@Captain_Morgan So in other words, it works on most DkS1 players because it's almost entirely consisting of noobs at this point since none of the vets want to stay in that game.
The life hunt scythe is absolutely my favorite weapon in all of the souls games, and pairing it with Priscillas dagger is even more fun. Hope they bring them back in a new game some day.
Man... I miss the old days when there felt like there was a tight community in Souls. Or at least personalities like Oro and Peeve. Felt like that disappeared with Dark Souls III
@@invisiblefiddle1645 Yessir was thinking of them as well, albeit moreso Jerp. Martyrs was a good balance between meta and having fun, if that makes sense. Would love to get some ER videos from him heh
@@heliodorespecht6083 Yeah, I'm getting that sense too. And I enjoyed the learning process with Dark Souls III streamers and watching Peeve, Yukas, Oro etc. get excited over new things before sorta falling out of it. And I know that was a while ago, but I really just don't remember many of these dudes having the most fun with it. It didn't even feel like a series burnout type thing as much as simply not enjoying the game's systems as much as Dark Souls. I've mostly just been watching ChaseTheBro these last couple years since his streams are fun, but I miss the comradery of the OGs. Maybe it's just me and how I've involved myself in the community. Dark Souls III turned into a bit of a crapshoot for me pretty early on tbh Just been trudging along with it ever since and not really enjoying it. Either way - seriously looking forward to ER
This is always going to be my favorite content. Thank you so much for all the good vibes man, I'll always be a fan. Also I promise I wasn't trolling when I asked you to say shark pog.
I'm glad people still play this game, and I am very excited for Elden Ring. I can't wait for a new generation of players for me to steal humanity from.
The regular sorcerers catylist has the highest adj from 27-40 int aside from Manus and TCC both of which half your castings. Logan's is best after 40 int though. Catylists and magic in general is kinda jank in this game.
@@Victor-Soria true. Must not have had any boosts like bellowing or dusk crown. I'm not big into intelligence builds too boring in pve and in pvp all spells were easily avoidable unless lag was involved.
@goggles789 he got hit by the spear and then gets hit by it again almost 20 seconds later. who would've thought the catalyst you get at the start of the game would be bad
If the old dark souls pvp youtube squad sticks with Elden Ring I'll be so happy. I was a big fan of Scott and didn't start playing souls until right when everyone quit. I havnt pvped in a very long time but might get back into it for ER.
obobobobo using my favorite weapon, what a day the heavy attack is also pretty good... but the normal light attacks leave something to be desired imo also if you wear heavier knight-like armor, your bleed meter will fill up a lot slower... i use a mix of elite knight on my build also has some poise so pokes dont stagger me to death
It seems like there's no lag stab or people teleporting a bit. Why do when I play I have people in front of me just warping time and backstabbing me? Teach me master.
The weapon is likely barely upgraded or not upgraded at all, since it's actually a pretty decent weapon albeit comes with absurdly jank stat requirements.
I'm new to dark souls pvp so this is a genuine question: how come some of these guys do so little damage to Oroboro, even though he doesn't seem to be wearing very heavy armor?
I can't tell you the exact reason but here are my guesses: -Armor upgrades. You can upgrade your armor to increase the stats, actually without influencing matchmaking. -PvP build vs PvE builds. Dedicated PvP builds normally have a huge chunk of health, since backstabs will happen and deal quite alot of damage. Surviving is key. -Progression. Given Oro's upgrade level is at +15, he can invade down to +10. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it can make a fifth of your AR (just checked on a claymore build). Also they are propably using an inoptimal weapon path (chaos and crystal are about the strongest, they propably use standard). -Humanity. Soft humanity increases Defense capping at 99 (maximum there is). Normal players propably don't carry as much, propably the only people who do this are PvP'ers out for a fight. Hope I could help [T]/
Those first guys fishing that hard are annoying. I remember trying to not play cheap and go for backstabs only like you did only to get rewarded by people fishing like those guys. Then you know, it's free real estate of backstabs after that
Man, Fuck Remastered. How could they inadvertently nerf scythes (my favorite weapon type) by getting rid of dead-angles, but not getting rid of backstab chaining :(
