Could it be the bug/glitch described here? http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/606312-dark-souls/60242926. I have yet to experience it myself, but it does sound rather odd. 

I've never seen such animation, only time I've ever pommeled someone in the ground was after grounding them with a 2H Great Club and doing the leaping attack which turned into a pommel.


Hmmm don't think that's it. It was a legit riposte animation, but a different one. I couldn't find a single piece of info on any alternative riposte techniques. I don't get it =/

Strong Magic Shield ... what the hell

I refuse to use that thing



So, any particular reason why I can't "magic weapon" or use any of the resins on my bandit's dagger?

You can't upgrade it via any elemental path as well. Probably it's counted as a special type weapon, such as the BK weapons.

Looks like an oversight, kinda how you can enchant the Dragon greataxe but not the greatsword.

Hm, if I kill Solaire early do I still get his equips?



           

The song in the final fight is pretty epic.



What are your stats people?

Yup. You can kill him anytime after NG+ starts, since he doesn't move from his inital spot for some reason (there's no way to do his quest line in NG+).

What is a good weapon to ascend to a divine weapon?
