Quady Plays Some Dark Souls Part 5 - New Londo & Four Kings

[Suzumushi100]

I've still got a few items to get here actually I might come back here before I beat the game and move to NG+.

If you're lucky, ghosts sometimes drop their knives which allows you to fight them without the need of transient curses.

Oh man the Four Kings, I donned my Havel's Armor, shield of stamina, ring of defense plz, and every freaking thing else!

I must have gotten estus flask poisoning at the end of the fight.

[DarkxDizi]

Four Kings have some pretty badass music.

does this game have randomly generated areas? there doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason to them. The fact that everything is nearly pitch dark probably doesnt help though, is it like that on an actual TV?

[Quadraxis14]

@zombierobopirate Nope, everything is as it's intended to be, that's why enemy placements are usually strategically implemented to make fights challenging. The brightness may be darker than on a TV because PowerDirector is weird with the contrast option, but in all honesty this is a really dark area in the first place.

@zombierobopirate Think of this game as taking a vacation to Lordran with it's wretchedly corrupted inhabitants. You take a visit to each of their vile homes. Each home has a story.

Where can you get lots of Transient curses? <<

[Quadraxis14]

@LogicLupus I'm pretty sure you can buy them from somewhere... Maybe that merchant in the sewers, though I could be mistaken. Primarily the best place to find them is in New Londo itself, if you're all out though you're gonna be in a pretty bad spot, still, I'd say search around, they've got to be somewhere that doesn't require the ghost brides stabbing your eyeballs out in the process.

these things sound like guys from soul reaver...the things in the spirit world that are there literally for you to consume

[Suzumushi100]

I see you got a Channelers Trident but did you get the superior Titanite Catch Pole? I personally love it it's got good range and hits hard and it's nice and fast as long as you time it properly and don't get into it's combo which isn't that great. I prefer it over my Black Knights Sword which is kind of slow but hits good sigh if only i could have gotten the Halberd. Also is putting my sign next to the Gargoyle boss fight a good idea for soul grinding or should i stick to the bridge?

[Quadraxis14]

@Suzumushi100 I like my Scythe better than anything else in the game, lol.

And no, generally soul grinding next to the Bell Gargoyles won't yield a whole lot of results, at least not too often on NG+ (I didn't have much success, anyways).

[Suzumushi100]

@Quadraxis14 Lol I'm STILL NG yeah i stopped when i hit Blight Town but one day i shall persevere over the lag and the annoying enemies after grinding a few levels in vitality.

[Fatcat214]

The first time i went through here, I almost had an aneurysm from the amount of rage i went through. But funnily enough, i beat Four kings on my first try.

[Quadraxis14]

@Fatcat214 I had a lot more luck with them when I took up some heftier armor, when I was using my light armor set I was just getting murdered left and right XD
