Orv posted:The second door shortcut from Cathedral back to Cleansing Chapel has a second door by it, which leads to an elevator, which leads to a ladder, which leads to suffering. Sometimes I don't know how the hell I miss these things. Thanks! I look forward to glancing at a walkthrough after I finish my first run and discovering all the stuff I missed.

Orv posted:I'm not 100% but that looks like the reverse of the skyline you see of Peak from Irythll. Though the altitude absolutely doesn't make sense for that. Well, on the left side there's another structure: which I assume is Archdragon Peak from the shape of it. If you were at one, you could definitely see across to the other between the mountains; that's why I think the one on the right is Irithyll, because it's lower in altitude.

Side Effects posted:I got this really strange bug on ps4 today where my blood meter kept building instead of going down after being hit once by an enemy that caused bleed. It would even proc multiple times, starting over from zero after filling all the way. Restarting the game seems to have fixed it but for a while I was all trying to figure out what was happening. If you got hit by an enemy made of leeches, that wasn't a bug; you had leeches hanging off you! You can get rid of them instantly by whipping out a torch.

Groovelord Neato posted:this game was so good it's unfair. there's nothing else to play. gently caress video games. On the upside, this looks to have the same kind of build diversity as DS2, so we can just play it again. Thumbtacks posted:I never looked off Vordt's area, I didn't relize you can see 95% of the game from there. That's...cool. Even though the game plays very linearly compared to DS1, the "oh awesome, you can see there from here" vantage points in this game go a long way towards making it feel like you're criss crossing around a cohesive world. Moreso than DS1 even, I reckon. quote:Anyway I'm guessing Londor will be a DLC area we go to so that will probably answer some questions. I hope Kaathe is a boss so we can see what the "body" of a primordial serpent is, that kind of thing always bugs me. gently caress you Diglett. As much as I'd love to see lore-related DLC, what I really want is DLC that slots into and expands the existing world to give you more options as you move through the game. No reason they can't do both though I suppose, since Lothric is where all worlds converge after all.

I think with the extinguish the flame ending, you fire keeper says that there are other flames in the darkness. Perhaps these flames could be second, or third, or so on flames. Maybe all this poo poo happened because people were afraid to let the first flame die before they could find a second flame, when they had to let the first die to find the second in the first place. Assuming thats the case, after the age of dark will be a proper second age of light, without the curse, and hopefully people will know not to try to unnaturally extend it again Thats my hope, at least.

I think the point of that ending is you are refusing to link the fire and preserve it and instead you're letting the Fire Keeper tend to it until it dies out naturally. She does mention something along the lines of "I'm a Fire Keeper after all, I'll tend the flame to the last". So I'm also unsure of what the point is of shanking her other than being a colossal jackass.

You have to know the Darkmoon Loyalty gesture from an early step in Sirris's quest to have the option to join, as your character performs it to be admitted. You can also kill Yorshka and she'll drop the Darkmoon covenant seal, but if you do that you can't talk to or turn items in to her until the next cycle, and she's the turn-in NPC for both Darkmoon and Sentinels.

I have spent a lot of time trolling people in PvP, I made a video about my most recent antics. Please enjoy my video. It involves an area a bit of a ways into the game but also not that much. Maybe it's a little spoilery then if you haven't got at least one ~~~big bad boss soul~~~ yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEOqC6K_rp8 remember might be spoilers, I don't know how to give hints about if you're ready to watch yet without spoiling!

Questions about Anri and spoilers: I followed all of the steps on the guide here: http://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Anri+of+Astora Except I didnt' do uh, most of them until I had already killed Pontiff Sulhyvan. I killed him, then found her in the cave near the catacombs, then killed Horace, then found her at the church bonfire and talked to her. She called me heroic and gave me a ring. Apparently: "DO NOT kill the pilgrim in the corner of the room when talking to Anri at the Church of Yorshka bonfire. Doing so will void the ending." I have no idea if I did or not. I never saw it, nor do I recall it. I went through the area hours before I did the other steps then went back just for her. I went to speak to Yuria, however her dialogue has not changed. Did I gently caress this up by doing it out of order?

The Moon Monster posted:Do I have a bad level/weapon rank combination for covenant invasions? The only way I'm able to invade is with the red eye orb. I'm at 74/+10 (well, +5 boss weapon). I did the entirety of NG+ High Wall and Undead Settlement embered without getting a single invasion.

You don't need to orb invade, just have the badge on and stand around in Anor Londo. Adding on to that, Aldrich hunters have really favorable setups for the invaders. You still have to deal with a shitload of healing, but there're fewer phantoms (because the run to the boss is very, very long), and the invaders are so active that you just have to kill time to even up the stakes by pulling a fellow invader. Plus there's a shitload of environmental stuff in your favor.

That and it uses the two most hilarious spells. Noted though! My character is level capped at 30 so I can harass newbies. General question: does anyone know with confidence if and how weapon upgrades affect matchmaking? I have the issue of my bandit dagger doing rear end for crits (sharp +3) but I don't want to lose the ability to murder newbies who've barely begun their journey just so I can try to crit for more damage.

Aldrich yesterday taught me that sometimes, straight sword spam really is the way to go. I'm loving my Astora Greatsword but the moment I switched to a Longsword I think my DPS on Aldrich drat near doubled, probably because I could swing once or twice and still have enough Stamina to sprint away from arrows. Now I'm out of town for the weekend and can't play again until Sunday and I just want to go do more Darkmoon PvP and keep exploring drat it this game is good TheRam posted:I have spent a lot of time trolling people in PvP, I made a video about my most recent antics.

I've been having fun rolling with the Astora Greatsword for a while just for variety's sake, though, and it's definitely a good weapon. It owns really hard in PvP, too. Guess I'll just keep a straight sword upgraded to switch to whenever "just be faster" is a necessary strategy.
