Run through the enemies, kill S&O and kill Nito... if Nito is already dead then that's pretty awesome.
Haven't killed Nito in this NG+ yet. And why is it awesome

I really like Red Phamtom enemies![]()
Could someone try and explain Humanity and Bonfires/Kindling to me a bit? I've read the wiki but I still don't really get the purpose and I just feel like I'm missing a big part of the game cause I have not done anything with any of those.
Got the warp ability. Where do I go now since it seems a dead end with that Convent person that gave me the ability with no way forward from there? Unless I'm missing something on the ground floor?
The serpent tells you where to go and what to find. The places are around the world, after areas you have visited already.
After getting the Lordvessel your goal is to offer the 4 souls of the later game bosses to it in order to open up the final area of the game - So you can choose to do any of the areas still left to do, it's pretty much up to you at this point.Got the warp ability. Where do I go now since it seems a dead end with that Convent person that gave me the ability with no way forward from there? Unless I'm missing something on the ground floor?
So you're going for a heavy strength build?
It's definitely a viable way to play. My first character was pure melee as well. Get at least 40 in VIT, STR, and END. Those are the stats you want focus on. I'd put points into VIT last since I don't need the HP until I start doing PvP, but since this is your first time in the game you might want to invest in HP earlier. Up to you. Strength will let you use those big weapons and do more damage with them. Endurance will increase your equip burden so that you can wear heavy armor without losing mobility.
You can hit him in the ass but his armour is very tough...there are some skull items on the ledge spanning the area...throw one of those int eh fire and see what he does.I'm on the first level and keep getting killed by this pig covered in spikes...wtf do I do?
good video out there of a guy that had to beat an unlimited health glitcher...didn't even have a health bar...he fianlly got him by baiting him near a cliff.....awesome vid bit no link here at work so just search for "glitched" on youtube...it has 60k hits so will come up even by searching Dark souls pretty quick..that's how I found it in the first place. Just shows that when there s will there is a way.Does anyone have a strategy for killing invading DragonHead glitchers? Tried keeping my distance and using pyro and arrows but they are deflected. Maybe wrath of god but I would prefer something else.
Too many options to mention.....there are literally 30-40 suits of armour in the game and you can mix and match parts...Im no probabilty expert but with 4 armour options...that means a shit load of possible combos (thousands I am guessing.) Just find stuff that allows you to roll fast...if you roll and get up slow, or just fall on your back...its too heavy....rule number one for this game is stay at <25% of you overall burden which is governed by your endurance. Raise endurance so that you can wear more and more arnour and still FAST roll...the type or style is your choice becuase no matter what aermour you choose a fiully upgraded set will be close to the heaviest armour wihtou upgrades...don't feel limited by poor intiial stats..upgradiong will make it better. Kepp in mind that thera re some crazy peices like the antiquated dress and the gold hemmed set that have unreasonably high magic, poison or curse defense...trading out these pieces will greatly enhance certain aspects and make blighttown a breeze or getting cursed a non-factor.....I have never bought curse control items as I hve never been cursed since wearing the dusk crown for near all of my characters. Certain rings also help with staying light on your feet, one in partuicular helps in the swamp.Just a quick question.
What is the best light armor and the best weapon for a 50 strenght character?

I'd probably do Dukes Archives or the Painted World.
I've killed him with the fires around there before, but never thought to use the alluring skulls, never used them at all actually. Such amazing game design that they put them there to use, I wonder how many completely miss that like me!You can hit him in the ass but his armour is very tough...there are some skull items on the ledge spanning the area...throw one of those int eh fire and see what he does.

god damn i hate the fucking frogs that can curse you. why would they put this shitty enemy in the game! i thought i was through with them but then they show up in the great hollow -_-
Move backwards from them as soon as they jump. Their attack is totally telegraphed. You only have yourself to blame if they get you into those clouds to curse you.
well i was going down this giant tree and i dropped down and they had me cornered between the path and basically plummeting to my death.... i had no where to move
I haven't been there yet, but surely you can take a step or two backwards. They spew that cloud and then their AI will bumrush you to attempt to spew another cloud, that's when you take advantage of them coming through that cloud to slash forward once or twice and kill them.
There are chunks of each variety (Blue, white, red, titanite), the Cloranthy ring (faster stamina regen) can be gotten by falling not far from the bonfire at the top.
More importantly it leads to Ash Lake, an optional but cool looking area that has a boss, a miracle, a covenantanother Hydraand the final event with Siegmeyer, the dude in the onion armour. Can also be used to farm Twinkling Titanite and Purging Stones from the clam monsters if you haven't been to Crystal Cave yet. The covenant bonfire is a warp point, so you can come back without going through the Great Hollow again.a tail sword
You can run past the mushrooms they won't follow you to Ash Lake.
2BH Iam relatively certain I did not figure this out myself....A poster on gaf likley hinted that there was a reason the wierd items you find occur at certain spots...like the coloured stone thingys....found in a chest right before teh crystal caves, where there happends ot be invisible paths....b ut then once you learn their use...they are useful ohter places like in TOTG. Pretty sure I have seen a wiki outline all enemies affected by skulls...not a very extensive list...the boar and a couple others....most don't even blink at them.I've killed him with the fires around there before, but never thought to use the alluring skulls, never used them at all actually.

