Dark Souls: Prepare to Die (PS3/360/PC)

[Doombear]

lol i just derped right into the Moonlight Butterfly, absolutely had no idea there was a boss behind there. Dark Knight Sword +4'd her face off.

[Rokku]

Look downish, there's a spot on the tower where it's broken, go stand there and you should be able to shoot it.

Like I said, for some reason a lot of people can't see it from that spot anymore after the patch. No idea if it's a bug, or they didn't actually want you to kill the thing, but I haven't heard of any way to fix it yet.

[Kaisha]

Roughly 50 arrows if you don't suck at shooting.

Stick to the right as you go down the dragon bridge holding your shield up, you should be able to survive the first breath then book it down the stairwell ASAP. It took me a couple tries.

I'm starting to have flashbacks to 1-2 from Demon's Souls here....


In fact, this game is fucking troll material for Demon's Souls veterans, particularly with regards to being used to the AI limitations in that vs. this. These guys are not as predictable, and have better pathfinding overall. Hell, they don't give up chase as easily either.

[Ohemgee]

Yeah that felt overly familiar. :\

[Krandor]

The dragon isn't always visible from the top of the tower for whatever reason, I never actually saw it until I was running past the area and heard his roar. I shot at him for the fuck of it and ran across that glitch by accident.

[Chun Liroy]

So like I missed the jump to get the quick draw katana... manage to survive the fall. Greeted by two... whatevers down there and he eats my face off. Bye 5 humanity and 27k souls -.-;

(Before that I fell off about 5 times on the first 2 club guys, so yeah).

[Belragga]

Dragon wasn't there for me untill I rang the first bell. Also is there some trick to invading people? my red eye orbs never work lol

[KuroTsuki]

So yeah.. I'm guessing I'm not supposed to be in Demon Ruins(area after the second bell) yet? I just beat the boss there which opened the area further and it has past bosses as normal monsters.. Shit load of minotaurs and kapra demons.

[tyven]

i accidentally wandered to the gargoyles ADIOS LIFE SOUL SAVINGS AND HUMANITY

[Myrrh_Quetz]

So...I found a 9 headed Hydra that fucked me up so bad I'll be shitting water for a month.

I also figured out a nice little kite path to kill that Enemy that looks like Boir from Demon Souls. For people having issues with him. Get a bunch of arrows and throwing knives. Pull him to the door of that tower and just constantly kite him in and out of it. Sometimes he'll come on the stairs but he won't go down them. He'll do a backwards walk back to his spawn point but you can get a few arrow shots off on him with ease. Walk through the door, he'll come back, back up a little once he gets close, repeat till dead. That's what I did.

I also found a nice little grind spot, nothing epic but it gets you 300 souls per run and each run only takes about 20 seconds each. It's decent for early farming.

Why wouldn't you just tell people its using the dragon bridge's proximity to a fire to reset the guys on the bridge over and over

[Myrrh_Quetz]

Cause that's less fucking mysterious you asshole D: lol

[Souj]

God, the ghosts under the first bonfire camp suck ass. and they just keep coming and coming. fuck it, I'm gonna go back into the forest.

[KuroTsuki]

Wow, that fucking sucks. Somehow the NPC that upgrades my flask died. I'm guessing an NPC like Yurt did it. Bah!

Was mentioned earlier, but the knight in gold is your culprit. You get a chance to dole out some street justice on him and bring her back to life though.

Damn! I thought it was him too. He acted like a dick. Anyway, that's good to hear. Thanks.

[Kais]

got invaded at the bottom of blightsville, immediately summoned a phantom and just dodged her until he arrived
don't think she had no idea of him sneaking behind her, got 3 humanity and her butcher's sword!

[Souj]

what do you need to open the glowing door in the darkroot forest? the door that leads to the bonfire closest to the butterfly

[Myrrh_Quetz]

How does one kill that Capra Demon?

Can confirm that dragon appeared for me AFTER i rang the first bell. I shot him and ran down stairs and got the 10k souls. woohoo
