| The Dark Souls series inadvertently created one of the best "Hide and Seek" simulators. Posted: 05 Jan 2020 02:50 PM PST Was just pleasantly sitting here thinking over my thousands of hours of playing the incredible series and thought, "You know, some of my favorite moments in the game were when I was invaded and successfully hid from an overpowered invader!"

| A theory about Havel's secret room in Anor Londo Posted: 05 Jan 2020 03:39 PM PST So, Havel's secret room in the Anor Londo Cathedral is hidden behind an illusory wall, right? In there, you find Havel's stuff, and an occult club inside of a mimic. The description on the dark ember reads: Occult weapons were used to hunt the Gods, and are effective against their followers and kin We know that Havel created GMB because of Seath the Scaleless, Gwyn gave Seath power, but Havel didn't trust him. GMB description is: Miracle of Bishop Havel the Rock. Cover body in powerful def. magic coating. Havel the Rock, an old battlefield compatriot of Lord Gwyn, was the sworn enemy of Seath the Scaleless. He despised magic, and made certain to devise means of counteraction. My theory here is that Havel planned to turn on Gwyn, and kept all of his supplies in a room hidden away from Gwyn. Even Gwyndolin didn't know about this room because as you break the illusionary wall to go down there, everything is dark, just like Anor Londo after you break the illusion set by Gwyndolyn. I wasn't able to find this theory from anywhere else, so I'm not sure if I'm the only one who feels this way. Thoughts? [link] [comments] |
| Charcoal drawing I did of Knight Artorias Posted: 05 Jan 2020 08:31 PM PST This was a piece that was done for my friend MattTheRatt on Twitch. It was done using various pieces of charcoal, chalk, some Academia paper, and my fingers! [link] [comments] |

| Going to start DS; Remastered today. Do I need a build? Posted: 06 Jan 2020 02:29 AM PST Got Dark Souls Remastered from my girlfriend for christmas this year and going to make a start on my full Soulsborne playthrough today. Now my question: Do I need to have a build ready before I start playing? Or should I worry about that later/ end-game only? Out of experience from other games (like Elder Scrolls Online for example) choosing the wrong skills/ attributes could mess up your entire build. Thnx in advance! I'm excited to start my journey in the Soulsborne games :) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 05 Jan 2020 01:52 PM PST I quite recently discovered that especially in tomb of the Giants and Blighttown when I aggro some enemies I don't feel like dealing with I take the closest ladder and completely break their pathfinding. I mean, I aggro the big ogres in Blighttown's tunnel from the Valley and just run to the ladder and watch them fall off. Same goes within the well shaft in Blighttown. Thank you ladders.

| Is the Dark Souls world literally layered? Posted: 05 Jan 2020 05:19 AM PST Okay, so I just want to start by saying that, even as far as shower thoughts go, this one is a bit loony. This is going to be a whole lot easier to grasp if you've seen "Nausicaa of the valley of the wind", if you haven't, well, I'll try to explain the scene I'm talking about: In the movie, Nausicaa falls through the seemingly solid ground to a place buried by the ash and sands of time and war. This hidden world looks very much like Ash Lake in that there are countless great trees sprouting into the fog/soil above. Simply put, it's the world before the current world. Now that that's out of the way, here we go... At the start of DS1 we see that the world is a dark & desolate place, with great archtrees piercing through the cracked and dried-up soil. However, I believe that an 'Ash Lake-esque' place existed even back during the events of the dragon war, namely as the lost world that came before, and here's why; The first flame wasn't actually the first flame at all, and the world of dragons and darkness we see in the beginning is simply the dregs of a world corrupted by the continual rekindling of the earlier "first" flame, much like how in DS3, The Ringed City is almost completely covered in ash after Filianore's illusion vanishes, creating the seedbed for a new-new-new(ad infinitum)world all over again, because as we all know, ash is a great fertilizer. I believe that the Ash Lake in the current DS1 timeline (we'll get to convoluted time soon enough) is the world in which the dragon war was fought, and that the world above, Lordran, is the flourishing world that the gods created upon the seedbed that said war wrought. But wait, there's more... Where do dragons and archtrees come from? It's my theory that the dragons in our timeline are the abominable pinnacle of the previous world's humanity's crossbreeding/magical metamorphosis(helluva mouthful, I know), and that that is an integral part in the perpetuation of the corrupted cycle; humanity's light & dark soul and their insatiable want for prolonged life and power... Humans and gods might not be so different after all. And now we come to the hollow humanoid beings who chance upon the new 'first' flame... I think they are simply the part of humanity that didn't achieve dragonification and were left to wander a desolate world as husks of their former selves. The great irony in this is that, the ones who achieved dragonification, immortality and 'everlasting' rule, are the ones to always be cast down first by the people they left to die, whose empty husks are able to accept the lord souls found in the flames and gain enough power to enact their revenge... Which of course leads to the new rulers going mad with power themselves, but hey, perpetuated cycle, right? Now to the archtrees... Okay, so, bear with me here; The archtrees are born out of the corpses of dragons, AKA former humans, fulfilling their part in the corrupted(?) cycle. We get a taste of this in DS2 where we bear witness to the corpses of giants being turned into trees. In pretty much every mythology of our world, giants and trolls are magical beings with a close relationship to the earth, and dragons, magical beings with unstable (everlasting my ass) physiologies (often depicted as shapeshifters) have their cells revert back to the most natural state upon their deaths; becoming one with the world, AKA plantlife AKA trees. Some great examples of this are; Fafnir, a greedy dwarf who transformed into a dragon in order to guard his treasure, who also spewed poison upon the lands to keep anyone from approaching his lair. Sound familiar? Greedy humans/humanoids who transform into dragons and spew poison upon the lands? Ymir, a primordial giant whose various body parts and innards led to the creation of the soil, trees, sky and oceans? Hmmmmm? Ring a bell, anyone? Now comes the final piece; convoluted time, also the one I'm most skeptical about. As the world shrinks, ruins upon ruins from many different eras pile up high like great landfills of history, filling the voids and canyons of the world, creating a smooth foundation for the ashes of the next cycle to settle and thrive. And that's all from me, folks! I hope you've enjoyed my first post and try not to poke too many holes in it, it is Dark Souls after all, the game where there're a lot more theories than factual lore. Cheers! [link] [comments] |
| I beat Dark Souls for the first time! Posted: 05 Jan 2020 02:20 PM PST My first ever game in the Souls series and I just finished it today, beat Manus and Gwyn. I'm very happy, the game was a magical experience, and I feel this feeling of accomplishment. Anyhow, I love this game, and I can't wait to start my ng+ play through, I'm also waiting for my ps4 controller to come so I can start the other games in the series, since I have ds1 on switch :p [link] [comments] |
| I finally defeated Quelaag after 14 tries! Posted: 05 Jan 2020 09:50 PM PST These attempts consisted of me running back and forth from undead burg to farm souls from the drake bridge and then buying magic sword and shield and then using about 10 humanities, one after each death after trying to defeat Quelaag solo until I gave up and summoned naked sack lady and even then she did nothing, but after rolling and hitting her and running away, I finally killed her! [link] [comments] |
| Black Knight Greatsword Viable for entire game? Posted: 05 Jan 2020 12:31 PM PST So I got a black knight greatsword drop from the one in undead burg. I got 18 dex and just enough str to 2 hand. I upgraded it to +2, is it usable for the entire game? I'm at sens fortress right now. [link] [comments] |
| Where do you frequently end your builds or runs? Posted: 06 Jan 2020 12:12 AM PST I have a bunch of characters that I start, progress through part of the game and then leave them. For me its SL 20~40 and Anor Londo. Once I can warp my focus is on the online aspect and PvE is usually over unless I need a specific item. Do you do that as well or do you beat Gwyn with every character? [link] [comments] |
| Dark Souls was a game I feared, now I finally beat it. Posted: 05 Jan 2020 05:31 PM PST First time playing Dark Souls. I took a long break from gaming and this is the only game that kept my interest all the way through. Beat Gwyn first try. That felt absolutely amazing. Now it put me back in the cell and I'm starting over. Should I move on to Dark Souls 2 and 3 before starting over in Dark Souls? It was a great ride. Cheers, everyone. [link] [comments] |
