I'm sure this is going to be a brutally stupid question, but I know I picked up a torch in the hag house. I can't find it in my inventory anywhere. I see an icon on the equip screen that looks like a torch with a 5 minute timer next to it, but I have no idea how to use it and I didn't see any gravestones with an explanation Edit: and there it is. I missed the toggle option at the bonfire.

I've been doing my best to summon for every boss fight I can, whether I've attempted it before or not.

Overbite posted:This game is way harder than Dark Souls or even Demon's Souls. I cannot beat the pursuer at all, even after wasting 2 effigys summoning people who were completely useless in the fight. The Heidie place is also too hard. You're going the right way. Fight the giant knights one at a time where possible. If you can't handle two at a time, some judicious scampering away works wonders for getting through the zone. They are some sloooow dudes. StarkRavingMad posted:I bought this key that says it opens a blacksmith shop in Majula, but it doesn't seem to open the only locked door I can find (on the big building). Am I missing an obvious door somewhere or is this gated behind something I need to do later? Yes, you are. Check EVERY house.

King of Solomon posted:I spent like twenty loving minutes trying to get out of that bonfire. Then it turned out I wasted all that time because I already got everything worthwhile from the area. Me too. I was absolutely sure I must be missing something because that bonfire's so weirdly placed, so I kept running a turtle gauntlet with like 4 or 5 of them chasing me at a time. Then I grew convinced that there was a secret wall to be destroyed when I saw one of the blast open a small opening I ran through while chasing me.

What's the significance of the small fires on the map of Drangleic in the mansion's basement? The message over top of the one flame I had said "This place again..." which I assume means it's where Majula is on the map. If it's story spoilers, just tell me it's a spoiler and I'll figure it out in its own time.

Acquire Currency! posted:Yep, people puss out all the time it's crazy. Ratbros get rattails if victorious to offer up most glorious rat king. If the person bails the only thing we get is the satisfaction of sending the person a message expressing the glory of the rat. The best part is I've got messages from guys who were worried why they got summoned to my world suddenly. Seems like something you shouldn't be able to crystal out of. I got summoned up the other night and got owned by a horde of a rats. Dude didn't even touch me, just sat on the sidelines watching. y'all are creepers.

Oh and has anyone else noticed that throwing knives AREN'T mostly useless anymore? In early game, at least, they're doing some respectable damage for me when pulling and I used them to help whittle down the Heide Knight in Forest of the Giants.

Alexander DeLarge posted:I'm sorry but I don't want to come home to a bunch of 12 year olds sitting in a group of mobs giggling saying "LOLITROLLU" on the microphone. I have better things to do than get ganked by a bunch of assholes that don't play fair. PvP in Dark Souls is not fair. The sooner you accept it, the happier you will be. Or burn some effigies or play offline. Not sarcasm, if you don't like the PvP, don't be a participant, you can avoid it and that's totally a valid decision on your part.

Mr. Kerstbal posted:Is the cracked blue eye orb working for you guys? Whenever I use it I just instantly get a "failed to find world to invade" message. It's weird because when I used cracked red eye orbs I always got invasions almost immediately, and all the other online stuff seems to work fine too... Unless there are unknown network issues (still a possibility!), it's likely that there just aren't enough people out there invading compared to the number of people who are Sentineling up. May be a few weeks before it really picks up.

ALSO I just read this, in Game Options, by default the online mode is set to Regional. So if you're willing to endure potential lag, you can change it to Global to open up matchmaking further.

Is there some trick I'm missing or do I just need more HP? Taking that route using the cat ring is going early (though manageable). There's a more convenient way down later.

NomChompsky posted:Pertaining to this: If you go into the church where you fight the Old Dragonslayer and look at the statues, the bodies look very, very similar to the statues of Gwyn and others back in Anor Londo. However, the heads look different. They look like eagles or some kind of bird, and it looks like they're made of a different kind of stone, or stone that hasn't weathered down as much. My guess is that it's a place that has just been built upon over and over again and eventually was swallowed by the sea. Not to mention, just a short boat/crow ride away is The Old Bastille, which literally has the undead parish in the middle of it, with even more rear end in a top hat gargoyles and a bell of awakening that you get to ring again! The Souls series is The Legend of Zelda from Hell including the repeated variations on a similar theme of history
