+15? then yeah that's a problem. Game works like DS3, there's both SL and weapon level matchmaking.
Goddamn it. If I use a less upgraded weapons does it change?

Because it is. BB and DaS III (esp. the DLC) are clearly the hardest Souls content. It's funny how people feared the series would get easier upon hitting the mainstream, when in reality it got progressively harder, even if only incrementally.I will say one thing, I find this game considerably easier than Bloodborne and DSIII.
Nope
Yeah, but I am no big online player mainly because I am not very good :)
Maybe I will start a different character - this one was my first faith character. Maybe I will start over, progress is really stalling for me now...
Where's the best farming spot before sens? It's kicking my ass so need to level and upgrade stuff.

Yes.Can't remember and need to be sure, do Covenant items (like Concord Ears or Gold Medals) are maintained when jumping to NG+ in DS1?
Darkroot Garden or Undead Parish (with the Balder Knights), maybe?
Darkroot, through the gate that needs the Artorias Seal to open. You can bait the 3 Forest Hunters there (invisible guy, Spider Shield Bandit, and Sorcerer) to kill themselves, for 2k souls each. Just aggro them, then run past the stairs and line yourself up with the side of them and the cliff. They'll run up the stairs, try to fall down to you, but bounce off your head and fall off the edge.
You could also do co-op.on a boss as well if you want. Just put white soap stones down near bosses you've already beat.
More like terrible memory :pForgot you couldn't place Lord Vessel if you want to join Darkwraith. Terrible bullshit design...eat my ass FromSoft
There's certainly an argument that can be made for Bloodborne being the superior game, but it takes a while before you can fully appreciate the brilliance of Dark Souls level/world design. Another thing I prefer in Dark Souls is the amount of variety it offers in terms of builds. There seem to be more kinds of characters you can build, really adds to the replayability.
Smurf popo deserve it though. :DThe true beauty of this amazing game is that you can play any way you like, but that is a dick move for sure...
lol. Welcome to Dark Souls! I had a similar experience, gosh almost 9 years ago now, when first playing Demon's Souls. They're now my all-time favourites.I posted this in another thread last night (language warning - it's a thread filled with mostly British people):
An hour or so later, I posted this:
Suffice to say I had a change of heart.
It's not bullshit design. Darkwraith was always meant to be an obscure/secret covenant. Also no need to be vulgar. :PForgot you couldn't place Lord Vessel if you want to join Darkwraith. Terrible bullshit design...eat my ass FromSoft
Decided to join the Darkwraith covenant for the first time. Normally I just play human and let people invade me, but because that doesn't seem to be happening much I'm going to seek the PVP out myself. Pretty excited to try out being on the other end of this.
I'd also never done the forest covenant before and tried it briefly earlier in my run, I'm really confused about the etiquette there. I zoned in and a blue was shield spamming at me to come to him I think, then there was the human, and they were just emoting at each other, and then another phantom summoned in, and no one was attacking each other only emoting and I had no idea what was going on. I didn't wanna mess up whatever they were doing so I just rolled off the cliff. Don't think I'm ready for that yet.
Nah, it's gatbage designSmurf popo deserve it though. :D

The artorias fight has the worst performance I've encountered in the game so far and considering the dlc was a bug reason I repurchased this it' pretty disheartening. Tons of frame rate drops.

My experience has been the polar opposite...I feel the new matchmaking rules aren't working as intended. Twinking is more prevalent than before and only hinders the activity in many places so far.
That's a vagrant. Always been there but super rare.Anyone else run into a glowing crab creature that shoots projectiles?
It's a new enemy to me.
Seriously? I've platinumed the game on ps3 and have a dozen playthroughs - not once have I seen it.My experience has been the polar opposite...

In my defense, considering they're blue Phantoms, they must know that I'm guilty XD.
Anyways, is their vigilante justice any worse than what I'm doing lol?
I always play the good guy/co-op healer on Souls games. Being a Darkwraith finally and just being the biggest asshole I possibly can is liberating.
LOL Well have at it then! I have actually keptalive for once and joined the Darkmoon Blades (mostly for the weapon buff) so maybe we will run into each other...Gwyndolin
They last pretty long. I'd say you 3 should be enough, or two if you know where you're going.How many transient curses do you think is needed for the first run of New Londo? I know the tricks the game pulls here, I just want that red eye orb faster.

Yeah, I think this might have to do with autosave (on PC at least... I'm playing it on a traditional hard drive though and not an SSD). I've been trying to pay attention to when it happens and it *seems* to coincide? Hard to say for sure though. The only time my framerate really tanked was when I was working on the Undead Dragon in the Valley of Drakes. If I was running through its poison, the framerate would drop to half or less. Didn't happen in Ariamis though.My frame rate is rock solid, but I get random spikes within game of like 0.5 - 1 second where the game just pauses and then resumes like normal. It's too noticeable to be microstutter, but it's pretty frequent and really annoying...
Same thing for me. I'm not over leveled or anything. There are a couple of signs at the end of the Kiln and I got invaded by a guy called The Legend which was nice but other than that, zip.Did everyone suddenly stop playing the game?
I can't find one summon sign in Anor Londo.
Yes, in NG+ ;)I've played through this game a few times, but this is the first time that I am using miracles and being a Sunbro. I want to get the sunlight blade obviously, and I know that I have to kill Gwendolyn or something in Anor Londo to get it....but that makes everything dark right? Does it ever go back to normal?
Correct.I thought it only went dark in Anor Londo if youshot at the Gwynevere projection, unless I'm mistaken.
Thought so. Some memories from my first playthrough are vague but I remember killing Gwyndolin and Anor Londo still being bathed in sunlight afterwards.
Because it's vague ass BS that can completely ruin a play through. It basically punishes players that don't use a guide. I put 500 hrs into the game but just didn't think about the stupid ass restriction. Now my playthrough is ruinedHow is it any different from other secrets in the game? It offers you an incentive to defeat Four Kings early before you get to Anor Londo.
Edit: Or rather it rewards you for defeating them first xD
I think it only works for strengthWait, since when can you not two hand weapons you slightly dont have the stats for? Is this a bug? Am I crazy?

Nah. Theres even stuff you wont be able to get / do till NG and NG+. Thats how these games roll.
