What's the best backup riptose weapon if running a whip? I'm guessing mailbreaker, because it's the highest base damage with a 130 crit.

you just need enough vitality to keep under 70% equip load with your favorite armor and weapons equipped. there's not much benefit in heavy armor with poise being what it is, so it's all down to fashion

Vit is the Fashion Souls stat that you level until you get your desired roll with your desired end-game gear. Find the stuff you want to wear for the rest of the game and respec Vit to whatever it needs to be for you to be under 70 or 30 equip load, whatever your preference. Anything over that is a waste, unless you like having lots of options I guess.

It's just a speech slip-up. Both lines of dialogue are telling you not to look for Anri, since that character's gender is always opposite yours.

of all of those things, the spirit amethyst that apparently seeks out the host of a world in pvp is the only thing i'd really like them to have kept and implemented. it sucks invading a huge zone like cotd or road of sacrifice and having no idea where the poo poo the host is hiding if they choose not to show themselves.

Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.
Wearing a bunch of armour makes a really helpful difference in damage absorption early on, on my lv30 I've got 21 vit and Havel ring, non-fatroll 70.0% of weight and despite the state of things I survive PvE and PvP remarkably well. It's just that it would have been better off in PvP being near naked under 30% weight with points in vigor.

Got builds on paper of up to 37 vitality that are staying on paper because they'd get stunlocked by a dwarven dickslapping. Rest in pickled piss, BLACK KNIGHT 2000.

Also there's a video of some unused sounds for Ocelotte on reddit, but don't listen to it because it is literally a baby screaming with violent sfx surrounding it.

Weight gain is impossible.
Using Raw is recommended for sorcery/pyromancy builds, right, since the weapons can still be buffed? I'm thinking of trying a pyro runthrough.

Early on raw is recomended for everyone. Though some weapons are better raw than others. rear end is best raw and longsword is probably best for elemental infusions.

The three "best" raw weapons (in terms of AR, overall damage, and stat requirements) are probably the Astora Straight Sword, Drakeblood Greatsword, and the regular ol' Glaive. For elemental infusions, the Lothric Knight Sword wins out for a lot of the infusions, as well as having a good moveset.

The drawback is you have to use a straight sword like some lame-o. Thankfully I wisened up and went with a Greatsword halfway through my first (Miracle-build) playthrough like all the cool kids.

E: Also I got like 3 Corvian Greatscythes that run and now that I'm going Pyromancy and want one to try with Chaos infusion, it won't even drop. I'm mad!

So I think its safe to say Ocelotte was part of the Oceiros fight and then cut by the censorship board.

Mail breaker and the standard Dagger are both tied at 130. Handmaiden sells daggers. Get both, and check your scaling & infusion options to see what hits hardest.

BillmasterCozb posted:

Firing a crossbow and reloading a crossbow take about the same amount of time. Having another shot loaded at the start of a fight, and being able to load a second shot while you don't have a clear target, is totally a slight improvement in your ability to shoot stuff dead.

Yeah, because it's an early/midgame spell that you can't get till near endgame in a game where sorcery is already weak. It's like they ported it straight over from the first two games but totally forgot to put it somewhere that would actually make sense.

to be fair it's not like magic makes any goddamn sense in ds3 anyways

see regular soul spear doing less damage than ghsa (until you hit 60 int w/ +10 sage staff) while costing 2x as much and casting slower

Well, I think I'm done with this game for a bit.

Guy invades me at the high wall of lothric, laggiest rear end in a top hat I've met. He came up to me, unloaded his attacks on my shield, and got punished. He rolls away, I let him estus, he does the same thing. He also spammed parry so hard that he let me get behind him and backstab him, twice. He tried using the black crystal after I started summoning a sun bro just to mess with him, but he even hosed that up by doing it right next to me, so I backstabbed him again, lethally this time. This happened in NG+++++.
