Question for those further along in the game:

After you receive the King's Ring, you can open the three kings doors in the Giant's Forest, the Shaded Woods and Drangleic Castle. I went through the door in Drangleic castle and down the long winding path to the fog gate. I walked through and fought the boss "Throne Defender and Throne Watcher" - took me three attempts to get them down solo and was a lot of fun. Afterward, I decided to stick around and drop my white soapstone a few times to help others on the fight for sunlight medals because I'd enjoyed it so much. I got summoned three or four times and each time I did, the boss the player had behind the gate was NOT the one that I killed. It was some large chick with a huge scythe who proceeded to rape our group each and every time - I didn't catch the name. Are there multiple bosses you can encounter at this location? Have I lost the chance to encounter this chick until my next playthrough?

It's found in the room with the falling platforms. In the center is a ladder. Go up that ladder and it will lead to it.

Some guy invaded my game while I was on my way there. Got kinda scary but I vanquished my foe and banished him.

I tried using the BK Greataxe and I hated it. Still using my Drangelic Sword +1

I need to find a large club so I can bop some fools with that A strength scaling~

There any places to farm some titanite for upgrades? or a vendor that sells more than 10 other than the dude in the beginning?

Yeah, this. I need to farm some titanite but no idea where to go for it. I certainly need way more than 10 to upgrade my shit.

What worked really well for me was the Black Gulch area just before The Rotten. You clear the entire thing one time, destroying all of the statues to avoid being poisoned all the time. Then when you use the bonfire to reset your spawns, the statues stay gone and you can clear it with ease. The eyeball things that pop out of the pools drop large titanite shards and titanite chunks at pretty solid rates. I got a Titanite slab from one of the worms that pop out of the wall as well.

Hammer dudes in the poison area drop basic ones a ton. Especially with Covetous Gold Ring +1 if you farm them after Mytha.

Beyond basics see above. Drop rate is steady there but not insane like the hammer dudes though

If you farm Black Gulch keep in mind you can fireball/arrow/bomb the pools with the creatures in them to set them on fire.

The blacksmith's daughter in town will sell you unlimited titanite after you open the shrine of winter, I think, and unlimited upgraded versions as you progress further.

Also questions of my own. Anyone found a purpose to mundane enchantment and anyone found a permanent light like the helm in DS2? Carrying a torch fulltime sucks but is so helpful so many areas...

Bow with fire enchantment can do it with wooden arrows even. Arrows being ideal since aiming at the pools too close makes them flee the pool, whereas bow they'll just sit there dying.

Stone trader goes unlimited you mean, town Smith never does. She does after Iron Keep is clear.

Weird so possibly the ultimate enchantment for a 50/50/50/50/etc style build? That's weird...

I was a bit annoyed when I found the third Heide Knight yesterday and discovered that the +0 lance is almost as good as my +10 sword :[

Guess I can dual wield em. Lightning stun lock for days, probably.

Smelter Demon is currently making me his bitch. I dodge his attacks easy, but his fire AE just wrecks me since none of my armor really has that much fire resist.

I've killed most bosses solo, but even grouped I have yet to take this guy down. Have I missed a trick or something for this dude?
