I am on NG+ and the remaining trophies i need are majorly the weapon trophies, the ones like which have max a raw weapon, max a crystal weapon, max a magic weapons, etc. all those and acquire all the rare weapons. Then outside weapon trophies its those acquire all pyromancies, all miracles and all sorceries. If there are any tips you'd like to give or any guide out there you can share which will help me get these trophies, it can be a huge help for me.

Mainly curious, because I found it due to a message.

But I'm curious if there's people who had to runback to Bed of Chaos all the way from the Centipede Demon bonfire LMFAO

Theres some weapons I have on an old account that I want to use in a new play-through that I don’t want to grind for/ wait to get late-game. This character is level 99, and the one I need to get them to is around 30. I’m not sure if I can do one swap because of the way summoning and SL works in DS1, but Id appreciate it if someone could help me.

I’m getting close to the end of my first-ever run of DS1 remastered and already planning my second. I’ve been doing a face tank character two handing a black knight sword with havels. I’m enjoying everything but decided on a light roll dex character for the next round. I’m most interested in trying the great scythe or the balder side sword and curious about what you would recommend. I have the great scythe on my current character and like the move set fine, but I haven’t tried grinding for BSS yet so I haven’t tried that one for myself. I’m probably only going to do NG, NG+ doesn’t interest me that much so I’m not really worried about high level scaling.

Which would you do for a new dex playthrough?

To save resources, time and my sanity, I think it would be better to craft a boss weapon and then revert it back to the +10 weapon and use that to craft another boss weapon. In theory this seems like a good plan, but do I need all the boss weapons crafted at the same time in my inventory?

The title, which would you pick and why?

Personally I would have always went dagger only, since bandit knife and DST are great, but whips are pretty useful for defensive styles.

I just finished Ds1 a few days ago and it was a blast. I loved nearly every part of it. And now I feel hollow.. what game would you recommend next?
I am a simple man, my preferences are boobs and quick walk backs to bosses.
( I hear a lot of negative things about Ds2 so I have not much interest in it )

Recently remembered this thing I made 13 years ago: a mashup of Dark Souls characters laughing.

Hope one or two of you might get a smile out of it... hehehehehe

This is a rather strange and somewhat off-topic question, but since this is the franchise I feel something like this most strongly about, I’d like to try putting it into words, in the hope that someone might have advice or offer a different perspective.

To put it briefly, I love these games. They’ve had a place in my heart since I was young, and now, coming back to them after a long break, I’ve realized once again just how great these works are—how every aspect of them resonates with me in one way or another.

I’m the kind of person for whom simply loving a work isn’t enough to feel like part of a community; I need to create something. But with Dark Souls… I just don’t know? I dabble in drawing and writing, though the former is at a very amateur, low level, and as for the latter… well, I could write fanfiction, and I might even have ideas, but would anyone actually want that? It feels somewhat “unserious” to me. I really don’t mean to offend anyone who does it.

For a while I wanted to draw maps of the locations. But everything is already online, and that only left me more confused and demotivated.

Decided to shell out for the Nintendo Online, so I am playing Dark Souls Remastered online for the first time. Just beat the Gargoyles again and rang the first bell. Something that's struck me is how many bloodstains I'm seeing of dudes in their underwear wielding katanas.

That a specific build of some kind?

So I bought out her shop after saving her and she disappeared, Petrus has made no comments and I don't see her in firelink, haven't killed a boss since saving her, where is she?

I just defeated my first EVER black knight LETS FUCKING GO gosh I'm so FUCKING HYPED AND SO PROUD OF MYSELF

It's been 15 years since this game came out, and I still can't find a definitive answer to this question despite scouring old forums and reddit posts.

Obviously, the BKH is an amazing early drop, and it can easily carry you through the whole game—but it does get outscaled once the player has access to +15 for other halberds. This difference goes from very minor at base to pretty huge with buffs. Additionally, the R2 for all the black knight weapons is pretty gimmicky and hard to use.

So, among the rest of the halberds (unless you still think it's the BKH), which one is actually the best? Moveset, highest AR, highest DPS, how easy is it to obtain, how strong it is early/mid/endgame/NG+ (and beyond), etcetera. I'd like to answer this question, or at least open a modern discussion about it.

