If someone wants to know which ring it is:
It can be bought from the cat in the main base; it's the one that let's you listen to other enemies (about 5k souls if I remember correctly)

Make many deal to find out.
I am stuck, I got the soldier key, I opened the door with it (went down stairs into an area with turtle guys, kept going down the hall and I cant find anything to do at all. I found a bonfire, A ton of turlte guys, and a Giant tree which I can talk to that does nothing.
What am I missing here.

Keep exploring. That's Dark Souls.
Run past that door into the next area that overlooks the sea. You can open another door there.
Remember the giant stone sword that you can go up to (I think a enemy is standing on top of it)? If you stand in front of it and turn right, there is a door that can be opened with the solider key

Well if that's the third time you've summoned Benhardt, he'll give you his sword the next time you talk to him.

Damn Trolls. Guess I havn't found a real wall yet then.
Does the online even work anymore now that GFWL has shut down?
GFWL doesn't (supposedly) shut down until July.

Enemies in Heides are weak to blunt i.e.
use a mace

Are you the cause of his drinking?
GFWL isn't due to be shut down for a couple months. From and Namco have shown signs of removing GFWL from Dark Souls 1 entirely, but the registry app hasn't been updated in a couple months.
Doesn't mean they aren't working on a patch right now, I find it hard to believe they would remove GFWL from Ace Combat but not a game with well over a million copies sold on the PC. Albeit, updating Dark Souls is a fair bit more difficult due to the online interaction.

The Executioner Chariot was a pretty cool boss. Not that interesting to fight once you pull the lever, but I like the concept. My weapon broke during the fight which made it a little more exciting. The skeleton fight on the other hand was a bit meh, and the bonewheels don't seem to spawn if you leave the last big guy alive. I imagine that kind of fight is a lot harder without a massive str weapon though.
Will Dark Souls 1 game saves be completely wiped?
They spawned for me after I killed the last guy.
I was getting destroyed the first few times i tried that boss as I would quickly DPS two of them down without realizing they spawned adds. Then I would get destroyed by 6 bone wheels and 6 other skeletons!
Next time, I took them on one at a time and focused down the skeletons before moving on.

Back up your saves if you want to keep them.
They will either be compatible out of the box, or someone will implement a hex editor to force compatibility.
I'm looking forward to starting over fresh.

So I'm confused here. The game doesn't say it uses Steam Cloud so if I need to reformat my PC do I lose my character?

I think you can backup your save file located in user/appdata/roaming/darksoulsII/(random number)/

Each Skeleton Lord summons something when they die. It doesn't matter the order in which they die. Each one summons a set of skeletons. I believe the one on the left summons the wheels.
GAH!
I was so fricken close to opening the shortcut in No Mans Wharf and in all my excitement that I partially beat the level I get owned by some fricking guy from above. Before I realize what has happened: "You died"
Gah. No more bolts for my bowgun, no more souls (thank god I spent most of them at the merchant before at least), great.

You can always grab your save file. Users\username\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsII\randomnumber
You'll need to enable viewing hidden folders to do this.

You'll find them while adventuring. You can also join the rat covenant to farm them. Every time you kill an invader, you get a stone. It also works in reverse. Get summoned, kill the host, get a stone. Much easier being the host, though. The first bonfire is just near the entrance, down the left flight of stairs. The second is just after the first boss. Third is just before the second boss (slightly hidden).

How far in are you. There are 3, technically 4 but it takes you to somewhere else.
The one in the middle does, the reason I know this is I always killed him first the times I mindlessly failed then saved him for last when I figured out the situation.

The one that shoots fireballs summons those old friends, not sure which he is, I think far right as you enter.

Is there away to make this autosync with googledrive so i can always have a copy just in case/
crap monkey
Member
Blunt weapons also work great on those turtle knight guys in Fores of the Fallen Giants.
yes of course, i always have my game saves on my cloud drive.
download the google drive sync program. it should create a local folder on your PC.
move your dark souls 2 save folder to the google drive then use this command in admin command prompt to link it:
mklink /d "c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsII" "C:\googledrivelocation"
make sure you include the quotation marks and you're set.

I wonder what would happen if you offered to pay for a VAC unban? xD
Problems in the woods, is there some kind of trick to beating those
quickly? Theyre a pain in the arse to backstab and even when I manage it it doesnt seem to do a whole pile of damge (using Flame longsword) and they are just magic sponges (being a pure sorcerer is relatively tough in this so far compared to DeS and DS)
lion men

I just beat that boss yesterday and I used
holy water grenades or whatever on the lords, and I just killed them all in a row without considering that I'd have to mop up ALL the skeletons at once, including a bunch of bonewheels. I barely survived despite going into the battle feeling totally prepared and unafraid.
no really fast way, either backstab or just hit and run. they're pretty resistant to miracles too. not sure about sorcery.
You could probably roll behind them during their swing animation. I generally roll away or back step then hit them in the face until they are dead.

The Lionmen are resistant to elemental attacks, so use normal damage. Strafe to their weapon arm (your left) as they attack to get the backstab, you don't have to be directly behind to get the critical attack started.

Im having a lot of trouble with
in the belfray, any tips?

Upgrade it, it will get better as you upgrade it. It's not hitting enemies sometimes because it is a more pinpoint attack, practice with it, get your spacing and timing down and you can beat the whole game with just a Rapier.
Along with the Mace, Rapier is a speedrunner's weapon of choice, so it's definitely a good weapon.
