Dark Souls III [Import OT] Kindle the fire, one last time

Hey, I have a big favor to ask people here.

I want to do a Gut's build. Not in the sense that I want to make it as close to guts visually as possible (in fact, I am going to avoid it in certain ways. For example, this guts build will be female)

However, I only want to do it if I have a good enough sword to do it with. So, can someone who has found them all please send me pictures of all the Great and Ultragreat Swords available in the game? I want to see what the design of everyone of them is so I can know if I should go for a Guts build or not.
 
Anybody that can help me find
Siegward
for the second time? Apparently he is in a
well
´but I have no clue where that is.

You get the guts inspired one in like the third area and it's an ultra great. Just like the one in DS 1 and 2. Don't think i'm anywhere near the end so i can't show you all of them :(
 
hell yeah just now tooled around in the settings and saw that you can set the HUD to auto...looove this for taking some screen shots. Hated how BB just had the on/off option.
 
I am beating my head against a wall here (literally) about a path I can see but can't for the life of me find the way to. It's in
the beginning of ice/borealis city, by the first three enemies. There's a gate to the left that says "doesn't open from this side" or something (playing JP). I can also see this area from above some way forward from there. I have tried absolutely every wall at this point. HOW?

I just want in there. And it'll probably be crap items, too, hah.
 
Thanks! So the whole point of this area was to lead me to a boss that doesn't do anything? 😨

Actually there's an
item you picked up there that you'll need later on

I'd like to know this as well.
Completely botched his quest on my playthrough, only saw him the one time.

I think I know what it is, thanks! I think I found a covenant that I can't access yet too.
 
Well I'm in the D
ungeon of Irithyll
and the game got way harder. Have a heavy great club +6, doing good damage but these enemies are just relentless, especially the
ones that brand you with a curse that lowers your max HP
combined with the
leech guys
. God damn. 2h rolling / no shield is proving pretty tough here.

I am very picky about what kind of weapon I use for this. I looked over the DS1 and DS2 weapons, and I only had a few I would have wanted to use for a Guts build. That's why I'm asking for pictures, I want to make sure that they look right.
 
Reaching the end now. I've been really enjoying the game but I have to admit not liking/aprisiating the first half ish of this game. I remember playing in back at pax prime and feeling the same way. Also, think the bosses have been slightly underwhelming mechanically up until
Pontiff
. Id have to think about it more, as early DS1 is the same. But i also think BB first areas are some of the best in the series, so why dosent it feel right now? I feel the game really starts at
boreal valley
and the areas and bosses ramp up hard in difficulty and visually.
the Cathedral and catabombs
are probley the worst areas. Especially the latter: BB chalice dungeons where better than that area. I'm I wrong? Watcha think.

I hate those enemies ;_;

Haha I know where this is going :p
 
Awesome, last night I lost my save file so started over, this time uploading to the cloud manually..now I can no longer connect to PSN WS-37397-9, Every console + 2 PCs cannot connect..Did they ban my network or something?
 
What weapons are people rocking?

I was Uchi but then I used a boss soul for the
hollow great sword and I'm loving that so far.

Can you one-hand the
Hollow Great Sword?
I'm using a Fire Uchigatana +2 right now(which I love), but the HGS looked tempting.

Best tactic, take it slow and single them out. When their torch is red, you get cursed, so wait until it goes blue if you can.

Sidenote: Ambushes in this game can be cheap as fuck. Enemies sometimes literally spawn into the world behind you in single entrance hallways.
 
Not being able to read item descriptions really hurts now. I found the
Crown of Dusk
(or thats what it seems to be) next to a white tree in the
swamp area

What's interesting is that there's a few murdered
DS1 mushrooms
right around the corner..
 
Hey after beating
yhorm
after immediately starting the next fight I homeward boned out of there as I didn't want to loose all those souls I got, and now I don't know how to get back there?

Did I accidentally stumble into a game ender?

I just lure one out, rush one and took the dmg. Already beaten
yhorm and moving towards the other area after killing pontiff. Bosses wise, I really enjoyed pontiff and the abyss watchers. Btw the area after pontiff has a covenant protecting the area right? Keep getting invaded by a lot of reds and blueish red(?)

Thanks all for watching! That was fun!

I googled that error code and working fixes included changing your routers mac address or using a VPN...Which would change your IP address. It seems like a IP address ban.

Seems that way, a lot of complaints on the @askplaystation about it..Do they ban people for buying games for other regions now? Had my US account for years and bought with no problem..3 days after buying something for the 1st time on my JP account and this happens.

I also have 0 emails for any of the accounts(checked spam) stating I was banned for any reason.
 
I dont know how to get to the flames to extinguish them in the swamp.. I see them but cant get to them.

At the base of the towers there's little flames on the walls you just interact with. Two are up hills and the last one is at ground level i think.

Anyone know where the earliest 100% physical shield is?

Pretty sure the knight starts with one and otherwise there's some that drop in the first post-intro area and one just sitting around. You can get a tower shield there too.

You are just the harbinger of good news arent you?

Is
Havel
back also?
At the very least his ring is.
 
This game has a lot of enemies that I kill as quickly as possible because I need to get the fuck rid of them because they creep me the fuck out.

I didn't see anyone talking about a banned account so it might just be a weird error or something. Do you have a dynamic IP address? You can force a change by turning your modem off completely, changing the MAC address of your router and then turning your modem back on.

At least 2 in the area after Firelink, 1 drops from the Knights, the other is on a corpse..but can't remember where.

From what I've read from people with my ISP/modem, you need to leave it off for 48hrs for it to reset the IPs. I can still play games and watch Netflix..so I think I'm going to wait and see til Tuesday..Easter weekend will be hell to deal with customer service for both Sony and Telstra.
 
Bacon youre tanking it up with gsword+shield right?

Anything better than
Havel armor / shield
in there or am I going to play the same characters and look for the third time in a row? :p
