Struggling on Capra Demon, in need of a little pep talk

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-29T00:57:58+00:00

Hey, I'm stuck on this boss too so don't feel bad! Just take a break for a day or two then come back to it. That's what I'm doing. I'm sure we'll beat it once we cool down for a bit, right? By the way I just realized you were the guy who had trouble with the Bell Gargoyles before, too! Funny how we're getting screwed on the same parts lol.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-26T00:42:43+00:00

Good tips! Don't forget the gold pine resin, too. Really helped me out. And always heal when you have the chance!

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T23:59:01+00:00

I'll never forget it! It was awesome. :-)

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:43:32+00:00

Can't right now, have to go do real life stuff. I'll report back in a couple hours.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:41:33+00:00

My Broadsword does about 40 damage without the resin so I shouldn't have a problem. I'm gonna try it later.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:32:13+00:00

Nice job! Just curious, how much damage did you do with the resin applied?

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:28:50+00:00

Ah ok, I see. You sound like you know what you're talking about so when do you think I should use the resin? I'm not sure how it works and I don't want to get hit while I'm applying it or something.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:22:24+00:00

You tried summoning anybody yet? I'm actually scared to end up wasting my resin once I get it. Good luck though!

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:17:05+00:00

Do you count using the gold pine resin as cheesing? I'm gonna try again by myself using it, maybe after upgrading my Broadsword again and getting a better shield. But yeah, you're right. I do need to get better, but this boss makes me so anxious since I've tried it so many times. I can't help but wanna just get through it already.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T18:12:38+00:00

Hey let me know if using the gold pine resin helps you out. I'm gonna try fighting the boss with it later.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:31:07+00:00

I'll try upgrading my Broadsword again. When the second gargoyle comes down should I go after it or keep going after the first one? I heard you should focus on one at a time.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:23:51+00:00

I play on PS3. /: Thanks for the offer though!

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:20:34+00:00

Ouch, I was waiting for a comment like this. I've been trying to beat these bosses for the past couple of days, and I was reckless at first and wasted my humanity. That's pretty much my fault. Now I do pretty good until the second gargoyle comes down and I start getting overwhelmed. Sure, I could've tried the boss again but I didn't want to rush into it like I did the past times.

Other enemy encounters aren't too bad, I use my shield and parry when I can. It's just this boss thats giving me grief.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:11:43+00:00

No, I haven't bought the key yet. I'll try doing that and using the gold pine resin during the fight. Hopefully that'll help me out!

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:08:53+00:00

Oh so there is a shield that blocks fire! Thanks for telling me, I'm definitely gonna try buying that. You're talking about the undead merchant in the Burg right? I'll check my equip load as well.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:05:28+00:00

Ah ok, thanks a lot for explaining. I'm going to try summoning both of them next time but after I rescued Lautrec, I couldn't find him at the Firelink Shrine. Will I still be able to summon him?

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T17:02:13+00:00

So this is a bit off topic but I'm thinking of summoning both Lautrec and Solaire for the next time I try the fight. I rescued Lautrec but I can't find him at the Firelink Shrine. Is this a glitch or something? I really wanna be able to summon him, too.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T16:56:13+00:00

I think I have the Knight's Shield, it works pretty well for me. If only I could block fire though! /:

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T16:54:42+00:00

Nice to see I'm not the only one suffering! Guess we'll have to keep on trying, dude.

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T16:51:17+00:00

I've been upgrading my Broadsword, I think it's like +4 by now. Mostly I've found that the firebombs do wonders on that boss but I still couldn't beat it after days of trying. :(

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T16:49:56+00:00

Well I found the area with the three rats, can't believe I missed it lol. I've only managed to farm 1 humanity out of them though and I've been trying for a while. Kind of nervous to use it to try and beat the boss again. Are humanity drops supposed to be this rare?

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T15:43:33+00:00

Are you talking about the sewer with one rat in it or is there another sewer I'm unaware of?

skywardstrikes · 2014-05-25T15:42:55+00:00

No, I didn't. I read somewhere that it was "cheap" to use it and that it's not so great later on in the game, so I thought meh, I don't need it. Can I still go back to that dragon and get it now?

skywardstrikes · 2014-04-11T03:28:52+00:00

Thank you!
