Nope. Door won't open.
Maybe it's because I'm doing this area out of order? I've still not gone through
Anor Londo or the Profaned Capital.

You guys...
This game is so much fun. I have no idea what I am doing or where I am supposed to be going but it's just such an amazing feeling killing something you were struggling with!

Ah, that could be why. You have to do those areas first, lol.

I switched to an alt account to ditch my embarrassing tag so I could be an embarrassing Naughty Dog fanboy in peace. Ask me anything!
Level 60 after just beating Cathedral? Holy shit you will destory everything in Farron and beyond. You are way over leveled.
eh? It's good for people who just want to get through the game. Also, there are numerous ways to be ganked by invading spirits. Plus a later covenant needs certain items from it, so it's good that people use it
don't convince people to stop, lol

The real disappointment is that the
covenant is so early in the game, once you are leveled up enough the covenant becomes useless.
Watchdogs of Farron
I've run into a sort of brick wall of my own making.
The little tunnel with theand themonstrous rathas an entrance that's near aGrave Key pathway. The problem is, one of thembridge with a couple of those big pot-throwing machete dudesthrew a pot at me and knocked me off the bridge.
I returned to the area but can't find my souls. Is there a way to go to theI'm too scared to jump off because it looks kind of high.level beneath the bridge?
I can't continue without my ~5,000 dropped soulsssssss
EDITL ugh i've been looking for like an hour already, where the hell are you souls, HALP
Dude ~5000 Souls are nothing to worry about, move on and farm a little bit helping people with bosses.
Losing Souls is part of the game
Wait how did you get to that point?
If you killed the Dancer then that means that you
killed the 3 lords which means that you were in Anor Londo and Profaned Capital.
You sure? I've been trying NK with 45% f for like 30 times and always get rekt within second when phase 2 starts. It's like I can never dodge any of his attacks. After dropping load to 32%, I can actually dodge through his combo's or plunge attacks no problem and find openings to attack. Got him on my 2nd try. I can definitely feel a difference here.

Is there anything besides a merchant in the
firelink shrine past Champion Gundyr? It seems like you can get elsewhere but I can't open any of the gates
Dark Souls 2 stays winning.
Tree is a weird DPS check of sorts. Try to be +2 with your weapon of choice if you can.
You can actually encounter the dancer as your first real boss fight right after Iudex.

This is the first time I've lost souls because the regeneration blob never appeared, though, and that's what is frustrating me. I refuse to accept it
Don't use lock-on and seek those ugly tumor-like growths on its crotch, ass, and arms. Go to town with as many consecutive normal (not heavy) slashes as you can.

Three darkmoon summons right in a row and then a 20min gap -.-
Still waiting :/

Just had the same experience. I've recorded that run and sometimes I just stood still thinking "this can't be right, wth!"
And that plunge was godlike.
Yep. Game locks you out of going any further for whatever reason. Kinda stupid imo, as it curbs what little path variance the game has for no reason.
Usually, when you fall off a cliff, the bloodstain will appear at the place where you fell from. If not, then it could have glitched. Happens on rare occasions in Souls games.That fact is not lost on me, believe me. I've been playing this series my entire adult life

LOL that's hilarious. Did not know that.
So that guy killed
Dragonslayer without killing the other Lord?
chaos blade, hornet ring, coiled sword fragment, blacksmith hammer and the fire keeper eyes I think.
Variance is good, but otherwise, you are skipping a huge portion of the game. You can pretty much go straight to the end from the beginning area if they didn't lock you out.

I don't know how much of a souls vet you are, but for large bosses like the tree boss, don't lock your camera on him. It hinders your mobility against large mobs plus the souls camera isn't great for large mobs.
Stay far away from him and try to bait his attacks, he has a pretty big vulnerability period after slamming his branches down. He also has weak points all over his body after he has fallen through the floor, so you don't necessarily need to hit him in the junk.
Yep. You just got used to the timings.

Lmao some people are such cowards. Summoning me as a Mad Spirit and then running away to the boss room when they start losing. Lmao. I did stop one guy who tried to run to the boss door though.

How does the
work in this game?
I wonder what they changed.

I dropped an item, got a reaction, reloaded, but...there was nothing there.
It's simply more immediate. No need to reload.
Dark Souls 2 improvements*
Necromanti

Really? I checked but didn't see anything there. I hope the item's not gone.
Yeah, the reload thing was strange and needlessly complicated.
It will tell you immediately if it likes it or not and spit out the old/new item.

Wha? can you be over leveled? Wouldn't they cap you?

I found it pretty odd that the key to the door was right in front of it basically.
Well that makes more sense I guess...it's there to keep you from that area until you clear the other lords. Interesting.
Make sure you pick "leave" and not "discard".

It's one of the few times I actually wish I were streaming this or caught my reaction on camera because it would have been hilarious. My gf was laughing hysterically and she didn't even know what the hell had happened and what I was going on about. It was honestly close to the Gametrailers guys flipping out over Shenmue 3 lol

It's the only covenant that does something when you're just running around PvE-ing. Sometimes I just put it on if I don't plan on summoning.

Holy zen, just beat the boss with the
. Character looked like a badass with his armor get up
hollow lord ending
Really loving the
, finally unlocked all the shortcuts to the top of the initial area with the
. It's a tough area and a little confusing, but it feels like an improved version of DS1's Duke Archives. Also just got my Wolf Knight Greatsword and Heavy Broadsword to max reinforcement, so that feels good. Won't be on the lookout for damn scale titanite all over the place anymore.
Soul level 81 so far, rolling in the
set with
Shield. Looking forward to getting through the rest of the game. About how much do I have left?

Those guys have always been assholes. I'm still poking around there myself even after having finished the main story.
