Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
*after turning my PS3 on again after a while and playing DS II, equips the Mehlu Scimitar to see what the hypes about*
Funny, because the gif makes SO much more sense now. Like, it did before, but especially now.
My question though is that doesn't that one spear with the rock around it have a similar party and better range/move set? Since you're going to be two handing the Mehlu anyways, why not use the spear?

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
So after getting a little burnt out of Dks II and somewhat inspired by A German Spy's Rusty Adventure, I decided to dust off Demon Souls which I never finished , so if anyone wants to do some jolly cooperation (or set up duels) in Boletaria just say so. Though I just started the character an hour ago so take that into account.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Would love it if the upcoming DLC released a Hex AoE debuff which prevented all healing, including from non-estus sources, and the caster's own for a long duration (90 second base duration); basically Profound Still for healing. Sorely needed.
Also a short duration buff (30 seconds or so base duration) that dispelled all other buffs in its AoE, including from items/resins, and prevented further buffing for its duration would be sweet.
Been trying out a glass cannon bow build using the Lightning Clutch Ring + Flynn (yes I know Flynn's doesn't work on bows; it does work with all the other stuff I'm packing though) + Ring of Blades with Bow of Want; works surprisingly well; bow usually hits for 400-600 damage, and 50-150 damage through shields:

Love dropping a Blinding Bolt, then following up with lightning arrows as the other player frantically rolls away; when you get the timing down on the arrow releases, this is almost guaranteed damage. Lightning Foot Soldier Sword and Old Whip (swap Raw variants in vs other Faith characters or GMB) make for powerful and quick finishers.Last edited by Surrealistik; 2014-08-13 at 01:34 PM.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
so, the mirror knight fight is really cool, even if 90% of the mechanics in it are the same as every other boss thats just a big dude. the atmosphere in it is really nice, the unique lightning animations are cool, the damage reflection was sorta neat, even if it never really came up in my fight, and most of all the summoning of an NPC/player was sweet. in my fight i only got an npc that died very quickly, but i did some sunbroing and encountered some real players there and man do they change the fight dynamic.
after that i looked up how to get summoned by him and went and got me a red soapstone and did a few mirror squire bouts, and the fights could be evenly divided between "host and 2 Havel's with red rust twinblades" and "person who was not expecting to fight an invader"
i then when to the undead crypt, had little trouble going through there untl the boss fight, that guy hits like a truck, but i beat him with some help, got the kings key and tried to fight the king thats wandering around aimlessly, as you might have guessed, this did not go well, and in my stubbornness i tried to fight him many many times, i grew frustrated and rather than move on, i decided to try a new build, started up a new character to see how sorceries are in this game, looked up some builds and decided i want to power stancing Blue Flames, i'm actually pretty close to catching up to my other character now, soon i'll actually be able to get my hands on those swords, should be fun!

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
no idea, i haven't touched the default settings.
so, i finally got to the crypt on my sorceress, started farming the infinitely spawning wraiths and much to my surprise i got 2 blue flames within 5 minutes, got one to +5 magic right away, then went back to the shrine of A-whatever, and killed far too many of those cleric guys, i had to use a bonfire acetic for the first time, but after a couple hours i was able to get another 12 twinkling titanties, went and fought the boss of the crypt, got the kings ring and then bought the last three titanites needed from the stone trader lady, so i now have two +5 magic blue flames, and then went back and sunbroed that boss a couple times to get a feel for the new movesets.
i have 50 ATT so i'm carrying around great heavy soul arrow x4, soul spear x2, soul greatsword x1 and great magic weapon x1, so when i'm all buffed up i feel like walking a artillery canon, though due to fashion souls i am also made of glass... so yeah, the epitome of a glass canon here.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
I have one. I don't remember what exactly I want besides that fancy spear, and that two handed greatsword wielded by the giants in the Dragon Castle Place (and a Channeler's staff for purely dancing purposes), or a Red Sign Soapstone (which I think is needed for being summoned by the Mirror Knight?), but yeah, I've definitely got one. I'll take a look at my inventory later today and see what I have that requires Petrified Dragon Bones.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
I don't think I have anything that you want right now (it is a fairly new character and I don't have a single boss weapon with me since I guzzled all of them for quick/easy leveling since dual-wielding red rust swords was the plan from the very start). By fancy spear do you mean Santier's? Because I have one, un-upgraded tho, and I have a couple petrified something so I can try to see if I can get you a Channeler's spear.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Well my character is around 1 mill SM if you want to trade, though I can't go on today. Oh and the way to the Door of Pharro's is going through the Shaded woods past the Scorpioness Najika boss room, once there just turn right at the Rusted Primal Knight.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
No problem, though I suggest going as a member of the Rat coventant, that way the monsters won't attack you and you won't be summoned to fight or at the very least in offline mode. Also the spear is inside the room opened with 3 lockstones (though you only need 1, the others are to release the primal knight so he can fight for you if you are a ratbro.

