I've given up on build dilemmas and I'm just going to be a dex-based pyromancer like I am every first run. I'm kind of worried my stats will end up spread really thin now that pyromancy scales with faith/int though

Harrow posted:I'm not super sure how strong pyromancy would be at 15/15, and you'd be missing the requirements for a few really good pyromancies. I think it's more important that you use the three pyromancy-enhancing rings than having the best possible scaling stats, so your low-requirement pyromancies should be able to hit pretty hard, but you're still missing out on things like this game's version of Forbidden Sun.

Also re the abyss jizz monsters, I'm not sure what I think of them, I find them really visually indistinct and... kind of lovely looking? Really hard to read their attacks and I don't know what's actually hitting me most of the time because the screen is just a mess of black goop. I've killed a couple and I feel like it's pure luck.

I'll try a frame limiter though, thanks; it's definitely not that I can barely run it, I can go at max with a perfect framerate. I'm using a GTX970, can I do that through the nvidia control panel or do I download a third party software?

im permabanned ashen one hollowstomper58. i first got the darksign when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of “souls” and tried to channel them constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like “seek souls” and “take nourishment from these sovereignless souls” in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing phantoms in the corners of my eyes etc, basically going hollow. im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of “insatiable hunger for souls” style of darksign bearers was all about; i think it’s the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who get the darksign to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a going hollow. peace.

Beeez posted:Thanks guys. It's not really about being broke or not as I have Gamefly, so if DS3 is the best for beginners then that's what I'd do, but otherwise I was thinking Dark Souls 1 seemed like a good start point. However, unless being a magic user is advised for a total beginner who doesn't usually play super hard games, I'm more inclined to devote a lot of my time to melee, I usually prefer that in games with magic acting supplementary.

I got summoned to help a dude with the Ducks of the Deep and he was frozen mid-toast and levitated through the fog door in toasting position. Me and the other phantom just had to sit on the outside of the fog door listening to the fight and occasionally stabbing an add that came up to see what all the fuss was about. woops

Is there any point in healing the Dark Sigil? It costs like 100k souls, I already made myself look normal with a Purging Stone and I killed Yuria for being creepy so I'm guessing that locked me out of whatever story path that was taking me down.

Fister Roboto posted:So what are those freaky looking skeletal dragon things floating in the air in Lothric Castle? The things that shoot at you while fighting the Dragonslayer Armor. I beat the game and haven't found any indication of what they are or what they're doing. dragonslayer armor soul calls them "Pilgrim Butterflies". imo they're the end result of the ppl turning into trees (as we see giants turning trees in DS2) on the High Wall. Butterfly implies a metamorphosis and combined with the extremely metal dying sun I think it suggests that the Age of Dark will lead to all hollows assuming their true form as insanely cool tree-dragons the sun is black because the age of fire is dying and the sun is an illusion that is succumbing to the deep sea. also it's the darksign

Harrow posted:What I'm not sure I understand yet about the story: 2. I think this cycle is definitely special - I think it's the closest the flame has come to ever going out, and it also seems that the cycles are getting shorter and shorter - 1000 years passed between Gwyn going into the Kiln and the time of DS1, whereas the last few Lords of Cinder have definitely been closer together than that. Also my interpretation of the Link the Fire ending is that it doesn't work - compare the kind of wimpy fire effect, your character's rather baffled reaction, the muted zoom away and the way your attention is drawn to the Darksign sun still being very present. You've maybe given the fire a spark of life, but it's not enough - just embers brought into being by an accursed undead that we've known all along was unfit to be cinder. 3. My impression is that they're former seekers of the First Flame, candidates who tried to Link the Fire and failed.

Oxxidation posted:The impression I got is that the Unkindled are the same as the Undead from previous games, it's just that the Undeads' souls have become so exhausted from the gradual degradation of the world that most of them are no longer fit to burn. So they were given a new name and a new purpose, to gather up the Lords of Cinder, who are the only entities left to provide adequate fuel for the First Flame.
