[QUOTE=HALP Cat;37555122]Chaos Servants, really? I think you mean Darkwraiths.[/QUOTE] Why yes, you're right. My mistake.

Wow, the big stone guys in Royal Wood with the clubs are hard as fuck to kill.

I think the scarecrows with the scissors are harder. Can't get one hit in without them cutting me in half.

Putting about half my levels into strength, I one shot the big stone guys in NG+. It's so convenient not to have to worry about retaliation after attacking them.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;37558264]Wow, the big stone guys in Royal Wood with the clubs are hard as fuck to kill.[/QUOTE] They have very, very high physical defense. My Divine Falchion +9 deals more damage than my +15 Uchigatana, probably because the falchion is dealing magical damage as well as physical. Their attacks are really easy to dodge though, so long as you don't aggro too many at once they're very manageable.

I thought Manus would be impossible to solo but he's way easier with ninja flips.

Yeah, I've started to wonder if they really ever intended to let people go over 50% equip weight, I doubt I could beat any of the bosses in the expansion without at least medium roll.

Got Knight Artorias down to like 60%... with an unupgraded silver knight spear that did a whole 50 damage per hit and some random light armor. Medium roll + slow weapon does not work against him [i]at all.[/i]

That's how I did it, but my slow weapon did enough damage to stop his charge up. Also the weapon I used, the large club, was very suited towards that sort of thing. It has a pretty good range, but the strong attack has a little jump forward that let me hit him from pretty far away, so I could strike just after rolling most of the time.

If anyone ever finds out how to replace sounds and stuff in this, I'm so putting spooky scary skeletons in Tomb of the Giants.

[QUOTE=lockdown6;37559707]where can i get loadsasouls so i can levelup my faith 3 times if i just finished anor londo and should be going into the catacombs?[/QUOTE] Go to the most recent boss area that you beat and lay down a summon sign. Get summoned and kill the boss enough to level up.

What's so good about the dark wood grain ring? Just got it and all it does is add a new rolling animation.

A different set of dodge rolling if you are under 25% encumbered.

[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;37560224]What's so good about the dark wood grain ring? Just got it and all it does is add a new rolling animation.[/QUOTE] It gives a longer invincibility animation than the standard roll. It also rolls a bit farther than the standard roll.

[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;37560224]What's so good about the dark wood grain ring? Just got it and all it does is add a new rolling animation.[/QUOTE] Wear it in a boss fight or invasion and you will see just what it does.

I've been lagging like crazy ever since the new DSFix update. The only areas that won't lag is sens and firelink.

Jesus christ, Blighttown is a piece of shit, I just fully finished it, it's a god damned death trap everywhere, I've never had to watch my steps in any video game that much ever. Also, I wonder which covenant I should join. Darkmoon and Forest Hunter looks real fun for PVP.

Man, I can't tell if Gwyn is harder than Knight Artorias or not. I think he's actually easier, at least the arena has things to hide behind...

I haven't even played this game but I've just recently watched through EpicNameBro's Dark Soul lore series. The lore in this game is just so awesome, so inspiring. I love how everything in this game is a tragedy.

[QUOTE=The very best;37560864]There's not a lot of games that have such dark and deprived themes to them, and that disappoints me[/QUOTE] I know right? We need more gothic themed games.

I haven't actually seen much in the way of lore, I prefer stumbling through the world as a gloriously naive hollow who don't know nothin' about all this magic shit.

[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;37561185]I haven't actually seen much in the way of lore, I prefer stumbling through the world as a gloriously naive hollow who don't know nothin' about all this magic shit.[/QUOTE] Just read the description of everything you pick up, gives you a nice insight while still keeping a lot of the mystery

[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;37561185]I haven't actually seen much in the way of lore, I prefer stumbling through the world as a gloriously naive hollow who don't know nothin' about all this magic shit.[/QUOTE] Item Descriptions and Dialogue, it's an awesome way of telling lore makes it mysterious and allows for many opinions.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;37530010]Yeah, so did I, but I'm getting pretty tired of using it. I've been using it for like 80% of the game. The reason I haven't used anything else is because it's just better than everything. It's a great weapon - I can two-hit the Royal Sentinels in Anor, I just want to use something that's different and better, but there isn't much.[/QUOTE] LIGHTNING ZWEIHANDERRRrrr

I barely use parry due to the way I've bound my keys, however it sounds like certain kinds of builds and playstyles rely on it so I may have to look at changing that in the near future.

Well its quite simply one the most powerful moves in the game and if you can reliably pull it off you can make PVE a joke against enemies that can be parried. You can easily deal 1k damage in 0,5 seconds at the cost of only a small amount of stamina. [QUOTE=Fire Kracker;37561899]LIGHTNING ZWEIHANDERRRrrr[/QUOTE] Lightning damage is nerfed and swing speed has been lowered(or was that only for claymores?). Its a damn good weapon but you can't really say its the best weapon in the game anymore.
