if you try to invade through SRRC how long does it usually take you? For me its about 10-15mins per invasion. What is your invasion etiquette here?
Lucas Cruz
Does the VA of Micolash have any other Souls roles? I need to do more srrc invasions.
Benjamin Cook
Undead match fightclub?
Juan Jenkins
SRRC invasions are pretty slow to connect compared to co-op so you gotta bear with it. There's generally no etiquette for invasions save for the rules you impose on yourself. I personally like to toy with the host, see if they're cool with me 1v1ing the co-operators first, etc. before going full tryhard.
Luis Bell
What's an undead match fightclub?
Hunter Harris
He posted in the wrong general. Undead match is the dark souls 3 pvp arena with 4 maps and game modes like 3v3's, free for all, and 1v1 duels.
Carson Wilson
Holy fuck someone posted a MHW redemption code that works for everyone on /v/
Literally 100% no joke just tried it on my PS4

Joseph Roberts
This is not the MHW general.
Isaac Martinez
What the fuck, NG+ The One Reborn just charge attacked me when he was at 1% HP. It was a slow charge, but it knocked me down and kept pushing me and pushing me then hit me again as I tried to roll out of the way.
The fight took like 11 minutes because I summoned some noob before it started (I'm playing a twink with 20 STR), and he just died to the vomit in the first 1 minute. One Reborn is actually pretty cool when he has like 25,000 HP and can seriously damage you. Music is dope too
Cooper Butler
He's unironically the boss that took me the longest at bl4
Jayden Morgan
Tor theme is god tier
Justin Reyes
The One Reborn has a great theme and atmosphere. I really like how it starts relatively low key and then builds up.
Kayden Roberts
Reborn and Doggo has the best themes desu
Nicholas Peterson
Have 99 insight. Should I buy a blood rock? Have been using a +10 ludwigs holy blade. Have a +9 whirligig and am wondering if I should level it.
Carter Barnes
>Doggo You mean Watchdog? That's a 'generic' Chalice Dungeon track but it's okay I guess.
Personally I love Gehrman's theme, Ludwig, Laurence, Maria, Living Failures The One Reborn and Martyr Logarius the best.
Eli Walker
Yes, blood rocks are the best use for insight unless you want all the fashion/ lots of blue elixir. You should never have 99 as that prevents you getting more
Caleb Rivera
>he doesn't buy a rock right away at 60 insight
Justin Butler
It's not the "generic chalice theme", the one that plays during the watchers would be the generic theme
Jonathan Barnes
you know there are only two chalice themes right? one for small bosses like watchers and keeper and one for big bosses like blb and doggo
Nathaniel Perez
Wheres a good place to co-op for the league covenant?
Jose Phillips
depends on your level. the bosses most people summon for are shadows, rom, ludwig, orphan and larry
Zachary Robinson
Well I don't have the dlc and I'm level 96, so I guess micolash would be my best bet?
Adam Johnson
The League is a dlc added covenant so you should have it. Unless it was added to the base game like Aldia in Scholar.
Isaac Clark
Its in the base game
Juan Hill
>fight mergo's >she somehow doesn't go into her 2nd form >just punch her to death with my stake driver from behind where she can't even hit me Did my AI just go fullretard?

James Peterson
>Kowalski I feel shamed that a person from my country had anything to do with that abomination.
If you're that faggot who admitted to ban evasion with airplane mode earlier, you deserve it.
Hunter Diaz
Happened to me too like 5 minutes ago. Thought i just bursted her too fast.
Daniel Collins
Using a reference is fine, but not with flat, bland artstyle. Miyazaki must be rolling in his grave.
Jose Carter
I just got here, dude, I just mean whenever I use the wifi in a certain place, there's almost always a ban notice about a post on /g/. Never even been in /g/, wonder who it is getting banned.
Samuel Collins
look around you and you should be able to spot the /g/entooman pretty easily
Levi Rodriguez
I just noticed but, do the lamp messengers in chalice dungeons not wear the messenger hats you set in the hunter's dream? The normal lamp messengers in the base game do.
Charles White
I know that feeling, some dude in my area keeps posting underage images and it makes it really annoying to try and post
Joshua Watson
Haven't played in a while. What is the usual quality set up for BL 98?
Jaxson Long
45vit Base end with anti-clockwise runes 50str 25skl Base Blt and Arc
Or 50skl/25str if you're a viscerals kind of guy, but 50str gets to put heavy abyssals on skill weapons so they scale with strength.
Sebastian Powell
I was thinking of just adding blunt gems on LWHB. I am into a huge swords roll for some reason.
Isaac Thomas
I don't think there's anything wrong with using references either. However, (poorly) copying a screenshot line for line while showing little understanding of how the creature works is infuriating. Look at how the rib-cage just abruptly stops past the arm, or how tiny the flesh cloak is because the artist somehow didn't see that the black fur in the screenshot was actually part of it.
How hard would it be to look up one of the dozens of gameplay videos of this thing to see what it looks like? This guy just doesn't care.
Kevin Torres
or go with base end
Evan Price
Thanks! Now, is it worth it to add some meme arcane skills as well. like old hunter bone or phantasm shell?
Adam Davis
Oh, sorry man. There was a fag on /g/ sometime earlier admitting to his ban evasion on mobile. People told him to stop doing that because mods will just ban the cell towers in the area but of course he didn't listen. I'm glad I don't live in America because you guys must have a lot of those cunts.
Anthony Collins
You can do that, by all means, but one of the attractions of the strength-leaning quality build is its access to most weapons. Try a few skill weapons out, some are fun.
Brandon Evans
I played this game a lot and my last build was actually a tentacle man. I really just wanted to get back to basics since I have been replaying souls games with UGS and wanted to try the same in BB since surprisingly, I never did use LWHB on a character for a long period of tie.
Alexander Lewis
The weird part is I'm in Ireland. Damn, this guy must get around, eh?
Nathan Torres
That's fair enough, Ludwig's has great scaling in str and skl. Next time you can go for the GUIDING MOONLIGHT like I keep meaning to.
Ryan Ortiz
Would fighting the abhorrent beast in the lower loran chalice be harder than ailing? He really dicked me last time
Noah Nelson
no, becuase u have got gud now
Aiden Roberts
wowe
Eli Bennett
Can't seem to make any connections happen in Mensis middle. I've reset the ps4 etc and it's still not working at all.
Austin Nelson
>3 fucking minutes
Jack Myers
Which triangle is better? >27.2% fire >Arc scaling +65 + 15 fire
Mason Sanchez
If the 27.2% is being paired with a Waning Cold Abyssal +15 Fire and the Triangle Cold Abyssal is paired with a 24.8%+15 Fire Abyssal, then the latter will get a bit more AR and damage on most attacks. The difference isn't that huge, more % would be better for most charge attacks
Benjamin Evans
>tfw I realized what I just said and 3 minutes is actually kind of long and it probably wasn't 3 minutes
Luis Wood
Phantasm shell is for a base of 40arc damage, that's not really worth it - especially because a lot of STR weapons cannot be buffed anyway (Amyarm, Boomhammer, etc) Hunter bone has little to no use, the only thing maybe worth the 15ARC is beast roar, but you do plenty of poise damage with STR anyway.
Noah Cooper
Convince me not to start another fucking character especially when I have an unfinished meme cosplay to do.
Ryder Anderson
I feel you. I'm about halfway through the second timeline of my fourth character and I already feel the call of the third. Just need to stick with it an plat this game, is what I keep telling myself.
Jaxson Johnson
If I do this, it'll be something like my 15th playthrough on my 8th character, but I want a Str/Arc build because musclewizard power. I want my guiding moonlight and my WHEEL.
Nathaniel Allen
It’s actually 80, not 40, arcane damage, same as bolt/fire paper, but it’s still not worth it
Andrew Flores
You should, it's one of the funnest builds in the game.
Christian Reed
>fighting loran dark beast >it jumps as soon as i enter the room >roll >get one shot 3 times in a fuckin row
Kayden Green
Just run towards him in a straight line and you’ll survive in most of the cases at least
Leo King
It's time
I want to utilize both modes of HMS and Wheel, 30str/50arc? And just shag gargoyle nourishings on em?

Tyler Martinez
25 str is better put those 5 points somewhere else
Luke Ward
If you search '8403' in hex and replsce the first '8403' you find with 0000, you get infinite bullets
Xavier Morales
Why only 25str?
Gavin Price
soft cap
I'm doing a similar thing with chikage 25skl 50bt
Adam Lewis
>soft cap Oh yeah
So, how does 45vit 14end 25str/50arc look?
Bentley Bell
Also cruel fate origin
James Bell
If you're planning on using the Moonlight Sword, 20 end is nice to be able to untricked charged R2 > followup R2 and still have enough stamina to act, and 41 vit isn't too terribly low.
Logan Lopez
Does the largest beard clip through anything?
Charles Johnson
Do you guys think dark souls 3 is harder than bloodborne? I never had problems with the bloodborne difficulty outside of pthu descendant in FRC, but I unironically gave up on nameless king in dark souls 3 when I played it.
