Still got me totally hooked this. It seems to be much longer than Demon's Souls as well.
If it's Green Titanite Shard / Large Titanite Shard that you're after, there's a merchant right at the end of Sen's Fortress before the boss that you can buy them from

Finally found a way to the lower part of the Undead Burg last night, though the
Capra Demon
nailed me in mere seconds. I knew I could get down there though!...I do love how all the areas intersect and you can see the 'Burg even when in the Darkroot Garden, or that you can spot those out of reach secret areas with sneaky positioning and deft camera movement...It's like you have just the right amount of tools and there's just the right amount of visual clues to discover stuff. The level design seems pretty masterful to me.
Agree with FSW too, I'm not even thinking about playing another videogame.
Which for me, is saying something.

Once you get to
Anor Londo
you'll be screaming in fits of rage.
I still can't do the boss. Time to farm humanity and get someone's help.
One other thing I'm annoyed at, is the effectiveness of Lightning weapons over everything else. Stat scaling weapons really, really don't scale well enough to make them worth it. You can make a character and put all the points into vitality and endurance, then get yourself a lightning weapon and you'll do the same amount of damage as an attack built character, but with vastly more health and stamina.
Grrrrr....Last edited by rmoxon; 10-10-2011, 13:40.

Unfortunately I don't think I've met many enemies that are resistant to lightning, if any at all...
Thing is, the lightning stat is on top of the base damage too.
Let's say the +10 version of the weapon has 180 base damage. The lightning version will then have 180 base damage + 180 lightning damage. Granted, the base damage then doesn't scale, but that's a silly amount of damage especially when you can then upgrade that weapon to +5 and get even higher returns on top of that.
They went a bit OTT with that. At least with Divine weapons, the base damage is significantly reduced. Not so with lightning weapons.
I upgraded the Uchigatana though, and allegedly you can pick up more than one. I might upgrade one to Lightning +5 and one to +15, then test the damage out on both.

I believe those hard bosses from
Anor Londo
are weak to lightning. And you can find a lightning weapon in
Sen's Fortess
.

I'll do a full-on damage test on several mobs and let people know the results nonetheless. Now I just need to figure out how I obtain that second Uchigatana...
There's also the issue of diminishing returns. I've got my Dex now to about 40 - 45, and apparently after 40 you get proper dimishing returns on that stat so I reckon it's time for me to bolster my strength a little bit.
