I didn't even try to dodge most of them. There were two attacks that were definitely dodge-able.

1. The one where they jump really high in the air and slam down

Just run towards where they were.

2. The combo where they stab with their hammer and then swing.

Block or dodge hammer jab and then move to your right around them.

Besides that, they connect. My technique was just making sure I had both of them in my vision at all times.

Also, don't jump off the shelf where you are fighting the 1st one. Kill him up there. If you jump off, the other two will attack. If you don't, they won't move until you kill the 1st one.

They will also jump onto the first ledge after you kill the lone guardian as well. Found that out as a phantom

Yea, they will. I did realize that one will jump down first giving you a few seconds before you have to fight two.


On another note, I just got to the boss after them and rapidly got my arse destroyed. Didn't even get a hit in him.

Yes, I've updated my bastard sword to +4, and loving it. The game has become a lot easier for me with that sword and the drangleic shield.

Finally found the 4th shard for my Estus flask and the 4th bonfire in lost Bastille. There was a whole area I hadn't even touched.

And what's up with the Pirate Ship? I can't even get to it.

In case anyone hasn't found it yet, there is an Estus shard in Majula, besides the one in the chest in the big house. Up to 5 now.

There's a bell you ring to get the ship to move closer. It's at the top of the far buildings.

You're talking about the pirate ship in the Wharf? There's a bell in that big cave too.

The ship that you can get to from Lost Bastille. I must've missed the bell in the cave.

I beat the sinner, the gargoyles and two invaders in one life. I'm so pumped up right now. As soon as I entered the belfry area I got invaded by two players. I retreated to the walkway with cliffs on either side and one guy rolled off and killed himself and I outdueled the other

Old dragonslayer was tougher for sure. He was a terrible deacon though, I'm used to being handed a program when I enter a cathedral. Instead he tries to kill me

Yea, he was more like a dick-con instead of a deacon.

Got through Heide's and No Man's Wharf. Entering into area after the door you find Rosabeth petrified by.

Any hope this game makes it over to PS4? I hate buying stuff for my PS3 because while the DS4 will work with this game, some of the stuff doesn't work right.
