Here's what I did, second try too!
Distance is key, IMO. First phase I let the enemy distract them and then I just go to town on the main Abyss Watcher. Second phase I'm in defense until he does the dash move, then I roll under it to get behind me, that is when he is the most open. Any other time is way too risky.
I'm sad I locked myself out of it early.Can't access it till late game now.
How do you get it late game if you
killed the Greatwood before joining?

The fog is just there to reduce load times. They assume you aren't warping back to immediately head out there, so they block it with fog and load it in after you've warped. Just have to wait a bit.

Just started the game last night.
I picked Deprived because I wanted a good challenge and a blank slate to build a character. The first boss destroyed me 10 times before I put him down. Now I am going back for that giant crystal lizard thing.
I am playing Bloodborne currently as well and it has been hard for me to make the combat adjustments.

NOPE. Fuck that.
There's a certain questline to follow, but apparently it can only be done after
killing three Lords of Cinder

If you beat the boss of the area you are done with that branch. It is a dead end there.
I'll look into it, I missed it on my first character but got it on my second.
No idea where that is. I have the following unlocked:

Found a hilarious bug on PS4 -
My character decided to get really impatient with me as I hesitated to fight the first boss.
He just tapped his foot like this until I manned up and moved him closer.

If you are having that hard of a time I would recollection with a shielded class. You can tank every hit that way.
Otherwise, just get in tight and roll into him on attacks and get a hit or two in each time.

Hmm, interesting, didn't think of that. There didn't seem to be a sound effect indicating it or anything, or maybe I just didn't notice.

Dude just quit and reload and go back to his spawn point
Through the road of sacrifices, did you kill they Crystal Sage boss? Follow the pathway out of the boss area.
Start from
Crucifixtion bonfire
Head upstairs, past the magic guy and outside towards a boss

Yeah, you can do that in all of them. It's just how their animation system works. There seems to be an ever so slight movement with the legs and the idle standing position and you are standing in a perfect exact spot where it's bouncing back and forth between resting feet locations with the geometry there.

Split Intelligence and Faith evenly
OK, so I have one question that's really bugging me. Second and third main area spoilers.
How do I get to the bottom of the Undead Settlement? The section under the bridge that leads to the Road of Sacrifices. I tried falling down but I die immediately. I have a feeling that's how you get to the woman in the jail cell.

I'm a knight , starting with a life ring, who just made it to High Wall. Any tips for someone just starting out?
70% is plenty for a decent amount of stuff. The difference between medium roll and thin roll is not as nearly pronounced as it was in DaS1 for me.
Thank you! I'll try again.
You need to hit its weak points, (look for huge brown bags to hit on its stomach)
You can get invaded by players and NPCs as well as summon help. Not sure what else.
DrROBschiz

Not sure yet
I know being human in the other games raised item discovery, damage of certain moves, and other subtle benefits
Also it might be required to be able to summon help

apparently you need to to a sidequest for that and can buy a key for the sewers there.
however, I actually managed to fall down and survive it, right behind that npc in front of the jail cell.
It's Int+Faith, kind of.
DS1: No Scaling, or very limited Scaling?
DS2: Max(Faith, Int), basically supplemental to either Miracles or Sorcery, but way more useful to mix with Faith (both benefit a ton from ATT
DS3: Faith+ Int (Sort of, but not exactly?)
I'm sad I locked myself out of it early.
Be careful with the covenant
Rosaria's Fingers. I believe if you join, it will break the quest that allows you to join Mound Makers later.

Did that, thank you, nothing was there.
Since this game is a bug/crashes fest, i'm not even surprised.
Thank you!
What other stats would you advise levelling? It is a good class for the long haul?
DrROBschiz

Isn't it still relatively early in the game? Perhaps start over? Sorry this happened!
Good to know, I'll keep that in mind.

That was something I was planning to aim for, but closest I found so far was Flamberge...
Yeah, I just managed to fall down easily enough. Thanks!

Well, damn.
Does pyromancy need investment into those stats to make it good or can it be used for a melee class as an alternative magic like past games?
Correct so watch out.
