Is there a way to make my fireballs go farther? Was just able to start playing again and I'm running around undead parish as pyromancer and mad when my spells land short even when I feel like I'm close enough. Though I found an awesome shield which is making it easier somewhat.

Dammit I was in the catacombs giving the blacksmith an ember and one of the rolling skeletons killed him. :angry: I guess I'm fu... right?

You are screwed. I've heard there is a way to bring people back to life for an crazy amount of souls though I have no idea how.

Damn I was ready to give him the embers and make my fire weapon. You can give the tower guy souls to absolve your sins but that doesn't revive them. I killed Eingyi (He/She looks like an enemy :/) and did the sins thing and he/she still dead. I guess I have to wait until NG+. I'm going to kill all NPC before the final boss. :devil:

What I was planning on doing. Get some humanity and souls before NG+, just leave the Fire Keeper in Firelink alive in case you die. Also be able to snag a few more Fire Keeper souls and get your flasks up some more.

One boss to go, then it's just farming to make each of the weapons I can this play through and onward to NG+. Really want to start NG+ already, I can't wait.

And if anyone trying to get the tail weapon off of Seath, you can kill him if w/o chopping off tail while solo focusing on his tail. :( Think I'll use a different weapon than my greataxe hitting him for 550+. :(

I couldn't get the weapon. :/ My Zweihander was hitting for something like that too and I killed him.

Well, did everything I could do. All the max weapon upgrades I need slabs for, and I don't feel like grinding for them. I'll just use the 2nd play through to make those. So only to kill Gwyndolin who is a pain. If you can mesmerize what his attacks look like you'll figure out which one you can parry. Doing that it would take 2 parry's and 1 Great Chaos Fireball and I had him like basically dead, then he do his stupid quad move, followed by his darth vadar choke hold and that instant double dash. So annoying, the entire game never got a boss so low so many times w/o killing him.

I beat him! Figured out you can counter nearly all his attacks, so just parried him and when he was getting up, hit him with a Great Chaos Fireball. Went down in 3 parry's and 2 fire balls. Time to start NG+!

Man, that 90 minute run through is insanely impressive. Tried to follow in his footsteps... failed at the cutting of the dragons tale. But this character build is just awesome. I played up to killing Queelag just as him, increased my pryo hand to +11 before reaching soul level 4. Now I'm at 6 hours of game play, with a lvl 37 pyro, who has caught up to my other 2 chars of almost the same level, but having well over 40+ hours of gameplay.

Amazing how much more quickly as you learn it. But the pyro build is really OP lol.

Ya, im going to go for that. Is it 22k of souls at +15?

11 is 14000

12 is 16000

13 is 19000

14 is 22000

15 is 25000

And then once you get it there a NPC will appear in Blightown (before killing Lost Izalith boss) that can Ascend it to +5:

2500 for initial conversion

1 is 27000

2 is 30000

3 is 33000

4 is 36000

5 is 40000

It's alot of souls but its so worth it, because +5 has a magic adjust of 270, which is beast.

  • Like 1

Actually, that NPC will show up once you have hit +10 on your pyro hand. I didn't realize it until last night. Was at +9, running all around the swamps of blighttown, and she wasn't where she was supposed to be. Read that you had to have +15 as well. So I ran and upgraded my hand to +10, and on my way back, noticed she was there. Was able to get all my chaos spells and high lvl spells. Of course, to do that, I killed the blacksmith and took his crest and then farmed it up in the woods a bit :p. All the spells were worth the 80k of souls though.

I'm a little peeved though, as I forgot to buy the shielded I needed before I killed the blacksmith. I'm sure I can still fair easily enough through the rest of the game without it, but it does help quite a bit i've seen.

Started a new character, this time a pyro, instead of continuing with NG+. Playing most of the time as human. I rarely played as human in my first gameplay and missed all the black phantoms and the multiplayer. Knight Solitaire is an idiot. He got killed in Gaping Demon battle. Is he dead now?

No. He'll be there for Anor Londo boss and I wanna say Demon Ruins. If you save him in Lost Izalith he'll also be there during final boss.

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195) by Aditya Tiwari Image: Snap Inc. Smartglasses powered by augmented reality are the latest fashion because the smartphone market is slowly reaching saturation. Snap Inc. announced its latest AR-powered smartglasses, called SPECS, that aim to strike a middle ground between underpowered AI glasses and heavy headsets you can't wear all the time. Available in two sizes, Snap SPECS are made from high-performance Swiss TR90 polymer and feature removable inserts to support prescription lenses. Its 47mm model weighs about 132g; the bigger 52mm model weighs 136g. Snap Inc has been spreading the word about the new glasses for a while now. Earlier this year, it even spun off its smart glasses team into a subsidiary called Specs Inc. Its proprietary LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display delivers a 51-degree field of view and 16 million colors. Snap says the device gives the feel of a 24-inch desktop monitor when you're working, and of a 115-inch home cinema screen placed about 10 feet away when watching a movie. A pair of custom stereo speakers and 6x high-SNR MEMS microphones are built into the temples of the smartglasses to deliver open-ear audio while you cast a screen, stream content, open a whiteboard, or collaborate with others. Snap Inc. patted itself on the back, saying the smartglasses don't need tethering or a puck to connect to a computer. Under the hood, SPECS draw its power from two Snapdragon processors: one for computer vision and another for running Lenses. The device supports fast hand tracking, low latency, and responsive interactions that help digital content feel anchored in the real world, according to the company, which claims that SPECS can "deliver 7-millisecond motion-to-photon latency." The smartglasses offer up to four hours of battery life on a single charge while providing AI assistance, Bluetooth notifications, Lenses, audio/video playback, and more. The battery life could jump to 20 hours of mixed use when the charging case is included. Image: Snap Inc. You can view and interact with AR Lenses anchored directly to the physical world around you, and an on-board AI assistant uses the camera to see what's around to answer questions or provide real-time help with tasks. Snap Inc. noted that it filed more than 7,000 patents during the development of SPECS. It's trying to build the required digital ecosystem around the smartglasses, and said that developers have already published hundreds of Lenses for SPECS. Moreover, their electrochromic lenses use the same technology available in Boeing 787 Dreamliner windows, enabling them to shift from clear to tinted in just 10 seconds when you walk out of your house. Snap SPECS are now available for pre-order on the official website with a $2,195 price tag ($200 refundable deposit). The smartglasses are expected to ship in the US, UK, and France during the Fall this year.
    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
    • Thanks for the tip. I am giving it a try. Initial quick impression: I like it.
