Yea. The slowdown is definitely noticeableAmir0x said:it would be perfect if not for the horrifying framerate and occasional shoddy translation errors.
but it's the framerate that is working to limit my enjoyment of the game. It's a masterpiece in all ways but that... but that is a major flaw

Honestly I didn't find the fight very hard at all, only took around 8-10 firebombs if that, so I didn't really feel much success from fighting it fairly. There are much harder and much more victorious moments in the game beyond that stupid asshole.

Any powerful bows in the game? If so where are they? Not a hunter but wouldn't mind having one.

What the hell is wrong with this game??? Friggin HOMING arrows? For real? Game should get 0/10 just because of this part!!!
Roll towards the stairs. Kill the one or both dogs at te top of the stairs. When Capra gets up there drop down and move away and Estus. Then keep luring it up the stairs and getting it to jump down. When he drips down he is stunned for a moment giving you a chance to either drop attack him or Estus.Branson said:

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Haha, and then they went on saying how FFVIII sucked. Yeah I know, I've had to argue with a bunch of these people. Anyway, sorry for the derail!Manmademan said:

ah, Capra demon. the gift that keeps on giving.
There's a shortcut you can open up that should make getting to him a breeze, but fighting him and the camera? you're on your own there
Wow. Contacted Amazon over an hour ago asking if they'd refund me the difference between the old price of the guide and the new price. I explained I knew they didn't have to but that I felt kind of duped for ordering while it was out of stock only to have it cut in price right as they charge me.
Amazon is so ****ing awesome.

Blight is the worst I've seen so far and I'm on a PS3. I didn't notice it so bad once I got down into the bottom of the level, but on the way down it was horrendous is many spots. There's been a few other places here and there but they don't last long that I've had bad framerates effect me.

Anyone know how much more game there is after the

arrival at Anor Londo? That place kind of reeks of "final area" but I'm hoping not

find the ember that allows you to "ascend" weapons to a magic path, make a winged spear +5 and then convert it over to a magic one. is my understanding anyway.

next time, go past the door to the demon and you can open up a shortcut to firelink shrine.

A quick question about upgrading since the wiki and faqs are pretty barren.
In De.S I had a divine halberd which granted regen. There was a limit on how much I could updade my halberd before upgrading it to divine (I belive). Does the same apply to Da.S? i.e. It grants regen and I should not upgrade it beyond a certain point?

Return to Firelink after ringing the bells:
Are any areas in this game 'optional', or is it all required eventually?
Frampt is amazing. Is that Old King Doran's voice I hear!?
That render.

Around 50% dude. Trust me, you'll be surprised to see how much left is opening up when you beat Anor Londo.

+5 from my understanding. Haven't confirmed as the best I have is a +4. But it was +5 in demon's souls. No idea if it grants regen though.

I've killed 5 black knights so far and not a single one has dropped a fucking sword or lance or anything. God damnit.

RE: Capra Demon fight.
I used some lightning powder I found before the fight. I applied it to either a short or broadsword, killed the dogs in one swipe. Stayed really close to Capra and circled him so he wouldn't use his jumping overhead attack. His two handed attack is the only worry at that point but he telegraphs it so you can roll away.

Gaping Dragon?
Just got this "stone greatsword" from those statue knights in the darkroot garden, it is damn near unstoppable. You can use that ability the statue knights have where it binds every enemy in the area so they can barely move. It could make a great PvP weapon for melee characters.
Also, I have not gone far into the area yet, but I can already tell the Catacombs are going to be an absolute Hellhole.

Haha, it's insane. It blew my mind when I realized how I've only had discovered such a small part of the game (when I originally thought I'd had beaten it soon).Amir0x said:
FUCK. I WANNA PLAY THIS GAME. FUCK MY FINGER, IM GONNA GO CUT IT OFF OR SOMETHING.
What happens to the red dragon after the Capra fight is weird...
My guys feels very strong now. Like DS, the leveling and upgrading system in this game is confusing. I took a gamble on upgrading the wing spear, but it's worked out well. I've got it up to +7 and it does about 100 damage per thrust which is enough to take on just about every trash mob. One of the dark knights dropped a sword so I lvled up str/dex to use that and it's my boss/big mob killer.
What stat do you dump in once item reqs are taken care of? I was thinking of just pumping endurance...

So I just have to ask, what percentage of the game is left after Taurus Demon?

Speaking of the Dark Knight Sword... when you're gonna Plunge attack an enemy, make sure to equip it solely for that. It does TONS of damage.Draft said:
