I beat Pontiff Sulyvahn with the Black Hand Gotthard summon on first try yesterday

I know it's not that impressive with a summon but it still feels so incredible good! I went in without knowing anything about his moveset, this fucking shadow clone or that wave attack.

Gotthard got killed at some point. Dodged around a lot so neither the original or the clone hit me. Killed the clone by accident, spend me last estus flask and then it was only me and Sulyvahn. He hit me, then we both had not much health left. He could have killed me with two hits but i dodged everything. I hit him two times, dodged again and then finally landed the final hit on him!

Thinking of a dual dex & Faith or Pyro build

So just reached start of cathedral after that mage boss & have enough souls saved up for three ascension points, have been dumping points into dex & health only ,also stamina, & thinking of going deep into faith or Pyro stat next because thought it could spice up gameplay. What do u guys think I should do? ,Saw pyromacers build play in game & they were cool with fireballs but thinking rationally thought in start to mid game those heal spells of faith build could be really useful. Let me know I am at a crossroad & can't seem to decide. I don't usually play games after I complete them so need a build which would be interesting start to mid game but also not make game too much hard😅. Just need opinion which would be best a hybrid dex/faith build or dex/pyromancer build.

What is even the point of most weapon arts?

What is the deal with weapon arts in Dark Souls 3? Most of them have a long animation that leaves you vulnerable, consume additional FP and stamina, have maybe slightly better range, and then proceed to do less damage than an R1 or L1. Now there are exceptions of course (Dragonslayer Greataxe and Frayed Blade come to mind) but I find most weapon arts to be comically bad. I find it kinda goofy that an attack that is more expensive does less or equsl damage and leaves you wide open for a counterhit.

Help sun bros christal chime build for pvp PLS ;0;

I have a question if soul level 140 is still possible to play with 120? Is 140 like 120 in pairing?

Anyway, I need a build for crystal chime, I like the lithning arrow, what else could I use with magic? Also, do I put rings on the rings that increase the damage of spells or miracles? In fact, almost no milgre works with a Christal Chime build, right? After all, there is no talisman poise, it is focused on PVP ONLY PVP

PLS, DON'T BE A CREIGHTON, BE A GREIRAT ;-;

IT'S TWO IN THE MORNING FOR ME I'M BEATING MY HEAD ABOUT THIS...PLEASE HELP ME

For which weapon/armor did you farm the most?

I farmed like crazy for the complete Darkwraith set. The sword took the longest to drop.

Is Carthus Curved Sword any good?

I’m looking for a good chaos weapon and the best ones I can find that I like are the curved great swords. The exile greatsword is way too heavy for me so I’m either going with murakumo or carthus. Murakumo seems like the better option just based in damage but I like that the carthus has bleed. I looked on the wiki so I know they both have equal scaling so which one should I pick?

Finished with first playthrough, and done all the preparations to the point where I only have the ending left. Here are some of the outfits I thought looked cool by the time I was done.

Tried to do a vaguely nun-ish outfit for the friede fight, but the headpiece that actually looks good on it is from the Ring knights, so RIP.

I really liked the millwood helmet, and wanted to use an armour set for it, that isn't just its own set. It doesn't really show with the lighting, but the drakeblood armour has similar-ish gold inlays, and the lothric knight trousers match the red cape with the red pants. The undead legion gauntlets have the leather armwraps, that hide that the armour's arm parts stop just after the elbows, not leaving uncovered gaps.

Usual black hand outfit, but I used the dancer leggings and gloves, as they were dark and sleek, and also used the evangelist hat, because the mask matches the gauntlets and leggings, and leans into the Zorro aesthetic a bit better.

A set in the style of most knight sets in the game, but predominantly black, with silver highlights. I just wanted something cool looking for the drang armour.

Darkmoon Knight. This outfit is a bit loose, with me often running the sunless headpiece, or cleric hat with it, or swapping the painting guardian leggings with the fire witch one, which gives a more dress-like skirt.

I frogot to cut this down properly, but I'm not going back to do it. The moment I saw the Morne set, I knew I wanted to do something with that helmet, and with all the armours in this game with the \"berzerker armour\" aesthetic (vaguely skeletal, black, beat to shit looking) I meant to make this look like a sort of \"Dragon fanatic pilgrim\" look, and the onyx' blade's black flame was the perfect accessory for the theme.

I was actually really proud of this one, and is probably my favourite of the bunch. The glory greatshield is only here to pose with the outfit, because the inlays match the armour. This getup was purely born from me wanting to give something to the iron dragonslayer helmet that I really like, because its own armour set is one of those fugly dollar store berzerker armour looking ones. In the end, I ended up using the Alva chest piece, and the undead legion leggings.

Does anyone know what the enemy is in the wall behind the Outrider Knight in Lothric Castle?

I was cheesing it with pestilent mist just now and I noticed that the mist was hitting an enemy in the wall behind and below the Outrider Knight.

It has a couple thousand HP, drops 4K souls, and respawns.

EDIT: It's actually one of the Pus of Man enemies in the moat. Mystery solved.

And who says invasions don't lead to friends along the way?

(Also, in the off-chance that "HOPE" sees this, am sorry about killing you. Host was desummoning you and by killing you I'd get my reward without needing to fight our friend.)

Sister Friede hatepost number 687

Sister Friede is one of the two bosses in DS3 I actively despise (the other one is Halflight). What's interesting is that I would love this boss if it for one move. Her ridiculous zero cooldown spammable backstep. I've seen her use it 4 times in a row in rapid succession. This fight would be ten times better if she couldn't use it after almost every attack. LADY YOU CAN OUTDAMAGE ME AND YOU HAVE THE THIRD HIGHEST HEALTH IN THE GAME STOP SPAMMING DODGE ALREADY. I've seen people spend 30 seconds without scoring a single hit, because she would not stop spamming her backstep. I was only able to beat her without Gael because ringed knight swords L1 poke could go catch up to her. I'd love this boss if it weren't for that.

Edit: I changed the post to be more accurate, Demon Prince has more health and Yhorm TECHNICALLY has more.