| Why am I am doing laughable damage Posted: 06 Jan 2020 01:40 AM PST I just beat Quelaag by doing just about 30 dmg per hit and am now in sens fortress where it is almost completely impossible to beat those snake things without backstabbing. (I have not played another souls game before but I have beaten the shit out of bloodborne and I would describe my dmg output like playing with a completely unapgraded weapon in that game) I have a +5 longsword and 26 strength and 15 dex. Am I missing something or doing completely wrong? [link] [comments] |
| Noob question about the LI shortcut Posted: 06 Jan 2020 01:16 AM PST I defeated Quelaag, rang the second bell, found her sister, and fed her 30 humanity one at a time. My question is, How do I get to where the secret door is if the elevator does not function? I do not mind doing a suicide run, as I have not consumed any of my hard humanities other then to get the required 30 to feed her and achieve rank 2 in the covenant. I really want to save my Sunbro, but not sure if there is another requirement to unlock the elevator. [link] [comments] |
| Summoning my friend in dark souls Posted: 06 Jan 2020 01:02 AM PST Is there a proven method that will let me summon my friend? We are playing on the ps4. We have a password, we have both NAT-type 2, the host is human, the boss of the area is alive. We are also both the same lvl. We are in the area after the taurus demon. We tryed and waited alot but we cant see our summon signs. Thank you in advance for the answers <3 [link] [comments] |
| Why is accessing the DLC completely devoid of logic? Posted: 05 Jan 2020 06:54 PM PST How is anyone suposed to know how to access the DLC without looking it up?It makes 0 sense.First you have to kill the hydra and if you dont reload the game and go back there you wont see nothing,you have to restart to see it.Nobody is gonna find that by themselves.Also why do you have to get the pendant from a random ass golem is the dukes archives? And then you have to fucking get back to the waterfall?What?How is anyone suposed to figure that out?Am I missing something or is this just terrible game design? At least they could have made it that the golem spawned right after the hydra was killed and the portal opened next to the blue golem but even soo it makes no sense ¯_(ツ)_/¯ [link] [comments] |
| Just got to the Dungeon bonfire in Oolacile. How much of the DLC is remaining? Posted: 06 Jan 2020 03:55 AM PST |
| Posted: 05 Jan 2020 01:08 PM PST I actually fear pinwheel on ng+7 i feel discomfort going into the boss fight which is refreshing. Nvm hes dead. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 05 Jan 2020 07:46 PM PST Mine are: .Bonewheel Skeletons are easy. Get a greatshield, level endurance a bit, and don't take on more than 3 at a time. .Sanctuary Guardian is one of the easiest late game bosses. Most of his attacks can be easily dodged with a few fast rolls, although I can see how timing them could be hard for some (never died to him, although the lesser sanctuary guardians are hard) .The demon ruins aren't unfinished, they're just smaller than other areas in the game, same with darkroot basin (lost izalith is still a half baked soggy cake though) .Centipede demon is easy. Get an ultra greatsword, hit his arm when launched at you, kill the arm, after you cut it, then quickly put on the orange charred ring. It's a beyond easy fight after that .Anor Londo is overrated .Solaire is... just kidding, I would never insult the great sun bro .Tomb of the giants would be one of the worst areas in the game if it had normal lighting (might not be controversial) Anyways, what controversial opinions do you guys have? The more controversy, the better. [link] [comments] |
| I beat great wolf sif on my first try (first playthrough) Posted: 05 Jan 2020 08:35 PM PST Well i feel like an asshole now, especially when he was limping and even fell over. But i guess i had to do it :( [link] [comments] |
| First-time completionist ranking all DS bosses from worst to best. Posted: 05 Jan 2020 03:48 PM PST I had previously made a list ranking bosses from easiest to hardest. But now I will rank from my least favorite to my favorite. My rankings account for fairness, difficulty, entertainment, lore, and setup. I will separate my rank for Stray Demon and Demon Firesage this round.
This is my list of all bosses from worst t best. Let me know your opinions and whether you agree or disagree. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 05 Jan 2020 06:34 PM PST Is there a bonfire closer to the bed of chaos? The run to this boss is the most unpleasant and excruciating thing I've ever done in a video game, any way to make it less bad? [link] [comments] |
