haha touche touche so what you are saying is start a new character...the pyromancer use him with the drake sword I know that fire is a weakness of his but I cannot put fire on the drake sword which sucks btw


You don't need to start a new character for any reason. Swap your armor for something lighter and get pyromancy. You really need to start using the dark souls wiki if it is this bad.


The Drake sword is fine until Anor londo, once you reach that you need to get a better weapon.

But still, it's a crutch so you don't even know how to upgrade weapons or fight properly if you use the drake sword. It's preferable if he ditches the drake sword as soon as possible.

dude I can't even make it to the stairs I thought well maybe my armor is too heavy


Why the hell are you using heavy armor in a game that emphasizes hit and run?


You won't even be able to walk to the four kings let alone look at lord gwyn or astorias.


Hell, NITO could probably kill you.
A bigger insult would be pinwheel lol.


Does that thing even have an attack? I just rush up to it and start slicing it. if he gets killed by that then.....

OP, capra demon isn't that hard. Just summon someone if you're having a difficult time... also...
Posted by: irishfreak
The capra demon is next on my list, I don't see him giving me any trouble as I did grind abit(lvl50atm)
You're overleveled as hell.


I can't I am offline playing...also I beat him not 20 mins ago....I used the stairs like the other guy said as he came up i jumped off and he followed and it stunned him so...it worked pretty well I am in the depths now.


Good luck with blighttown.


Crap. i am sorry OP but you might want to put Dark souls down. you seriously might have a breakdown at this level. and this isn't a joke whatsoever.

You are seriously stuck THAT early in the game?

Really? It's not that big of a deal. A lot of people have problems on this boss.



you did see the part where he says he has been stuck for a year right? Later comments on how he is a level 50.

That is too much.

I found an axe in the depths that starts out doing 140 damage should I upgrade that weapon until it is better than the drake sword the use it?


No, first post your stats so we can know what kind of weapon you should use.

You do see how much difficulty he is having right? I honestly think it might be better for him to just stick with it but that is just me. he will be forced to switch at anor londo anyway, it won't be doing enough damage.


I honestly didn't start getting into the weapon development until NG+ I just used the black knight sword my first game.

Exactly and that's why he needs to ditch the drake sword ASAP.
When that baby's useless he'll be stuck in Anor Londo without a suitable weapon, and he's already over-leveled so good luck trying to find someone to help with summons.

Yeah that's gonna make the game a heck of a lot easier for him. And thanks bro! :D

  • 01.02.2013 5:13 PM PDT

He threw down a glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up now you're gone
The choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.

At the start, go left and up the stairs, then the rest is a joke.


Ps; only bad part of blightdown is the 5FPS, if not for that, blighttown is easy.

I agree then.

OP, you got to post your stats so we can help you. but getting the black knight sword is pretty much your safe weapon the first round. IMO

  • 01.02.2013 5:14 PM PDT

-bow chicka brown cow-

Dont fight the Capra Demon. Hes not essential, and get a different sword, the Drake sword doesn't get more powers as it has no stat modifiers.

  • 01.02.2013 5:15 PM PDT

What are these first person words you speak of?

Eh, teh puma either prefers Lightning Scythe or Zwiehander with however many fire upgrades you can put on it at your current level for first run through at anor londo.

They aren't "the best" but teh puma doesn't really think there is a best combo in this game. He just uses them for fun, and the scythe is so much fun when two handed.

Dat radius. So big.

Here are my stats:

Level 23

Vitality: 17
Attunement: 8
Endurance: 13
Strength: 21
Dexterity: 17
Resistance:11
Intelligence:9
Faith:9

I tried to focus most of the points on my strength dexterity and health so I would hit hard and do high damage and not die so quickly

bump your endurance up a bit for more stamina, then hit your strength to 24 and use a zwiehander if you want to do lots of damage.

I barely even played that game. Basic enemies are far too powerful, and the story is like an arcade, forcing you to go to a checkpoint after death.

I can't have fun with a game that requires luck.

In Fable 3 you're immortal on 'roids. It's like you have 75 layers of immortality.

Completely off the topic of this boss, but can someone tell me how to kick?

I'm playing on PC, using an Xbox controller. The message sign in the tutorial says "left stick and RB" for kick, but what am I doing with the left stick? Pressing it? Moving it?

I've tried everything and I can't kick at all.

  • 01.02.2013 5:39 PM PDT

What are these first person words you speak of?

Move it forward. You have to do both at the exact same time for it to work.

You press forward. Like you're running forward0 holding the stick in the forward direction. You just tap (not hold) both at the same time and you'll kick.