Evan Phillips
click roll repeatedly as fast as you can if you ever take a single hit, then click heal when the boss is at a safe distance. This trick works on every single boss in Roll Swords 3
Leo Turner
No, but I think dark souls 1 is scarier
Carter Reed
Das3 isn't as tight as Bloodborne, it's made in the same engine, I believe, but the combat is nowhere near as tweaked. As a result, combat's messier, looser, you're stuck with rolling instead of quickstepping which just feels far less fluid in getting off successive attacks, plus all the extraneous bullshit of weapon arts which feel like 'we wanna do trick weapons but not put the effort in to constructing one for straight sword #56' so they're just shitty buffs or ebin anime attacks spread out over most weapons, with some unique ones here and there. Bloodborne's tight, tweaked combat allows for a person who get to grips with it far easier and actually really feel like you're mastering melee combat with the various moves you can pull off, that's why it feels 'easier' when in reality it's just more intuitive and fluid with more viable options for attack. Shit hits hard in this game, and it's just as fast, if not often faster, than you are, and you can't block (except for that glitch with the Kirk and Ludwigs, but those aren't viable defenses at all). If Pthumerian Descendant found his way into Lothric, he'd fucking decimate the place.
Carter Clark
leaked concept art of BB2
Lincoln Cox
Did you guys play MHW? How is it?
Ryder King
Played the demo, not my thing. Bloodborne has spoiled me on good combat. I bought DBFZ instead and I also suck at it.
Joseph Sanders
Niceu
Christian Taylor
Is there any lore reason why you can defeat rom in the chalice dungeons before rom at the lake?
Jayden Johnson
Anyone interested in some Lore/Reality of Dreams discussion?
I have two main points which I've been thinking about a lot recently, Point one is the Corpse Pile-Recovery Room-Research Hall-Astral Clocktower angle compared to the Grand Cathedral, and my second point is the "Dream Effect" of certain enemies, like Vicar Amelia and Ludwig, aswell as the Cleric Beast.
David Anderson
Rom is not a unique being. There's more than one, with more than one purpose. Byrgenwerth Rom hides the ritual, Upper Cathedral Ward Rom resurrects, chalices Roms, their purpose is likely forgotten. All lost Pthumerian fuckery.
I have my own theories about the Nightmare through a purely Lovecraftian lense, I'd leak to hear yours.
Joshua Young
Lobos doing his escort run of bloodborne now, go 5 shot bosses with your twinks and invade when he hits 30.
Nathan Anderson
Pass?
Brandon Hernandez
it's not bad. it's very lighthearted and tries to be humorous, combat is okay but it feels sluggish as hell after playing bloodborne almost exclusively for over a year. decent weapons and the farming isn't as bad as I thought it would be. decent game so far.
Landon Allen
But Rom was an actual Byrgenwerth student
Caleb Cooper
FrankerZ
Nolan Bailey
Yeah, and UCW Rom was probably some Pthumerian leftover or Choir member, and the Chalice Roms used to be Pthumerians. My point is Rom is a species name, not a unique name. That's my theory anyway. I think the same thing for Ebrietas.
Brayden Wilson
It's been too long since my previous arc run, this is str/arc so should I still grab the cane or will any do until I can use the false depths to get me wheel?
Cameron Allen
the first question that needs to be asked is: Was the Research Hall created in the Nightmare, or is the Research Hall we explore only a mirror of the one that exists in the actual Yharnam? If so, then the entire structure must have existed in the Cathedral Ward in it's form, which isn't that unlikely, however, the Recovery Room that leads to the Research Hall can not be the Grand Cathedrals "main hall" despite all it's similarieties. In my opinion the purpose of the lower structure is quite clear, Hunters who get injured during hunts are taken to the recovery room, the beds are obviously meant to provide good rest, while there are no experimental medical utensils. Hunters who go mad/descend into beasthood are taken into the lower ward where they get put into cells. I highly doubt the Grand Cathedral war every used in this capacity, it's much more likely to be located beneath what is now the Choir Orphanage.
Tyler Walker
Hello /bbg/
I recently got PS+.
I have a file with all the story chalices beaten. Give me the best Chalice Dungoen glyphs that give easy 27% gems to grind.
Thanks in advance.
Brody Mitchell

Caleb Jenkins
I guess saw cleaver would be optimal but it’s not as if it matters for the 2+2 bosses you need to kill to get the wheel
Aaron Flores
>leak to hear God Almighty, I'm not even phoneposting here
I think the place we explore is simply an older version of the Grand Cathedral, persisting in the Nightmare (in a Lovecraftian Dreamlands way, where old stuff just exists). Over time, in the waking world, as the Church got bigger, extensive renovations were made and repurposing done to the place to make it into the Cathedral we know today. There are incredible similarities, and I remember at one time an user here was convinced that the place see from the balcony leading to Ebrietas in UCW was the recovery room, but it's not, it's the Cathedral, it's Amelia's boss room.
