Demons souls

[Jaxel]

If a sequel did come, it would have to be a prequel... something at the time the great fog was moving in.

Impending_Doom, it's weird, but I actually get more damage if I use the Talisman of Beasts. I tested it, and I get about 200+ more damage with Soul Ray, and I get the MP boost too. It might have to do with having a high Faith skill as well. I dunno for sure. Don't forget to add that Ring of Magical Sharpness too. You can also boost your magic a ton if you upgrade the Kris Blade with colorless demon souls. +5.

Old King Doran, if you want to count him as a boss, was one of the most difficult. Just because you don't do much damage and his attacks were kind of unpredictable. My char is level 235, and I've gone through the game 8 times so far, but even then, I still do shit damage on him. I dont even mess with him now unless I am really bored.

@Jaxel: I don't think im going to be only a mage, I'm not focusing on my strength too much, got it on 18 just to wield some stuff, Im mainly focusing on the magic stats and vitality.

Also since I plan on not having much strength would a good final weapon for me be the uchigatana? I'm gonna try get the dragon smasher sword or whatever it is but it probably won't be that good with little strength/ dex. Since you can upgrade the uchigatana for the damage bonus to be from your magic should i do that once i get it?

Also another Q: I have a bunch of souls (not the currency type) the one you find off the ground. E.g renowned heroes souls... Is there any use for this or should I just eat it?

These are my stats atm im a royalist and ive learned soul arrow, soul ray, enchant weapon (5000 one) and evacuate.

vit:22
Intelligence:14
endurance:11
strength:18
dex: 13
Magic: 18
Faith: 12
Luck: 7

What should I upgrade next and how should my stats be like in the long run? I want a mage/ melee char.

Thnx :)

Just read this page after seeing a crystal gecko in 2-1, it escaped:

http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/crystal-geckos

So does this mean that I've lost one potential gecko forever? It says that if it escapes then decrease the respawn count by one... I know I should have loaded game but at the time I didn't know what it was...

I havnt killed any1 in any other levels so i bet they all got away too. So does that mean I've lost all them and can't get the max amount of them in a game? I know they respawn after you kill the boss but not killing it before means i've lost it right? Not too sure, maybe you only lose it if you kill it but don't pick up the drop?

False King Allant is immune to poison, you need to use DEATH CLOUD.

Did they patch him or something then because if you want I can link my youtube vid where I clearly hit him with poison cloud and it does damage.

The TOB has a C in faith and magic while the IC has an S IIRC in magic. The damage is close, but once your magic exceeds like 50 maybe, the IC will out do everything. I forgot about the Ring of Magical Sharpness. I need to play this some more, I want to make a Blueblood build.

Yes that means you missed it. They respawn one time eveytime you kill a boss in that world. That gecko isn't that important, but there are some other geckos that you should really try not to miss. As a whole, unless you plan to grind a lot in this play through, I would say ignore the geckos until NG+. However, there are certain ones in World 3 and 4 that you should not ignore. These geckos drop moonstones and darkmoonstones, and the drop rate for pures is crap. You should probably get PBWT in those worlds before you go after those geckos too. Darkmoonstones are used to make crescent weapons so have fun/

Best trio those three knights at the Penetrators entrance. Angry, menacing, and will chase you towards the end of the earth.

Equip thief ring or the black phantom ring, and then you can just pelt them with magic or arrows while they sit there.
Old King Doran was easy for me. Poison Cloud cheese all the way, but he sometimes reacts to it which I don't understand.
