I was trying to recruit a monster for some Jolly Cooperation pokemon style.

Griffon: ME HUNGRY! DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
Me: "Eat yourself."
Griffon: THAT GOOD IDEA! *nom*
Griffon: ......
Griffon: AWOOOOOOON!
*griffon dies*

My goal was to recruit it not kill it, but I should probably revise my recruiting checklist to make sure my candidates are smarter than a pineapple.   After all, a pineapple is smart enough not to eat itself.

Demon negotiation is confusing.

So, I'm fighting Ornstein and smough and I've got a build Which hasn't hit its goal point yet, so I'm kind of a weak fighter (besides crossbow hits) once I run out of lightning spears. I kited the two golems at the entrance to death by plunge attack on the stairs and I've got solaire with me, and we managed to kill smough easily enough before sol lost half his health. At this point, I'm out of sunlight spears, so I have to use my crossbow and PRAY that solaire doesn't go down. Well, solaire went down thanks to dunkstein's thunderass, and I managed to get off only a few more shots with the crossbow after that, spending the rest of the time getting impaled between strikes from my weak-ass winged spear. At this point, I'm' hurt, out of estus, and being pressured to hell. Then I notice ornstein's only got a sliver of health, so I rush in for the kill. I swing and get hit hard, thinking that's it for me, but that tiny hit was enough to kill him and I'm left with just 17 hp and no estus, victorious and ready to cap off this build by crafting the dragons layer spear. Words cannot describe how amazed I was.

...out of curiosity, how high are your STR and DEX?

In that order, 20ish and 25. It was passable against the Berenike knight in the painted world of Ariamis (which I like to refer to as the painful world of anal rammus)
 But short of plunge attacks it couldn't beat those cleric golems before they heal themselves. Maybe it's just because I was too fat to get around the shields in time, but either way, even at +10, it just didn't get through fatboy and slim's armor well.

Dunno why your damage is so low, then. Spears aren't exactly the strongest weapons around, but they SHOULD be dealing alright damage with those stats in theory. 334 AR according to Mugenmonkey, in fact.
It's probably your damage type, tbh.

>leveling dex

Not to start a flame war, but dex builds get crazy damage if balanced right, plus the weapons you'll be using will be gold pine resin-able and bows will lay down insane damage at range with basically no ammo limit. Plus, small shields (buckler especially) absolutely shit on big slow str weapons. Get riposted, giantdads. Oh, and then there's extra crit damage on rapiers and daggers!

[SOLDIER First]

i know, i was overusing an overused meme about dex being shit

[ironsnake345]

God dammit, I should've known that!

Played using the "Zorro" playstyle, made by "Senor Zorro."

I actually did pretty well on Break Bad, even though I was still getting killed frequently.

Fistful of Frags.

Brass Beast heavy in Mann v. Machine. Maxed out fire rate and ammunition capacity with two ranks of penetration. Awesome support medic kept me at ~750 health most of the time, while keeping the rest of the team alive and raising anybody who went down. He was using the Kritzkrieg. For the majority of the game, the killfeed was full of critical brass beast kills, with one life alone bringing me up to 90 kills.

Was this before or after the change in how the damage reduction works?

Before the most recent update, just this morning.

Finally killed that son of a succubus. Standing on top of the arch plugging it with fire arrows felt really good. As did hacking its knees out. As did looting that damn key to the depths.
