Dark souls 3 The Ringed City - Arena PvP Impressions
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- In this video we explore the second DLC of Dark Souls 3 -- The Ringed City. With my time at Namco I played through much of the Ringed City DLC, fought a new boss, and tried many new weapons and miracles. But the majority of my time with the DLC was spent in the new arena matchmaking and PvP modes of team and brawl battles.
In this video we’re strictly going to take a look at arena PvP and the weapons and miracles showcased at the event. It should be noted that there’s more weapons and spells in The Ringed City than were shown.
The weapons and miracles showcased were; Lothric Banner, Ringed Knight Straight Sword, Dragonhead Shield, Projected Heal and Lightning Arrow.
This video is based on early footage of Dark Souls 3 gameplay the Ringed City DLC from a Bandai Namco event on March 15, 2017. At the event I was allowed to play the first several hours of the DLC, but this video primarily covers the new PvP arena modes of Brawl and Team battles.

there should be a 3v1 mode to represent the invasions in this game
So my typical match as a Spear of the Church?
THE GREATSHIELD REQUIRES 45 STRENGTH AND NOTHING ELSE YOUR WELCOME
RIP sl 25-40 PvP - the best DS3 PvP
Soul Of Cinder holding a teddy bear with a Santa hat is the best.
the ringed knight straight sword seems to give you the combo moveset of the soul of cinder
Why not just give us all AK47s and jump packs.. call of souls.
Johnny Blaze Call of Souls Infinite Embers 😂
Johnny Blaze Call of duty: infinite Soulfare
Nice to see that the confirmed 4 hit combo doesn't do a lot of damage and is more to attack crowds.
I know the video quality of the streamed sections is trash but if you look closely when I'm talking about it locking you in for so many hits, during that clip I only had one hit left (or less) and I took him from full health to dead in a 6-hit combo. That's why everyone was freaking out. So the 6-hit does just shy of 1200 dmg, the 4-hit does somewhere in the range of high 700s. It's pretty powerful for a fast-swinging straight sword.
TerraMantis Shame that it uses FP, as it's sorta like Friedes scythe in its speed but Friede's didn't use FP for its combo.
The weapon art at least has got to be parriable right? It'd be stupid if it wasn't.
Only the first swing of specifically the weapon art can be parried, if you're hit by the first swing of the weapon art then you're locked in for 3 additional hits.
TerraMantis Oh boy...people are gonna have a field day with this one.
Yeah... lol
I can already see the dark sword+fallen knight Guts cosplays with a dose of R1 spam.
only casuals falls for r1 spamming.
Sundowner Can't lay a finger on you though!
no match for the invincible man
I am fucking invincible!
I hope the PVE is good as well, PVP looks really cool though I can't wait.
Idk if you answer comments, but can you group up with a friend for 2v2 matches? Thats my biggest wish.
ysebyy yes
+ysebyy Yes. It's very easy. You can even group up in larger groups and then choose who wants to be on what team. For example, if you had a group of 4 friends and say player #1 & player #4 wanted to be on the same team then they could choose to be on the preferred team within the same group other than player 2 & 3. Hope that makes sense.
ysebyy same here mate. Just wanna play this with one or two friends 2v2 or 3v3 versus strangers
But can you play with a friend vs randoms? Like just co-op duel vs some other duos/randoms?
cant wait! i hope the dlc ends satisfyingly
oh and does the dlc go out of the kiln looking area, and into somewhere like londor?
Yes... ish.
Yes.
TerraMantis also is there more than two bosses? thanks for replying quickly!
I mean... technically yes. But I have not finished the DLC yet. I can't answer that.
TerraMantis wait... You've played it all?!
cool! one thing though, what are the weapon stats? :p
The new straight sword looks like it handles similar to Ludwig's Holy Blade in Bloodborne. Is that accurate or is it something completely different?
I know about that. I was wondering more on it's use. A straight sword that has a weapon art that turns it into a fast greatsword with great combos.
