I think 24 is pretty good for Gaping Dragon, I think.

Queelag is a bit higher. I can't remember the level I was at specifically but it was somewhere in the 30-40 range and I was getting summoned like crazy.

Gwyn keeps owning me. Taking a break. Need to formulate a better plan of attack. His relentless style doesn't mesh with my usually melee turtle strategy.

I don't know what's worse. Hosts that get killed by the boss, or the hosts that summon two phantoms and then actively avoid the boss while the phantoms fight it for them.

There's a special hell for hosts that banish their phantoms as the boss is about to die, but I haven't personally run into any of those yet.

Host dying isn't that bad when it's against a ahrd boss.

But it's freaking Queelag.

And I've switched my Spell Loadout to an all-out Soul Arrow one, Magic weapon while awesome doesn't allow me to kill the boss fast enough, and speed is key there since otherwise the hosts get killed by the splosion.

Iron Flesh


magic goes against my rules of game play. I don't have stone armor I don't think. I need to work on my parry timing though, I've been using a greatshield all game basically so I've not parried a damn thing.

I suck at parrying. I tried, but I'd always end up missing and getting combo'd to death. I swapped to a Crystal Halberd and just rolled around his attacks and smacked him every time he missed a grab or a kick.

Beat the Hydra, died to the Stray Demon, beat some more Black Knights, got my ass handed to me in the Valley of Drakes, died to invisible ****s past the Hydra. Probably gonna keep exploring in that area for a bit.
I'm SL31, am I just too balanced? I haven't focused on any one stat, been upgrading relatively evenly. I guess you could say I'm mostly Dex/Str right now (18/20, respectively), and started out as a Wanderer. But I'm having more trouble than I think I should.

Also, Havel is wicked strong.

Stats are literally meaningless except for Vit and End (Att. too if you,re a caster), it's all about gear and skill.

Upgrade your gear, get better gear.

If all else fails go Pyromancy and win the game.

Stats are only meaningless if you're pyro.

If you want to use a str weapon or a dex weapon you need to invest points in those stats. If you want to roll as a sorcerer, you need to invest points in INT, etc.

so unless you're running the game on easy mode, you should look at what weapons you want to use down the line and add stats accordingly.

Right now using anything except the Drake Sword seems silly (BK Sword is boss, but way too cumbersome and I don't like that), but I really liked my Winged Spear earlier. Is it worth it to get it to +5 then upgrade it so it does magic damage or something?

Aaah yeah, finally managed to kill Queelag before the host died.

I decided to equip the ring that gives more charges to your spell but you lose half your HP, doesn't matter much since I'm never gonna get hit by this boss.

Heavy soul arrow does like 250dmg even with my meager 14 int so it's nice.

If you like your Winged Spear, you can keep upgrading it. There are a few paths you can choose to go with it. Lightning is the most popular, there's also Magic (scales with INT I think), Divine (scales with Faith), and Fire.

Aaah yeah going well ! 3 victories in a row, gaining only 3 levels seem to have got me rid of the bad players.

Also I really love the Dark Souls community, everybody bows to one another when being summoned, even invaders. An invader and the invaded bowing to one another before fighting to the death is awesome.

Ayuyu, you're making me feel bad that I've literally done nothing online-y outside of reading people's messages and watching their ghosts. Bloodstains in this game aren't as helpful as they were in DeS, so I barely even look at those.

I'm just never Human enough to do anything!

That's why I only attack with spells, melee is risky whatever you say, unless you wait for that one attack before attacking then you're gold.
