[QUOTE=Jackald;37934023]That's EXACTLY what happened to me. Yo Twipsters, you been to "The Depths" yet? I decided to go there before I tried the Catacombs.[/QUOTE] I didn't even know I could go anywhere else. What I ended up doing was kicking all the skeletons into that big pit in the first room leaving Mr Beardington all to myself. Please tell me I don't have to fight my way back out.

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;37934144]People usually go to the catacombs after Anor Londo because you can't advance to the Tomb of Giants before clearing it. That's why Pinwheel is considered the easiest boss, there's no reason to finish Catacombs before finishing Anor Londo -> overleveled characters one-shotting him with their Black Knight Greataxe +5s.[/QUOTE] I like the early rite.

Please tell me I don't have to fight my way back out.[/QUOTE] You're going there pretty early if you haven't been through the depths and blighttown yet. The boss of that area you're in is stupidly easy and gives you a great reward though so i'd keep going if you're already half way there, then fight your way out.

So I killed some headless statue guy that shot lightning bolts at me, and now I'm in some underground forest. I wandered around a bit and got electrocuted by some dragons and smashed to pieces by some ice golems but I think I'm going the right way now because a giant moth just shot a plasma ball at my face and disintegrated me. This is the right way... right?

noooooooooooooooooo [editline]6th October 2012[/editline] And here I thought I was actually making progress.

the Catacombs was simple and the Tomb of Giants was annoying at best nothing to really shit my pants in rage about though [editline]6th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Twipsters;37937158]noooooooooooooooooo [editline]6th October 2012[/editline] And here I thought I was actually making progress.[/QUOTE] there's a lot of rad things to find in the forest/basin so it's worth scouring the areas

[QUOTE=xpod1;37937768] full catarina or bust nerds [editline]6th October 2012[/editline] jesus vagrants are fucking spooky one jumped out of nowhere at me in the parish and i nearly pooped myself[/QUOTE] Are we showing off our characters now? [t]http://puu.sh/1c5Rt[/t] I've used these armor pieces every time I've played.

Wow that was really tough invasion for me. So I made a new character, when I was invaded he was like at level 15. Non upgraded elite knight armor set + non upgraded spear and estuses at +0. My damage was at 20 one handed and 50 two-handed. So I see this guy using katana. I fought as best as I could. My backstabs did only 80 damage and parries 100 to him and he had fully upgraded armor with katana 1 hit left me on half of my health. I parried him like 10 times and finally got him to 10%. [thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/2012-10-06_00011.jpg[/thumb] It was so hard and I just had to finish it. And guess what? He ran away to non-killed balder knights and used a humanity. Leaving me no chances of victory what's so ever.

Man, being a gravelord sure is fun. Standing here... with nothing happening... not even knowing if people are dying to my black phantoms...

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;37940155]Man, being a gravelord sure is fun. Standing here... with nothing happening... not even knowing if people are dying to my black phantoms...[/QUOTE] Gravelording is broken as fuck, chances are nobody is even getting any black phantoms.

[QUOTE=HALP Cat;37940719]Gravelording is broken as fuck, chances are nobody is even getting any black phantoms.[/QUOTE] They actually fixed it, even on consoles. It's just that there's nothing to do but stand around and do nothing unless you're invaded.

Honestly, I never had those black phantoms in my world.

That and I'm pretty sure people have proven that you don't get BP enemies until you hit NG+ And as long as we're showing off characters.... [QUOTE=Someone4956;37929234]Oh god best idea for Halloween. Cheat Engine your head to make it invisible. Equip Chester's set sans helm, you can use whatever helm you want. Skull Lantern for shield is extremely recommended, or just use what you want, but you have to use a Lightning Hand Axe +5 for your weapon. Pyromancy is allowed. Suddenly, Headless Horseman.

I suck so bad at building my character. I have no idea what I should level my attributes to so I always end up making new ones. I want to make a strength based character who also uses miracles, what's the ideal level for my str and faith stats? And what soul level should I be at for Darkwraith PvP?

[QUOTE=Someone4956;37941533]That and I'm pretty sure people have proven that you don't get BP enemies until you hit NG+[/QUOTE] Wow, I've been looking into this... and it's true. That's so stupid... [editline]6th October 2012[/editline] Well, guess I'm going to go from Gravelording as Solaire to invading as Solaire in Undead Parish.

I think the Giant Blacksmith might be even more retarded than expected. [img]http://i.imgur.com/CWRNX.png[/img]

Well i've got yet another invasion/parry/indictment story. So I was invading dukes and ran into this dude and his phantom, both armed with scythes. Soon as they saw me they started chasing me and I ran around one of the bookcases. The phantom comes round and attacks immediately and I parry and riposte him. The host goes around me during this to backstab me and I turn around, parry, and riposte him. Then phantom from before comes around to backstab me and I turn around, parry, riposte, and kill him. The host runs off scared shitless, gets caught on a table and I kill him. I got indicted again.

I kind of wish I'd get invaded, even though at the time I always stress about it and hope it never happens. I want people eat a face full of Crystal Homing Soul Mass.

Whenever I get invaded I go into full-on deer in headlights mode and just strafe around them with my shield until they kill me

Didn't even think, lit the last bonfire, bam second playthrough. I HAD SO MUCH TO STILL EXPLORE!

[QUOTE=Chaohord;37942819]Whenever I get invaded I go into full-on deer in headlights mode and just strafe around them with my shield until they kill me[/QUOTE] You never go full on deer in the headlights

Before I start NG+ I plan to kill every NPC for their loot I am a terrible person

[QUOTE=Chaohord;37942861]Before I start NG+ I plan to kill every NPC for their loot I am a terrible person[/QUOTE] A terribly clever person.

Well, that was... odd. I invaded someone in Blighttown, and he had a phantom... [t]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/918990936171251934/2D25A167DF337E108858645876C53F6D0BFAFFCD/[/t] ...That was completely invisible. I normally use the large club, but fuck them. Got my gravelord sword out and two-shotted them after getting backstabbed.

[QUOTE=lockdown6;37943826]invaders in the forest are such nice people, got invaded a few times, won some and lost some but all of them bowed and let me kill any enemies i was fighting before beginning to fight me[/QUOTE] Me and another friend were ganking forest nerds today. Good fun.

how the fuck are you supposed to kill this flipping bullshit knight boss in the Oolicile place he is just constantly fucking attacking and there are no opportunities to get a hit on him without getting hit yourself and it's pissing me the fuck off
