Demon's Souls - Atlus & From Software's Action RPG - October 6

The named BPs don't regenerate. There is one of these in every world (not every level). All of them but the one from level 4 drops a unique weapon (which you need to get that one trophy). They also give you lots of souls.
 
Thanks ChibiJosh.

Alright guys what I am looking for when I am after a primevil?

I looked in 4-2 where I found the bow and nothing... it is pure black WT the phantoms are all there.


*edit... nevermind it still was not all black.. the phantoms were showing. i checked at level 1-1 the
gate
.


Finally that is a good way to check. I was thinking i was pure black due to the phantoms showing.

[quote name='gunm']It's not really clear what exactly is going to happen after the event is over. Will Atlus reset the WT to default/white? I dunno, but offhand I think that's what's going to happen. If you're going to play online, then you might as well just play to have fun and not worry too much about WT/CT. If you're pushing for a specific playthrough or have specific goals you're in the middle of trying to accomplish, I guess you can just play offline until the event is over.[/QUOTE]

You can play offline? Serious question.

Also, what soul level should I be at to fight the black phantom in 1-1? General range. Using PFS, club, and 1-1 helmet and leggings from Dreglin or whatever his name is.

I did the same..

however I logged off. Went out, pulled my access point. Logged in turned on the game and it was almost black again.. do that twice and its pure black again for me.

FYI

So in reality you could get both white and black WT events knocked out this weekend... hmmm..

Log off and log back in. After killing the BPs (and getting them back to neutral-ish), I logged out and logged back on and it was back to black again.

Sounds like they're just subtracting three from the WT every time you log in.
 
If I kill a named black phantom will that NPC not show up in White WT for whatever I may be able to do with them then? And if so are there any I should avoid killing?
 
No the black phantom NPC is separate from the body form NPC, they're independent of each other.

So, explain this to me cause I haven't even logged in yet. Could I log in, every stone turns pure black WT, then log off and kill the primeval demons. Then log back in, get everything back to pure black just by logging in, and keep going?

I am not sure what happens when you play offline right now, but getting it white or nuetral and logging out and in will bring it darker again, yes.

I killed two primevils and some phantoms and mine was above nuetral. I didnt try to get it to white, but I imagine you could.
 
I killed Miralda. Scirvir wasn't there though - perhaps because I killed the the primeval demon on 2-1 so it wasn't black enough anymore.

I needed to turn the game off and on a few times to get my worlds actually black.

If you're asking if you can kill the primevals multiple times, you can't. If you're asking if you can get things back to pure black after killing the primevals, you can.
 
[quote name='Snake2715']scirvir is a healing biatch..

I need to rely on my magic more I think and less on my bow.[/QUOTE]

I just
poisoned him
. He isn't as aware as Satsuki... and no need risking one of us falling off the cliff.
 
Hell yeah! I have finally have the ability to use a bow. Time to grind the first reaper.

(also just got my crescent falchion fully upgraded)
 
Executioner Miralda is a sneaky one. She just jumped me from behind and totally caught me unawares. No big deal, considering I can one-shot the black phantoms before her.

yeah I dont have that yet... I do have to say my great axe + 6 is sick though I
knocked him right off the edge.. then I quite and reloaded and it dropped his talisman right where he started at


Know the guy at
4-1 is somewhat tough. I walked in with my axe and it knocks him over so I wait for him to start to get up and smack him again... I had him within a sliver the first time out and then the skeleton came up from behind me and slaughtered me... i forgot all about him
.

Miralda wasnt have bad, took her out last night.
 
Wow, what the fuck. The Primeval Demon in 2-1 never appeared for my alternate character. I know I was in pure black too since I saw BP Scirvir in 2-2. How lame. :bomb:

no the black phantoms can show in an almost pure black state...
 
[quote name='Snake2715']no the black phantoms can show in an almost pure black state...[/QUOTE]

Regardless if it's Pure Black or NEAR Pure Black, that Demon should've showed up. I reloaded my game multiple times to get back to Pure Black and that stupid Demon still hasn't appeared.
 
Hmmm... So if I want to take care of white events later I should lay off the BT stuff... But I'm tempted to try Satsuki anyway though I think he'll slaughter me. I can barely handle the BF skeleton that showed up. I just ground out some more levels from 4-2 last night. Then I farmed a few spiderstones. Finally in pure black I get them occasionally :roll:. I should probably try to make that sword of searching dealie.

Any tips on Satsuki before I take him on? Also, the only white thing in that world is to get that sword off the stalagmite, right? I got that earlier when it was just randomly near white.

Tips for Satsuki: Don't fight him.

As for WT events, the sword (Makoto) and normal Satsuki (who doesn't do anything but attack you anyway) show up.

