Can you ride the bonewheel shield? If not that should totally be added in DkS2.

no but it does a scary amount of damage. also, my [URL="http://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?b=d2FuZGVyZXIsMjQsMTQsMjgsMTAsMTYsMTIsMTEsOCwwLDUxLDUxLDMsNTEsMzEsMjIsMTAxLDEwMSwwLDAsY2hhb3MsbGlnaHRuaW5nLG5vcm1hbCxub3JtYWwsMSwzOCwzNSwwLDAsMCwwLDAsMCwwLDAsMCwwLDAsd29vZGVuLHdvb2Rlbix3b29kZW4sd29vZGVuLDE="]xanthous sens darkwraith[/URL]

Oh god it just occured to me how much voice chat ingame would ruin it Dark Souls 2 please don't include that

[QUOTE=Foogooman;38832860]Oh god it just occured to me how much voice chat ingame would ruin it Dark Souls 2 please don't include that[/QUOTE] I agree so much here. I usually play Dark souls without steam sounds and no music on just for the ambient effect.

[QUOTE=Foogooman;38832860]Oh god it just occured to me how much voice chat ingame would ruin it Dark Souls 2 please don't include that[/QUOTE] I remember reading somewhere that limited online contact in Dark Souls was intentional.

I was walking through the forest, I could hear the gentle breeze and the creeking of wood. That's when I heard a phantom spawn into my world through the trees I could hear him running towards me screaming "YEAH BITCH EAT SHIT YOU FUCKFACE IM GONNA SHIT IN UR MOTHERS MOUTH"

gentle shield bashes upon the wind, ripostes, an invader very loud gay porn making its way towards you

Since when was oolacile township chock full of hackers?. My Sl1 was getting invaded by another SL1 guy who had 99 of every stat, along with me invading some grave lord who was casting TwoP the moment i spawned, then proceeded to one shot me with his demon great axe, Guy also turned out to have god on as well, as i found out the next invasion while he was getting slaughtered by a spirit of vengeance.

I decided to take a break from my no shield run because I'm after the Lord Souls and I just hate so many parts of that I'm going to put it off. Decided on the new character to not skip Blight Town using the shortcut. I've made a terrible mistake.

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;38831478]As fun as Strength builds are, I really hope FROM fixes the imbalance between Strength and Dexterity in DSII. Dex Weapons: -Attack extremely fast -Scale well -Never require more than 20-30 dex -Do less poise damage -weigh very little Strength Weapons: -Are always slower than dex weapons -almost always have worse scaling -Routinely require 40+ strength -Do more poise damage -Are heavy as fuck[/QUOTE] Seem pretty balanced to me. Both are viable.

Does anyone have a decent Paladin Leeroy build? Was kinda following this one, but I'm not sure anymore. [url]http://darksoulswiki.wikispaces.com/Paladin+Build[/url] Also, what weapon should I use before I get Grant? I'm mostly pumping strength, not putting any points into dexterity, so my choices are kinda limited. Help would be greatly appreciated!

It's ability to have amazing reach and hit behind you make it a very viable weapon for any build.

dragon tooth + sunlight blade or something

[QUOTE=Wingedwizard;38835808]Seem pretty balanced to me. Both are viable.[/QUOTE] Viable? Sure. But my point is that strength builds inevitable get locked into slow, heavy combat because STR weapons are all slow and weigh tons and tons. Dex builds get way more choice, not to mention they don't have to invest in 40+ DEX the way STR builds have to. So, to sum it up, dex builds have: -lower level costs -more gear choice -more mobility -more DPS the only thing STR builds have over that is more poise damage and more damage per strike.

[quote]DPS[/quote] really?

DPS. Dark Souls. You may choose only one.

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;38836285]really?[/QUOTE] Yes. Even if one swing from a +15 Greatsword does ~500 damage, someone with a +15 BSS can swing twice in the same timeframe, doing ~800 damage at 40 dex.

Oh man, I really want to see the stats on that first pic. Also it's not 'the legend' without your +5 Chaoshander.

heres the stats in image format [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Uzl5U.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/m3WO8.png[/IMG] [img]http://i.imgur.com/sMrH8.png[/img]

I want to do all the things. What's the difference between wielding something one-handed and two-handed?

The moveset of the weapon changes and you get 1.5x more strength.

[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;38836501]I want to do all the things. What's the difference between wielding something one-handed and two-handed?[/QUOTE] Two-handing a weapon increases damage done (except for backstabs, I believe) and lowers strength requirements to wield some weapons effectively.

It increases backstab damage as well. Not by a HUGE amount, though.

I wouldn't mind 3D VOIP in Dark Souls, where people can only hear you if you're like less than 10 metres away from them. I've recently decided I want to invade someone wearing really gigantic armour, run off before they get a chance to see me and hide for a while so they have no idea where I went, and scare the shit out of them by stalking them until I have an opportunity to drop off a ledge and do a falling attack on them with Smough's Hammer, screaming "360 NOSCOPE FAGGOT!" right as I hit them.

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;38836663]It increases backstab damage as well. Not by a HUGE amount, though.[/QUOTE] It just increases by whatever increasing your strength by 1.5x adds to the strength scaling.

Man, I knew exactly what to expect when going to fight Sif after saving him. Yet I still felt legitimately sad. What kind of sorcery is this, it's just a game. And here I am, actually feeling bad. Fucking Dark Souls.
