Damn, this video was made in November 2011, that's only 2 months after the release of this game! I did not expect anyone to be as far into this game without any guides at the time of this video's creation.
You know what I like about Vamos? The guy's past the point of being considered hollow, yet his manliness expresses itself beyond the very scope of complete unlife itself. He even went & forged himself a blacksmith's beard, & went so far as to coat each of his bones in a metal, so they wouldn't rot away by air exposure. The next time you go down into the catacombs, take a second to look, REALLY LOOK, at this epitome of "Fuck you Undeath" manhood. Vamos, the best irate blacksmith in fiction.
nope if your a beginner. like first tie playing then yea. if you started a new game and beated it atleast once but in a new profile then no. maybe an hour or more but less then 10. because one thing is for sure. you will for sure get good through sweat and tears
ArchAngel #11457 Depends... To get the chaos ember you have be in lost izalith which means you have to get the lord vessel. That can take quite awhile, especially for me because I spend time co-oping and farming for balder swag swords and shit on my new playthroughs. So I get to Anor Londo around 10 hours in. 15 to get the chaos ember and the two red slabs. And I've beaten the game about 4 or 5 times.
You don't need the lord vessel to get the chaos ember. When your done with quelagg you can go to demon ruins and a bunch of bull demons will be there. Just kill them and boom you got the ember. Only downside is you will need to die to get it :P
The slimes in the Depths are my favourite farming spot, actually, for both Green Titanite Shards and Large Titanite Shards. Very easy, very quick, very safe. Run out of the bonfire room, cut down the torch hollow, run to the other end of the hall to make the slimes fall down and kill the other torch hollow in the passage, run back into the middle of the slimes, cast Chaos Storm, reap rewards, repeat. Plus if I want to farm Humanity as well, I can run downstairs and butcher the rats while I'm at it.
ArcaneAzmadi . YEESSSSS!!! This farming route is amazing!! Ido exactly what you do but after I kill the rats I go and farm the basilisk for their eyes of death. 4 different rare item fark run!! Many many times I'll get 4 of each on a run 4 green tite, 4 large tite, 4 to 6 humanity, and 4 eyes of death. I got my hard and soft humanity up to 99 very fast that way!!!
I LOVE HOW I GET DOWN HERE I START TALKING TO HIM A SKELETON COMES OUT BEHIND ME SLICES HIM AND ME I CANT MOVE HE HAS ME CORNERED I TURN AROUND TO ENGAGE I HIT THE BLACKSMITH BY COMPLETE ACCIDENT HE FUCKING ATTACKS
Since this video seems particularly popular (probably because of the back and forth trolling lol!) does anybody need/want guides for the DLC content? I figure there's already lots of videos by now, though, so not sure if it will be worth doing.
You dont need to be chaos servant 2+ to open the door, if you approach from the back you can open it as well. Also, personally i farm the red titanite chunks from the flower pot monsters
+5 fire and +0 chaos have just about the same amount of fire dmg, chaos just hast a little bit (usually not more then 5%) less physical dmg so even with just 2 humanity you'll allready do more dmg
I did the same thing on my first playthrough. I didn't want to throw that out there, though, because some people on youtube get irate at video makers when things don't go their way.
It's pretty good for the price (15 bucks). It's more challenging, in my opinion. Also, the DLC has some advantages like easier access to certain materials like Blue Titanite Slabs. Besides that, there are some really good weapons, sorceries, and pyromancy spells that you can get from the DLC areas.
Wow they editing is really good and stylized on these videos, especially the info text. I already knew where the Chaos ember was but couldn't remember the Fire one. Thanks.
Hello iam New to dark souls the skeletons always kill me quickly and easily iam a beginner so please don't laugh at my question how do you get the skeletons to stay down dead like the rest of the zombie like caricatures I have racing the 2 bells and have the lighting spear but they are still difficult to kill is there a better way it.looks like you have a good handle on this game so I feel confident in getting the right answer thank you
+Merlyn Potter There are necromancers in the area that revive the skeletons. Once you kill those guys the skeletons can be killed. The necromancers are the guys that shoot fireballs and are wielding that skull lantern thingy.
Use a divine weapon like Astora's Straight Sword. You can get that along with Dragon Crest Shield near the sleeping dragon in the Valley of Drakes. Or you can find and kill off the Mages that are controlling them. The skeletons won't come back life if you kill them after that.
Your pretty good at doing guides, youlle be surprised how many guide videos there that just dont explain the HOW TO part which basically is the whole point of it, anyways great vid!!
so idk if your answer has been answered yet kinda old comment but his build in this video is called a vitality dump you get the stats to use a certain elemental weapon usually a katana and dump every other spare point into vitality works insanely well
You can get regular Titanite Slabs as a rare drop from the Darkwraiths in New Londo, I suggest equipping the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring before trying though.
as for farming shards and chunks: the easiest way to require shards and chunks is by farming the black knights at the kiln of the first flame (before the end boss) the knight with the greatsword will drop red chunks and the knight with the axe will drop blue chunks if you haven't joined the darkwraiths you can talk to kingseeker framt at the firelink shrine and make him chew the blue and red (?) chunks into green titanite shards this method is fairly easy and cheap in the end game
I just meant to say LoK isn't as obscure as people think, I do agree that it is a shame that no-one ever talks about it often though. And yeah I'll be interested to see that, I think I'll be making my own list too. :)
can every weapon that goes to level 10 be a special weapon? because i go to level 10 with the scythe and gave it prinscilla's sould and got her scythe?
Hey what bow/arrows are you using? and i love you're videos they are helping me so much/ going to help me :D. I just got into dark souls and im kinda struggling on my first playthrough but i feel that these will help, so keep it up :).
Fully upgraded magic , Devine, fire etc.. weapon if dropped by a friend in online mode will this unlocks the achievement? Or I have to upgrade it myself?
For the 4 worms there is actually a spot smackdown in the middle between the two farthest in which you can shoot them all from and don't have to run by at all.
after you help Siegmeyer in Lost Izalith she will be back in firelink again and says she found her dad and he has gone again. then you have to go to Ash lake and she gives you a titanite slab! but a bit of a sad ending I wont spoil.
one is from laurentius, the other is from the egg guy near quelaags sister. You have to have the egg on your head and he will give you a cure and if you talk to him again the pyro glove.
I went to vamos already and when I came back, I used the shortcut, many skeletons were chasing me and they eneded up killing him, am I just out of luck or is there something I can do
I'm really confused about what requires what.If I want a chaos zweihander (cough cough) what do I need to make it?I have a +5 Zweihander,and I obviously need the chaos ember,but do I need to have a fire zweihander first?Do I need red slabs?
Pretty funny that you asked this, because I had just made a Chaos Zwei last night. :P Anyways, keep your Zwei at +5. You'll need Vamos, the Skeleton Blacksmith, to Ascend it to a Fire Zweihander. To do this, you'll need a green titanite shard, and more green titanite shards to get it to a +5 Fire Zweihander. Once you get it to +5 Fire and once you have the Chaos Ember, you'll need Vamos to ascend it to a Chaos Zweihander using a Red Titanite Chunk, and you'll need more Red Titanite Chunks to get it to a +4 Chaos Zweihander. Finally, to get it to +5, you'll need a Red Titanite Slab. I hope I explained this clearly, because writing it down like that makes it sound like a very long process.
At +5 you can make a divine weapon. You need a divine ember for that, It's at the top of the stairs at the end of the bridge where you killed the moonlight butterfly. For lighting you make it +10 and go to the giant blacksmith in Anor londo. You need I Think green titanite for it, You can buy it from him aswell for quite a low price. For fire (Not reccomended if you don't have no divine weapon) Head into the Catacombs down from where the graveyard is near Firelink. Light the bonfire. And
Concerning which upgrade path is the best... it really depends on the enemy you're fighting and your own play-style. For example, fire is almost useless in blighttown and against any enemy that is fire-based, but does INSANE amounts of damage in the darkroot garden/oolicile areas. And divine weapons destroy the enemies in the tomb of the giants, but doesn't do as much against the enemies in anor londo (still does a good bit). It really just depends on the build you're going for and the weapon you're upgrading.
Yeah, good luck maxing out a fire/chaos weapon before you get to there, seeing as you can't max out any weapon paths other then the normal +15 until you beat O&S. Better just to use a + 10 regular or magic +5 for blighttown. Or a holy weapon, or hell, just use a black knight weapon or the dragon weapons. there are plenty of options for you. Also, ever tried using magic weapons in the dukes archives? A lot less effective than chaos or holy.
How do you use a "magic slot"? Do you mean that you attune spells such as pyromancy and cast them at you're enemies, because I was talking about WEAPONS upgraded to the magic path, not casting spells at your foes. Casting spells is quite effective indeed.
You need to have saved dusk, killed the blue respawning golem near the first bonfire in the dukes archives and killed the hydra in the lower lvls of the forest area. Head to the place where the golden golem was in the forest cave and you should be able to get to the location
So which are the fastest weapons (swing) for the fire path with descent damage? I have 2 Balder Slide Swords so I was thinking of modifying one of them. Any suggestions?
so i still have a qeustion i have upgraded my halbert to +5 and gave my large flame ember to vamos but i can't transfrom my halbert into a fire weapon i'm a bit confused if any one can help me out that will be great
Then keep going from the bridge till you find the second bonfire in the catacombs. I Say wait till you have the Lordvessel so you can warp back to firelink And the black smith is down the stairs in one of the doors. Make sure you roll onto the ledge since it is really dark. There you go!
@BlackHolyday24 The Darmoon bow, after killing Gwyndolin you have to ascend a random +10 bow with the soul of Gwyndolin and it will make this bow (strongest bow in the game)
It can, but i would'nt recommend it. Going the elemental path removes stat scaling, and the painting guardian sword has awesome dex scaling. you're much better off going the standard path, and putting stat points in to dex. That way you get the awesome dex scaling AND you can enchant the weapon with magic weapon, or sunlight blade etc... on top of the normal damage. If you go the elemental route you end up with split damage, which looks good on paper, but the results are usually quite underwhelming. For reference, I have a +15 great scythe and a +5 dragonslayer spear(it's a boss weapon, so that's its maxed out upgrade). and at my stat allocation, they both have an attack rating of 485, so it seems like they should be equal, or at worst similar in damage output. but the fact is the dragonslayer spear(which has split damage with lightning) does roughly 60% of the damage that the great scythe does. And that's just without enchantment. With sunlight spear added on to my great scythe, it does well over twice as much damage as the dragonslayer spear(which, like all split damage weapons, can't be enchanted).
I ascended it to its maxed out level and the bird said "no no" I tried quitting and loading anyway and I've got nothing, was I not suppose to max the pyro hand out?
Timothy Weston correct; you have to ascend it but not upgrade it any further otherwise he won't take it. You can always pick up another pyromancy flame, though
after you kill the silver knights for him he goes back to firelink shrine and will give you a miracle (emit force) then he goes to blightown near the entrance to great hollow, and will ask for some mosses. give them to him and he gives you his shield. then he goes to lost izalith.
+Yoriko Arran Use the fog ring or sorcery and get ton of health,occasionally get on earth and heal,you can heal on lava with humanities too but takes a lot of em and it takes longer to do that way.
TC195 I managed to do it without dying, black knight armour has got the best fire resistance of all armours so I combined that with gold hemmed robes and equipped the ring of favour and protection along with the red stoneplate ring.
Yeah Dark Souls and Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver are in my top 4 favourite games of all time along with BioShock and The Darkness, but it's not true that no one knows about LoK Soul Reaver is actually one of the best selling game series of all time (look up "List of best-selling Playstation games" on Wikipedia, it's in the top half of the list).

OK bro
And this only takes 79 hours to do...
nope if your a beginner. like first tie playing then yea. if you started a new game and beated it atleast once but in a new profile then no. maybe an hour or more but less then 10. because one thing is for sure. you will for sure get good through sweat and tears

I was thinking the same thing.

I LOVE HOW I GET DOWN HERE
I START TALKING TO HIM
A SKELETON COMES OUT BEHIND ME
SLICES HIM

I CANT MOVE
HE HAS ME CORNERED
I TURN AROUND TO ENGAGE
I HIT THE BLACKSMITH BY COMPLETE ACCIDENT
HE FUCKING ATTACKS
go to the tower where u ring the first bell and buy this thing that reverses all your sins then he will stop attacking
"Vamos" means "let's go" in Spanish
in portuguese too
Same in portuguese
It also means “We are going”.
i think we all know that. Dora been teaching this decades ago
@Crimson bruh,im from spain and here dora teaches english
at 0:18 it irritated me more than it should have that you didn't get that loot -_-
SirGrimbo 🤣🤣🤣 grab everything!
That armor jingling is so calming.
Since this video seems particularly popular (probably because of the back and forth trolling lol!) does anybody need/want guides for the DLC content? I figure there's already lots of videos by now, though, so not sure if it will be worth doing.
Kalameet guide? All the other ones are terrible but hopefully you will make a good one
You dont need to be chaos servant 2+ to open the door, if you approach from the back you can open it as well. Also, personally i farm the red titanite chunks from the flower pot monsters
THIS is how you make a guide, for anything. Great job man... Thanks.
Whats the difference between Chaos Fire and normal Fire?
And if I have a +5 Fire weapon how much humanity do I Need so my Chaosfireblade is just as equaly good?
+5 fire and +0 chaos have just about the same amount of fire dmg, chaos just hast a little bit (usually not more then 5%) less physical dmg so even with just 2 humanity you'll allready do more dmg
what the... someone actually made a GOOD guide video...? you sir, are now one of my favorites on youtube.
I did the same thing on my first playthrough. I didn't want to throw that out there, though, because some people on youtube get irate at video makers when things don't go their way.

That awesome moment when you discover some of the best Dark Souls guides... released nearly a year ago. :O
Nearly a year ago
That was the only video that i saw with honest tags , and GREAT guide btw. Thanks for the help.
does a weapon have to be +5 or +10 to make it a fire weapon?
+5 :)
Leonard Inkret
thank you! :)
One of the best walkthroughs i've seen. If I didn't know, I would have assumed that this walkthrough was made by FromSoftware or Namco...
I think most of us have finished the dlc.
But what would be great is if someone could show us short vids on the secrets of the dlc. Great videos btw.
Wow they editing is really good and stylized on these videos, especially the info text. I already knew where the Chaos ember was but couldn't remember the Fire one. Thanks.
Awesome. I'll totally think about getting it then! Thanks for the help, I hope you're looking forward to Dark Souls 2 as much as I am.
Hello iam New to dark souls the skeletons always kill me quickly and easily iam a beginner so please don't laugh at my question how do you get the skeletons to stay down dead like the rest of the zombie like caricatures I have racing the 2 bells and have the lighting spear but they are still difficult to kill is there a better way it.looks like you have a good handle on this game so I feel confident in getting the right answer thank you
you'll need to find the divine ember and make a divine weapon is the easiest way, there's a dark souls wiki to help more
+Merlyn Potter There are necromancers in the area that revive the skeletons. Once you kill those guys the skeletons can be killed. The necromancers are the guys that shoot fireballs and are wielding that skull lantern thingy.
kill the necromancers or use a Divine weapon
The divine ember is kind of late in the game.
Use a divine weapon like Astora's Straight Sword. You can get that along with Dragon Crest Shield near the sleeping dragon in the Valley of Drakes. Or you can find and kill off the Mages that are controlling them. The skeletons won't come back life if you kill them after that.
