So are any high-level melee characters using anything other than Drake's Sword so far? I'm thinking Astora's Straight Sword might be a good replacement after a lot of upgrading. Then again I'm not good at stats and equipment and all that.

It took me a good 20 minutes, but I ravaged the poo poo out of Gaping Dragon. I hosed that oval office so drat hard with my Halberd, I'm feeling pretty exhausted from the fight. I was freaking out because it was the first time I had ever fought a dragon, but after a couple rounds the I learned all the right moves and it became pretty trivial. Now I'm wondering if I should go to the watchtower basement and check that shizz out or if I should continue on and explore blight town. I loving love this game.

Sheit. I said "no" when I talked to him because I didn't want to join a covenant yet. I went back recently and he wasn't there. So am I hosed out of online play then?

So my brother grinded a couple thousand souls to plonk it down on some faith and attunement on his warrior so he could use Soul Arrow. It turns out he doesn't have the right item to cast these spells in the first place. Just what kind of item do you need exactly? the wiki's not giving me a straight answer, and i would think that there has to be another way other than going to the lower undead burg to rescue a pyro.

Mug posted:So just to ask again, what's the layout for getting from blighttown back to someone who can repair my poo poo? I know where the second bonfire is in blighttown, is there any shortcuts anywhere at all? Maybe after the boss? The only way I know is to exit towards the Valley of the Drakes, then go down to Londo Ruins, then take the elevator there up to Firelink then go to the Burg and buy the drat repair box from either the merchant, or the blacksmith there. But there could be a simpler way. Seriously though, that repair box is necessary.

You need a catalyst. (clever name) They aren't dropped often, but there's a dude you can rescue in the Burg that'll give you it once you talk to him back in Firelink.

Sarcophallus posted:covenant walkthrough Really helpful, thanks. Had no idea it was so involved, I thought it was just a non-intuitive boss kill order. Guliani is HOT posted: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. I don't know the exploit; I guess I'll be burning through these Transient Curses.

So friend picked up the game and I was excited to help catch him up to speed as I'm near the start too, wrote my summon in front of where he said he was and turns out it wasn't on his screen or anything so, kinda confused how this works. Anyone got it figured out?

So I just attacked a hollowed female NPC behind a fence (a shortcut in undead parish area, i believe?) I wasn't thinking anymore and swung because this game is making me loving crazy and it was too late when I noticed she was just standing there and now she backed away and just keeps yelling at me so now I think I'm hosed. Was she a merchant? Should I just move on? I don't want to have to start my game over or anything

I think you can pay tons of souls to the guy in the belltower to forgive your sins, but I'm not 100% that it'll help. You're pretty hosed, though, yes. She's the only one nearby that sells anti-curse (for loving 6000 SOULS! God drat)

You can make her friendly again by talking to the dude in the gargoyle tower, its expensive (2k souls times your soul level I think)

So after banging my head against the wall that is Capra Demon for a while I ambled over to Darkroot Garden to have a look. Definitely worth the trip for anyone stuck on the Capra Demon. I haven't explored Darkroot Basin much at all, but at a certain point in the Garden is a light door, beyond which enemy giant things that slow you appear. If you hug the right wall as you enter and pretty much sprint forwards you can grab Elite Knight's Armor, which is the same stuff the dude at the start of the game was wearing (the item descriptions even call attention to it). I still haven't beaten Capra Demon, but I got him to really low health and he's so much less of a wall because the Elite Knight's Armor and Knight's Shield means you can block two of his small swipes. The main problem I have is that my strongest weapon is my Scimitar+2 which only seems to be doing 30 damage a pop to him. Any other advice? I don't really want to get the Drake Sword, just as a matter of honor.

How is everyone getting cursed so much anyway? So far I've only been cursed twice, once by accident and once on purpose. Isn't there just one or two small areas of the game where it is even possible?

Gah I finally went back to kill the Hydra after forgetting him for a long time, and this boss is way more frustrating to me than the Capra Demon. The Hydra is stupidly easy, just stand there and block the lunge and then attack. Unfortunately, every time I get it down to one head, the final head doesn't even try to attack me, it just lunges halfway across the screen at a distance that is impossible to reach in time to attack (even with no equipment on). Then I run over there, and he lunges to the other opposite side of the screen. Like three times in a row I've gotten him down to one head and then just left after 20 mins of him avoiding me. If you try to lock on to do a ranged attack it just locks onto the main body, so sniping the final head won't work either. What the heck is going on here?

This has probably been asked and explained in detail a lot but I'm really trying to avoid as many spoilers as I can so I can't really go searching for answers. Basically, a friend told me that his friend told him that when you encounter the Red Drake you can shoot the tail off to get a sweet sword. Can anyone give further details on that? I mean, it's not exactly a big target and my bow is awful which, unless there's another area you can fight him besides the bridge, means it looks to turn into an even more tedious and even longer process than either dragon fight from Demons' Souls. Can I use magic instead or does it have to be arrows? And if so, is there a decent bow anywhere near that general area? (I've just rung the Undead Parish's bell)

Satanos posted:This has probably been asked and explained in detail a lot but I'm really trying to avoid as many spoilers as I can so I can't really go searching for answers. Yes. If you're on that walkway underneath the bridge you can hit it quite easily. I used the short bow I got from the merchant in undead burg and about 35 of the shittest arrows. It's already been discussed quite a bit but yeah, can't expect people to keep up with such a fast moving thread.

Defiant Sally posted:Hmm there sure are a lot of red messages here "Watch left" Okay sure let me just clear this poison OH COME ON WHAT THE gently caress. There's one about midway through on a wide stone walkway. Its pretty much on the main path so you can't miss it unless you skip a few levels by falling. There's another one all the way at the bottom in the swamp. Look for the stone archway.

Dark Souls' facebook just posted XBLA Avatar content. Never thought I'd see Demon's Souls get gayed up on that level. It's kind if like seeing your favorite band sell out. Just seeing a dumb looking avatar with a generic sports jersey eqip a black knight hemlet with that Wii ripoff music playing in the background is weird.

Anyone know how to make poisoned weapons? Googling tells me raw weapons are poison, which they arent. I've upgraded a winged spear to +5 raw and there is no poison effect. Then it tells me I need +5 divine then upgrade but that doesnt work either.Guliani is HOT posted:So are any high-level melee characters using anything other than Drake's Sword so far?
