With 5 or so points in humanity you should be able to farm it with relative ease. Also, you can kill all NPCs before starting a NG+. One NPC (
Rhea of Thorolund
) holds 7 and a Firekeeper Soul will give you five

To be honest, I'm not too sure how far away from last boss I am. I've defeated bosses in erratic order. Not really sure what to do next. Let's see... The last bosses I did where in Darkmoon forest and basin, done Anor Londo and Devil Ruins. can't fight ghost in New Londo yet and catacombs looks to dangerous for me at the moment. Tried Valley of Drakes, but after killing 3 dragons, I started to get to see myself weaken the further I went. I remember visiting somewhere called King's Archive or something, it didn't seem to bad.
My only gripe with this game at the moment, is thatvsometimes I switch it on and find myself unsure of what to do next.

As I am the complete opposite. I've loved the openess on how you could tackle certain areas in which order. Sure enough, there's not much point going to a few places unless you've aquired key items. But I loved reading how different everyones playthroughs and where they went as it was different from mine.

You can also use a cursed weapon without being cursed or under effect of a transient curse, but such weapons are extremely rare: right now only a dagger (dropped by the ghosts themselves) and a weapon made from a boss soul come to my mind.
For the Catacombs, be sure to carry a holy weapon so normal skeletons won't respawn.
And I'm sure you'll notice when only the last boss is left

Valley of the drakes is an optional area btw. It also doesn't feature a boss and is primarily a giant shortcut to a few other areas.Last edited by rmoxon; 15-12-2011, 18:49.

I've not been on this for around 2 months, despite absolutely loving the 50-60 hours I put into it. I got to the crystal caverns (I think that's what it's called) and the tomb of the giants. I just kept dying and it wasn't fun at all, all the other bits I persevered through and enjoyed. But those parts just made me stop playing. I really want to go back but I'm not looking forward to doing them at all. Any tips from people who've pwned those parts? I've got a light spell for the TotG etc and I know you can walk on the
invisible platforms at the crystal caverns.

There are four hiding places I would suggest:
The archway just before the area with them in.
The mass of broken pillars that you come across as you go a little ways into the area.
The first building you come across (it has a chest in it), once inside you can pick a few off with arrows from in there.
Finally the best place to kill them from is at the top of the structure that contains the bonfire, up a broken tree branch. Once on top of there you basicaly just have to fire a few arrows to get their attention and they will kill each other off.

Tomb Of The Giants is a pain in the arse. You may be doing what I did though and simply not realising there is a bonfire down there and going the wrong way entierly. As you travel down there is a series of coffins you slide down, after either the second or third one (sorry i cant remeber which) if you turn around there is a very narrow path around the side of a wall that leads you to the first bonfire. Once you find this first bonfire the rest of the area is much easier to navigate.Last edited by rmoxon; 26-12-2011, 09:51.

once you get rid of him the rest of the area is easy.
I agree in dodging essentially any other enemy there, the gold golems take a lot of punishment and there isn't enough space for maneuvering, but the first can be lured with an arrow and can get struck in the scenery for an easy kill.
If you're lucky the Moonlight Butterflies drop Titanite Slabs, but unlike the boss in Darkroot Garden they won't land, so be prepared for a long-range fight...and hope that the drop will land somewhere you can reach.
Before the second gold golem there are three Crystal Lizards inside the small cave just above that golem: get there, quit, reload and have fun harvesting stones.
