Drake Sword is totally worth it if anyone is wondering.

If anyone else is having trouble kicking, you have to basically jerk the stick forward  at the same time you hit R1. If your guy actually moves you were too slow.

Dr. Video Games 0029 posted:How do I manually aim with bows and crossbows? LB, LT, and RB all fire, RT makes my character do this weird jerk movement, none of the d-pad directions do anything, and the face buttons do what they always do. I'm pretty sure you can only aim w/ regular bows. Make sure you're wielding it with two hands, then hit L1 (on PS3).

So I killed the Gargoyles, rang the bell, killed the Butterfly & Havel, where should I go to next?

bewilderment posted:So what's the best way to get past that first dragon? I managed to get down below once or twice but thanks to poor judgement and silliness I died to the two guys down there. Sprint to the stairs, then look around down the stairs cause there's a ladder you can kick down to get to a bonfire. Then after that you can kill those guys and snipe his tail.

I'm playing as a warrior, I got the flame and I bought a spell, but I don't know how to use magic. Do I need to "attune" it or whatever? What do I need to raise/obtain to get attunement slots? Is it worth pursuing? I just beat the Gaping Dragon, stuck my nose in Blighttown and of course got clubbed to death. Are there any side areas I should have explored by now to get some rad equipment? I've already killed the Butterfly and Havel but nothing else that I can think of.

Jimbot posted:Is the special roll worth getting 20 Dexterity for? I'm trying to weigh in the benefits. I only have 12 Dexterity, though and the points can go into other things like Intelligence. Thoughts? I killed them about 10-20 times and didn't get any drops. What's the trick to getting them to fall off?

I hate watching these youtube videos of guys methodically picking apart bosses and being all like "yeah, this boss is really lame" and beating them on the first try. I think Quelaag was the first boss fight I've actually enjoyed so far. Not too cheap, plenty of opportunity to dodge.

Post-Quelaag question: So I told the creepy egg sac guy next to the bell room I wasn't a servant and now he won't talk to me, but I see in this other vid you can just attack him and walk through to upgrade your estus. Is that cool or will that gently caress things up for me? And where should I go to next? Also, is the Drake Sword worth upgrading? Has anyone found a better weapon so far? chunkles fucked around with this message at Oct 7, 2011 around 01:25 |

Rough Lobster posted:So, is a mostly ranged character viable at all? I noticed there was a hunter starting class. I think that would make this game even more frustrating, and its not like it needs any help in this regard. Crowbear posted:That's a separate thing. It's the person who will upgrade your Estus Flask that inducts you into that covenant. Alright, thanks.

Revitalized posted:Great! I just beat the last boss and opened the door to Blighttown! Now the question is where in blighttown do I find it! But gently caress those big enemies I have no idea how to describe its location but you have to go back and make a pretty big leap to get it. It sucks anyway.

Guliani is HOT posted:I'm told there is a bonfire up there, I'm trying to find it myself. Found it. Once you get outside on the roof (where the dude starts throwing firebombs at you), you go up two staircases and then there's a break in the railing that you fall off of and land at the bonfire.

Organic Robot posted:What's the quickest way up to the surface from Demon Ruins? There was a gate at Blighttown that led to The Valley of the Drake but I don't have the key to go from there to New Londo. I'm pretty sure the key is in a chest on the ladders before that. I cant remember exactly but it might be right next to the last ladder before the The Valley of the Drake SUPER NEAT TOY posted:What's that mini-boss beneath the smith called?

Ovo posted:Well after ringing the first bell I am a little stuck. After ringing the bell the only path seems to be go all the way down to the start and go to blighttown, but this thread seems to be suggesting that its hard as gently caress and I'm only SL 17ish. The only path open to me is to run past the demon below the smith into some awful wood with tree men who loving bite me in half, or to grind up souls to buy the forest gate key from the smith. Something tells me I am just too low level, I rushed through most of the place since this is my 2nd character, I wanted to check out another class and pick up the sword from the bridge dragon. Go down to the Depths, they are actually not that hard, just DON'T loving GET CURSED. And you shouldn't be having too much trouble with the trees either, although there's nothing you need down there. In retrospect, though, I would've grinded up for the forest gate key before going to the depths etc.

Hy_C posted:I'm currently in Blighttown and worked my way there from the dragon area. Now after killing the boss and working my way back there's a huge looking bug thing sitting here on the wall. Is there a way to kill it? It destroyed me when I tried to get near it. You can kill it with arrows, or I think there's a path you can use to go behind it. There should be a really tall ladder right around that area that you can follow to get behind it. I didn't do that so I'm not sure if you can backstab it or fight it or something, I just noticed that following that path drops you behind where it is

dongsweep posted:So am I gimping myself a lot by keeping my equipment under 25% of my total allotted weight? I enjoy the fast flip and it seems like if I go over 25% I struggle to get back up a little faster. I feel like I am gimping my character by dumping all my points into endurance. Yeah, I'm pretty sure thats how it works. I did pretty well with <50% endurance for awhile, but then I put on Havel's Ring and made sure to keep it under 25% and I think it's a little better.

The Wise Teen posted:There aren't even any enemies there! It's the narrowest one at the top with the bunch of 4 at the end. I don't think there's room to stand in between any of them. I made it through once by accidentally jumping, where I hit one but didn't take damage or fall off. Then I promptly died to the cannonballs on top of the tower. Once you get up there again, light the bonfire (immediately run up two staircases after you get outside, then there's a break in the railing that you fall off of to land next to the bonfire)

Filthy Monkey posted:It is in Sen Fortress. You need to ring both bells first. You should be going up to the chamber where the balls come from. There's a small side passage (the one that's smaller than the doors the balls go out of). I actually didn't explore that whole area, but I know if you do it right it's possible to run up from the way you enter there

I assume you found it by now, you've just gotta follow the path till you get to it, it's guarded by one of the zombies with flames. -- How do transient curses work? Is there any way to tell when they're active? And how long do they last? (I'm assuming they run out cause the ghosts in New Londo started killing me)

I used the Crest of Artorias to open the door in the woods. Now I'm inside, but I do a tiny amount of damage to the ghostlike/transparent guys, and I can't target them. How do I deal with them? Do I have to use a Transient Curse every time? Either that or be actually cursed. You can lead one of them off the cliff using that exploit but there's at least one other that shoots arrows at you, just avoid him.

Sarcophallus posted:Once you've opened the door in the woods (Good job!), you go straight through that area toward the other end. Eventually you'll find a very long, narrow bridge and a giant set of doors. Passed that is the first boss you need to beat the join the Darkwraiths. Kill him and you'll get a ring among your looties. Which boss is that? And also at what point can you not join them? I've already gotten to Anor Londo but not beaten any bosses yet.
