Died 3 times in tomb of giants before I found out about the skull lanterns.

lol, theres also a helm that does the same thing.
i dont remember where u get it though.

Lost Izalith by the door where you murder Solaire, it's the one on his head.

sunlight maggot helm

and its on the back side of the door, so you rather have to spend the 30 humanity to open the door and save solaire or kill the titanite demon then go kill solaire (even solaire even made it that far i guess lol).

if you do the 30 humanity route, you can save solaire to help you fight against gywn at the very end, pretty cool actually, though i've personally never gotten that far with solaire

its funny

when pvping at the kiln if some kid is lagging like hell or bm'ing just go and summon him (his sign is just after the 3rd black knight on the thin walkway you cross).

also he tanks gwyn ez, on ng+ solaire was still 3/4 life when i finished off gwyn

i'm sure he can tank, oddly these npc summons are beasts.
i mean maneater mildred vs quelaag, she took so much lava damage like it was nothing.

but that aside, i just raped gargoyles on my SL 1 char.
1 try, took em down, swinging my battle axe like a mad man

did not know so many people summoned for taurus demon either.
SL 1 haha

Wtf was with the ending?

"Congrats, you linked the fires." *Credits*

And Gwyn was a major pain in the ass to kill

Overall, I thought Demon's Souls was much, much better than this game. Only thing I liked more in this game was the open world. At least Demon's Souls had somewhat interesting lore, cutscenes, etc. The ending just plain pissed me off.
