Anyone have fun weapon suggestions (and where to get them), for both pve and pvp, for a heavy weapon str build?

Ah, I meant heavy as in slow/feels like it has a lot of weight behind it. Forgot about the gem >.<. Thanks though.

Greatsword or zweihander are really funny ! Auto attack are pretty weak (very slow for pvp), but a good riposte or a good stance attack can really put you in a good situation. Yhorm sword is also pretty funny (I didn't get mine to +5, but i've seen some guy pvping with it and they were quite funny to watch).
The bad point is people (since it's always at least 2vs1) rushing at you with rapier or dark sword and just spamming auto attack while you try to parry.
Ho and the dragon armor axe seems pretty funny, especially its skill attack.

Just finished NG. Didn't used shield at all, mostly switched between Claymore and BKGS. Had a hard time on Nameless King phase 2 until I equipped Carthus Blood Ring. The difference in damage taken doesn't change a thing against him, he was still two-shooting me anyway.
Also, I want to get all achievements which mostly means getting all the rings. Am I right to assume I can rush NG+ and then get all the +1 and +2 rings in NG++ anyway ?
Then farm all those covenants... T-T I dunno how ring achievement works, but I assume it counts all unique rings, not +1 or +2 versions. You'd still want to go to NG because of boss souls anyway, for all sorceries, all miracles, all pyromancies.
Ring Achievement means all 107 rings. Regular, +1 and +2. Good times.

Is there anything similar to Rusted Iron Ring in DS3?

Equip knife and spam quickstep.

I really like the game, but what still bothers me is that aesthetically it takes way too much after its spiritual predecessor (Bloodborne). Tombstones littered everywhere, gothic cathedrals and buildings everywhere. Irithyll actually even looks like they just copy-pasted Yharnam into the game.
Don't get me wrong, the gameplay so far is among the best in the series, although it lacks Bloodborne's and DaS1's focus because they went with a system that's a middle ground between those two games. It's just that aesthetically it feels a lot less original than DaS1.

PVP at the moment is horrible.

Ya, it sucks
Hopefully they ask From B team to balance the game, they made DkS2 great and it was a mess also

Yeah but when everything is unbalanced including the level of skill everyone has it makes it ok for now hah. Sometime I invade a gank squad of 3 guys who are playing like there life will actually end if they die in game. Then I will hit another 3 guys who just play YOLO as fuck. I've already had moments I won't ever forget.
I was once in a 2v1 and both guys had about 50% health so the host backed up to take a drink and the phantom came at me. He saw me light up my Chaos Fire orb and thinking I was aiming at him rolled out of the way. It was like a movie after the roll he moved back and forth as to say "Pshhh you think you can hit me with that slow shit" only seconds later seeing the text that the host had died hah.

Well who knows how the meta will work when Poise actually works in the game. Everything staggers you...unless you're working with one of the weapons that have super/hyper armor. Either way it allows stagger-locking hell.

This. Every longsword, and straightsword stab staggers you, even in heavier armors. They also need to bring back kick = shield break on greatshields from DkS2.
So far the best counter I've seen vs pokes is using a mace which has the hyper armor skill (you see cathedral knights use it). It only lasts a couple of seconds but it does protect you form poke hell. Maces in general are very underused ATM.

FML. Played blindly on my first playthrough, missed the Mound Makers covenant. But since I went for warrior/pyro kinda character I wanted to collect all the pyromancies for achievement. I have them all except one. That from that damn covenant. There was no way to get it in NG so I started NG+ and trying to invade. So far after few hours of getting my ass kicked I have 8 shackles...
I suck at PvP, sure. But my build is also not helping. Wonder if I will have better luck trying to farm those enemies in catacombs T_T

Wow, this game is kicking my ass like no Souls game before, although I've only gotten to the Grave Watchers.
That said, this is the prettiest game I've seen in my life, and the music blows me away.
By the way, did I miss anything at Firelink Shrine? Why can't I walk to the first area? I can only teleport there.

You didn't miss anything. Everyone has to teleport to the high wall of lothric.

Music is definitely S-class in this game. Combined with the boss arenas and levels, it creates a lot of memorable moments for sure.

So I finished the game a few days ago...Im at a loss at what to do with myself after about 20hours pvp/invading after my final boss (nameless king). The last two bosses were so much fun it feels like I just finished a long book series like the wheel of time/the dark tower and that forlorn feeling just seeps in right after. God I just sit working listening to the sound track and missing that feeling of wonder of my 1st play through. I did the 10 VIT play through and I must say the game was so challenging/rewarding....ahh it reminded me of playing the 1st installment demon's souls so long ago. From soft, good stuff lads..
