That's an obscene number. Guess I'll be running about like a freak for the rest of the game.

So if your block and attack are the shoulder buttons, what are the triggers mapped to do? I often forget about the shoulder buttons since I hate them so much.

As far as the drawing for the statues is concerned, someone posted the rules earlier in the thread http://www.preparetodie.com/official_rules_Dark_Souls.pdf It looks like its just a random drawing from all the people who entered on facebook according to #3 and #5 in the rules.

RavenKrows posted:So 360 guys, how's the game really handle online? I know the community is smaller than PS3 but is it so bad to where I shouldn't touch the game unless I just want singleplayer? I don't have a PS3 but always wanted to try out Demon souls. The thread sounds negative about the 360, but I can't find any one thing in particular to decide on. I'm on 360 and the online is pretty random. I find that if it takes too long for me to get summoned when I want to help others I just restart the game (it seems to connect you to other networks i.e. I get all new different messages people have left on the ground) On the other hand, I've tried summoning others a handful of times and always get "summon failed" Also, if you want to co op, make sure you are in a co op covenant. After I quit the Way of the White on my first character, he never gets summoned anymore. As far as pvp goes, the only ones I have joined are the gravelords and the forest hunter. I have no idea how the gravelord pvp is since I gave all my objects to the gravelord thinking he would give me a summoning stone. Turns out it doesn't work that way, and I don't have the patience right now to farm any more of the items that cause the curses. As far as the forest hunter goes, as long as you are in human form and wearing the ring, you get summoned a lot. Also, my characters are only around sl30 and I've never been invaded even though I spend a lot of time in human form. I also have never seen a vagrant, but I think thats just because people don't drop their worthless loot. I drop tons and tons of it, so I hope some of you are getting them.

Zebrasectomy posted:Good to hear about the boss soul drops! You don't get very many souls for your items, I don't even bother keeping items I won't ever use.I just drop them all over. If you are online you should start dropping gear in random places so people will get vagrants to kill and some humanity. I've never seen one, but many people in this thread have fought strange crablike creatures where there should not be any which are probably item vagrants.

Besides getting liquid humanity from killing enemies, have any of you noticed just getting it randomly? I've noticed getting it just running around not even fighting things. I've also had it randomly give it to me while waiting to help people with bosses I've already killed. I assumed it was because of item vagrants since I drop so much stuff. But that is just my assumption.

RBA Starblade posted:Hahahahha this game is great. I ran through the forest, chased by ghosts and NPC humans, ran to a great door, went through, then got smacked down by Sif.

RBA Starblade posted:Ah, I see. Still, I'm level 24 and the guy above us said level 50 is what'll put it at easy, so I suppose not. My first character was level 20's when I went through the catacombs, its not that bad. I actually think it is pretty cool Just find the necromancers and kill them quickly. They won't respawn and it will stop the skeletons near them from reassembling. There are about 5 or 6 necromancers throughout the combs. The first one, you basically can just run through all the skeletons to get to, he is at the first bonfire, the second one can be sniped across the gap pretty easily. After that you should have the hang of the place. Also, at the very bottom is a pit filled with rolling spiked wheels, you can kill these pretty easy if you find the NPC Paladin Leeroy to summon, he'll do all the dirty work and help you with the black knight too, then he will help with the boss Pinwheel, but he is pretty easy solo. Paladin Leeroy rocks, since those wheels can kill VERY fast.

Vintersorg posted:I have no idea what to do, pretty stuck. Those ghost town seemed to be a dead end once I finally got to (character)The curse guy on the roof. None of the levers work and I obtained every item for now. I think i've explored the forest, only killed the butterfly but between that area (there is a door with a light I cannot open) and the place with the Hydra, it seems there isn't anything there. Not sure where to go for the mushroom men. Remember when you first got to the firelink shrine, you went down some steps past the crow and got your rear end handed to you by a couple of skeletons? Keep going that way and you will head down into the catacombs. Kick the skeletons off the ledge, or just charge through to the first bonfire. It's not worth killing skeletons until you kill their necromancer. edit:unless you have a divine weapon, then they die.

The heal miracle is good for healing somewhere safe to conserve flasks. It's too slow for normal combat. The heal miracle is awesome for when you are a white phantom and the guy who summoned you doesn't know that he can heal you with his estus flask, but you can't heal yourself with yours.

