The one that's blocking the maze-like area with the pots will yield you another branch to use, so do that one first.

has anyone got problems with co-op? yesterday I was sunbroing... and like 6/10 times I got the message "disconnected from multiplayer" whenever someone summoned me, it's really annoying going thou the loading screens just to be connected again

Wtf, so that Vengarl guy I fought wasn't a dark spirit, he was a player? Turns out he's from /v/. I feel so ashamed.
:lol. Yeah, pretty sure there were no NPC invasions in Iron Keep anyways. Plus..
you face the headless body of Vengarl later on anyways as a normal enemy, not indader
Best rule of thumb when determining if a NPC or human: If the invader just walks right into your attacks, it's a NPC. If he dodges a lot or tries to run away or lure you away, it's a human player.
Plus, the easiest way of them all to tell, is if the invader comes to you or stays still waiting for you. Humans will move around, even if they wait for you, they won't just stand still waiting to be killed.
So did you win or lose?

Well, just beat
in
. Took some tries but then again I wanted to kill them both, not wuss out and beat the remaining one when the one who leaves deems me too weak to fight two at a time.
When one would happen to curse me I'd just let the other kill me.

I haven't even tried - felt like there isn't an urgency for it like in the previous game.
So I have a NG character with soul level 147 and NG++ character with sl ~210. I'm trying to figure out which would make a good PvP character.
210 is probably overleveled for PvP, right? Or does level even matter anymore or was it just soul memory that doesn't matter in NG+ and beyond? I also think that NG might not end up as the place for PvP thanks to soul memory.
Is there any kind of consensus on these things yet? I didn't get into PvP in Dark Souls but from what I've understood there were pretty strict level caps etc. if you wanted to get into PvP.

Taking to slow through Black Gulch did the trick. Just gotta take out this boss now. Those things that jump out the tar puddles are terrifying btw.
Goddamnit. Was wondering where she was.

Got my Moonlight Great sword on my NG sorcerer. Freja wasn't too bad on NG+ mode. Tried immediately on NG++ to get the crystal spell, died on her blue beam, then died on a run back by getting clipped by the spider dude guarding the ladder to the boss. 106k souls lost 
Gave up for now, I think the crystal spell has high req anyway.
Playing a sorcerer with hexes has a crazy amount of spells to use. You add in pyromancy as well and even with about 8 attunement slots I don't know what to use lol.

man i hate this whole collect all spells business. now i got to collect one more spell in the shrine and another at the npc after
i thought i bought all his spells. sucks.
chariot?
You prob need to go into NG++ for one of the spells. I am assuming you are talking about the spell "Great Chaos Fireball"? As otherwise you need to get rank 3 in the Brotherhood of Blood covenant.
Speaking of which: Is anyone here in NG++? How are the summons? I need to go into NG++, but I really hope the summons are as instant and full like NG+.

The one to the scorpion is a complete waste. You can jump to that part of the level from the bridge without ever using a branch.

40ATT, southern ritual band + 2, hexer's hood. I have so many casts! 2x each of great resonant/resonant soul once I got doubles of those. Flame swathe, scraps of life.
I really enjoyed playing as a hexer. By end game I was overpowered, sure. But earlier in the game I had to conserve some of my casts and use my weapon more, and I was made of glass because of the stat investment.
I'm loss now that I'm in NG+ and running out of ways to increase my hex damage output. 48 INT/FTH, +5 Dark Chime of Want. Guess I'll bring my FTH/INT up further for fun. Might as well try to get all of the sorceries and miracles too.

i need that one too. right now im talking about Great Combustion.
And, for the record, it seems that rank 3 in the BoB requires 500 more wins than losses. :-o
Bone of Order?
That reconnects you after you are banned from disconnecting (manual disconnect during invasion) too much. Plus you only get 1 of those.

I wonder if they did that intentionally to stop people from disconnecting, making it a bit of a hassle to connect online in game again since you have to quit to the main menu first.

Just beat it, completely offline, beat all bosses except for
I read that it's almost impossible to take him down before beating the game.
It was a good game, but unfortunately does not reach the greatness of it's predecessors. It seemed much shorter and easier than DaS. This game took me just over 60 hours while the first one took me just over 90, offline as well. I was able to beat almost half of the bosses on my first go, which i was only to achieve on a few bosses combined in DeS and DaS. The final Boss was an absolute joke. The world wasn't as well put together, the level design wasn't as good, nor was the atmosphere.
All that being said, I DO like the game a lot. It is VERY good. Even though they were easier, I liked the boss battles more overall, there was much more cool magic to use, and several levels like
are among the best Souls areas I've played. There were definitely many improvements and I am confident this will end up in my top 10 at the end of the year.
Vendrick, who I tried to beat for like an hour but could not even deplete a quarter of his health.

It's way more likely you just can't riposte these guys. That's nothing new in Souls games.

Blunt weapons > those things.
The Sentinels? Use a thrust weapon. I found slashing to be almost useless against their armor.
I do have a great club but didn't liked the move set. I'm using a Claymore right now but it really feels useless against them.
I've tried my Ricards Rapier +10. Didn't go so well.

Buy 2 clubs from Melentia.
Upgrade them to +6. (doesn't take anything you can't buy infinitely)
Power stance.
Stunlock them to death with L2.
I only had 25 str at the time. I was a 40 dex build mainly using katanas, and those were fairly weak against those enemies. Only reason my str was even that high was to dual wield.
Even with only 25 str, I destroyed them with puny +6 str scaling clubs, simply because the stunlock is ridiculous.
Thx, will try that.

What level are you guys in NG+? How much co-op/pvp are you seeing?
He worked on it in some respect as supervisor, but yeah, there's no way that's real, especially as it links to the 1.0.3 patch notes that we've already known about for a few days.
I'm just over 200, and see summon signs all around. I don't do PvP, but have only gotten invaded twice in my 70 hours of playing.
I've only beaten a few bosses so far on NG+, but I'm level 150ish and haven't been invaded yet (in NG+; I was invaded twice in NG). I've been hollow for most of my time in NG+, so I can't see summon signs, but I did get summoned pretty quickly last night after throwing my sign down
then the servers went offline before I could even join the other person's game.