I hope there are good faith spells
No Ron
Double tower shield door blocking?
since that projected heal is like emit force, does that mean we will see more Catarina theme items?
tallguy7890giant I want to know how you will even target allies with it, will we have to try to free aim the floor?
James Lovell since the spell has an aoe it really shouldn't be that hard to hit an ally with it.
is the ring city the kiln of the first Flame?
Hey Steve, were you able to use the aquamarine dagger at all or were you not allowed to use it for the pvp demo, also what weapon would you say is your favorite with the arrival of this DLC?
+Jeiku Iraisan
From what I used in the demo the Ringed Knight straight sword is definitely my favorite weapon. As for the aquamarine dagger, I was not able to use it in the PvP session but I was able to use in PvE. It's basically like a dagger that when its weapon art is performed turns into a Rapier. That's about it.
TerraMantis ok, I was a bit curious about the aquamarine dagger and how it's weapon art reminds me of the ivory straight sword from dark souls 2, also my favorite weapon I saw was definitely the ringed knight straight sword too ^^ I personally can't wait for this DLC to drop XD also if rumors of there being a dragon covenant in this DLC are true, then oh my god from software, take my money! XD
I know I'm late, but I have a question. See, I bought DS3 on release day, and it was awesome, however, I didn't have PS+. I realise now that both of the last DLC's for the last DS game are released, so I was wondering, is it worth it to buy both DLC's - Ashes of Ariandel and The Ringed City, for €30, AND to buy a 3 month PS+ For the PVP? Is the game still alive?
yes it is, at level 120, if you play with any other level you won't find anyone on the arena so...
since u said u played alot of the actual dlc my question is does it have more content then the previous dlc and is it worth it
Worth is completely subjective. To me it's worth it just for that Ringed Knight Straight Sword. I have no idea what would constitute worth you.
Beside that though, yes, The Ringed City is larger than Ashes of Ariandel. It also has a much higher degree of difficulty.
Wait, so the new maps are added to anyone who has a dlc, but if to access the arena you need the champion's bones, will you be able to play in the arena with only the 2nd dlc or you'll have to buy it?
i guess there will be like another copy of the champions bones in the ringed city.
Marc Sales Valdés nope,if u have only the second u still gain access to the maps
AverageSoul you can get access to the maps but you can't unlock the arena without the bones, how does that work?
Marc Sales Valdés We don't know how yet, but Namco said players who buy only the second DLC will still have a way to unlock he arena.
So how does the new Orma and Reevs stack up i wanna smash my enemies into my walls
as they collapse i'll tell them "Hold the door"
HODOR!!!
It's pretty fantastic. I think people are going to be complaining about how over-powered it is in no time.
Cool I used to love Orma and Reevs in Dark souls 2 and i was super disappointed when it wasn't in Dark souls 3 as well as my favorite set of armor Steel set although my second favorite set is in dark souls 3 and with the fire witch set coming out i can use the hood with my armor just like dark souls 2
And it seems that Giant door can do what orma and reevs couldn't for some reason (putting the shields together to block) i can't find allot of footage for it and would like to know how viable it is like how strong is the guard for teammates can damage pass through it to your allies in any way via Great weapons or magic spells ?
how does it stack up to boss heavy hits too do bosses get caught on the door or do they pass through
do you roll back upon taking a super heavy hit(like the other great shields) or do you stand still without budging holding the boss back
sorry for the barrage of questions but this shield is the most fascinating to me as someone who beat the game the first time two handing a Greatshield
you played without lag...
+IAMA34
Amazing, I know.
From the patch notes:
Shortened attack window of Carthus Curved Sword and Dark Sword, Gargoyle Flame Hammer and Follower Sabre
steamcommunity.com/games/374320/announcements/detail/261612552478282575
GonthorianDX Now all we need is the Mask of the Father.
Also they buff the defense given by heavy armor. guess the casuals complaining about better armor not doing much (except it does) could stop complaining then.
Havel is still the equivalent of wet paper in real life.
