It feels so good to use the Red eye orb and get a hit in like 5 seconds every single time. I've already seen more blue sentinels in this game than in 200 hours of dark souls 2.

I find it really difficult to measure the difficulty in souls games since I'm so much better at them now than I was when Dark souls 1 was released. This game is probably harder than the other ones but I'm still breezing through it with no problem. I guess that's what hundreds of hours of souls experience does for you.

homeless poster posted:i used all 5 of the starting cracked red eye orbs and i was very surprised to learn that evidently everyone plays this game with 2 buddy phantoms at all times. getting stomped 3v1 is whatever, but i am amazed that so many people prefer to roll through the game the first time with +2 people watching their back instead of digging through the dungeons on their own. i always felt like white phantoms were more frustrating than useful in ds1/ds2 because they were either people who already memorized the level and ran through flipping all the switches and killing everything for you, which completely removed all the challenge, or they were complete idiots that would just die immediately to the first monster that showed up. You are only invading people who have used an ember and a disproportionately large portion of those are people who coop since you need to be embered to summon.

turtlecrunch posted:I don't like hosts that don't open the shortcut before they start summoning for it. I found the path through the spear valley to be faster and pretty safe when you know how to do it. The tree boss is also optional so you don't have to beat it.

Megafunk posted:gently caress the run up to the abyssal watchers, a minute of just sprinting through scenery and then you either spend a few business days killing the ultra poised out dark knight dudes or sit on your rear end for a few minutes while they fight and then run past, hoping to not get utterly buttslammed by the spear spam. The fight itself is frustrating, but doable but the run up to it makes me want to just do something else. If there is a shortcut or something I am Interested. The run is really loving short already though. What bonfire are you using? Also, run to the boss from the right and not from in front of the door where the knights are.

Nuebot posted:So, lets talk builds for a second. Because mine is a mess, almost every level goes into VIT because I want to one hand a claymore and run around in shiny knight armor without thudding to the floor like a sack of potatoes. I've just barely managed to get my equip load below 70% for a mid roll and that's good enough for now. You can respec in this game so doing whatever with your build isn't really a problem.

I can clear pretty much all of High Wall without incident save for the big chunk of Lothric Knight pain right before his door, and then I've got nothing left for him. You should learn the true art of Dark souls: Running past every enemy. (also, open up a shortcut)

Charliegrs posted:So I had to buy Dark Souls 3 twice last night because I'm an idiot that thought maybe, just maybe, It would run ok on my old PC (Core i5 760, 4gb RAM, GTX 560) Nope, it was a total slideshow even at low settings and 720p. I updated my video drivers beforehand too. Its weird because my system runs Dark Souls 2 flawlessly and I didnt 3 think would be that big of a leap in graphical requirements. So I ended up buying it for Xbox One. Does anyone play 3 with an old system like I have? Dark souls 2 was made for PS3/360 and 3 is made for newer consoles, of course it's going to be massive increase.

Grizzled Patriarch posted:It's basically Artorias on crack, it's a brutal as hell fight and I have no idea anyone does it without a shield unless they are a grand master at dodging. Which means there's probably already a video of someone beating it as a level 1 deprived naked and two-handing the club. I found it easier without a shield since his attacks take too much of your stamina when you block.

Vince MechMahon posted:Lordric is the most bullshit boss I've ever seen. I woke up this morning thinking DS3 might be my game of the year already, and am going to bed never wanting to play it again. And the most bullshit part is that I know if loving summoning actually worked instead of just saying "unable to summon phantom" every loving time I try and get help I could do it. Unable to summon phantom usually means that someone else summoned him before you. Apparently there is a real shortage of phantoms compared to people who want to summon.

immortal flow posted:This is true, but why is the utilization so low across all 4 cores? It never breaks 80% on core 1 or 50% on the other cores, no matter the situation. Temperatures are fine too. I'm sitting here right now at 50 fps, with GPU and CPU nowhere near maxed out, which just shouldn't be happening. The game just isn't very good at using your CPU but is still CPU limited in most cases.