Even though I knew all this, still a really good guide to use if you dont
2:20 i almost had a heart attack when i walked down this peaceful corridor and these worms appeared O:
Lol hahahaha
what sort of arrow u were using??
Your pretty good at doing guides, youlle be surprised how many guide videos there that just dont explain the HOW TO part which basically is the whole point of it, anyways great vid!!
Wow what an amazing guide. If only all DS walkthroughs were like this one.
Used this for DS1R in 2020
Thanks for helping me get my +5 chaos Zweihander ;)
2 years later, you ever make your own build yet? Or still just looking them up online?
@@raiusdaltar1483 in my playthrough I did but don’t have ds1 no more
this is an amazing review a very high quality one if i do say the resolution could be a little better but amazing job very very helpful amazing job
so idk if your answer has been answered yet kinda old comment but his build in this video is called a vitality dump you get the stats to use a certain elemental weapon usually a katana and dump every other spare point into vitality works insanely well
You can get regular Titanite Slabs as a rare drop from the Darkwraiths in New Londo, I suggest equipping the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring before trying though.
Pure quality, great job Byakokoko :]
for chaos ember, strong magic shield works fine too :)
Nicely done, man! A good player in Tekken and fan of dark souls ! really good work!
Your guides are awesome bro :)
as for farming shards and chunks:
the easiest way to require shards and chunks is by farming the black knights at the kiln of the first flame (before the end boss)
the knight with the greatsword will drop red chunks and the knight with the axe will drop blue chunks
if you haven't joined the darkwraiths you can talk to kingseeker framt at the firelink shrine and make him chew the blue and red (?) chunks into green titanite shards
this method is fairly easy and cheap in the end game
I just meant to say LoK isn't as obscure as people think, I do agree that it is a shame that no-one ever talks about it often though. And yeah I'll be interested to see that, I think I'll be making my own list too. :)
Yes I myself would appreciate such a guide.
Wow, for a game that looks so dark, the main menu music sounds very pleasant.
Is the DLC worth getting? I'm about 3 quarters done my first playthrough! :)

+Neenjah Rammus Oh hi rammus,stupid rito just banned for nothing...how you doing?
ARKIO 5896 I'm... Okay.
You're awesome, man. Watching this made me feel like a total noob lol.
can every weapon that goes to level 10 be a special weapon? because i go to level 10 with the scythe and gave it prinscilla's sould and got her scythe?
How can you possibly dislike this?! Great Guide!
Hey what bow/arrows are you using? and i love you're videos they are helping me so much/ going to help me :D. I just got into dark souls and im kinda struggling on my first playthrough but i feel that these will help, so keep it up :).
What's the difference between fire and chaos? What should I go for?
Fire if you don't usually have many humanities, Chaos if you play with 10 humanities.
Gamerdude1246 is the damage difernce big?
Aaron Antonio Sainz Bonilla Significant enough, yes. It's a high-risk, high-reward type of play with Chaos. Although I don't like it.
***** thanks man
Gamerdude1246 what's the risk?
Fully upgraded magic , Devine, fire etc.. weapon if dropped by a friend in online mode will this unlocks the achievement? Or I have to upgrade it myself?
Why this video feels nostalgic
the blacksmith in anor londo can make your weapons into lightning. it takes titanite chunks to upgrade it
I remember when I loved videos like this,but after all of the videos with commentary i kinda dont like vids without one,but good video still
Really good guide. Which of these would be better for a zweihander?
Dude you're the best! Thank you so much for your guides :)!
1:44 you can also simply run through and suicide off the edge after you got the ember if you don't want to hassle yourself over killing the worms
your video was amazing great quality, sound and very helpful
For the 4 worms there is actually a spot smackdown in the middle between the two farthest in which you can shoot them all from and don't have to run by at all.
Hm, I knew all of this, yet I still watched the entire video.
after you help Siegmeyer in Lost Izalith she will be back in firelink again and says she found her dad and he has gone again. then you have to go to Ash lake and she gives you a titanite slab! but a bit of a sad ending I wont spoil.
one is from laurentius, the other is from the egg guy near quelaags sister. You have to have the egg on your head and he will give you a cure and if you talk to him again the pyro glove.
