Dark Souls 3 Walkthrough, Collectibles, and Unique Items
A complete guide to Dark Souls 3.
From Software has made themselves known for tough and challenging games filled with unique items, gear, and weapons. Dark Souls 3 is no different, and From Software isn’t looking to disappoint with the massive amount of content available to players right from the start. In order to help you out we’ve compiled a complete walkthrough of some of the game’s toughest and most challenging areas, as well as laid out guides for boss fights, how to find unique items, and more.
Dark Souls 3 Quick Tips
- Increase your Estus Flask use by alloting your Estus Flasks in a way that helps your class. By speaking with the blacksmith in Firelink Shrine you can easily allot how many Estus Flasks are used for both the normal, healing flask, as well as how many are used for the new Ashen Estus Flask, which restores Focus Points (FP).
- Invest Souls into the Skill Points that matter most for your class. If you plan on using heavy melee styled weapons invest in stats like Vigor, Vitality, Strength, and Dexterity to make sure you are able to easily equip and carry any melee weapons you come across. If your class is built around casting spells and miracles you will want to invest points into Attunement, Intelligence, and your Faith attribute.
- Don't go over 70% Equip Load. This can easily be checked in your Inventory. Going above 70% Equip Load will slow your character's movements and rolls down, causing you to be a much easier target for enemy attacks to hit.
- Roll. Roll. Roll. Roling is your best friend in Dark Souls 3, and you're going to want to do a lot of it. Shields are great additions to your arsenal, but in the end, rolling away from an attack will cost less Stamina than blocking it with a shield does. Rolling is also one of the quickest ways to move your character around without draining your Stamina too quickly.
- Return to Firelink Shrine regularly as new NPCs will appear in the Shrine as you progress through the game's story and areas. We highly suggest checking back after each and every boss fight, as moving through too many boss fights before checking for new NPCs at the Shrine can lead to you missing several optional quest oppurtunities.
