Next is the scythe, let's hope for a fun moveset

I found an item dupe glitch, but it requires overloading your inventory max weight (which is per item category), so at the moment you can only do it with weapons and armor.
If there was some consumable that the devs accidentally gave a weight value I think it would be possible to dupe any consumable as well. Likewise for rings, titanite, etc.
But I have no idea how I would check whether any such thing exists.

are you asking me to draw something or are you asking fro requests?

if so draw me mytha

no

>notice a shiny I never noticed before
>grab it

I didn't even know this weapon was in the game

How do I know the right moment to use neck swipe

gotta pump vit to avoid fatrolling with my fallen knight armor my katana my bow my dark sword and my shield of want
it's a nice flat 1000 hp tho

When the other guy doesn't know wtf he's doing and you're just messing with him

which one of you faggots is chef boyardee

How do you guys even make dex builds work during invasions?
Lothric knight sword is good and all but boring as shit, and aside from that dex barely has any good crowd control option or HA-based weapons, and burst damage is not really that good on top of it, compared to dark or str builds.

you get 16str so you can 2h LKGS
astora GS is also a HA option

Lmao2kat

lks + bks and bore them to death

That's the problem: if i want an ugs, i would just use a STR build.

It's also far below the threshold you need to survive two R1s from an ultra weapon.

What if instead of the retard spin halberd had poke r1 and shank r2

>survive two R1s from an ultra weapon.
no unbuffed ultra can do more than 500 damage per hit
and i doubt even buffed can go to that damage range
only crucifix in that territory

At higher SLs, sure. At SL50, 30 vig + Fap(+0) and shit absorption because muh fashion I can usually tank two borthammer hits with more than enough health to spare. I'd say 27 vig + Fap is fine up to SL60+6 if you know what you're doing and really can't afford to pump any more, after that it's definitely not enough and you might want to get at least a bit more.

>dex barely has any crowd control or HA weapons
what about these crowd controlling HA weapons
>if I wanted crowd control and HA I'd go STR
???

Ledo does.

Guys I just had the greatest idea
what if
just hear me out
what if a greathammer had a halberd speed WA?
what could possibly go wrong

did you manage to get hit with the slowest weapon class in the game user

give me some ideas to cosplay

jus b urslef

Are the twin daggers always mediocre in pvp or they get better as you upgrade them?

ur mum
>evangelist set

>tfw every invasion is me stomping or just me getting stomped

You're supposed to infuse and/or buff them. They do shit for damage by themselves, but adding 235 Magic damage to each individual hit will make them hurt like fuck, provided that you learn how to use Quickstep and punish properly.

They're pretty bad, I'd guess low sl with resin would work best.

Infuse them with bleed on a luck build.

Fuck me

I meant in pve

Why so many ugs users?

literally why bother, you may as well not even use them at that point.
Daggers do shit for damage and are for mobility's sake than anything

Infuse them with bleed on a luck build.

They're fucking daggers, of course they'll suck in PvE. If you want to dual-wield some fast DPS weapons then use Sellswords instead.

I'm trying to find a fun dex weapon to play through the game

Silver Knight
>swap dragonslayer bow to sharp winged spear for chasedowns
>use gold pine bundles
Maldron the Ass
>be an ass

Murakumo, Carthus CGS, Falchion, Corvian Greatknife
Twindaggers are perfectly fine. Use them if you like them.

It's just good conduct to name the game you're playing. Can't go wrong with Berserk characters other than Guts.

>Murakumo, Carthus CGS
too far into the game, but yeah once I get them I'll use them because I love the looks
>Falchion
boring moveset
>Corvian Greatknife
boring moveset

Why is dex so unsatisfying? Killing things with str feels good, but with dex weapons it feels like I'm killing hitboxes

they're shit but I like the Greatscythe movesets

Carthus CGS isn't all that late, just rush to watchers and skip Cotd, and farm it in Carthus
Falchion has a pretty interesting moveset compared to other curved swords desu
Maybe try Hollowslayer, it's pretty nice too
That being said I'm a straightsword fag, so I like my simple basic movesets

jesus

lots of options there user but some may be considered better as quality.
Right now I'm playing as a sl 50 dex build, Murakumo, Hollowslayer, Shotel, Uchigatana, Ricards is pretty fun if you like rapiers personally

You have my attention

>have to use other weapons to cosplay an in-game enemy whose real weapons were available in a previous game
no, i don't rike it

robes, sandals, no gauntlets or helmet

long hair, beard

fist/miracles only

the fuck did you just say you little shit

I just wish there wasn't a dex weapon that feel like I'm just wacking at my opponent. I want to give dex a fair chance but so far very boring weapons. I might just grab the AGS.

You're always wacking at your opponent in dark souls, define what you mean and maybe we can suggest a weapon for you.

I mean if you want to send them flying and stomp them down only STR is going to do that for you

I really don't know how to put it in words but when I hit an enemy with a great weapon it feels good, like I'm actually hitting something. When I'm using dex weapons it feels so mechanical like I'm just hitting a box which takes damage when I press R1.

It doesn't make sense.

>tfw Dark AGS+10 on my pyromancer

keh heh heh

Try the Murakumo. I picked it up and I've turned a strength build into an eastern knight cosplay because of it solely.

try curved greatswords, harald's is a good choice

I'll try those when I get to them. Now I'm trying to drop a corvian scythe maybe it feels good

I'm not gay but those pictures Daftpatriot drew of Ornstein "slaying" dragons made me horny as hell.

More like this? Never enough yorshka

thanks for the fap material user

I want to like Yorkshire, but her stick arms just ruin it for me.

If you have a spacing fetish then Corvian is definitely up your alley, Personally I don't like it and if i'm not mistaken, it's best dark infused.

rule34.paheal.net/post/list/Company_Captain_Yorshka/1

I try to look past the stick arms and focus on how unique her dragon (?) parts are and imagine what they’d feel like
>and how much I could bully her over them

The melee attack of the crystal sages is actually its most deadly attack

I've probably fought him dozens of times at this point and I learned like two days ago that you could parry that attack.

are you fucking kidding me

all bosses should be un-parriable

Not him, but I usually just stagger him out of it.

rule34.paheal.net/post/view/2088635

hmmm

is there anything more cringe than getting summoned to defend aldrich and one of your aldrich faithful comrades is one of those fags who run around gesturing and being friendly instead of fighting
can these people remove their pins

I've only seen him do it a handful of times. I normally slap his shit really quick.

Yes
This is a dex weapon that feels good. Whoever told me about it, thanks. I'll this thing until I get the Kumo. The bleed proc is a bit of a set off but I can just buy a bunch of moss.

only human sized bosses sho

*only human sized bosses should be parriable

Haha I love R1 mashing being the only strat with bosses haha.
Fuck you. Parrying bosses is a good way to introduce a risk vs reward element to the fights that would otherwise consist of the oh so exciting "roll through attack and press r1" like 50 times.

Has anyone ever mapped out the safe path to the blue slab? I got to it once, many playthroughs ago.

just get the one in the dlc

There's a total of four bosses in the game that can be parried, and two are the same boss.

There's a map on some Japanese site. But otherwise, just use Prism Stones.

>dlc not on sale

fucking blunder

lotta seed usage going on in the archives
are these hosts fucking birds or something

Scratch that, five. Forgot about Friede.

>risk
they're all easy to parry

I still don't fucking know how to parry Sully desu
Also parrying Gundyr isn't hard but fuck up once and you're as good as dead

Buy the Deluxe Edition, goy.
