Fina posted:He's in there somewhere. I don't know if you have to talk to him or not for him to show up later, but spoiled incase you want to keep looking: Check around the outside area where you first encounter the rolling boulders. Look over the side of the ramp for somewhere to fall. He actually sometimes doesn't show in the fortress, you shouldn't worry about it. No plot danger.

It seems like everybody likes O+S as a fight, but I get really annoyed whenever I die and I have to walk a million miles to get back to them.

Blighttown has a long rear end shortcut, but you don't actually need to fight the fat guys on your way back.

Are there any attacks in this game that you can't just weather by hunkering down in a shield? I was getting one-shotted by the Hydra head-burying attack until I stopped trying to roll away and just sat in place with the Eagle Shield up. It was like a tiny bit of stamina and hp damage, and I could zweihander like 4 of his heads at once. Could I have still done that with say, a +5 heater shield?

Sivek posted:My biggest point of frustration in the game probably. Just know that you can easily run past all the enemies that precede them. I don't know how much time I wasted killing those demon-gargoyle things until I realized I could blow right past them. I don't think I had a sweeter feeling in this game than successful parrying and riposting the archer on the right and getting clear of that section. It was likely the one time in the game where I successful parried/riposted with my life on the line. If you hit the two that are in the covered platform with arrows, they try and run after you and one of them will slip off the platform because they get in each other's way.

Nomadic Scholar posted:Any tips for fighting the hydra in the lake? Barigas of the Sunlight maggot has been getting naked and it's not working. Get close to the Hydra and it'll switch from magic attacks to melee. You need a decent shield and some weapon with fair reach to get him. Being naked probably won't hurt you, unless you're eating splash from his magic water. From Earth posted:Progress report: Both bells have been rung. Blighttown took me a couple of tries, but it wasn't too bad. The layout is confusing as hell, but there are no tough enemies (well, the giant things with clubs maybe, but you only have to pass them once to get to the next bonfire), and the blowdart guys not respawning was an uncharacteristically nice gesture by the developers. Cleared out the swamp, opened the shortcut back to the Firelink Shrine (which is now dead Go through Darkroot so you can get a useful ember for upgrading things. Then Sen's.

), and then beat Quelaag on the second try, thanks in part to a certain Maneater Mildred. Also, I met Frampt, which is just... 
At least it's nice to finally have a place where I can dump my excess Hollow Soldier Waitcloths.

Alteisen posted:What class should I start with, if my intent is to use the Zweihander as early as possible. You need like, 16 strength to use the Zweihander, you can pretty much get it as soon as you leave the asylum.

Nuns with Guns posted:Put a little space between yourself and the butt until the attack goes off, then run forward after the AoE. You'll get a couple hits in before it reacts and then you can circle behind its butt again. Queelaag is easy town if you're melee. You can hug her left arm and not get hit by any of her sword attacks, and she telegraphs everything else like crazy so you can always avoid lava and whatnot. She might be the only boss that's actually harder to kill in co-op. It's hard to tell if she is going to use that aoe attack if you can't see her human part because a spider butt is in the way.

Awesome Animals posted:Anyone with a level 45 character willing to assist me with O&S tonight? I've probably tried solo or Solaire 50 times and can't even get close. Any assistance would be appreciated. I'd be on around 9ish tonight CST Is 45 the maximum SL for you summon, or is it your own? I can show up around then, although I've never beaten Super Ornstein.

You're a little low on stamina, but thankfully the Zweihander will interrupt 90% of all enemy attacks so who cares? Go fish it out from somewhere in the graveyard, and play through Blight Town. Don't be a baby!

Suspicious Dish posted:I tried out the Zweihander but it has a really slow, uh, "start-up" animation which leaves me wide open. Is there a way to speed that up? I perhaps put a bit too much into Strength, I agree. Are you using it two-handed?

Suspicious Dish posted:Oh, is it faster two-handed? I've been using it one-handed. You'll make a wimpy slow attack if you don't have enough Strength, but using two hands increases Strength by 50%. You only need 24 for the Zweihander though, so you're fine on that front. Just play at farther range I guess. It's got like, more than twice the range of the Drake sword.
