I just ran up to it, hit it a few times and ran out of its attack range. Rinse and repeat, easy cheese!

Anyone know if there are still framerate issues on PS4 when playing offline? Apparently the latest patch caused some problems and I've been wanting to finally start playing this weekend.

It seems scary as hell, but it really only has two attacks. Turn off the
ballista

run towards the boss door, let him pop out of the ground and he will be facing away from you, just run up and hit him a few times, back up a lil bit, rinse and repeat. Cheese as fuck.

Does beating the last boss automatically start new game +? Or can you still farm and buy things.

Yeah he's probably not as formidable as he looks. His emergence from the lake was intimidating as fuck though lol.

Not this time, it will ask if you want to start a new game. Do not if you want to buy stuff.
you can refuse to move into ng+ right away.

Shit. Wasted 20K souls on that
what a waste. The merchant trolled me as I was expecting a decent place to find useful loot and maybe some decent enemies to farm more souls. What a bitch for charging me that much. I want a refund

GHSS is the only sorcery projectile worth a damn. I spent hours grinding today to get my INT to 45 to use Soul Stream. It's cool looking, but not worth it vs GHSS.

That's great! You still see the ending and everything?
Lol, someone summoned me as a mound maker. I am in co-op type of mood, so was trying to help them out. But their other summon starts attacking me. Not realizing I was summoned, not invading. So now I'm just hanging back letting them kill enemies and get me Souls. Hopefully one of them dies.
I wonder. If you soon a mound maker, can you send them back via the crystal? I hope not

So I got to the respec cov place in Catherdal and went back to firelink shrine. I main a LS +3 and had the butcher knife in my inventory.
I go AFK and my wife upgrades my knife to +4 which used my only large tit shards....I assume after this boss..LRG become more common?
Hacking scare? They hack your save?

If you stand in just the right spot, the ballista will hit it while it's aiming at you.

Huzzah so for the first time after buying the game I actually have some internet so I tried some of the Covenants.
Little bit of sunbroing for
and quite a few times for
im a bit sad I could only do
once but Im guessing thats either because of my SL 51 being too high or that people have a tendancy not to summon and would rather just sprint right past the wraiths.
Must be too high for the watchdogs of farron as I couldnt get even one summon but I did head to
and done a bit of pvp as a mad phantom man that was fun. Especially when you spawn behind the enemies the bring them into the square.
Not sure I got the etique down yet are mad phantoms not allowed to heal if its 1v1? I did it once and the guy stopped and Im like hey you chose to fight I just wanna be in the red phantom chaos.
Quite hilarious when i got summoned as a sunbro with another the host leads us through the level which is clean of enemies to
and an invader just squatting between them all. So I did the only noble thing and got prompty mauled by the two sword guys and surely lured the whole mob plus the red phantom to our jittery host of embers. Whoops!
Tried sitting with the blue sentinal on but got nothing. Also what am I suppose to do about the rosario fingers thing? just invade? If its a red soapstone invasion does that count to?

Whoa. Just did a visceral attack on one of those gaping lizard dog assholes. Didn't even know that was possible.
I don't get why I doesn't have any other attacks besides that one laser he shoots in the same direction every time. It's like they had the enemy ready to go but didn't have enough time to give it more attacks but decided to keep it in anyway. Wouldn't be surprised if that was meant to be the actual boss there instead of the demon king which is basically another stray demon anyway.

Well, I finally finished NG. Fantastic entry to the series. Easily beat my expectations and then some. So many cool moments and surprises. Bosses were some of the best in the series, level design was labyrinthine as ever and the art direction continues to be world class.
There were still a few technical issues From needs to iron out and I have some nitpicks on a few design decisions, but overall my gut impression is that this is the best Souls game yet.
Now to spend countless hours sunbroing and helping others out where I can.

That's basically my opinion as well. It's the perfect "medieval" Souls game with castles & dragons and shit. Lothric Castle beast Boletaria and that is quite the feat. I mean I cannot imagine anyone, not even FROM, doing a better fantasy Souls game than that. Even if they will it will be more of the same and people will be bored and nitpick the game to death.
Where do they go next? I need sci-fi Souls...
So much this. This game is everything I wanted out of a Dark Souls 1 sequel and then more. A fantastic Souls game AND a fantastic Dark Souls 1 "sequel".
DS2 can rot in hell now. What a mistep that game was.
Not really. Faith takes a really long time to get going, and there are very few weapons that scale well with faith.
Also lightning spear damage is awful.

Five random invasions in a row and so far the host and all phantoms I've seen have had Dark Swords, lol.
Some variety people, please!

Yoooo. Sci-fi souls would be interesting as hell. Something like a souls version of Dead space?
I did hit and runs. If you see it wind up for the spin2win I rolled towards its right arm (left side when facing it). Just roll under the sweeps and move back then run in for a hit or two when he is done.
I gank the gankers:
😈
these kids these days with their gank squads and giants seeds don't know what it was like in the heyday of DeS and DaS being invaded.
but it made us better for it
You don't even need to do anything. Just go around to the other side and
let the ballista shoot it for you.

So about that glitch where you can kill the dancer early in the game..people keep saying you get access to good gear, but is that gear from chests in the castle, or do you need to explore? Won't the rest of the castle be high level making it hard to get any of that gear anyway at a low level?

If you're on PS4 I am down to help.
If you're trying to solo, she's not that quick and being very patient is super important. Don't get greedy. 1-2 hits back off. Use pillars for cover at times.

A guy figured out how to hit someone with their weapon and ruin your character and softban it. He decided to share it with others as well.

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
Boy I sure do hate being a lame console peasant these days.
That framerate is shit though 
I think it's just not true. I've been playing PvP and coop nonstop since the game released and nothing has happened so far.
That is bizarre.

It's absolutely true, the guy streamed himself doing it for a long time today.

I was making my way through (early game) U
S
and I got invaded by
. Managed to kill him and then made my way to the C
and killed it. Afterwards I realized that I was at the Mound Makers altar, and when I looked up how to join the covenant it looks like I missed my chance?
I don't particularly care since none of the covenant rewards seem interesting, but I'm interested if there is any other way to join it, or if I have to wait until NG+?
Also, screw that dude with the greatbow firing at me from a tower.

How do you know you have been soft banned?
Hard as hell boss, laggy as fuck in room, Gj From
Just won, baited her into the stupid spin move repeatedly and just got a couple hits in each time. Dumb
You may have have a second chance later.
