Quite a few weapon and magic/miracle changes coming in this Dark Souls 3 update. As usual it’s a little difficult to figure out specifics, because the patch notes just say things like “improved” or “lowered”. DLC items like the Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords are getting another pass. They’ll now use less stamina per swing and have increased attack power (yikes), but will also have “reduced rotation capabilities”. Also, their weapon art will no longer work if you have insufficient FP.

Elsewhere, the Sunlight Straight Sword looks like its having its Strength and Dexterity scaling reduced. A couple of outright bugs are getting quashed too. Here’s the changelog for Dark Souls 3 1.14.

Fixed issue where the first spell would disappear if either Seething Chaos or Crystal Hail is used twice in succession.
In PvP battles, the 2nd attack of the Call to Stone (skill for Ledo’s Great Hammer) attack can now be cancelled by rolling immediately after successfully delivering a different attack to the enemy.
