PURGE FILTH

Thanks for the help with simon, meant to wave not do the edgy gesture.

Hosting a spelunk. First reply rolls for luck:

>1-3: Ihyll
>4-6: Loran
>7-9: Isz
>0: Hintertomb

Anytime

Pthu

Crush vermin.

Yea I feel the same way. The boom hammer and tonitus feels like such wasted potential. A pity cause the boom hammer looks really cool.

Congratulations, you won an Isz instead.

>glyph: 24psivdg
>pass: purge ayy

Pass is actually purgeayy, no space.

Ringing. First spelunk so be patient I have autism.

It's ok, as long as you don't kill the bell maidens (the ones that summon invaders, not spiders/meth-heads). Just bullying them a little is fine though, if not encouraged.

c-can I come?

>Ded immediately
Right, paying attention is a virtue.

Story Ebby? Ringing by fog. Pass: bbg

I'll wait for a second person for a minute or two.

FUCKING meth-heads...

I had two people in here but I've died so try your luck with either bell.

if anyone is around from the earlier abandoned Isz Spelunk or if anyone just wants to explore this 3rd floor with me, im back
pass is shanoa
glyph is cwuq3xsb
i'll ring at the first lamp

Thanks Felina and Hibiki!

the covenant npcs are cool as h*ck, but would the covenants themselves be better if they had some more insentive to them?

yes
but lets be honest, covenants have pretty much never been good in souls games
at best they've had a 'turn in x for item' incentive.
some of the stuff like ringing into coop but them being opposite faction so it being an invasion is cool though.

but lets be honest too, FROM clearly showed they have no idea what they're doing with pvp with the abortion that was DaS3

dark souls 3 pvp is the best in the series tbqhfamily. I would link you a saintriot video but you probably already made your mind. it's all subjective anyway

Layer One Report
>get invaded instantly
>die equally fast like a trio of chucklefucks thanks also to pthu army

Never saw watchers in that type of room, neat.

Sorry for cucking

>Walk Backwards Souls 3
>Best PvP

Someone talk me into/out of buying Monster Hunter

>>Walk Backwards Souls 3
what are you implying? is that a duelfag thing?

Buy EU goty edition to see cut content boss healthbars instead

don't buy it because buy it, I'm probably gonna get it myself

Already bought it

Walking backwards is near unpunishable, whether it's duels or invasions- especially if it's invasions, when they have a summon to get between the two of you. Estus is also basically free to drink, and with the Dried Finger allowing an additional summon, actually trying to invade is, most of the time, a death wish.
That said, it can still be fun. I've been waiting for Spear summons lately and having a blast. Caestus running L1 a best.

>Dark Souls 3 PvP is the best in the series
>Seed of a Tree of Giants
>3 Phantoms + Host
>Everyone can estus, but phantoms get half

>Said weapons are basically 'press L1 to siqqq plays!!!1' and remove all the skill of learning a weapons moveset, which moves in which situations (See, followers Sabre, RKPGS, Splitleaf Greatsword) which all lead to oneshot non toggle breakable combos if you get hit by the first hit

thats just off the top of my head too. Invasions were absolutely trash, Darkmoons barely worked and required a community workaround (despite this being the second time they've tried it, it didnt work before either)
The near impossibility of invading succesfully made invasions revolve around a meta of - Hornet + Parry or Buff+Beyblade to even remotely have a chance
Game was straight trash. There was a reason that less than 6 months in nearly all pvp was duels at Pontiff arena

Layer Two Reppo
>Jagermeister gets cucked back
>insta-invaded again, Hibbo plays it sneaky(er) this time
>found him playing dress up with a cuckblood, purged both accordingly
>find actually pretty decent cursed arcane gem for a smol chest
>find utter trash gem in bigg chest
>get lost AGAIN, main area is pretty huge and it's connected to a bonus area
>plus I wanted to jump in the hole
>boss was succ boi slim

It's fine, man. You're welcome to try again layer 3.

>>Seed of a Tree of Giants
got nerfed to 20 seconds, really just a tool to punish overly passive invaders now
Phantoms + Host
3 phantoms = backup red buddy
>>Everyone can estus, but phantoms get half
yeah, the whites, yellows and blues get half too. they also have reduced hp so they're basically walking estus vendors (you get estus for killing enemies)
>>Introduction of anime tier combo weapons, pretty much exclusively in the DLC
that's a you thing tbqh
>pretty much pay2win in PvP
if you like dark souls 3 enough to pvp in it you probably already own the dlc anyway but that's also a non-argument because
>muh meta
p much everything is viable
>>Said weapons are basically 'press L1 to siqqq plays!!!1' and remove all the skill of learning a weapons moveset, which moves in which situations (See, followers Sabre, RKPGS, Splitleaf Greatsword) which all lead to oneshot non toggle breakable combos if you get hit by the first hit
that only really applies to slgs and it's only if you're a vigorlet
>>Cheapest rolls of any souls game, coupled with the highest invincibility rolls of any souls game - can constantly play runaway/defensive and let your phantoms do all the work for you and just escape to heal
so, back up and use your tools to get them to play into mobs
>>Speaking of healing, the fastest estus drinking in the entire series, as well as the highest %heal per sip in the entire series
part of the game bubby, invaders heal fast too if you don't like chuggies go back to ds2 duel safespace

