re: **Official DARK SOULS II - In Game Thread (Gamer-Tags included in OP)

I think we are still friends on XBL. Hit me up if you get stuck and ill drop a sign where you are to help (if I remember how to beat the boss)

Oh yeah, that's another thing. You have to get the soapstone before you can even summon someone for help '

Spoilers kind of
































The easies thing about the catacombs is the boss....and then welcome to the tomb of the giants

I just thought about after I posted that. In the scheme of things, catacombs and tomb of giants is child's play compared to the likes of blight town and sens fortress

F u blight town

Tomb isn't too bad if you know where to go. Once you get passed the black knight you can run passed most of the enemies or spam them with pyro.

The Duke's Archives is my bane.

I dropped my summon sign there for a few hours one day and racked up like 200k souls. I got a message from one person i helped to the affect of "you're a savior...I've been stuck here for a week"

I've got Tomb of giants, and Blighttown down to a science. If you're not going down to Blighttown via the waterwheel from the valley of drakes, you're doing it wrong. And once you make it through to the 2nd bonfire in ToG, you're good! You can totally not fight any of the dog skeleton frickers.

All the Harry potter changing bridges and walkways is what gets me in Dukes Archives.

Honestly though at this point the only thing I truly hate about the game is Bed of Chaos. You have to time that stupid jump perfectly. It always takes me 20 tries or so.

Waterwheel is the only way ive ever gone

Made it to the taurus demon and got promptly beat the frick down.

No idea what im doing or where im going..just trying to level up I guess. Learned how to jump.

Protip: learn to parry

Useful now but critical later in the game

Ugh

Mj..yeah..trying to parry, but my controller skills and timing are weak and rusty..keep mistiming the parry and get a nice stab to the gut.

All in due time..ill get it figured out.

so..from where that giant bird drops me off..should I go up or down? Up seemed easier. Up obviously led me to the taurus demon.. down had some skeletons that wrecked me.
