It'd be nice to know where. The place isn't that bad once you have Cast Light.

Can you explain it? That's not TOO off-putting since I'm already up to Crystal Caves, and I'm not in dire need of it (unless the boss proves impossible).

Just 3000 souls if you go to the first bell tower on top of Undead Parish.

The clams before you fight

THE BOSS IS HELL.
You know what really sucks? I killed him on my first try when helping someone else by pure luck. (Can you get cursed when helping someone in multi?)

Never got that far.
Is it beyond the gold gate?

Fuck, GAF, get a multiquote button...
It's closest to the depths entrance. Just after the 3 large dudes, you'll come to a spot where the bridges kind of Y -- go left, and you'll see it sparkling in front of you over a gap.
To answer your other question, they were complete bitches when I offed them. Granted, I started out behind the bodyguard and gave him 5 quick stabs with lightning spear +3. Main dude came over to me, and I dropped him like a sack of bricks. He was talking to me. Idiot. I replied with stabbing. Always. Less talky, more stabby.
No problem. Since I wanted all covenants in my first playthrough, I made sure to join Darkwraiths and I didn't like the way Frampt was pushing for me to do things, so I wanted to check out the other option.
Don't know about joining games, but you don't need humanity and spend -- you just need to go to undead church or sewer merchant (female undead) to buy a purging stone. Or farm them from the clams in ash lake.

It's been said, but hit the Tomb of the Giants; farm the little bastard toxic baby skeletons -- they drop it at rate (B). Or you could help people with a boss to get humanity and souls. It's how I got the 30 humanity for chaos servant while upgrading pyro flame (Quelana) to +5.Kyleripman said:

Crap...and the only bonfire is the one BEFORE the garden entrance to Crystal Caves, right?

Kyleripman said:
Yep.
Crystal Caves is extremely short, fortunately, but you have to endure one hellish trip, and a room full of nasty beasties.
Kyleripman said:
Personally, I didn't find that boss that tough, but I might have been excessively overleveled (he was the last boss I attempted before the final and I think I was at SL90). Yeah, that's the only bonfire but luckily, you can actually dash all the way there without fighting anything in under two minutes.
Also, aim for the middle tail for the weapon. Aim for the tip of that tail.

lol. thanks bro. I ended up doing it. I was too nervous in the beginning. I had only one flask left and I was afraid I wouldn't make it over in time. Just managed to drop down with about 1/3rd of my bar left. Had to stop playing, my heart was pounding. lol

Hmm okay, I like the dashing technique - although I don't like what I'm hearing about him being able to curse you, haha. Any tips on what weapons are best? My Pyromancy flame is +10 and my lightning bastard sword is +4. Otherwise the next best thing I have is Drake Sword +5.
Yep GOlem is a great soul farming boss...if you do it with one other guy plus Tarkus you get the same souls as if you did it with just one other guy.....maybe glitched, or maybe tarkus died early...I dunno but i got 45000! the next time (withinn minutes) I got 15000 only as there were two regualr phantoms plus host....souls from level plus those two runs came out to 80,000, so I bought all rings from all vendors to that point. All I have yet to buy is that damge revenge miracle...faith isnt high anyway so saved it for last....Said "no" to alvina though and my atonement level is now 98,000. All this is 15 minutes when previously my souls hadn't got over 20K.Hawkian said:

So, the days of endless heals (via hundreds of grasses) are over, eh? Damn, five or six swigs from a flask is a rough gig, man. And you can no longer heal yourself it seems when going to another player's world for co-op. I think it's safe to say they ramped up a the difficulty in a few, subtle ways.

There's 2 endings though, bad = light the fire, good = walk away & don't light the fire
SO pretty sure I killed the pyro vendor as I was not thinking he would be down in the swamp and thought the hue for the "invader" guy's armout was too normal to be invader......well he was pyro guy I think, or does he normally disappear from firelink sometime after you join the chaos covenant?
I am i screwed for pyro (I am at starting glove+8). I am low enough level (50) that I can switch to magic and swith covenants, but was going to go pyro rest of the game if there is another vendor and another pyro catylyst to upgrade etc.

Getting an all accessory trophy for this game must be hell.

no clue here either, there is not much story told in this game, it's a shame.
Urban Scholar said:
i lit the fire, so i guess i got the bad one. is there more in the good ending? don't spoil me please, i just want to know if it feels like a true ending. what about the darkwraith ending, is that a different one without a trophy?
bathala said:
Get the Server from the swamp and upgrade the shit out of it. It's slightly slower than a scimitar one handed/light attack, and about the same speed two handed with fast/slow attack.
It classifies as a greatsword, and it also returns a sliver of HP with each successful ATTACK.
I love that sword.
Johnas said:
Yep its fun to go backstab those friggin forest people using the ring...especially the Knight and thief...they had it coming! They played with my eyes - well I played with their ears...all from the back door after disp[osing of the sorcere and axe guy first. Also the Cleric...try healing after I twist my +4 lightning spear (while wearing hornet ring) up your ass buddy! CLose to 900 damage!!!!! HEHEHEHEHHE. I started trying to farm these guys before I was tough enough i guess, so the hate ran deep; and now that I am finally stocked with a few helpers after sens I am taking advantage. Wow, I heard

the last 3 taurus by the gold seal gate and the capra demons do respawn, but they can be staggered if you are wielding a heavy weapon, by the 2nd hit it will stun them and you just have to make sure to finish them off with the 3rd hit. it's not that hard but one screw up can probably kill you.
bathala said:
learn to adapt them, drakes doesn't scale until later parts of the game, unless you spent lots of dragon scales and souls in it.
a +10/+15 long sword is probably better than drakes when your str and dex reach a certain point.
greatswords has an excellent running attack, which is a horizontal/spinning slash can pretty much cover all angles (even behind you!).
ultra greatsword's running attack has less of a hit window but nothing can withstand it if it manage to connect, small enemies die, large enemies get staggered.
