hit 40 vitality and 40 endurance, get enough stats to wield your claymore and upgrade it to lightning so you don't need stats to do damage, stay at that lower level for now. Farm a tankload of souls, upgrade your weapons you want fully THEN upgrade your dex stat

Okay, also when I'm ingame how to I check the stats I need to wield a weapon? Like should I be able to 1H the claymore as soon as I get it?

Haha im doing it now actually.

Sick, look forward to you coming back

Trying my best to do a run with dual bucklers, got Sif down a few days back, just gets more and more shitty from here on.

Going to start off with my bucklers and probably get Grass crest + spiked shield (assuming it drops...) get myself a good set of poise gear, and then try to run NG+ without dodging or killing any enemies that dont need to die, just running directly past them and doing bonfire sprints and shield bashing everything in my path out of the way.

Not keen on the PVP any more as the lag is shitty 90% of the time and people invading me when im trying to do stuff gets annoying at the best of times, just trying to do stupid build runs/speed runs is keeping me amused.

Impose Sooo I can't get past +5 Claymore nor can I put Lightning on it?

 

[Mosp]

He's clearly trying to get Mosp in here. (Sorry, just did it for fun, but it would be great if you actually happen to play this game too).

Lol I actually do play this game but only made 1 character and I'm currently towards the end of the game but I've been farming and doing various other things just for fun.

Haha I know right? Im honestly as far with the new char I created last night as I am with my 18 hour character lol

I consider Dark Souls the best game ever created for the xbox. Original or 360. The only game better than it of all time to me is Ocarina of Time.
The story is amazing, and the combat is what any RPG on the xbox should hope to attain.

I can only help others to enjoy a game thats so amazing.

The depths would be before Anor Londo. Did you go to blighttown from the depths or did you take the shortcut from New Londo? If you're at fat and skinny right now you might as well just kill them and get the lordvessel so you can warp.

Shortcut, I'm NEVER doing blight town the long way EVER again, EVER EVER.

Yeah I should try, I do like NO damage though because I havent leveled up my str or dex at all

Is this the lightning spear guy? Pikachu and Snorlax specialize in lightning def so....... lol Anyway, you don't need to go through the depths..just go through the very beginning and get that treasure chest next to the butcher like Lethal Legend says. Bam you can go to +10.

Yeah I know, but if I'm at +10 I think I'll still be doing shit damage to them. I'm using a claymore at +5 atm on this character.

My lightning spear toon just beat O&S actually

Real quick is this PSN or XBL that you're playing on? My offer to help people still stands, system pending, of course.

Im on XBL , the system that you don't play on.

It's all good, imma figure something out. Maybe I'll just do fire instead of lightning? Unless lightning is that much better

My suggestion is lightning. Until you get good at stocking up humanity, lightning will better suit your purpose for most pve and will help better in pvp.

Okay cool.

What happens when you stack more humanity? I remember reading something about it last night, does it boost your resist to elements or something?

It increases your curse resistance. But I was referring to how it boosts attack power of chaos weapons(the next level beyond fire ascension). It maxes at 10 held humanity I believe. Some sorcery is also made more powerful.
