You're a braver man than I to farm 30 dragon scales without using Gold Serpent Ring or Humanity to boost your item discovery rate.

[@twilitlloyd7167]

Here’s to hoping they’ll add something like this into a dlc. Maybe it could be something like pair of tears for the wondrous flask. For example- a “Crystallized Dragon Tear” to transform your head and allow a breath attack to replace your spells or ashes of war; or a “Crystallized Dragon Blood Drop” to transform your body, perhaps massively increasing your poise and giving you a bonus to damage negation, or adding a damaging shockwave to the new mechanic in Elden Ring, the jump button! I’m probably going to be trying to figure out how the mechanics of such a thing could work (how you could modify the damage type, how to maybe upgrade it to an “ancient dragon transformation,” etc.) for the rest of the day; but I’ll put more thought into it than FromSoft.

[@FioreFire]

Imagine being Gwyn. A creature approaches you, half man, half dragon. You swing your massive flaming sword at him, and he casually swats it aside with his bare hand like it was nothing. You reel back stunned and vulnerable, and you can only IMAGINE what he's going to do to take advantage of that opening, and how painful it's going to be. With that kind of strength, he could tear you limb from limb without breaking a sweat. And then he gently breathes on you until you're essentially annoyed to death

[@spiritrunner76]

Iiiiincredibly late on the uptake, but for anyone else wanting to do a dragon-bro run here are a few pro-tips; - The damage -and range- of the dragon head fire increases with covenant ranking. farm the 30 scales. it's worth it. - If you want to switch to a different covenant you can. your coven rank gets halved when you leave any coven so give 60 (or even 99) scales first then you'll keep that damage and range buff. - USE, CONTROLLED, BURSTS! Each tick of continuous fire uses an increased amount of stamina. The longer you blow, the quicker it gets sucked up. I use three or four ticks of fire at a time and it works well. (listen as you use the skill. each 'puff' of the flame sound effect is a new tick) - If an enemy dies, you need to begin a new fire burst to quickly re-target the stream. Also, you want to move even just a nudge so the character re-orients to the updated lock-on. More reason to burst fire, and move just a little bit continuously. - You move slowly while shooting, and enemies often counter-attack. I think it is a reaction to the input being for a consumable (IE punish attempts). Walk backwards while you burn and you can dependably avoid damage- especially when taking advantage of the fire range as well. I tend to walk a small circle as I flamethrower my enemies. Step forward into range, take a step to the left as I wind-up the fire breath, then walk backwards for four fire ticks. Readjust/step forward again, and repeat. You can build a nice rhythm of born and breathe while quickly switching targets as needed and always having enough stamina for a roll or two if needed. Just manage that stamina bar and don't drain it completely. The 'cooldown' penalty on a complete drain gets in the way. For build/stat tips, focus on vitality over stamina. Stamina cost is easily manageable with a little discipline along with a grass-crest shield on your back. If going full dragon, steel ring is a good option, leaving the second slot open for situational stuff. Speaking of the fill body; The torso stone does not boost the fire damage. BUT it is useful in staggering enemies hiding behind shields/weapon guards. It is a stagger similar to casting force, minus the knock-down. It's an 'oh shit' tool for pve. So... not much use. In pvp though it makes it near impossible to get backstabbed. Someone even has a hint of getting around you and you just fire it off. they stagger, you can roll away. Clip a shield guard and you are all but guaranteed a good riposte opportunity. To get the bonus bare-handed damage you need the full dragon body, and that's it. The animations... well... suck. they look lame and have poor reach. But they hit hard- especially for early game, and -you can parry- with the empty left hand. So that's useful. which makes me think... HEY! LEMON! you -CAN- do a bare hands run in darksouls that WON'T make you die from tedium! Just use the dragon body and BOOM! No-weapon run made easy. Dragon fists are still fists dangit!

[@Zaxophone32]

I always thought it would be cool if there were different Dragon “gifts” for different builds that scaled accordingly. Dragon head, flame breath, scales with magic build.. Dragon body, hard scales and claws scale with strength and give a bit of defense. Dragon Tail, Tail whip, dex scale. It could have been a really cool idea and maybe you could fit a build to actually use the dragon bits, like perhaps the tail can strike backwards to clear a weak enemy behind you, or get a hit in as you run away, and maybe a high stamina cost strong tail hit that staggers giving you a chance for backstab or whatever.. making up for dex build weaknesses. Or you could choose the scales to give your glass canon a bit of much needed defense. The scales could be useful by giving you temporary strength boost so you could temporarily single hand a badass weapon or something… or maybe a temporary defense boost and additional poise so you can try to get that powerful strike in! The head could’ve had some additional breath options like a ranged fireball, napalm puddle that lasts for a bit, and maybe a scream to cause stagger. I’ve always been disappointed in the dragon forms because it could’ve been so cool and pretty well balanced! The trick is to use it to accentuate a build, not carry one. Imagine you’re a squishy magic user, you’re trying to focus on the boss so you go dragon mode, vomit up a puddle of fire behind you, turn and prep your awesome spell while the fire at your back gives you the precious few seconds you need by killing the weak mobs. Or maybe you get boxed in and need a bit of breathing room, Dragon Roar to stagger the mobs and slip through and run away. Imagine you’re a badass rogue and you’re lacking strength, so you use your powerful tail whip move to stagger the big enemy, slip behind and backstab! Or maybe you’re trying to line up a shot with your bow and you hear a weak mob behind you, tailwhip to clear your back so you can make the shot and then finish them off when you’re done. Another sick idea that might be OP would be a weak tail jab on dodge.. as you dodge past an enemy you get a sneaky strike in with your tail. Not much damage, but it will add up when your entire play style is rolling circles around your enemies. The equivalent of a weak dagger slash maybe. (I can picture the “Tail Dodge Only” runs! Haha) I have so many neat ideas for dragon forms… I wish I knew how to mod… lol

Pretty impressive, I didn't think channels could explode like this in such a saturated field anymore. Makes me wish I took it more seriously when I started, but being a broke college student with a $5 microphone, Windows Movie Maker, and low enthusiasm didn't allow for much.
