... and all the other things floating around out there / Re: Dark Souls 3
« on: April 20, 2016, 02:31:48 pm »
I have 3 chars now, a heavy shielder, a "pure mage" as in no shield and a short sword, and a cleric with "balanced" attributes.
The shielder is an absolute beast in PvP. I am not that good, I don't use sophisticated tactics or anything, I just facehug and nail my enemies in the ground. Since I passed lvl 50, I haven't lost a single PvP encounter.
seriously. Armor is 26 on average, black tower shield and a brigand +7 axe. If they are being smart with parrying/kicking - I use shield bash. Have almost 1400 life, so even criticals don't take more than 1/3 of my bar.
Might change later in game, but so far, I don't see how a Mage can 1 on 1 my shielder. That's just pretty much impossible...
Hope there will be some very powerful magic spells later in game, as it just not working in PvP
Btw, the best PvP spell I have used so far is farron sword, or whatever it's called, it needs 23 intelligence, but that's the only useful spell in 1 on 1 imo.

Are you even human?..
damn... It will take me over 100 h to finish for sure. If it's as long as ds2.Cheers, this seems to be good and really helpful advice. I appreciate it!
Since I am still at the Highwall and just had my first 2 tries on that silver doggy thing - I am considering to restart...
Don't rush it with restarts. You probably didn't mess it up too much yet

Also, absolutely love that the armor sets have much more cloth added to them in Dark Souls 3 compared to previous versions. Fallen Knight set is fucking orgasmic.

Srsly guys, can any of you honestly beat that tree boss alone, solo, without using a 100% physical res shield?... I do like 100 dmg per hit, and it just seems impossible to finish alone... On my second char - Mage, we were 4 people, and I was last man standing when it finally died. I used that chicken claw to summon an extra guy

« on: April 13, 2016, 03:59:19 pm »listen to this fucking casul
Even so, as I struggled through a good portion of the game by now, level 35, I am yet to see a single guy who is worth anything in PvE or PvP
they are all fancy and jump around a lot, but just one mistake - and they have a hair-thin health left and no flasks...I do summon people often at this point, and if there is a choice - I always bet on a knight with a shield and a straight sword of some kind.
If it's a Mage, than it's understandable, but ninjas just don't last very long.

Hehe, I was helping a guy after finishing the boss and getting the banner-key, I was only few meters behind him, and when I jumped off the ladder next to the spot, all I could see were his legs siezuring out of the chest
died instantly.Yeah, and there was this other guy, he was clearly as new as me, poking in every corner, picking up stuff, rolling on all boxes etc., this guy got so hyped when he met a crystal-lizard-bug ( with a gem in it) that he probably went epileptic on the controller and roll-jumped off the roof. Died obviously

One of the very first chests you'll see is a mimic.

45 min left! Boy-o-boy-o-boy. Slep for a few hours in the afternoon, and I'm so ready to harvest souls! Going to guard them precious souls with my great three-meter-tall-and-thick shield!

Well, I haven't seen any videos, or read anything, so it might take me a while to find any good gear, and I will probably miss few obvious starting locations, so I want to have a safe and sound char - less raging, and it will give me a chance to study enemy moves, instead of a monkey-rolling as if I'm on fire.

Finished downloading A little over 12 hours left before the unlock!
My first char will be a balanced shielder: A basic towershield ( or whatever they have with 100% physical res ), a spear or a long sword, few points in faith ( i guess 12 will do ), medium armor. May be a light crossbow.
He will be ugly as fuck. Big head, fat ass, skinny body. Will call him Otto von Chickenpox.

Soooo.... A little over 24 hours left. My post-chickenpox condition gives me an appotunity to dive into it as soon as it comes out I will order a big box of sushi, make a huge can of coffee and conquer the darkness!
