Oh man, Shrine of Amana was such a fucked up place after they released the game. Damn near impossible to get through. They nerfed the hell out of those casters.

I still hate those casters. I can't believe they were harder than this

[gunslinger_burrito]

Really? The casters are the weinerest enemies in that place. It's the damn troll that gives me a hard time.

I need more magics.

[MrNovember]

They're not that bad when I go back there now but the first time I went through I just kept running out of stamina trying to roll or block and had like 0 magic defence
Ridiculously frustrating

Well.
I got killed by Pinwheel.

I found that I can just run past their "bolts" or whatever they're called. They track pretty poorly. My magic defense if pretty crap, too. I need to find what areas are good for soul farming (areas that aren't the last areas of the game, as I'm not to some of them yet) so I can level some more.

[MrNovember]

My favourite places to farm early on were Heide's Tower (like really early) or Iron Keep.
Undead Crypt is great if you've gotten that far. Spoiler:

NSFW: show

In Undead Crypt if you haven't broken all the big grave stones you can farm the guys that spawn infinitely when you get close to the grave stone. Only limiting factors will be your weapons and number of estus flasks

[gunslinger_burrito]

Rad. I'll hit the Keep again. I want to get the Flame Weapon pyromancy, but Sinner's Rise NG+ is rough. The regular-ass dudes there do so much damage, not to mention those big bastards in the water. Fuck those guys.

Edit: On a side note, do any of you DS2 guys know what area a bonfire ascetic affects? For example, if I use one on the first bonfire of an area, does it only affect the area up to the next bonfire?

[LOCOPELAND]

Yeah, I believe it only effects the area you use it at.

My soul farming technique is invading the shit outta people. >:)

[LOCOPELAND]

Also, poison arrows make quick work of most enemies. I cheese the fuck outta a lot of them in NG+ haha

This actually works really well too. A couple times while I was PvPing I ended up with well over 100k souls and didn't even notice where I got them
