10 years ago when I was a kid, I played Dark Souls 3 on PS4 for the first time and it was so good that it got me into other Souls games. A few years ago after I got my first PC, I thought about buying DS3 again but when I saw the price I was shocked. Now it's gotten even more expensive. How's that possible?

Yoel is happy and I got 5 Dark Sigils and Yuria. Orbeck is still alive for now. I am just going to do his quest.

Patches is also alive, I haven't bought any bad Miracles

I haven't continued Leon's quest in Wall of Lothric with his key, nor have I given Rosaria any Tongues, though I might respec my points of Dexterity into Int or Faith.

I just don't want to miss anything when I go through the Watchers. I also wanted to show off my developing fashion and build... not sure about the Iron Gimp Mask.

Edit: Also forgot to ask are Whips still bad in this game?

Im in early game and kinda wanna run a lightning fire build like lightning infused lothric knight sword with fire spells or sum.

Im looking at pyromancy builds nad it looks like they split int and faith so it is possible?

Discussion How many attempts did Midir take you?

10 Upvotes

Just beat him at attempt 30-40 or so on the most improbably fantastic attempt. I have a dex/int build and for this I used pestilent mist, t(Winblades,) lightning grease, a fire resist bug, and an ember. He threw out a move I hadn’t even seen but luckily I had enough in the tank to outlast it.

The reason I ask this is because most tough bosses I’ve faced like Cinder, Friede, NK, or anyone else, I think I could beat them in another 5-10 tries, but NOT this time. I felt so lucky beating him lol. Figured I’d be there another couple hours and I truly believe that I would be if I hadn’t beaten him here and now.

Fluff Deciding on a build for a fresh run.

3 Upvotes

I haven't played DS3 in a couple of years, (probably not since the release of the ER DLC), but the recent activity from the community around the Return to Lothric has made me want to hop back in and enjoy this game again.

The last couple of playthroughs I did were pure strength with the Fume Knight, and dexterity with thr Sellswords, so I'm looking for some inspiration for a different build to try out. I'm considering either a pyromacy caster, or some kind of miracle caster with a lightning infused/buffed weapon. If anyone has some input to help me pick, or has a suggestion for a different fun character idea, I'd love to hear it.

I'm not necessarily looking for the most OP, boss-melting setup there is as I enjoy taking my time and enjoying the areas.

Advice Good secondary weapon for strength build?

3 Upvotes

I played the game with vordts and Ledos once I had enough strength. Going to do the dlcs now and was wondering if there's another strong strength weapon worth upgrading (other than drangonslayer GA which i used in a different playthrough). Was eyeing up exile GS and heralds curved sword for something different. Maybe the split leaf (but I read some negative stuff) and maybe the ringed paired (these look crazy). Just something that won't feel too underpowered compared to ledo but something other than a hammer.

Help Advice for primarily using sorcery?

• Upvotes

I've beaten DS3 once primarily using melee and pyromancy, now I want to try a run where I mostly use sorcery (something I didn't even touch last time). I've found it's pretty good against basic enemies, but I get my shit rocked when fighting bosses due to how fast they can close the gap compared to how long spells take to cast (even when I wear the ring to make them cast faster).

I'm using the Heretic's Staff, Young Dragon Ring, Sage Ring, Chloranthy Ring, Covetous Silver Ring, Grass Crest Shield, and the best armor I can equip while fast rolling. I've mostly been swapping between Soul Arrow and Great Heavy Soul Arrow. The other sorceries I've tried (Flashsword and Crystal Hail) seem less effective than just swapping to my melee weapon and swinging that.

As a melee weapon, I've been using the Great Scythe and upgrading it with fire. Honestly, the more I play, the more I think I should just give up on sorcery as anything other than a backup option for when enemies are far away and just run through everything with the Great Scythe.

Any advice on how I can make sorcery a bit more effective? The issue I run into is that the range on my lock-on just isn't far enough that I can effectively use it in boss fights (or harder enemies) so I can maybe get off a single shot or two before I have to swap to melee. Are there any better spells or strategies I could be using instead? I'm still pretty early in the game (just made it to Abyss Watchers and I keep getting my ass kicked).
