And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

I am both excited and scared to hit the new content. Right now I'm taking my time and helping people beat bosses as I work my way through.
The hardest thing in that fight are the 2 wolves in the room; after you kill them, Capra is quite easy.

if you are forcing fullscreen through DSFix, I don't think that feature has been fully implemented yet.
Hahhhahaa! THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^
Thought i was the only one who DETESTS the normal and elite sets....if I were going knight, which is rare, it would be
eastern (shivas right?) black, silver, black iron, orns, even Solaire
Kirk?
Will upload a screen shot when/if I finally get it...although for this new content run I thought I would do a Skywalker dex/faith build instead:
thief hood (the brown one)
Logans set
uchigantana/washing pole/bss +15
darkmoon blade
emit force
lightning spears

uchigantana/washing pole/bss +15
darkmoon blade

its taking me a long time to get whre I want to be to get the new content rolling!!!!!! won't go higher than level 30 to start. but obviously it will be hard to keep stats low if I want to use all the miracles...and they will be bare bones intensity at that....but I want lots of equipment in case its just the right piece for a certain enemy! I want to come decked out, not run back out with my tail between my legs searching for stuff.
Yeah
found one that is impossible, there's like 4 skeletons and 1 black knight looking after himEdit: Got his ass too, man this game is amazing

how did you get him to land?
It's a bit roundabout:
You need to get the key to his chamber (if you headed opposite from the MP arena area and at the end of the path saw the locked door, that'd be it), which is in the larger, multi-level building just before you headed down to the Abyss. Gotta roll/jump to a platform as I recall, maybe someone will make a video of it if they haven't already, but basically just poke around in there at any place you reasonably may not have explored. Be careful though, the chest with the key is a mimic. Anyways, you go back and talk to the guy in the chamber twice, and you'll be able to take the dragon on afterwards.
This is operating under the assumption you have beaten
Artorias (do I need to spoil this?
They're already off
also reminder to make sure to get rid of afterburner fraps etc.
its poor for sure...but it works....I have got the odd PVP and I'm sticking at level 17 for now...including
capra, depths, queelag and sens

To those of you who are further along, are you having trouble finding people to summon or be summoned by? I'm at O&S hoping to do a few boss runs for souls and humanity but it's taking forever to get summoned. The one time I did, I did something dumb and got myself killed before the boss room. I guess it's a good thing that I have a tablet on hand...
No one has been summoning. I'm right at the bonfire before the Sen's Fortress boss.
EDIT: Now right outside the boss if anyone is interested.
What plans?

I just lost my first batch of souls and humanity. 85,000 souls and 10 humanity because I rolled off the wooden lift in Blighttown wrong and fell to my death. I know in the scheme of things, it's not too big of a deal but I had plans for those souls.

I found it a little slow there late last night but not too bad. All of the summoning in Sens happens in front of the boss door rather than the bonfire btw.
Edit: ^ the lift strikes again! I lost like 40k to it yesterday.
You can summon Sif for easy mode, though I don't know how that works if you've killed him already (if you haven't, there's a cool new scene before his fight ;_.
.Does it search on after failing or do i have to start the search again after a fail message?

Why do you have to be a computer fucking genius to get DS3 to work on Windows 7?
I'm following some shitty guide. And it recognizes every button-press when I go to the calibrate-screen, but as soon as I start a game up, it can't recognize shit.
Wtf am I doing wrong?

Are you using motionjoy?

Holy shit. Blight Town is actually fun now. I couldn't ever see what the fuck was going on before and it was a miserable choppy dark mess before. Now it's totally clear and I made it to the bondfire on my first try. Hell, I didn't even know there WAS a bondfire in the middle before as it was too dark and choppy and blurry to see anything before.
DS3? As in a Dualshock 3? You're using MotionInJoy right?
I start up the application with the DS3 connected via USB, have it set on "Xbox 360 Controller Emulator", I press "Enable" once and check if it's actually registering as a 360 controller by clicking Game Controller Panel.
When it does, it should say "Controller (Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows)" and not "Motioninjoy Virtual Controller" and from there it just plays everything.
You can summon Sif for easy mode, though I don't know how that works if you've killed him already (if you haven't, there's a cool new scene before his fight ;_
wow, i didnt know you can summon sif, this is another little gem in this game

Woooooooow, and I spent at least two hours downloading/researching/unplugging tons of drivers and other shit to get it to work... turns out, all I needed to do was set it on Xbox 360 controller emulator ._. Thanks a lot man. Works flawlessly...
One last question:
Now, how do I play with the resolution mod AND turn on fullscreen? Anyone know?

killed the dragon all he drops is a ring that increases the damage you take
In the game, select your monitor's native resolution and turn on fullscreen
My heart is pounding. Just had an epic 15 minute battle with Gaping and somehow survived with a twink of health and zero flasks. I thought I was going to lose for sure after he decided to be crazy and ignore a few my rolls. Phew, that was nuts.
Now I don't know what I want to do. Go use this key I used... or go back and try to fight the troublesome twins.

that place is for later in the game, you have to go upstairs on the left side on the rock structure

In what way was it broken? Or do you mean make it worthwhile?
There's a message in Oolacile township that says something like "Let there be light", just use a skull lantern or the light spell in that spot and a hidden room witha chest inside appears.

After the first
female magician
lol i'm so mad now. i finally killed the big tall knight inside the church and got something called a firesoul. it says it will increase the amount of flasks i have, so i tried using it, and instead i just got more humanity.
then i go all the way up the church and
i don't know what to do.
then i go all the way up the church and
boss battle. there's 3 bell guardians, but i only manage to awaken two of them. i always get killed when the second one awakens. i've been upgrading my wanderer armor set just for the fire resistance but it's not helping.
Oh wow you made a huge mistake, can't get better flasks now. Only use those at the firekeepers, there is one at Firelink shrine under the bonfire.
As for your boss battle
My strategy was to hold up you shield and work the tail until you lop it off. Time it up right so he is above 50% health, before the second one comes out.
Once the tail is off, apply pine resin since he is weak to lightning, finish off the first one.
The second one will launch fire at you, but its really easy to see when he does this, he just rears up his head and breaths in some fire, then shoots it at you in a straight line.
Dodge to the side, get behind him, and repeat.

This is my first time in the game too, having a ton of fun, but there is a lot to learn. The combat really started clicking for me after the gargoyle fight and thats when I started to really have fun by the way.

If you look closely, you'll see snowflakes falling onto the paths. Besides, there are only two you need to follow and they go straight across the gaps to the other side.
There is another path that is quite crazy, but you don't need to go there unless you're making a magic weapon.
Great idea, now I need to figure out where to buy them.
Oh I think that was the path I just died, lol
there is a chest under the stairs you lowered to get to the little garden before the crystal caves with some in it
Also the vendor in the little sewer part above of firelink shrine sell em.

I just invaded someone in Undead Parish. Well I invaded 3, but the first 2 times, I failed horribly.
PVP is so cool in this game.

Apparently the mod might be using your onboard video. Check to see your video card activity during gameplay. If it's <5%, you might have to disable your onboard video in your bios.