I tried lots of stupid stuff. For Satsuki the thing that worked for me was just to stay on top of him. And if you get him low and he starts to back away... RUN to him or else he will eat a full health grass... and keep doing it forever.
 
[quote name='Bezerker']Beat Miralda & Scirvir. Having issues with Satsuki though. I get him down to about 30% and then he heals himself 100%.[/QUOTE]
Like the other poster mentioned you have to be super aggressive so that you can attack him before he finishes the item consuming animation. He will NEVER run out of healing items so if you can't interrupt him, he's impossible to beat.
 
Yea, i gave up on him for the time being. I went back to 1-3 and proceded to get raped many times by the two Phantom Fat Officials that spawn on both sides of you.

But hey, I rescued Yuria and Biorr, so at least I did something productive.
 
Finally got my Soldier's Trophy (all unique weapons) now if I could get a FOE's ring from someone lol. Eh I've just gotta grind out mercury, sucker, and marrow stones and do a few more playthroughs and I'll get plat.
 
[quote name='IRHari'] Eh I've just gotta grind out mercury, sucker, and marrow stones [/QUOTE]

I have fully upgraded weapons for all those. Though, with about 100 levels difference between us, I doubt we'll be able to meet.

Lol, you just don't want to go pure black CT. :p

I'm 216 so I guess I can get on and give you w/e you need. After I kill you, that is. :twisted:
 
[quote name='IRHari']sweet, lemme know when/where lol. i'm 205, just PM me bro, im up to go whenever you are.[/QUOTE]
You gonna be on later? My GOW III demo is at 55% and I'm watching the world series atm. Also, do we need to be within 10 levels of each other? I might actually be 217 since I killed a few demons last night, can't remember.
 
I heard after Level 100 the range is like, 25. I'm 208 now actually, so I think we should be ok. Just PM me and we can coordinate where to meet, I'll be on CAG all night, my PS3 is right in front of me. Just watchin the Phils rape the Yanks ;)

Word. Yeah, NY not looking so hot tonight. Slow working and falling behind in the count A LOT.

Wow, amazing bunt; Yanks packed with Phils lol. ROFL, this dude is going to walk in a run, just watch. Bam, two nothing.
 
It's really odd. None of my worlds are black. The only one in BWT is Boleteria and that's because I died in human form five times tonight.

I can't remember his name, but the black phantom on the bridge to Old King Doran ... I killed him, but the prick fell off the edge. I died at the boss, went back and the drop is still not there. Uber frustrating.

On another note, decided to invade a few games for the first time. The result: 1-1.

The first guy did his best Forrest Gump impersonation. He ran as far as his legs would take him and inevitably plunged to his death. Second attempt did not go so well. Just my luck, the game I invaded happened to have 2 other players in soul form assisting. I was swiftly annihilated.

There is no phantom there... There's a black knight though

The other guy shit his pants and tried keeping his distance with magic. I ran him down with ease using a dark silver shield +5 and swept through his shield three times to finish him off. Large Sword of Moonlight is seriously OP in PvP.

The guy
that moans about how his father is a dragon demon then hands me the mausoleum key, slumps over and fades away.

Apparently I can't tell the difference between and black knight and a black phantom. lol
 
I did one of my only invading someone else earlier. The guy had someone with him, who cast anit-magic field as soon as I entered. As you know, I'm pretty much strictly magic, and I had firestorm ready to go. So, I start running away, and the guy stupidly follows me without the phantom, I get out of the anti-magic field range and I unleash firestorm. Guy dies.

IRHari had it right.

Also, about the drop, you can get it in 3-2.

Very frustrating. Oh well. I'll grab it in 3-2. It's a love hate thing with this game. Today was all hate. :bomb:

You have a large ax?

You can hit him and it will knock him down... right when his animation shows his left hand up by his left knee swing again. He stands right up into it and gets knocked over again. If you can time it right you can finish him without taking a hit.

The one thing is to get the skeleton out of there before you do that.. you may have to cast the cloak to lure the skeleton away first without him attacking you. This gives you the entire area to fight in.

if you kill a major phantom like that and they fall off. Quit the game (through the menu) and reload it.. it will drop their bodys (and loot) at there starting point. Dont leave the area. Worked for me on Scirver after I knocked him over a ledge!

Anybody have any tips on how to beat phantom Rydell? I've tried beating him with adjudicator's shield and my crescent falchion with some arrows before hand but he's just way too strong. Even with using my shield he takes away a fourth of my health per hit and since he has about a million hit points there is no chance I can beat him in close quarters. I was thinking of maybe getting the dark silver shield since I'm guessing the damage that is getting through is mostly magic but other than that I have no idea what to do.

... and I still have to beat Scirvir although I'm guessing I could at least get him to jump off a ledge or something.
