I know, because I did. it doesn't make them less bullshit because the space you have to deal with them to avoid aggroing the other is relatively tiny in comparison to how huge they are.

What's a decent dex weapon you can have after the catacombs?

I've been running around with a +4 refined broadsword for a while and its done me alright, but I'm wondering if there's something more efficient that I'm missing.

The Lothric Knight Sword can be gotten from one of the sword wielding knights in Undead Settlement and it's fantastic because if you've played DS1 and it's the Balder Side Sword renamed.

That area is really, really intriguing and I wish The Shrine Handmaid there gave us anything more to go on. I think that's Lothric's intended Firelink shrine, swallowed by the abyss after he stalled his quest but its hard to tell.

I don't think that's the deal with Untended Graves per se.

The opening says that Lothric is where the "transitory lands" of the Lords of Cinder converge, Cornyx talks about how Izalith has "drifted" close. It seems that kingdoms aren't just metaphorically lost to the ages, they're basically literally alternate dimensions that drift into and away from each other, LITERALLY disappearing into the mists of history etc etc.

My take is the First Flame is change and potentiality incarnate. From it spring infinite possibilities, infinite worlds. The Untended Graves is just one such reality fragment drifted into conjunction with the one we occupy.

I kind of just picked left or right wall and followed it. Once I had explored enough of a section's outskirts I'd check out the raised sections in the middle.

You know what, I'm going to make a super lovely MSPaint map.

You can also kind of keep track by what enemies are around.

Where is Anri supposed to show up at in the church of yorshka? I'm looking around but she doesn't seem to be in here. I killed her knight dude before killing the wolnir so I think I met the requirements for her to show.

I'm gonna be honest with you.
I'm not sober enough to be able to keep track of the specific enemies around me.
So at farron keep it's either slugs or giant assholes what gently caress me up.
I'm gonna go invest on that sweat pyromancy that increases my poison resist

Who the gently caress thought fake backstabs against enemies were a thing this series needed? Yes it sure is fun getting locked into an animation that does nothing while a giant knight turns around and smacks you with his greatsword. Guess you shouldn't of tried to attack while at the magic distance behind an enemy where a backstab doesn't work properly???

And I think my head is burning,

To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Apparently she's meant to be in the Catacombs twice - once when you first meet her, and secondly on the rocks before the bridge before the final boss. I think we may have both missed her that second time?

The boss of Untended Graves is the hardest thing I have fought in this game so far. That was a learning experience. :shepicide:

They are basically broken in PvP too, you can just roll out of them and make the other guy stand there like a dumbass. I've never seen a backstab actually work in PvP so far.

Maybe someone else closer to your level range? I'm level 95, but I thought password matching downscales everything to match the host's level so it wouldn't matter?

What's the item in front of Wolnir? I didn't run and grab it because I figured it was an obvious trap, attacked the bones, and then ended up killing him in one go without taking it. I'm assuming you can't get back into the arena, so I hope it wasn't something cool!

CONFIRMED. To find her you have to go back over the bridge and up to the top of the rocky outcrop and she'll just be standing there plain as day.

There is a catch. Crossing the bridge aggros EVERY skeleton in the room on the right. You have to kill them all. All twenty of them. The real Dark Souls starts here.
