It's only 30%, I barely notice and I hard get invaded anyway. What else can I do with those 80 embers?

I can't sleep, so I'm starting my Pyro build.
SL1 Run: managed to defeat Aldrich and the Dancer (yay) today
Aldrich - He's not as hard as Pontiff and Dancer but since I managed to do
and the normal boss in a row I uploaded it anyway
Dancer - I nailed phase one but phase two was a mess, I was really really lucky (and chugging Estus like hell). Barbed Straight Sword + Carthus Rouge helped immensely.

Aldrich from Anri's quest

Nice job, I'm still stuck on here in my run. But then again you got hit like 5 times by attacks that would've instakilled me. I need to try some more with a bleed buff tho, seems useful.
I had Speckled Stone Plate and Lloyd's Shield Ring for defense. The other two rings were Carthus Milkring (since the Barbed Sword requires 11 DEX) and Lloyd's Sword Ring. Staying always at max health was the only way to survive most of her attack since Lloyd's Shield kicks in. The Artorias fanboys set helps with good Magic/Fire defense as well but not much I'd wager
I must be unlucky because I get invaded a few minutes after killing a boss. 30% is pretty substantial. Dark I was the best system for me; I never had to deal with invasions or nerfed hp and I still got to play online.
Armor is for geeks.
I'm glad he kept trying to parry the Greatsword guys after failing to do so about a dozen times. Sigh.
Facing off with multiple powerful enemies at once is probably harder than a 1v1 with a boss.
That's strange... I've gotten summoned there multiple times waiting at the bonfire in the middle of the area.

I'm currently following a checklist guide to try and get as much stuff as I can in one playthrough. However I'm a bit confused about something regarding Anri and Yuria.
Am I right in that I have to choose between finishing Anri's sidequest or going for the Usurpation of Fire ending that Yoel/Yuria allow you to get? If so, any suggestions on what I should go for? I'm guessing the Usurpation of Fire ending, as an ending seems more significant that a sidequest. But do you get anything good at the end of Anri's sidequest?

Probably as a result of a normal red invasion. Sometimes there are Aldrich and reds there. A normal Aldrich invasion does not spawn a Blue. I've tested this for over an hour.
He's way into exploring so he hasn't gone to upgrading anything. He does that sometimes.

You forget things when you're stoned.
Yea that's it, if I'm in someone's world as a faithful and they have a blue and a red already there, the blue just needs to beat the red to leave the world.
The beast is great because it punishes us for trying the hug the ass/belly strategy that we use for every big enemy in the Souls series. Too bad they didn't implement such attacks for big bosses in the game. It was a brilliant idea sort of wasted on just one enemy.

Invading at the High Wall with those first five orbs you can get sure is a hoot... It's nothing but legit gank squads comprised of three or more scaled down end-game characters with super badass gear and crazy spells. Thankfully I was able to secure my Pale Tongue with my last orb, the rest of my invasions were completely unwinnable situations.
Despite all that armour hosts and phantoms are still afraid to approach reds though, lol.

Just invaded a guy at lvl 21 at the second bonfire. Guy had a friend with him with the Mirra mask and a massive black axe and havel's sheild. No thank you
Edit: Second guy had two friends, a sunbro and anotehr with Patches' shield and the butcher knife. This sucks, at least let me invade people around my own level and gear?
See above, this is crap :lol

No upgrades at all to my uchi.
I got hit by that once, I don't feel so bad now.
Ok so I'm guessing they are players with +3 weapons just taking invasions from lower weapon level players just to be mean.
I've seen graphical "bugs" quite a few times, but this one is particularly egrigious. When you enter the room with, if you turn around and look above the entrance, there are a ton of completely untextured stones as part of the wall.Wolnir's goblet
Those aren't stones though, those are marshmallows. He keeps them stocked up for whenever he has the urge to make smores.

I was a dark phantom teaming up with another dark and a faithful servant against a host. He was very good. All I did was block the ladder while he was dancing with the beasts. He kept turning invisible and they lost track of him but they always found him when he started shooting arrows at me. The faithful servant was on top of me tracking to get down and the other dark below me trying to get away from the host. Eventually the beasts got him.
I love this game.
Probably. Wasted all but one orb, but I'm getting the proper one very soon.

I finished my tongues with the Aldrich faithfuls. Tons of support there and good ambush spots.

I have 65 cracked orbs. I haven't used a single one.

Nice music! Is that a cover? It seems familiar.
Luck builds are most definitely hollow. Unless you use anri's sword exclusively, the hollow infusion allows you to take any weapon and have it scale off luck, the extra 5 luck points you get for being hollow is not worth throwing away just cause you dont like looking frail imo...you can use the rings form Yurai to look normal, if that's your gripe. I suppose not being able to hire two phantoms is a gripe some may have, but I never hire help, the most I need is one to hire the NPC to forward their story....and otherwise I only offer assistance.
Nope! 100% original thanks for the comment! I suppose it has a little bit of Eric Clapton "LAyla" influence, but I made the baseline first and then the melody jsut fit nicely overtop.
You have heard it before if you watch SOuls TV, OOziee used it to background his wall of fame. I also used it on more than several of my own videos, like my how to do a vanquisher seal run early etc. that video showcases all my music to date in one video.

I still find it ridiculous that From doesn't have a Darkmoon automatically be summoned when invaded by a Faithful, regardless of having Way of Blue equipped or not.
Lore wise they're supposed to be sworn enemies, so
