Just equip that emblem and farm the deacons after
Pontiff
Anor Londo
I'm doing a bleed playthrough at the moment using
Warden Twinblades
The enemies with the cross on their back in
Crucifixion Woods
Abyss Watchers
They're in the next major area,
Lothric Castle

Of course the one time I complete
's quest line is in the only run where 1v1 with Y
might have actually been a challenge. That being said, what a great quest. I'm just sad that it was so damn easy to miss it in literally every other run I've had.

Go to the beggining of the bridge and then come back. It will spawn.

I think I've found my waifu
And all the painted world gear being near is kinda appropriate, so I guess FROM played me, by basically appealing to me the same way
Shield of Want ups item discovery? I thought it didn't but yeah just equip all of those and if you can respec so that you have high luck. You get coins from Patches.
You can buy bronze coins from
Patches.
The shield of want raises the number of Souls dropped by enemies.
Coins,
Gold and Rusted, can eventually be purchased infinitely from Greirat (the char with the hood on in the cell in early Lothric - you get access to Gold Coins by helping him survive his second farming run, which is after you've opened up the portion of Lothric Castle after the Dancer), Rusted Coins can be purchased infinitely from Patches as well. Go to the wiki to learn more about how to get Greirat through his runs - it's a bit tricky if you've never done it before
One other thing I can say about Item Discovery is that it seems inconsistent. I'm not sure if Item Discovery actually improves the chances of finding items or just improves the quality of items when enemies do drop them. Would be very curious to know exactly how the formula works. I've seen people talking about using hacks that do indicate that enemies can only drop a maximum of five items at a time, not that it really helps anyone to know that.

Any tips on how to invade via Blue Sentinels/Dark? Anor Londo is a hot spot and I can invade just fine, but never be summoned.

I beat the (late-game spoiler)
During the fight, all I was thinking was "something's wrong, this feel badly designed", hah.
Ancient Wyvern yesterday... on the stairs. Having just now read the proper way of fighting the boss, I feel like an utter dumbass. The fight dragged on for what felt like an eternity and made me rage at the camera for the first time. I dealt 40-50 damage per swing on its hind legs and, if I was lucky, could sneak in a few hits on its belly or tail for a whopping 250 damage!

Just finished it. Explored pretty much every square inch and my time was 31 hours. I found all 15 flasks and +10 bone shards. Found a ton of slabs so I can upgrade a bunch of weps but I primarily used the +5 Fume Ultra Greatsword and the Dark sword +10. Not sure when I'll jump into NG+ because might want to go into DS2 to try and compare them. I had fun but overall I think its the weakest game in the series, but I'll re-evaluate after I play DS2 again.

Hah, I guessed exactly what the gif is about. So elegant.

Invade 2 kids turtling behind black knight shields.
Still win.
Still win.
I suspect we're going to see a wave of people hiding behind great shields due to those Havel's videos just to piss people off.
Still, better than Estoc & Dark Sword R1 spammers.
Honestly, the auto summons are bugged on PC right now.
Wow the story in these games is another level of terribleness. Thankfully the gameplay and sound design is amazing. Really wish the story would be better.
Quest Spoiler involving Anri
Quest Spoiler involving Anri
So she summons me to help her defeat a boss, which I do, then I fight her where I defeated Horace, both of them had no dialog they just engaged me. I just helped her 5 minutes after we are dueling to the death, not a single word spoken.
2 handed h
avel
I got three of them tonight, and beat all but one of them. The last one I didn't beat just because he started healing once I was about to kill him so I said fuck it and ran off a cliff. The key seems to be is have a weapon with really long reach and roll in completely asinine directions to bait a hit, then counter attack at the right time.

I've tried PvP. I already have 19 swordgrass and 20 shackles from PvP+loot/minimal farming. Equipped the bluebros covenant right when I got it, and never got summoned to assist. Farmed wolfbros at level 30 for a long time, but eventually the summon time was just too long to justify waiting around. Mound-makers and Fingers are a total crapshoot - without another friendly phantom (likely players summoned to guard an area), your odds of getting ganked are super high. Between long wait times for defensive covenant summoning and gankfests for invasion covenants, I don't find PvP to be a reliable way to get items.
In DS2 the only farming I recall having to do for a covenant was killing the NPC red phantom 30 times for the bell tower covenant. Sure, there were sunlight medals, but co-op is reliable, easy, and benefits other players. I didn't mind getting 30 medals in DS2 or DS3 one bit.

Dude how'd you miss the developer messages that are everywhere? Haha. If anything I felt they revealed too much too easily.
Did you tell her about Smoldering Lake? She goes hollow when she finds Horace, there's nothing for her anymore. Her quest is over and she lost her companion.

So.
If I
If I
defeat abyss watchers before deacons of the deep, am I locked out of the lord of hollows ending?
Shackles and fingers are super easy to get a hold of man.
Go to the first lothric bonfire, PS bonfire, or Great Belfry bonfire and lay down a sign. I had the best time with shackles at lothric bonfire due to just about every other summon being a fight club and you don't have to kill the host in order to secure a shackle.
I beat this one poor bastard named Founder or something like 5 times tonight for super fast fingers. I don't know why in the world he kept summoning me >.>
but he/she was hollow from the start?

I'll give it a shot, thanks.
No, he/she was undead. Hollow is when they lose all sense of self and turn into something like zombies. The enemies sitting and shaking their heads are hollow.
Edit: http://darksouls.wikia.com/wiki/Hollow
That is indeed correct but Hollows can remain sane as long as they have a objective or goal. If such is taken away from them, they usually lose their sanity.
S/he was a Hollow. Horace is a Hollow too.
I found Horace but did not told her since he was hostile, then I decided to kill him. I guess she was mad I killed him or something

A
down on the second try, first one I died only due to
ldrich
his second phase arrow rain being completely unexpectedly long and wide.
I thought that's the right thing to do for her quest. I don't know!
1v1 is best at PS bonfire for pale tongues, whereas fight clubs happen more at the highwall for shackles. Great belfry is kind of annoying because a lot of the times dudes will spawn you and run straight to the fog door for shits and giggles, but if the other two aren't responding it's good to try there.
Anri always goes mad and attacks you at the end of that version of his/her quest line. She has slayed Aldrich, which was her only objective and therefore lost sight of herself and succumbed to her Hollowing.
It makes perfect sense for his/her character arc, I loved the storyline this time around especially.
Anri is destined to go Hollow unless you're following the Unsurption of Fire ending quest line. If you tell him/her about that place when Horace is alive still then she will die there. If you tell her after killing him then it doesn't matter, him/her going mad and attacking you is the correct ending for that version of his/her storyline.
