... the creep is spreading!

I hope it doesn't lose all its steam with skyrim coming soon..

 

[vilmer_]

Thanks. Very pertinent tip.

It looks like it's confirmed!

I can confirm that this works wonders.

Stumbled up on this method last night. I dropped my summon sign right inside Blight Town from Valley of Drakes tunnel. My friend ran back and forth a few times, switching which zone he was in. After a few back and forths, my sign appeared for him.

 

[Wallachia]

It looks like it's confirmed!

Sweet, and ofcourse, it means that each time you leave and re-enter, you have to lay your sign down again, right?

HAHAHAHAHA

I've been helping people do

Spoiler

Anor Londo

in co-op for three hours now just so I get invaders to try it on. The hardest part is convincing the host to go hide somewhere while I set the trap. Once they're out of sight and I'm the deadliest vase in the joint they go down no prob.

I've even gotten two Fog Ringers with this trick. It's wonderful. It's making me wish I hadn't killed the boss in my own game so I could bait invaders solo.

 

[Zzoram]

For the covenants, if you break them, do you lose all rank if you pay your Attunement and rejoin? Or does it save your rank?

 

[Urban Scholar]

Ok O & S fight seems very doable. After a successful run of taking out S first and activating Big O, it's all about running defense. Someone has to keep O occupied while S falls. Plus having fury sword helps greatly. Going to try my run now.

It looks like when that guy did it, he just left his sign there until his friend got in the right server and it appeared for him.

 

[corrosivefrost]

So when I start NG+ what do I get to keep from my last play through?

All items, magic, weapons, armor. Your soul level. I think you keep your current souls.
All bonfires stay kindled to whatever level they were at previously.

I think that's it. You probably lose the rite of kindling and the lordvessel. Not sure if you lose the abyss ring.

[Grinchy]

Anyone using the painting guardian sword? It has an A for DEX, and you can do backflips with it so it's already awesome to me. I just don't know if it's worth upgrading and using it for real since it doesn't have a critical bonus.

What are the stats to use that sword?

 

[TylerD]

I think I prefered the bad FPS of Blighttown to the gang rape of ghost bitches in Lando. Went there cursed first and when I got attacked by 5 or 6 at once after the first white light door and died in about a second... FTS. Blighttown wasn't as bad or as hard as I thought it would be.

Praise the sun for my master key and shortcut

 

[WheelHoss1]

Feeling a bit letdown after the splendor of Anor Lando. Been helping people beat it because what's next doesn't seem as fun. Might take a bit of break.

So I'm ready to leave for Anor Londo. I'm level 50 and I'm lugging around 170k souls at this point. I'm wondering what level is normal for entering Anor?

 

[Darkone]

Do you plan to get any other weapon with lightning (a katana or something)? If not, go for it.

Dont think i will use another lightning base weapon, i am looking for a better weapon, any suggestions?

Ha, i had it as Londo first and changed it when i saw the next post. Nicely done though.

 

[Kurod]

I ordered it from Amazon a few days ago, but they're still out of stock . I checked a few physical retail locations near my house, but no one had it.

I ordered from amazon about a week ago and just got an email...informing me that my shipping date is now November 2nd.

 

[GhostRidah]

Is the Toxic Mist spell worth it guys?

 

[Augemitbutter]

whattt sakuraba composed the last boss theme? damn, no wonder it sounded familiar

he composed all of the soundtrack.

 

[RoboGeorgeForeman]

Just beat Capra Demon and Gaping Dragon after three tries each with my new wanderer character. For some reason it's been easier for me to figure out their patterns now that I'm up close and personal, than when I was ranging it with my pyromage.

I'm thinking of dropping some summon signs, since I never really got much of the multi-player experience my first time around.

You are 6 levels higher than me and I had no problem. Depends on your gear, though. Gear matters farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr more than level.

