Practice Your Duels
PvP is nothing new to the Dark Souls series, however, From Software is clearly embracing the idea this time around as the last expansion introduced an arena just for competitive fighting. This trend will continue as The Ringed City aims to add two other locations for players to test their skills against one another. You will want to start brushing up on your PvP skills if you plan to venture into these arenas on Tuesday. Remember, the average level for most serious players on the multiplayer side of Dark Souls III is around 100-125, so try to have a character around that general area.
One of the most entertaining ways to practice your dueling skills is via the various fight clubs scattered throughout the world. These allow you to have a more constant flow of players without having to load up the same map again and again. The most used spot is just after the Pontiff Sulyvahn boss fight on the balcony beyond his bonfire. Just stand around this area and mark yourself as a hostile invader on the floor via the Red Soapstone. Feel free to experiment when fighting, it may take a few rounds before you find a weapon that truly clicks with your playstyle. Not every PvE weapon is great for PvP, so don’t feel like you’re required to use your main arsenal when facing a human opponent.