I went to vamos already and when I came back, I used the shortcut, many skeletons were chasing me and they eneded up killing him, am I just out of luck or is there something I can do
Also you can Use both the giant blacksmith and the Catacombs skeleton guy blacksmith, to Make you a soul weapon! 10+ Needed for that
watching this video 10 years later
@RynKen +10 fire has higher base damage, but +5 chaos will do more damage if you have 10 or more humanity because that's what it scales with.
I'm really confused about what requires what.If I want a chaos zweihander (cough cough) what do I need to make it?I have a +5 Zweihander,and I obviously need the chaos ember,but do I need to have a fire zweihander first?Do I need red slabs?
Pretty funny that you asked this, because I had just made a Chaos Zwei last night. :P Anyways, keep your Zwei at +5. You'll need Vamos, the Skeleton Blacksmith, to Ascend it to a Fire Zweihander. To do this, you'll need a green titanite shard, and more green titanite shards to get it to a +5 Fire Zweihander. Once you get it to +5 Fire and once you have the Chaos Ember, you'll need Vamos to ascend it to a Chaos Zweihander using a Red Titanite Chunk, and you'll need more Red Titanite Chunks to get it to a +4 Chaos Zweihander. Finally, to get it to +5, you'll need a Red Titanite Slab. I hope I explained this clearly, because writing it down like that makes it sound like a very long process.
I'm really grateful you'd go to that expense to explain it to me,thanks a lot man,you rock
It's the easier way, and since this guide is for beginners, it makes sense to recommend the easier way.
Best video i have seen, good job.
Beautifully made video.
At +5 you can make a divine weapon.
You need a divine ember for that, It's at the top of the stairs at the end of the bridge where you killed the moonlight butterfly.
For lighting you make it +10 and go to the giant blacksmith in Anor londo. You need I Think green titanite for it, You can buy it from him aswell for quite a low price.
For fire (Not reccomended if you don't have no divine weapon) Head into the Catacombs down from where the graveyard is near Firelink. Light the bonfire. And
hello. do they both have the same fire effect on enemy contact please? both have flames appear? thanks
Nice! Can you tell me what's the soundtrack that was used in this video?
Fucking subscribed. Awesome to see someone put such effort into videos like this.
At 2:14, I usually just make a mad dash past the two worms infront of me to the chest, get the ember, then homeward bone out.
Concerning which upgrade path is the best... it really depends on the enemy you're fighting and your own play-style. For example, fire is almost useless in blighttown and against any enemy that is fire-based, but does INSANE amounts of damage in the darkroot garden/oolicile areas. And divine weapons destroy the enemies in the tomb of the giants, but doesn't do as much against the enemies in anor londo (still does a good bit). It really just depends on the build you're going for and the weapon you're upgrading.
Actually, it really doesn't as long as your weapon is dully upgraded and you know how to swing a weapon you will do slot of damage even in blight town
Yeah, good luck maxing out a fire/chaos weapon before you get to there, seeing as you can't max out any weapon paths other then the normal +15 until you beat O&S. Better just to use a + 10 regular or magic +5 for blighttown. Or a holy weapon, or hell, just use a black knight weapon or the dragon weapons. there are plenty of options for you. Also, ever tried using magic weapons in the dukes archives? A lot less effective than chaos or holy.
windy wave Yeah, I use magic slot regardless of the area, even with magic, dukes archives is easy
How do you use a "magic slot"? Do you mean that you attune spells such as pyromancy and cast them at you're enemies, because I was talking about WEAPONS upgraded to the magic path, not casting spells at your foes. Casting spells is quite effective indeed.
windy wave No, I meant I use magic ALOT
3:18 whats the name of that spell, and where do i get it?
You can't be that stupid...
You can get chaos emer also by having ninja flip ring on and some fire resistance gear.
