trends in dks

ever notice how dks is dictated by trends? i will start off with the choas blade. one of the most ridiculed weapons in the game originally and now thanks to peeve peeverson ppl's are sporting their dex/pyro builds with the cb. what changes have you noticed since first playing dks?

I've noticed the HavelMcZweiFlippers have started putting the Zwei down and just going for rapiers.

all thanks to youtube!

I've noticed the BKGA becoming a lot less prominent now that people can parry, and a mass increase in Giants MoM and MLGS users.

So much more MLGS users...

and GC users........

chaos blade was cool before peeve ruined it imo, i had seen some legit pvp'ers before that used it really well. the whole draining of your vit is pretty awesome and so minute that it doesnt even matter specially since chaos blade builds have a lot more points left to put in vit. and yes everyonw is using lightning rapiers and mlgs.

^

It had to be done.

These trends suck. I wanna see everyone going to long swords damn it!

Fists-fights!

you can alwasy set up straight sword fight but then everyone is gonna use the bss
you can ban it though.

i know, i love the thorn set, i always wear the full set or with my worm.

Claymores have always been a bit popular

clay is never gonna go away, its just a good weapons and hits so hard with a 40/40 build.

Yes^

Also patches change pvp drastically, like pre-patch TWOP and ROF were really popular, now all everybody does is BS.

everyone bs'd a lot but in the last months people do nothing but bs, its so boring and i just dont get how they find that fun.

seeing a lot of heavy armor/ weapon users that spend the entire fight fishing.

The more I beat gankers the worse I get at 1v1's

the dragon glitch, thankfully its use hasn't exploded to hellish proportions yet but... many people use it in pvp now, that and the spell swap glitch too...

the worse are full giant/havel's with a lil tiny lightning rapier lol

No, Mossad - the worst is having 100 matches in a row as a forest hunter with a Stone Greatsword or two dragon glitchers or wait - a 1v3 with two dragon glitchers and a TWoD'er... this game is actually beginning to die for me, the hacking has become too prominent and the glitching. FHing has become impossible.

holy crap EVERYONE is doing that now, i stopped pvp'ing because of it. moonlight gs buffed with CMW, really? im only vading now, i'd rather face a gank that put up with glitches.

lol before all these glitches started popping up i was going to make a FH build but now im not gonna do it because of it. like i sadi before, i am only vading and popping in to FC ecvery once in a while.

Mask of the Child has been abandoned for MotM, which I really don't like, I also see the Zwei a lot less, which is sad for me because the Zwei is easy to fight if the flipper is a noob. The OP Giants armor is as popular as ever, and TWoP has made a comeback in the forest lately, which is terrible. It might be nerfed, but it lasts long enough for two people to stunlock you to death.

I wasn't here for early game PvP but I don't see why the chaos blade was laughed at. It's potentially the strongest katana if you have humanity, and its the most BA thing ever. Did 1.05 make it stronger?
