Just got to Black Gulch, did From think that breaking 50 statues is fun? I like fighting monsters.

Keep to the ledge on the right side, and past the two worms there should be a small ledge leading to the bonfire. edit: invading is pretty fun, and guard breaking was pretty useful against a guy with Havel's Shield. Invaded 4 times but lost twice. I forgot about Targray giving out Blue Eye Orbs so I'll need to kill Old Dragonslayer after the Skeleton Lords. VVVV: As soon as you enter the Black Gulch look to your left. neetengie fucked around with this message at 06:39 on May 1, 2014 |

Is there a way to make white soapstone signs appear? I need help with a boss and I haven't seen any since before the first.

For all the problems with PvP, at least they didn't decide to bring back the scraping spear.Ariong posted:Is there a way to make white soapstone signs appear? I need help with a boss and I haven't seen any since before the first. As long as your not offline you should be seeing plenty of signs for the first few areas. Where exactly are you? EDIT: Oh and yeah you have to be fully human to see them.

If you burn an effigy you block both invaders and summons in an area for a drat long time, you also can't use the white soapstone. Since invasions never, ever happen since From thought it was a good idea to get rid of a proper invasion orb, NEVER burn a human effigy anywhere.

Hmm, I'm starting to think about what str weapon I want to upgrade- I've been liking the great club's moveset, but I heard people complain that it got way too fragile when upgrading- should I be holding out for something better?

Upgrade the Large Club and Great Club, it's all fine, the damage is worth it even if it degrades quickly. Whenever one of your primary weapons is going down too low, just use a small white soapstone and use your secondary to help someone out. Even upgrading the basic club or mace is fine.

Ok, someone tell me that when the Smelter Demon does that sword thrust attack and you get knocked right into and stuck on the geometry of the arena, that's a bug and not complete bullshit? Otherwise that fight is tough but I guess fair. I just suck at dodge timings cause of his windups. Wish I knew if it was possible for me to stop him switching phases. I swear I staggered him once and he only turned his sword on fire with 1/5 health left. Or it could just be a timer, right?

I wish there was an orb so that I didn't have to spend 5 minutes waiting for a duel in the brotherhood of blood covenant area to get just one cracked orb. Then I do invade somebody and for whatever reason everybody in the world just walks around with two phantoms summoned at all times.

Met my first hackers today. Tried do do some Sentinel invading, and after spamming the orb for 5 minutes, got a hacker in full Havels that didn't lose any life no matter how many times I backstabbed him(The damage numbers showed up). Tried again, and got a guy that weapon swings didn't even show damage numbers for(The weapon hit, and I saw him stagger multiple times, but no damage).

It's a bug. There are certain bosses that causes really hilarious rear end collisions that will send you flying. That unfortunately is one of them.

I have 30 attunement, a southern ritual band, and the black witch hat. My character has more spell slots than I know what to do with now. Sober posted:Ok, someone tell me that when the Smelter Demon does that sword thrust attack and you get knocked right into and stuck on the geometry of the arena, that's a bug and not complete bullshit? Yeah that's definitely a bug and as far as I know you can't do anything about it other than not get hit in the first place.

I killed a really big spider and got a really big sword soon after! I think I'd like a little more direction than "kill everything", but this works I guess?

Bobnumerotres posted:This is the worst of it, really. Not only did they give poison a super buff but you don't have access to good amounts of antidote until AFTER the poison sections are over. Poison resist doesn't do jack loving poo poo, either. You can buy it from that one dude in the Wharf, I think thats before I ever saw any poison. Except maybe those dark creatures had poison? At least before I ever saw much poison. My main complaint is that there are lots of sections where you can just run through to get to where you want, the area before Chariot was giving me a hard time, until I learned you can just run past those guys, jump on one of the ledges and they all fall off the bridge and die. This sort of works for a lot of frustrating sections of the game and then you can just summon a dude with that spell that shoots lightning bolts and cheese whatever boss pretty quick.

Got through earthen peak, not too fond of the place. A lot of messages about torches pointed me in the right direction thank god. Is there anything amazing hidden in that zone? I hope not since it's an annoying place and I'd rather move on. E: it's also bullshit that my bow can't break pots  . It's a good thing I always carry a ton of explosives with me.

The nerfs to poise and removal of invincibility frames when opening doors and such was to punish just dashing through everything. While it's harder than DkS/DeS you can still skip like loving everything. The enemies are dumb as hell. Just look at that speedrun where a dude beat the game in under 2 hours, only things he fights are the bosses.

A pretty good headpiece that give + 3 intelligence from the mages. Claws from the Mannequin enemies, and a decent spear and shield from the Grave Wardens.
