Have downed Seath the Scaleless. I’ve seen a lot of people online say it was easy but I actually found it tough. Those weird creatures right outside the boss door were causing me a lot of issues to begin with. Really enjoyed that area of the game though. I think I’m going to head down to Pinwheel now.

Yeah I just beat Seath and lobbed his tail off for good measure, I ran past the Oysters every time.I did Pinwheel ages ago I need to go to New Londo to get the Very Large Ember and I think I probably need to do some more exploring there anyway

Congrats on getting the tail off. Just defeated the butterfly, I knew it was supposed to be easy but didn’t expect it to be that easy. It was nice to go to an area where I was severely overpowered though. I may go to Sif now but I don’t feel ready to face the four kings yet.

No idea who the four kings are but I killed the butterfly and Sif a while back. Butterfly took me ages since I initially found it

I’ve just killed Sif on only my second try! I used Havel’s armour and just blocked his attacks with Havel’s shield and then hit him when he got close. Should have done it first time, but I got greedy.

Three bosses done today, so I’m going to stop for the day.

How difficult are the four kings? Should I go for them now or leave them until last?

Like any boss, Four Kings can be tough or easy depending on how you approach it. I think Seath, Nito, and Four Kings can all be very hard if you approach them incorrectly, or pretty straightforward if you've figured out a good way to tackle them.

Are you facing a choice between doing Lost Izalith, the Tomb of Giants, or New Londo next?

Fair, yes that’s my choice. I was thinking of leaving the Four Kings last, so I’d be at my most powerful.

I beat four kings on my first go, but only by rushing them and just hitting as quickly as I could. I think its a tougher fight the longer you let it go on, so I fluked it a bit.

Made progress. I did ask someone to post here to say I was playing and streaming this earlier, but I guess no one did?

I love that it turns out that Mr. I hate Dark Souls is actually probably the greatest Souls player that ever lived. Smashed the hardest boss fight stun locking them to death with his mighty weapon.

Bravo Pedz. :toot:

Has Pedz been hustling us and actually he is a Souls pro?! :D

I've managed to get a bit of free time this morning so going to press on with my Souls adventure, I think I'm heading into Sen's now if I remember rightly so come and join me if you want to see how it's done (or alternatively how to get rolled over by giant boulders constantly! :slol: )

Well I quickly forgot about my Dark Souls playthrough :oops:

Will be starting Demon's Souls this week though. I never played the original so I'm really looking forward to it.

Thanks to those who joined me for my stream earlier! We managed to make our way through Sen's, defeat the Iron Golem (first time :datass: ) and navigate the archers to activate the second bonfire in Londo.

All in all a pretty successful morning of Souls! :toot:
