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?

halp?
The Painted World of Aramis
dragon standing on the bridge... but I can't seem to progress any further there? It seems to be another dragon sitting there but hitting him doesn't deal any damage and he doesn't attack me.

Oh I already beat the stage a long time ago, I'm just wondering if I'm doing something wrong on that specific partWren said:
Yep and it still gives you +25 HP even after 30 VIT. It's a really good stat in DkS.Zzoram said:
Wren said:
Level cap is when all stats are 99. Yes you can max all stats in time, but since each level costs more souls than the last, it's highly unrealistic to do in less than a year without glitch exploits.
Most people plan their character builds to stop around SL 120 for PvP reasons, plus it gets extremely tedious to farm souls beyond SL 120 anyways even in NG+.

There are probably a few hours of idle time in there, and I farmed the forest quite a bit because I'm SL74 now.

Man, I was expecting Wolfie from the trailers to be an epic boss fight. That was the easiest one yet. 
Zzoram said:
Ah ok then, I guess that'd good and bad news. I initially started building my character around strength and endurance so I could wield a sword I found, but then I picked up some neat spells and started pumping points into magic for them leaving my character kind of mismatched. At least with enough time I'll be able to build out of my rut.
Also has anyone had any luck with the dragon covenant? I have yet to invade any worlds using it, and I've never seen it pop up in mine.

about 15 hours in... this game is sooo goood!!
Somehow, I know I can play this game forever before being compelled to play Zelda SS or Uncharted 3. So addicted!
Rolling a mage, lvl 27ish, 60 soul arrows, 12 heavy soul arrows.
After the gargoyles, for some reason I went to the catacombs still being lv 12. Got trolled pretty much all along
Back tracked to Undead burg, cheesed
with heavy soul arrows haha!
Later on, got ambushed by
.
Also cheesed Ca
, thanks to a message hanging up there!
Going into the Depths...
Any advice as good weapons for my "battle" mage? I initially wanted to make some magic or enchanted weapons, but as I read here, going fire or lightning should be better? I don't intend to go higher than 44 INT, and am willing to pump STR to 16 for the eagle shield later.

I do not recommend anyone watching the latest channel update by DSP. It single-handedly made me un-subscribe and I've been an hardcore subscribed since 2008-9.
I didn't have trouble hitting it. I kept hitting it for 5 minutes and he didn't die... so something is wrong. A bug, most likely.luka said:

To keep my Str at 10 and Dex at 12 I opted to make an Enchanted Bandit's Knife. It's pretty fun to back stab and parry riposte with it and the Spider Shield.
Elemental weapons are fine but I think an Enchanted +5 weapon will do more equal or more damage if you're going to have 44 INT anyways.

I saw a DSP video where he fought the lightning gimp below Andrei and was complaining about how the game was so cheap and it would take pure luck to beat the boss. However, each time he fought it he clearly got better because he was learning it's patterns, he just didn't recognize that he was doing that and that's why he started to win. Then he made some lame comment about how this game is for poor kids who need a game to last a whole month, not for people who have tons of other games they want to get through.

Yeah, I could see a sorcerer having some difficulty there. All his attacks were easily blockable and barely cut my stamina bar. He didn't have much HP either. Beat him first try.
Those cats earlier killed me about 5 times though. :lol
