"but but but the entire world is against the host and its summons" Invade, run to bossfog, host and summons are there, they run the gently caress away from me to the bonfire and shield-wave motioning to get me to come on in and die. How about s my d. 15 minutes later the summons left. Wolfbroed, was sent back the moment I spawn because the pussy force-closed the game and came one step closer to a soft-ban. Not bad for 20 minutes of work.

Someone should let mr.mitsubishi know that you can't hit someone several times with the same spear jab no matter how hard you stab.

Nakar posted:That's not so much what annoys me as the godawful hit detection meaning that anyone who focuses on just sprinting all over the place is unhittable. Had a situation where I invaded as the second phantom for a 2v4 and the two of us killed all the host's phantoms but somehow none of our attacks could even briefly stun the sprinting-all-over host. This continued for about a minute straight whereupon by spamming accept he managed to resummon the same two loving phantoms we just killed. get Gundyr's halberd and become T H E C H A M P H E C H A M P The l2 on that thing outranges an entire stamina bar's worth of rolls and has dark souls 2 boss level tracking. If you're a dex guy like me you can use the washing pole's dash attack as a substitute, once you get used to the timing you can poke them as they come out of the roll for the kill.

Jewel Repetition posted:I'd probably play DS3's PvP if not for the lag. But in a game where it's literally all about timing, there's just no way to work with it. I don't know why they can't do whatever fighting games do to make them playable online. Japan is roughly about the size of California & Oregon, they barely have any lag there and they don't give a poo poo about gaijin American and European game devs will go to more trouble to try to fix this stuff up because they have to serve a much larger landmass

Invading in this game is a crapshoot and the host should basically never lose if he knows what he's doing but once you put 50-100 hours into invasions your brain breaks and you realize that nobody actually knows how to play this game, only you, and you no longer see the game you're in the matrix killing 100 clones of smith without getting hit but they're summoned phantoms instead.

lite_sleepr posted:Fuckstick A-OK, but 'Nig' in Knight is verboten! It's like the Japanese try to filter the profanity they think Americans will use. This is gonna be really pedantic but I'm pretty sure 'Nig' is not actually censored, because the filter doesn't account for capital letters. It's only lowercase. So "Knight" becomes "K***ht", but the classy player "Nig Force One" I invaded isn't censored at all. Similarly, "Fuckstick" begins with a capital F. If they'd typed the name as "fuckstick" it'd be either "****stick" or "*****tick". It's a really halfassed system, much like the cheat detection/bans.

I bet it only works like that because in japanese they use symbols instead of capital and lowercase letters, and capital letters are treated as different symbols. Rather than change how their censor treats characters they just put a half assed list of lower case bad words in and call it a day. Which in itself is probably just a localization solution that can be defined as 'understandable', but when it censors out letters from one of your core class names and game concepts (knight) it goes to hilariously inept its curtains for Kevin fucked around with this message at 00:06 on May 1, 2016 |

double nine posted:So is there anything interesting about arstor's spear? I'm trying it out and it's just very 'meh' in every department - moveset, damage. I guess reach but if your target is strafing good luck with that...What am I missing? It heals you when you kill an enemy. Also it inflicts poison build-up in theory, although I've either never been able to make this work, or the effect is so small you can't even notice it.

If the name checker is accurate to DS2 behavior, they made it worse coming into DS3, because the name checker ignores case, much like the DS3 name censorship system should but doesn't.

I beat Champion Gundyr on the second try. I staggered him right at the end and delivered the killing blow to his head, too, which was neat. I usually take at least half a dozen attempts on any given boss so that was pretty exciting. Give me more rhythm battles like that, please.

Hey, does anybody have a strategy for dodging King of the Storm's completely gently caress up the camera attack? I know this is hardly a novel opinion, but KOTS sucks really badly. It should absolutely be counted as a separate fight like Nashandra and Aldia. There have been five of these and the camera has had basically the same drawbacks in every single one yet they still seem pretty dedicated to showing off its flaws.

Wagrid posted:Hey, does anybody have a strategy for dodging King of the Storm's completely gently caress up the camera attack? Are you talking about the flame breath attack? He won't do that (or at least will do it very rarely) if you keep yourself right in front of his head at all times. Don't go underneath the main body, and don't try to run far away. Just stay by the head, dodge, and counter attack.

It's always the same direction and speed and distance, it's easy.

Just soloed Abyss Watcher for the first time. loving intense, though I had to die a couple of times to figure him out... Ran out of estus but beat him with ~15% HP left. The luck/bleed build isn't really working for me. Can't get anyone to bleed. Is it because I infused my uchi with fire to avoid leveling str/dex? Or is it just me not getting enough hits in. e; Ah, I get it now. Fire Gems also limit bleed scaling. School Nickname fucked around with this message at 00:26 on May 1, 2016 |

Nanomashoes posted:Why would he purposefully put himself in a disadvantageous position? Yeah but it's dark souls PvP, you're never guaranteed a fair fight and only a fool would expect one. MrLonghair posted:"but but but the entire world is against the host and its summons" Phantoms that give up on waiting games and abandon their hosts are the best. It's like they're saying "gently caress this wussy, let him die" The only host behaviour that feels degenerate to me is when they hide inside wolnir's fog door. Either come outside and die to me or fight the drat boss, it's not like he's hard.

Mazerunner posted:don't lock on? like you're talking about the one where he takes off and flies around, right? does a lightning spear and then a swoop. I was in fact not talking about any of his actual attacks and was making a joke about how lovely the camera is. I can dodge both of these attacks just fine. The latter is actually like the one cool thing he does! Also, re: the flame breath attack: what the game considers to be 'under the body' doesn't correlate super closely to his actual physical body.

They should do something extra to make the Blue Sentinels good Like, WotB people should have cracked blue eyes, using it summons a Sentinel into your world to help you take out a boss or invader, and they'd get their reward for it. Maybe you'd have to fight a hollowed Targray to get a full blue eye orb
