Why do the knights in Lothric Castle hit so hard.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

The better to slay you with, my dear.

Try using Rapport on them, it's very helpful. Except the one with the greatsword near the dual dragons, for some reason it doesn't work on him.

Kinda running Qual. Though I could probably respec if I wanted since I've stockpiled a ton of sorceries.

Speaking of dragons, I didn't get anything for killing the duo (who apparently share a life bar). I feel cheated.

Speaking of the Lothric knights, I love how some of them have red eyes like the ones from Demon's Souls.

In fact, Lothric as a whole is just basically Boletaria all over again.

I was having a good fight against the Dragonslayer Armour and then I get thrown off the bridge for an instant kill.

That's great.

That fight is one of the easier ones with the only thing pissing me off being the things in the distance shooting magic at you. Shit's annoying.

Yeah I just died to it.

And I can't find Sirris's summon sign for some reason. I almost did a respec but didn't go through with it, so shouldn't she be here?

I actually found Dragonslayer Armour to be one of the tougher bosses.

I managed to beat it immediately after rebuilding my stats to pure Dex. Helps that I have a +10 Sharp Lothric Knight Sword.

Now in the Grand Archives. Kind of labyrinthine here.

Welcome to this game's version of Duke's. It has a really cool boss at the end though.

It'd be really cool if the boss didn't have 50 bajillion soldiers outside his front door that I have to slither past to get to him.

I really wish they dumped bonfires right outside boss rooms. Stupid design decision to not do so.

Sounds like you missed a shortcut. There's an elevator you can take that's not far from the Dragonslayer Armor bonfire that takes you right to him. It's to the right of the boss gate.

Worse comes to worst, it's usually possible to just run screaming through the halls to the fog gate. It doesn't give you any time to prepare before the fight, but you'd be surprised how many enemies you can just kind of slip by.

It's been fun.

BTW, did you finish the sorcerer guy's questline? Doing so before the boss allows you to summon him. He's a lot more useful in this fight than the other summon.

The twins are actually one of my favorite bosses. Lothric's dialogue is really memorable and the music is nice. Friede would be up there if not her garbage second stage.

I found the twins even tougher than the Armour :D

After a break to play Control: The Foundation, I went back to my new run of Dark Souls III last night. Defeated Sulyvahn on my second try, summoning Anri and Gotthard because I didn't on my first run (almost had him on the first try, got him down to his last sliver of HP, but I wasn't paying attention to my own and the clone got me). Made through lower Anor Londo (do we still spoiler that?) and it wasn't as bad as I remembered (silver knight archers can still get in the sea though).

Next I guess is upper Anor Londo and Aldrich, who I also remember being a pain in the dick.

Oh my fucking god, the desert pyromancer in the earthen peak ruins is SO bullshit, she two shots me with her stupid close range pyromancy combo and i just die.

She's almost as annoying as those angels, I didn't know how to make them stop until I looked it up.

EDIT: I see From really wants you to suffer in this DLC, because oh my god this demon prince fight. I should have known better than to assume it was over.

Ok never mind that wasn't so bad really, provided you have a black knight weapon. Took me way less tries than Friede or Nameless King and honestly on the whole I'd say this fight is less bullshit than either of those.

The Princes are dead. The ashes of the Lords burn.

And now I'm at the Kiln already. Isn't there a Ringed City or something?

You have to go to the Painted World and beat the boss of that DLC to get access to Ringed City. There's also a few optional bosses I don't think you've beaten yet. Have you explored Smouldering Lake and the Consumed Garden?

I've beaten the boss at Smouldering Lake and I've done a bit of the Consumed King's Garden. Right now I'm trying to see if I got all the Estus Shards.

It's 15 estus flaks with all the shards and it goes up to +10 with all the undead bone shards.

Once you beat the boss of the Consumed Garden, there's a hidden wall at the back that takes you to another area and another boss. You also get a gesture that you need to use in front of the dragon corpse in Irithyll dungeon to get to yet another area.

I have 14 Estus and a maxed out bonfire. I just need to figure out where the last shard is.
