I just started this today - is there any way to counter the guys with spears? Maybe I'm just bad at it...

Roll around them when they lunge, and hit them in the back.

Oh, thanks. Kinda forgot you could roll, heh. Although that should be second nature because I've been instinctively hitting square to try a Nathan Drake stealth attack.

Search around / do some research before you ever use a demon soul, since it may have another use.

They do? Hrm, I guess I should start over since I instantly cashed in the Phalanx soul to buy some stats.

I have a 2-2 question.

Do you have to get to the boss by taking the right path and dropping down all those bridges into the bottom of the pit? I've only managed to make it to the bottom in one piece once. As far as I can tell, the left path is just for crystal lizards.

I've cleared all of worlds 2, 4, and 5 but I can't beat the goddamn Maneater and I'm going to start murdering soon I'm afraid.

Evacuate. Let's you warp back to nexus from any location, including boss battles, WITH your souls.

Hmmm, I tried using evacuate during the 3-3 boss battle last night and it definitely didn't work. Maybe that's because it's PVP though. Oh well, I didn't really need those 22,000 souls anyway :smith:

Dumb question, but you are using a Talisman to cast evacuate, right?


Yep, I had to roll around like a madman and use 3 or 4 grasses to get into the equip menu and pull out my Talisman of God and even then I still couldn't cast it even with full MP.

Why didn't you go back to the Nexus and spend them after 3-2? The first thing you do after beating a boss should be using its archstone.

Well I'd already spent about 60,000 and that was what was leftover. I figured after the 3-2 boss some pubbie fight couldn't be that bad. I was wrong!

The only way I was able to beat Maneater was by using Warding. He can barely touch you if you have that on.
