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

[Eggroll]

Holy shit.. Did anybody else grab the gold-hemmed armor set pass the second bell? It looks awesome(grim reaper-ish like the knights in LotR movies), strong as fuck and light as hell. I almost wanna think there's some type of penalty for wearing it but the description says nothing like that.

The penalty is 0 poise, which actually makes it a pretty bad choice despite having great defense and being so lightweight. I'm using the Eastern Armor body / helmet and the Gold hem hands / foot gear and it's working so much better.

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

Blacksmith sells the crest to open the door for 20k. Also, where's eastern body come from, Egg?

[Kaelan?]

What does Poise do?

[Cephius]

What does Poise do?

Reduces the chance of you getting stunned by an attack

question about Lautrec

Spoiler: show

i have seen that he is eventually going to kill the fire keeper at firelink shrine, hes chillin there now sitting across from her, she is still alive, should i kill him here or let it play out or what?

[Kaelan?]

Spoiler: show

You get to kill him later for his stuff and she'll be revived in the process, so I don't see why not. As long as you don't mind not having flask upgrades and the firelink bonfire available for a while. It's nowhere near as bad as letting Yurt rampage around killing all your vendors

[Tyrath]

Honestly, if you're a melee I'd recommend just killing him now. I love the ring he drops. +20% HP, Stamina, and Weight Load. Only downside is that it says it breaks if you remove it.

[Souj]

Wonder how the red dragon fight would have played out if it wasn't glitched.
How did they not catch that?

[tyven]

KILLING HIM NOW

[Kais]

How does one kill that Capra Demon?

try killing the dogs as quick as possible, then just plunge his face till he dies
also 1/1 on spiderboobs lavamilk, dunno which place to hit up next. scared to enter the forest cause some invisible knight keeps wrecking my shit, how do i even hit him?

[Chun Liroy]

I KILLED HIM NO REGRETS.

[tyven]

shit that was not an easy fight lulz

[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).

I am so afraid of failing to try and get my souls and stuff, that I decided to make a pyromancer in the mean time.

OFFER ME WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TYVEN.

The wise hat is so fucking cash though, I feel like a baller.

[Tyrath]

For me, he rolled backwards, fell down onto the stairs. Then he ran up the stairs and fell off the cliff.......

I was afraid I wouldn't get his drop but I reset and his drop was sitting where he was before.

[tyven]

leroy go get your stuff, just be cool and calm and collected. or lose it all. i cannot tell you how many times i have lost it all. never that much though

[tyven]

For me, he rolled backwards, fell down onto the stairs. Then he ran up the stairs and fell off the cliff.......

I was afraid I wouldn't get his drop but I reset and his drop was sitting where he was before.

he parried the shit out of me attacked through my shield, shit was not cash, i had to result to doing the two hand special with drake sword over and over

[Chun Liroy]

I just blocked and backstabbed him like 3 times, wasn't bad lol.

Thus far...

Spoiler: show

Gaping Dragon is the coolest looking, but also the lamest fight sorta like Dragon God, god Dragon god was fucking amazing looking.

Tyven watch this awesome boss. Doesn't he look like one scary motherfucker. (From demon souls, spoiler since it's from demon's souls)

[Krandor]

Forward + R2 (depending on whatever weapon you have, something where you lunge or jump forward), will tear him up pretty good. Do it from a distance and by the time he recovers from hit stun you'll be able to roll out.

Rocking that ring + the Evil Eye ring, combo is so money. Though it sadly does not prevent you from falling off a cliff and losing 20k souls.

[KuroTsuki]

How exactly does the Evil Eye ring work? It didn't seem like it was working. Unless it's a very small amount.

[Tyrath]

Where do you get Evil Eye ring?