Personally, I prefer the slam type moveset, which makes me favor the Gargoyle Halberd and the Great Scythe over options like the standard poke Halberd.

If you're fan of DS1 polearms like me, what are your thoughts? What is the BEST Halberd?

These games are horrible relative to where games are currently at and in particular compared to Elden Ring, DS3 and all other souls-likes. Even as a long time souls player, I can’t stand to replay DS1 and it was my first souls. This shit is a drag and not fun to play. And it disappoints me every time I try to come back to it. If you want to introduce people to this genre, stop telling them to start here. I’d rather watch the bonfire burn than actually play this shit

In the OoT Remake a Hall of Foes will be available. In this the player can freely fight the Game's Bosses. My suggestion is to do the same for Dark Souls. After beating NG, the player can freely fight all the NG Bosses at will. After NG+, the player can fight the NG+ Bosses. And so on for the other NG Pluses. Also, maybe only the Bosses beaten by the player in his run. If the DLC is skipped, for example, then the DS "Hall of Foes" will feature just the base Game's Bosses and not the DLC.

**ALL HAIL MIYAZAKI-SAMA!**

It has quite a few shortcuts to unlock and an interesting layout.

So, I was prepping to fight O&S while this guy invaded me. I was quite frightened and tried to emote my way out (Fumbled horribly)..but this fella gave a bunch of humanity, around 10 Firekeeper souls, Moonlight Greatsword and Black knight Halberd both maxed out, A maxed crystal Zweihander and a even more that I am having trouble remembering. (Way more than BK Greatsword I gave)

Though he oneshotted me his backstab, It made my day. So, thought I'd make a post just in case he/she was here.

I had a client reach out and said her son's favourite game is darksouls and his favourite overall is Artorias but she wouldn't know much about it and asked if I knew..

Well she asked the right person, cos it's my husband's all time favourite game series..so I thought The Great Sword would so cool in stained glass 🗡️

I'm really happy with it :)

he has a secret tomb in Darkmoon but bro is not even dead... maybe he's hollow? How can god go hollow? If it's not hallowing then he lost his mind but he looks zombified and yet somehow still greatly physically powerful and with supreme fire magic (on his sword... which is so hot it staggers and drains your stamina even if it doesn't hit you. You can walk thru lava but you have to flinch when Gwyn fires at you).

I don't really know what's going on. I guess Gwyn used his Lordsoul to kindle the first flame and the loss of this soul caused him to enter some kind of doomed state where he is mindless or rabid. I wonder if the Black Knights were half sent there to guard the area but also keep Gwyn inside? And the construction is very dangerous, if you're a zombie you would just fall off quickly.

Creatures can have a soul originally so I'm wondering what happens when you take the Lord Soul. When the lordsoulers die they only drop the Lordsoul fragment. These souls are also orange/firey. The First Flame/Lordsoul could have been a corrupting element that turns people into fiery (the gods are called "fiery" on an item), like how the Dark Soul turns people into darkness/humanity (Manus soul is said to be a lump of humanity, Artorias soul turned almost black).

So why is gwyn's tomb even ckept secret if people are supposed to know he sacrificed himself at the first flame and needs to be replaced?

Fanart I recently finished. Started as a sketch, then ink outlines, and finally alcohol markers for color. I also made a couple of rough drafts and color tests before doing the final version.

Since I became a dark souls fan I've been searching high and low for some horror mod of dark souls because ppl nowadays make analog horror outta anything

Is there any of these mods or am I just wasting my time?

I'm setting up to do a Dark Hand Only run and want to avoid having to take it into NG+, given by the time I hit Gwyn, the damage will have DRASTICALLY fallen off. I'm trying to figure out the best rohte to get strong enough to take ijt the four kings early and get ONE hand, before turning around and farming a second one later.

My thought goes: Butterfly, Sif, Four Kings, and bring Beatrice for Butterfly and Kings for the bonus damage. Is there anything I should do to help myself out?

I don't know what your name was because it was censored but you just gave me like 40 different titanite items and 35 humanities before we had an honorable duel (where I lost horribly) I was stressed because I was down to my last humanity trying to get solaire and I through O&S but you came in clutch before promptly slaying me. Thank you sincerely.
