Update: D
is where I'm stuck in my no upgrade SL1 run. It's doable, but damn if it isn't likely going to be the hardest fight in the game for me. You can learn to dodge attacks all you want, you can only dodge so many at a time. I even beat C
without too many problems. I'm thinking I need to just go along the other path for now, and hope for a better weapon or ashes that give me resins for sale.

It keeps happening once it starts though and restarting the game fixes it. Definitely something going on with the game

I made a new character after finishing a run with a pure INT guy.
I'll say that melee is so much more fun in this particular Souls.

iirc you can use a certain gem to unfuse a weapon.
No Faithfuls are NPC invaders as far as I know, no idea about your problem though.
I had a similar problem after a regular invade. I fixed it by using a Homeward bone.

Arrogant Smirk
Did the opposite. Beat the game as dex, now doing a mage. Disappointing so far. Mages seem to take a while before becoming semi-powerful...
Wait, that was a human
They were awfully nice and patient.
Can't use homeward bone, either. I'm going to forcefully quit the game, then.

Don't you get strong magic weapon rather early? I'm still on my dex run but I have the same planned path as you
For future reference, it only shows infusions you have the coals for.

Most of the time when I invade as a Faithful solo I just let the host finish up if they're fighting enemies on their own, I'd rather not interfere in that kind of case.

My mage is using offensive spells, not buffs. That's the point of being a mage. Though my damn fire-infused Astora sword is getting a lot of use... because mages are gimped.

does anyone know where the save files are located on pc?
edit: nm, found it

I admit, the fact that you can lock other invaders makes things confusing. When I did pvp for the first time and found I could lock other dark spirits, I was afraid that they'd attack me too heh (but I've never attacked them).
And hell, if some of them don't like when people butt in on their fights, doing pvp in I
rithyll
They can attack any phantom invading the area. Usually they just attack the host. Alternatively, as an
Aldritch Faithful
Poison is pretty nerfed from Dark Souls 2, where it was ridiculously OP, I personally think bleed is better for PVE.

I've already assumed that for me it will likely have to be an INT run rather than a mage run, although I don't know exactly how much FP high FP can give you.My mage is using offensive spells, not buffs. That's the point of being a mage. Though my damn fire-infused Astora sword is getting a lot of use... because mages are gimped.
I'd happily keep poison on an Uchi if I wasn't using sharp (dex scaling). I made my Bandit's Knife poison for that double effect goodness, but it doesn't get much use because my Uchi is better. I still pull it out every now and again because its speed has its uses.

you can get the entire
set but they didn't put the weapons in this time
silver knight
Damn, gotta stick with greatbow trolling for now I guess...you can get the entireset but they didn't put the weapons in this timesilver knight

This was so disappointing. I got excited when I saw a spear wielding silver knight only to realize he drops everything except the spear.
Yeah but in the end, there's no point in doing that. I mean, they don't get any reward, except some souls.
But huh, if they have fun doing it, well okay then lol

Never played any souls, so as a noob should I play blind or should I look up lots of FAQ/guides to avoid pitfalls.
I don't mind guides that show spoilers so are there any guides that show you how to do as much of the interesting stuff (NPC quests?) in the fewest runs? Like a "most efficient run".

My favorite area by far in the game.

Oh, that area is a mind-bender for sure.
The Untended Graves are implied to either be the 'real' Cemetary of Ash/Firelink Shrine or those areas in the past. If you die to the boss there, go back to the arena where the first boss was fought. Apparently, you will find your death spot there.

Thx, for the tip. Will do. But for now I need a fresh coffee.
Close to wrapping up NG+, the difficulty bump is so weird. As expected every knight is an even bigger pain in the ass, but bosses hardly feel any different. I got NK in two tries, I've been killed more times by those frost knights that can end me in a 3-hit combo.
And I completely forgot how much I abused poison arrows in DS2. Trying them now and I guess it's been nerfed hard, I couldn't get it to proc on anything.

So, I just fought
Aldrich. Holy hell he does a lot of damage with each attack. Was also interesting to see that he devoured Gwyndolin. They didn't show his hallway for no reason, and I guess it makes sense that if they were ever to have a new boss wear an old one as a skin they'd go for him, considering his whole tentacle body thing. Wonder if there are any other callback bosses waiting, not just thematically.

If you're at all interested in the story, there are summary videos on YouTube that can bring you up to speed in about 5 minutes for the short ones.
The basics are taught to you in the tutorial area, and the main thing to remember is that you will die, but in general the game won't be cheap. It's more your mistakes that lead to your death. Don't be too aggressive, and try to keep a little bit of stamina at all times so you can roll (it has i-frames) if needed. Observe enemy attacks and wait for your chance to strike.

I died twixe dodging heaps and shit.
Best them when I just got balls deep in the pack with a wide swinging weapon and destroyed it fucking stupidly easy.
Edit: soul level 1...yeah ok fuck that.

I am occasionally finding that my rolls and attacks don't come out despite me pressing the buttons... but that could simply be a timing mistake on my part. However, I've played Dark Souls 1 & 2 on PC with the same setup (wireless DS4 + DS4Windows) and haven't had any problems like this.
If its the dungeon area, feel free.

NG+ after chalice dungeons in Bloodborne was a hilarious cake walk. Even NG+ is still easy.
Oh god yeah, fuck Chalice Dungeons. The main "final" boss of them was amazing, but the rest of the thing was just horseshit.
The Catacombs level in DS3 reminds me of the Chalice Dungeons the most. Hate it.
Well the first four bosses or so are pretty easy anyway, so it's not surprising that NG+ doesn't make them a lot harder.

I think I've hit my first wall.
Played DaS, DaS2 and Bloodborne.
Just reached the I

The areas before that weren't my favourites. S
L
and D
Ruins were a chore. Too many enemies in a tight space. Things are starting to kill me quite fast.
Now, I killed the
in I
Valley, but man! After that, things start to kill me in like 2 hits, rolling is hard because the enemies seem to have loooooong combos that stagger you.
I rolled a dex char.

Any tips for this area? I'm about lvl 45, is that too low? It really breaks my flow.
Especially those tall dudes that make a flame column raise beneath you are a b*tch. Too man little guys surrounding them.
