Bloody hell, I've just entered some sort of warp gate near third Mariska church Ruins, by the small river/pond and I've ended up in a far north westerly area called Greyroll's Dragonbarrow, right outside a 'Bestial Sanctum'. There's a huge fucker with wings down some steps from here, but I've warped in behind him so have run into the sanctum and there's a site of grace here. Don't run away from here, this area will become your level up friend Head for the Dragon and you can get 8k runes in a few minutes... Then repeat

What's the catch? Obliteration if you get complacent (speaking from experience:( )

No worries. I don't know how tough your character is, but keep a bloody eye out in there

I need better spells for my Astrologer. I've also picked up zero new threads as well.

Teleport traps ? Wtf ?! Ended up having a sneaky peek at what I presume is the final area, capital city at very north of map. Given the option of fighting a stone giant, absolute chonk healthbar, or using a grace to teleport out, and after 9 attempts I find out he's only worth 3k souls I'm getting into this now, morning star with bleed is doing wonders.

I've spent about 4-5 hours on it today. Ended up going east too far so haven't actually been fighting that much stuff, more checking them out. But it's just as much fun exploring as it is fighting. Plus, all the items and seeds are generally a much higher level so item wise, it's a win. One of them is worth 7500 to a trader so that'll be useful I'm sure.
Feel a bit more stronger now so I think I'm going to do a bit more pottering here and then go back and progress a bit.
I might be strong enough for the miners now - is that the best place for smithing stones?

I've just been exploring East Limgrave and killed some spirit guy in a boat mini-boss, who was a bit rubbish. I've also just entered into Caelid and killed some crazy red phantom lady at a Smouldering church. Going to explore deeper into here.

The high level sorceries/scrolls (to give to that vendor) are in the Academy. There's a mini quest to gain access. Ironically, getting through the path to the Academy as a caster is going to be a living nightmare. It was rough enough as melee. This came up earlier in the thread - can confirm there *are* illusory walls

Looks like you and me have gone to the same places today I managed to traverse the majority of it and I'm level 15 with a +1 longsword so if you have at least that and above, you should be OK. Well, apart from the traps that is. And the massive monsters. And the ambushes of course.

Worse still, I've ventured further here and I think I've just found this games version of a Blighttown... Urrrghhh, big nasty swamp 🤢.

Im sat in the pub with a few mates and they keep asking if I'm alright, because apparently I'm just staring into space. It's because I'm trying to work out what I need to do next in the game

Kind of regretting going faith/Dex as I'm finding the weapon choice quite limited. I've got shedloads of great looking strength weapons though so I might respec.

I've already tested it out and it's doing quite a bit more damage than my starting Astrologer staff ! addyb if you don't mind spoilers, get on this ASAP ^^.

Not sure I've found anything with A scaling on it yet, everything seems to be D or C.

Are summons offline on Xbox at the moment? Because I’m outside Ulcerated Tree Spirit and I could do with the help but there’s nothing, even with a furlcalling finger remedy. I can get it down to around 50% health but the start of the second phase absolutely destroys me with a sudden AOE flame attack that seems to be unblockable and one-hit kills

I regret upgrading the Reduvia. I should have played about more with daggers before doing it.. is it shite? I was going to up my lvl so I could wield it. It’s actually not too bad now. Arcane can cause a tonne of damage randomly.

It closes the distance so fast while I’m trying to summon a glowy friend!
