Now, if only in addition to the great abilities, we had the old ds1 dragon form look back... or maybe ds2's dragon armor. Yet, nooooooo, had to get something weird looking! Almost looks like an alien. Dx

Important note for whoever is doing hawkwood's questline: after receiving the farron ring, reload the area and search the tombs in the right side of the shrine. Pick up hawkwood's shield and then travel to the great belfry to summon him as a phantom. You must have hawkwood's shield in the inventory for his white sign to appear.

Now that I know how to use this, I'd probably use it for poison swamps or to look cool.

Submit

Too much range to deal with enemies on you and too little range to deal with enemies away from you

Bad news: I didn’t quite understand how the whole “Dragon Arms” thing worked at first.
Good news: I had a great time beating up Hollows in the Cemetery of Ash with my bare hands.

Even quickstep can't handle this level of gank

Reading this after being surprised by getting this accidentally. I reached the end of the peak and saw these "statues" doing Path of the Dragon so I was like "heh maybe I should try seeing if posing Path of the Dragon does something again" and indeed it did. Now I discovered there is a Twinkling Dragon Head Stone.

Only way to make dragonform useable is to use the bowglitch so you can wear armor underneath. At that point you're doing it just for fashion and slightly different absorptions (better dark and fire but major lightning weakness)

Submit

The idiots at from missed such a good opportunity to make this balanced and cool. Its the torso stone not the arm stone. What if it summoned the entire torso and attacked with arms giving you 65% immunity to damage while casting. They absolutely destroyed any hope of being a dragon bro.

Submit

whenever I saw a dragon form user ds1/ds2 I was like “Oh cool a dragon bro” but in ds3 I’m like “What are you doing who would ever use this ****” and then I one shot them and laugh for at least 2 minutes

Interesting, no one ever reported a bug where animation won't appear randomly.
If you keep using it few times in a row animation will glitch and you won't see arms.

Submit

Thanks ymfah very cool

Just so you know, you cannot drop any of the dragon stones. They are considered tools so you cannot drop them to friends or other online players.

Submit

Love using great weapons on npcs. "parry this you casual"

Submit

Was expecting a hard fight against Hawkwood, but he never hit me and I killed him with few blows of dragonslayer greataxe in few seconds !?

Submit

Hawkwood fight is really easy if you spam Great Soul Dregs with high intelligence :)

Submit

drop the firebomb with line, then change to twinkling dragon torso stone while mashing use item, then start rolling with l2 hold. Now u can use this beautiful item without stamina cost everyroll

Submit

But how much is the bonus?

Submit

*****damage***** range, long ass windup, absurd stamina cost for what little it provides. Why even bother?

Submit

Id like to see what the full dragon model for the twinkling dragon would be and it would be awesome if when we used it, it would turn us into a miniature version of a twinkling dragon.

Submit

Unarmed damage not in this like in DS1?

Submit

GNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The rings do help somewhat, but they do not negate the 'naked' penalty so their help is less than you would expect. With the dragon the best defense is a well timed dodge and a sturdy shield. The Dragonoid is meant to be a Porsche not a sherman.

I have found a solid workable build by focusing on Pyromancy, seeing as the int and fth states boost the slam as well as fire spells. i use a millwood shield and the demon scar. It's all i need unless the enemy I'm fighting has really high fire defense. And sometimes I'll equip a staff or a talisman depending on my spell setup but that's situational adjustments.

it makes the build incredibly light and has very low physical stat requirements. So dex and str can be minimal to let you dump into hp, stamina, 18 or so attunement, and an even split in faith and intelligence. I'm up to soul level 111 and can do some solid damage with my pyro and also the torso stone slam.

Submit

Just a qick question, but couldnt the poise and phys protections problem be off set with the Wolf ring _3 and the Ring of steel protection +3

Submit

Dont know how to edit the wiki or if its possible

so add in Notes:

- Consumes 102 stamina on use

Submit

Perfect for Calista Flockhart cosplay...

