I really want to use deep sorcery for my first playthrough, but it seems to suck. I currently have Deep Soul and Great Deep Soul, but the damage is really really bad. My int and fai are both 30, I read that I should use the izalith catalyst but I don't have that. I have been using the Clerics Candlestick but I just got the Archdeacons staff if that's better.

Is anyone online to help me with vertebra shackle?? Is so boring i am at least 15h trying to farm all the 30 but I only have 14 with some help online

Yes, it's a mimic. Apparently, the person I'm playing with saw the mimic just standing there circling around while I only saw it in chest form.

Big fan of dark souls 3. Game beat the stuffing out of me. It influenced me so much that i am making a lothric knight costume gor Halloween. I am in the visual arts field and have been exploring generative AI image manipulation and movie creation and thought what better subject matter to do tests on than… dark souls 3! Anyways, hope you enjoy, had a bunch of laughs making this and learned a lot.

I'm working my way through NG++ and have a ton of extra Estus and Undead Bone Shards. The Shrine Handmaid doesn't seem to want them, so what can I do with them?

Thanks!

All in order

I just finished my first playthrough of DS3 with a Strength build, mainly using the FUGS and other heavy weapons. My favourite weapon ended up being Lorian’s Greatsword.

Now I’m thinking about my next build, but I’m not sure what to go for. I’m interested in a thrust/spear build using the Dragonslayer Swordspear, but I’d also like something fast with weapons like the Dancer’s Enchanted Swords.

What build would you recommend? I’m open to trying something different!

Pls help, i stuck with this guy for far too long. I accept my poor skill, so can you guys help?

Bonjour
Je recherche de l’aide pour platine DS3.
Je suis en NG+ et j’ai du mal à atteindre les objectifs des serments.
Est ce que quelqu’un peut m’aider à atteindre les différents rangs des serments ?

Merci beaucoup d’avance :)

So, for the past 2 days i have been trying to beat this pontiff man and failed miserably.

I didn't want to blame anything but it's too obvious to ignore. It's my skill and the fps of my laptop. I really enjoys playing this game but if i can't get going because this boss then I'm gonna loose it. If you guys willing to help, pls I'm going crazy.

So i try to beat this pontiff man for two days now but either method works for me. Maybe I'm just bad at this game but i really enjoy playing it. But since this pontiff man is a huge threat in my run, can you guys help? Summons or anything help (rather than fight him myself which is a mental for me)

I had been stuck at Midir for ages, and I had almost contemplated deleting the game but somehow we fucked the living shit out of it. So thank you so much for being there! This was really awesome!
And you sir are a badass!

I did a whole run with the great club and I heavily prefer it over any dex weapon and even most strength weapons. The requirements are low to use it, it is great for clearing out mobs unlike smaller weapons and very easily breaks shields, it staggers most bosses and is easy to land with due to range, its not super slow and it deals tons of damage. There may be some higher DPS weapons i dont know, but you can wield the club from start to finish no problem.

Has this happened to anyone? Pops

up when I attack? Know a fix? Thanks

played the game twice with strength, dex and faith (lightning) builds and if you disagree your wrong (joking).

I love Dark Souls. I've beaten the first one many times, the second one is my favorite. But I think the third one is by far my least favorite souls game, and I think part of that is because I can't get myself to play very far. I've only gotten slightly past Wolnir, which I know isn't that far but I couldn't play farther than that.

This isn't a rant either, Its a genuine issue for me.

I know mechanically, the third is superior to the first two, I'm not gonna act like the others were better. 3 had better and more fun weapons with more types and effects. It nailed that aspect, I just personally liked the first 2 better. But I think the tighter controls and faster combat actually make this one less enjoyable for me. The first two were clunky, and Dark Souls feels more like a game that embraces the clunk rather than being hindered by it.

