Wait, there's a bell somewhere in the Depths? I killed Gaping Dragon, and I thought that was it, since I think I explored everything there is to explore there (only thing I didn't manage to get is that shiny loot on the other side of the room where you jump down to fight that giant rat).

Oh well, if there is one, I'll gladly go and explore it some more (don't tell me where it is exactly
Oooh, I did find him, but I either totally overlooked the door near him, or I totally forgot about it being there. Thanks! Gonna go back there after I kill Sif (I'm already sad, since I love wolves, and he looks amazingly graceful and beautiful, and that music...)
It's the best spear in terms of range so I would upgrade it and a silver knight spear for lighting resistant enemies. Yes your crystal halberd will break eventually.
Demon greataxes are great crystal weapons and you can get a lot of then as Shiva sells them for 10k.
Yeah, I read them from time to time. Gotta remember to look at their descriptions as soon as I get them
You could go to dukes, demon ruins, and the tomb of the giants. The curse thing is so you can damage the ghosts but you can buy transient curses or used cursed weapons to do that also without the need to be cursed.
Yeah, I remembered that people were mentioning couple of years ago that you can avoid killing him, but I had no idea how and why. But, since I'm playing DS on PS3 for now, and since I don't have DLC, I guess I'm not missing out on something. Gonna spare him on my next playthrough on PC tho, can't wait to find out what happens then!
Your first Souls game is always the hardest, so you would probably find Demon's a little easier since you have a grasp on the basics and the set up of the series.
Bonfire on the bridge or the other one?
Probably the bridge as the bottom one is pretty open I think.
The dlc can be started any point between accessing the dukes archives and killing Gwyn.
There's a path behind the ladder you took to get to the bonfire to explore.
I've used mugenmonkey and it seems accurate. What's your Str and Dex?
Wikidot is generally the most accurate site it is saying that a level 4 black knight greatsword is 308 damage so that other wiki would be wrong even though I can't find the exact one you used for that figure myself.
Confused the 8 for a 6.
The regular Black Knight Sword is in the greatsword class. Are you sure you don't have that one?33/19
That's the wiki I used
The stats of my BKGS+4 is 287, but according to the wiki it should be 308
That doesn't reach the required damage as previously stated.
Using your stats I got what you said earlier, so I'm stumped as to why it doesn't match up to what you are getting unless you got that figure from an enemy which has resistance to that damage type.33/19

No clue on this one. You are VERY to have both weapons on the first playthrough. BKS is the better sword IMO. It's faster and only slight less damage. It's also really cool looking FASHION SOULS
Greatswords deal less poise damage that Ultra's do it's really down to personal preference plus all black knight weapons are available in the latter part of the game.
R2s are almost useless on those two swords. They're not good weapons to go through the game because they limit you to R1 spam or backstabs. They're terrible for PVP imo. The running and jumping attacks are decent though.
I've found both R2 attacks single handed and two handed to be useful myself during PvE and the small amount of time I dabbled them within PvP.
They're useful in PVE but that's it. With the BKS, after the attack the character does that sword twirl animation that leaves you wide open. With 2 hand, it's the same with incredibly slow animation. The BKGS is just like moving in molasses. That 2 hand R2 telegraphs so easily. The only great about those weapons is that you can max them easy. The other BK weapons are much better imo, especially the great axe.
Yeah, you can't really go by what damage you're doing to an enemy based on their HP bar because of their armor etc. Mugenmonkey is referring to your "raw" damage output on the start menu.
Resistance would explain the differances between damage as for the dragon king great axe you need 1 more point in strength to two hand it.
Get a Black Knight Halberd and two-hand it.
