Never really liked the Dark Souls series as a whole after coming off from Demon's Souls, but did started DS3 yesterday and yeah... everything seems a little off for me. I much prefer the more offensive playstyle of Bloodborne.

That said, DS3 does have a lot of nice qualities to it. Level design is top notch stuff as always.

Did a video on how to take out the Dancer of Boreal Valley. Host was SL20, and I was the sunbro phantom at SL25.

Was hoping to fight Vordt but so many ppl summon me to fight dancer. Don't they realize below SL 40 is underleveled vs dancer and even the wiki / Guides recommend above lvl 50 before taking him on.

Anyway, this fight requires lots of patience & discipline. Two of us were taking turns baiting him and swinging 2-3 times before backing off. Rinse and repeat and its easy.

Some douche took him down with the naked swordmaster npc summon at default SL... lol.

...And all he did was run around in circles.

Is anyone having issues with coop?
Tried for so long yesterday despite meeting the requirements, I simply cannot locate the summon sign of my friends. It just doesn't show up.

Yes yes, host ember form enabled, boss in area not defeated, blah blah blah, everything is correct. But then PVP in and invaders are ok, dafuq?

hmm.gif

Invaders can. But co-op can't. Since your friend not clear the area yet.

No, I was the host. I have not cleared the area boss yet and I was in ember form. So I couldn't summon my friend to help with the boss.

I guess ur using password matching? If no password mAtching then depends on ur level and weapon upgrades restrictions.

Assuming u r using password matching, make sure u turn matchmaking Option ON if ur both playing different regions (eg R1 and R3).

If that is fulfilled then choose a remote place to put the sign. Avoid bonfires and boss entrance. The algorithm I suspect FROM uses first is matching within levels before using password. So it can take up to 10-15 mins sometimes to match.

My SL 25 can't find summon sign of my friend who is SL125 at the church bonfire before pontiff boss fight. When I relocate to somewhere halfway within the boss at a corner of a shortcut, he appears within 10-15 seconds.

Ae bonfires can be quick for example at carthus catacombs and profaned capital (I suspect hardly any mp activity here) but popular spots like pontiff or vordt Etc can take some time.

Yes, was using password matching and also have matchmaking enabled.

I think you're right about the placement of the summon sign though, will have to try in some secluded random area later.

anybody suffering some bad framerates after 1.04 update. It definitely is very bad for me

Yes there are certainly some very erratic framerate drops in 1.04. FS needs to get their shit together.

Estoc is shield piercing so no point holding your shield up against estoc just rolll hahaha!

Not even using shield. It's impossible to roll away when 3 idiots spam the R1 button like their lifes depends on it.

Lol better than being ganked by 4 players who just roll at you with armor of thorns.

I use estoc myself. With knight slayers ring it breaks shields easily and leaves one open for riposte. 1v1 vs estoc still got chance but 3v1, hmmm

@bolded
yawn.gif no skill players are like that.

Yeah I know how good the Estoc is, it's a brilliant weapon, but not when I'm being ganked with it.

Thankfully, other than Estoc-wielding invaders, every other invasion has been filled with wannabe Gatts. Use Greatsword, chop one time then zero stamina. Man the idiocy in this game is unmatched.