One of my favorite tactics is to nail an enemy with a riposte or backstab, then time the twinkling torso slam to hit them just as their hitbox reactivates. it's a nice little wakeup call for some more quick damage.

All in all, the torso and twinkling torso are the stones to use. Since DS1 the head stones have been all but useless. Range is too short, hits are too slow and weak. I always felt the original intent was that the fire breath was for breaking guards by pummeling turtles into recoiling, with a bit of chip damage as a bonus. For that the original high stamina cost (and high stamina inflict against shields) with range and rapid hits was perfect. It was well balanced because users were always best served in laying short bursts to maintain their own stamina.

I'v always wanted to become an anorexic capra demon.

Submit

one of the things DS2 did better than the other two.

Submit

I always imagined a dragon transformation to be mighty and amazing... not some skinny dragon who doesnt have enough to eat.

When you surpass the level of fashion known to the Mortal realm......an Anorexic Deer.....

So, I pretty much used a black separation crystal on Hawkwood, and I have no idea where to find him again. I'm fairly certain that he's no longer going to show up in my world again. :[ Is there anything that can be done, or am I screwed to fight my way up the path alone.

Submit

I'm reasonably sure that using dragon stones doesn't count as wearing armor in terms of absorption, making dragon stones terrible. You take 25% extra damage for each piece of armor you're NOT wearing, so wearing no armor for the dragon stones means you take 100% extra damage (it's not multiplicative), basically like wearing the calamity ring. I'm pretty sure this is the case by comparing full dragon form to full master's attire, the weakest armor in the game. I took way more damage in dragon form. Needs proper testing.

Submit

Maybe if this thing has some poise and some wings even little stubby wings I'll probably use it more often but as it is it's ugly and useless

Submit

This needs poise, I mean like no interruption whatsoever, otherwise useless.

Submit

after i get the twinkeling dragon torso stone, i go to the firelink shrine like im supposed to to talk with andre, where he should give me hawkwood's swordgrass, i have the stone, and the old fart wont do the dialouge. what do i do? hawkwood isn't leaving and andre won't talk about hawkwood leaving.

Submit

Dragon form is bad.Like... Really bad

Submit

Has somebody noticed, when you are in Dragon form, and an enemy is abouve you, you deal damage with the head/ horns?

Submit

Can anyone help get info on about archdragon mirage and the dragon itself

Submit

Can someone test the max damage of this with a red tear stone ring, max faith/unit and 2 Mormon blades

Submit

The full dragonform does have some defenses. It has magic/dark absorb of 16.48, fire absorb of 32.66, lightning absorb of -15.44 (yes negative), and resistance to poison/frost/curse/bleed of 60. It has no physical damage absorption. I tried to add it to the entry myself, but it doesn't appear to have worked.

Submit

Just run as fast as you can. They won't follow you up the hill. Be careful unless htey box you in and then you die.

Submit

That aint dragon at all! That is some kind of starved deer who have AIDS. In DS2 dragonform was cool and i don't need to remove armor for henshin. In DS3 is useless and ugly.

Submit

Can you use it as many times as you want or is it a consumable that you have to farm through NG+?Pls tell me you can keep it forever..

Submit

max dmg of 536 @ 99faith/int. does not count as spell, hence: not boosted by sorc/miracle/pyro rings. can still be cast under vow of silence spell effect. boosted by flynn's ring (max 624 dmg). not boosted by Lloyd's Sword/Leo/Hornet or Clutch rings. boosted by deep protection (562). not buffed by warcry weapon art. there are some more things that could boost it, like red tearstone and stuff like that, but honestly...it's very underwhelming, especially since it costs a crapload of stamina and seems quite slow to cast. and the horrible defense and aesthetics of it make it even less useable

Submit

How can i remove it?

Submit

Damage of the dragon arms seem pretty low compared to the very long windup and I lose all my physical resistance. It's sad but it seems pretty useless to me..

Submit

remove your head\chest gear.

Submit

I have both the twinkling dragon head and torso, but it won't let me use them

Submit

Please show us what it looks like, I, and many others hate the other one, please let it be different.
