Dark Souls 3: Prepare to Die Once More

I can’t be the only one who thought the old bosses in the trailer are placeholders.

I want to try and figure out where the entrance to the DLC will be, it has to be Irithyll but where in Irithyll?

It’s probably the Cathedral of the Deep, that’s where that dude is praying in the trailer

Looks too far tailored to the Painted World to be there, and the location also being rained over with ash/snow is a link to Irithyll

No, I’m specifically talking about the NPC that’s kneeling in a cathedral looking place, who hands a scrape of paper or canvas or something to the player character. Also, the painted world does have connection to the Cathedral through Aldritch.

Also, remember none of the DLCs are actually physically linked to the locations you access them from in past games. You always just end up teleporting there.

Wonder if the NPC directly takes us there or gives us the item to access the DLC. Probably the latter? I’m just wondering what level range the DLC will be.

Any of you guys got any recommendations for YouTube channels that primarily post good Dark Souls content?

Been listening to Vaati’s videos at work lately but, I can only hear the same information so many times.

Epicnamebro and dienoob are the two I follow for darks souls content.

PvP trailer. Looks like 3v3 is happening. :party:

I feel like starting a new char and going through it blindly again in time for the DLC.

So hype again.

With the DLC upon us, I decided to start up a new character. The Onyx Blade looks pretty dope, but it scales with Int/Faith. I want to make a melee oriented build for endgame PvP, but I have no idea how to go about it. Anyone got any tips/guides?

It will be hard to create a build for any DLC weapon without seeing it’s minimum requirements and the scaling. For instance we have things like the Gargoyle Flame Spear and Demon Greataxe that scale with int/fth but do near exact damage with a 40/40 at Base int/fth requirements

There’s already been some preview videos out of some of the DLC weapons, including their minimum requirements and scaling (although not max level scaling).

Max level is what you need to see, and then the differences between stat allocation/damage output.

Unless you don’t care about min/max in which case just make a 30/30 int/fth build with minimum requirements for the weapon

Considering the Onyx Blade scales with Int/Faith, it doesn’t really matter what the max scaling is going to be since those are the stats it scales best with anyways. I’ll have to see how heavy I want to invest into maxing its AR, but I want to see if I can focus more on melee than anything else.

Max is streaming the DLC, he got approval from Namco. https://www.twitch.tv/maximilian_dood

Weapon spoilers is about as far as I’ll go. Waiting to see the DLC for myself when I can.

I’m pretty much on black out. Don’t want to know much of anything till it’s in my hands.

TONIGHT.

I’ll be on a little before it goes active at 9PM

Also, just in case anyone gets lost, to get to the DLC, you just talk to a new NPC in the Cathedral of the Deep’s first bonfire.

DLC out tonight huh? I won’t be able to scoop it till Friday.
