acid1 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Well I finally bought this game (it was cheap). And it sure is frustrating. I can't even the past the first boss (the Asylum Demon) There is a small window of invincibility when you roll. Master dodging and you master the game. Well, it also helps to remeber the enemies patterns of attacks (like getting the fck out of the way when the asylum demon flies into the air).

Frank Poole Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Well I finally bought this game (it was cheap). And it sure is frustrating. I can't even the past the first boss (the Asylum Demon) Stick to his ass crack like glue and hack away two handed. When he jumps into the air, roll back and as soon as he lands get back to dat azz. Also, I'm assuming you escaped through the doorway when you first encountered him, right? Because if you're still using the sword hilt, you're not supposed to beat him yet.

spratters Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I need to put more effort into this I think. I kept getting done by the pairs of skeletons which pop up in the graveyard. Fuckers. I probably need a good long stint to fucking smash through a load of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitroast Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 graveyard is wrong direction at the start of the game! it took me so long to realise this. with the game having such a reputation for high difficulty, i thought i was just sucking :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cult fiction Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I am finding this game is hugely better post-1.05 patch. Humanity drop rate increase makes it easy and fun to do more online oriented stuff and kindle up bonfires. Seeing more interesting strategies with black phantoms - before I got hit by a lot of really annoying spell stuff(slow down, iron flesh, etc.) that has all been nerfed. Best fights are with people who toss estus flask disabling items constantly. The big increase in souls gained makes beating bosses feel more rewarding, which along with the Anor Londo blacksmith selling twinkling tinite, makes it way less aggravating to upgrade your stuff. I did Lost Izalith only aggroing a single dragon legs. That part was a major slog before, carefully killing off each of the like 5-8 in your way before the tower unless you just tried to run it. Game is still very difficult, but is now only a bit harder than Demon's Souls rather than a lot. Good going From! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sprigg Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 ^I agree, the patch made the game much more enjoyable (and I enjoyed it a hell of a lot my first time!) I'm now having DS withdrawal... knew I'd regret selling my xbox :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was starting to get to me. I'll have another go and hopefully get quite a bit further without wasting time like I was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hey guys, had a small question and felt like I should ask WATMM first. I'm right at the end of my first play through with a dex/faith char. I want to get the Black Bow of Pharis before NG. I've heard she can be quite the bitch and I just want the easiest way to do this possible. Currently I'm in the forest hunters covenant so I can walk right up to her. This was my plan: Walk up to her Apply Power within Cast Sunlight Blade Cast Tranquil Walk of peace Spam my 3 Wrath of Gods Swing like crazy Does this seem viable? Will Tranquil Walk of Peace aggro her (or the knight body guard)? Its mostly so she doesn't run around the first aggro'ing everything, and that I can get my WOG's off. I heard TWoP was nerfed in 1.05 to 10 seconds so I'm not sure this will be enough time to kill her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AcrossCanyons Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Pharis isn't hard but if you kill anyone in the Forest Covenant the cat ain't gonna be happy. (also her hat is hella cool) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Its on my list of last 3 things to do. I'm going to rejoin the SunBros and get to +10 in the covenant before killing Gwyn so I can get his Sunlight Spear in NG. I'm just hoping I can get it right the first time so I don't have to fight through the entire forest every time I want to retry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Poole Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 If you approach her around the right you can lure her out by herself. Just follow the center path in the forest by the light flowers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Yeah, I had no problem with this at all. 30 Faith + WoG = 600+ dmg ... it took 2 to kill Pharis, and then I killed her guard for fun. Off to kill Gywn :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Poole Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 I got some lols from these vids. The guy in the second video just runs around scratching his butt, throwing dung pies at people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbIhwTClif4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?&gl=US&hl=en&client=mv-google&v=zWld56cZvY8&nomobile=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Lol I loved the first clip where that black phantom invaded, stood there for a couple seconds like "WTF" then black seperation crystal'd out of there. The last battle in the second clip was cool too. Also felt mentioning -WTF- butt scratcer in the second clip had 62 WOGs? Is he onlike NG+^21 ?

Frank Poole Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I think he's using "Force", which is WOG without the damage and has 21 uses per copy. IIRC, it can be obtained twice per playthrough. Quite handy for staggering people and especially useful on narrow ledges and bridges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneaksta303 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Oh man I'm loving this game... The Gaping Dragon is so damn interesting to look at m goodness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blir Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm stuck on the gaping dragon myself. Lost 16,000 souls to him. Was unable to retrieve them because of a glitch where I fell through the floor into infinity and died again. Really annoyed me, not played since the weekend. A lot of people apparently had an issue with the Capra Demon, but I decked him first time. Love this game. Nice and hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was unable to retrieve them because of a glitch where I fell through the floor into infinity and died again. Really annoyed me, not played since the weekend. When the gaping dragon is running around on two legs, run away from him and wait for him to smash on the ground. At this point you can either hit his nose for 200% damage, or wait a few seconds for him to run in a straight line and then hit him when he stops. If you hit his tail, you run the run the risk of him hitting you back with it. If he flies in the air, run away till he lands. if starts doing the macarena, run cuz hes most likely to spray poison on the ground. Oh and finally, you run faster on rocks then water (usually).

sneaksta303 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I hate that stuff he spreads on the ground that makes your weapons break :/ I still haven't beaten him yet. Obel, make sure you cut off his tail to get the Dragon King Greataxe... Although it requires 50 str to use I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 That's weird, I found the gaping dragon to be one of the easiest boss fights. Just keep your distance, wait for him to slam his face down, and as he's charging forward run for dat ass and smack the shit out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneaksta303 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Yeah to be fair I was going at him rather impatiently the 2 times I fought him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
