Aftrunner Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Pretty much what Ty says. Only thing I will add is if you are stuck at a boss, lay down your own summon sign and help out someone else. Best way to learn how to beat a boss is to co op it. That way you help someone else beat the boss. You learn the boss's patterns. But most of all you get a shitload of souls. Easier than farming and much more fun. Prioritize your points into VIT and END. Having a lot of health is really important if you are a beginner, it will let you make mistakes and live. You can always get Chaos/Fire/Lightning weapons that dont require high stats but do great damage. But nothing beats having a sh*t ton of health.

Ne0 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 also, one more quick question - how long does it take to complete this game ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 It's really subjective. The first playthrough will always take the longest. Took me about 40 hours I think. However NG+ took less than 15 even with harder enemies. Subsequent playthroughs have mostly been under 15-20 hours. It's really amazing how quickly you can go through the game if you understand it well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbpoovannagamer Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 is it just me or is the boss in the DEPTHS with all the teeth (freaky ) EASY to kill ? i killed it in the first attempt itself. but the monster is a sight to behold . those developers have imagination that is grotesque and cool !!

Tyler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yeah Gaping Dragon has the best boss intro plus his design is totally messed up. I won't really say he's "easy", he can be challenging if you aren't prepared and he has a ton of health. Looks like you are getting better and have some decent equipment. Then again you did manage to beat Queelag before him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again you did manage to beat Queelag before him I also like Grey wolf Sif's intro, which was very unexpected And i also felt Gaping Dragon was easier than Queelag boss fight. Can you tell me how to get the Thorn set? This one : . According to the wiki i have to kill Knight Kirk when he invades me at three different locations i.e Depths, Demon ruins and Lost Izalith before killing the area boss. But i have already killed Gaping dragon So any chance of getting this armor? Looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'd say the entire team is great. Even the writing, which doesn't get the credit it deserves is brilliant. The world lore, item descriptions and whatever little dialogue is present in the game is amazing. Almost everything right from the weapons, armor, enemies and bosses has a story behind it. And unlike most games it's not blatantly in your face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like i am the only one who feels level design and art of demon souls were better...even boss designs i feel of demons souls were better. Some of the boss of dark souls that i liked was that sif the wolf,gaping dragon i agree was really nicely designed...i cant think of much from dark soul..the dlc bosses i liked though...

Tyler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Meanmachine.... Nope I don't think you can get it now. You must kill him at all three locations for the armour to spawn. Don't worry though, the armor isn't that great. If anything it may increase your chance to accidentally damage NPCs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Screw YouTube man, playing it first hand is an amazing experience. For anyone else planning to play Demon's Souls - do not watch that video and spoil it for yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbpoovannagamer Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 should i be heading to sen fortress now that i rang both bells and completed depths ? what happens if go to dark root garden instead? what is the use of being in covenants ? how do i rank up? i was in way of the white covenant but nothing came up that was covenant related so i joined chaos servant covenant so have i committed sin by abandoning way of the white ?? nice art work i found in darksouls wiki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) @pb... Yeah Sen's Fortress should be next. But I'd recommend going to Darkroot Garden/Basin and getting some of the items there (Wolf Ring, Elite Knight set, Glass Crest Shield etc). You can also try beating the two bosses and the hydra. They aren't that difficult. And yeah you committed a sin by joining another Covenant without leaving the previous one. I will try to explain Covenants a bit more in detail later (on phone right now). But don't worry too much about it. Covenants are optional and you really shouldn't bother too much on the first playthrough. Unless you're playing a Pyro build, in which case joining Chaos Servant will help greatly. Edited February 13, 2013 by Tyler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
