Dark Souls

Hmm. So I killed Ciaran and got her armor and two weapons. How exactly are you supposed to use them? Dual-wielding seems kinda... bad, and Gold Tracer seems like you're supposed to use it in the left-hand while Dark Silver in the right for backstabs/counters. But how can you parry using this method? And backstabbing seems rather challenging to do without being able to block and dart behind them during the stun.

Most people just use the Gold tracer since it scales well with Dex and causes bleed, I have seen people dual wielding it. It's all a matter of preference really, if you want to use both swords then you're suppose to use the Gold Tracer on the left hand and the Silver on the right. I think that the Silver has better critical than the Gold so it's used best for riposte and back stabs.

Edit: Side note, I started a Bow only playthrough and I must say that it is hard. Enemies with shields are so hard to deal with. I pretty much have to shoot an arrow as they are about to attack me. It's high risk low reward at the moment and it will be even more of a risk when I have to go through Sens Fortress because those asshole serpent people have big shields. Actually any enemy with a shield is a problem for me. Black Knights are a pain in the ass and I worry about fighting against those giants in Anor Lando... Oh god Artorias is going to make me rage quit life.
 
How do I permanently kill the skeletons in the Catacombs?

EDIT: Two more things. WHere's a good place to hunt for Guilty as a Darkmoon Blade? And what are some good medium class armors to look for on my dex/faith character?

Use a divine weapon or kill all the Necromancers.
 
Hmm, my Divine Weapons are barely doing damage.

EDIT: Should mention that on my Dex/Faith character I went ahead and killed Gwyndolin and got the Sunlight Blade and Brass Armor (cool armor set!). Mainly because I couldn't get and PvP action going as a Darkmoon Blade and mainly because when I did, all I would get is lots of laggy fights or some weird abuses.

Anywho, with the Artorias of the Abyss stuff cleared I'm now tackling Lost Izalith. Got past the Fire demon and knocked out the Ceaseless Discharge as well. Can't figure out how to kill the Demon Centipede, though.
