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

[Ragnell]

How the fuck do i beat these two faggots holy fuck

[Hyan]

OH YEAH

BREAK THE WEAPON IN THE MIDDLE OF FUCKING BOSS FIGHT

FAGGOTS

beat it anyway, not really fucking happy at all about this bullshit though. Like these cockfuckers arent hard enough already

cant even repair it from where i am, g fucking g

[tyven]

Question, I fucked up when I talked to the NPC down in the Queelana's lair, the one that is supposed to let me thru to talk to her sister. If I absolve will it reset the convo, he wont let me change my answer. I guess I could kill him. What is the downside to killing him.

What ember gives the lightning upgrades, and where can i find it? +10ed my Katana from Blighttown and with my stats so low (soul lvl 36) i find it underwhelming

You don't need any embers, the smith in Anor Londo can do it for you as soon as you find him

How the fuck do i beat these two faggots holy fuck

managed to solo them by managing the fat one behind a broken pillar while throwing hits to the small one
but if you're trying to get the smaller one's soul then that's a whole other story, fuck that lightning spear grab bullshit

also, i got a divine partisan and a silver knight's spear. to kill skeletons for good, do i just need holy element or does it strictly have to be a divine weapon

[Hyan]

killing these harder soldiers would be fun if my weapons actually worked on them. 12 dmg a hit is bullshit. i had those enhancement items for my right arm but of course i ran out.

I cant get to her because homeboy with the eggs on his back wont let me through. he asked me if i was there to serve and i answered wrong. It looks like he sells spells, I want some spells. I dont want to kill him.

I quit DS after failing to get through the first stage (low tolerance, can't accept defeat, sore loser, etc.). I really want this, but I'm so fucking conflicted.

I can only wish there was something like the first stage of DS here.

Probably not for you, but this is the best RPG I've ever played. So much fun and epic bosses.

Also, this game is most def. harder than Demon souls. Enemies are relentless compared to the likes of Lizardmen, ratmen or mindflayers.

[tyven]

the thing i like about this game is the world. its got that open world thing but with dungeons. it doesnt feel like anything i have played before with the way everything is connected.

[Doombear]

And as for who i'm referring to, against the wall of the bottom of the swamp is an NPC merchant. The leader of the forest guys in Darkroot who sits right outside Aveline's(sp?) little structure.

You call yourself a Forest Covenant Member and you don't pay proper respect to Cat Leader?! SHAME!

I am fairly certain that the green shards are lightning (and all element upgrades until +5)? Those are best farmed from the leeches in the swamps of Blighttown. Easy run from the Great Hollow bonfire if you like. Grab some Homeward Bones and just kill the 15 or so Leeches, warp to Bonfire run down, repeat. Bones are 800 Souls each from the Merchant in the long sewer tunnel between Firelink and Depths entrance.

Best. Ever. I haven't been this psyched to gtfo of work and go home just to farm Twinkling Titanite (WHICH IS A HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PROCESS) just to upgrade some shit I don't need to upgrade right now. Damn. So good.

I wouldn't really worry about DEX/STR scaling in your first playthrough as a melee character, since you'll be around SL 70-80 when finishing assuming you didn't grind forever.

The best way to get through the game the first time is get your STR/DEX to whatever you need to wield a weapon, usually around ~20. Pump END up to 40 (stops giving stamina after that), and drop whatever else in VIT. Getting the most stamina possible is what you want, so that you can roll faster and block more. That will keep you alive.

You'll never get your DEX or STR high enough to matter much for scaling purposes, on the first playthrough at least.

Pretty sure Lightning is Titanite Chunks.

I'm no where near as far as you guys, but I must say, this is one of the best games I've ever played. Bosses deliver, game delivers, only thing is frame rate issues (particularly in blighttown).

The only major gripes I have with the game are the invasion nerfs and how just about every invasion based covenant was implemented terrible (all of them I've seen so far except Darkwraiths have some terrible design flaws), and that str/dex builds are pointless because lightning weapons do a lot more damage than any scaling weapon.

The design is fantastic though, there's so many awesome and great looking zones that you haven't really seen in any other games, and the enemies/weapons/armor look fantastic also.

Saw this on reddit, haven't seen it here yet, seems useful.

that is awsome

Jesus fuck, Ceaseless Discharge is a huge bitch if you don't kill him the 1st time... How am I supposed to reset him so I can just roll and slash his tentacles if he keeps shooting flaming kamehameha's at me?

I don't mind the challenge, I just hate repeating shit and that's the part about DS that got to me. Actually just read up on the wiki that you can make your own checkpoints via bonfires, is that limited in any way?

[Souj]

it's repetative in that if you die, you have to redo shit. And you'll probably be doing that a lot, especially if you're new to D Souls.
You can't make youre own checkpoints, they are all laid out for you. you can choose not to use them though, though if you do use the bonfires, that ends up respawning all the enemies.



Yeah, I'm at a loss on how to kill Ceaseless Discharge on the very narrow pathway, especially when half the time he decides to shoot a giant apparently unblockable flame at me and take up a bunch of my life before I can even get close to him.
