So the first shortcut back to the lamp is past the two werewolves right before the first boss right?

 

[Clear]

it's apparently sadistically hard. Even for someone who was at level 95-something (GAFer).

To be fair lvl 95 isn't especially high level -at least by the standards of previous souls games.

 

[W1SSY]

Second Boss keeps kicking my ass. I get him to his second phase and after that I just get worked.

 

[Ziek]

I've just killed third boss

Spoiler

Blood Starved Beast

Am I right in going to the big gate you need to open with an emblem bought in the HD?

And is it insane that I'm scared I'll be finishing the game soon? I'm having too much fun

I highly doubt you're close after the third boss..

 

[Dominator]

Blood vials... Anyone know how to use them? I've tried every button and can't figure it out for some reason, and they don't show in my inventory.

 

[JustenP88]

Three hours, haven't even seen a boss yet. I'm new to the series, and I'm enjoying it so far, but this is starting to become a bit maddening. There's no way I'm going to be able to get through this game.

 

[Yoshichan]

Just imagine if you had put it in rest from the start

[F0rneus]

The 3rd boss is kicking my ass.

Back to farming echos for antidotes again =/

Been stuck at this fucker all day long. Goddamn

 

[FlyinJ]

[0racle]

So you don't get invaded?

[Jobbs]

I beat fourth boss and am trying to figure out what to do next.

I found a room with an invisible giant that picked me up and killed me. total cheap death. is there anything I can do there or should I juts not go back?

I can confirm that, since I'm one of those.

Careful with those energy drinks. The burn is fucking insane.

That's one way to get there, you can also break through some coffins in the courtyard with the big guy banging at the gate, and then drop down to a zone with some dogs in cages. From there you just take a left up some stairs, head through a darkened indoor area very briefly, then circle around to open the shortcut. The upstairs of that dark indoor area connects to the same bridge with the werewolves you mentioned.

Wait, the Ps4 downloads are faster when in rest mode?

One of the UK retailers, The Game Collection, is now actually out of stock for preorders (pretty rare these days?)

I got the dispatch but my flatmate didn't They say they only got half of their stock today and getting more on Thurs.

 

[Snookie]

Doesn't look like amazon is going to get my game here for me today. Just checked my order and now it says tomorrow. Not happy.

[bananafactory]

Wait, the Ps4 downloads are faster when in rest mode?

Ever since 2.0 there seems to be a bug for a lot of people where the DL speeds are wildly inconsistent.

I should be getting 3 MB per second, and sometimes I do, but sometimes it will drop to insanely slow, like 500 KB per second, for a few minutes.

Rest mode seems to be the most consistent and get you the proper DL speed, which lends further credence to the fact the speed problem is an OS bug and not a server issue.

 

[Ziek]

How do I put myself up for summoning? I can summon people just fine.

 

[Donos]

That (early boss)

Spoiler

father Gascoine Boss Fight

is awesome. Easy to cheese if you need to but fighting him legit is fun.

 

[Hugstable]

So if I want to go with weapons like Saw Cleaver, should I be building up Strength or Skill stat?

 

[Darknight]

Need advice.

You see I preordered on Amazon long time ago and forgot to cancel. So item shipped on sat/sunday. I was planning to preorder on Best Buy to save 20%. I being a dummy waited till it was too late. Collector's Edtion is sold out to buy instore and online.

So now I got my Amazon order of the Collectors edition except I paid like $86.xx due to tax. So my question is, can I open and play this copy and if they restock at BB, Ill buy it at 20% discount and return that new copy to Amazon within the next days. This way I get to play now and send back the more expensive Amazon purchase later with a BB copy. My only question now is if I do send it to Amazon for refund, will that copy differentiate from the Best buy copy. (say a serial # difference or so)

So what do I do GAF??? Play this copy right now or wait, resend back to Amazon and hope BB has more CE's in stock later??

 

[Afrodium]

I've been stuck on Gascione for like two hours. What the fuck. I thought I was good at these games.

 

[GenericBadGuy]

I saw there is an altar in the house in the Dream, but it needs an item I have not found yet.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Cleaver is tailored torwards STR IIRC

 

[Phat Michael]

Any tips for when I start this later? Things to do or not to do at the start so I don't waste too much time? I don't mind spoilers.

Your echoes are safe, but any items you use are consumed. This is made up for with the fact you get normal drops from enemies. You get an Insight for helping them kill the area boss. No friendly fire.

 

[Ellite25]

How much insight do you need for the beckoning bell? I'm at 10

 

[Lee Chaolan]

YES! Go, go, go! Rest-mode!

hehe you'e so cute <3

Blood vials... Anyone know how to use them? I've tried every button and can't figure it out for some reason, and they don't show in my inventory.

Triangle. Don't feel too bad...I suicided by pressing up on the d-pad twice on the bridge before the first boss, thinking I was using molotovs. Bah.

 

[Hugstable]

Also where would I go about repairing my weapon?

I didn't reach this boss yet so I guess I have to wait

This game is going to embarrass me hard. I just know it.

hehe you'e so cute <3

And everytime you post, it makes me sad ... it reminds me how much it will suck that Lee won't be in Tekken 7...

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

So, I'm in the sewers... is it safe to drop down here?