I will, and it is amazing that certain areas feel so much harder than others....yet when you think a place will just be impossible...it isn't bad, For example TOTH even without light is no biggy as I was able to figure out a way to psyche out all dogs and big skellies,,,they were just too stupid.....so once I conquered my fear and got the method set up...it was actually irrelevant what my stats were....running fast was the only factor at first, the later running in small bursts and inching forward at other times.@2AdEPT: Wow that sounds like an awesome experience. I have to try a SL1 run without any upgrade sometime. It must feel like playing Shadow Tower.
Please keep telling us about your progress.
Sigh...Capra demon making me want to throw my controller.
What is your PSN ID? I don't remember seeing it in this thread.I will, and it is amazing that certain areas feel so much harder than others....yet when you think a place will just be impossible...it isn't bad, For example TOTH even without light is no biggy as I was able to figure out a way to psyche out all dogs and big skellies,,,they were just too stupid.....so once I conquered my fear and got the method set up...it was actually irrelevant what my stats were....running fast was the only factor at first, the later running in small bursts and inching forward at other times.
That said, I have never solo'd O and S before and am feeling a little meek not even able to get by the giants and keep Solaire alive long enough to get in the door! I will try it out but the rules are that I can summon one friend instead of the NPC as long as they are SL1 and no upgrades....so consider yourself invited...Sullichin added me but we haven't met up yet...are you on PS3???? You and several others were the inspriation to do this in the first place!!!!!
BTW...can anyone confirm if even though the Sanctus has faith requirement of 18, that it will still give the health boost? I don't care if it blocks shit....one hit and dead with the tearstone ring set up I wan tto try anyway...but if i can get even a few more seconds of power within AND tearstone, AND dusk crown, and bellowing...the fireballs will start taking ORn down a lot faster as if it were full upgrade me thinks....just a guess?!?!?!?
other notes I forgot to include earlier:
Archers in Anor Londo! First time ....tried to draw out to the middle ramp so that the one on right would fall down.....positioned wrong and got stabbed before making it back down median walkway....second try .....just rolled as normal past first arrow on the right, hit iron flesh, then held shield up as long as it took for him to fall off...sort of pushed forward as I wasn;t afraid with iron flesh and stone armour on and it only took two hits of my shield (wooden or grass crest I think) and he fell off.....felt great as wasn't able to use poison arrows and had no fog ring then.....traded the lantern for fog ring...possible mistake as you can't grind for that drop...but might get sunlight magggot if the sanctus is still a viable option...ah who cares...can kinda do it in the dark anyway now!!!!
I'm thinking about making a magical archer for my next build. Basically a very long-range based character that using almost exclusively magic and bows.
What's the best bow if I'm not going to put much into DEX? Composite and Darkmoon I guess.
I admit the stats bonuses kind of confuse me - looking at the wiki and the stats bonuses give a letter grade, but how does that translate into actually power - since magical weapons kind of suck in this game, is it worth making a magic weapon if it gives a A or S buff from magic, or is it still better to go with say, +14, lightning or chaos because these often give the highest base damage before stat bonuses? How many lvl points do you have to plow into INT before you start seeing the benefits from a A or S grade stat boost. My head hurts!
Only if the host gives you the dagger, the drop goes to the host not phantoms, and they would have to do it before killing her since you leave their world as soon as a boss is defeated. Basically you're screwed unless someone gives you oneOk, question time:
I accidentally killed Priscilla while trying to cut off her tail (she went invis and I lobbed a fireball at her to reappear and she died). Can I fight her as co-op summon help and get the tail there? Obviously I'd have to hope the host doesn't kill her first.
Honestly have no idea, I was just thinking of putting everything into VIT/END/INT, but I guess DEX helps with both bows and casting speed - I didn't think.Why wouldn't you want dex with a magic build? Cast speed helps. Bows are awful for damage.
So...any suggestions on killing this gargoyle with an axe on his tail above the Undead Parish?
...what? Summon who?Summon the NPCs. While they aggro him, cut his tail off. Simple.
...what? Summon who?
I'm sorry ive only been playing this game for a couple hours. I'm on a PS3 how do I summon NPCs? Sorry for this probably terrible question.

No, you have select the "Reverse Hollow" option at a Bonfire to revert back to human. This allows you to see and summon other players and NPC's; Lautrec in your case for the Bell Gargoyle fight. This also means that you're vulnerable to getting invaded by another player and NPC's in certain areas.Wait so if I have a 01 or higher next to my HP bar then I'm human and can summon help?

If you already got the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring (which is found inside a mimic box in Sen's Fortress; increase the item drop rate), then you can farm in either one of two places. The rats typically drop humanity. The Depths (near a Bonfire) has a nice amount of rats that you can kill over and over again, and the aforementioned baby skeletons much later on in the game in the Tomb of the Giants.No. You have to go to a bonfire and use that humanity point to reverse hollow. You can tell you're human if you don't look like a zombie
Beaten.
I've relatively new to the game as well. Is there any way to farm humanity? I'm always dying and losing my points lol
