Magic good sir. Use a ring of flame resistance and then spells. I killed him on my first try alone.

Oh, I know, but I have crap mana and no points in magic beyond my initial. Apparently, as I found out when I was a Blue, I do a fuck-ton of damage to him as melee because Demonbrandt is awesome. I'll still wait as long as I can for a Soul Sigil, but I know I can melee him pretty damn well.
What class are you?
Started as Royal. Doesn't matter now since I've deviated so far from what I started as. I'm going for a Dex build.

Gotcha. I'm gonna add you to my friends when I get home. Maybe if we're in the same level range we can get a game going.
Just beat him. Found a Soul Sigil and the guy was doing good, but he had a bad timed heal and got raped. :( I melee'd Flamefucker down. It was a lot easier than using magic.
[QUOTE=Banned?;19130818]The servers are different too, and you don't get the events Atlus runs like the Christmas event going on now.
You'd be better off getting the NA version.
The World 3-2 is the only one like that. A lot of the levels are super dark, but if you take it slow and careful then you'll never die from falling. I never have.[/QUOTE]

I see atlus under the title, that means it's the NA version right?
It's the only one I can get from playasia, onyl one that ships to Europe. :D
Rate dumb if am stupid.

That is the one you want.
So I just finished World 3. When I first fought Old Monk, I got the NPC and screwed up so I died. Next try was against some laggy fucker who I could not hit because everything on my end registered five seconds late. Not only that, but he broke all my shit with a Scraping Spear. Third try was tough, but I won. Rarely do I have to use parry to kill someone, but I did it and it was sweet.
I've only read positive things about this game really, I'm going to buy it tomorrow, I can't wait to get it.

I love laying down my soul sigil on world 3. Something about being the final challenge is really fun to me. (Plus like I've said, I rarely lose)
My only problem with the game is a very temporary one. Now that Atlus has made everything pure white WT, everyone who's able to carry the Dragon Bone Smasher is, meaning if I get hit I'm hurting pretty bad.
Go from level 30 to 52 and and still can't beat flamelurker.

The thing about people using the Keel Smasher is that they can only swing it twice and it is slow as fuck. If you dodge in and get behind them after the first swing, it's done.

Wait for a Soil Sigil.

I understand that. Doesn't mean it's not annoying. Also do you happen to have the asian version of the game? In the NA one it's the dragon bone instead of the keel. (Which I guess you already know :laugh:)
[editline]12:50PM[/editline]
On a side note the dragon god was surprisingly easy. After [sp] lauching the giant spears at him[/sp] I just smacked him three times with my soul ray and he was done.

No, I have the NA version. I just call it the Keel Smasher because that's a cooler name. :v:
And the Dragon God is just that easy.
EDIT: Just beat 1-3 and got [B][U][I]SOULSUCKER![/I][/U][/B] Christ this is going to be easy now. I really needed it for 5-2. In Pure Black World Tend. a Black Phantom NPC drops [url=http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/blind]Blind[/url], the sword I want for my build (heavy Dex).
The only part of 1-3 I keep having trouble with is the three red masked demons with the pikes. The only time I've ever been able to beat them is when I was a blue phantom because the host was a damn good archer.
[editline]04:45PM[/editline]
Also, I just got Poison Cloud. This should make being a black phantom more fun. :q:

Use the Thief's Ring and pull them one at a time. If they turn around before they get to you, shoot them again. You don't even need to be good at bows, just use it to pull.
Poison Cloud is a lot more useful vs. bosses than Black Phantom's. Acid Cloud, on the other hand, is a real bitch to players. On that note, so is the Scraping Spear, which I should take the time to make.

The demon souls wiki damns scraping spear as a n00b weapon, but thats probably because the author of that article has been burnt by it a few times and is just sore.

Dude, it is. I've been burnt by it. Everyone has. It's a fucking pimple on the face of an otherwise great system.
I've been killing more and more players by use of parry tho, which is fucking pro.
I got the flamelurker's health down to about 50%.
Fuck. Seems like I can't do some of my Black Tend. stuff until this Winter event is over. Guess I'm setting the game aside for the rest of the week...

I'm gonna finish the white WT stuff first. After that I'm gonna go balls out on going black phantom. (Prolly gonna end up deleveling the shit outta myself that way lol)
Also, Sage Freke disappeared in my game. There was a drop with his stuff on the ground but I've never attacked him. (I have accidentally rolled into him and he stood up like I attacked him though) His little buddy apprentice is gone too so I cannot learn or change my spells. Is there any way to do that without him?

Do you have Yurt in the Nexus?
If so, [sp]kill him.
He kills all the people in the Nexus unless you stop him.[/sp]

What happens if [sp] he kills the maiden[/sp]
[QUOTE=cornndog;19177841]What happens if [sp] he kills the maiden[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]Nothing. She can't die until the end of the game. You can even kill her yourself.
All that happens is she falls down, then a few seconds later stands back up.
If you talk to her she'll say "I'm sorry. I can not die. Not while the Nexus binds me."[/sp]

Hmm. I'll look for him when I get to play.
[QUOTE=Specter;19178564]Hmm. I'll look for him when I get to play.[/QUOTE]
I suggest looking for him immediately [sp]before your blacksmith and bank are dead too[/sp]
Why the hell are people comparing this to Shadow of the Colossus? Yeah, it has big monsters, but that's the only similarity I can see.

Who is comparing this to Shadow of the Colossus?
Yeah, Specter, if you freed Yurt in 3-2, look for him on the right side of the second level of the Nexus. [sp]If you don't kill him, he will do the assassination quests given by Mephistopheles. Kill him and you get his armor. If Sage Freke is gone, so may be Urbain according to the quest "line".[/sp]
They're not even similar.
Demon's Souls being good is the largest difference.
