Dark Souls 3

smh i'll re-log, and change p/w to JJBA, go back to bonfire until i reload

do you have cross region match making switched on? remember im using a japanese version for this so it can't be turned off

p/w is JJBA in caps, turn on cross-region match-making above the password setting, same spot

sure give me a sec

that was all the rings right

Yea got the trophy

Thanks man. Appreciate it. Wonder how fast the stamina would recover if i put all the cloranthy rings on?

no prob. you can't stack cloranthy  lol

best ring lineup is +2 cloranthy +2 favor and protection or w/e it's called in this game +2 hornet ring (unless it got nerfed, not been following DS news lately) and then the last one for you to play around with

probably not for your build though, don't know much about spell buffs and stuff in this game

even with the rings etc you won't get tons of concord drops unless they buffed the drop rate, but hopefully it will save you an hour or two, forgot to give you the mimic chest headpiece which also boosts item drop rate but that's more trouble than its worth IMO + its possible you have it anyway

Already have that mimic head.

Drop rate is still 1-2% but heard that if the item discovery is over 400 which it will be now for me then you can get 30 cords in 5 hours which sounds fantastic compared to 7 in 3 days.


The rings I really need are the pyromancy rings which i had and then the fire clutch one. Last is a free spot really so i'll use cloranthy +2

I was actually on a winning streak before. Won 7 pvp in a row. Getting good at combining fire + weapon now.

But pretty much done with PVP till DLC anyways. going to finish rest of the trophies now within days

Got 27 now lol

14 in about 3-4 hours compared to 7 in 3 days


I gave 27 at the prison tower and then realised i gave 4 to the other covenant accepting the same

oh well. 3 shouldnt be hard

got all 30 ffs.

now gonna start NG+

I dont think there is a way to get both the endings in one go since my 1st ending was end of flames. Could have combined that with the 1st ending but combining 1st ending with the NPC quest ending is tricky

Didn't want to do NG++ due to DLC.

hmmmm

you may be right, still might be possible if you back up your save before final boss, kill it and get ursurpation ending, reload, heal dark sigil at the firekeeper and get the link the first flame ending

think I did link the first flame first time and then the other two in my second playthrough

an easier way may be the progress through the game but don't go to the darkmoon tomb and take anri's dark sigil, because I think that's the key to unlocking the usurupation ending, so play with that ending in mind but don't absorb her dark sigil, beat final boss get flame ending, reload, absorb dark sigil from anri, get dark lord ending

Yea that might actually work.

Doing a speed run atm. Somehow went to an area where I didn't in the first playthough. Weird cause i swear i explored everywhere.

make two back-up saves tbh, once you beat pontiff make a save, cause at the very least if the other way doesnt work you can reload that save and save yourself half the game, then get the other ending on that

what area?

Near Lothric highwall. There was this passage where there was a dragon breathing fire. Never saw him or that passage before. Maybe I just went underneath without looking above.


you make those saves the same way you did with BB right?

I saved them to USB and to the cloud via PS+, up to you, but yeah

Read that its actually possible to get all 3 in one playthrough.

All i need to do is to give the eyes to the firekeeper but light the bonfire instead of summoning her. That should unlock the first ending.

Will still backup at like 3 different points

Yea realised that place was above farron keep. That dead dragon threw me off lol.

Arkdragon peak is ahead of Lothric Cathedral.


I like how all these places are linked together

ppl complaining how the game is too linear lol at least compared to other games

you should look at a map of dark souls 1 its the most intricately linked together world i've seen in an RPG lol, you can find shortcuts that skip ahead to late game areas and loop back to other areas its goat, one of the most praised parts of the series

DS2 next or break?

Thought BB was linked really well together. But it was my first soulborne game so i wasn't expecting it to be linked like that.


Not decided yet tbh. Might take a break and do some casual gaming or something for a while.

Can't believe how quick you progress once you know everything and you are OP.

Only died once and I am at pontiff lol. Didn't even care that I lost 1.8m souls.

Worth doing optional bosses in NG+?

nah

just get what you need for trophies

but yeah it's crazy how fast you can speedrun the games

first playthrough in dark souls 1 was 90 hrs, beat it in like 7 hrs one time, first playthrough in BB was about 25 hrs beat it in legit 90 minutes another, think I beat DS3 in about 4 hrs when skipping all the optional stuff

Fastest a guy did DS3 speedrun was in 34 minutes lol.


Got all the trophies now bar the endings. Should be done by tonight.

Also, NOW I am being summoned constantly as a blue. Got 5 cords in one summon as we smashed the invaders

Only using pyromancy as backup now. Gone full knight lol. Using Chaos Astora greatsword. Even beat pontiff with it in one go ffs.
