He is eeeeeasy.
Just whack him until he aggroes and then go to town
You're evil, haha.
I really liked it too! It was Blighttown 2.0, I just wish it was larger, it gave the impression to be huge and instants later it was over. And I even went back to it after I got a key to test it on a locked door I found and didn't remember where exactly it was.
You can beat any three bosses with her, and you can also beat the same boss with her three times by using ascetic. If she dies during the boss fight, it won't void the achievement, but the boss fight won't count either.

I believe you have to talk to her at the Keep to complete it
yea i just got to a bonfire and got the hell out of there
after spider cove i'm all jumpy so like that was too much stress for a bit
missed a ton of items i'm sure, but at least i lit up a lot of torches, so it'll be easier when i come back later
There are three bonfires in Earthen Peak. Did you try ascetic on all of them?
yes sir. the 3rd one respawns the boss. But no manekins :/

which area were you trying to do anyways? Because Bonfire ascetics are supposed to work. I have only used one in front of the boss in Iron Keep, and it made the mobs in that particular area stronger and the boss respawned stronger.

Anybody know what's going on with my game? I have talked to both Pate and Creighton as much as I could and their storyline didn't seem to continue. I hear they're supposed to be fighting in
but I can't find them anywhere and the area that says they're supposed to be there they're not. Maybe I'm getting the wrong area?

Dark Souls II shipping, huh
Yeeeep. I just found myself sprinting through that place.
It's like this -- You kind of have to BS it yourself with ranged attacks. But I kind of have a major distaste for zoom bow sniping or binocular sniping -- it just feels so out of place in this game.
There is one other place where I felt I had to resort to sniping and I felt dirty for doing it. In Lost Bastille,
in order to get the Lost Bastille key that opens the door to McDuff, you have to drop down this ladder, and at the bottom awaits half a dozen zombie dogs, and as soon as you reach the bottom, an NPC invader comes in as well
yea it's not too bad, i used a bunch of firebombs on the big clusters of poison thingies and it worked but i still had to eat like 15 lifegems just to get through to the bonfire

If you've cleared Iron Keep, you have access to an area where you can get a high magic resist shield. Very useful for Amana.

Yeah that part sucked. as if 8 zombdogs wasn't enough. I was just blinding sweeping with my sword as they were jumping at me.....and then the phantom showed up and ruined me.
What's the best way to take out the
fire salemanders
My first playthrough, I didn't realize that there was a second one. To compound that, I kept stepping in the fire pits during the boss fight. Oh the rage and cursing that ensued when I tried to get back to the end of the area while being pelted by poison darts and molested by hand monsters.
Can't you get it by jumping into the place near the hawk ring?

oh dude that sounds painful lol
i just set up my summon sign and boss didn't seem to hard on my first sunsis run
gonna see if i can get a couple more sunlight medals, i'm really overleveled tho (lvl 103) so getting summoned has been getting more difficult lately
it's weird cos i didn't grind or anything, i got a lot of souls when getting killed over and over by smelter demon but i guess that must happen to everyone right?
Nah, it's fine. I like changing clothes and making new custom sets every time I get new stuff, it'll be cool to still have more stuff to find out on new game +
I'm currently using the set that dude who hates light gives you with a bandit mask, but I don't like using full sets, I feel generic. I need to find something to mix it with.

600 hours!
DARK SOULS II
112.1 hrs last two weeks / 112 hrs on record
That's just me alone.
=(
Arrows, arrows, and more arrows.
I'm level 180, and I still have trouble killing them up close.
I had a much easier time getting sunlight medals on NG+ at the Ruin Sentinels. Half the time, as soon as I wrote my sign down, I would get summoned immediately. I see a lot of SunBro signs in NG+ in general.
Well, shit, where do I get them?

You're exaggerating. I know because I've been farming that area for Twinkling Titanites. It's annoying and they made it needlessly long with more mages than they needed to to make a "point" about one of your vulnerabilities as a player, but they don't agro you from the other side of the map. Some of them don't agro you a few meters away like the third one after the second bonfire, provided you're headed straight and not to the sidepath with the treasure.

Figured out the issue. I hadn't opened the door.
Also I'm pretty sure I just fought my first cheater. I invaded a guy as a bell bro. No matter how many times I hit him with a lightning spear or a sword attack he would lose NO life. I highly doubt there's a spell that grants immunity to ANY damage whatsoever, and lag wasnt there because he moved relatively normally.

4 Poison arrows, go grab something to drink, 4 poison arrows again, twiddle thumbs, 4 more poison arrows aaand done.
ah good to know
i was afraid i messed up leveling too much
i'm just putting random points into faith now just cos i really like shooting lighting out of my hands lol
but i don't really know what else to spend my souls on, i already got pretty much everything
desert sorceress
all the latest fashion in drangleic comes from them
you could burn that ascetic, it's not really a hard dungeon. like serious answer i would probably wait cos i'm scared of ng+ but if you're more confident in yourself than i am maybe you'll be fine

Pate:
FOFG, Earthen Peak
Huntsman's Copse, Shaded Woods
After that they will both be in Tseldora, location:
From the second bonfire look out over the ledge in front of the exit from the Congregation boss, jump across the ledge and in that room, they are fighting.
What happens at this final meeting:
Pick a side, help kill one, speak to the other. This is the end of their plotline other than they key you get, so I would kill the other one after speaking to them for the loot. Not sure about Pate, but Creighton get's a tombstone if you ever need to resurrect him - not sure what for, there doesn't seem to be any more to his questline as if you don't kill him he simply disappears.
You also get summoned immediately for
Looking Glass Knight
It's a war out there everyday. You can't hide from it, you gotta play by the rules, play it cool, gotta laugh in the face of sad disgrace, when your friends and foes look alike.

Right on. Your pensive Lenny avatar will always make me smile.
The 2H R2 is fun, give it a try.
