If you're sitting at a bonfire, Reversing Hollowing and Kindling each cost 1 Humanity from your rating. Reversing Hollowing turns you human, which allows you to summon both NPCs and other players but also opens you up to invasion from other players. You'll know you're human because your appearance beneath your armor will change and a white glow will appear over your Humanity rating. Being human essentially opens up all the active multiplayer features of the game. Kindling a bonfire increases your max amount of Estus charges from that bonfire by 5, stacking up to 3 times once you progress further in the game. You do need to be human to Kindle. | ||

Generally speaking, i'd highly suggest to never be in human form except to kindle a bonfire. Especially in beginner areas there are a lot of dickwads who did a low level playthrough and have basically absurd gear who will slaughter you remorselessly. There are some items that you will miss by not being human, though. At some points in the game you will be invaded by NPC phantoms if you are human, which gives you some stuff that mostly looks stylish. Though i would completely ignore this on your first playthrough, unless you want to look up the exact locations. You can simply not afford to constantly be human, you need your humanities to kindle stuff. | ||

If you need to find out which enemies provide passive humanity, just search for "farming humanity" in google and it should show you exactly who provides how much. | ||

Its actually pretty good, but it really depends on the time of day i think. The most consistant places for invasions is still the forest and the townshit, but that doesn't mean you won't get a random invasion here and there along the way. I saw someone twinking the other day when i was showing my friend the game, actually made me happy. EDIT: okay anyone else suddenly finding mouse support is gone? | ||

According to the DS subreddit, it's as good as it ever was. Plenty of people to invade/get invaded by. Granted, I haven't played it since the update so I'm just going on hearsay. | ||

Also, I bought new computer after I stopped playing DS, so I'm ready for new visual experiance!! Except for Blighttown.I wanted to play new game as a heavy knight in shining armor with a shield, but I always end up fighting bosses naked for max mobility with 2h weapon or two hand grip for max dmg. Habits be damned! | ||
