Nah, don't go down until much later. Go upward (stairs alongside the cliff behind the firelink shrine) to Undead Burg and finished those areas first. Also, one of the best starting gifts is twin humanity since you can buff up that first bonfire in undead burg early.

Kirk dude is in the demon area when you're about 1/2 way to the 2nd boss.

So what's the best non-glitchy way to take out the red dragon on the bridge?

The way the servers are right now sucks.
Let's say there are 20 lobbys you can join. You join lobby 1. There could be people your SL putting a sign down in lobbies 2-20 but you don't see it b/c you're in lobby 1. It's stupid.
edit: From should steal the idea from Square in FFXI. You can party w/ lower level people and your gear/stats scale down. This would be an amazing addition to help people out, b/c @ SL 95 or so or w/e, I'd love to be able to help without rerolling a character.

haha, figures.
Maybe I didn't beat the first "boss" then, because I'm not sure of the area you're describing
I beat the
Asylum Demon
transported to Firelink Shrine by like a bird or something --- a creature of some sort --- and then plopped down there

Try waiting a short amount of time (1-2 minutes) and then exiting the game and re-entering. The general consensus is that this resets your lobby and you may land somewhere where people are putting their sign down. Also remember that you can only summon those +/- 10% of your current SL so if you are really under or over-leveled that may also be causing the problem. Don't lose hope!

This specifically relates to how certain common enemies drop humanity items upon being killed. The information is shown in the guide as a table (Method | Quantity) with what I wrote being a single row entry.
Point being there are a whole bunch of ways to gain humanity, but this method is the only one with the 10 drop limit is specified.

I beat Anor Londo and killed Ceaseless Discharge. Is there a reason to go to Catacombs or New Londo first, or should I just choose one?
Also I would like to note about the Daughter of Chaos covenant:
Also I would like to note about the Daughter of Chaos covenant:
I was wondering why I couldn't warp to a good bonfire in Blighttown or Demon's Ruins...Now I know. If I kill her, do I no longer get to warp to that bonfire?

semi Glitchy way, and it's not fool proof. you have to pray his downward flame attack doesn't killl you in one hit and he doesn't use it often.
start by standing on the side where the flames can't hit you, shoot an arrow at him, immediately run towards his landing spot, hit him once and swiftly retreat back downstairs. He will fly back if he can't find you, rinse and repeat.
sometimes if you are unlucky, upon landing he will do the downward flame attack and almost always kill anyone below it.
it's impossible to fight him on the bridge for long. His other attacks are also cheap because all of them will knock you down.

Sorry, I consider the first boss of the actual game, not the tutorial area.
Keep exploring the Burg, you'll find him eventually, it's through a fog door near the top of a tower. Protip: when you leave, look to your right, climb the ladder and kill the 2 skeles up there before going across the bridge to spawn the boss. Another tip to make the fight easier, use @ your own discretion:
Climb up the ladder in the fight, and when he gets close jump down and stab his head for lots of dmg 
well, who cares. enough with this shit.
REALLY, what the hell.
i played 3-4 hours for a shit of nothing. i tried to summon someone at the first bonfire in the tomb of giants, ok, wait wait wait OH i found one, but hey, he went away with the stone, the fuck man? Why did you put a sign if you don't want to play. after one minute someone invaded my world, mmmh... coincidence?
I was with 11 humanity and 7 rings of sacrifice, now i have 5 humanity and 4 rings of sacrifice.
did i beat the boss? Of course not.
the game is hard as hell, online works like shit and bugs are awful.
now when i try to summon someone i get invaded but i can quit the game before it's too late.
should i move to the second bonfire? Is it a better place to summon? In the first one i can summon one every 20 minutes.

I was asking about this a few posts above...
I didn't kill him but I aggravated him and the sin cost me 118000s. Is it worth it or just leave fire weapons for NG+?
My sorc is at Lvl22 and ready to face the Capra Demon.
Vit 10
End 10,
Int 26 ish.
Equipment is Rapier + 2, Heater Shield, Wolf Ring, Elite Knight helm, rest leather armor. The bandits and the dogs getting here gave me some troubles, first time I felt my sorc wobble as a character, they were just very fast for a caster.
How bad is this going to be?

Kirk shows up 3 times as an invading phantom if you manage to kill him each time then you get his bad ace armor that hurts people with rolling power.
Also I know how nice it is to use Havel's ring or a hp extender or the many other utility type rings, but imo there are really only 2 rings to wear most of the time. They both look like snakes and one is gold, the other silver.
I am looking forward to making a new uber weapon when my strength gets up there, right now I have been quite happy with Quelaag's Furysword +5. I like to 2 hand it and get all up in there. Sometimes it does not pay to lock on to your targets, sometimes it does.
-- Oh and about summoning. I was getting nothing but 100% failed summons before the Centipede boss and I just quit the game and relogged on. Summoned 2 spirits right after that no prob.

gold = increase drop rate from 100 to 300, silver = 20% more souls

Take the speed of the undead assassin's, and multiply their size by five, in a room only slightly wider than the hallway leading up to Capra, and you'll have a pretty good idea.Dorrin said:

Kidding. Difficulty on Capra really depends on how good you are and a bit of luck with the lock on and dogs. I think you may have trouble though.

Yeah, that's how I killed him.
I jumped off the fog door at the top and took away half his damage
I think we're getting all tied up here. after you leave the Asylum, the tutorial level/first level (after you've killed the

I'm assuming that's the wrong way? Or at least the wrong place to go first...

Any tips? Should I grind a bit and level up some weapons?

bad gameplay lol
So at SL70, what would be the best boss for me to help people out with? I figure I'm too high leveled to get summoned for fair amount of the bosses at this point, unless I get summoned for NG+, and I'd rather not run into that bug that sets your difficulty at NG+ even if you aren't there yet.

Gonna deal with teh Fire cave boss when I get back home. Not the cesless crap, the one under. Had a quick run on him with no prep and I nearly beat it. Doesn't seem too difficult.
Damn I'm screwed. I haven't had too much trouble so far at any one spot, though Blight Town waylaid me for a bit, as did Sens. I never took much time to level up, but I'm worried I'm going to run into a wall if I don't grind.demosthenes said:
That brings up another question: are there really no shortcuts through Sen's Fortress? I don't really want to go through it again.prodystopian said:
