Cool thanks. I’m playing it on PC. I actually killed Pontiff on the first go, remembered him being much harder the first time I played the game. However, those fucking lightning dog/lizard things wrecked me (the ones at the bottom of the very long ladder down).
And yes, I was embered and promptly got invaded by one guy, and then by a second guy. So I was fighting 2 guys at the same time, not even sure how 2 invasions at once is possible. I managed to kill one but the other guy got me.
I did manage to kill the lightning doggos in the end and played a bit further killing the silver knights with their dragon bows. So next up is New Londo I think?
edit: oh sheet. I just realised this is the ED thread 
I’ll move these to the DS3 thread (if there is one).
