So I'm not at all convinced that the permanently instant "Unable to Summon Phantom" messages are just because someone else already summoned that player. I've been sitting here at for 20min hitting signs the instant they pop up and haven't had a single hit. Any connectivity tips or things to help with this? Router settings or something? It's super suspect to me.

Manatee Cannon posted:I think priscilla is probably alive because some item descriptions imply that aldrich dreamed of her but didn't find her, tho I can see why people think she's dead. maybe the dlc will go into the nito connection, but otherwise anything could be right because the game never mentions it at all Had something weird happen when I got booted mid-game and switched to offline ( So much for solving that title-screen booting last patch ) it actually fixed my NPC quests somewhat, or bugged them out worse, hard to tell. I've already killed waaayyy~ too many bosses to catch up on their storylines, but it kicked them all into the next steps that hadn't triggered because the game didn't feel like it. On the topic of crummy triggers, I got confused as poo poo when I couldn't get into the Archives. Turns out you have to kill the other Lords before the NPC corpse with the key spawns.

Regarding Aldrich eating Nito, it's entirely possible, but whatever he consumed was likely inconsequential. By the time the Chosen Undead found Nito, he was basically a nonfactor in the world. He had given most of his Lord's Soul power to cement death as a natural thing for humanity, and then the Pinwheels went and stole a bunch of whatever was left. Then the Chosen Undead takes the greatly diminished Lord Soul to link the fire. If he did eat Nito, Aldrich was probably embarrassed by it after the fact because he just ate a bunch of skeletons and feathers with no substance to them. The Lord Souls are ineffable, but they aren't inexhaustible. Nito's essence remained in the world to coalesce once again into the Rotten, but the Rotten was just a bunch of Hollows with a big meat cleaver and a thing for making dolls. It's why the First Flame is gradually, inexorably going out despite all of the linking. The original lords were simply too frivolous with the power they were granted, and the necessary kindling to truly keep the flame going is tied up in other ventures, like death for the undying and a big demon spouting conflagration. Heaven only knows where Seath and the Four Kings elected to invest their fragments.

lite_sleepr posted:Sounds like someone got great arrow sniped off a precarious catwalk into a precipice i didn't, but the experience wasn't any more fun for me, only because it involved me moving forward one inch a minute, scanning every possible surface for thralls or hidden hollows or snipers or whatever so i could pick them off with my bow before they could drop on me. in retrospect there's no loot on the roof worth stopping for so i should have just ran from the bonfire all the way to the first loop back to the bonfire without stopping, but hindsight is always 20/20.

The descriptions on the Corvian weapons indicate that the Painted World still exists and that these horrible, terrible crow people are trying to find their way there. However, Irithyll is also a Painted World reference; you get a doll in order to cross a barrier into a snow world and the painting guardian set is located near Yorshka, who looks exactly like Priscilla.

Babe Magnet posted:low level pvp is absolutely hosed I cheaped out and played through most of the game at a low level (just shooting for 27 vigor and swinging a raw weapon is a great substitute for actual character progression) so I did just about all of my invasions for Rosaria and Mound Maker covenant items with up to 5 estus that were powered up to +6 or so. It was kind of unfair, really, since even with a host's double estus, I could usually heal more total health than he did, was invading with 1,000 HP at level 20, and still did decent damage for my level because of the Raw infusion. I could chug right in front of players and not care if I got hit because I'd still heal for more than them. God help them if another phantom died, because it would just grant me another flask charge or two. On one hand, I was basically a health twink and probably wasn't any fun to fight, but on the other I'm not really good at the game and needed any advantage I could get.

yeah if I got hacked by a dude who was like The Last Guardian of Asgard or a guy who could summon bonewheels or giant crabs or a guy who caused an explosion like the old demon king's with every swing I wouldn't even be mad, that'd be great instead its dudes who can 1h swing the fugs 6 times while throwing high-level pyromancies or dudes who will run away to sip while also healing to full health in the middle of a swing

Proposition Joe posted:The descriptions on the Corvian weapons indicate that the Painted World still exists and that these horrible, terrible crow people are trying to find their way there. perhaps irithyll is the painted world, which aldrich or pontiff sulyvhan dragged into the real world in their search for priscilla, and priscilla somehow morphed into yorshka. the influence of the painted world could also contribute to anor londo's state (besides dark anor londo being triggered in the past).

As I was running out of embers to fight bosses (My vig is only 15, should I buff it up a bit?), I decided to help newbies fight Old Demon King. I was summoned by one guy like 5 times, he still hasn't realised that the boss explodes when close to death. Actually having some trouble of my own vs ODK, because I don't have an appropriate weapon, so I'm stuck using a Black knight sword two-handed. Works OK, but I need to git gud.