You need to have saved dusk, killed the blue respawning golem near the first bonfire in the dukes archives and killed the hydra in the lower lvls of the forest area. Head to the place where the golden golem was in the forest cave and you should be able to get to the location
If you are going after the lg. fire ember, you can easily run past those enemies and use a homeward bone.
I made my wep into a fire but it wont upgrade further do I need to talk to a dif blacksmith or something?
So which are the fastest weapons (swing) for the fire path with descent damage?
I have 2 Balder Slide Swords so I was thinking of modifying one of them.
Any suggestions?
Scrimitar?

omg this is some good video bro . nice work !
where do you get the lightening effect.Is it an ember?
I need this sword for Manus his so fucking hard to dmg..
Does this work with Zweihander?
What are some good weapons to infuse with lightning or chaos
Then keep going from the bridge till you find the second bonfire in the catacombs. I Say wait till you have the Lordvessel so you can warp back to firelink
And the black smith is down the stairs in one of the doors. Make sure you roll onto the ledge since it is really dark.
There you go!
@BlackHolyday24 The Darmoon bow, after killing Gwyndolin you have to ascend a random +10 bow with the soul of Gwyndolin and it will make this bow (strongest bow in the game)
Any chance someone ccould tell me if the painting guardian sword can be upgraded in fire , and later on into chaos ? Thanks in advance !
It can, but i would'nt recommend it. Going the elemental path removes stat scaling, and the painting guardian sword has awesome dex scaling. you're much better off going the standard path, and putting stat points in to dex. That way you get the awesome dex scaling AND you can enchant the weapon with magic weapon, or sunlight blade etc... on top of the normal damage. If you go the elemental route you end up with split damage, which looks good on paper, but the results are usually quite underwhelming.
For reference, I have a +15 great scythe and a +5 dragonslayer spear(it's a boss weapon, so that's its maxed out upgrade). and at my stat allocation, they both have an attack rating of 485, so it seems like they should be equal, or at worst similar in damage output. but the fact is the dragonslayer spear(which has split damage with lightning) does roughly 60% of the damage that the great scythe does. And that's just without enchantment. With sunlight spear added on to my great scythe, it does well over twice as much damage as the dragonslayer spear(which, like all split damage weapons, can't be enchanted).
Depends, if you chose a Sorcerer as your beginning class. Your soul level can be bumped to 714.
You can, if you wish, obtain the orange charred ring by simply cutting off the centipede demons tail. It's useful in that fight anyway.
I ascended it to its maxed out level and the bird said "no no" I tried quitting and loading anyway and I've got nothing, was I not suppose to max the pyro hand out?
Timothy Weston correct; you have to ascend it but not upgrade it any further otherwise he won't take it. You can always pick up another pyromancy flame, though
Yeah in the next play through
after you kill the silver knights for him he goes back to firelink shrine and will give you a miracle (emit force) then he goes to blightown near the entrance to great hollow, and will ask for some mosses. give them to him and he gives you his shield. then he goes to lost izalith.
How would you get the chaos ember without the orange charred ring?
Crapload of vitality and fire resistance?
no just use go around the demons they may attack you but you can go around the lava and then walk to it and grab it.
+Yoriko Arran Use the fog ring or sorcery and get ton of health,occasionally get on earth and heal,you can heal on lava with humanities too but takes a lot of em and it takes longer to do that way.
Figured it out but thanks. It did not require as much health as I expected if you go with lightest encumberance level
TC195 I managed to do it without dying, black knight armour has got the best fire resistance of all armours so I combined that with gold hemmed robes and equipped the ring of favour and protection along with the red stoneplate ring.
Yeah Dark Souls and Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver are in my top 4 favourite games of all time along with BioShock and The Darkness, but it's not true that no one knows about LoK Soul Reaver is actually one of the best selling game series of all time (look up "List of best-selling Playstation games" on Wikipedia, it's in the top half of the list).
Yes!! and your videos are such good quality. I also need help with artorias lol...
Did you only level up vitality? If so what did you do to farm souls?
@Dagoth Ur dude this video came out in 2011....
