Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition(360,PS3,PC)v3 - Dark Magic is perfectly balanced - Games

Fuck the summoning system, we need a way to properly get friends for coop. It's just a pain like this. Is there any way to aquire multiple Estocs or is there only one each playthrough?

you're not allowed to have friends in Lordran

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;39066444]you're supposed to avoid the green shit he spews[/QUOTE] I was either in Iron Flesh, or he had me trapped in the wall. I remember I couldn't move for shit.

Anybody have an SL1 available for help with O&S? Seriously those guys are pissing me off.

>iron flesh Why

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;39067541]>iron flesh Why[/QUOTE] Every time I run into somebody that uses it in PvP I just sit back and wait for it to run out, perhaps using an estus flask/humanity just to rub in how stupid they are for crippling their mobility. PvE it's a bit more useful, but since 80% of the Gaping Dragon fight is avoiding it's attacks, movement is crucial.

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;39067541]>iron flesh Why[/QUOTE] I was testing like everything I had. Aural Decoy. Summoning 2 NPCs. Short Bow. Crossbow(shit sucks). Thrust weapons. Clubs. Enchanting them. With Iron Flesh, I managed to drop the dragon's hp down to 50% alone with a Reinforced +5 club. Took his tail hits like a boss. [editline]2nd January 2013[/editline] Maybe I should cut his tail first with help from 2 NPCs Edit: Woho it worked.

What armor do you guys think would go well with this build? [url]https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=329314735682268653[/url] Can't think of any combinations to keep me fast rolling with good defense and decent poise.

How is the added damage from scaling calculated?

[QUOTE=Doneeh;39067901]How is the added damage from scaling calculated?[/QUOTE] There's a rating: S,A,B,C,D,E with S the highest. I don't know the exact formula, but it seems like it's based on the base damage of the weapon rather than adding a fixed amount based purely on the scaling rating.

Wow that fucking axe requires 50 strenght fuckit

[QUOTE=Swebonny;39068092]Wow that fucking axe requires 50 strenght fuckit[/QUOTE] Remember that 2handing a weapon decreases the strength required to wield it effectively. (Also try the 2hand heavy attack)

[QUOTE=Grasp;39068136]Remember that 2handing a weapon decreases the strength required to wield it effectively. (Also try the 2hand heavy attack)[/QUOTE] I have only 18 in strenght. It looks like my character is struggling hard as hell when swinging it.

[QUOTE=Swebonny;39068193]I have only 18 in strenght. It looks like my character is struggling hard as hell when swinging it.[/QUOTE] Ah, I see. How much dex do you have?

[QUOTE=Grasp;39068284]Ah, I see. How much dex do you have?[/QUOTE] 14. Just entered Blighttown. One swing and I fell into the hole.

How do you get to Blighttown with 18 strength and 14 dex?

[QUOTE=Regorc's Chest;39068471]How do you get to Blighttown with 18 strength and 14 dex?[/QUOTE] It's not too hard when you know what you're doing. I've done several SL10 and SL1 playthroughs. I'm no MLG tacomaster pro either. Gotta admit though, it's never fun doing blight town in any playthrough. I just do the masterkey shorcut, fuck doing it right.

[QUOTE=Regorc's Chest;39068471]How do you get to Blighttown with 18 strength and 14 dex?[/QUOTE] I've been onehitting most of the enemies with my Reinforced Club that I have upgraded to +5, together with the Balder shield and 22 in endurance nothing has really been hard. Except now in Blighttown. Feels like I gotta upgrade my weapons even more. Current soul level is 34: 17 vit, 10 attunemnet, 22 end, 20 str, 14 dex, 11 res, 11 int, 11 faith. Upgraded str a bit by using the souls from the Gaping Dragon. edit: I wanted to play with both sourcery and miracles. Never tried miracles though since I found out about pyromancy.

I didn't mind Blighttown at all to be honest, though I guess that's because I had a crap load of both normal purple moss and blooming but hey ya know whatever V:v:V

[QUOTE=WolfeClaw;39068608]I didn't mind Blighttown at all to be honest, though I guess that's because I had a crap load of both normal purple moss and blooming but hey ya know whatever V:v:V[/QUOTE] just pick the master key and you can skip pretty much of all it

[QUOTE=amazer97;39064154]Apparently I heard that if you upvote a comment the writer gets humanity? That's a pretty cool feature.[/QUOTE] I don't think that's ever been proven though. I have a character with a message with 26 positive ratings and it sure didn't give him 26 humanity.

When you kindle a bonfire, the last person who used that bonfire (And maybe the next?) person gets another estus.

[QUOTE=Masamune;39066697]Stuck already. There's a tower and at the bottom there's this really fast guy with a club who 1 hits me. The other way has a large black knight who isn't any easier.[/QUOTE] Ah, I remember my first time down the watchtower. " I wonder what's down these stairs?...What the fuck is he hol"-YOU DIED Also, I find it funny how Solaire And Lautrec could kill the gargoyles without you, but the Gaping dragon wrecks them.

Without them it would have taken so much longer to kill the Gaping Dragon.

[QUOTE=Fancy Parrot;39069583][url]http://mmdks.com/mtr[/url] ...?[/QUOTE] [url]http://mmdks.com/mtt[/url] More defense, less ugly mask and armor. :v:

Is there any actual difference between the Iaito and the Uchigatana apart from the slight differences in damage/defenses? I know about the different heavy attack but like, is there any reason I should upgrade the Iaito over the Uchigatana?
