Black Knight Greataxe? More like BLACK KNIGHT GOD-AXE.

Seriously, that thing is hilariously good.

Estoc/Dark Sword is no match for the hyper-armor and 3-shot kills.
The secret is out. I've been using the axe since I started PVP and I'm seeing it everywhere now. The hipster in me is dying a little.

Here's hoping sunlight sword stays irrelevant.

The password system removes level limitations, but does it also remove the item level restrictions?
Pretty sure it does. You just can't trade them a weapon that's above their item level tier

Sweet, so my friend who's just started can summon me, even though I'm lvl 100 in NG+

Yeah well ChaosMetalDragon traded me gear to a brand new character that just got to the very first bonfire after firelink, so it should be fine

Huh, some sections are reminiscent of the Hyrule Castle theme. Anyone else hear it?

Also, poise does absolutely nothing. Zip, ziltch, nada. It's turned off in the code, lmao.

Thanks, From.

Oh darn, no more havel mages.

Well, 1) Havel Mages weren't shit if you could locate your B button, 2) Havel Mages were only a thing because of Soul Memory

Twinked to hell and back, using almost all damage buffs in the game.

Everyone wondering what happened to Lemon. Apparently Boss kidnapped him and digitized him into Dark Souls somehow.

Any good strength weapons that can be buffed?

FUG is too heavy and got hit pretty hard by the nerf. Struggling to find anything with a higher AR than DSGA.

Big Boss · May 05, 2016, 04:39:58 PM

This isn't my guy, but I was helping people fight the Nameless King and the host's armor looked really nice in the cutscene so I took a screenshot

Greatsword all day every day.

ONe of these days i'm going to make a max level fastrolling Havelmage and name him "Chug Police" then have someone summon me as a Mad spirit during PvP sessions and fight clubs so I can kill people for chugging in duels

Bonewheel Barry · May 05, 2016, 11:52:14 PM

Tried a hybrid build, hex/dex.

Spoiler

It sucked massive balls.

Guess I'll just stick to my strength build...

I have. a +10 Greatsword I've been rotating, but DSGA has higher physical and a higher overall AR than GS even after buff.

Great axe has roughly the same AR after buff, but the range is horrible.

Can someone name me a good critical damage weapon that preferably scales with dex?
As much as I love pulling off weapon art ripostes with the Chaos Blade, it does laughable damage.

Big Boss · May 06, 2016, 10:06:16 AM

I'm going to try and make Jetstream Sam

Damn, I'm a PvP genius

What are your tricks in PvP? I tend to use the Great Chaos Fireball on a locked-on target, then use my genius fighter's brain to predict their movement, then un-lock and twist my character's body to that direction while looking up somewhat. If the opponent instead comes close to me, I un-lock and look down so that I throw it right at my feet.

This technique is really great with the Great Chaos Fireball, because the Great Chaos Fireball leaves a puddle of magma. I've also been able to use this against NPCs who are too far away to lock-on. It's difficult to actually hit them, but once you get the hang of it you'll be able to hit them from far away 3/5 times

Edit: I un-lock, because you just have to roll in order to avoid an attack. If I had the Chaos Bed Vestiges (I sold it without thinking) I'd be able to hit my targets 4/5 times, but oh well. Besides, the puddle of magma is really useful.... if only I could have both.