The world isn't that engaging to me, I hate the way it looks. I know the lore reason for it, the universe is ending, and the game feels like it, and its just a bummer to explore. 1 and 2 felt better to me. 1 felt like a destroyed city, exploring it made you wonder how this place was before all this happened. 2 was an area at the start of falling apart. All the areas I was in were graveyards, swamps, a sick town. I don't wonder how it looked before this all happened because this is probably what it looked like.

The graphics are terrible, just flat out, I've played on both PC and PS4/5, and its abysmal to me. The screen is way too cluttered, there is way too much unnecessary detail that it makes my eye un-focus because of it. I never know where I'm supposed to look, everything is trying to pull my eyes away from what I need to look at. There doesn't need to be thirty gravestones in one little patch, there doesn't need to be unleveled cobblestone on the paths, it's just too much.

The art style and graphics clash, giving the game this unfocused look, like your eyes when you zone out, how everything blurs a bit. The entire game looks like that, its fuzzy and a pain.

1 and 2 handled its graphics much much better because it was simple. The textures were flat and when you looked at them closely you can see all the imperfections. But when you focused on the game, what your supposed to focus on, it all blended beautifully. You know what the area is supposed to be, it gave you all the information you needed and none of what you didn't.

I want to play this game, it's the only Dark Souls game I haven't beaten yet. But if I have to force myself to play it then its not worth playing. Is there anyone else who had a similar issue and found a way around it.

I'm playing dark souls 3 with someone who played the game and wanted me to experience ds3 and we've been doing co op for a while since the beginning of the game. I was choosing dex/faith, they chose strength. The mercenary gets sellsword twinblade which is what I chose. I was getting bodied hard in the beginning. Mobbed by enemies and the other player was telling me to use my shield and Block more. I disagreed because I was noticing the damage I was getting from sellsword. They told me that I was playing terribly and rolling and getting hit by everything and that I needed to git gud. They also mentioned I wasn't exploring enough. So I decided to comb for items. I decided to level up my stats and invest in dex and level up my weapon. They did the same for the great sword. We did so also to stop invaders. Now however I'm melting bosses and killing enemies so fast that the other player isn't able to get attacks in or is having a chance to play because the great sword is slower than my weapon. They're now saying that I cheated myself out of the experience of dark souls 3 by looking up the best weapon. They called me a scrub that doesn't appreciate the art or intended way to play dark souls 3. I overleveled they said. I'm level 70+ at the catacombs currently before boreal valley and i killed the carthus worm and old king fire demon.

I want to know everyone's thoughts on this.

Everybody wants to summon me but nobody wants to help with the fight. Also I have already killed Shira

Made a quick painting of my favorite bonfire in DS3. 4 hours procreate (ds3 is peak) \o/

Somebody what to help me agaist Gael?

Finally, every boss in dark souls 3 plus the dlcs, i have 2 dlc bosses to kill in ds2 and id have beaten all 3 games with all the bosses. I was wondering what game i should go next to, like not something like lies of p or anything, something similar to dark souls in the midieval souls vibe, would appreciate any recommendations. Also at what point can i call myself a souls vet? like ive also beaten elden ring so can i call myself one? just wonderin

"Oh, but OP, they're in different locations, have different lore, different stories, accessed different ways, and blah blah blah blah...." Shut up. They're the exact same thing.

Both have something to do with time (AoA is in the past, TRC is in the future)
Both have a super powerful human boss (AoA has Artorias, TRC has Gael)
Both have an ancient dragon boss (AoA has Kalameet, TRC has Midir)
Both have a boss that feels unrelated (AoA has Sanctuary Guardian, TRC has Demon Princes)
Both have Abyss (AoA is origin of The Abyss, TRC has Abyss swamp and Abyss lore)
Both are set in a long-lost city (AoA has Oolacile, TRC has TRC)
Both have a princess in it (AoA has Dusk, TRC has Fillianore)
Both end in the hardest boss of the game (AoA has Manus, TRC has Gael)

Am I wrong? Literally the same damn thing.

I’ve completed the game in new game ++, but I’m still missing the trophies for gestures,pyromancies and miracles. I’ve completely lost track of what I might still be missing. Need some help 😭
