So to update the thread, I realized I had never done Irithyll Dungeon but I had gotten the bonfire at some point. I went there, cleared it out completely and made my way to the Profaned Capital. I killed Yorm, easily when I realized what that sword did. After that I made my way backwards but sadly I must have missed on of Siegfried's quest points because I realized after beating Yorm that he should have shown up there for the fight to help me :( I did find him and free him, getting the item he gives, before the boss fight so that bummed me out a bit. I also unlocked the other NPC in the dungeon.
After that I made my way back up top and beat Aldrich after two tries thanks to the leveling I had managed in my previous trolling. THEN I got kicked to Dancer of the Boreal valley after not knowing wtf was happening. Had I known I was about to start the boss fight I would have leveled and consumed souls but I got him on my 4th attempt and managed to not lose any souls in the process. Took me a minute to realize how to get to the boss after dying the first time but I got there relatively fast.
Sinusoidal I actually was going to cave and summon for Aldrich as soon as I came back after doing the above and as soon as I was 1/2 up the steps in Anor Londo I got invaded by someone lagging badly who also was super high leveled with lightning gear. I won't do that anymore lol.
@charltonheston That's what I ended up doing, just lazer focusing on him and rolling around the area. The sword I got from the Yorm fight definitely helped out.
@noobsmog I can't remember the sword I've been using but I've been trying to level it as fast as I can and it was a magical longsword. I am now using the sword from Yorm.
@seauton I hated that area going through the first time (and when I unlocked a shortcut back to it later on. There are some tough enemies there when you arrive for the first time. If I am not mistaken there are like 2 different areas you can go to from there but any boggy area in a Souls game is typically awful lol.
@qrowdyy I really am not a fan of people telling other people how to play games (and I'm not saying that as hateful as the text may read). Every time there is a souls related post there is someone deriding someone's choice of class, magic use, co-op use/not use, etc. The game is the game and if they didn't want it to be part of the Souls game it wouldn't be there in every single one. If the mp is tacked on that's the developer's fault (and it makes From Software look like chumps if its that bad and this is the 4th one they are doing).