They're parriable in DS1 and DS3. In DS2 they technically are but Reaper and Halberd class weapons can only be parried on the sweet spot, which makes parrying them a risk because only good players will reliably hit on the sweet spot but good players will also read and actively counter parry attempts.
I remember getting destroyed by Oro once or twice back in the day. I had no idea what I was doing but I at least tried to fight honorably. Each time I got wrecked I learned something though
Why is the damage so skewed in this video? The crystal magic and katanas barely did anything to you and youre in lighter armor, but you were reliably 2-4 shotting most players with a scythe, which do respectable damage but are not the highest DPS weapons out there, especially since the gimmick with that scythe is the 500 bleed counter instead of the usual ~300. Some of these areas were late game as well like Izalith or Oolacile. These players should have mostly maxed gear, why were they doing so little and most of them having less than 1000 health. Is Darksouls pvp just filled with newer players or is my memory of how darksouls pvp used to be clouding how it is now? I remember the 800 damage chaos katanas, and the 1000 damage chaos zwei combos, or the 2000 damage instant backstab/parry cheese build and oh god the buffs needed for every dumb fight. What happened
As Envenomed mentioned he has 99 humanity which alone makes someone incredibly durable. Additionally, the scythe would occasionally bleed proc, and Lifehunt alongside Priscilla's Dagger has a more potent bleed that rips out 50% health instead of 30%.
@@ebonslayer3321 I mentioned the 500 bleed Proc which is noticeable when it lands since the bleeding strike usually does 1000 damage or 1200 on the other poor soul who got bled and produces a red mist, but 99 humanity only boosts physical defense by approx 40, along with some other defensive boosts. a crystal soul spear, the one he face tanked, has an int requirement of 44 and can do approx 1000 damage to bosses. My mans took 3 homing masses and that and lost practically a quarter of health. Thats unusual. And again going back to his armor, hes speedy rolling and has the FAP ring, so his defensive stat is lower compared to his usual elite knight rig and he has no other active defensive boost. Ive had +5 Giant armor 99 humanity and still take up to 450 from WoG and like 800 from a crystal soul spear. Additionally he seems to be doing equal damage to some of the heavier weapons like that demons greataxe (gank segment) running 2h was about equal to one of his strikes, which is also weird. Like i said the damage seems skewed, maybe the people hes attacking arent optimized since hes invading but only a few competitors seemed to be on equal footing in terms of damage numbers
@@DerHotler Holy wall of text. What level did you take these soul spears at? I was in Oro's stream when he made the build and he was level 50 I think, that or around level 80.
@@ebonslayer3321 I guess if you consider that a wall guy, Standard Pvp levels used to be ~120 but these are invasions. low level explains lower enemy HP pools but not really the damage recieved/given considering upgrading gear is easy if youre in Izalith/Oolacile. Also doesnt Explain how a CSS did like 120 damage, even with a bad catalyst its still 44 int
Oroboro: *starts playing dark souls pvp again*

oro keep up the vids man love see you and pevee back at the youtube grind!
can't believe the good old days of DkS1 pvp was 11 years ago... I feel so old lol

DS2 introducing the idea of an animation needing to connect for backstabs was probably for the best
Finally I can satisfy my need for darksouls online

Love the videos oro, really appreciate your output lately, all quality as well!

pretty impossible with the disparity between 1/3 and 2... hell even with the disparity between 1 and 3

That damadge isnt fair, he is from a higher level for sure...
5th grade watching oros arsenal to now, thank you
The whole time watching this I was thinking "in soviet Russia, scythe reaps you" because of the self bleeding effect.

I though I was decent. Whenever I see oro play I feel like he understands the game better than it does itself.
Shit pvp = 20k views. Gotta love it
I hope they bring back the flip ring in elden ring
I dont think rings will function how they do in ds for elden ring but i agree with your thought anyway
Hopefully when Elden Ring comes out you won’t get hacked by RCE invaders.
Since they put all of their servers offline I would assume they also are trying to fix their big new game that's about to release.
Just lvl up ADP , bro.
Is this pc or playstation? I want some action in this game again

Backstabbing makes no sense with the scythe lol, you just plunge the entire fucking scythe bit straight through them like it's nothing.