Also, because this deserves it's own post and I can't wait to post it.
I am completely unashamed in saying started the snowball effect of an artist known as Artsed/Blaze to produce this series of quick sketches on Elizabeth.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
New patch/calibrations in preparation for the DLC.
Best part? They removed buff stacking. Most non-weapon buffs now cancel out any others you might have up.
Now if they can just re-fix the banana and do something about soul memory...

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Yeah, I'm stoked about buff stacking getting destroyed; basically this calibration badly nerfed a bunch of builds that aren't mine (those GMB + Numbness + RF stacking Havelmonsters in particular); always a good thing.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Offensive miracles were apparently nerfed even further though. Hell, Lighting Spears had gone from super duper maybe too good to barely there in my cleric as is, even LESS damage on something that has three casts is just rubbing it in. If you don't want Faith people using damage spells don't bloody make Faith damage spells, instead of making them and then making them useless!
Back to the Soul Vessel it is. I'm turning this character into a Dex build or something.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
No idea why Faith projectile spells are getting nerfed so hard; before all of these changes they were good in PvE but mediocre in PvP. After the first set they were meh in PvE and horribad in PvP; with the second set, bad in PvE and a total waste of slots in PvP.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Latest patch is here.
Also, the health damage on lightning spears was not actually nerfed again, instead they hit the poise damage on them.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Thanks. As far as offensive miracles go, I certainly don't mind them being hit wit the nerf bat, as I've said many times. Of course, I can easily see it ending up an overkill. And I do wonder if they're ever going to do something about Dexterity and Strength scaling.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
I do think they've probably hit the lightning spears with the nerf bat a bit too much. Was there something weird going on in the japanese meta we haven't heard about?
The real problem was always hexes, and as far as I'm aware those are under control now. Once they have the Monastery Scimitar and Soul Memory fixed most of the glaring flaws should be dealt with.

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
Huzzah! Just managed to kill Sinh and obtain the crown. On NG+, no less. Cost me a total of about 15 Human Effigies and 700 lightning arrows/bolts, but the great ugly beast finally fell.
Now I think I'm ready for the new expansion, although I still have to defeat the trio. I'm not used to PvP, so this battle is nearly impossible for me to solo, and I can't find any summons near the boss door.Now I'm thinking with ponies!

Re: Dark Souls III: Witty Title Pending
I have no idea; the nerfs must be motivated by PvE because there was no way lightning spears were _ever_ an issue in PvP.
Also the new DLC stuff that matters to me:
Spoiler
- Prophesized return of the Father Mask; still the best looking mask in the game. The Legend never dies.
- Umbral Dagger for super backstabbu.
- Ashen Warrior Sword because it has more reach than the Foot Soldier Sword and is just as fast with the same poise damage.
- Fume Sword for the same reasons as the Ashen Warrior.
- Fire Snake and Outcry are pretty cool, though the latter has too much start up and requires two slots. Fire Snake could see use on my build though.
