Games with similar combat?

One might call me a freak, but i find the PVE to be quite enjoyable.
the dodging and blocking using your character's rotation is very fun, i however can't find any game similar to DAD.
Note that i'm being very specific, games like mordhau and chivalry 2 (even if they're very good) have very different combat.

What's this debuff??

I just got this on a run and I couldn't get rid of these no matter what I did. My buddy who knows this game a lil bit better tried to find out what it was as well cuz he had never seen it before.

Anyone know what this is?

US-East Goblin Caves Final Boss

I have never had so much fun with this game as I have farming normal gobby caves on druid this patch. I play mostly to contest copper nodes, but I will contest bosses as well. I am fully built to counter the notorious barbs and fighters who ego check the bear (and lose) every time. I have made hundreds of thousands doing this and I am a chinese farmers worst nightmare. GGs if I we have fought and I hope to run into you again!!

For those curious of my build, I run no bonus resourcefullness because winning every PvP is more important and fun. I run full strength and HP/vig with + Additional Phys DMG accessories. Standard feral druid perks but I run herb sense over natural healing because Wardweed is the spice that fuels my pockets.

Self found mode

Why can't we have 1 map which are strictly self found or entire characters that are self found?

Rather restrict other queues so we get atleast one for self found. It seems so dull to loot now that you have market. + You get rid of the most of the gold buyers who just buys bis everytime they die.

You may be wondering where all the buckled boots have gone...

I spent all my gold on the buckled boots from 70-120gold.

My prediction is that they will be used for the brimstone crafts

When I started purchasing the boots there were 25 pages of boots and now there are 18 pages.

See you tomorrow when I'm rich

My Graphics card crashed during the game

Like the title, while playing my graphics card just shuts off, ram spikes to max (16GB)
it happens only while playing the game on tavern launcher

Every driver is installed correctly and up to date, GPU tested 4 times each with diffirent benchmarking software. I need help. It feels like rng if i can play with my friends or not, because it dosent happen everytime, but im pretty sure 90% of me trying to play is turning off my pc because thats the only way to reset my pc back to normal

Coming back after a couple years, how common is teaming in solos?

I've played 3 or 4 games of solo coming back and getting used to the system and they ALL had people teaming when I spectate. My first death was getting rushed down 2v1.

I get that people are incentivized to just be friendly since there's plenty of loot to share, but how common is this really compared to people just gaming the system and teaming from the start? How do I know when to report or not?

Solo players - how do you play this game?

Hi, Im fairly new to this game (playing for about a month), but I've learned most of the basic stuff like clearing PvE without losing HP and PvP concept (blocking, juking, chasing, using range and melee when its needed, etc).

The thing is I'm mostly playing just the ruins and crypt with gear limit to common so I dont need to buy new gear everytime I die. I never tried high-roller because I bet I will be smashed there by anyone.

I thought maybe I can try squire royale, queued for the game and ended up alone against 3man teams. Ok so maybe arenas, but thats also for teams. I've looked for some parties created in game, but for europe I've found only PvE games where I am not interested in.

So how do you play this game when you are solo? Just farming the dungeon maps or there is some kind of matchmaking for other modes?

EDIT: thanks for the answers, I didnt know that there is autofill option for the squire and arenas. My bad.

Any tips for arena longsword fighter?

Hello, is there any stat benchmark that i can check to make an arena kit for longsword fighter? At the moment im at 150hp, 50% pdr, 26% mdr, 28% action speed, 32% phys power weapons out, 10% armor pen, 288ms and lastly +14% headshoot dmg with the necklace.

Last week, i had 145 hp 47% pdr and felt like i wasn't tanking anything, and now i have only slightly increased my survivability by replacing my strenght rings with vigor rings, so im thinking to maybe drop the headshoot necklace and take the one that give +6hp, or alternatively i would need to take a slower pants with vigor (currentlt using frostlight leather legging) but it will lower my action speed by a big margin, aswell as my magic resistance.

So why do you guys think about the stat spread of my kit? And is there something that could change?

Do all weapons have a dmg bonus when riposting?

Now that all weapons can riposte, I was wondering if they all had a damage bonus upon landing a riposte or if it’s still exclusive to longsword
