i thought blighttown was quite easy,  beeing a beautyful designed place. (Even though the flies that respawn infinite were awful)   *thinks about an area i might have disliked*. .. hmh.. if any, the first area, with the bell gargoyle. i couldnt help to compare that place to Boletaria Castle the whole time, and the latter was just better in pretty much every way possible. (IMO! - in terms of atmosphere and artstyle)  another area i am dissapointed with, is Firelink shrine. it isnt supposed to be 'the new nexus', but it pretty much feels like it. something like the Hyrulian Plains like in Zelda OoT that connects places would have been much better imo.

but else then that, i love Lordran!

You don't get it do you? I'm not saying you're going to abuse that glitch for online purposes, but it's bound to happen. That glitch is also doable on PVP and that can and will screw up people who win against invading phantoms or screw up anyone who's invading because the people on the other side can just force the game out and the other person can't get the souls/humanity/covenant related items because of that glitch.

That's what pisses me off the most in this. This and the fact that while people are working hard to complete the game the legit way, there comes along glitchers breaking the game and it doesn't wonder me some of them will post "lol, Dark Souls was too easy".

Anyway, have fun till version 1.04.

@Crystalchild - Congrats on beating both of them again in such superb manner

@StokedUp - Just wait until you can upgrade to Havel's Shield. That thing's a fortress XD.

@Luvtospooge - I thought that Blightown was easier than Valley of Defilement. The only bothersome thing was the infinite respawnable mosquitoes on the swamp which were more of a nuisance than anything.

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. 

Hey guys as of now I'm soul level 126 if anyone needs assistance with anything feel free to add me on psn! (same name as my vg name)

I really hate it when you're going around the swamps of blightown and someone decides to invade you (and no, it wasn't Mildred ) >_>.

As if I didn't had enough dodging the stone-throwing giants I have to deal with a SOB armed with a Lightning Shotel +5 and a truckload of HP. In the end I killed both the invader and the stone giant in the same hit (with Chaos Great Fireball) but damn was that annoying.

TONS of slowdown in Blighttown >.>
