/dsg/ - Demon's/Dark Souls General

you have a morning star, she has a head.
You know what to do.

Give her a bowl of eggs

I did that once, I forgot the exact trigger to get the body to ragdoll like that though. I think I just riposted her next to the wall, walked off somewhere and then the ragdoll reset into the wall when I came back.

Still, B Team knew what the fuck they were doing with these enemies.

Her head stuck in the wall, dude.

Stop playing DS2

hold her hand

Perfect, this is the kind of quality posting I expect on Veeky Forums; irregardless of the topic or context. Absolutely perfect.

wut?

Cant wait for the next fucking souls game HELP ME LORD

Apparently some people think that Cuculus = Cornyx who willed his phantom to appear as a young woman instead of an old man, based on his dialogue regarding the Quelana Tome.

>wishes he was a woman
>female npc summon with exactly the same gear
there's something going on

someone can't handle the fucking bantz
time to go hug your sirris bodypillow user

Why did I buy this game again?

What if we wen't back to wands instead of these ugly staves.

because it's fun to cuck blueberries out of their ears

this

>carry six staves on you
>can now have access to an assload of spells for free
What could possibly go wrong?

>PvP is the most awful in the entire series

>fine netcoding unlike 2
>not a backstab contest like 1

DS3 pvp, putting hackers, laggy sessions and imbalances aside, is actually good.
Clearing a 1v4 as an invader is more fun than anything I've done in any other game ever.
+sick visuals imo

>carry six weapons on you
>can now have access to an assload of movesets for free

There is no next game. All is dust and ash.
Hope you enjoy whatever Code Vein is, and Nioh is on Steam now.

Code Vein looks cool, honestly

Ashen estus should be completely separate for invasions.
if you're invading, you should've had your regular estus limit plus the remainder of your unused estus as Ashtus.
and have it so killing someone gives two ashtus or 1 estus and ash

I don't get why ashes estus exist... couldn't normal estus heal life and fp at the same time?

Hey, can someone who has it post a pic of the Undead Legion Set, but with the Faraam helm?

neck seam

fuck that, if you're a mage; you don't want to waste your estus for some spells.
that's even more retarded than stacking multiple copies of a spell for more casts.

fuck. thanks. how about with the chainmail hat/coif/whatever it's called?

Will Code Vein have invasions? Or is it co-op only like all the other souls clones that shouldn't exist?

I wouldn't know, I never played as a mage.
Was the limited cast system so bad? It seemed to work just fine

gives me conniptions

>>fine netcoding unlike 2
>chainaxe.webm
Nigga your PvE don't even have good netcode.

crap. is there any hat that looks decent with it? the undead legion hat is retarded

Chain coif looks perfect, but you need a good face.

cool, thanks. I think I have an ok face.

Pretty sure he meant you can already see that on Hawkwood, user

Just look at what's his name crestfallen
It looks good but if you have a decent looking faced, which is unlikely.

no, i actually means conniptions man wears that getup, looks pretty decent

>hear the Great Belfry ringing nonstop
>nobody summoning me

posting face just cause

thanks for all the help

Silver mask maybe? It has a very unnoticeable neck seam up close. Pic form my 1st playthrough

? people still play ds3?

lmfao

>Was the limited cast system so bad? It seemed to work just fine
It was bad in the sense that when you ran out of casts, you were simply a worse melee character. It's pretty similarly bad with FP now, since FP has no natural regeneration. As a caster invader, you have to be really picky about casting and I usually run around with 2 simple weapons (caestus or parry dagger) to recharge when needed. FP just needs natural regeneration, and attunement should boost the regeneration.

Or have ashen estus not split as a phantom

>tfw not in DaS3

Jesus casters are fucking babies.
FP is already basically infinite with ashen estus I've literally never seen a caster run out of FP.

They should make mana reg similar to endurance, probably slower and add a stat which determines how much max mana you can have (and spells should eat different amount of IT).
This would make casters actually interesting to Play.

>casters were one shot machines in DaS1 and the strongest build
>complain about magic being weak
>casters were still one shot machines, but now with a shitload of options
>complain about magic being weak
>casters are sometimes one shot machines, but now with lots of options, good zoning, good chipping, variety, strong and viable fast buffs, with even option for poise while casting and fear infinite casting with FP+Ashen
>complain about magic being weak

This why I refuse to help caster hosts and always aim for the caster if I'm an invader, even if I'm also an invader.
Caster are fucking crybabies that are never satisfied. STRbabies are in the rockbottom of meta since DeS and they don't cry half as much.

newfaggot here
why do the 3 last lord of cinders feel easy compared to the other side-kick bosses like Pontiff Sulyvahn and Dragonslayer Armour

...

Because difficulty is subjective to both your opinion and gear, but also if you only played once you're bound to get lucky or unlucky with some RNG during bosses.

