      Re: Demon's Souls (PS3)

      If you know my whinging from a couple pages back you'll laugh at what I'm about to say

      After struggling to come to terms with some of the game design and difficulty, I'm actually finding the game not too hard now. Not easy, but nothing frustrating like before.

      After finally working out the Tower Knight, I breezed through (sorry don't know name/level) the caverns type level with all the narrow areas and killed the big sludge type boss on my first go.

      Also worked quickly through another stage up to the big spider and killed him first go!

      Woooohooooo!! I'm not terrible like I thought and am no longer frustrated

      Also, I'm a thief (SL 31 I think). Am I going ok by levelling up my dagger (currently +7 I think)? Or is there another melee weapon I should focus on using?

          Don't know how much you've played since making this post, but the only thing that dagger is gonna be good for is getting your sharpstone trophy. Otherwise I'd advise you upgrade to a spear, rapier or curved sword immediately. Daggers are a secondary weapon at best.

            Thanks mate, I'll go grab a sword. The others seem too big and too slow compared to the dagger.

            Oh and that guy that keeps popping up and playing tricks on you so you die and he wants your treasure etc, I killed the bastard. Got sick of him :P

              I kept him alive because I want the heavy arrows he sells. Also, where do I find a broken sword?

                I got it as a 1-1 drop or a 5-2 treasure.

                  Developing your build is the difference between a difficult time completing this game and Armageddon. This time through I focused on a Thief build and put points in areas that benefit him (Dex and Endurance). I used weapons that those stats benefit from too (Bows, Daggers, and Asian Swords). This play through is going much eaiser and I am unlocking more things/people. Just found the witch and freed the other mage from the tower. Next up the Garbage Dump area.

                  SL 90 BTW.

                    Can you zoom in and out manually with the camera? Meaning, can I choose how far away the camera is from behind my character? Or is it automatic?

                      Its automatic but you can zoom and out when you use your bow/crossbow.

                        Re: Demon's Souls (PS3)

                        Any hints for killing the flying sting rays? And further in that same level, how to manage the stairwells with the ghosts that shoot laser beams at you? I breezed through to that part (up to and after the big fat boss) but keep dying on those ghost things.

                        Also, all the messages that say 'you can summon here'. What do they mean? they are way passed the actual loading points.

                        Thanks again

                        (This game has been in my PS3 for weeks without change...)

                          Lock on to them and shoot them with your bow or soul arrows. They're tricky; often you have to wait for them to "face up" before you can hit them; but overall they're cake.

                          And further in that same level, how to manage the stairwells with the ghosts that shoot laser beams at you? I breezed through to that part (up to and after the big fat boss) but keep dying on those ghost things.
                          If you mean right after the fat guy, just run in and kill the reaper (if you have a decent weapon he's only 2 or 3 hits). The ghosts will all die. This is also one of the best farming spots in the game, btw. An easy 3800 souls or so each time.

                          After that, there's two more reapers and more ghosts. If you're talking about that part, just run right up to them and kill them before they have a chance to shoot you with their light beams.

                          Also, all the messages that say 'you can summon here'. What do they mean? they are way passed the actual loading points.
                          It means if you're in soul form, you can drop your blue stone there; if you're in body forum, you can summon there. Yeah, they're scattered, not just at the beginning of levels.

                            I'm breezing through NG+ at the moment with my SL78. I'm using the blueblood sword with a knight's shield +8. I noticed I get invaded like every 5 minutes and it's quite annoying. I would be on a roll and kill most black phantoms then I would die from the next. I also have Firestorm and Second chance as my spells/miracles. Second chance is so helpful and saved me so many times. Firestorm is pretty much a waste for me as of now. My magic isn't high enough for it to do a great deal of damage. My stats are pretty much 18 for everything, but 28 vitality, 30 endurance and 20 luck.
