There are also ''eight'' Titanite Slabs in the game (''fifteen'' with the DLC's), and while they're still pretty hard to find, that's a lot more than were available per playthrough than in previous games.

Downplayed in that, unlike previous games, nothing drops Slabs, so those eight/fifteen are all you get per playthrough. Boss soul weapons and weapons that upgrade with Twinkling Titanite also now require a Slab for their final upgrade, when they didn't in previous games.

The way to counter this is that any enemy of which there is a finite amount in the game will ''always'' have the very last one drop whatever you haven't gotten from the others yet, so you won't need to go through another playthrough.
* Fell off a ledge into a BottomlessPit? Thankfully, you'll still have a bloodstain, near the location you fell from.
* The Ring of Favor and Protection gives quite a few powerful bonuses [[TooAwesomeToUse at the expense of breaking should you ever remove it]]. Trying to switch it out causes a pop-up window to appear, warning that it will break and thus preventing players from ever accidentally removing it.

* Phantom summons are easier, and Small Soapstone Sign Shades can be temporarily summoned even after defeating an area's boss.
* You can temporarily resurrect [=NPC=]s you've killed for fixed amount of souls.
* You can bypass the four Old Ones if your Soul Memory is over one million at the Shrine of Winter. [[note]]At least the first time. Subsequent playthroughs require an additional 1 million souls for each NG+ cycle.[[/note]]

* Human Effigies are far more common than Humanity in the first game. Making gradual loss of health from hollowing more manageable (although they don't heal you like Humanity).
