I summoned an NPC for the C
Sunbro is extremely easy. There's coop everywhere. I have max sunbro in my two characters.
I wish I could exchange Covenants items. like 10 sunbro medals for 1 bluebro ear. Would still be faster than this.

Got the new patch and still can't play online, fails to calibrate every time.
Hasn't worked once.

but how come they were back-to-back in my 1st playthrough and this time they weren't?...meaning the 2nd boss fight started immediately with no break...this time I had to activate it...was it always like this?

You're probably just remembering it wrong. You have to talk to the lady and place the basin for the fight to start.

It never started immediately. Did you start the fight when you were first time there?
I think you could also go Luck build with Anri' Sword(?)
Respec to 99 Luck also if possible.
Edit: Derp. Missed you said coins.

Assassin has the be the most OP starting class. Spook and an Estoc(+ Fire Gem as gift). Backstabs and shortcuts galore.
Yes, and you retain all the badges. No need to rejoin.
You need both.
You need both.
In my understanding yes. Covenant item droprates are shit no matter what though. What are you going to farm?

This is why I always do my first run through the game solo. That way I know the OHKO attacks and can actually help the phantoms. Nothing worse than getting to the boss's big attack and having the host eat it on five different attempts in a row.
wait, you don't? That's pretty awful. I think DkS2 carried ranks over.
It's not really an argument against getting full estus with someone that's running around low-level. If you beat the game at SL30, you could destroy everyone NG+ no matter how few estus flasks you have.

Spook has been a lifesaver more often than I'd like to say. Being able to dash to backstab and survive/not get hurt by falls is great

These curse hands in the
look great, I don't think there's been an 'enemy' that looked quite like this before in a Souls game. Damn things have cursed me twice though, both times chasing treasure and running through them!

Currently going for swordgrass but I'll need to get the concord kept stuff too. And if possible, the dregs as I haven't figured out how to get them properly so far. The other covenants are done through regular pvp, lots of fun

Ehh, my pure int* build seem to be doing OK with pyromancies, though I'm sure it's far more powerful with both. I don't know about needing both, it depends if you're going pure pyro or not I guess. I use a mix of pyro and sorceries.
* Well okay, I got like 14 faith since I started with a pyromancer but I never levelled it up beyond that.
Been helping boss summons for the past couple nights. Soul of Cinder seems to be the fastest summon (always less than 5 minutes), but it is a snoozefest. Twin Princes fight takes awhile to get summons and Dancer was relatively fast. I think I got the most souls out of Dancer summons (almost 50k a fight with the Silver Ring) and was able to do 4 fights in 10 minutes one time.
I wish there was something productive to do while waiting for your summon sign to get called.
Might be more adventurous and try for Dragonslayer summons as the fight wasn't bad, just a little dicey. Pontiff might be doable as well.

Ahhh! I knew that had to be for something! At first I thought it would make enemies non-hostile. Thanks.

Fun times ahead then. Dregs drop from the Deacons after Pontiff but the Covenant seems to work pretty well so might want to try that before starting to farm them.

Now I'll leave the game waiting for the first DLC. Don't want to start NG+, if the DLC is like Bloodborne (more difficult than the main game) then NG+ would be a pain in the ass.

If you test on the level up screen, you get more AR per point in your pyromancy glove if you level them both. Or, if INT is 15 and FTH is 20, you'll still get more of a return from another point of FTH until you level INT a bit more. But, in the end you want them even
I think they look kinda silly, like some Scooby Doo enemy lol
On PC there's been a huge demand for Nameless King summons. If I threw down my summon sign I would be summoned nearly instantly. And it was hard for me to summon people into my world because any signs that popped up would be taken right away.
After having unlocked all the achievements on Xbox One version before release (had to do it all offline) - here is them ranked in order of annoyingness for the trophies/achievements.Currently going for swordgrass but I'll need to get the concord kept stuff too. And if possible, the dregs as I haven't figured out how to get them properly so far. The other covenants are done through regular pvp, lots of fun
1. Vertebrae Shackles (req 30) - annoying rolling ball requires some focus, can't just zone out
2. Concord Kepts (req 30) - drop rate seems to be worse than the others, but the knights were easy with a magic build
3. Tongues (req 10) - dark wraiths are pretty annoying, but they seemed to drop often
4. Sunlight Medals (req 30) - not too bad, fire was close by
5. Grass (req 30) - very close fire and 3 enemies to farm, annoying how the body falls off the bridge sometimes
6. Dregs (req 10) - obtained quickly, easy enemies
During my PS4 copy play-through, I have managed to obtain almost all items relatively quickly online. Except the Concord Ears and Grass and by the looks of it, the latest patch did not fix Darkmoon or Watchdogs. So, I guess I'll be farming these again.
Most bosses break in coop. Their mechanics and AI simply aren't designed for multiple targets. This is why I just shake my head when people summon for these bosses without even seeing them solo first or after dying a WHOLE 3 times. One of my co-workers actually said this to me... "Oh ya, abyss watchers were easy." - "Oh ya?" - "Ya, my summon just distracted him the whole time." - "-.-" - "Ya I summon if I die 3 times or so."
Like why even bother?

Oh, I know they do. Must have made millions of souls helping people defeat the final boss by now lol.
NK holds up suprisingly well though, at best half of the hosts that summoned me survived the fight. That
lightning strike
I did the same thing. Was running low on Estus and had a ton of souls without a bonfire in sight. He'll get another chance.

Damn that's amazing. I hope I invade these people some time. PS4?Nope
I'm not that crazy.

The game is extremely enjoyable regardless of the route people choose, some people may prefer to not go through that headache and/or are not into being that frustrated (i.e. dying 20 times on a boss, like my coworkers that gave up on Bloodborne).
I commend From on the Summons because it gives people options.
How do I get those then without farming? Just equip the covenant item and hope I get summoned? Without the soapstones? Any particular places to stand in?
