When do you get the rite of kindling?

When do you get the fire keeper souls?

What's your steps you take on brand new playthroughs to ensure a joyous ride?

Me? Well, after Taurus Demon. I run straight down to the Catacombs and bully pinwheel for my 20 flasks.

Also I love a good Uchi. Bleed matters. I'll kill that merchant in my first 15 minutes

Same goes for Drake Sword. I'll buy arrows first from said merchant then kill and then go get my sword.

What's your agenda?

Any time I replay, it's to use a different weapon. I go get the large ember and then the extra large in ghost town. Then Anor Londo. Then I warp back to fire link and go get the rite. Then I get bored and play a different game.

You said warp. So post O&S? Large is in depths and extra is new londo right?

Yeah, 10 pots is enough to beat O&S for me. And yes.

I always Forget about that New Londo one for some reason.

Getting it early that is anyhow. Eventually I'll always have it.

But like the rusted ring. I'll snag that shit early too. Then enter Blight town with the master key and own it

 

[Chiggs]

I go right to Blight and soak in the atmosphere. Blight Town forever!

I'm a fan of it. Fantastic place. Absolutely. Couple that with Ash Lake. It's amazing

Most I do is rush for my desired weapon (or something in the same class if its gated) then do a 100% run with said weapon.

Pinwheel can wait though. At this point I barely need 10 flasks let alone 20.

True. But I like dashing into the catacombs for a hot second and getting my 20. For the fun of it.

I hide like a bitch and pump 200 arrows into a dragon's tail. Don't judge me.

My first playthrough i didnt even realize i could increase it, had to beat the game with only 5. Which had the side effect of firelink shrine shortcuts feeling even better because that one gives 10. Im pretty sure for some bosses that were kinda close, i did a longer boss run in order to hsve 10 for the fight.

Me too, my favourite level in the game. Despite the technicall problems at the time, it's the best designed level in my opinion. All those layers and then seing the tree top up there, the access to ash lake. Amazing level.

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

I always go to New Londo and get the fire keeper soul there first thing. I just let the ghosts kill me once I have it. Also, once he moves to his firelink location, I always kick Lautrec repeatedly until he falls off the edge at firelink so I can get the Ring of Favour and Protection early. Just rest at the bonfire and it will appear where he was standing. By kicking him, he doesn't aggro so I don't even have to fight him, just keep kicking until he falls.

Blight town was when it truly clicked for me and I realized how much I loved the game.

My first order of business nowadays is to nab the great scythe.