>3 phantoms = backup buddy
Except for the fact there are vastly more coop summons than invaders, so no
>Seed got nerfed
Hurray, literally over a year after the launch of the game, terrific.
>The whites, yellows and blues get half too
Yeah except they are playing defensively (protecting the host), there is nearly always more of them, and they can take turns covering each other to heal
>muhh meta, everything is viable
absolute brainlet post, try invading with anything other than the two builds i posted and manage even a +25% host kill rate
>anime combos weapons only work if you're a vitlet
Splitleaf Greatsword on a STR build with a dark buff has a 3 hit combo that does upwards of 2600 damage. Good luck surviving that with even 50 vit
>Back up and use your tools to get them into the mobs
Oh yeah i'll back 3 phantoms and a host with 4 times as much healing as i do into the level, i'm sure it'll really tear em up!
>only defence of estus is 'part of the game' which is exactly why i'm critiquing it
jesus what a braindead post

NICE BLOODBORNE CONVERSATION YOU GOT GOING THERE

lost cause, huh. atleast seems like he's having fun

bloodborne is a game, there it's bloodborne related now :^)

>Somewhere at IGN there's a Bloodborne build that's fucked
Any of you fags work there?

Been waiting on L3 awhile, did I get cucked

How would you type out the sound that The One Reborn makes when casting thing?

>basipally

*death screams*

Assuming you mean the AoE
>ooooooooooooooouuuuuuAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH

shshbbshrbsrhr

What's everyone up to in game?

tediously running all of my builds through NG+ because i want to be able to buy materials but also to coop people through story shit

Going through NG on my str boi who I've neglected
I'll be at Mergo soon

coop with randoms innawoods

SRRCing to try and cuck
Wondering if I want to follow through on my Str/Arc build idea
Realizing I have an unfinished meme build no one will find amusing

>go to get a rune from a chalice with glpyh
>faggots put notes on top of doors, on top of the chest itself, on top of the lever
>go to just run past whatever and mash X to pickup the rune and die out
>instead click on 'redditfag420s' p-please updoot meme message

anyone who does this is a tremendous faggot

What are some guns that can do decent damage with 25 BLT?
Not good damage of course, just "not waste of bullets beyond riposte" good.

Anyone up for Defiled Amy? Password is bbg1. Ringing at lamp.

is that a boy

Repeating Pistol always does at worst respectable damage, if you don't mind the bullet consumption. Otherwise I think the Piercing Rifle gets roughly Evelyn tier damage at around that much bloodtinge, so there's that too.

>post praise the praise the sun on every little bit of light in dark souls 3
>get free heals constantly from redditfags ubb-boading
feels good desu

I don't want to know

>50 BLT
>+10 Repeating Pistol
>BMA it, get a backstab
>blow them off the face of the fucking earth
feels fucking great man, i did a meme build once where i rushed Repeating Pistol, levelled only bloodtinge and got all the BMA from before milly
knocking her legs out and BMAing her head with a +5 Repeater is one of the highlights of BB for me

spelunkerbooger?

Anyone want to meme on Wet Nurse with me?

Shit dude, I’m a scrub. Again?

I appreciate you having this much faith in me.

I said I wasn't gonna post one of these but I just watched this and it's too perfect

Thanks Professor

Cool, thanks for the suggestions m8
Piercing Rifle looks pretty cool, I like it.

who are you even talking to

Thanks for sticking it out, blue. I’m fucking terrible at that boss.

Ebby down. Thanks for hosting

i swear i've seen both Abhorrent and Bloodletting Beast do a move that looks like the estus animation from 1 (when a summon was healed)
like an orange mist go into them, couldnt find anything about it on the >wiki
what gives?

What's going on there?

I too wish to know what the fuck he meant

>7/10 nice amount of NPCucks but pretty smol dungo

Thanks for coming Alba, Ries, Jager and Hibiki and sorry for dying so much to my defense, I'm sleep-deprived as fuck

Lolle is here, room for one more.

Guess I missed the forest for the trees. That's not just a save issue, that a completely different, older version of the game. If Zullie is there, any of you dataminers extract all the textures yet? The skybox could still be in the files at least.

it was a promotional image before the game's release bloodborne-wiki.com/p/unused-content.html

yeah I noticed that, just assumed it was an older build
what the _sin_ is going on here

"Wake Me Up Insight" by Evanescence

Thanks for hosting, loved smashing, grounding and pounding vilekek incels in their haze caves

>Bepis violently murdered by pthumerian gang
We need that wall and the pthumerians are going to pay for it.

>get perfect gem from bone ash hunter
>except its arcane with a +bolt attack secondary
>all other values were maxed
ahhhhhhhhh

>tfw I was the last one to climb the ladder

Could you make a webm of it? By the time I saw it the Bepis died

Sorry Alba, already have Lotte and Felina.
Didn't record it, maybe Lotte did since he was the first up there.

got the ps4 to record up to 15 mins so i could record it if you really wanted to see it
it's nothign special really

wew

>looking at my other screen while running
>run into boulder

If I make a co op character what level should I stop at? I'm thinking around 60 but idk

depends where you want to coop

Level doesn't matter for password coop, but for randoms, around 120 probably

higher level, like around 100, is better for the SRRC and getting random FRC chalices. Level 60 is great for cooping most of the story mode / story chalices and for doing invasions, and you don't feel so overpowered after you get FRC gems

I'd say 45 is a really good level to run almost every area in the game, you could probably use one of your pvp characters to coop super lategame like dlc, you might still get summons in the dlc at 45 though because it can be run right after beating amelia

OINKED

at exactly level 98

wanted to add:
crush those vermin, fellow confederate

don't listen to these, if you're looking for ng coop. one of them is memeing

At L3, Yharnamite?

s-shut up

BL43 is the best level tbqhwy famalam