Can you tell me how we will be able to access the 2nd dlc? Cuz if we do need to have the flame usurper ending then i'm screwed.
La Pucelle They wouldn't lock payed content being a specific ending in the game, not to be prick but use common sense please
Yeah I understand that, but in terms of setting it does feel like it might make the most sense with that particular ending. Then again it could just be the same with Ariandel with slightly different dialogue. I just wanted to make sure though.
It's not locked behind any particular ending. I can't say much beyond the fact that you use a different banner at the gargoyles after Vordt and they fly you to the new location.
That in itself is a lot of info since no one else mentions anything about how to access it. Thanks for taking the time to comment back Terra. Love your vids and keep up the great work.
Terra is there many new weapons and sets of armour?
"Many" is such an arbitrary or subjective term, I have no idea what "many" would mean from one person to the next. I can tell you The Ringed City adds more (in basically every respect) than Ashes of Ariandel.
Perhaps refer to; would a fashion souls player be happy? And/or perhaps have more than 10 new armours to mess with?
Are there some good new pyromancies? Show us some love Bandai ᗒ ͟ʖᗕ
Yeah, there's some new pyromancies.
Hell yeah!
why don't they do this for bloodborne??
Hi Steve
Hi David
Steve, Portillos misses you....
well, your wallet at least
+ErgothGaming Fillername
I'm hungry, they could take my money right now.
4 stagger hits? looks balanced.
Will they ever fix the poise in this game? staggering with full armour after getting hit by a one handed straight sword is ridiculous
nice bait
Apperently Facts are baits not, lmao.
Fucking weebs I swear
nice bait
please don't be serious.
They did fix it go back to for honor lol, jk
So you can't play PvP with just the basic game? You need either or both DLC?
Soooo...... weapon stats.....
hey terramantis ! I've been doing soulsborne content for about a month now and I love it ! Would you consider checking one of my videos out ? A critique from someone who has done ds content for that long would be amazing !
Is the dlc really that short as I heard?
Yes
Noble I think it has 4 or 5 bosses, probably only 4.
probably only 2, in cheat engine you can only see 2 new boss souls. Though Fromsoft has already said its gonna be longer than ashes of ariandel.
that's a lie lol they found 4 bosses
If so then im hyped as fuck
Phantom range is the dumbest and most annoying shit ever in PvP.
The Daedra At least it affects a small number of weapons, then again phantom range is not gonna mean insta-win so there's that.
There can never be true competitive PvP in Dark Souls, not unless it's over LAN and there's some form of anti-cheat or game master included.
Dark Souls 3 is literally one of the easiest games when it comes to cheating and hacking. Ever.
And Peer to Peer connection for PvP? Look at Rainbow Six Siege or For Honor. Or even DS3, for that matter! I live in Europe and my 100Mbps internet connection is literally useless when I join some guy on a 3G network on Zimbabwe or wherever when he happens to be the host. Not to mention the host always has an advantage, no matter the connection.
Sure, pretty stoked about the new DLC stuff, but competitive matches in DS3? There's so many reasons why it can't work in the current condition, not even starting on the weapon balance and so on. Just not a thing that'll happen.
oh i fell asleep som1 said 💩💩💩💩💩💩3 got another dlc im figu......😴😴😴😴
?
Um... The Brawl and team battles have always been here....
And passwords were there as well. So uhh. Yeah... Not new.
With that out of the way, Straight sword.... Ringed Knight SS = Atomic Gankspank 2000
You can now use a password to match with people just for your team, which you weren't able to do before. It's handy for teaming up with friends
Ivan Navarro Yeah that's true, I just don't remember hearing him say that in particular, only that there was a password function added
Did you really have to explain the two new modes? These were introduced all the way back in October.
Ready your parry shields everybody, because spam is coming back.
