I think that they first few times you try to talk to him, he's sleeping. You'll always meet him in other places like anor londo. But I thought that he went away after you opened the gate to the Fortress

 

And invasions in Sen's fortress are really really fun, you can always recoup your progress later, I say get on killing those invaders. This was my favorite level in the game, both PvP and PvE.

[Elessar]

The onion knight is sleeping next to the first rolling boulder trap in Sen's Fortress. Click talk again and he should respond..

 

You can always play in soul form if the invasions are bothering you.. The boss can be taken alone easily too.

[(A)Kira]

If you want some help on the boss, wait till you get to the bonfire in the area, its quite close to the boss fog and Iron Tarkus's sign is also close to it.

 

He can more or less solo that boss.

^^ regarding the onion guy thing,it is bugged for me.

the guy is not talking.the button press is not doing anything.will see if i can meet him in areas ahead and if its still bugged,i will kill him.

 

regarding pvp , i think beelzebub you are right.i was killed once by an invader last night.and surprisingly journey back to that point from parish bonfire was very quick.

but some of them use cheap tactics.i was bowing to one guy before the fight and he tried to attack.got lucky to get back in time.

Oh I hate this, as an invader and an invadee. If anyone does this to me, after that all cheap tactics are on. WOTG, Great combustion, backstab fishing and AI involvement. Bowing back should be common courtesy.

now i can say that sens fortress is the area where i have died the most.

and not because of any enemy but those f***ing swinging blades.

and it was actually heartbreaking when i fell off the ones just before the fog gate.

[aj21]

YES YES YES YES!!!

 

reached the bonfire on the roof.

can sleep now

[(A)Kira]

The roof part is pretty easy if you kill the guy throwing the cannon balls.

 

And there is a vendor across the broken part of one of the pathways.

Done with sens fortress

Easily the best level so far but the boss was easy

Reached anor londo and WHAT A VIEW

Those open grounds are awesome for pvp

But i couldnt use cracked red eye orb there.also how to invade?i have never invaded

 

another incident of cheap tactics in invasion in sens.a guy invaded me on the roof near the archer before the boss.

He appeared behind me and pushed me off the roof.i was like wtf

He attempted a plunging attack on top of it and missed.3 hits then from my lightning uchi and the fu**er was vanquished

[Aftrunner]

To invade someone you need to be in Human form. And you need to be in an area which is "Invade-able". For Anor Londo the area you can invade in is past the stairs you get after the first circular elevator.

 

Be a little careful though, unless you join a specific Covenant those few Cracked Red Eye orbs you get are VERY limited in number. IIRC you can get less than 10 in the whole game. If you join the Darkwraith covenant there is an unlimited supply.

 

Or you can get a friend to drop a bunch for you.

Yes, AL is one of the best areas for PVP. I just entered Sens, will finish that area quickly and then we can kill n00bs in AL

 

Don't defeat the area boss, so that you can summon me.

[Heaven Angel]

Wish every thread so active like this. <3

 

'm not into Dark Souls much, but this is one of the best discussion thread on entire forum.

 

Keep 'em going.

i am not going to the boss this whole week

after so much time,finally a well lit area which is good for pvp too.will spend a lot of time here.

[(A)Kira]

This boss is one of the hardest solo, go for summons and point them at which one you want to kill first. The boss is basically just-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I'd suggest going into the painted world if you want to, it can be accessed from anor londo if you picked up the painted doll in your revisit to the asylum.

 

You'd get a lot of cool items there.

that spoiler

[(A)Kira]

Invasions in the Kiln are so goddamn fun.

 

But some people attack me when I'm gesturing, so I kill (Read spam) them with great combustion

[aj21]

a weird thing happened today.

i was invaded today by someone in anor londo .

interestingly his back was towards me but i didnt attack from behind.but in a sec (when he saw me for the first time) he thought i would attack from behind and rolled and started attacking.

he had a sword which had some horizontal slash move and some magic came from it,green colour magic.

he was also using a couple of other magic things.

i didnt attack.then he got back and bowed,so did i.

he dropped some item.i picked it up out of curiosity and the item was soul of gwyn,lord of cinder and iirc there were 99 of them.

i googled about it and it seems that its the end boss's soul.

his health was apparently low and i won after stealing a backstab.

ok, now questions.

1.is it true that it is end boss's soul?

2.is it useful?

3.what was that green magic coming from his sword?there were two types of magic,one coming forward horizontally and other blasting in front of me.

4.if it indeed was a boss soul, how could someone have 99 of them that too for random dropping?

5.if anyone on ps3 want some of these souls, let me know.

[(A)Kira]

Either he was a multiple game finisher with an SL1 charac, or he was a hacker...

 

And his weapon might have been one with a AoE attack, I'm not sure which one. If I had to guess, maybe this one- http://darksouls.wikidot.com/moonlight-greatsword

 

And the soul can only be used for two things, The great lord greatsword, or to get a miracle.

 

I'd suggest you hold onto some souls now, while consuming them will give you 20,000 souls, its a bad idea to level up recklessly. You won't be able to find players in areas if your level is too high.

 

Well you were just damn lucky I'd say.

[Aftrunner]

If you are on the PS3 then almost guaranteed he was using something called a Megamule. Its a save game that gives you maxxed out weapons and 99 of all items in your inventory when you start the game. Most people use it to get a PvP build up and running quickly to save time.

 

Since you were able to kill him, I am assuming he wasnt cheating in any other way.

 

And yeah, that does sound like the Moonlight Greatsword.

 

As to what to do with those souls, like Bee says dont level up with them. That will ruin the game and any chances of PvP you might have. Keep them with you, you can use them to buy Titanite shards and Twinkling titanite. Save you a bunch of boring farming. And you can use a couple of them to make some nifty boss items.
