Cool, I've been using the claymore and while I like the damage, it feels a little slow. Would you say the dark sword is faster?
I haven't found that yet (although I know where it is). The Ultra Machete just really fits my style. Literally only one move but I don't really care because it hits so hard and isn't too slow.

I switched from the Claymore to a Dark Sword because the DS is amazingly fast in comparison. I don't really feel like heavy weapons are super viable in this game right now.

aw man, I just beat the (mid late game spoilers)D
ragon Slayer Armor. He was such a fucking fun fight. Had to throw away my great shield and two hand my great sword. It felt very much like know your iframes the fight. Rolling through his attacks to chip away at his health. Hated the dragon fire or stuff that came down in the second "phase", but I'm so glad I kept trying to beat it. I'm sure I could have beaten it quicker with jolly cooperation, but I felt I needed to do this solo. So cool

How far into the game are you? I think after a point he dies even if he is unused but I might be wrong as I used him early.
EDIT: Just reread. I think the pilgrim mentioned before is a different pilgrim that is an assassin and you are talking about Yoel of Londor who is also a pilgrim?

Yeah I tried to do the valley with Black Knight UGS but its just not viable enough. Enemies are faster and relentless, the Dark Sword fucks them up much easier and you'll have easier stamina management.

So image spoilers don't work on mobile, do they?
Fuck. Legitimately upset, time to go wallow with some chick fil a and try to forget I saw that.

Run straight into the lake, and on one of the patches of land the arrow can break the ground, dropping you into a new area. You can work your way through this area until it puts you next to the thing that's shooting the arrows at you.
Explore the area. Specific:
explore the lower ruins, the dungeon/tunnels. Eventually you'll find a path that leads to the ballista.

You need to get inside a hole in the middle of the lake or through a path next to the boss fog door and work you way up to stop it

Dragon Slayer Greataxe is probably one of my favorite Boss weapons. So incredibly fast and tons of damage.
If only it's moveset wasn't so vertical in nature.

They didn't touch them.
Don't think they'll even touch them, they're fine, not as OP as other Souls.

Since yesterday there hasn't been much summoning signs or summons for me. Anyone else?(Steam version btw)

Are you hollowed? I think that prevents summoning, but I could be wrong.

Being hollowed doesn't prevent summoning, unless you mean unembered?

Anyone have extra symbol of avarice that can give em to me?
They do in every other Soulsborne, no reason why they wouldn't transfer in this one.
Was your account flagged for having "invalid data"? My wife's Japanese Steam account was flagged last night, and today "penalized" for "breaking the terms of online play" even though she never actually played the game. Never even created her first character, mind you.
This is my first Souls game and I am only at a
. All I can say (if you havent played a Souls game yet) is that what everyone is saying is true. Incredible game! The sense of foreboding, of genuine exploration with fear and the knowledge every death is preventable through better play is real. After meeting a few NPCs I checked a wiki just to see how deep 'questlines' go. So esoteric but they reward thougt from the player in understanding the world around them. No more spoilers for me.
I still don't fully understand all the mechanics and systems in this game but discovering them is a pleasure. Oh and don't play this game tired. I fell down an elevator shaft 3x last nighht not realising the elevator wasn't there. >.<

I also killed all on that page as well as scoured each area again until everything was dead and no stone was left unturned. No more mimic's were found. NG+ I go.
That has been my last three days. Terrible . haven't seen a friendly summon sign in ages, and I can't seem to be summoned either.
Yeah, having too much fun with this Pyro build lol.

After finishing Dark Souls III and loving every minute of it I decided to try Dark Souls I and that was a mistake, it's just so bad in comparison. I know I may get death threats for this but hear me out. I think if I could rewind time and play the series in order, without having experienced Bloodborne and Dark Souls III I would have liked it more, but now it just feels really slow and clunky with some truly "anti fun" mechanics (like the curse which halves your HP until you speak to the NPC, I much prefer how it's handled in DS3 or the Ghosts which you can't attack without a cursed weapon or consumable which are expensive for the level and limited). I really, really tried to like it, I have about 10 hours into it but I wasn't having fun for most of that time and now I've just thrown in the towel for good. Also the port isn't good at all even with DSFix. Oh and no fast travel really did rustle my jimmies.
