Dark Souls

[Shocker]

Ok, so moved on to Gwyn Lord of Cinder.  I tried light armor but fuggin no go.  So, yes...I went tank.  So, put on the hornet ring and highest armor and parry.  So easy...almost too easy.  I got gud somehow.  Now...NG+...but will see.  

Game is a masterpiece.  Play it.

I realize this means nothing without my final stats.  Will post

Final stats that matter...

Level 86

Vit 35

Attun - 12

End - 31

Str - 37

Dex - 23

Black knight sword +5

Halberd +12

Crystal Halbred +5...breaks easily but fugs up stuff

Longbow +5

Promancy Flame +5

Honestly the Crest Shield was all that was needed

Black Knight Shield is even better (hard to get till late for me)

Havels equipment is amazingly useful get it

Divine Claymore +5. Useful late against skeletons 

So...Black Knight Sword made this easier.  If I had the Black Knight Halbred (never got it) this run would have been easier.

Game is so amazing.

Do not let the difficulty sway you.  This is one the best games out there.

Also...the halbred wepons in this game are nasty.  1 regret was not upgrading that to +15...really awesome

Hardest area...New Londo Ruins..died forever there

Hardest area considering boss...Tomb of the Giants

Easiest area...Taurus Demon

Easiest considered boss...Ash Lake

Hardest enemy overall...Bed of chaos...fug that boss

Most hated area...Painted fuggin world...fug that place

Favorite area...probably Demon Ruins

Best NPC...onion guy

Hardest boss...Bed of Chaos...fug that boss

Enemies that killed me most...mobs...

Most dangerous  enemy...Ballistics...seriously those damn things are serious

Sorry man...the allure of beating the game was tough.  Forgive me.

Why was the final boss so easy?  Let down honestly

86 is pretty high tbh. I think I was around 50 or so the first time I beat Gwyn.

 

Still have the DLC!

Thanks man...what an amazing experience.  Appreciate the walkthrough man!

Damn the NG+ is so calling my name.  But I have 2 and 3 to play.

 

So should I do 2 next or skip to 3?  Appears to be a legit question?

Something is telling me 3 is amazing

2 is definintley worth playing. 2' DLC is also the best in the series.
