Tbh I haven’t, don’t want to look like a wrinkled old nutsack for the sake of a few free levels.
As I get more experienced with the game, this boss (and one other) continuously give me the most trouble. Still, I thought I’d put up the video for anyone interested:
You can get a ring to give you human appearance, or you can buy purging stones

Are you guys remembering to get your 5 free levels from homie in firelink shrine?
I guess because I co op a lot I’m way overpowered from where I’m running through right now (catacombs).
FromSoftware please fix the covenants so they actually work.

You can reverse it as soon as the lady gets there though…

I fucking hate Farron’s Keep. I had to abandon so much loot since I’m not strong enough to get on the larger monsters there. The giant enemy crab being the biggest pain. I was sniping it from Ruin Keep and somehow it would manage to hit it through the environment or teleport onto my platform.
It’s so easy though, especially with how many bonfires they toss you in Farrons.
Valley of Defilement and to a much lesser extent Blighttown are more difficult to progress through than Farrons imo.

Speaking of which: Yuria hasn’t shown up for me. Anyone know why that could be?

Making progress isn’t difficult. My problem is obtaining all the loot in the area. That part is a huge pain in the fucking ass. Place drowns you in loot but most of it is guarded by huge monsters in groups that happen to inhabit the deep end of the swamp. If it wasn’t for that I would just grab and run.

My homie looks like he died. He’s just lying on the ground I can’t do anything.
Looked up what happened, guess I’ll have to do the questline in my new game, or new char.

Did you go through the Catacombs before he died? I think if you advance too far before getting all 5 sigil she won’t show

I started on bloodborne and beat the game, with Ebrietas being the hardest and rage quitting on Ludwig.
I couldn’t beat the first boss in Dark Souls 3. =(
I do wonder how those who started out with Bloodborne are doing
“What do you mean I can’t get more health back by hitting them?!”
“Goddamit what’s the point of the sheild if everyone keeps breaking my guard?!”
“Chug faster you fuck they’re coming!”
“How the hell do you expect me to parry without gun?!”
Clearly I’m doing something wrong.
When Demon Souls and Dark Souls 1 and 2 came out, I tried to get into them but it was so bland to me and I kept dying.
**
Bloodborne hooked me from the beginning, even as I repeatedly died using the cane/whip.**I did go back to Dark Souls 1 and beat 3-5 bosses…killed Capra Demon my first time…made it to the sewers (where the explosions reduce your life by half until you figure out how to heal) This is where I stopped.
I rented Dark Souls 3 and gave up after 5 times or so against the first boss.
Wait you beat Bloodborne but couldn’t beat the first boss in Dark Souls 3?
I TOLD YOU GUYS BLOODBORNE WAS TOO EASY, SONY TOLD FROM TO MAKE THAT GAME ACCESSIBLE AS FACK

DSIII is hilariously easy too. Only boss I didn’t beat on my first try was Deacon, and that’s because I went into that fight with a whopping two Estus Flasks.
also fu bro ud get rekt in pvp
i had way more trouble with any Bloodborne boss than i did any of Dark Souls 3 so far to the point where everyone feels like Pinwheel or the Last Giant.
Still running through my blind first playthrough, loving the game so far, havn’t looked up anything or watched any videos so i’m just going off what i can find in the environment and figure out myself. I picked thief class from the jump and maybe i’m just not leveling up correctly but it seems really weak. I’m onto the 4th or 5th region now and it takes forever to kill stuff with daggers cause all my time is spent building bleed and going for parry/backstab.
So far the game is feeling harder than bloodborne by a fair bit, but that might have to do with the class I chose.
I only got one lvl up from the dude in Firelink, the he died and thats it. No ine else has shown up. Must have fucked it somehow, dunno.
Made it to the Catacombs. The skeletons here love to drop titanite shards. I probably have enough to get my most used weapons to +3. I found a few weapons that have decent scaling to both Dex and Str.
[Spoiler=]I haven’t had any luck finding Horace. I found his buddy twice already but not him[/spoiler]
