There's two NPCs which you can give your extra loot. One is the petrified woman in the ruins near Majula, after you unpetrify her with Branch of Yore. Any gear you unload on her, she'll equip.

The other NPC, and the better choice, is Gavlan. He'll buy off your extra pieces of loot for some nifty souls. You'll find him first on No Man's Wharf and he'll move to Door of Pharros after finishing the first area.

I found Gavlan. No Man's Wharf was no cake walk, I had to switch to shield plus sword and relearn how to fight that way. I forgot that stamina regenerates really slow with a shield up. But too many opportunities to fall in water or off things, and enemies are too fast for slow casting spells. (Plus for some reason the targeting is screwed up in this area, I practically have to stand in front of them to lock on)

Spells worked fine on the spider things anyway, easy souls. Hurray for spell merchant, I have a good arsenal now and 7 spells slots. The boss was easy with the new spells. Unfortunately the spell merchant was gone after I got the pyromancy flame. Now I can't upgarde it. Gavlan vanished as well.

I searched everywhere, found some secret walls, but no branch of yore. So I'm back to Sinner's exile or Grave of saints. No man's wharf didn't lead anywhere new. I'm currently in Grave of saints. What's up with being summoned as a grey phantom. It happened again. I go on exploring that level, kill some rats when someone else comes up and hits me. I dodge, not interested in pvp, I kill some more enemies maybe he'll get the hint I want co-op. He's still intent on killing me, I dodge, run away, heal, further explore the level. He's got a bridge down and a waterfall going. He comes at me again, dodge again, keep on looking around. This goes on for a few times until the classic souls glitch, 1 hit backstab kill from 20 meters away.

I'll try that rat infestion boss again later with anti poison herbs and regain spell uses items equipped.
