Well I done hosed up and I descended my main weapon. I tried talking to the blacksmith to re-ascend it or at least upgrade it more. It wouldn't give me the option to ascend/upgrade it. Is this axe just a hunk of metal now or is there some way I can re-ascend it? Edit: I'm an idiot. Just had to talk to the first blacksmith.

Alright. I apologize for bothering with the questions. I'm in Anor Londo and the Giant Blacksmith and he's refusing to upgrade my axe. I have the required souls and the required materials but when I try to upgrade the axe it says "Not enough materials." Is there some way around this or is my axe just gonna stay at it's current level?

See I tried pvp but I was pretty put off when my lag was so terrible for some reason that I got backstabbed in the middle of a roll.

Awesome Animals posted:Oh my god, if Blighttown isn't the most stressful thing in this game. Between the framerate, and the narrow paths and the dart shooters, I don't know if I can get through it. I may be stuck at the first bonfire there for eternity. I have a seething white hot hatred for Blighttown. Yeah, I got past it and am currently on my way to murder the four kings, but I am still pissed a Blighttown. I'm not even sure I'll even playthrough the game again just because of Blighttown.

ChibiSoma posted:Ornstein/smough stuff. I'll admit, I agree that O+S is a bullshit the most bullshit fight in the game. However, if you still have the iron golem's soul then a pretty easy way to put em in their place is to use the 1 hand heavy on that and throw air at them all game. Doubly so if you bring along Solaire for jolly good adventures.

Tried my hand at pvp today using the ambush method. It's amazing just how many people run around in heavy gear and not pay attention to the environment. Chameleon is just so much fun to use as an ambush set up. Combined with the Gravelord Sword and your choice of force, grave sword dance, or acid mist, people just kinda drop left and right.

Good lord the Four Kings are an outright bastard to kill on a low level character. I tried using that Beatrice lady but she didn't do any good. She never even got agro. Any tips on dodging their explosion attack? I tried backing up away from it but it either ends with me still being close enough or catching a mass of homing magic up the rear end from one of the other kings.

Why the gently caress aren't there any goddamn summon signs in New Londo Ruins? Do people just do the Four kings and never bother going back? Edit: You know what? gently caress the four kings and gently caress trying to join the dark wraiths at a low level. Sick of going at them with a different weapon or some pine resins, only to have them go into hyper aggressive mode because I'm trying something other than "Bash them in the face." And I'm doubly sick of summoning with beatrice only to have her either die from the fall down or not do anything the entire fight.

ChibiSoma posted:Ah crap. You know, I feel bad when I die when someone's assisting me on a boss. Even if it's the last boss of the game and I die due to a dumb game mechanic that shouldn't exist. Feels like I'm wasting their time and I don't like that. You can look right in your "Players recently met" tab, select his name from there, and pm. I'm still struggling along with the four kings. I've died so much that I've run out of transient curses. Now when I enter the fog gate there's a 50/50 chance I'll get stabbed in the rear end via dark wraith thrusting through the fog to hit me. Really beginning to consider re-doing this assassin character. That or just getting rid of her completely.

Why does everyone use the same build online? I swear all I ever see are players with ridiculous amounts of health and stamina + heavy armor + a lighting weapon of some sort. Really makes pvp boring and less viable for any other kind of build. Edit: People disconnecting should not eat my red eye orb goddamnit!

Yardbomb posted:Because there's a bunch of people that don't wanna have creative or interesting fights, they just want some cookie-cutter build that gives free/easy wins. Most of the time it's the people in flippy-Giant/Havel + Pinwheel mask, big lightning weapons, TWoP or WoG and all that jazz. These people are still beatable, it's not that, it's just not fun to fight this same boring thing as often as you run into it. Problem is I set up for an ambush class and it doesn't work at all if people can just take the hit and keep trucking without being staggered. Edit: Also, gently caress the lag in pvp. Really tired of getting behind someone and hitting them without the back stab, but to have them back stab me via teleporting around me.

About how prevalent is hacking/cheating in this game? Just fought a guy who I hit, watched his stun animation from the hit, and took no damage. I then proceeded to throw 99 poison darts in him, hit him with two gravelord great sword dances, and beat his face in with three heavy attacks from the gravelord sword, with a stun animation on every hit, and he took no damage at all. Edit: Make that two. Edit2: Alright, what the gently caress is up with people in Sen's fortress being immune to everything? No damage from poison, nothing from the bow, magic doesn't hurt em, and simply beating them with my sword AND getting the hit animation doesn't do damage.

It's a pain in the rear end finding someone who isn't traveling with a buddy now. So far I've ran into absolutely nobody traveling without a buddy decked out in full heavy gear and wielding some big gently caress off weapon that one shots me. I can't really dodge it either since the guy I invaded normally just circles around backstabs me for a kill. Edit: Welp, just got backstabbed via hitting me while my character did the cast animation for sword dance. First time that's happened.

Does the bloodshield not have 100% physical reduction damage? It says it does in the stat page but some guy just cut through my shield with and unenchanted katana. I have plenty of defense so it should've blocked it just fine.

I know the axe was the black knight great axe. Don't know about the shield. But yeah, chameleon is the best spell to gently caress with people in pvp with. Anyway, ran down the depths for some easy humanities to give people and I counted no less than 20 statues of cursed players. I never realized it was possible to be cursed down there. I mean yeah the frogs can curse you but the curse meter builds up at such a slow pace I figured it was there to threaten you.
