Demon's Souls

[Kaisha]

Is 1-2 supposed to be a fucking bitch to beat? I decided to just move onto that other stage area on the first floor just so I could make some progress at least.

What # is this area anyway? It's the one that starts in a dark cavern and you go up a few floors via wood planks.

[EDIT] Oh come on, wtf, I somehow manage to squeeze through a small hole in the floor and fall to my death just right after finishing up my corpse run. Really tempted to just farm souls on 1-1 (even though I barely get any from the mobs there now) to get my stats higher so I stop dying every 5 minutes.

I have to say this game is a really good supplement for FFXI given I quit it recently. This game makes even that seem forgiving in all its faults.


Just hope this gets 'easier' later on in the sense of my gear/abilities down the road. I don't want to keep getting randomly owned by the normal mobs in areas for much longer.

And god f*$king damnit, I need to use the target lock more on uneven terrains, just died again swinging at a mob on a slope and missing his head every time.

[EDIT2] Ok, I'm done with this fucking area for the night. I either die from a guy three-shotting me with a poison attackm, get gang-raped by three guys at once in this area, fall off the ledge because the target lock-on selects something that *isn't* directly in front of me and screws up my movements making me fall off the ledge to my death, or I fall off the ledge regardless to my death, or some other shit, and I die, die die, die, die, and die again. Gaargh.

Just stick with it on 1-2. Don't go to the other areas yet, you're not strong enough. Farm the blue eyes knights if you have to, and use cheap soul arrow spam on the tower knight if you can't beat him the normal way.

And hate to break it to you, but this game gets harder as you level up... not easier.

Other than the 1-1 and 1-2 cutscenes, where do I need to get the last scene with the guy to get the key for the Demonbrand sword?

[Kwijiboe]

Need to open the gate on 1-3 to save Ostrava. If he wasn't there or isn't there when you open the gate. Ostrava quest cannot be completed. Unless you find him in the earlier levels and kill him for the mausoleum key. You get his gear from the black phantom version of him.

Hey kaisha what's ur soul level I'm gonna make a new char to play with you.

[Range]

Kaisha it sounds like you're doing 5-1 and 5-2, you went to the right side in the Nexus right? 1-1 is on the left side, Boletarian Palace.

Yeah, I know where 1-1 is. Just figured the place to the right (Valley of Defilement) on the same floor would be of equivalent difficulty compared to the ones up more on the stairs, boy was I wrong.

Soul level 11 currently, but given how often I die, it'll be hard to play co-op unless you're a master at staying alive to keep me summoned in. I'm also done playing for the night.

Just did a soul run of 1-1, got 3k which I guess isn't bad, grabbed me Soul Arrow with it and repaired my gear.

[Kwijiboe]

It's pretty easy to stay alive once you've beaten a level a few times.

[Kazen]

Ok I saved him in 1-3 but I didnt get a key... he's just walking around. He gave me a stone and thats it.

[Kwijiboe]

You will get the key in the next level then.

[Kazen]

Isnt 1-4 the final level?

[Odesseiron]

Where can I get a decent weapon? I know the answer is crafting, but what routes can/should I take? Or are there other alternatives which don't require crafting? I just hit soul level 68 (after spamming the crap out of 4-2) and I'm using a Bastard Sword +4 for the time being. There's gotta be something better/stronger out there that's moderately "easy?" to get.

so?

[Insanecyclone]

Getting to flamelurker than fighting him is just..just bullshit.

It took me 9 deaths to figure out I was supposed to go left and jump off that cliff to get to the boss. Then I die to him @15% because I was running low on health things and he pulled off some bullshit and killed me before I could get one off.

And just now I got him to around the same amount but I ran out of health items right when he rushed me, knocked me down, and did that aoe move.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Scour the caverns in 2-2 for a dragon sword +1. It's near the third hole furthest to the left. Follow right wall and there it will be. Upgrade it and use it until you find something better. But... It's not a good weapon to use on flamelurker, obv. You can get to flamelurker faster if you go right at the beginning but it's kind of risky... As you have to line up your drops with other platforms.

Thanks for the advice kuya, working face with this halberd now.

[Oravis]

Thanks for the advice kuya, working face with this halberd now.

I told you the halberd was awesome.

I ended up getting pure black tendancy to get the foe's ring. Now I'm camping black phantoms with my moon mirdan hammer +5 till I can get my demonbrandt back to full strength. One invader to go lol Although I use both weapons equally the demonbrandt is still inferior to the mirdan hammer/halberd in many instances. But not when wanting to rape a boss in a few hits.

I killed the same invader 3 times with the mirdan hammer and he was using demonbrandt each time.

[Tyrath]

I bet my demonbrandt could take your hammer <_<
