What level should I be right after Crytstal Sage boss?
Having trouble killing things and wanted to know what I could be doing wrong.

Are there any "hidden" challenges in DS3? Like a no death run or no-bonfire run? I guess that the latter is impossible due to the Firelink Shrine being more like a hub alá Demon's Souls rather than a place in the gaming world like it is in Dark Souls 1 and 2.

Someone call the cops, on a 5 invasion win streak now. Even an 1 v 2. Dat Gundyr.
So it's the controllers fault because of how you put it down? I'm fairly certain the trigger didn't push itself.

Keep your shield up as much as you can, but learn to realize the seconds when you can afford to drop it and let the stamina recharge. Even if it's only 2-3 seconds. It's a pattern you just have to get a feel for.
For the most part, stayed locked on to enemies and constantly be trying to get behind them. I honestly don't roll that much. But I'm always trying to circle behind enemies.

Dude, I have to say, if you aren't completely careful to an extreme amount with that controller, the button will absolutely press itself.

I can understand his complaint. There's really no reason these games shouldn't have a pause function at this point.

What levels are fight clubs happening at?
SL100 and SL120 I think for the most part

it's the norm to do duels. It's more popular at the point after P

I'm at level 70ish and always getting summoned. so probably 50 and above after the point I mentioned above.
Posts like this make no sense to me. I've completed all of the Souslborne games and I don't see any fundamental difference between the dodge in Bloodborne and the roll in Souls games. They're both functionally the same, the dodge is just a bit faster and has a different animation. Am I missing something?
That's pretty cool. I guess I'll max out Pyro one day and Firestorm everyone.

Haha, first time I played Bloodborne in a friends house I placed the controller down on the sofa and the R2 trigger was pressed so fucking easily I killed that lady in the Hunter's Dream. I thought I had fucked up hard but she "revives"... which wasn't too bad, but I feel your pain.

the second someone break the rule of the duel you better watch out like EVERYONE stops, turns to face him and just rush that motherfucker to kingdom come.
This sounds fun

Bleed procs are insane! This guy invaded me and probably thought he'd have an easy time (nearly did! I suck at PVP), and just after he bled me, I bled him and won.

The only game I never played/beat was DS2, and normally I'd tend to agree with you. It's worth mentioning that I played Demon's Souls and DS1 at the time of release for each game, so I don't know what it is about BB that ruined me for DS3.
and you are aware of this just like me. When I step away, I make sure it's done carefully and/or I'm faced away from an important NPC.
If you put it down carefully, it won't happen. Only point I was making.

Right, but that is just dealing with it being a piece of crap as far as trigger sensitivity goes when setting it down. If you are being as careful as you are in this case, you must have had a close call with it as well.
I don't disagree that being careful is the way to go. But I don't believe we should have to be as careful as that to just set the controller down.
Yep!

It shouldnt be a problem when playing offline, i agree. Playing online however, even if soloing everything, it wouldnt work well.
Why would I want to clear the vigils and when can I do it? I got all 5 levels now.
I know there's a shortcut but when I go to use it, it takes me down instead of up. I had to run quite a ways to the boss after each death.
The theme is fucking fantastic, love it, and the fight is really fun.
Just sharing my winning attempt:

If you've been wearing a helmet, I think it's time you remove it and see the truth.
Your stamina goes up slower if you're holding the shield up, so keep it down when you're not blocking an attack.
When leveling up, prioritize Endurance first. You'll get some pretty big gains in your stamina bar as soon as you start leveling up that stat. It will help you attack more, roll more, and shield more.
I've noticed shielding is a lot less useful in Dark Souls 3 than Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2. The roll might seem awkward at first, but it's packed with invincibility frames. Shielding is your safe way to test out attacks and deal with crowds of weaker foes, but rolling and positioning are your best bets for fighting enemies with big powerful attacks chains that eat through your stamina while shielding. Make sure you're dodging into attacks and not away from them so that you pass through them while your invincibility frames are active.
Also, don't feel like you have to fight difficult enemies. Getting past them without aggroing them or simply running away are both valid if you don't think you can win or if you don't want to waste the Estus Flasks.
Nope. That's part of the core appeal of the series. The world is connected in many ways and it has linear and non-linear paths. You're just supposed to explore and progress. If you find something absolutely impossible to overcome for you, look for alternate routes and come back later.

I talk to NPCs facing away. I still feel bad about rocking Giant Blacksmith bro with a Zweihander R2 in DkS1. Luckily, he's all heart, and forgave me after a little donation to Oswald.
lol, first Souls game? There is no compass or maps - you have to find your way on your own. It's a big hallmark of the series. Also, when you're fighting, make sure you watch your stamina bar.
Step on the elevator and step off quickly. It will change orientation.

Does the Coiled Sword Fragment pass over to NG or should I get it to the crow for a slab?

Its really not that sensitive, in my opinion. I feel like i'm putting down the controller normally and it wont register it as a button press. Best way is to not be close to any ledges or NPCs regardless though, just to be on the safe side.

the issue is the stunlock. It's an issue with big great weapons. get hit once and they can hit you twice, take off 2/3rds of your health bar and in a duel with no healing you're done. In invasion it wouldn't bother me, no need to be honorable in that

it is bullshit.
or when they knock you down and you can't escape their follow up AOE-Attack..
and all those bosses, who get a new health-bar..
why not just one long health-bar??
