Bout to go into NG+ is it confirmed we can still invade, summon people still in NG if we are in NG+?

Trying to spoil as little as possible but just met
and on being offered his services, I knew there had to be some major implications so I just read his wiki page along with the pages for dark sigil and hollowing. How best to proceed with him? Jump straight in and start taking the free levels or wait till a bit later (but before I enter the
)?

I wouldn't be surprised if this is BB2 actually.
Try to summon some help mate, essentially that is what it is there for..... some bosses just kick ass, I remember the optional boss in BB, kicked my ass so many times, I resorted to summoning.... there is no shame in getting help
Yep it's broken. Hosts, phantoms and even bosses can be completely static. Not really fun when it's an invader and you can't even see his attacks.
Sometimes it's also impossible to enter fog gates after being summoned. Happened to me so many times yesterday at the A

WHAT, WHERE'S THE LTTP. I love reading those.
EDIT: Oh, you LTTP'ed Demon's. Good shit, good shit. Reading it now.
Yeah I felt it would be in bad taste if I started two LTTP back to back... I might add a post in that thread though about my Dark Souls experience. Spoiler: it's amazing.

Half the people are complaining that the game is too easy and half the people complaining that it's too hard. I think Fromsoft really got the difficulty right for this one!

Run up to them and spam R1? Or just run by them? They are definitely one of the toughest enemies in the game.
Stay out of line of sight and knock them down.
Or just run around them, the sight can't kill you, only their physical attack.

How do you switch classes?
AmethystEnd

Your starting class is just a suggestion. You can build your character however you want with no need to "switch classes".

Starting class means almost nothing other than starting you off with some equipment and minimum stats. Change class by leveling and picking different equipment.
Had read so much about the guy with the two swords
that I was peeing my pants when he attacked.
Beat him on the second try, its all about the right kind of build I think.
Blocking and a fast small sword was all it needed.
Those guys in that dungeon tho
... not a fan!

The credits rolled for me just a few minutes ago and I kinda feel sad that it's over. It was a fantastic journey all the way through. I needed 36 hours for my playthrough.
I think I found my GOTY already and it's not even May, but what could be better than this? The level design, the story/lore, the variety in enemies, the amazing bosses. Everything is great about this game. I didn't feel that it was as difficult as Bloodborne (and the very difficult DLC), but you kind of expect what happens in these games after you play a few of them. So now the choice is between NG+ or a NG as shieldless DEX, Pyro or something else. I might just leave this character (STR with Shield) for the DLC, which I cant wait for.
This journey is far from over after all.

Question regarding dark sigil, spoilers just in case.
I acquired all 5 free levels of Yoel and he died and Yuria showed up. My dark sigil is level 5 and I have 20 points in hallow. How exactly am I affected by this? If I heal with the fire keeper, does it erase my dark sigils or just my hallow? I assume I want 0 hallow.

Okay, I can't beat the fucking
because I need to stop curse buildup, but I don't remember how it was done in previous games. So what do I need?

Kill the guys casting the curse field. Basically take the time to kill anyone who looks like they're doing some shady shit up in the air.

Are they the fat guys or is it random?

It is related
to that questline. You can follow Yoel and Yuria's questline if you want. If you get the firekeeper to remove the dark sigil, then their questline will be over. The hollow is apart of their questline as mention and it doesnt really affect anything mechanic besides the questline.

Yeah, they are pretty good. I guess the I******* Straight Sword if you want to two-hand rather than dual wield.

Didn't pay close enough attention to know if it's random or specific; the ones I noticed were always skinny. There are three (I think) spells being cast in phase 2:
1. Fireballs
2. The big blue orb projectile
3. Curse field
2. The big blue orb projectile
3. Curse field
If they're not 1 or 2, and it looks like they're casting something, they're 3.

Constantly, and I mean CONSTANTLY be on the move and roll away from his attacks. When he goes in for that insane 3-move long reach flame combo attack, roll right toward him and to the side during the final strike when he brings his sword crashing down.
Then hit him once or twice in that 1-2 second window. This is when he is most vulnerable to attacks. Then roll away and repeat. It'll take time, but this is what did him in for me on the 15th attempt.
What a beautiful, amazing fight. My heart was pounding. The controller was sweaty. A+
I've restarted the game 3 times and am now on my 3rd character and final character. You know how after you kill the first boss your outfit glows and looks like it's slightly on fire? That didn't happen to my current character for some reason, it still looks the same as in the beginning
It is more noticeable depending on your gear, and you lose it as soon as you die. You can get it again using one of those Ember objects you have. This is one of the most central mechanics of the game, you'd figure it out eventually.

Happened to me too. When I'm in Ember form there's no fire on me anymore. T_T

nor Londo and did not expect that at all. I thought it would just be something different but nope, it's the exact same place. Seeing the Giant Blacksmith dead and meeting Priscilla is amazing. I dread to find what's behind Ornstein and Smough's fog door.

Nothing is going to beat this as my GOTY 2016. What a sublime, brilliant work of art.
FROM really didn't have to make the game "this" good, but they did. What dedication and vision.
They never stop for me. I've invaded at least 80 different games over the last three days on just the PS4 version alone. My Ps4 character has a low level though and I haven't tried covenant invasions on the PC version in a few days. not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Guys, I haven't seen any funny boss gifs like we had for Bloodborne.
What gives.
This is the best thing I've seen in a long time. Ha.

You can equip dagger or another weapon whose weapon art gives you the Bloodborne dodge. Use that to move e through the swamp faster. Poison damage is so negligible in this game. I never healed it and just Estus'd every once in a while.
Yep, not once did I need to repair a weapon. Dark Souls 2 was so much worse. Thank god for Dark Souls 3's system
