So...yeah...my Black Knight Halberd +4 has 436 Attack Power....

WHOOT O:

thats insane! :D . my Meatcleaver only has like 250. where did you say youve got the halbert xD?

 

Killed Smourg and Ornsteinn.. FINALLY.. but i have to admit, i used the solaire to help me.. <.<.. but dead is dead.

Staying in Front of Nito's gate RIGHT NOW, but i think i backtrack to kill whats left. (Hydra's, Discharge) .. oh and i can teleport between certain bonfires now, hurrhurr.

From a BK on the Darkroot Basin, it was carrying a spear. I just need 2 more Twinkling Titanites so it becomes +5 and it will have a whooping 475 attack power. 

I haven't gone to Sen's fortress yet, i'm exploring all the side areas before, now I'm onto the Valley of Drakes and afterwards to New Londo ruins. I can't wait to test my spear against Smourg and Ornsteinn

i wonder, but i think 435 str spear will totally own their faces, since my meatcleaver was just half as strong, and much slower. xD

Sens Fortess is a laugh though,  the only prob was the traps, so yeah, you may die one or two times because some rock is falling on you, but once you know how it works, its easy as hell. And the boss is also a laugh, he has only one fatal move, and that one can easilly be avoided.

Are the traps damage mitigated by how much defense your character has? Because i'm currently sitting at 175 (the armoured zombies in Undead Burg barely scratch me).

i DO think so, but the damage isnt the problem, rather the effect. A rolling Rock will take you back down, and those Guillotine things will just throw you off the ledges.

and other stuff like spikes or Arrows, well, yeah, they arent too strong to start with, the problem's if you run into a trap, while having enemy's in front of you, its good bye. But just watch the ground (for Switches that activate Arrowtraps) and be carefull with those pendulums, and you will be fine.

Important For Sens Fortress: theres only 1 bonfire, and i guess you want it. its located as follows: Once you are reaching the second stage (which is outside), just go to your left, there should be a platform where Firebombs are thrown at. run through after the fire's gone, up the stairs, to the second platform. On this one, theres a spot where the fence is broken, which means you can jump down the ledge. Do so, since you wont die there, you will land on the bonfire area instead.

Thanks for the location of the bonfire . 

I'll be careful around the traps, or at least i'll try
