    New FC area? Empty New FC area?

    Post by aceluby Wed Apr 25, 2012 11:30 am

    I was playing last night and realized there is a REALLY good spot to duel right before the firesage. It's the area by the last Capra Demon that contains a knight soul.

    Area is a good size, has some dangerous ledges, is relatively flat, and doesn't have easy escape routes like Kiln. Plus, given that firesage can be an optional boss, anybody can keep the area open for hosting.

    Thoughts?

    what about the area right before the fog door? also theres a lot of traffic in that area but invasions shouldnt be a problem. i could leave firesage on my faith build but that'd mean i cant host in btown, im gonna go check the ares again first.

    I thought about that area as well, but the area by the Capra demon is a bit bigger.

    And you're right about hosting, you need to beat Quelaag to get to it, so hosts of Btown would need to use a different character unfortunately.

    Im thinking about this, now if your a phantom and get sent back to the bone fire, Will all the enemies re-spawn? you'll have about 6 stone demons 1 Taurus demon and the capra demon to deal with everytime before dropping your rss. Now if they don't respawn then it would be a good size place. The one good thing about Btown is the bonfire is just a jog away from the arena.lol

    Idd
    Bonfire is belangrijk zodat je niet veel tijd verspeelt als je respawnd

    Edit: sorry forget that i need to speak english
    I was saying that the bonfire is important so you dont waste much time to get there everytime we respawn

    what about the area before the shortcut with all the sunlight maggots? that could be fun tooo and you can just rush through all the monster there and they wont follow you. it looks pretty good to me.

    That's an ok spot too, again, it's a little closed off for what I personally am looking for. As for being summoned I wouldn't mind summoning by the bonfire as a host and clearing out those guys, but it's a trek. Didn't really think of that and it's a pretty good point. Oh well.

    I do like the area before firesage near the carpa demon, and dont think it would be too hard to kill everything solo, tho i guess some people migyt be on ng++ so might be a pain. But yeah the fear of falling to death would add something to the fights.

    Rant - last time I checked, the sunlight maggot area was a hotspot for people doing 0 poise PvP. Mil - IIRC, that area is know for poise stabbers and was busy awhile back.

    Yeah, the Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith are absolutely ripe with places we can PvP in. The hardest part, really, is just picking one!

    - Large Flame Ember area
    - Last Capra area
    - DoC shortcut area
    - In Lost Izalith, that flat area with a bunch of Fire-Jabbas just before where the floor breaks and you fall into the sewers
    - Etc.

    Lots of places to pick from there. Deciding factors could be: quickness of access from a bonfire (Lost Izalith is kind of annoying, to be honest), how many mobs you need to clear from the arena, and how hidden and easy the area is to defend from unwanted invaders.

    By the way, the fire-jabbas and the taurus on the way from the Demon Ruins bonfire to the Firesage door are really easy to run by. No need to kill them every time you want to go place your RSS.

    Yeah, we need to stay out of high traffic PvP areas, unless we can hide out summon sign easily and close. Otherwise, we risk being summoned by someone else.

    You can PvP in Sif's area, just got to stay away from the sword. It is really large, so boundaries may need to be set. It is a fairly quick run from the bonfire to the boss area.

    I kinda like the idae of the sif arena, it's like the butterfly garden area. I didn't know you could drop your rss there. Your right as long as you don't hit the sword you should have no problems. I think once your in there the forest hunters cant invade either.

    It's possible, and I'm pretty sure Forest hunters can't invade, like ted said. Another nice thing about it is it's easy to get to, and can be done anytime (the same toon can host in multiple areas).
