Ps4... Should be back soon right?
Well...that sorta depends.
There's a Pilgrim using the Chameleon spell in the church. If you didn't kill them there, you'll find Anri's body later on behind an illusory wall. If you did, you'll find a summon sign near the next Lord of Cinder boss that you can use to co-op in Anri's world to kill a boss.
Just to be sure, you have the following cinders placed each on their respective throne:
Abyss Watchers, Yhorm the Giant, Aldrich Devourer of Gods and on the big throne in the middle the cinders of Prince Lothric

So is there an actual "best" or true ending or is it all a matter of taste here?

Yep. Season pass mentions 2 DLC. The first dlc should be release in the fall.
Wow, if this patch fixes the
glitch for

......both characters are called minimaximus.....hyper mode for two complete playthroughs (minus Iodex and
of course) here I come!!!!

Still largely up to interpretation, but the different endings have different degrees of tone, I guess. One ends on a rather somber tone. One on a middling. And one on a rather awesome end. (At least in my opinion)

Yeah I think I'm going to go hunt that down. The fact that it's a Katana, and depletes health is perfect for me as I had just perfected my Chikage build in Bloodborne before Ds3 came out.

I'll be right back.
This got me too. It was the P
rince's head
While I won't rule it out I don't think this is the case since it tries to summon, sometimes for a solid minute or two. After it fails the sign even reappears on the ground at times. :\

Man you had the Giant Dad in Dark Souls, Then the impossible to grind Monastery Scimitar in 2 and now you have the Estoc in 3. Why bother after that?
Fuck that duel-welding Katana, The Estoc is the PvP/PvE meta.

Had an odd glitch keep happening tonight. Every time I fast traveled, it would show me as having poison, curse, etc. for a second or two, then go away.

Curved swords pull their own weight too. And the dualwielding straightswords seem to work well for some. Hell, even curved ultra greatswords are pretty good.
Knightslayer's Ring is definitely a must for shield busting.

(Ending Spoilers obviously)
I'll first list the other endings for comparison.
1.) Link the fire. This is the ending you're told to do through a bit of the game. It's the easiest to get, and it ends the most depressingly once you think about it. You link the first fire to your soul, but there is little fanfare. You clearly haven't extended the age of fire for very long. You've done very little, things are unlikely to change from the hell that you've had to brave to get here.
2.) End of Fire. This is slightly better as it presents a hope at something different. It seems to imply that this whole situation s a cycle of trying to snuff the flame and trying to rekindle it, so in the end, it may not matter, but hey, maybe this time it's different and things go well.
3.) Usurp the Fire. This quest involves multiple quests and is the hardest of the three. Here, you take the first flame, and rather than trying to extend it or snuff it out, you take it for yourself and take that power. I felt it was implied, that instead of leaving it to chance or the cyclical bs that has been plaguing the Dark Souls world, you get the power to make the decision. You are now in control of the fate of this world and the inhabitants. You start the "True Age of Man." You also walk out of the place like a badass with people bowing to you as their savior.

i hear it has shit base damage though. The Scythe that has S scaling with dex is shitty as fuck in damage.

Server maintenance.
You must have some equipment that adds a little bit. If the weapon or armor is cursed, it will have a small status effect. The same thing happens when you put on rings that have status defenses.
Using a Hollow infusion will cause this to happen, for example.
Although, there was one time I remember where stats would show like that when I teleported to a new area. I can't remember if that was from weapons/armor.
Either way, check what you have equipped. One of those rings that has many stat defenses might cause that.

ameless King is finally down. I was determined to beat all DS3 bosses on my own this game. Took me 3 hours or so of playtime, and upgraded a couple weapons to try it. In the end I just had to stay back from him and bait his charge attacks.

You have any equipment that gives better resistance to that stuff? My wolf knight great shield does the same thing, but it's because it offers better resistance to those things.
Are you wearing a ring that changes your stats?

I guess if you base everything around dealing with the health issues then maybe it'll be viable but I rarely see katana users win in PvP.

Holy shit.
Should have tried this.
I see.
So then both weapons that S scale are shit. Fuck me why did I bother with a dex build...
It's pretty good actually, especially if infuse the regular Great Scythe with Hollow or Sharp. Bleed effect adds extra damage. There are curious ways to boost the damage.
Equipping a Hollow infused shield for example, will boost your luck. So a Hollow Infused Scythe maxed with a Maxed Hollow Shield and Dex and/or Strength rings gives good damage. Scythes work well in certain scenarios when you want to outrange most weapons. I've found it quite useful so far.
They're not shit at all, actually. You can make short work of the Boreal Dancer Knights without getting a scratch. They actually do good poise break damage too.
You can also get several more swings out of a stamina bar compared to Katanas and other weapons.
Sometimes doing the absolute most damage is not always the best tactic. If you can stunlock your enemy from a distance then you have a pretty good command of space.
