Blight town yes or no.

It's all about The Great Hollow and Ash Lake.

I love Btown, its so convoluted in design and dangerous to explore, not to mention it has enemies that wield corpses as weapons! It really is one of the greatest levels in gaming, period.



I love saying period and putting a period, makes me laugh.

I also love B Town now. Mainly because of my first time through. No area in the game punished stupidity and impatience anywhere near as hard for me as this area. I still panic a little walking on the shaky bridges. Not sure what problems people have with the water (flame dog) wheel. I've always just stood near the edges of the platform (moving or otherwise) I'm on and take one step off to get to the next. I've been killed a few times because of mosquito targeting and moving in less than ideal ways, but never to the dogwheel. Also I take pleasure in the murder of the blowgun assassins. Dudes pissed me off so much the first run :evil:

I like how many blowgunners suicide. Its funny to get 2 or 3 lost of purple cklumps just walking through tthe place.

what i hate about blighttown is that branch that leads to the crimson set
i died more than 10 times there, crossing it to get the souls and dying crossing back
made it sucefully rolling, now everytime i get therei just use the homeward bone

lol i think that happens to everyone, that tree branch is so *** glitchy.

what? its a lot better than anor londo at least, anor is one of the most booring, plain looking things ive ever seen.

I think anor londo is one of the most beautiful places in the game but it is very boring because you have to walk so far to get anywhere. The worst part is that huge courtyard by the firekeeper. Don't get me started on if she attacks then you kill her so you cant use her bonfire, then its even more walking. = \ oh and did I mention if the stairs are turned the wrong way, you can't even use the gargoyle bridge, you have to go all the way around through the rafters to fix the stairs to get back to the ornstein area.

Blighttown was one of the hardest areas when I first started, I loved the challenge, and the wheel, the poison, it was so evil that it really made you feel like you were earning your progress. Is it worth exploring, well there is the Iaito, and the Great Club, and a Firekeeper soul.

I've never died on the waterwheel, always just walked off onto it when it was a tiny bit below me.

I go into blight town for specific equipment:

Iato
Eagle Shield
Power Within
Whip

If you don't want any of those items, might as well just skip blight town. Although all of those are very good items, except for the whip, due to the notched whip.

I go to blight town for the armor sets (I have every set in the game but one now) so unless you want them I'd skip it. btw has anyone else got stuck on top of the wheel the flame dog is in (not the one with the platforms)?

I mainly go to Btown for PW and Quelana. It has been so long since I've gone to upper Btown. I hope to never go there again.

No, valley of defilement all the way

this is the greatest thing about this game. i never once died on that limb. and the waterwheel is easy to me.

every player has different frustrations.


let us not talk about those archers knights in anor londo

I never had much trouble with the waterwheel. Every time I've died on it was an obvious mistake on my part, though I HAVE died a few times on that glitchy-*** branch!

I actually liked lower btown, the swamp. But I really hated the upper part, one of the most hardest areas for me yet!

Those archers are piss easy. Learn to parry the right one and voila. I had never any issues with them after that.

Only time that battle is hard is when one of them get's arrowitis and never pulls out his weapon.

I sometimes just shoot them off the ledges with my dragon slayer great bow, not really effective, but so satisfying.

but i died so many times just climbing down, and didn't find any note worthy loot.

PW, eagle shield, laito, shadow set, server, pyro set, whip and wanderer set, did i miss anything?

A HUMANITY!!!!!!

Firekeeper soul!!!! =D

The sealer's set and power within.

The Remedy Magic Spell is also found in this area. It's right next to the Sealer's set.

meh homing soul mass works great on the archers.

but thanks for pointing out how much better than me you are.

I love B-town. It's one of my favorite areas in the game now.

I don't bother trying to cross that stupid branch anymore. I just climb the ladder and jump down to the area with the firekeeper soul.

Well I like Lost Izalith. I feel right at home on account of me being a dragon.
