The puppy on the right is adorable.

Yeah cuz he isn't full black huh


race

[Victor]

But Bloo, he's brown.

[Hector Garfria]

Doesn't matter, only I can pull the brown card. It's in the fine print, open a book once in a while

[Victor]

I will Bloo. Sorry Bloo. Forgive me Bloo.

[Arttemis]

I say they're white, they just have black/brown hair.

[Dooshkin]

Like how polar bears are actually black with white fur.


Also, Dark Souls opinion/complaint/observation.

[Gorilla Gravy]

Fuck Sen's Fortress, fuck invaders, and fuck FS's shitty matchmaking.

[Victor]

Someone needs coaching. What system do you play on?

[Gorilla Gravy]

PS3.

Tried for over an hour to play with my friend who's pretty much an expert at this game but the matchmaking is fucked. It would take forever for his sign to appear and every time it did he failed to summon.

Then while I was waiting I got invaded by this dude. We circled each other for a solid 5 minutes and when I went in to attack he parried and killed me in one hit.

Sen's Fortress will have to wait for another day.

[Victor]

It's easy after you know the traps.

[Arttemis]

Laying your sign down is the way to go I'd you need a risk-less way of learning an area. You work together, learning the path, traps, and enemies' tactics. If you die, you lose nothing, and if you win, you get humanity and souls.

[Gorilla Gravy]

Its not the traps that fuck me up, its the enemies.

[Victor]

lol, really? What's your build?

[Gorilla Gravy]

Don't really have one. I just level up whatever I think I need. Works fine for me until I get to this place.

[Victor]

I didn't mean "what build are you following" as much as "what are your stats".

[Gorilla Gravy]

Let me see...

Level 40
Vitality 17
Attunement 13
Endurance 17
Strength 18
Dexterity 18
Resistance 18
Intelligence 12
Faith 12

[Victor]

Hum... yeah... way too even. How do you feel about parrying?

[Gorilla Gravy]

I suck at it.

Anyway, after dying 20+ times I finally made it to the bonfire by the boss so I should be good.

Turns out a lot of problems can be solved by bow and a shitload of wooden arrows

That will solve many of the problems with enemies in this game. It won't solve the problem with your cowardice though.

If you are having trouble in a specific area, you should gain a couple of levels and come back to it. From the looks of your stats, I would seriously suggest upgrading your endurance and putting on some heavier armor or a decent shield. You can level all the way up to 65 while going through the area after Senn's Fortess and up to 55 while you're there and still find a million different people to co-op with. It'll take less time than the arrows and you can see the area without the chance of losing any souls. Always throw your white sign down a couple of times in a new area just to get a peak at it and some free souls.

Don't level up resistance. It's basically useless. Pyromancy is good against those snake guys. And watch out for which chests you open. Look at their chains, because that's how you can tell if one is a mimic or not.

Also, these two videos are pretty hilarious(they get really good near the halfway mark):




These converted me to the Gravelord Servant covenant.
