You are going to destroy quite a few bosses with a build like that, but I can think of a couple that are going give you just as much trouble as that guy. Stats start giving diminishing returns once you get past 40, so it's 100% worth it to level up vigor and end to 20 at least.

If you've only been to those places then try heading to Heide's Tower of Flame (go through the passageway to the right hand side of the cat house in Majula; look for a lever on the wall at the end to open the gate).
The quickest way to get the item needed would be to
defeat the Lost Sinner, since there's one in the chest immediately after that fight.

I believe you need to press the interact button (X/A), not attack.

Joined WoB in the beginning, have played for 20 hours and haven't got invaded once. Maybe it'll pick up.

Just wandered into the
with 33k souls from the last boss I fought. I had no idea about the invasions. Goddamnit.

Decision time. Here's the sitch.
Level 76 cleric
VGR 13
END 20
VIT 10
ATN 20
STR 26
DEX 7
ADP 4
INT 4
FTH 30
I've been getting along using a regular mace which I generally like, although the range is a bit short.
I recently found a Dragonslayer's Crescent Axe, which has C str and faith scaliing and E dex scaling, but requires 12 dex to use. It has nice looks and moveset. I really would like to use it, but it'd mean cranking 5 points into dex which is a pretty big investment for a cleric who generally doesn't use dex.
Decisions...

Progress in the game has officially been put on hold as I am just doing this over and over. So good.

If you joined that pvp covanet, the one on the hilll you can't be summoned or see summon signs. Maybe that's your issue.
Also ADP is the new resistance, pretty worthless imo. Unless you're into PVP*

I'm on ps3. I've revealed plenty of hidden walls before by attacking them, why would this one be any different? I guess I'll try it later though.

Are the Embers for forging the same in this game? (Divine, Magic, Lightning?). I haven't found any yet
Id like to get a weapon to scale with my faith.

I get around fine, I think people are exaggerating the importance of this stat. My other char has 20 in it and I can't tell a major difference.
Because there's 2 kinds, ones that require attacking and ones that require the X button. This isn't including the pharros ones

No, they're stones now. Instead of upgrading a weapon liek you used to with different titanite shards for each variety, you infuse a stone into a weapon to give it a type, and just upgrade the same for everything (basic titanite).
They essentially streamlined the process.

kinda lame you get capped at 12 estus +5

Just lost 30k souls at SL90.
Not the end of the world, but it still sucks.

Also does soul memory affect summoning? Me and a friend are using the name-engraving ring and and are only 5 soul levels away from each other. (Him 45 and me 50) Summon sign won't appear at all. I'm at 300k soul memory and he is at 150k
Weird. I figured it was a bug because some enemies aren't affected.
I've that much and more on several occasions way before SL90
as a souls vet I just laugh it off when I lose 50k. I have my callouses from the first game.HalfBakedProphet

oh wow, I'm dense! I've had this boltstone sitting in my inventory this whole time

So is going Faith along with Strength still good? Are there good miracles to use? Good weapons that scale with both?
Also, where can you find good rings early on? Because I've literally only found one out in the world (health regen)

So The grand spirit tree shield let's you parry spells? Wat.
yeah, the game tends to push faith users towards STR much of the time. there are also some quality + faith weapons which are surprisingly good, like the hiede knight's sword you can get at the starting.
personally, I've used the regular mace on my cleric for most of the game, upgraded and with some str it really outputs a ton of damage, and strike damage seems to generally be better than slashing damage in this game, from what I can tell.

Just annoying, because I ended up actually finding another boss and doing well against him, but couldn't find a bonfire in the area!

Lucatiel phantom fell in the water in no man's warf. Does that mean I can never summon her again?

Yeah Strength and Faith are good together.
As for rings, for a quick and easy one go back to the starting area before the witches house, and look around. You'll find an enemy there with a ring

She should be close to the bonefire. . . Strange that you can't find her, she definitely is there.

can I get a break down of equip load% and the changes in your rolls? Hard to tell where it changes, but I want the best possible roll.

Woooooooooooooooooooow, NG+ is totally a different thing in this game. In Things Betwixt there is new enemies i never saw on the normal game.
You can lure/activate them 2 at a time though, unless there's another room.
I am starting to think a high Agility is not really required. ENB worked on the official guide and he said he couldn't get a straight answer from FROM about Agility. ENB speculates there maybe more invincibility frames when you roll, but he does not have real proof.
He does claim it decreases the time to heal with a flask. Something like .44 seconds from base agility to the highest agility. It does not make you roll further, that is governed by equip load. Does it make you roll faster? Doesn't feel like it. Why is FROM so hush hush about agility?
ENB talks about agility: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=qR_XkXEWbJw#t=570
