1. Does intelligence affect pyromancy? Does anything? 2. If someone invades my game and kills me, do I lose all of my souls? (I have been playing offline so far) 3. Basically, can anyone give me some tips about playing online as I'm going to plug in for the first time today. | ||

You lose your souls/humanity the same way you do when you die to a mob. Just walk over and pick it back up. Obviously the only thing you can't get back is the 1 humanity you spent to go in human form. 3. Online isn't much different from offline, aside from the signs and seeing the occasional person/bloodstain. Just watch for trollsigns on the ground. If you're in hollow form you cannot be invaded/summon other people to help you. You can however be summoned to help others if you decide to leave your soapstone on the ground. | ||

When I reached there, some NPC was hinting he wants to kill the firekeeper, so i killed him and took his humanity and item. Was that the correct method? Oh and I heard Blighttown has tons of poison stuff, should I get anything in particular to avoid that? All you need to know about Lautrec here. I like how you're ask after you killed him, lol? You should switch your armor to ones that have the highest poison resist. You WILL get poisoned, but you want the damage to be minimal. You literally just walk around poisoned in the swamp. Purple Moss Clumps/Blooming Purple Moss Clumps will cure poison, but no point in curing yourself every 5 seconds. On October 18 2011 04:35 Devolved wrote: 1. Does intelligence affect pyromancy? Does anything? Infernal_dream covered your other questions, but no, Intelligence does not affect Pyromancy. Details: Here and here. Deja Vuuuuu~ | ||

Anyhow so, I entered Blighttown and fought my way down a few stairs but there frikken things keep poisoning me. I managed to get the full red robe/armor thing. It seems to have high poison resistance, would that help? The Fire Keeper never talks. Unless you went the regular route and help regain her soul, she'll tell you she doesn't want to talk and leave her be. You're getting shot by mobs shooting toxic (different from poison) blow darts at you, you have to kill them. Those guys don't respawn. | ||

So humanity has two uses in this game, correct? One is to change into human form and the other is to kindle bonfires, which gives you more estis flasks when you rest at that particular bonfire? Also, what is the advantage of invading and/or helping in someone else's game? | ||

Helping people gains humanity if you kill boss, plus you get half the souls they get for every kill Invading gets humanity if you kill target as well as souls | ||

Is that more or less where its supposed to be relative to where I am. And whats the minimum recommended level before facing the final boss? My Warrior was in his late 30's when he finished Blight Town. On average, I'd say around Soul Level 70-80 for your first play through. It really varies. | ||

Just have some items that can cure toxic and itll make life a LOT easier. Valley of drakes is too early for you...not much to do there at that point in the game. | ||

I think you just might be missing some ladders or white fogs. | ||

Its a pain in the ass to find the proper ladders in that place. U kinda just have to keep exploring till u find the right ladders down or watch a vid. Its not really possible to explain the exact path. At the end of blight u ring the second bell which opens another area so the answer to ur first question is yes. | ||

Pyromancy is all about the item you use to cast it, it's not upgraded by any stat. 2. no, if you collect your body you get your souls and humanity back, but you are dead and if you want to be human you will need to use another reverse, using a humanity. 3. stay outa the forest :D otherwise if you've sinned you may meet the other end of my spear :D | ||

Upgrade your pyro flame to boost pyromancy spell damage. You can upgrade your pyro flame to +15, the ascend it and upgrade that to +5. Intelligence does not appear to affect pyromancy, although it does make your pyro flame R2 melee attack do more damage. | ||

It takes your health very very slowly so just keep an eye on it but don't worry about it too much. Follow the wall on the right, kill a couple of fire bugs and you'll soon find a well-deserved bonefire. | ||
