FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

This whole time I've been waiting to get the Pharalus (or whatever) bow. Not because it's awesome but more of I just wanted something with an S rank.

I didn't know where it was exactly I just knew it was in the Darkroot. So after poking around there, beating Sif and searching everything and not finding the bow I looked it up. Looks like the computer enemy with the fog ring and the bow drops it. Too bad she fell off the cliff before I could kill her (I was one hit away too, she rolled backwards and poof).

Oh well, will have to get it in NG+ but I wish they really would fix that. if enemy dies in unreachable place, put loot up in reachable location for ALL loot.

That's something that also happened with Demon's Souls, which made Crystal Gecko hunting a huge pain, especially those that were on small ledges (5-3 Crystal Gecko for Pure Faintstone i'm looking at you) who had a tendency to suicide before you could get to them >__>

Black Bow of Pharis is a good bow, but for ranged weaponry the Avelyn is basically the ultimate bad-ass, even though it's a crossbow.

A good thing for anal sex.



I'm level 64, what place should I camp on to be summoned and help against a boss?

I'm sitting near the Gaping Dragon for at least 5 minutes and no luck so far...

Ornstein & Smough sounds about right.

64 is too high for Gaping Dragon. First playthrough's normal levels for Gaping are about 25-30, anything more than that is overkill and overlevel. Like Blunty said, 64 is more appropriate for Ornstein and Smough on Anor Londo (average levels are between 50 - 70 there).

ah, I didn't know the level limits also affected white signs. I'll try there, thanks.

I think Im gonna give up trying to Platinum trophy this game since it's so hard to find PvP for all those medals that are required (Sunshine and Darkmoon covenants). :( I don't have much time until Skyrim comes out either.
