hopefully you're better prepared than i was and have at least a basic divine weapon upon entry, otherwise like me you might end up with an army of ever-respawning skeletons chasing you all the way throughout

Quit being terrible and kill the necromancers already god they're not hard to find.

[Kalahari Inkantation]

if you would take the time to read above, you'll see i've already done that, as it was the very reason i went there to begin with

finding them was never the problem, it was focusing on them while their ever-respawning troops gang up on you from behind

[Thyme]

shield up, dodge, let them run into a wall and hit them once they stop spinning
walk slowly so as to do this with only one or at most two at a time

it's easy really, tho i'll admit they can be p. rude that first time you encounter them in that basement in ariamis

Whenever I decide it's time to kill Pinwheel, I seriously just run through. I'm not messing with skeletons lol

i did this too and didn't get why people said that section was so hard lol

[TooB]

i've died about twenty times and i give up for now

[TooB]

Ive been using a pyromancer base build, but dont really focus on that.
I focus on str, dex, and a little vit.

Using quelaggs furysword, so great

[Kalahari Inkantation]

hydra down

blighttown next, for real this time!!

[Samus Aran]

cool i did better. Only died like 5-6 times.

uh yeah cool lol

[Kalahari Inkantation]

[Samus Aran]

yeah pretty much

[Samus Aran]

finally beat Drake and Josh

really, i died so many times last night because i was just pissed off and thus was playing more and more horribly each try lol

i just tried to be as absolutely careful as possible in baiting ornstein, only hitting him with my sword when smough was far enough away, and then throwing in no more than one soul arrow if i deemed it absolutely safe enough (basically, when ornstein in is in his slow walk mode where he just steadily walks toward you, presumably about to do the move where he leaps in the air first and then dives at you)

and then once ornstein was down i used great magic weapon and whacked at smough's fat ass as fast as i could and just tried to always stay behind him and run REALLY far away when he did AOE butt stomp

[TooB]

uh yeah cool lol

well, only because you tend to do better than me.

if you have a good shield, its possible to block his aoe attack and only take like one segment of health of damage. Thats what i did.
Now i have to wonder how nightmarish ornery is when smog goes down first

[Samus Aran]

black knight shield is what i have been using - i do not have the required strength to wield greatshields

and i refuse to upgrade it because twinkling titanite is valuable and i'd probably rather use it on something else, so its stability is as good as it's going to get until i find a better shield that's not too heavy lol
