Damn, the Gaping Dragon gains a truckload of HP in NG+ :-|. It's literally over 9000

He does drop a truckload of souls too though, 100K xD.

its funny how much some of they have, eh? i think it would be insane, facing bosses like.. (have no example right now xP) with starting gear lol. ^^

 

i am Firewheel/Nito/Priscilla/ThatTreeThingInIzalith/Gwyndolin/Gwyn/Seath away from finish it the second time. .. tho' ill spend much time in farming this playthrough, and dieing in frustration when trying o cut seaths tail off lol. :D

 

Centipede Demon was funny, he oneshotted me with his jump, but overall, he was quite easy, not a single flask on the second try. Some of the bosses should have really been improved in more then just Str/Health.. poor Sif, he deserved to be more of a Pain, imo.

 

edit ~ by the way, i joined and maxed (well, until i got the armor and sword) Darkwraith..and they are, by far, my favourite Covenant right now, since they are the only ones that explain what the heck is going on in that game. xD.. but well, left them to join Chaos, i wonder when the egg will grow (ewww... but i have the cure stocked up ;P) i am R2 there i think (since i got the second pyromancy spell from her) but i didnt see any shortcut to Izalith, nor can i buy spells from that Eggy merchant.. ;/

You can only buy spells from the egg merchant when you're part of the Chaos covenant and have the Egg status. I'll be joining Darkwraith this run as well (i'll try to join all the remaining covenants and get their levels up for gear), but my favourite so far is Chaos. Chaos Fire Storm is an heck of an amazing pyromancy

Well, if I can reach your playthrough progress when you get to Seath, I can try to help you cut off his tail (if we manage to go into a session). Just be prepared, it's going to be a hell of a lot harder this time around, since you won't have any room for mistakes whatsoever.

How much HP does your character have? I'm still a bit low-ish in HP (793 at 20 vitality), so there's a lot of things that can one shot me if i'm not careful.

i have to have the egg grown first? that explains alot.

my Char has lots of Vitality (:P), dunno the exact number. my Stats are Pretty much 30 stamina, around 50 STR, and around 45ish Vitality.  have around Soul Level 134~.. which is quite a lot i'd say. but yeah, there is much equip and spells still to be bought, which will cost a shitload of souls. I have to admit though that i farmed quite a nice ammount of souls  in Anor Londo (Silver Knights) since i wanted their weapons.,where i grinded a lot of Souls. (they give quite a bunch on NG+)

@Seath's tail; cutting this thing off alone without any help is the last thing i have to do on my Checklist, i guess it will still be a challenge, because - (i think) like last time, his tail attack will oneshot me. but yeah, i'd be more than happy to be able to pull that off on my own. =)

45 Vitality?? :-| That's almost 1.3K HP....double than what my character currently has....I really need to start levelling up my Vitality >_>.

Also an heads-up. Spells, miracles and pyromancies accumulate from each previous playthrough. Meaning you can have a lot of copies of the same magic and that will give you extra casts. I wish I had known that on NG since I missed on a lot of spells, but now I'm stocking up on as much as I can. 99 Chaos Fire Storms here I go

The problem with cutting Seath's tail is that the sword only appears after finishing the fight. Meaning you have to cut off the tail and win the fight to get the item.
