Preordered because of the ongoing LP, and I've been trying really hard to stay away from too many spoilers. I'm excited to die when it's finally released!

Just started, now in the Undead Burg! This is my first time playing, so I thought I could defeat the first Black Knight. That didn't go as well as I was hoping it would.

YES! I just beat the Taurus Demon! After 3 tries, and 2 uses of the lightning resin, the bastard's dead! Quick question though, I ran across the bridge the dragon fires on, and there's a bonfire and a wrecked statue. I thought I could get the Praise the Sun gesture from it, but there's no prompt or anything. Am I missing something? I just want to be more like Solaire.

tractor fanatic posted:You need to help a few people beat bosses with the white soapstone Solaire gives you Aha, gotcha. Do I need to beat the boss first? Also, I'm not very good at this game, so if I die before the bosses are done, would it still count?

So after Solaire trivialized the Gargoyle fight for me, I'm thinking of helping folks with it. I had a lot of trouble summoning folks for my fight (hence just going with Sunbro), should I expect to wait around for a while? Or can I lay the sign, and then run off to farm Balder knight souls or something?

MoonwalkInvincible posted:You can totally farm the Baldur Knights and others, but if you leave the Parish area (for example to go back to Andre's bonfir, or to Firelink) then your sign will disappear until you place it again. Uhhh, it may be premature, because when I restarted the game the load game option was gone . The only thing different I think I did was change the name of my gamertag on GFWL.

MoonwalkInvincible posted:Savegames are stored in some folder named after your gamertag. Change your GFWL name back, or just go into the files and change the name of that folder to your new name. Phew, thank you. I was worried there. Well, if anyone wants a lvl 24 knight to help them with the Gargoyles, I am willing to fall off the roof for you!

Man, does anyone have recommendations on how to beat Havel? That, or which bonfire should I start from, because he's a little awkward to get to from the main Undead Burg one (the one with the ladder). So far my tactic has been to take off my knight's pants so I get the faster roll, and then pyromancy him with combustion on a +5 glove, but drat my eyes one loving hit and I'm down. I WANT HIS SOUL. Also, what's the use of the Moonlight Butterfly's soul? I don't want to just use it for souls, but is it useful for a strength guy?

Havel is dead, praise the sun! Thanks for the advice, backstabs worked perfectly on him. Now it's off to the depths so I can get poisoned! (Oh God how do I increase my poison resist)

So after not getting any bites on the gargoyles last night, I'm hoping to help people with the Gaping Dragon. Is 30 too high for it?
|
# ¿ Aug 25, 2012 19:27 |

Alright, well I've put my sign down by the bonfire in the depths, so if anyone needs some help with the Gaping Dragon hit up FriarRJohn. Edit: I'm SL 30, if that makes any difference.

Man, a lot of Knight Shield/Drake Sword combos in the Depths. One of my hosts even bought a crystal shield before the dragon, but we beat it.

Yes! I am now a warrior of sunlight! Is it worth it to put the 9 levels into faith to be able to use it, or should I stick with the pyromancy, and just feel good about sunbroing it up?

MoonwalkInvincible posted:Whatever you want! It's a good spell, but the question is do you think you'll also want to use other Mircales in the future as well? With more attunement slots, you can compliment the lightning spear with other nice stuff like Heal. And some of the miracles later in the game are very good, if you're willing to invest even further in faith. Argh so many choices! After the utter windfall of souls I got helping folks with the Depths, I upgraded my flame from +5 to +15, so I think for now I'll just stick with that. I can still praise the sun!

Lautrec... That's enough Dark Souls for me today. But if anyone's got some tips on what I should do on the swampy bottom of Blighttown, please give me what advice you think is necessary.

Phew-ee, Sen's fortress got a little hairy right before I found the bonfire. If anyone wants a sunbro to help with the boss, FriarRJohn (SL: 38) will be at the top of the tower.

Err, where should I look for summon signs for help with Priscilla? She one-shots me with that scythe of hers. Or does anyone in the thread mind helping me? I'm in the upper 40's in my SL.

hcenvirons posted:Just before Blight Town Boss there's a random NPC in all black robes in the swamps. I kind of murdered him because, hey, he's wearing terrifying looking robes and just chilling there. Does he do something incredibly important? She, actually. Unless there's another vendor, you lost out on advanced pyromancies.

OK, now I definitely need to send out an SOS. If you wish to help some poor bastard defeat Priscilla and get out of the Painted World of Ariamis, I need your help! SL: 49, if that makes any difference.

Huhbluh. bluh. Ornstein & Smough can run a train, that's for sure. If anyone wants to lay a summon sign down by the first bonfire in Anor Londo, I'd appreciate the help.

Had my first real taste of PVP today, when I got invaded in the forest. I defeated the first two at the same time (that made me cheer!), but the 3rd guy got me when I didn't have anymore Great Combustions to throw at his face. Fun!

Just started the DLC stuff, had a tough time with the Guardian but took him down after a few tries. Is upper 50's an acceptable level?

Man, I didn't have any trouble with those archers when I ran through Anor Londo myself the first time, but when I sunbroed there was always something that went wrong.

gently caress Artorias. loving fucker who blows through my shield that can withstand drat near anything else, laughs off my +15 great combustions like nothing, and then has the bullshit temerity to CHARGE UP like a GODDAMN SUPER SAIYAN just so he can one-shot me and ARGH.

After getting murdered enough times by (do I need to spoil this now?)Artorias he's finally dead, and I'm planning on running a sunbro train on him all night long until I am satisfied.

Where should I look for summon signs for Kalameet? I'm hoping to get his tail, and it looks easier with other folks to help (he says after just having done so with someone else).

tractor fanatic posted:Kalameet seems very hit or miss. I've occasionally seen signs there when I was waiting for help with the tail, but usually it's empty. It's a fun place to farm invaders though because they never look there, and usually end up falling off a cliff somewhere. I'd just rather not fight him myself again and waste this humanity I've used. :/

Stokes posted:For the longest time I was under the impression that once you've beaten the boss of an area it was no longer possible to invade someone there, but I guess that's wrong? Because I invaded someone in Darkroot Garden after beating Sif. I guess it only matters if the host hasn't beaten the boss yet? Exactly, it only matters for the host.
