    Sanctus was irreplaceable for my SL1 runs.

    I got myself Cursed (belive it or not) and used Dusk Crown Ring, this made my HP 25% of it's original value. I went low HP to activate Read Tearstone and used PW. That way I got 90% damage boost, extra Pyro casts and with Sanctus on my back I didn't have to worry about PW killing me as it outhealed PW HP drain.

    I just discovered that the Light spell is amazing with an egghead. The glowing orb disappears into your egg and makes it look like the entire egg is shining. It's mesmerizing.

    I was in the asylum for the second time, aggro'd one of the black knights and Oscar at the same time. The bk killed Oscar first before turning on me..

    On the Xbox, going into a Party will kick you out of Dark Souls for being in a chat.

    Being on Xbox Live Chat will not, however Discoveries you only made recently. - Page 30 639795459

    Like Oscar aggro'd the BK directly? Not just collateral damage?

    PlasticandRage wrote:There isn't a real need for all kinds of things we've got, but it at least would make the shield worth using. As it is now, there really isn't much of a use for it. With only 2 HP per second, and second rate defensive stats, there's just no reason to use it at all. 2 HP is pretty much useless in a fight. Nowhere near enough to rely on. I think either slightly increasing it's healing rate as it upgrades, or an increase in the shield's defensive stats, would be in order to at least make it a viable choice.

    I've been using it coupled with replenishment for the majority of my current playthrough, and now that I'm to a place in the game where I'm buffing my weapon also, it's just outclassed by other shields that don't require the supplementation of a spell to be useful. I'd be ecstatic with its current rate if it defended me a little bit better, but its got the double wammy there, of being a poopy defensive tool and having an ability that's just not as good as some other shields.

    I like Rynn's idea. If it had the same rate, or even slightly less, as replenishment, but couldn't be stacked, I don't think it would be OP. Even with the supplementation of replenishment it's not really. I've been doing it all along, and it hasn't broken my PvP experience at all. It helps to negate the tactics of really defensive players who like to inflict small amounts of damage at a time, and then back off, as well as status afflictions like bleed and poison, but it doesn't really help at all against really offensive players. It's a nice addition, but I would be just as well off with a number of different shields.

    Sanctus doesn't heal 2 HP per second, it heals 2 HP every 2 seconds. Yeah, even WAY more useless than you thought haha

    Sanctus, only useful when your health is practically non-existent.

    Just found out that Lautrec isn't the one that kills Anastacia.

    I just started a playthrough today and as soon as I collected the first three firekeeper souls I go up to upgrade my estus a third time and she's dead. Keep in mind I never let Lautrec out of his cell and none of the bells were rung. So my next guess is that Petrus is a serial killer that focuses on women. :|

    Well, Lautrec can let himself out. However, as for that bit about not ringing the bells puzzles me as I have never kept him in the cell.

    Although I don't dislike Lautrec and I think Petrus is a complete degenerate. So I'm willing to accept that Petrus kills Anastacia even if it's probably confirmed that Lautrec kills her. :bas:

    Lautrec releases himself (or Oswald releases him) after you ring the first bell if you don't release him. Ans Sloth is right about the killing.

    The only time I use the Sanctus shield is when I'm farming baby skeletons. Along with the Evil Eye Ring, you don't have to worry about your health; just keep farming for humanity.

    Did you think it was a coincidence that you win the shield just before reaching the area?

    Shooting Kalameet in the eye will stagger him and deal massive (relatively speaking) bonus damage. I dealt at least 100 more damage with a headshot than when shooting him regularly.

    Yes, you just need to be in dragon body when you get infected. And as soon as you die, you lose dragon body and cannot activate it again.

    Dragon body + egghead = Dark souls hardcore mode.

    Yeah took me forever to find out too. It doesn't act as spiky though, it increases your poise and makes your body act as if you're an armored tusk silly (weapons deflect off you)
