Where would people rank this in the series? I feel I'm the only one high on this game after talking to a group of friends.
3>1>Bloodborne>2
I fucking loved the shit out of the first game too.
3 would be the best Souls game if it wasn't for the crappy gimmick bosses and the terrible weapon balance (straight swords...). As it stands, DS1 is still the best for me, followed by BB.

There is a Stance called Spin Slash. I'm not sure but I think it's similar, at least it looks a little like a helicopterman.

Estoc is a broken weapon
And Straight Swords are kinda OP
PVP doesnt seem balanced at all

Estoc was broken in DkS2 as well. The current cancer is estoc+ havel shield, now that they raped FUGS AR by 70 base damage units.
Greatshields in general are a huge problem. You cannot easily break them since kicks don't guarantee a guard break. Only do stamina damage.
Straight Swords are OP as fuck. With the pinnacle being Darkwraith Sword. Can go up to almost 700AR(or was it 600AR?) with a quality 40/40 build, but takes only fraction of greatswords' stamina swing. Attackspeed and perma stunlocking are king -.-

Yeah i was pvping with some big weapons (zweihander and the winged spear) but I let those go to take a dark sword... Seriously you can't win a fight against a guy with an estoc or a dark sword when you have a greatsword, it's too slow and takes too much stamina. Your only chance is to parry, when they only have to run at you and spam.

Boss weapons are a bit disappointing. Cannot be infused to scale better, cannot put rasin on, and expensive as fuck to upgrade.
I kinda regretted taking the Abyss Watchers GS+dagger combo instead of Artorias GS, but now that I have both, my Refined +10 Zweihander and +10 Darksword are infinitely better for a quality 40/40 build.

I just got the fuma great sword which I kept hearing was the best big weapon in the game even after the nerf, finally got up to 40 strength so I can use it in 2 hands without the penalty, and the dark sword seems to just out perform it.

I'm having difficulty seeing the differences between great heavy soul arrow and soul spear. Spear costs more than double the arrow, both seem to cast as fast, maybe spear flies a bit faster? The damage at 60 int is a difference of maybe 30 damage, when both hit around 800. Why would I use soul spear at all :\
and ffs can they really not fix this summoning bug where phantoms can't cross the boss fog. How the fuck does something like this get past testing.

Seems From still has a lot of balance/fixing to do.

In the previous games Spear pierced its targets, so you could hit multiple enemies if they were grouped tightly or lined up. Assume it's the same in this. Probably not often worth that mana cost difference, but might be worth attuning once in a while for certain areas with big packs of enemies or 2-3 larger ones that will line up nicely for you.

I'm getting the impression that enemy monsters weapons do not collide with walls.
+ Show Spoiler [covenant stuff] +I'm also having a hard time getting summoned in as a Darkmoon Blade. Any thoughts?

Weapon spoilers -
+ Show Spoiler +I'm running a wardens twinblades 40 luck bleed build, with the bleed consumable.
So much fun. Fast attacks, can bleed through shields, each combo is a bleed proc.
I don't agree that straight swords/rapiers are really broken in this game, they are just easy to use/accessable from low level. There seems to be quite a few good weapons, just everyone knows how to use those from previous games.
Heavy weapons are much better then DKs2/1 as well.

Need to try dunking my head in wax in real life too, seems to be a real problem solver.

What does the wax thing do anyway?
