I came up with an idea I want to try. Get str50 dex50 int50 faith50 and max out every weapon in game. Them test a riposte and a light swing with each to finally be able to say which are the top damage possible
"Well this one slightly wins if your faith is levelled too since it scales a bit with it" or
"By far this one wins if you have dex50 too but if you just have str50 this one wins instead" etc lol
Great Sword of Artorias (non-cursed, C/C/B/B scaling) will win for single and two handed R1 attacks as far as speed:damage:stamina consumption efficiency goes. Not sure on ripostes. Chaos Rapier might still win.
I ventured into Blighttown once, and I'm not sure if I want to do it. Was thinking of revisiting the asylum first haha. It just looks wayyy too dangerous for me and I haven't even made it to the first bonfire. Haven't tried though with my Black Knights Sword +2 lol
I need better armor, using balder body armor and black leather legs/gloves and the beginning helm for warrior. Any ideas of what I can upgrade to?
Elite Knights will be kinda bad for blight town since it has low poison resistance, the black leather is actually a pretty good choice since it has a higher resistance there and should keep you in the lowest weight class (less than 25% burden). The Pyromancer's starting set is good for down there as well but you don't find that till after the boss...
Spider shield which you find in the depths is also helpful and some glowing purple moss (can buy off the undead female merchant) is good to take for if you get poisoned.
Yeah blooming was what I meant by glowing sorry, couldn't remember the name just that the picture glows XD I don't think I've ever bothered with the regular purple moss that just reduces the build up.

Blighttown needs to burn with all of its flying bugs, fire bugs, poison/toxic swamps, and giant creatures :| I am lost in there and I don't want to go back to the swamp :(
Getting down is not very fun however going up will take <1min lol if you are having problems with toxix throw dung pies but get caught in it's toxic effect (you lose 1hp tic instead of 6) ;)

Since I'm using the Spider Shield I don't get poisoned/toxic thaat much, but the swamp and huge boulder guys is just making me want to leave xD
The guys with the big rocks turn slowly so you can back stab them easy if that helps any.
Did you ever finish Blighttown? I'm on the boss and idk what to really expect and it says I need fire resist stuff :/ only thing I have that is fire resist is my spider shield.

if you go human near the bonfire a npc will "invade" you.. once you beat her you can summon her for the boss fight where she can tank like a mofo. The boss is easy, just gotta be prepared to dodge.
For the boss you can just keep your shield up and rotate around her at close range till she vomits then get in a few easy hits. If she starts swinging her sword that's a good time to back up some and slip in a flask during a horizontal swing. She has an AoE around herself that is kinda dangerous but honestly she takes action so slowly that it's easy to get a heal in. Just make sure to move her around a bunch so she isn't getting you surrounded by lava.
The NPC Narshee mentioned is a huge help as well though if you rely on her you need to be kinda aggressive on the boss since she doesn't stay alive overly long. I'm at the Anor Londo boss so if I can get that done and we are in level range I can come help if needed.

I'm level 33 :/ but if you are in range I will wait for you if you would like to help >_> I'm not really good at dodging things :(
for the spider lady she gave me alot of issues..I died so many times. I believe I actually attacked her while she was swinging at me because her swings kept wooshing over my head if I was standing really close to her and I switched to my polearm.
The only truly risky part is: Keep your eyes on her body at all times. if quelaag looks like she fainted, run as fast as you can. it's her most damaging move where a sphere of fire dmg blasts out of her for massive damage (if all her normal moves do 300 do you while naked and that move would do 600)
but for her normal weapon swings you can get closer and they miss or back up a bit and they miss. extremely small hit box. Trick is to always keep moving, she'll punish you if you wail on her. You don't need anything for the fight really just quick thinking. Even naked. you got this
Should have seen me on my first run on the Gaping Dragon :| almost killed it then both the NPCs die, then last hit(before I could :S) he kicked me and I died :( controller nearly went through the TV.

Idk how long I'll be so don't wait on me if you can get it done. The npc makes her really easy.
