I'm Lvl 38, I've got a +4 set of hard leather armor, and the Drake Sword, but I can't seem to beat her even with help from a phantom. Is she weak to anything, or is there a particular item that would make this easier? I was stuck in the same place till I upgraded my weapon from the Drake Sword, I used a +10 Murakumo and ripped it apart. The best thing about changing weapons is you can the the gold pine resin on other weapons which ads a decent amount of damage.

The Crimson Set that is in Blighttown (in the giant wheel area) is an awesome armor set, but it also has great Fire resistance. Also, make sure your shield can resist a decent amount as well. I used an un-upgraded Hollow Soldier's Shield, which helped tremendously. Also, if you see the female part lay down on the spider and hug it, cut your losses and run away, she's about to explode. Don't get too greedy with attacks either, this is about the time when the Drake Sword starts being less effective unless you upgrade it (and even then it's not all that great.)

Eej posted:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvoeFbH8hHc That's pretty much how I did it. Havel's armor, +5 Black Knight Sword. They do WAY less damage with their melee swings if you are close in, so you just get right up in their face, switch to two handed, and go nuts. Just block when they do their explosion and dodge when they do the grab (both SUPER telegraphed) and keep swinging. With my gear I could kill a king 5-10 seconds before the next spawned, SUPER easy. EDIT: Forgot one trick that helped a bit: Eat a Green Blossom before the first one spawns, let's you burst them down much faster.

So I guess I should have read this thread before "eating" the Firekeeper I found just before the first bell. Please tell me that I will find another one of those things. I promise I will treasure it more this time

Oh hey, you can make a greatshield with the wolf's soul. I saw the option pop up on the list when I was making the crystal ring shield out of a +10 balder shield. I didn't see this on the list of boss weapon upgrades someone posted from the wikispaces site, so I thought I'd share that with you all. I'd post the stats, but I already converted the shield I had. I'm upgrading another shield to +10 soon, I'll update then. EDIT: Also I'm sitting in Anor Londo after putting up my gravelord eye of death, and I've noticed the main entry way fog up for awhile before it dissipated. I think someone was trying to invade me and just failed to connect. Will my gravesign keep trying to connect to new people, or am I wasting time by sitting here waiting?

Quinch posted:I was using the +5 fury sword because it is so good, but on a whim decided to fully upgrade the zweihander to lightning +5. Holy goddamn, 730 damage. It gets resisted down a bit sure but the 4 guys past the locked door in the forest all die in 1 R2 hit (the axe guy must be weak to lightning because I hit for 850 damage). Honestly, I am starting to consider longswords one of the best weapons in the game. Furysword is great, though, and potentially one of the few good options for dex stacking.

gently caress, attempt 21 was looking good, now I know I can block his attacks...until I blocked and got knocked back towards the edge, had just enough momentum to fall off  he was half way dead too. Oh well, definitely know I can do this now!

Morham posted:gently caress, attempt 21 was looking good, now I know I can block his attacks...until I blocked and got knocked back towards the edge, had just enough momentum to fall off Stock up on Firebombs, take off all your armour When you enter the area, edge forward until you trigger him to jump out then immediately sprint back to the ladder to the left of the opening (kill the two skeletons up there before the fight). Get your rear end up there and immediately do a plunging attack down. The timing on this isn't too harsh. Once that's done just roll away, keep your shield up and throw some firebombs. Make sure you take about 15 into the fight with you. I also recommend that you find/buy a shield that blocks 100% of physical damage as then you're only managing your stamina as you'll be able to block every hit provided you have enough stamina to take the hit

Hahaha, I get invaded by "Man Eater Mildred" in Blighttown, she goes down in about 4 hits. Drops 4 Humanity and 10k souls. Then I'm able to summon her as a phantom and she practically soloed Queelag

I like how this game implies that sometimes a player will gently caress you over, and sometimes they will help you. Just depends on the circumstances, really.

I've read that you will be able to summon Lautrec to help you fight the gargoyles and gaping dragon if you free him. I didn't see his sign there though, only Solaire's. For future reference, anything special you have to do to get him to show up?

You may also have to go back to Fireshrine and talk to him first.

I think they scripted it well (not sure if it was fluke) but I saw mildred run around first as if looking for me, then she kinda stopped as if getting stuff ready before noob charging me.

How do you summon random NPCs?? Is it from the stone the sun knight gives you? Obviously must be in human form but is there something else I am missing?

Have the white soapstone, be in human form, and keep a lookout for white signs which you can examine to summon another player. Some of the NPC's only appear after you kill their invading form. Others you have to talk to before they will show up for some bosses.

Just find their signs on the ground (usually right before you enter a boss area), sometimes they're obvious, sometimes they're hidden.

Once you've done that, though, they're always available (one will always be up and the other down, so you can go in either direction).
