I don't have much experience with Souls games, so can anyone explain why I sometimes regenerate estus while I'm playing through the levels?

That sinking feeling when you get invaded by two jerks and loose 30k souls....fucking hate when that happens. I swear to God I will never ever be in ember form when exploring a new area again, as soon as I beat a boss I will trow myself from a ledge just to loose it.

Which part is giving you trouble? Just dodge his fist slams then get some hits in. When he does his bullshit cloud of death, just chug estus

Pretty much destroying the last bracelet. The boss never puts away from the abyss and whenever I try to go for it. I also get swarm by stupid skeletons so I'm trying to dodge that and the clouds. 2 seconds in the cloud and I'm dead.

Question about a shortcut to a boss.

Right before the
Prince Lothric/Lorian
fight there is a shortcut/lift to the right of the main doors which leads down to the
dragonslayer armor
bonfire. When I try to take that back to the boss the lift only goes down. What am I doing wrong?

I've only been invaded once and I'm always in ember form. I invade a ton and always get thrown into 2 on 1 or worse 3 on 1 :|

Is that's what's going on when I would sometimes see this weird souls-absorbing effect(orangish?). I never knew what it was doing differently

I feel like I can't make any progress in the catacombs. Certain enemies hit too hard, too fast, in too close of quarters. And even if you do win, there's a 50/50 chance they'll resurrect and kill you the next go around anyway. This area is the worst parts of DS2 condensed into one shitty experience.

The two dozen "unable to summon" messages don't help either.

Why everyone thinks this fight is bad? I thought it was fantastic though not equally good as the 'original' version.

I don't know what the original fight was, but I thought it was bad. I'm not a fan of gimmick bosses and this game has plenty of them.

Which are the best 2Hs for strength? I've finished the game so I have access to most, I want to level one up for PvP mostly.

im having trouble with the dodging and rolling mechanics, i have never played a dark souls game before haha.

Here's my tip! Start over and pick Pyromancer. Take Fire Gem as gift. Explore area before boss and get the Fire Bombs. After pulling the sword out of boss, start whacking him like crazy with your ax two-handed before he gets up. This should do like 20% damage in him. Get in a few more hits. Stay back and use your fireball and fire bombs, especially once he transforms. You can do it!!

It's happening all the time to me, and it's always 2 players at once, I barely get invaded by 1, seriously I'm thinking of totally evading the ember form until the end -_-

Being forced to use a slow ass weapon (also only using the weapon art) in a game like Dark souls to promote using the weapon you want in a huge variety of diferent styles is bad for me.

That and also I tend to hate gimmick bosses.

I actually did it before the church. You get a lot of titanite there so make sure you upgrade your weapon. I was at like level 25 when I did it but with a Raw weapon. This upgrade path is pretty OP at lower levels. If you can get a long sword to like Raw +5 you shouldn't have too many problems. Make sure you kill all skellies twice!

What the hell is that bizarre attack that loads of people are using in PVP, where you writhe around on the floor like an idiot stunlocking anyone in a 360 degree radius? It's annoying.

Okay, what the hell. I've summoned more than a few people who don't do anything other than immediately disappear when I enter a boss room. First the D
ancer
, now the P
rinces
. What the hell is going on? It's kinda infuriating.

Sometimes fogwalls are glitched and don't let phantoms pass. Happened a few times to me and it's annoying as fuck. Sometimes red invaders also aren't sent back when that happens, so we just kinda duel until the 150% HP boss kills the host :S

EDIT: OT: I'm at the
Firelink Shrine at the Untended Graves area
right now.
Is it possible to do the trick jump onto the roof?
I always sucked at this so I'm not sure if it's my fault or legit impossible.

EDIT2: Got it.

EDIT3:
The chest behind the illusion wall is empty. DAAAAMN YOU FROM

So uhh...I hope I didn't screw myself

I used a bow and kept shooting at that dragon that comes down in the first area. When he got to 1/3 hp though, he flew off. Is that going to screw me later? lol

Also,

Is the broadsword pretty versatile? I've spent all my shards on it so far, upgraded it to +3. I want to use it until I get enough points in str to use that hammer from the first boss. Hopefully I'm not wasting upgrade shards is my only concern. Warrior FYI.

why do you think that would screw you over later?

and even if, there is always a second playthrough.
