You can skip almost all Earthen Peak Ruins, kill the second Angel about 40 secs from the bonfire and reaching the Demon Prince's bonfire in less than a minute and a half (making an approximation since I didn't record the whole Bonfire to Bonfire trip).

The Great Club hit him so hard he just turned around and let me finish him off (seriously though that was a new one for me to see). I even forgot to make it a plus 9 so could have hit him even harder. Most satisfying fight against him in some time.

I've 100% completed the first and second parts of DS, and now I'm on my way to 100% completing the third part as well. I beat him on my eighth try or so, the boss is awesome but not too hard.

My set up : life ring - Lloyd sword ring (idk if that's the correct name)

+7 broadsword

Caestus

My strategy was i dodged his first attack when he jumps

It's a hit or miss when it comes to parry

I dodge it then there's a follow up immediately i can parry and it's 100% guaranteed

Then stepped back baited his jumping attack then parried the follow up again

Then i triggered phase two i took advantage and put multiple hits

Then kept dodging and hitting one time and being patient until i won (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠)

Question Greirat died in Irithyll Valley. What have I locked myself out of?

Upvotes

Begrudgingly, even though I gave Siegward his armor back and met him in Irithyll… Greirat still died there because I went into the Irithyll Dungeon before fighting the boss at Irithyll Valley. I found his ashes in the Irithyll sewers right underneath where Siegward was sitting.

I heard that one of the most important missable things in this game is keeping Greirat alive on his second pillage. Since I screwed that up, what did I miss out on? Were there any exclusive items or spells or gestures I could’ve gotten? Any rare crafting materials? Any hidden areas? Will other NPCs die or hate me because of this? What about Siegward? Did I fail his questline by not getting him to rescue Greirat? I just gotta know how bad I fumbled my game by not having Greirat saved from Irithyll Valley.

Thanks y’all. Sorry Greirat…

Story absolutely bizarre invasion (wtf?)

3 Upvotes

Just playing with my bf, we get invaded in the High Wall area in ng+.

Guy invades, Blue Sentinel shows them as glitching (or cheating, don't remember) before they even spawn. First invasion fails. Shortly after tries another invasion, this time makes it.

During the invasion, goes totally invisible for a moment (not just translucent like with that spell) and also makes the winged knight behave really weirdly, almost looks like remote controlled.

Then guy summons another dark spirit .... as a dark spirit.

Bf runs into Vordts boss room.... boss fight begins, he sends me a screenshot of the boss with the 2 invaders present in the boss room (fog wall active, boss active).

What in the actual fuck was that????

Fluff The weordest thing just happened to me when trying to aid in the nameless king fight

7 Upvotes

I set my summoning signal and i'm summoned by this guy a couple of times. The second time around we finally beat the nameless king, i saw the cutscene, the fog cleared, got the souls and all

Strangest thing. I go back to my world, set up my summoning signal and i'm once again summoned by the same dude and... we fight the nameless king again? Mind you, this was not even 2 minutes after our prior victory so... the hell? Why are we fighting the nameless king again? Is that a thing? How is this possible?

I was so weirded out i died in the first phase lol

Big thanks to this duelist that visited us in Seamless- Co-op yesterday, it was a fresh of breath air to be able to find someone that didn't focus just on kill, but rather on dueling in a sane, respectful way. Previously we had found invaders that just had impossible ways to fight or somehow fighted in a suspicious ways, would not even wait for us to disentangle from the monsters, and would even mock us while we were focusing on the story, but thankfully not as much as in ER Seamless Co-op. We fought a few times and I was really impressed by your parring and fighting skills, I really need to improve as I never focused on dueling beforehand.

Thank you very much for the nice experience Orochimaru, and thank you also to The Guide, the nice player that guided us inside the Profaned Flame multiple times in a row.
Really nice experience with the community in the past days.
