I can't believe how From still didn't manage to fix the almighty op phantom hit straight swords.

Hit detection in PvP is terrible.
Read the item descriptions of the covenant items and it will tell you what they do. They are related.
Way of blue is a covenant where you get protector summons to come and help when you get invaded. Blue Sentinels are the blue summons that come to help people in Way of the Blue.

It says regulation 1.06 but the Farron Covenant still doesn't work while I get tons of actiity there with the Red Orb.
50 hours in (!!) with K
felled, this is by far the most fun I've had with any Souls game. No shortage of difficult sections but never getting so stuck or faced with grinding (hello Bloodborne vials, and Dark Souls log forest grind loop). Really amazing. I hope I don't run into any major stopping points.
I feel like I should take a break though as I'm playing a lot, and it's so easy to keep playing.

has anyone found a good save editor? I usually use gamesave manager but they havent updated in a while and ds3 wasnt supported....at least last I checked?
edit : just checked and it works now...much better than fooling around with the saves in an unwieldy windows menu.

Not the sunken area with the knights, but the raised part right before that.
He only showed up on my first run, don't know what I did to get him there.
I knew I've been saving all of these special arrows and greatarrows all game for a reason. I literally just burned through every arrow I've picked up since the beginning of the game, as well as probably 70 standard arrows to kill
the dragons flanking the bridge in upper Lothric Castle. Thankfully just killing the one on the left killed BOTH of them. I didn't want to spend another 20 minutes lining up shots waiting for the dragon to remain still. I had 8 arrows left when the dragons finally died and have no idea what I'd have done if I ran out first.

Yeah. 24 faith here and my raw claymore is still way better than a blessed-infused one. WTF?
HP regen doesn't seem that good.
I'm trying to do a faith/str melee build (no pyros or hexes), using a big sword infused with blessed and miracles, but so far it's disappointing.
Even if raw is slightly better at AR, I wouldn't mind for the HP regen but it's really way, way stronger.
Anyone experimented with blessed gems to see if that infusion is worth a damn on a weapon? At 40 faith maybe? :S
What the fuck, that can't be right.
Speaking of those circlets, how do you even get more? I only ever had the one I started with. Never needed to use it, but now I guess it'd be good to know...
I just grab the save file from C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsIII and keep a bunch of them everytime I make progress and delete older ones as I get farther in the game.
Apparently it is since as soon as it happened I went and checked the wiki about how soft bans are handled. Even his friends he kept summoning probably got soft banned too. You get one Circlet and only one per character.

There was another way. Two in fact.

You quoted the wrong person, but... OK, thanks for the info. That's fucked if you get punished for DCing host...
That hasn't happened to me so far though, I had hosts DC on me as an Aldrich invader and nothing happened. :S

Don't worry, Bloodborne is a different beast (heh) because of the more aggressive playstyle (no shield, health regen) and the different 'parry' system. I think it's really just different strengths and I had a lot more trouble with BB.
The only 'rule' that I have is to lvl up the stat you're going to be scaling on the weapon. Check the broadsword scaling, if it's good on strength, keep at it. Or, otherwise, if you're leaning towards strength, you can infuse it with a Heavy Gem (pretty sure) and it should bump up the scaling on it. You don't need to reinforce it until a bit later, when titanite shards are much more plentiful.

To those using weapons with charging attacks in PvP, be careful because you can be parried at any point during your charge.

Just finished my first session with the game. Beat the first boss and got the
from that annoying dude near
. The first boss was pretty cool, although it took me a while to get used to his moveset. His swings come out a lot later than you'd expect given how long his windup is, and my fireballs made short work of his second form which seems weak to fire. I also used my fireballs to kill
, basically dancing around at enough of a distance from him to make him walk backwards slowly and then firing away.
I'm only an hour in but I'm pretty happy with my choice to roll Pyro already!

Heh. The real solution to that is cool, too bad you missed it.

Do tell me....? I also chased
the dragon
If you can get around to the back,
there's one of those Dark Slime Monsters like erupted out of Gundyr at the start, apparently controlling / reanimating the dead corpse of the dragon. You kill that and the dragon just fades.

Damn, I'm just too slow today. I was disappointed in the High Wall one though. No soul or anything for that? Also sad we don't get to straight up fight one of the

Shamelessly quoting myself until I get answers.

Can't help too much, but I am pretty certain you can get summoned into any location no matter where you are. I was summoned from an endgame area earlier tonight to the High Wall. So where you end up seems to depend on where the host is located. Level wise, I don't know myself.

Why would you not want to reinforce it? Do you like the moveset and can use it? Then spend the titnite, not much to really think about here. You'll get a lot bigger returns on your souls by upgrading weapons than you will on levels.

Sorcerers, help!
What should I use
's soul on?
?
If the spell is bad I'll go with the weapon 'cause it's just too tempting and that is
, you know...? But if the spell is really really good... ahhh!
What should I use
Oceiros
White Dragon Breath, or the Moonlight Greatsword
If the spell is bad I'll go with the weapon 'cause it's just too tempting and that is
just the classic Souls weapon

Upgrading equipment is much more important than levels. If you like using the broadsword (it's moveset, speed, attack length, etc.), by all means upgrade it! Every weapon is viable in DS.
Here's a little tip though after watching someone use broadsword as their main in a twitch stream: it's an absolute beast if you infuse it with a heavy gem (dunno if you can do that yet though) and reinforce it
If course, using a weapon you love using and are most comfortable with is the most important thing. Because again, every weapon is viable when you upgrade it and infuse it towards the scaling it's naturally good at.
I wouldn't worry about hoarding titanite for future weapons, you get a LOT of shards/large shards eventually, and the difference a weapon upgrade makes is very significant.

I didn't think the spell looked too hot:
https://youtu.be/xIpmSaE6oUY?t=743
The sword I ended up using for the end game, but at that point (and a little while before actually) I was so invested in spell casting I barely used it.
So I guess I'm saying they're both worthless in a way!
This was for PVE. A PVP perspective is probably very different.
MLGS is really good and gets boosted with magic clutch + dusk crown to go up to 600 AR at +5. it does comparable damage to equal STR/DEX stat investment other greatswords with the bonus of a stronger stance attack and the charged R2 shots doing a fuckton of damage (400~)
white dragon breath is still worse than great heavy magic missile

Where Can I buy it?
Not sure if it can be bought with certain ashes, but you can find one every once in a while by examing the giant tree outside firelink shrine, near the door you need the tower key for.
Morrigan Stark
Arrogant Smirk
Thanks for the responses everyone. This clinches it:
it is. Even if it's not that good, it seems decent at least, plus it's iconic as fuck, whereas I don't need another crappy disappointing spell.
Okay.
MLGS
To add to what Banzai said, it can't ever be bought, and it spawns by the giant tree after you have been invaded I don't know if its random or always. You can't farm it by using summoning signs either, I tried.
