder and then interacted with the bonfire and the game ended? ;-;

nooooooo I know I didn't finish all the content

You can choose to stay in your current playthrough

NG+ can be started at will from Firelink. You can go back and do all that shit before moving on.

Should I just head to Archdragon or do you wanna fight Yhorm?

Archdragon, Yhorm is a chore and wasted potential. Honestly thinking of trying it without Storm Ruler.

Sign is by that tree when you spawn in unless you want it at the bonfire

Do it, way better.

I'll attempt it but I'm on NG+3 On this character, plus I have a terrible habit of doing pic related.

Why does Dark Souls 2 feel like I'm getting swarmed more and more by enemies when compared to Dark Souls?

It feels like entire swarms of mobs fucking aggro on you by hitting one of them, even if I'm a Sorcerer using Soul Arrows on enemies.

i bought the dark souls 3 season pass but the files to download and install are nowhere to be found?....

i'm on ps4 btw

On-disc DLC.

Oof that Ricard's is nasty

That was disgusting

If I'm running 60 FTH, will I get more damage out of a Lightning Infusion or Lightning/Darkmoon blade buffing?

I don't suppose anyone on PC has time to spare for some muling? I'm trying to get some TRC and various other gear onto a new character, including +3 rings. Shit includes a couple sets, a half-dozen weapons and a dozen or so rings.