I'm 47 and I got there yesterday, I could have leveled more but I spent souls buying large titanites to upgrade my Iaito, so, you're good.

 

[Spy]

You're all making me feel overleveled. I was SL62 when I first visited Anor Lando.

Dark Souls |OT4| ITS SPELLED LONDO! WITH AN O!

Did you grind Souls at all? I'm not grinding, spend souls on stupid upgrades, rarely recover my bloodstain when I die and I think I'm prettay Gouuudd.

Also I've seen many people saying they are grinding the darkroot NPC's like there's no tomorrow, talk about gamebreaking bugs, lol.

 

[Septimius]

Cool. I guess I'll just buy all these armor sets. Don't want to be too high level. Where does one get the painting guardian sword? I'm guessing the painting world?

 

[The_Monk]

Ok I'm cursed... How bad is it? I think I need a break from this game...

are you falling in the holes on the depts? there's a route to get to the bonfire fighting just 1 frog, but I recomend going there later and taking them out 1 by 1 cause there's a sweet ring there.

Interested?

I'm 99% sure that you can get one as a rare drop off of the Painting Guardians. Just wear the Covetous Serpents Ring and you'll get one eventually.

 

[Wallachia]

I'm not certain, so is it possible to get the Lion boss guy's armor?

The only break you get is the breaking of your spine when you're crushed. Push on!

Here's the thing I decided to follow someone (some phantom I summoned)

He helped me get a lot of stuff but then, yes I fell to an hole and the frame rate (for the very first time) + frogs gave me the Curse, aaargh.

And 10 min before all that I had the

When I was leaving the painted world I had the ring on, and swear I got about 6 of those swords while clearing my way out of there.

 

[Version 3.0]

I think I might've been 70 or 71. I did the Catacombs before that, though, which I think is maybe backwards from other people.

 

[Urban Scholar]

I like to report success on co-oping the O & S fight just now. We defeated Big O, or should I say I dealt the fiery final blow. Muhahaha

 

[Dr. Acid Avatar]

ARGH! I need 3 more Souvenirs of Reprisal and my only options are to use the Blue Eye Orb/ Darkmoon Ring to pvp against guilty players OR farm harpies until my fucking eyes bleed.

I use the +item discovery ring but it doesn't help much. Also last night I had a harpie fly over me and fall to it's death, I looked down and saw it had loot on it's corpse. FUCK!

Don't get me started about the PVP, I'll just say there are times when I actually want to throw my controller into the wall. I've never experienced such rage or frustration. I would choose farming Pure Bladestone any fucking day of the week over this.


Fuck. Souvenirs. Of. Reprisal.

did you get to the bonfire? if yes you can kill the gaping dragon without getting hit, it's a pretty easy boss and you can summon help too, so it doesn't matter if you're coursed.

The path from the bonfire to the Gaping Bastard is like 2 minutes and the only resistance you'll find is a rat, go on, you can do it!

 

[RoboGeorgeForeman]

When I was leaving the painted world I had the ring on, and swear I got about 6 of those swords while clearing my way out of there.

Maybe I just have bad luck then, cause I only got one during my last play through, and I've killed at least 100 (during my trips to and from the Painted World). I did get close to 100 throwing knives though...

 

[rogerroger22]

I think I might've been 70 or 71. I did the Catacombs before that, though, which I think is maybe backwards from other people.

Why do people leave the Catacombs for so late? I did it before Sens - didn't find the level to be that hard, and getting access to the smith that does +fire was nice - made doing Sens much easier.

Main thing is having the balls to run past skeletons to the necromancer to take him out so they stop re-spawning. It's pretty much impossible to 'fight' your way to him because they re-spawn so fast. The boss in that level is a joke also.

 

[sixghost]

You're all making me feel overleveled. I was SL62 when I first visited Anor Lando.

I don't think you can really be overleveled in this game, unless you are 30-40 SLs higher than most people. Gear, upgrades, and spells are how you really strengthen your character.
