Vamos, you have to drop down a pit to get to him for the first time.[/QUOTE]
That's what I meant, my bad.
[QUOTE=Fancy Cakes;39166020]Spacebar for sliding down ladders.[/QUOTE]
Well shit...
I've tried spacebar before, along with almost every other button on my keyboard.
But I only ever just pressed it. I read your post and tried spacebar again, but this time I held it for a second.
I slid.

He's was trying to find Andre though, the catacombs is hardly a nice place for an un-upgraded longsword.

In the cutscene where you are lifted up to Anor Londo, they play a few chords from this theme. It's a really nice touch.
I'd find a video, but the only ones that came up were LPs from annoying nerds who wouldn't shut up.
Four Kings let me almost finish the boss fight then kill me
they proceeded to kill me within 20 seconds every other time after that

Anyone ever run into ghosts invading your world? We couldn't even hit him.

Beat Quelag. I'm so happy. Fucking finally.
To sens fortress. I more or less love this place but I don't remember the friggin Lizard men being so resistant to my pointy spear.
as far as Dex weapons go, what's better than a winged spear? I've got my Uchintanga(or whatever) and nothing else really.

That's part of the game's pseudo-multiplayer. You can see other players walking around and fighting, but you can't interact with them at all. Other people can see you, as well.
I don't remember who said it, but someone here said it recently and it helped me out so much
"don't dodge their weapon, dodge their hand" or something like that. Retiming my dodges better helped so much.

I know what a ghost was but this one was attacking and hitting us but we couldn't hit him. Just a really weird glitch.

Was he actually attacking the host? Or was it just there temporarily?
I remember invading someone who was fighting with, what I thought at the time, nothing. Because I couldn't see an enemy.
I got closer and saw he was fighting a ghost. I put it together that he was fighting Lautrec, who appeared as a ghost to me because that's how invaders/summons see NPCs.
He was wearing Solaire's armor at the time so I killed him quickly after he dealt with Lautrec.
[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;39166669]I know what a ghost was but this one was attacking and hitting us but we couldn't hit him. Just a really weird glitch.[/QUOTE]
Must have been Lautrec.
The ghost was using dual scimitar so I don't think it was Lautrec. I'm just gonna chalk it up to another multiplayer bug.
I killed Lautrec while he was in fire link
is this bad?
[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;39166722]The ghost was using dual scimitar so I don't think it was Lautrec. I'm just gonna chalk it up to another multiplayer bug.[/QUOTE]
Lautrec's Shotels show up as Scimitars because ghosts use weapons based on the weapon type, ie curved swords/greatswords/whatever.

Not if you get his ring. You do miss out on two armor sets though.

Ah ok that makes sense then.
[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;39166722]The ghost was using dual scimitar so I don't think it was Lautrec. I'm just gonna chalk it up to another multiplayer bug.[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure it would be Lautrec. Since the Shotel is part of the curved sword category, it is shown as a Scimitar when you see a ghost. Pretty sure like, a Drakesword would show up as a Shortsword and a Dragontooth would show up as a Greatclub (I think).
I'm not 100% sure, but it works someway like that.
Edit: Ninja'ed

Once you get past the whole "humanity hoarding asshole" thing Lautrec is an ok guy. He never lies to you, gives good advice, and has a swag as fuck armor set.
Okay guys he might not be tripping out, there is a value in CE to change yourself into a ghost, red/white phantom and dragon and I invaded someone who made himself a ghost, they can attack you but deal no damage and you cannot hit them.
[QUOTE=dogmachines;39166770]Once you get past the whole "humanity hoarding asshole" thing Lautrec is an ok guy. He never lies to you, gives good advice, and has a swag as fuck armor set.[/QUOTE]
He doesn't hoard it, he offers it to his goddess. I don't mind Lautrec, nice enough to your face and even when I killed him, it was just fate rather than hatred. He's not a really bad guy, I've even killed a few Fire Keepers so I can't say his crime is abhorrent.I think we just crossed paths at the wrong time and fate turned us against each other, with him drawing the short straw.
Now Patches on the other hand, I have a soft spot for asshats and couldn't help but like his sadistic and cheery manner. Wish we got more of him.
Patches also gives you my favourite gesture and sells some nice stuff.
[QUOTE=Rats808;39164412]If you time a parry right, the attack doesn't hit you, and the enemy is left wide open for a riposte or whatever you wanna call it. Basically a front version of backstabbing, with a slightly higher damage bonus iirc.
[editline]9th January 2013[/editline]
And no, it doesn't work with magic/miracles/pyromancy or arrows/bolts.
It will still block magic/miracle-buffed weapons though.[/QUOTE]
You can actually parry antyhing in the game except for attacks against giants (bosses included, larger-than-human people, or creatures cannot). Arrows, magic, etc. are all parryable
Of course if you parry an arrow you still take some damage and it can't be a partial parry (partial parries are poorly-timed parries where you don't parry at the right time, but close enough to still deflect like, 70% of the damage the attack did and you don't get staggered from it).
[QUOTE=KorJax;39166952]You can actually parry antyhing in the game except for attacks against giants (bosses included, larger-than-human people, or creatures cannot).[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure if you meant parrying so that you can follow up with a riposte, but you can partial parry any enemy in the game (as far as I know), Anor Londo giants & Taurus Demons included.
[editline]10th January 2013[/editline]
Turns out you can actually partial parry Channeler's magic missiles too
Apparently Hydras can push you under the world and instakill you, neat.

I was kinda trying to circle it and nearly crapped myself when I fell down because I was looking directly at the beast the whole time and didn't see the drop :v:
Finally victory is mine! Took a few tries, feels good.

Is that NG+?
Nope, my first character. I plan on remaking it as I allocated stats in dex then went str build like a noob.
