Things that are handy to know: - If you are having trouble with the gargoyles, go below the blacksmith and grind the woods. On the path to the butterfly you can easily stomp tree folk for quick souls and pick up some pretty decent gear. Great knight armor/wolf ring etc. The butterfly is a way easy fight as well. -Thief class sucks. Do not pick it unless you want to be violated over and over. -To evade the dragon and get to the bell tower faster, hide behind one of the sidewalls near the stairs for about 30 seconds. You will see it fly up from the tower doorway and try to land next to you. Run along one of the sides and hold the shield up. It will fly back and breath on you one more time, but if you have your shield up it should be enough for even the most squishy heroes. Hit the bonfire, enjoy not having to do a long rear end walk to the blacksmith.

doomfunk posted:I started as a thief and now I'm rocking a scimitar and wooden shield, poo poo's great. No idea what you're smoking, class means basically nothing once you sink about an hour into the game - EXCEPT the thief, considering they get the Master Key as a class component. Master key can be gifted and it's not fun to miss a parry leading to a 90%health drop for early game. Ask my new thief about getting stun locked to death every five seconds.

Stele007 posted:The fog ring completely breaks PvP. Most magic is completely worthless against someone using it since you can't target them. Everyone that invades me uses it. Do you HAVE to be a member of the Forest Hunter covenant to get it? It seems like I'll have to join it just so I don't get hosed over. No, you can trade a skull lantern at the crows nest for a fog ring later. Might want to get catacombs/tomb of the giants done as fast as possible if you want to get rid of it and snag it. Comrade Flynn posted:Holy poo poo I hate Sif. I've never had much trouble until this rear end in a top hat. gently caress him. I'm sitting out here waiting for someone to hopefully drop a summon sign. The trick is to stand right under him/her the whole time. Most of the bosses attacks will miss if you are right between the legs and gives you pretty much free hits the whole time. Even when Sif jumps, run/roll as fast as you can back under. Filthy Monkey posted:So how do I progress in the londo ruins? I found the dude on top of the building, but the only ways to go that I see are locked. I have the wolf's ring. If you want to join the Darkwraith covenant, kill the old man up there (after you buy his stuff, of course) and take the floodgate key. You can then hit the abyss if you have Sif's ring and kill the four kings early if you don't have the lord vessel. Just a warning though, if you do join these guys you later lose the ability to sell things for souls. Not sure if it was mentioned, but if any of you are having trouble with any boss and have a semi-decent melee build, you can pretty much crush 90% of everything with heavy armor/iron skin/and two handing the ever living poo poo out of it. Hamels armor and any weapon +10-ish will kill everything you come across. The only two bosses I have seen so far that this fails against is Executioner/Dragonslayer and Seath. Really loving this game now as a dex build after getting the right equipment for it. Finally got my red orb/armor from Darkwraith. +5 Priscilla's Dagger/+5 Lightning Iaido and a maxed out Dragonslayer Greatbow really just wrecks poor people in PvP.

Shalinor posted:When trading with the raven, can you do each trade once period, or is it once per game run? I've seen unclear information either way. One item period until NG+ hcenvirons posted:Any recommendations for specific enemy in Anor Place the loving bat men with the spears that go through shield! Agh. There's one pull where you're stuck in a room with two if you can't get them one at a time. Normally I can, but I can't kill them quickly enough and there's too little space to sufficiently dodge their attacks. Battle of attrition very much stacked against me. You can easily push them off cliffs and watch them fall to their death. Pretty funny considering they have wings and all. If there is no cliffs and really little space, you can just use iron skin and two-hand them down in one second. big duck equals goose fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Oct 12, 2011 |

Bland posted:e; I heard if you beat the game as a deprived without picking up any items in under 10 hours you get the bonus ending. also you have to spare sif You forgot you also you need to start out with the pendent and never join any covenants. Also, you need to name your avatar Pygmy and spin circles around Priscilla for 10 minutes to unlock the ability to make your own covenant later.

victrix posted:I kind of dislike the dark gold and havel armor. Both sets throw out all the previous light/heavy armor, which is very much in contrast to DeS which you could go through in a suit of starting Leather armor if you wanted to. The Darkwraith covenant armor can be upgraded and it's pretty drat amazing when it goes fully up.

Just letting you guys know, Moonlight butterfly soul shield or whatever, with a high enough int, makes me hit bosses for about 2k hits. Just two shotted the Dragonslayer. Nothing like launching a gigantic disc of doom. Pretty fun stuff.

ArchRanger posted:Does anyone have any advice taking on Dragon Slayer Ornstein and Executioner Smough? This is my second character, and I don't know if I got lucky the first time or what, but I cannot beat Smough once he's powered up for anything. I've wasted about twelve humanity summoning Solaire for the fight, but he's almost worthless against Smough. I'm having trouble with boss X = Ironskin/Two hand the poo poo out of them.

Sacrificial Toast posted:Actually a terrible idea for O+S because you'll get one-shotted by lightning. If you've got the eagle shield and a few titanite shards to upgrade it, it has 75% lightning block, and can take all of Smough's hammerstrikes at +5 or so. I used it on my fight and NG+ and never had a problem. Hell, I even kill Smough first and just crowd around DS's feet wailing on him for the NG.

Just curious, but what happens if you try to jump into the Abyss without wearing the ring? Do you die? If you take off the ring while walking around in it, do you die?

So I beat this, got all the weapons/armors/spells and have them fully upgraded. Tried all the convents, did both endings... Blah blah blah. But I can't play this anymore despite how much I enjoyed it. I think the problem that I have the desire to cheat with the soul dupe glitch if I ever started another guy. Did they ever fix that yet?

Really, if you are having any trouble with ANY bosses, here is the sure way to kill them. Put on heavy armor. Cast iron skin. Pick up the most hardcore weapon you have. Go to town.

Doom Rooster posted:So, I am going to be starting a new character tonight, and I am going for the super heavy physical approach. Heavy armor, giant gently caress off weapon, backup giant gently caress off shield. Actually, when it comes to playing a STR gigantic weapon user of doom, I would suggest a black knight great axe or the hammer that drops from the very first gigantic demon. Both can be upgraded high and really are hard hitting nightmares with decent animation.
