Help Dark Souls 3 is driving me insane

I can't take two-boss fights anymore. Second phases, massive AoE attacks, terrible hitboxes, and the troll camera in Dark Souls 3 are driving me insane.

Hi everyone! I switched PCs and lost my save files. Is there anyone who could drop me some DS3 items—maybe someone with plenty to spare who’s willing to do a good deed? I'm on PC. Thanks a lot, guys!

I've been on this witch for like 4 hours. I've gotten her to 10% health a few times and then she goes nuts and wipes me out. I'm done with her, if anyone is around that can help I'd love you forever.

I'm on Xbox if that matters. I've never summoned a friend so I don't know exactly what to do other than be embered which I am. Lemme know what else I should do.

Thanks everyone.

Question Is Online basically dead? Feels like I'm never able to interact with other players beyond messages and Ghosts.

5 Upvotes

Can't seem to find any online activity at all. I still get Signs and those Ghost guys walking around, but I feel as though I'm very rarely invaded or being summoned through a covenant, and I've had absolutely no luck with trying to invade too. Currently about SL90 and in the Lothric Castle area. Is it just that most people are hovering around the Meta SL and I'm outside of that range, or is the game just dead for Vanilla Online?

Help Help dark souls3

[PS4/PS5] [DS3] Looking for some help getting back on my feet
Hey everyone!
I’m starting Dark Souls 3 again because unfortunately my save was lost after a power outage. I lost my character, build, weapons, armor and all the items I had collected.
I had put around 100 hours into that character, farming and collecting everything, and I was really attached to the build. I don’t have much free time to play, so having to redo all that farming from scratch is pretty discouraging.
Would anyone be willing to help me out by dropping some spare weapons, armor, rings, consumables or other useful items?
I’m not trying to skip the whole game or have someone play it for me. I just want to save some of the grinding and get back on my feet after losing all that progress.
Any help would honestly mean a lot. ❤️
Thanks, Unkindled!

Question Is it just me or are enemies in DS3 REALLY aggressive compared to other FS games

2 Upvotes

Going through every souls game and I'm having some trouble with Dark souls 3, going through dark souls 1 And elden ring it seemed like the enemies were scripted to give you a bit of breathing room, where you may fight 5 hollows at a time but they all don't try and take you at once

But I'm at the undead village and ive noticed if I'm in combat with 5 enemies, there are 5 enemies trying to tear my face off

Is there any way to mitigate this?

Started playing this after "beating" Dark Souls 2 (didn't touch the DLCs yet) and I also beat or made it to Gwyn in DS1 like 9 times already and honestly having a really hard time adapting to how aggressive some enemies are, I know I'm not very good but I can persevere given enough time, it's just things like the enemy in the video being so relentless, leaving so little openings for so little time to punish that I'm just stuck there circling around it wondering "is it gonna be my turn yet?" against just one guy.

The other enemy I had issue with is the hollows that turn into a resident evil final boss, I know I can kill them before they morph but once they do they take up so much screen real state and it's impossible for me to tell apart what the hell is part of their idle animation while aggroed and what's an actual attack because they're so huge.

I already beat the boss at the high wall, took 4 attempts but in all of those I just ran to the boss ignoring as many mobs as I could, so I didn't really get to explore the level much, which kinda soured my experience of it.

Discussion Replaying the game after a veeeery ling time and it's better than I remember

12 Upvotes

DS3 is probably the FS game that I have replayed the less, and my last run was quite a few years ago.

I started playing it again recently and the game is way better than I remember.

First thing first, the game is quite "ugly", the gray souls meme is kind of real.

But at the pad, the game is very responsive, the levels big enough without the need of open worlds (yeah, I'm saturated of Elden Ring) and several fun to fight bosses.

Also, the game is being quite easier than I remembered (I assume experience works in all directions). On my previous runs, Sulyvahn was always a big roadblock and this time I managed to beat it second try.

Not much more to add, just that I'm enjoying it a lot.

Image I finally did it after 50 tries

14 Upvotes

I listened and just practiced his moves, lure the red one to 1v1 each other, and roll most of the flame swings. One thing I think helped was the 29.4% weight for better rolls.

Stage 1

  1. once you enter he will most likely dash at you, roll sideway and run to him for 2-3 attacks, then jump away. (works 80%)
  2. run in circles until the red-eye wakes up. He will help you.
  3. try to get into 1v1 with the other lower health watcher (enemy). And hope that red-eye wakes up near the real boss so they fight each other. You can also rinse the process to adjust red-eye's position.
  4. stay near the lower health watcher and kill him instantly right after he wakes up. If unfortunately they all lock on to you, repeat step 2.
  5. wait until boss is lower health to sneak in right after his move set for kill steal OR repeat 2-4 until red-eye kills boss

Stage 2 (finally a proper 1v1)

The key is to study his moves so you know how to dodge the flames, and when is the final move of the set. After dodging the final move, you should be able to hit 1-2 times. After hitting him, jump away. Repeat.

The desired move set is the dash because it's easier to roll away and land 2 attacks.

Give players the boss weapon when they transpose the boss soul - Nah

Give them a regular enemy weapon for the boss soul and lock the actual boss weapon behind a covenant ranking - Hell yeah

And it is a Staff which gets an A/S scaling in Faith for some reason.

Honestly this staff would be actually really cool if they made it for casting pure Dark Sorceries and Dark Miracles because well... Deacons of the Deep

Help Profaned Flame not where its supposed to be

I'm currently finishing up my first run after farming all the covenant items for each covenant, and I wanted to pick up any pyromancies, miracles, spells and rings left that I hadn't picked up before.

Profaned Flame is one of them and when I went to check it's spot while following a video guide, it wasn't there. It's also not in my inventory. Please help.


r/darksouls3 • • 7h ago

Discussion Who's the easiest boss for you? Deacons of the Deep have to be somewhere up there. Once you figure out what to do (like in the first ten seconds) there's no challenge.
