Can I remove the fire gem from my weapon if need be? Is it worth putting fire gems in a weapon?
So I just got to the
. I got to him first because I put down my sign since I had no idea what to do in this area. I don't know if this is the final boss but it sure looks like a fucking epic fight. Haven't tried him myself yet, just trying to get an idea of the fight helping others.

You can use a shriving stone to remove the gem, but you won't get the gem back. I put a fire gem on a long sword since I've gotten plenty of them as drops and use it as a backup.

I used a +4 Fire Broadsword for a large portion of the first half of the game so it's entirely feasible, with the right build I suppose.
You don't "put" gems into weapons here, you imbue the weapon with the power of said gem. The change is generally permanent, but can be overridden with another gem or reset to normal state with a shriving stone via the same process.
And fire weapons are good when facing enemies weak to fire... Their worth is situational, but great in just such situations.

That's a great way to set up the screen shot. How do you manage to get ears for MoundMakers? I cannot for the life of me get summoned in the freaking PvP area.

Is it possible to drop items as a phantom to give to the host? I ask cause I was wondering if it would be possible to give someone items to have them trade them back to one of my other characters. My first character I have a Symbol of Avrice but I abandoned her for my current build/character which I've now put far more time into but I could REALLY use this helmet to help with farming some of these covenant items. Especially Darkmoon since I NEVER seem to get summoned no matter what I do and I have yet to see a single drop from these stupid silver knights.
Just invade.

Congrats, I finished the covenant grind today so just have to run through the game.

was such a good fight, but a bit easy (got it on my second try). Well, I think I haven't fought a hard boss.
I have a question regarding the Cathedral:

I have a question regarding the Cathedral:
The part with both giants, you find something like bridges that you can bring up. I lifted 2 of the 3 bridges, but I can't find the lever of the third one, which seems to actually connect to a zone that is unreachable otherwise. Any hints of where it could be located?

Congrats. I'd be there sooner than later if this covenant item grind doesn't take me the next month. ._.
Make sure you're using the red sign soapstone otherwise it doesn't work.
I think it's like 1.7%

There's a ladder on a ledge on the upper outside part of the cathedral that leads to the upper rafters and across to the area you're talking about. I can't remember exactly how to get there but it's a square terrace with some enemies you can jump down and fight.

This seems to work. At least I get summoned.
I'll try this later.
It doesn't matter because PvP is so fucking laggy WTF .

Finally beat the game with my Pyro class. Loved it to pieces. Currently replaying it again as a Knight and wow things feel different when you have actual armor and can take many hits.

So strength + Vigor the primary skills to level for a 2 handed wielding knight?

Watching a guy do a speed run on Twitch and it's amazing all the little tricks they do, and how easily they kill the bosses while low level. I've never watched a full run but I'm going to watch this one.
Basically I believe.

It's annoying as hell when you wanna 1 vs 1 someone only for it to be 1 vs 3...
Finally done the game! First Souls game I've completed(Bloodborne doesnt count). Overall I'd give the game an 8-8.5/10. Im pretty sure I beat all the bosses and got almost all the items for NG. The ending was complete garbage to me(but then again I thought BB's ending was pretty bad too) Loved the different builds you can make, but the game is clearly not designed for casters in mind. Being a pyro,(first time playing a caster in the series) the game goes up and down in terms of difficulty. For me it was:
early game - Medium; spells are near worthless and its better to just use an infused melee weapon. Bosses and regular mobs are more difficult because of this, but mobs and bosses arent too difficult.
mid-game - Extremely easy; Your spells go from worthless to pretty much OP vs enemies and bosses. Bosses are a complete pushover once you learn their patterns and can have time to cast safely
late-game - Cheat-Code Easy/Very Hard - regular mobs are even easier than before because at this point your spells are insanely OP not to mention

Twin Princes, Consumed King, Gundyr
Overall it was a great game, but I really hope that this is the last DS. the amount of callbacks to the previous titles was a bit too much and things felt a little too familiar. I want to see FROM do something different.
Are you using the red sign soapstone?

It happens to me too. I put my red soapstone sign and I get summoned, only to get host and his fuck buddy attacking me while I'm waving hi or trying to initiate a duel.
Assholes.

if you're invading that's on you for expecting a duel lmao, you are literally ruining the game the host is having don't expect him to drop everything to play fair.
