Got No-Man's Wharf to go. I'm very excited to see your post for when you beat No-Man's Wharf and get to the zone after it.

Look Sir Droids posted:I got the dagger but the AR is lower than the broken sword. Where’s the Morningstar? It's better because it attacks way faster than the broken sword. Morning star is hidden on a cliff near the betwixt entrance that you need to jump off onto.

Paracelsus posted:The one you got via the Pursuer's arena is the better way to access a useful blacksmith hidden behind a wall that has to be broken by an exploding barrel, and also the only way to pick up an item to give to that blacksmith. You can also grab several large titanite shards without much issue. The one from NMW will allow you to get an Estus shard if you're thorough in exploring. Not once have I ever gotten the barrel to work, I always wait until I just have the loving key.

Son of Thunderbeast posted:So I found a spot in Harvest Valley where a knight was in a weird out of the way spot, guarding an obvious walkway that seemed to lead to nothing. I went up with a torch and it gave me a prompt to light it on fire, so I did. The gears and noise stopped, but did it do anything else? Or is this just a neat easter egg? You broke the windmill that was pumping poison throughout the tower. There's going to be less spots with poison now.

Son of Thunderbeast posted:oh sweet! I have to go back through after I clear out Iron Keep then. If you've already beaten it there's not much point. The only things it affects I can think of off the top of my head are the poison pool against the boss is lower so she can't heal, and there's a lockstone that spits out healing water now instead of poison.

NGDBSS posted:My favorite Dark Souls boss is the final one from Ivory King. The fight is a chaotic, glorious mess between the boss and his buddies on one side...against you and your own buddies on the other. There's some fights where it's an army vs. you, but Ivory King is the only one where it's an army vs. YOUR army.

GutBomb posted:I have been experimenting with parrying since I have never really done it in any souls game (I did a lot in bloodborne and sekiro) and I’m experiencing something weird that I can’t find online. Every time I parry I lose 3-5 durability on whatever I’m parrying with, whether I get the parry or miss. I tried doing it with a shield, while 2 handing my Zweihander, and while 2 handing an Uchigatana. I just couldn’t get the timing right doing it bare-handed. DS2 parrying is terrible, don't bother.

dantheman650 posted:I’m starting to see why people don’t like this as much as DS1. The mid-game areas feel really disjointed and the geography is strange. I find myself constantly wondering where exactly I am and even where I’m going. I just beat my second “big” boss and getting a big empty room with a primal bonfire seems so strange. I’m still enjoying it but I definitely feel a little directionless, even if there are a ton of ways to go. Look forward to the area where they just forgot to make a texture for it.
