What's a good place to farm titanite chunks?

I'd like to get my Uchi to +15 before I kill the Iron Golem. :v:

You can kill Ingward with a bow and drain New Londo and kill the darkwraiths for chunks and the mythical slabs.

Also, don't worry about the golem if you think your damage isn't up to snuff. Just summon TARKUUUUUUUUSSSSSSS!!!!!

I know, this is mostly over-preparation for anal rodeo and Kenan and Kel, once they're done I'll head to the archives, farm 99 humanity then spend a week or two assisting others against Jonah and The Whale. With those mighty profits I'll probably just go apeshit upgrading gear and making spare weapons.

CJ and Big Smoke went down super easy, even the shittiest pubbie can provide a good distraction while you kill either one. I also had my first straightforward invasion, no twink poo poo, just a straight fight, I only won because I know how to cancel the recovery animation from when you fall and had enough time for sippy while the other guy was standing up.

Also took out the 4 kings, I HAVE THE RED EYE ORB WOOHOO.

I'm 62, where can I invade? I'll probably get annihilated but I'd like to see what its like to invade for once.

At 62 you are unlikely to find targets outside of the forest (huge pvp zone), Duke's archives, tomb of the giants and the DLC zones. You can only invade down to like 55 or 56, and levels that high are rare even in Anor Londo. If you do invade in AL you're likely to end up with NG+ dark AL guys who are waiting to gank you or are doing mass PVP against darkmoons.

e: also, maybe the painted world, but these days I hear there isn't as much PVP there as there once was.

Well that doesn't sound like any fun at all. :smith:

Hello, I just started out this game as a Sorceror and am still currently in the Undead Asylum. I have the Healing Arrow spell but I don't seem to have a catalyst so that I can cast them. Is that what's supposed to happen?

Keep going bro, you'll find it as you do the asylum.

Complaining about memes in video games, truly an artform for sophisticated gentlemen.

Is there a meme attached to it? Its just flippy havels 2.0 as far as I'm concerned.

I guess complaining is a moot point, it will probably be the norm till people get bored of it and move on to the next thing.

Has anyone else seen this happen?



A sneaky Undead Parish invader was being very evasive for a while until he tore off across the bridge, and ran to where Solaire first hangs out. After arriving there we played run-around-the-stairs for a few laps until I lost sight of him, and it looked as though he'd clipped through the wall in the middle of the steps. Eventually I concluded he'd given me the slip and had run back over the bridge to the Parish - but after a lot of searching I went back and found him down there, just by clicking the lock-on button repeatedly.

He was AFK by the time I found him, and I luckily had some black firebombs (which just barely made contact) to punish his misdeeds. I wasn't able to get down there myself though, and haven't successfully dug up any info on doing it. Just wondered if anyone here knew what happened / how it's done?

What was this?

I've seen speedrunners do a crazy skip in the parish where they somehow end up on the lower burg, maybe he did part of it to get down there.

What's GiantDad? My cursory googling suggests that it involves the Mask of the Father and Giant's Armor, and a whole poo poo ton of endurance. I am intrigued- could someone tell me more? I'm not very far into the game and haven't actually had any experience with these items.

So I finally finished the Onion bro quest line.

Did I do something wrong? I followed it properly, he didn't even get hit during the battle where he helps me in the Lost Izalith, then I find his daughter with him and he's dead in ash lake

I'm hoping in DS2, Backstabs get slightly more limited in how they can be pulled off against players.

I don't know how to *fix* backstabs, but just feel like they could be *fixed* to be less aggravating with lag taken into account.

I think they should be backstabs, as in only work when I'm behind you, not I'm at your left shoulder, suddenly I'm behind you and stabbing you in the back.
