mastershakeman posted:Were Gank squads this prevalent in past games? I'm getting really frustrated. I don't think matchmaking specifically prioritized invasions on people who had already summoned before, has it? If it's not gank squads it's people who summoned for the boss or just to clear the level. A big part of it is it's almost impossible to get invaded while playing solo outside of a couple specific areas, in my experience.

Is there a way to make yourself more prone to random player invasions? That's my favorite form of PvP in souls games. Gank squads have soured invading for me, but if one dude wants to invade me that's cool.

It basically makes you a beacon for invasions (also lets you summon an extra phantom in return). It's reusable so you can use it every time you enter a new area or die and respawn to keep the effect going.

It makes it so you can be invaded by multiple phantoms though so you'll just end up on the other side of a gank.

You know what sucks? If you put a Dark infusion on a Dark Sword, you get a Reinforced Dark Sword. I wanted a Dark Dark Sword.  Also goodness Lothric marriages are intense.

Yeah super low-level invades are really terrible. I had a lot better luck at ~50 invading Cathedral of the Deep and Carthus Catacombs. You still run into the occasional twinker and gank squads but at that point in the game you can be toting ten +5 Estus and some mid-level upgrades on weapons, so you're a little better armed against that bullshit. e: vvv Welcome to Dark Souls 3 invasions, where invaders are heavily weighted to hosts that have cooperators.

What buffs magic damage and what buffs sorcery? MLGS+5 went from 242+129 to 238+203 magic damage at 60 int in 1.07 I know I can throw on magic clutch for 15% more. Anything else stack? Dusk Crown? Hackan Slash fucked around with this message at 17:16 on May 20, 2016 |

What's the deal with the lucerne? I've never beaten it in pvp. It seems really hard to roll out of its overhead swing and it does pretty decent damage. Am I supposed to just parry it?

Internet Kraken posted:Forbidden sun is a PvP spell, where the fast projectile speed is actually useful. Great chaos fireball is still just as good though as the lingering lava pool can gently caress with dodging. Is this one of those things where people refuse to call something what it is and call it something else because of their headcanon or because they're trapped in a time warp and can't let go? I'm not seeing Forbidden Sun in either of the wikis. double nine posted:is steam dark souls down for anyone else? Yeah it's been down for weeks, apparently. There are third party tools you can use but they only connect to specific people, so no invasions, just duels, and you have to know who the person is.

If you can stay on top of them and get in hits between swings, you should win handedly. The last place they really want you is right beside them.

So i got my 40 in int with enough stats to swing my dark sword. And im not sure if i should dump the next 20 points into int to hit the cap or if i should invest the next 20 in faith to get some of the utility pyro and miracle skills. Im also not sure if i should do smouldering lake or the boreal valley next. Is smouldering lake completely optional? Is there a huge difference in the way 40 int hits vs 60? And the 20 or so points is just to make sacred flame work so i can actually live through pvp until i get homing crystals. Philosopher King fucked around with this message at 17:58 on May 20, 2016 |

Is there a huge difference in the way 40 int hits vs 60? smouldering lake is 100% optional and also not super hard so i like to clear it out earlyish. you can even cheese the boss with a longbow and circle strafe skills.
