Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition(360,PS3,PC)v3 - Dark Magic is perfectly balanced - Games

So my friend bought this for me on the steam sale and I figured "Eh, I'll just play it for a little bit." I ended up sinking 5 hours into the game already, dammit. I got to the Depths and got spooked, then noticed I could someone someone who turned out to be a real bro. Shirtless and manly carrying a Greatsword of some sort. He led me through the sewers, took me to every item, pointed at doors and things I needed to pick up (made me giggle), and even saved me during my first invasion! He backstabbed the sucker twice, and got me a spiked shield. He even laughed at me when I fell for the first blob-monster like a total scrub. Summoned Solaire and tried to fight the Gaping Dragon (terrifyingly great design of an enemy). My bro kept hugging the dragon's crotch but got wrecked real fast, then Solaire got continuously whipped to death, so it was me against something with more than 3/4th it's life. Blasting spells, barely dodging attacks, jumped and rolling, no estus flasks, sitting on the edge of my chair fighting for like 20 minutes (I was piss-weak). tl;dr [I][B]I fucking love this game[/B][/I]

The invader you got in The Depths was an NPC, Darkwraith Kirk.

Able to take out Smough with the help of Solaire. Now having trouble with Super Ornstein and his lightning attacks. Solaire usually dies around this point too so it ends up as a 1v1.

why do people just not understand to take out Ornstein first i don't get it

[QUOTE=Saza;38453185]why do people just not understand to take out Ornstein first i don't get it[/QUOTE] Both super forms are easy, its the first phase alone that give people trouble.

Chaos weapons are actually quite nice, they give me very respectable damage without the need for actual points in anything. SL30 rapier-composite bow fun.

[QUOTE=Saza;38453185]why do people just not understand to take out Ornstein first i don't get it[/QUOTE] Yes taking Ornstein out first makes the entire boss fight easier. No doubt. This particular character I'm wanting to acquire the items you get off beating Ornstein, so I'm having to face his Super form for it. Going to grab the Thunder stoneplate ring and I remembered I have some gold pine resin. Should make his fight more reasonable.

I wasn't saying the HP or Soul values. Just the weakness / resistances [editline]14th November 2012[/editline] The other wiki agrees on weakness / resistances.

Goddamnit forest invaders. I set up my shit and start invading, but people keep trying to invade me while I'm invading. Cancelling my invade and making a fog door. the wrost part is they NEVER invade. They always fail invading me.

[QUOTE=Foogooman;38453568]That's not accurate actually, the other wiki has the correct information.[/QUOTE] I [I]really[/I] hate how there are two wikis and they both have different information. I usually use the wikispaces one though, seems to be better overall.

[QUOTE=Tampong;38453970]I have more problems with super smough then super ornstein.[/QUOTE] The main thing with SS is getting the hell out of there when he does his lightning-ass slam attack. Other than that you can run around his crotch and he has the hardest time hitting you. Seems to be the case with SO, as I stayed his in crotch are and burnt his ankles till he died.

they're both actually similar when in super form except Ornstein on Speed is stupidly fast versus Smough eating Ornstein's donut stash being an easy 'bite his ankles'. Roll backwards when he buttslams and you are good to go

[QUOTE=Tampong;38453970]I have more problems with super smough then super ornstein.[/QUOTE] Super Ornstein has a grab though, Smough doesn't. Hate that grab.

the grab is rather easy to avoid if you hug the pillars (or what's left of them) like I did all in all it's really only a though fight your first time, then you wish you could do it again because it was such a fun fight ;-;

[QUOTE=ijyt;38452527]Blighttown. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/VaMTd.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] do what I fucking did and take the shortcut BELOW the fire link shrine or use the passage to the valley of drakes. seriously. it saved me atleast 2 hours of anger.

Got invaded for the first time by Darkmoon. I don't think he realized he wasn't getting through maxed out giants armor and tower shield. Two-shot him with lightning greatsword.

lol I'm REALLY half tempted to make a muscle wizard. is it worth it? I mean how effective is it in pvp?

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;38454115]Super Ornstein has a grab though, Smough doesn't. Hate that grab.[/QUOTE] protip; roll forward when his left foot hits the ground and it will never touch you.

The mobile version of Wikispaces is the worst thing ever.

Ah shit you need to get the lordvessel before draining new londo? I wanted that very large ember for anor londo.

[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;38454951]Ah shit you need to get the lordvessel before draining new londo? I wanted that very large ember for anor londo.[/QUOTE] You can murder Crimsonwiz Ard for the key to the seal. But the game is bugged, so if you kill him in NG+ he won't drop the key.

Ya I'm not going to do that bug. I'll just trudge through al with my little +10 sword.