One word: Awe Some.
huh.....
the arena should've been a free update so that people without the dlc could enjoy some pvp or it should've been there from the start of dark souls 3 like they did with the dark souls 2 arena I feel like this is a way for miyazaki to make more money by removing certain things it had in the last game and adding those things in with dlc
okke faber if they really cared about the games Pvp, they would buy the DLC. If not forget he arena, but for the weapons alone.
soooooooo ready
If you are still answering, what build is that? I wonder how much damage you can squeeze out of lightning bow at 60 faith.
The builds were preset when we got there. Character stats were extremely rounded so we could wield/cast everything. We were definitely not min-maxed at all. As for the Lightning Bow damage, I don't know the answer to that. If I remember correctly our characters were either 150 or 165... I don't remember exactly.
Hope that helps some =/
#MakeMagicGreatAgain
"first several hours"? Pls tell me this DLC is at least 6 hour-long
Like any Souls game, if you know exactly where to go, how to run past specific enemies, how to fight every boss, what build or equipment to wear... then you're going to blow through it in 20 minutes. But yes, I'd say it will take at least 4-5 hours to complete based on my time with it for an average player not looking up guides. I think a ton of people are going to be stuck in the first area for a long time without a guide.
TerraMantis Gut response
those new door shields look dope
also my fellow steve,how do u enter it?
+AverageSoul how do you enter what? The dragon? The doors?
Nah I'm messing with ya. The new Undead arena is an option at the bonfire menu. I don't know if it's any bonfire or just The Firelink Shrine.
can you parry the stance on the new straight sword?
oNyX Hades Yes
ovasquezg23 thank god
+oNyX Hades
You can only parry the weapon art's first swing, if you miss that you're locked in for an additional 3 hits.
Basically the same rolling fest with annoying stagger with new goofy anime stuff.
Dont forget the fucking lag.
History Repeats What? the lag in ds3 isn't worse than the other souls games.
Oh look, its not worse, Im so glad!
Its still there and its bad.
i hope you do realize it's not that easy making lag inevidable? there will always be alot of players having shitty internet, though of the souls games ds3 has the best netcode.
I do, its their 5th game in series and "its not worse"! Great.
A four combo guaranteed straight sword that can follow up with a more or less guaranteed charged R2 and another R1? Nah fam, I'm cool, I'll just wait out the time till Nioh's PvP comes out so I can have PvP that is actually fun and not cancerous. *I know I am probably going to eat my words when it comes out and is polluted by kusurigama and duel katana users but I don't care, DS3 PvP still fails in my eyes when they implement bullshit like this.*
D3th10rd nioh pvp balanced? remember the living weapon broken build
Xephonix 450 currently, yes, but that is because they are all the same stats, possibly at minimum requirements. Taking into consideration a red tear stone ring plus morion blade, in addition to a person built for it, there are two ways this weapon is going, it is either going to be everywhere and overpowered, or going to be rare because everyone knows how to counter it. And let's be honest, the last thing we needed was another straight sword spam, and with how broken DS3 is with hitboxes, "If it connect" isn't a question, it will connect whether you are in their face or on the other side of the arena thanks to poor server quality that after 4 games they still can't get to work properly nor are they capable of taking care of the endless list of hackers out there, or the fact that you could be cornered by about 3 or 4 people using that 4 hit, and you will just be there with all you can do is panic roll to get out.
Did they learn nothing from Frieda Scythe or Dark Sword? Giving one person that much power is fine and all but considering they might grab people who will also be using this weapon, can summon up to 3 people plus a blue sentinel, and you got yourself an even worse invading experience. FromSoft has forsaken the art of invasions and has turned into a brawl game like For Honor but with a decent story and shittier combat system.
I just want someone do to PvP and Invasions correctly for once, and the best we have gotten was Dark Souls 2. All I can really do at this point is pray for Nioh to not fail me like every other soulsy game has when it comes to PvP. Let It Die wasn't all too bad about it but there was a lot to be desired.
Can't wait for the pvp. Pve is already fun as fuck.
Nioh pvp will propably be similiar to bloodborne but with more controll and Combos.
Wow, all swearing and no argument. Grow up. :)
did retromurdok delet his comment? Lmao first swearing then disappearing. What a big boy