>tfw ds3 has only 2 good bosses including the dlc

I didn't know ashen estus refilled itself
You have to sacrifice estus for ashtus and each fp bar doesn't allow as many casts as the same amount of att did in other games.

...

i seriously doubt this, me and siegward staggered yhorm to death. there wasn't that much of a fight
aldrich posed some difficulty but in that sense i found the crystal sage harder than him (maybe because i was too fresh back than, but they both felt like they needed some running action, and it's much easier to run from aldrich's attacks than the crystal sage)
the twin princes i managed to do in only 2 times, the elder prince is easier to hug around his sides and stab him than the fucking knights infront of his castle. they were fucking easy compared to champion gundyr and dancer, i got stuck on those bosses for a fucking age

jesus fuck invasions are bland now
>host with greatsword
>host with ss + shield
>host with gs
>host with UGS
i have yet to see anyone who isn't playing with heavy armor and a sword in 3 hours of invading, what the fuck happened

>Warmth
>25 Faith requirement
>takes up 2 slots
>costs 50 FP to cast

Well I can kill both the dancer and gundyr easily with underleveled equipment. The dancer just stays there taking your hits and gundyr can be parried blindfolded.

Difficulty is subjective.

LETS JUST STOP COMPLETELY OBLITERATING PVE WITH MY OVERLEVELED PASSWORD PHANTOMS AND RUN ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE BONFIRE

at least before, I seen some variety in invasions.
2 months ago, i done a DF run and had a bunch of people invade me, including a pure-faith archer, a Melee Milwood Archer and whips.
now? just Greatswords and Straight swords.
Fuck at this point I may as well just make a whip build or something; just to get away from the greatsword and straight sword spam

What are you playing with?

Whips are pretty fun. I'm making a Castlevania themed character to mess around with in Cathedral.

How do I kill Old Demon King in time to save Cute Cuculus with a pyro build? Boulder? That does enough damage? Maybe call what's his name with the FUGS?

I was playing with an ultra great hammer, caestus and a spear

just camp under his legs and spam attack. u win

ds3 pve is a total farce

>network coding
>singleplayer
nigga you dumb

>b-but it's the most efficient heal
it overheals anyone but 99vig+fap3+life3 hosts and using it in battle (to get healed, get hit and get healed again) is stupid because the enemy gets healed too

but attack with what

b-but its fun

>>fine netcoding
>ss phantom range outta the ass

You know what to do.

>tfw lengua pero agujero

>summon someone because I'm not dealing with this NPC escort bullshit
>he can't pass the fog
>"fuck it I'm going to boulder him to death"
>it actually works pretty well
>this happens

FUCK
At least he didn't die so I can try again.

Speak American.

Then you've never seen a caster outside of a victory montage video.

Consider this; a sorcerer in ds1 and 2 started with 30 casts of soul arrow. A sorcerer in 3, on the other hand, has can shoot 17 arrows before running dry. A ds1 sorcerer can quickly get more copies of the spell and be running around with 60 arrows before he even hits the burg. Ds2 sorcerers have a similar deal. A ds3 sorcerer, on the other hand, gets only a single extra arrow at best with every level in atunement; he'll be lucky to be running around with 20 shots in high wall.
Keep in mind this is assuming he's only casting the basic soul arrow. If a ds1 or 2 sorcerer wants other spells, he just needs the slots, same as in 3, but in a ds3 sorcerer has his spells all drawing from this very limited resource.

>but he's got ashen estus!
A swig of unupgraded ashen estus refills 80 fp, enough for 11 more arrows. So yes, he could get up to 60 arrows, 61 in fact, if he made ALL of his initial healing items into ashen estus, and even THEN he'd still have less if he ever uses other spells or weapon arts.

This pattern continues throughout the game. A caster can only match the number of spells previous iterations of mages had if he makes enormous sacrifices in his ability to heal. They never even come close to infinite casts, at least no more than previous games did.
And for the record, Ds2 had spell restoration items anyway, so if you want to bitch about casters having to many spells then you're an entire game too late.

are you trying to get Corynx set? if you're on PC i can give you it

Wait, do you get something from Cuckulus if you kill Old Semen King without her dying!

Thanks man. I did it. Just needed more def to don't die in 2 hits.

Her whip and her set.

Do people unironically believe ds3 is a good game?
This is a new level of bad taste

I will never, ever forgive them for what they did to Warmth. Ever.
Never forget this shit.

>even aggressive against me, Sieg still saved Greirat

well that's something
I hope he isn't aggressive in his cell so I don't lose the slab

more like cuckulus lmao

add toxic mist/storyteller's staff to the mix or pestilent mist if you can

You should have waited!

It is, it just doesn't have the same replay value like the other games. Bloodborne has a similar problem

>prebuff warmth
>stats and upgrade level for a spell that doesn't scale
unironically kys

>not pardoning your ass
Hmm....Mmm
