Personally i've really started to appreciate DS2 after i started doing PvP.I enjoyed every Dark Souls game but this one. I know some people liked it, but it never got remotely exciting.
Scholar for me and thank youAre you doing vanilla DS II or Scholar of the First sin? I actually preferred the vanilla one. Good luck !
Ultra Greatsword is ds2 easy mode!Anyone have any weapons suggestions for this ? Im thinking rapier/Santier's when I get it.
Scholar or ps3 version ? I think I like the scholarDS2 is secretly the best Souls game and remains my one sole platinum trophy on my psn account.
Build and equipment variety was awesome, new enemies in NG+, and the dlc zones are arguably the best in the entire series.
Adaptability was a crappy inclusion, but I really enjoyed the rest of the game.
I like Bloodborne more, but DS2 is my second favorite From title.
Scholar is great on pc. 4k, 60fps, reshade if You want. Good stuffI played through vanilla on my 360. When the ps4 version of Scholar came out I happily played it again for the plat.
I bought it on PC too, but haven't made a run through on that yet, but I'm about due!

I can do quality build too but dex is viable , rapier +10 is a God killer.Not unless you want to have a hard time.
Stick with slower, heavier weapons as they are massively more effective.
Start with Bastard Sword/Claymore* line, mix in a great club for blunt weak stuff (think its the large club that is secretly the best weapon in the game) and don't neglect ranged and magic.
DS2 is the only game in the series to favor weapons like this, but once you figure it out... everything else is second best.
*The important distinction is the heavy attack, one line has a broad lateral swing the other and overhead stepping slash. Which is better is situational, but its very helpful to have both.
I'm playing through Dark Souls 2: SOTFS right now and I've been really enjoying it. So far, I don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. I might even like it more than DS1. I do find that the game tries too hard to be hard though. I never found DS1 or Demon's Souls to be that difficult but this game is probably the hardest of the ones that I've played.
Ultra Greatsword is ds2 easy mode!
If you're gonna avoid PvP anyway go with Raw given the scaling attributes for the spear unless you plan on having 50+ int in which case leave Enchanted for later maybe.I think santier will make this so much easier since it’s unbreakable so that’s why I chose it , should I infuse it though ?
Yes ! The last time I played I made a hexer with Dark Crypt Blacksword and I loved it.Yo, hear me out - Dark. Crypt. Blacksword. Hexers in general are really fun in DS2 but this weapon completely dominates everything.
Except maybe Darklurker, fuck that guy.
I’ll be dreading iron keep the most I think , I have upgraded bow, so shrine of Amana will be easy and naw I’m skipping dlc.
playing online for now.Are you playing offline or online?
Do you get invaded often?playing online for now.
Dark souls does great hubs to catch a breather. Majula is probably the best. First one has a great campfire hangout setting, and the third one while lacking in design has "ashen one" voice actor that just sounds so cool. Never played Bloodborne I wonder if it's as goodI could stay in Majula forever. So peaceful
Only by stupid Forlorn.Do you get invaded often?
Bloodborne has the hunter's dream. But nothing really memorable. Bloodborne is an amazing game but the hub along with is forgettable. Nexus in Demon's Souls was awesome as well. But could be depressing as fuck also.Dark souls does great hubs to catch a breather. Majula is probably the best.

The dlc areas are some of the best in the entire series!
