So I'm playing through this game for real finally, and I'm surprised at how active the PS3 version still is. Two questions: 1) Is there ever a point in the game where I can easily farm Human Effigies? 2) Does weapon durability increase with upgrades? Even with a +6 weapon, it feels like my sword is still breaking fairly quickly, though maybe I'm just hitting walls too much or something.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I'm making more progress now. This is an odd game. In some ways it feels more like a Demon's Souls sequel that takes some influence from Dark Souls rather than the other way around.

Can someone explain these fake Sunbros to me? Several times now in the past few days I'll summon a dude, we'll fight through the level, and then they'll just go home upon getting to the boss fog. That is not some jolly cooperation. I wanted a Sunlight Medal from you dammit!

No it's the big Summon Signs they're putting down, and yeah they're using the Black Crystal.

I think Cave of the Dead might be my least favorite area in any Souls game I've played.

FireWorksWell posted:Is that the extra area in Sunken King? I did Iron Passage and Frigid Outskirts but I actually enjoyed those areas/bosses. Yeah. The poison statues are a questionable game mechanic to begin with, but on top of getting the AI to actually survive the claustrophobic journey to the fog door they end up being a bit worthless against Fake Havel and his two buddies. I haven't even beaten them yet.

I picked this game back up and beat the Cave of the Dead trio. However I'm now sure Ancient Dragon is the worst boss ever put into a video game.

Finally took down the Ancient Dragon! Saw a tip online about using a Gyrm Greatshield. I happened to have one laying around, I upgraded it to +10, had a Black Knight Ultra Greatsword that I upgraded to +5 as well, and then was finally able to figure out to fight the boss now that I could actually survive his fire breath attacks. Did the strategy of hitting the front feet 2-3 times, trying to bait a grounded fire breath and if he flew up instead I put my shield up- luckily I had enough stamina to survive two hits from the fire now, though if the dude had landed on me I would have been done. Ended up only having to heal once the whole fight. I sort of see what people mean now when they say the run up to the boss might be harder, once you learn how to survive his OHKO's. It certainly helped that I had run through that part so many times with other players that the enemies stopped spawning on the path to him. Ended up killing the Ancient Dragon as a solo though.

...! posted:That whole area is a lot easier in SotFS. The only enemies you actually have to fight are four drakeblood knights, and they don't respawn. Just don't run past them if you don't want to get ganked by the dragon knights watching you fight. There may be one dragon knight you do have to fight but he won't respawn either. ...! posted:That whole area is a lot easier in SotFS.

I don't think I like the Frigid Outskirts area. Rest of this DLC is pretty good but the run to the boss rivals the Ancient Dragon run in terribleness.
