I keep trying to rush it an end up getting shot into lava because of those loving archers. It's really not hard. Are you just fighting in the open or something? Fight behind the pillars instead of in the middle of the bridge or whatever you're doing. You only even have to get to one archer, the rest can be completely ignored!

Take your time, theres only one stage where you have to fight two guys at once and even then you can usually kill the first one with a backstab

Is there some sort of tool for making this game look even more pretty? I have seen a bunch of screenshots of peoples games that looks amazing, and mine looks nothing like that.

Everybody I try to help dies before me too, so hopefully its just not me sucking. You can skip the smelter demon it seems, not that it did me any good in the rest of this godforsaken place.

I want to see what you guys are doing to die on the way to the Smelter Demon, it's a short walk and every enemy but one can be stunlocked into oblivion. There's only one archer that can attack you along the way, and you can hide from it easily.

Bellbroing and killing fellow bellbros is so much fun. At first I was a little put off at how easily you can be ganged up on, but once you realize that most bell keepers are poo poo and falter to the least amount of aggression, it becomes doable. Also fun to put white signs out in front of the belfry doors to have 2v2 matches and put the shoe on the other foot.  Does anyone here follow a "code of honor" when it comes to PVP? For bellbros, if the host is already engaged against another bell keeper phantom or the NPCs, I sit and watch until they die or succeed and are ready to fight me. For red invaders/gray summons/being invaded in bell, all bets are off -- I'll kill the bastards in any way I can. Not above dogpiling at all in those cases. One other thing -- I prepurchased Dark Souls II and thus have access to the DLC bonuses, so how do I access the out-of-game stuff like the OST and comic? Was that for physical copies only or am I missing something?

I invaded someone who immediately got a blue sentinel then someone who already had two phantoms summoned. For how annoying it is, they made red stones really difficult to come by.

So I'd like to use my xbox 360 controller for this, but honestly I'm a little confused. I have a wireless controller (which does have the usb connection to the xbox to connect/charge), but is that all I have to do? The guide on the xbox page says I need a wireless adapter as well. Anyone have any luck using the controller?

There should be a Digital Extras or something folder with the files inside.

My problem isn't on the way to the smelter demon, my problem is the smelter demon himself (and the turtle guys if I try and skip him). Also it seems like everybody I summon cant even handle getting to the smelter demon, let alone taking him on. And I'm a pure melee character, I got all my best fire def stuff on, I've learned his moves so I don't get hit with the worst stuff, and I hack away at this guy and it does nothing. Am I missing something here?

I spent a lot of time on google trying to figure out how to make it work and I'm pretty sure it's just not meant to be. I ended up buying a wired one during the winter so I didn't have to put up with batteries and poo poo like that. The wired one is plug and play, super convenient.

There's only one archer that can attack you along the way, and you can hide from it easily. In what world is it a short walk? It takes over a minute even if you get past every enemy. Also while fighting the 3 knights guarding the bridge, at least 3 archers have a shot on me no matter where I stand. I can deal with them, it just takes awhile and is annoying when I die in 10 seconds to the smelter demon because my health bar is small and I'm losing my patience.

My bushido spirit won't let me do it any other way. ^^^: Patience is your best tool in Dark Souls, I find. I've died so many times across both games because I either lose my cool or try to get that extra attack in that usually ends up with me getting stomped into the floor.

Just take your time and explore, no need to rush things, take the mobs 1 by 1, the archers are easy to dodge if you fight with pillars in between you and them. Make sure you hit the switches to lower both sides of the bridge. You can do it buddy!

So what's the deal with No Man's Wharf? I got to what I presume is the end, but there was just an empty dock and the ship that should be there is still way off by the entrance to the cove. I already have access to the Old Bastille, but I was trying to go the other way and there's just...nothing there.

I can deal with them, it just takes awhile and is annoying when I die in 10 seconds to the smelter demon because my health bar is small and I'm losing my patience. If you killed every enemy along the way to the point they didn't spawn anymore it'd take like 30 seconds to get to the fog door. Unless you decide to detour through the ballista room or stand around and take in the scenery. Starting from the bonfire you go across the bridge, up the stairs, over the bridge to the right, turn left and you're at the door. There are two enemies outside of the keep, two in the room with the flamethrower, three in the room up the stairs. Outside you have two enemies straight forward and one on the bridge to the right. There's an archer to the right just as you enter the area. If you don't walk on the bridge that enemy won't attack you, the other two will aggro at the same time (one is further back and you have time to take care of the first one and the guy on the bridge before he even reaches you). There's a pillar right next to the bridge and it will block all of the archer's shots. Don't run past the bridge because that will set other enemies off and there's no point in going over there in the first place. You can take care of the enemy by the fog door easily because it's by itself and nothing else can hit you where it is. There, I played the game for you. fake edit: and seriously, just kill them until they stop spawning or something if it's this bad for you.

There's a bell you have to ring at the highest point of the wharf that calls the ship over. Either climb all the way back up or shoot the bell with an arrow.
