[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;38446103]Welp, looks like I found my strategy. 1. ALWAYS ROLL AWAY NO MATTER WHAT HE DOES 2. Only attack him after his glide-lunge move, then roll the fuck away 3. Heal when he buffs, then run like a scared little girl Got him down to about 1/3rd health, then fucked up once and died. Such is life with low vit. [editline]14th November 2012[/editline] Also holy shit this is the first time I have felt actual FEAR fighting a boss. Especially when he stacked 4 buffs and came at me like a freight train full of rape.[/QUOTE] Well we are talking of the guy who is the essentially the most badass of them all. With a highly built reputation and known for his unbreakable will (at least until he went Abyssal). Thanks to this guy you're able to go walk the Abyss as he did and fight the Four Kings, getting you ever-closer to Lord Gwyn. I'd assume he would be a freight train of destruction. Even with the state you meet him in, he's definitely earned the titles given to him. Also, the key to that boss fight is precise dodge times and doing your best to flank him. Not too soon or too late. You got to time it just as his sword is about to slice and dice you.
Really? I died one time to a bullshit attack, went human and summoned a sunbro, then proceeded to rape him so hard I didn't even get the chance to enjoy the awesome music. Am I really that OP?
Every boss fight is easy if you summon somebody.

Am I really that OP?[/QUOTE] With a summon? Yeah. Almost all of Artorias' moves are designed to punish a single target, so whoever doesn't have aggro can just whale on him. Come to think of it, want to co-op? Is SL66 within your range as a sunbro? [editline]14th November 2012[/editline] sorry arty but I NEED those tracers.
Can't at the moment, maybe in a few hours if you haven't found anyone then. Add me on Steam if that's alright.

[editline]14th November 2012[/editline] Yeah, I have a level 69 that is at that exact area.

I'm on right now. I'll place my sign infront of the stairs. Kawaii Catgirl is my name.

I think i should experement with Crossbows. Two handing them doesnt make a difference if you dont have the Strengh Requirement for one handing them, right? [img]http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/library/deriv/72/72751.gif[/img] Emergancy Page King Content, go!
Slayer tanked Arty for me, thanks for offering Devo <3 But holy shit, these tracers. Gold Tracer +5 does 5 damage less than +15 BSS and does 300 bleed AND attacks fast AND looks awesome. I'm in love. If the toxin from the Dark Silver Tracer works on bosses I won't be able to contain my orgasm. Plus dat 160 crit rating BEST DEX WEAPONS EVER [editline]14th November 2012[/editline] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/NPdAx.jpg[/IMG] YOU SO BEST
Well shit, I wanted to hear Artorias' awesome theme again. Well at least someone's put it on Youtube by now. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ns8sjLttxCc[/media] There are certain kinds of sad stories that just resonate with you. Dark Souls is full of them, the Daughters of Chaos turned into abominations, Gwyn's madness and necessary defeat, Priscilla's cold painted prison, but Artorias' story is my favourite by far.
Speaking of music Gywn's theme is the best.

[QUOTE=Zinayzen;38444949]I can never figure out the right place to invade there. I hate the secondary part by Solaire's bonfire. I GUESS down by the Darkmoon bonfire is the best place. Gotta get me a Dragonslayer Greatbow.[/QUOTE] Why the hell Solaire's bonfire is bad? Most people stay they waiting for summon signs. [QUOTE=JoeSibilant;38445970]So, on that subject I have a question. Is it even fucking...POSSIBLE to interrupt Artorias when he's buffing with a Balder Side Sword? By the time I get to him and start attacking, he's generally more than half way through the process and there's absolutely nothing I can do. Then he one-shots me.[/QUOTE] Do you even swag? I have 2 swag swords - 1 with lighting and second one +15. I used the lighting one on him, when 2 handing and mashing R1 when he's buffing he breaks in 4 hits.

Gold is meant for offhand since it doesn't parry, but does an attack.
I just don't like the second AL bonfire. Duke's great because I can tell instantly where people are. Can't do that in AL, plus there are too many small spaces/hiding spots. I've been ambushed SO MANY TIMES.
My SL16 burg invasions have been terrible, I kept invading this dried-finger guy who was wearing some balder gear and some other stuff, with a demon spear and a lightning shotel. (He must have been NG+ or a twink,) Eventually I decided to stop noob-friendly darkwraithing and chaos reinforced clubbed the wuss to hell in back four invasions straight. He then proceeded to mail me wonderful, tear filled messages. Oh +5 chaos reinforced club, how I love you.
That thing will be fixed eventually, it stuns harder than it should.
[QUOTE=Zinayzen;38450654]That thing will be fixed eventually, it stuns harder than it should.[/QUOTE] All (most?) clubs have the same poise break as greatswords. But that makes up for having a terrible moveset and only being good to beat down twinks with hornet backstabs.

Everything else is cool.
I enjoy invading in the Burg actually. So many people either are dumb and I feel bad for how badly I wrecked them or are attempting to be assholes (see that one dergonslayer greatbow guy a few days ago) and I still wreck them or they get invaded by yet another guy. Considering doing Duke's but I don't know how many people actually go human there. My favorite invasion area is still tied Sens Funhouse and Anal Rodeo though.
Duke's is actually a pretty decent place for PvP, a lot of people will wait by the second bonfire(the one you can warp to). I've run into quite a few people that just happened to be human there as well.
I hope I wan't the only one who got scared of the message in Oolacile saying "let there be light". I didn't know what to do, and now those noises will forever haunt me. Then I finally got it likethe idiot I was and got the pendant. :v:

Is something going to kill me?"
