/dsg/ - Demon's/Dark Souls General

Make sure you use heal miracles in range of NPC's, you are blessing them. Heal peaceful hollows who are just sitting on the ground in despair. Or you could use a suitable gesture instead.

Spare hollows, fighting them only if you have to.

My favourite memory of dark souls 2 is pimpslapping fuck out of my mate with the sorcerers staff using only the melee attack.

I will be that gud again.
>caestus
>miracles
that damn prowling magus nicked your flock and you're gonna set him right with some good ol' fashioned fistycuffs.

This is Friede, say something nice about her.

>Hit arena opponent
>Realise he was using Tears of Denial
>Combat becomes rollfest

Oh dear dear Throwing Knifes.

>have one piece of thorns on
>roll into opponent after the tears break
wooooooow such good spell am impress

Well they are wasting 2 att slots on it anyway, so if they are casters then they are fucked, and if they are not casters they are just using their blue bar which else would be obsolete.
Just don't trade stupidly because of that

>something nice

She's central to the plot of the weaker and shorter of the two DLCs, so I'm not forced to interact with her much.

Fuck you, Fred.

Maybe make him a blind raggedy monk who uses stuff like the Bellvine Chime and fights with the Quakestone Hammer. He could also use supportive miracles like Atonement, Sacred Oath, Projected Heal and so on.

Seriously, stop.

neat, this is a good idea

>caestus only
b-but so many fun weapons user

what kind of person should a BC on? Like, people who summon Londor Pale Shade beside me, etc

yeah that's exactly what I want, buffing buds for bossfights

She's a dumb cunt who wants to sit around in a pile of fecal matter for some unknown reason.

>Preaches for a world of Hollows
>Won't accept her true form

>Miyazaki criticizing religious authorities for being a bunch of lying shills for the 133243th time.

God, Sirris is such a cutie, I wish there was more fanart of her.

She has very cute feets!

i love her and she has the best feet ever!

You may also use hammers but only blessed (lightning) ones.
anyone who assosciates with other invaders gets left on their own.

Someone a few threads ago posted one but I can'r remember it. I really can't bring myself to play 3 when it looks like mud 80% of the time.

I always love playing humble clerics. I really missed the holy set in the later games.

I've just realised I could filter the word "feet" over the whole of Veeky Forums and miss out on absolutely nothing.

Why be a priest when you can be a nubile nun who knows not the touch of another man? Call upon goodly knights to "escort" you on your pilgrimage.

That's friede? What? What happened to the left part of her face?

you deserve to be pithed.

Why is the washing pole's reach about twenty feet long?

There are a lot of implications hinting at vice in this post.
which is perfect for Souls cynical view of religion.

Serious question, are there any religious figures, npc's or factions that actually did stuff that was very beneficial to the world, in both souls games and bloodborne?

Anyone want to help me with Dancer? level 92 I can't figure this one out and tbqh I feel like moving on to the next area.

Ariandel's caustic cummies

>fragile maiden in antiquated gear or the like summoning golds and whites to be buffed and healed as they clear a path
sounds like a healslut

The warriors of sunlight are all good lads.

>level 92
Keep trying, there is absolutely no reason you shouldn't be able to beat her at that level.

True, but what about for the big church groups in the game?

Warriors of Sunlight seems to have only a few followers.

>get called for police duty
>start fighting invader
>host and the next blueberry in line just stand by and watch me fight
I'm not mad that they didn't gank him with me but... why the fuck does this never happen when I'm the one invading? 400+ invasions, happened literally never.

No they're not.
They're gay faggots. Look at that dumb cunt Solaire.

I would really prefer if the dumb tripfag wouldn't make new threads anymore, thanks.

Got any pointers? Honestly I'd feel like a major faggot if I did summon. Would much rather get her myself. I'm two-handing my mace and staying close and behind her, and I can often run behind a pillar while I chug estus, but she hits like a truck.

Bait better user. I know your teachers and parents once believed in you. You can be more creative.

Cast your doubts all you want, this nun is still technically a virgin

Fucking help me dudes

Why Miyacuck never followed his original odea of making Priscilla the main character of the DS series?

Why he used such weak ass lore on the games instead of something decent?

velka / pardoners do seem to have your best interests at heart even if they're fucking creepy.

>Lewd souls

Miyazaki is way too based
>You beat the shit out of 2 incest faggot cripples
>You plunge through a mob of fat catholics
>Their God is actually an ugly slug who covered entire castle in shit
>Gwyn who is loved more than Jesus is actually a faggot and enemy of humanity but still forced to people to praise him as a god even while he imprisoned them

And the best thing is, you can choose to fuck them all over

Learn to recognize her combos, actually count the hits out loud, it helps if you're a shitter. It's just practice aside from that.

We don't really hear anything bad about the church of Carim in dark souls 3. The two members we meet also both turn out to be good.

Solaire is a cuteboi
Don't bully him

She was supposed to be the "main heroine" in the same way Maiden in Black was for Dark Souls 1 i.e the level up girl. Dark Souls also wasn't intended as a series from the get go.

But Nat's art is always welcome so...

