AWKWARD ZOMBIE

I already know that or I wouldn't have said "generally" and "because you can't buy invasion items in NG."

you still can get invaded a fair bit depending on your region and how much shit luck you have. time of day also affects it alot

did you know "that"?

Yes I did. And if you didn't want that kind of response you should have read my post, since I explicitly say I know why there are few invasions in NG, meaning I don't need someone to state the obvious.

Haven't gotten invaded yet either and on top of that I joined the smurf covenant but haven't been able to find any sinners yet.

actually, you can buy cracked red eye orbs from the little hooded faceless dwarf where you join the Brotherhood of Blood for 10k souls each.

you can also get them by winning a duel against others in the same place, which is much easier imo.

i've been doing that with my character for the past few days, haven't gone into NG+ because I really don't want to give up infinite titanite chunks and dragon aerie farming with bonfire ascetics lol

and if you didnt want someone to state the obvious you shouldnt have written something that was so obvious in your post it had to be stated

apologies for trying to be helpful my bad

w0w such argue much bicker

the npcs you can farm cracked eye orbs from are those tiny little pigshits in majula

Haven't gotten anything from those annoying things. Got a ton off the sentinels before Undead Purgatory before they all vanished because Executioner Chariot was hell as a mage.

Executioner Chariot is pretty hard all together, I found him the hardest so far as a melee character. Joined the Bloods cause the Crips were dead as fuck.

something i saw mentioned on 4chan and i tried it just now

if you end up fighting the executioner's chariot again, try bringing the boss down to 30~40% health without pulling the gate down, with ranged of any sort. something interesting happens.

Iron Keep done. The archers annoyed me very slightly for a short while until I figured out that once they set their target they can't readjust. Also that I could block the arrows with minimal stamina loss as a mage.

Picking up Hexes now more than Sorcery, since Great Resonant Soul and Dark Orb are doing more damage than my Sorceries and have more casting uses, even if GRS takes up 2 slots. I've got spares plenty with the ring from Scorpioness NG+ though, with more as I level up ATTN.

Right now Brightstone Cove, the lower part, is giving me issues because homing magic and I hates it.

You're in NG+ already? Or does bonfire ascetic do the same?

Same thing. Got her ring and ring from Skeleton Lords.
