thx
>>726025198
the axe is really heavy and I had to sacrifice my old fashion
>>726025239
yeah it's a cool weapon. the 2h heavy also smushes human-sized enemies into the ground
>>
>>726025104
hey op, i'm curious do you have any favorite build in this game?
i always find myself build/cosplaying as this boar warrior who came from The Depths lol

> wear fang boar helm
>be naked in lioncloth
>wield demon greataxe and broken shield)
>only use dungpies as throwable consumables

another is this cheese wizard guy but that's kinda boring for ya'll.

i don't have a favorite build, but i did make a couple characters using velka's talisman that were gimmicky but kinda fun. one of them used velka's rapier which has a cool unique r2, and the other used the moonlight gs. both had some int scaling miracles thanks to the talisman.

ds1 has a bunch of neat weapons aside from that. large club has poison in ds1, the silver knight weapons and fury sword are all cool dex weapons, pyromancy in general is really fun. should also try the warpick or lucerne paired up with the leo ring for massive counter damage, it's quite funny. i like the lifehunt scythe and dagger you get from priscilla too-- bleed is really situational, but can be cool. i also like all of the dragon weapons (aside from the straight sword), for their cool heavy attacks.
>boar warrior
nice, i'm a fan of the helmet.
>>
>>726025104
i doubt you can even swing that axe with those bony ass arms
>>
>>726026148
thanks for your suggestion op. im currently in ng+3 and im considering trying out the lifehunt scythe even if that means killing a fluffy waifu

>also like all of the dragon weapons (aside from the straight sword), for their cool heavy attacks.

oh i like havel's dragon tooth. lorewise and how it looks =D

You're alright, anon.
>>
>>726026346
i think the tooth is one of my least used weapons in all of the games desu lol. actually also completely forgot but i really like the second heavy attack in the 1h moveset for the demon greataxe because it launches enemies in the air.
>>726026780
with those stats it's a midroll.
>>726026365
idk why i set it low, i think i had an issue with something when i tried to in the past.
>>726027552
i like to alternate between 1h and 2h with axes because of that hefty strength bonus when 2hing. also different heavy attack moves ofc.

That axe is shit. Almost all boss weapons in DS1 are shit. What were they thinking? You can of course still play with it, but there are better alternatives that are much easier to acquire.

Yeah the investment is pretty high to get a gimmicky weapon. Still at least some of them are fun to use.

Also forgot how cool the r2s are on the various clubs

I wish i saved more of my 2012-13 clips, i did a ton of fun with golem axe.
>>
>>726033298
Virtually no other STR weapon in DS1 gives you access to cheap and relatively powerful ranged attacks in the same way golem axe does. It also doesn't compete with any other good STR options in terms of upgrade materials.
>>
>>726036429
lul evil
>>
>>726036596
All the gimmicky R2s in DS1 drain the durability of their respective weapons hard. In effect it's not something you can rely on, and not something I'd consider good. And it replaces a standard R2, which is a pain in the ass.
>>
>>726040257
To be fair repair powders are quite cheap in the mid/endgame, going for 500 souls each. I wouldn't throw the specials out like crazy, but they can be handy in a pinch
>>
>>726040257
>All the gimmicky R2s in DS1 drain the durability of their respective weapons hard
Repair powders cost 500 souls per piece. It's a non issue by the time you get the golem axe, literally just dragon king greataxe the phalanx in painted world a few times.

The golem set is one of my favorite heavy sets ever, it makes you look like an indestructible chess piece. I'm disappointed it never made the cut for future games.

>>726025104
dang u boughted that axe? vry cool
>>
bros, DS1 is next in my rotation after this Lies Of P shit is over. I've never done an axe run. is it worth it?
>>
>>726041824
They're okay. ds1 has a stumble mechanic for axes, hammers, and halberds, where if you miss an attack, your character does a little stumble animation that leaves you vulnerable. They also have some cool r2s, but you'll be doing r1s mostly. Not the best weapon class, but you can dish out some nice damage with some of them.
>>
>>726041824
black knight greataxe has my favorite moveset in the entire game but it's a bitch to get prior to the final area
the one you get in the depths is cool too if you're STRmaxxing
>>
>>726041824
Yeah, there are some really fun ones
Black Knight Greataxe is indeed one of the best DaS1 weapons, but requires some dexterity investment and there is no guarantee that you will get it early. The rest focuses almost entirely on strength. The regular Battle Axe of the Bandit class is fantastic (for a starting weapon), Cleaver and Greataxe can be acquired early. They suffer a bit in the range department and their attacks are very committal, but the damage is tremendous.
>>
>>726044547
demon greataxe also fucks on pure STR builds and you can just buy it later if you aren't blessed by rng
>>
>>726044547
>there is no guarantee that you will get it early
Either cheat it in, or save scum right off the bat. Jump to the bottom of the Catacombs, clear the bonewheels, backup your save, kill the knight until he drops it

my only experience with dark souls 1 is getting invaded by a hacker less than two hours into it so i just refunded it

>>726046427
In all of the years I played DS1 I don't think I've ever done a single dedicated katana playthrough. Maybe next time I'll make a beeline for chaos blade.
>>
>>726047090
>Getting a +5 chaos blade before O&S
They never stood a chance specially because I was also using power within to emphasize the glass cannon aspect of that build
>>
>>726047090
It's fun being a ninja dude, can always do parries with your barehand too
>>
>>726047819
I wish they ever added some tanto/waki zashi. A smaller japanese sword with better parrying. So you can go full Musashi.
Using the parrying dagger is not the same.
>>
>>726048083
Yeah it's a shame we didn't get that until elden ring-- and then they made the parry frames absolute shit on it lol
>>
>>726025104
>check out my sick axe
I am not a medical professional. If your axe is sick you need to take it to an axe doctor.
>>
>>726048259
Oh god oh fuck
>>
>>726048259
The doctor won't receive you unless you open with
>Doctor, can I axe you a question?
>>
Reminder that an offhand hand axe is legit the best offhand weapon in DS1
>>
>>726048719
Never tried that in ds1. In ds3 and elden ring, I would use an offhand handaxe a lot for pvp mostly tho.
>>
I wonder how many people actually know that the stone gs has a unique 1hr2. not the slow aura, but an actual different r2 attack.
>>
>>726049409
That would require people to actually use that thing.
>>
>>726049409
it's that weird overhead chop, but yeah not a common weapon to use or even find in the first place
>>
>>726048813
It serves the same function in DS1, it's a fast offhand. The only issue is that pvp is very poisestab centric so it can't function as well as it could
>>
>>726049742
Makes sense.
