So about the Deep and the DLC.....

Obviously the Ringed City in particular is heavily about the Deep, but I've never seen anyone mention a specific connection that occurred to me. The Deep, as i understand it and please correct me if wrong, is meant to be the sort of inevitable passive force compared to the Abyss actively trying to infect all life, yeah? You have the sun burning out, the Abyss infecting everything, and then the Deep is the rising tide that will inevitably swallow both, hence it's constantly compared to the ocean with a lot of water symbolism.

But the end of time where we fight Gael is the opposite, in a desert.
I just find that particularly interesting.

why does the game do this?

In the first half, I used the keyboard but in the second half I used my Xbox controller why does the game lag this much while using the controller (in the beginning of the game it was working well)

Dark lording ending as lvl 802

Loaded up my 802 save, going through a ng, just realized I couldn’t gain more level from the londor dude.

Can I still achieve the dark lord ending?

Sellsword twinblades infusion question

I am currently on my first playthrough and doing a dex/int build. I should note that I am really just focused on PVE.

I understand the general consensus for this build is that sellsword twinblades should be infused with sharp then buffed with CMW to maximize dps.

What I don't understand though, is why people are recommending sharp infusions even without buffing. Using the link below, even at very low levels of int, crystal infusion seems to outpace a sharp infusion (again, ignoring buffs).

So at 40/40 dex/int, +10 sellsword twinblades with crystal infusion does 438 total vs 362 for a sharp infusion.

At 40/19 dex/int (so even if I drop int all the way to 19) it still does 364 with a crystal gem vs 362 sharp!

What am I missing? Why would people be suggesting sharp infusion without buffs? If I plan to buff, sharp is still probably the way to go, but it seems like crystal is pretty legit for this weapon, even at low int levels.

But then if I were to pump int all the way to 60 (so 40/60 dex/int), I only get 15 more damage from 20 additional int points or 453 total. Does not seem worth it in this case.

If I'm planning to not buff that much (still undecided), is it better to go with crystal infusion? If I decide to pump int to 60, what would be the ideal approach?

I am currently using a +4 sharp uchi (and have the same question for this one), but I am basically at the point where I need to decide what to do and level up my weapon more.

I have reached Church of Yorshka my dudes

Took advice from yesterday and switched to Great Chaos Fire Orb (not pictured) and life got a lot easier. I mostly fought my way here but I did also take another bit of advice and ran like a little bitch a couple times. I regret nothing.

This is definitely one of my favorite areas of any souls or soulslike so far, I mean it’s a total dick but it’s so interesting. And who the shit told these fire popes they’re allowed to track you through walls? Imma kill ALL these jerks

And now im at the boss door and theres no summon sign. How tf are people meant to join this covenant. I saw someone saying the cage npc is supposed to teleport you somewhere and then someone else said there’s supposed to be a summon sign at the boss door… wtf?

Best mace and catalyst for a strength/faith build? (No DLCs)

I’ve started as cleric and I’m pretty new to this class/setup. All my previous builds in all the dark souls and demon souls games were based on a combination of Dex/Int.

Other than the weapons was asking for, any advice on stats distribution and smith upgrades will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Need help with Corvian Great Scythe build!

I'm planning on doing a run with the Corvian great scythe. It gets S scaling in dex, so wouldn't a pure dex build be the best? But if I also want to infuse it should I use resins or weapon buffs? And wouldn't weapon buffs mean I should put some points into faith too? Really any tips on the build would be appreciated, thanks! 😁

So about the Nameless King…

About a year ago I started ds3 after completing my first soulslike being Elden Ring where I had all achievements. When I came across the Nameless King which I heard was the hardest boss I the game, I beat it in less than 20 tries. Was it really that hard for you guys or did Elden ring prepared me too well for ds3?
