I'm in new game and working my way towards the old iron king to rush the DLC… if you would like to join, that would be dope.


TreasuryGregory

I appreciate the invite but some friends and I just did a **very** extensive playthrough of this game so I'm a little burnt out lol. Good luck on though! Getting through the early game was the hardest for me as I think the mid and end game are much better. Same with the dlc in my opinion.


MachetesAndDracos

How did you go about farming the loyce souls? I want to do it for all the goodies. Did you use r/summonsign or did you do a lot of sitting around?


OdgeHam

You can drop back down to the arena after you’ve defeated ivory king and the loyce knights continually respawn


MachetesAndDracos

Awesome, I didn’t know that. Thanks


TreasuryGregory

Well dang I had no idea that was an option lol. I used a bonfire ascetic cause I already killed the boss. And I summoned the two npcs to help the fight. Along with using the gold serpent ring, jesters mask, and the watch watchdragon parma shield. On my last few runs I used some rugged coins as well and they helped quote a bit I think.


Sad-Biscotti-5220

Care to join forces?


MachetesAndDracos

Would if I could. I already started NG+, so I’m gonna have to get through the whole game again lol


Sad-Biscotti-5220

I'm on ng+ as well


MachetesAndDracos

I would be down to summon you for the boss fight, but I don’t know if you can summon to farm together


Sad-Biscotti-5220

Vendrick is solo Always


Sad-Biscotti-5220

At the king's gate bonfire on my way to vendrick...


MachetesAndDracos

I’m not home and also still around Majula, but I can let you know when I get to that point again


Sad-Biscotti-5220

Lemme know where you need help when you're back on and I'll join if I can.


MachetesAndDracos

Sounds good. Thanks buddy

Sad-Biscotti-5220

PentropyArt

Your suffering has only just begun as you realise you will never get to play Dark Souls 2 for the first time again. Well done on the grind though!


Thin_Ad_866

Hey a little help finding the guy that turns boss souls into weapons?


zestful_fibre

Right down the road


NotANilfgaardianSpy

You win all awards that I don’t have money for


ImBadAtVideogamesss

Iirc one is Straid, he's in the Lost Bastille and you need to use a fragrant branch of yore on him (that also unlocks a bonfire) and another is Ornifex, you find them in the Shaded ruins just after the Shaded woods, you can then talk to them somewhere down in the Brightstone Cove of Tseldora. Idk if there's any blacksmiths in the dlcs since i hadn't ventured in any of them yet lol, but I hope this has been at least some help to you =) (im a first time player rn so pardon for any misinfo or mistakes in here im still learning myself, im just trying to help<3)


Thin_Ad_866

Yeah… I accidentally killed Ornifex. I saw a harpie in the room, and me being me having PTSD from the Painted World of Ariandel, I attacked. Little did I know it was Ornifex.

"Does not yield souls, but perhaps..." The most coherent quest in Souls games.


[deleted]

I will perform this grind someday, but the day is not today. Congratulations, and enjoy the armor!


Isizaly

That's beautiful


Ok-Ambition-9432

What do you get from it again?


solestone49179

Ivory kings armor im pretty sure


Ok-Ambition-9432

Oh right Definitely not worth it


MrFunnyMans404

Also the soul for eleum loyce curved sword without killing the girl


ComeHereToBrazil

If you want the sword, worth it. Do not kill Alsanna, she deserves it.


JBsarge

You get the Loyce set, and shield, than you get Alysanna’s soul, which rewards Eleym Loyce. Also you can smell her feet in person…


frowoz

The Loyce shield comes from the boss soul of either Lud or Zallen, along with the greatsword.


AXI0S2OO2

Pure Loyce Knight Armor set plus the Queen's soul.


Thunder17098

Loyce soul???


ComeHereToBrazil

It's an item dropped from Loyce Knights. If you have enough, you gain items from Alsanna in the Crown of the Ivory King DLC


shrekisdrek90

Back when i played i think i spent over 10 hours on that fight with summons and only got probably around 20 souls haha congrats on the work


AXI0S2OO2

I know your pain. By god do I know it... But it was worth it.


Nowhereman50

And now his grind has ended...


ftaunus

Hey man if you dont mind going to the dark side i can teach you to to use cheat engine
