Crowbear posted:On the floor bellow the door to the Taurus Demon there's a locked door that you can open with the master key. Behind it is a looooooooong winding staircase and he's waiting at the bottom. Is that the armored guy with the big rolling pin weapon? Dude killed me three times and took all my souls

Sultan Tarquin posted:Brigand? I guess it's leather? I tried it with no armour on and I still can't make it :I As someone else mentioned, there is a way to get on the roof of that house, and the jump is a lot easier there. I think that you get there by going past the sneak attack skeleton near the first merchant but I can't remember off hand.

Played about an hour into my first game, including beating the Asylum Demon, with my HUD turned off. REAL DARK SOULS BABY I still like to turn it off from time to time, it makes the game even more immersive.

Havel... you loving shitlord He's been pushing my face in all game (I'm playing a tanky guy and can't circle strafe for poo poo) and I FINALLY figured out a way to kill him easily: lure him to the top of the tower and step outside to the staircase. He will retreat, and if you step inside the tower he will come at you and take ONE swing before retreating again. I was hitting him with fireballs from my +8 pyro hand, hitting him for about 240 points of damage per hit. I got him down to about 3% of his health, and the jackass launches himself into the abyss off the notch in the stairwell outside, taking his loving ring with him God I hate that rear end in a top hat so much

Drunk Souls is the best game. I got pretty lit last night and apparently I beat Sif, Sen's Fortress, picked up the lightning spear and got most of the way through Anor Londo. I have no recollection whatsoever of beating Sif

Paino posted:I'm in Anor Londo where you get sniped by the 2 black knights. This part is ruining the game for me. In the little platform where the three or four gargoyles are at before you make the dash upstairs, you can snipe the knight on the right side with poison arrows from the right edge of the front left pillar. If you position yourself correctly the left side knight won't be able to see you and the right side knight (who you are shooting at) will only hit the pillar Q-sixtysix fucked around with this message at 13:39 on Oct 31, 2011 |

Marogareh posted:I also didn't find that place rage inducing as others have since it's so easy to run up to the one on the right and bait him to fall. ToG without a light source in the beginning and fighting the skeledogs which rips through full Havel+shield with the four chomps on the other hand was far worse for me. I waited until I got the Sunlight Maggot before making my ToG run, and it's pretty enjoyable. I dipped my toes in the Tomb when I picked up the light spell, but it was a pain in the rear end, so I came back later. Anyone hating on the ToG should really go pick up the sunlight maggot first, that area is pretty fun when you've got a hands free light source

Well I was all ready to go beat Gwyn, and I decided to go lay a summon sign down in front of O&S for laffs. I was level 94. I got summoned by a level 84 player on his first playthrough  He summoned another guy and we went into private chat. I told the summoner to keep back and keep us healed, and me and the other phantom went to TOWN on the bosses. Got S first and then O, barely took any damage. The summoner was so happy he almost cried. I also dropped a Black Knight greatsword and Black Knight sword for him cuz I had extras. Then I went back to the Kiln, summoned a phantom, killed an invader, and went and CRUSHED Gwyn. NG+ for me. I love this game

Safe Driver posted:Aggro them with a bow and run like the dickens to a spot they cannot reach you, they'll kill each other. There's some tangled tree roots kinda near the back of the area that works well. Alternatively, bring a thousand arrows and kick back, hitting their big fat asses while you drink beer for an hour. That's what I did and Lost Izalith was a snap

I found out what the language with the separation crystal means. The one where it says it's detrimental to relations. I used it on sunbro since I needed to use the bonfire, and his summon sign disappeared. I don't think he's coming back

FART BOSS posted:Huh, I've used it on him and he always came back. Really? That's a relief. This was in Anor Londo, by the way. I was making a run through to open the shortcut, saw his sign on the stairs and decided to summon him even though I only had two estus left and had to fight O&S. He sign didn't come back after I rested, so I got all depressed. I still love you sunbro!

Sacrificial Toast posted:On the plus side, he didn't instantly try to smash your face in from any distance every time you even considered pressing the item button. That's definitely my least favorite thing about Gwyn. It's ridiculously hard to get a heal off without giving up an opportunity to attack. Don't forget, burning a humanity to heal is quicker than trying to chug an estus flask, too

If you REALLY can't deal with being invaded at a particular time for whatever reason, quit to dashboard. I did it yesterday because I needed to get back to my bloodstain for 80K souls and 4 humanity. Usually I don't, but hey, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Wrath of the Bitch King posted:Just stick to his rear end, he only has one move that you even need to remotely worry about, and that's his cast explosion. If you keep to his rear end you'll be fine, and trigger his butt-slam move which will give you enough time to get in a bunch of hits. actually I'm playing a mage with 18 vitality and no poise, so I've got plenty to worry about  Just got an interesting glitch: I spoke to Fraampt after I got the Lordvessel and he brought me down to the altar. I was worried that Big Hat was going to take off if I placed the vessel so I homeward boned back to Firelink, saw that he already left, and then jumped back down the hole and placed the Lordvessel. I then went off to Undead Asylum to offer my humanity to the Stray Demon, and when I came back to Firelink Fraampt gave me the dialog as if I had gone with Kaathe. What a whiny bitch, I haven't even gone to Anor Londo yet <  >

I can honestly say that Jeremiah has never killed me or a party member, and most of the time he doesn't even get a shot off. Like most NPC phantoms, once you know where he spawns you can camp him. I found out today that he is extremely resistant to magic. Had to do it the hard way with my enchanted falchion  also add me to the GT list. Onionbro