I like how people spread rumors leading up to the release of this game. I was so worried about the curse frogs because I heard the curses stack. I've been farming them for the last hour or so, and have been cursed 7 or 8 times in my impatience and I'm still only at half health. Do they start stacking on the 10th or 20th curse? I've made a pretty easy 37644 souls doing it though, but only ONE eye of death. seriously, the drop rate on these are way too low. With all these souls, I'm going to buy a bunch of purging stones from the absolutinist in the bell tower! Take that you dumb frogs!

^^^^^^^^Dont eat them.keyframe posted:Where do I need to farm to get large titanite chunks? I am trying to get a weapon upgraded to +10 Slimes in the depths, You'll get about two green shards for every large shard, which will take a weapon up to +10. I don't remember where I found chunks, but they are for going up past +10. They are really easy to farm with the combustion spell or a fire weapon

Meme Emulator posted:I forget where I found it (sens fortress maybe?) but theres a ring that boosts your item find from 100 to 300. I wouldnt grind for shards and poo poo until I find that I guess I need to go back and finish sens fortress then. That sounds awesome. I've been wasting my time on these frogs! Curse you curse frogs! Zebrasectomy posted:Where should I be dropping my sign's for co-op? I've been wanting to help some people out but no one is asking me to join. Should I be dropping them before tough areas or just at bonfires? I drop them first at the entrance to the level near the bonfire, and then I bee line to the boss door and then drop it there, then I go back and clear out the level. Last night someone got me near the door to the bonfire in the depths when I was on as my cleric. He hadn't even started the level yet, the door to the bonfire was still locked.He needed help killing the butchers, so we did. Then I took him through the whole depths showing him things and laying waste to everything, we found another guy and he summoned him (why do his summons work on the first try and mine never do?) and we then went and killed the boss on the first try. He hadn't even been able to kindle the bonfire yet in there! It was fun, I hope he enjoyed it. Although I suppose me being there might have ruined the fun of exploration.

Shumagorath posted:I'm already regretting spending one of my two twinkling titanite shards and 2000 souls on my Jagged Ghost Blade. It only scales E with strength but so far it hits harder than even a Zweihander. I think they are just trying to scare people, the first time I explored there I was cursed through the floor, they were underneath. I was soo terrified of losing even more HP I abandoned a ton of souls to go purge myself immediately. Unless it's bugged on my character somehow. Has anyone here been cursed twice in a row and had it stack?

sighnoceros posted:Here's what the Future Press guide has to say about curse: I was cursed 7 or 8 times farming the frogs mainly because I became careless after I realized they didn't stack. I always had exactly 50% health when I respawned. It did not stack for me.

Spite posted:I actually didn't find the curses that bad. Just run away from the basilisks' breath at all costs. Also you can trade a cracked red eye orb to Sparkly for purging stones. Or save up 3k and buy one from Oswald. Oswald does have a limited supply, I just bought out his stock. I wonder if the stacking curses is between purging yourself. Maybe I will go get cursed again since I've cured my curse and see if I drop down to 25%.

I break them all out of habit. I've never found anything in them(except the ones with bodies you can see) but sometimes they hide items behind them. Look for orange guidance signs from other players, they usually point out the items.

Well, I've sat here at where I've put my curse for over an hour now. Did some laundry, vacuumed the house. No one's invaded. I put it right where the first cobra caster was, so it's not in very far... I guess I should have put it right at the entrance. I don't really feel like farming the eyes anymore and I used up the only one I found in 50k souls worth of frogs. Is SL 35 too high for sens fortress to get invaded? I'm I just really bad at the game? I think I'll go play my sunlight cleric and help people kill things!

RBA Starblade posted:Are you supposed to use it or drop it? You turn human, find a place in an area you would like to curse for other players and use it. You will be asked if you'd like to grief other players when you use it. Hit YES. Then your character will start emitting stink lines (maybe its just me) but you will not see anything on the floor. Supposedly the people you have cursed will see the sign and be prompted to come kill you. So either hide it, or put it somewhere easily spotted if you want to fight. I think you win some souls and another eye of death if you kill someone coming to kill you for cursing them. But I haven't gotten anyone to bite yet, and the curse frogs take forever to drop, although I now have a ring that improves item discovery so I will probably spend a bunch of time killing frogs tonight or tomorrow. I'm SL 35 with my gravelord character, what areas are people in around that level in case I need to find people close to my level to curse? I'm in Anor Londo right now, and I tried Sens Fortress with no luck.

Someone on here a few days ago mentioned finding a hat that boosted item discovery but slowly depleted health while wearing it. Where is this located? Farming Eyes of death even with the ring takes an absurdly long time. I was able to raise over 100k souls from the curse frogs, yet only found 3 eyes while wearing the ring.