You have to pay them stuff to get your "sins" absolved though.
Which is basically a straight up parallel from "indulgence" practice the catholic church used to do.
You don't actually suffer punishments for your crimes, you just buy them off.

I feel sort of cheated out of an ember right now

Oh gosh Sirris a cute

If you need them so much I can drop you some

>literally minutes of waiting for watchdog invasions at sl25+2

why

Then why BB has a much better story and a main heroine?

>Some of the faces look acceptable
>Some of them look worse than oblivion.

except the pardoner in 2 does give you absolution for free and I think in DS1 theres something about velka trying to help the common plebs get out from under the god boot.

I need something fun

What's a fun build to try, mostly for co-op

Nah, I have hundreds of them, it just annoys me that you can get killed after the ember is consumed but before it heals you.

>except the pardoner in 2 does give you absolution for free

Oh shit, I never knew that.

Deus Vult Build with lightning Spears and Astora GS

had this happen to me during bossfights a bunch on my first playthrough, sometimes you get iframes from activating ember, sometimes you burn the ember and it doesnt even heal cuz you get hit immediately

>Warriors of Sunlight seems to have only a few followers
Nigger, by that logic there's only 1 or 2 Darkmoons in the entire series. Everyone online who's a sunbro / member of other covenants online, counts in that.

But yeah, I think Sunbros, Blue Sentinels and Darkmoons are generally good people.

What are her tells? I've never been very good at this part of boss fighting. I'm too jittery.

On an unrelated note, when do titanite chunks become readily available? I've only found two. One of them was kind of a while back, I think, so have I overlooked a source of them?

But golden Sunbros can turn into orange Dickwraiths just by pressing on the Red Eye Orb instead.
And they still get sun tokens.

Ahaha, jesus christ:
youtu.be/CVoIPwK28Ik?t=186

Yeah, but like your adding the parallel dimensions together, which doesn't count. I mean for each "game world" there is small number of dorkmoons and sun bros.

I don't know about ds3 lore, but I know the Blue sentinels were actually a powerful faction in DS 2, eve after Heide fell. Shit they technically have two covenants. The only guy you meet is a a bit snooty but they do seem to want to protect people.

After The Dancer

Look, I love Bloodborne and all, it's tied with DS1 as my favorite Soulsborne game but "why is x better" questions are kind of pointless when it comes to matters of taste and preference and you're being way too broad and vague.

i leveled vitality to 25 so that i could wear lothric knight armor without fat rolling. did i fuck up?

i have a conession to make...
i have successfully guard broken/parried dozens of times but missed the riposte animation every time
i assume i didnt land it and just go for the R1 every time

I just LOVE when the host panics so hard he just disconnects or alt+f4 out. Nothing like taking their pride

What do I do about this continuous spin of death she starts doing after about half her HP is gone? If I don't do anything stupid I can often get her to this point but that's where I start to lose it. Neither staying close nor trying to get away seems to work for me there.

It happens to everyone.

Get behind the pillars and try to manipulate her position with them. I hear you can also mash roll but I've never pulled it off.

Does Prissy have panties? can't remember if on DS1 you can see them.

Just chase her ass while she twirls, don't even need to dodge for 90% of it. You only have to dodge the last double spin and only with one roll. If you want to play it safe or just learn the timing, you can just block that spin (even with your weapon, you'll just get guard broken). Retaliate during her recovery.

The wind up on it is pretty long and she will always do it as soon as she pulls out her second sword.
As soon as she starts winding it up just run the fuck away to the opposite side of the room, hiding behind a pillar.

>tfw you realise the Champion's Gravetender is actually a representation of your average PvP player

lmfao are you literally me?

You did more damage with those 2 Zwei swings anyways than you would with a crit (assuming you have no hornet on)
Riposte doesn't even deal that much damage unless you made your build around it

Can Gael be parried? He's not too hard to fight normally but goddamn it I'm only dealing 150 damage per two-handed R1, at that rate it's going to take me about a hundred hits to kill him.

I always whip out a giant wolf when I'm losing in PVP.

Yeah I made it through four or so spins the last time by rolling but it felt like I was getting lucky. I couldn't replicate that feat intentionally I don't think. She kept attacking and got me. I'll try figuring out how to whore the pillars though, thanks m8.

By the way, is she one of the bosses it's better not to lock onto? I've been locking on and just manually unlocking when I need to run away more easily but I wonder if it might be better to stay unlocked? Some boss fights are like that.

You know what's worse than missing the gurad break?
Accidentally backstabbing a fellow invader when he's about to get a guard break riposte on the host

He can't be parried but he can be staggered and riposted during 2nd and 3rd phase. The timing is really tight though.

He also takes bonus damage from FGS and WKGS, and HSGS in phase 2 and 3

The fucking Prepare to Die edition has the DLC included or what?

Happened way too often, especially when I'm using spells to finish off the host I end up oneshotting with CSS or CBV my fellow invadermate

>not having pinpoint precision

Yes.

...

Explain rather how did you survive taking a fucking particle beam in the face?

He had the Sellsword Bullshitblades

Just tried riposting him multiple times in phase 2, doesn't fucking work. It appears to be the same stagger animation as in phase 1, which I can't riposte either. I'll keep trying but it doesn't look too good.
