Dark souls Armor and Weapon stereotypes

[abyss]

I'm making this thread because i want to see what people think about other players using a weapon or armor set. Does it tell you they are a r1 spammer, skilled player, interessting fighter etc.

Note: These stereotypes does not apply for every player and I'm just making this for fun

For armor set I'll be choosing the Knight set. Everytime i see someone using this i instantly get a feeling of that the player is a r1 spammer that can still beat you somehow. That armor set pisses me off for some reason

For weapon ill be choosing Black Knight Sword. People who use this weapon either HATE the Ringed Knight paired Greatswords or just wants to spam the weapon art hoping for it to go well.

Edit: I forgot to write this, choose 1 armor set and weapon that you want to write about

Probally the armor that makes me cringe the most is the Fallen Knight set. It's just so overrated and people are trying to look like a ''Mysterious but badass character''

Not that the armor is wrong, it's just so much used by those edgy roleplayers.

I don't really have any issues with weapons as everything has a counter to it.

EDIT: Oh, and the extremely edgy Legion Etiquette Gesture paires really well with the Fallen Knight set.

Most people I've seen in the forest with the Antiquated Plain Set you get before Midir seem to know what they're doing. I'd often then ally with them for either sick ganks or sick counterganks.

Yes, every third player is wearing the Fallen Knight set. I do not want to see it anymore.

As a SL 200 invader, I can easily promise that, with build diversity plummeting at high levels, I'm sick and tired of the following:

Havel's Set: "I can swing twice as much for half the damage!" (Enhanced if Tears of Denial buff is used)

Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords: "Because what's better than one Ringed Knight sword? TWO RINGED KNIGHT SWORDS!" (Enhanced if, when losing, runs into a small room where they can spam the weapon art and win)

O.p, the the Knight set?
Do you mean nameless, ringed, elite, or fallen?

Fallen knight set is a sign of someone who is a try hard

Dessert pyromancer is someone who is good or a pyromancer

Estoc is a try hard but a good player

Smoughs armour or some other ugly thing is someone that enjoys fun or trolling

Friedes scythe or dark sword or follower sabre or carthus sword is someone that has been away from the game for a while and doesn't know about the patches lol

Someone in a dark souls 1 cosplay is someone that likes dark souls 1

Knight set is the armor set you start with if you picked the Knight class

For my armour set: either nothing or almost nothing. These people are the sort of people that make the nameless king fight look easy. Always summon the people with no armour.

As for weapons: ring knight piss off great sword

Armor: full Havel, if I see that at the meta level I prepare that it might be a cheater. I know it is perfectly possible to wear full Havel at around 120, but if I try to remember two cheaters wearing exactly the same armor I can only think of that one.

Weapon: composite bow, I see people trying to use that in arena from time to time and it always just a very long chase where they make a mistake and die at the end (or the match is over due to the time out).

I love bow users because they don't realise that the rolling attack doesn't actually stagger you.

So you can just wait for their rolling attack and then smack them lol

You mean it does not stagger even an idle player? If so those chases are about to become a bit shorter) Thanks for the tip!

Most people who use the Undead Legion set in the forest are sub-par fighters, from my experience. Usually they combine it with any kind of greatweapon and get annihilated.

When I see someone with a staff or any casting weapons I know they are going to rage quit because I'm just going to shoot them with a crossbow and interupt their casts

Or just wait out their Ashen to eat away at their soul. It's what I often do.

[Santey]

Havel's set: I hate it.
Mace: I hate it twice.
And yeah, together it looks just ugly.

I uSe HyPer ARmoR HURR DURR. MoMMy wHEre ArE mY chEErioS??

-Anyone with an ultra great weapon

[Peek A Boo]

After the sales fallen knight set and dark sword combo is at all time high. Its like these noobs have googled "coolest set" and "op weapon" and got those items.
Little did they know that fallen knight set is the clown costume of DS3 and dark sword is your giant lollipop accessory that goes well with the set.

When i see that combo i know that im going to get some free parries from R1 spamming host and ALT+F4 at the end.

Armour: Dragonslayer set.
Weapon: any other weapon that isn't the dragonslayer spear.
The sterotype I think of is.. inaccurate ornstein cosplayers.

Wolf Knight Set + Lothric knight legs (Artorias skips leg days).

I semi-cosplay Knight Artorias (no shield and legs)...I mostly lose in PvP kek.
2handing his blade for acrobatic shenanigans + its not bad for PvE.

Stereotype: Artorias, Artorias everywhere - whenever I get summoned for jolly coop I see another Knight Artorias, I applaud, then we die while boss is at 5% hp, yay.
