What is the black gulch area? It's after which boss/area? 

Skip the cave with the skeletons, i think that if their is some sort of divine ember we should wait for that before going in. Instead their is a path to the boss of the huntsman cropse and the area after that has an insane amount of loot. 


Black Gulch is after the Gutter. Go down the well in Majula to Grave of Saints first (use Silvercat Ring).

And as for the cave with skeletons, just run past the skeletons and kill the necromancer first. Easy.

I got my Uchigatana to +10 yesterday. Didn't take it out for a spin yet. I was doing PvP in Belfry Luna yesterday and killed two invaders at once twice with my Uchi :) Almost did it a third time, but after I killed the one guy, the other one killed me. The first invader group I killed, I finished the last guy with a jump attack which was awesome.


Ahh is the cave a new area? Or just a random cave wit loot. I still am stuck with a +7 Falchion does a mere 180 damage to the belfry Luna boss. Three Gargoyles is fine but they respawn -.-. 

The cave is an alternate path to the boss in huntsman's copse, doesn't lead anywhere new, just access to a few items along the way.

I went to the wrong boss first in Huntsman's copse, defeated the charriot at undead crypt. That seems to be a dead end. Some dwarf wants to know if I have a taste for blood, I said no, and went to the other end. That boss was pretty hard, main targets easy, skeleton wave doable, spinning wheel wave impossible to dodge all and find time to sqeeze off a spell. With an ally it was fine.

I found a girl selling 10 titanite at the entrance of harvest valley. Not enough but together with what I found along the way at least my priest chime and robe are up to +6 now.

You can find a few titanite chunks in Black gulch. I thought I had enough to get sorcerer's staff to +9, but it's only +8, I still need 2 more chunks. I did get quite a few large titanite shards there. Maybe you have better luck with titanite chunk drops. It's pretty easy to farm the enemies there, once you get rid of the poison spewing statues they don't come back as long as you don't die and stay in the area. It's a relatively small area, quick to reset at the bonfire to try again for more drops.
