I'll try. I just want my equip load to be enough so I can wear the Elite armor set. :p
Wearing one complete set is stupid, it has diminishing returns in most cases. Wear the chest plate of the Knight Armor set, it's genuinely good (the Elite Knight chest plate is a bit heavier but has slightly better defense), wear the Hollow Soldier Waistcloth (its defense is kind of shit but its the lightest gear you can wear that has poise), then wear some gauntlets and a helmet. Equip a weapon and a light shield, your equip weight should be below 25% now.

Check this out: Dark Souls Modded: SUPER-AGGRESSIVE ENEMIES - YouTube

I need to end this, build a PC and play Dark Souls with this mod. Looks so f*cking awesome. And now I'm wishing that Demon's Souls was on PC too. @TrueCoolGuy
Yeah, already saw this. But I heard getting this mod to work on Dark Souls is really hard, it only works on the unpatched version of the game and even after that you need to do some work around.

The enemies in Dark Souls II act almost as aggressively as in this mod. So we have that to look forward to. :p

DS 2's AI is not only more aggressive it doesn't have invincibility when performing parry/riposte & backstabs..makes combat much more thrilling!

Finally defeated Ornstein and Smough. After much needed preparation, I took them down in 4 tries. I got the Lordvessel too. And LOL at that giant lady. Will be continuing my journey later.

Man i still dont understand how in gods name did it take so long for you to defeat probably the 2nd and 3rd easiest bosses in the game (in your first playthrough of course)

O&S are very difficult, especially for someone who likes heavy armor -.- It is best to fight them completely naked, so that you can dodge their attacks easily.

[MENTION=22908]shinigami8671[/MENTION] Previously I had tried to defeat then like only four times and I wasn't prepared for it then. Now I was bouncing around like a ninja and stabbing the shit out of them. I also hadn't played in a month at least. So I was a little rusty.

I didn't know where to go after obtaining the Lordvessel so I checked online and it said to go talk to Frampt and I did that. I'm at the Duke's Archives now and loving this place.

Yup,fire weapons also do good damage and firebombs do epic damage when they merge. Always try to kill ornstien first if you do another playthrough. He is hard as hell when "Fused" with smough. Smough on the other hand,is slow as hell and his big slow attacks just gain electric damage after he absorbs ornstien. Again,firebombs are a great way to end the battle quickly.

Yeah I used the firebombs like you told me before. After defeating them both, I read online that if you defeat Ornstein last you can get his armor. :( Goddamn it! I wish I had done that. I want his armor.

Just beat those two last night.

Killing Smough first to get Ornsteins armor was somewhat difficult, but after he transformed the fight was easy as shit, just stick in between his legs and he can't do shit.

It's like all the big bosses have this weakness, just stick in between their legs and wail on them and they can't counter it. =/

Yea its whoever u defeat last,you get his armor. Since you defeated smough last,you can buy his armor from the vendor under the bridge if u have met him already. I bought my Knight Artorias's armor from him.

It was like this in Demon's Souls too. You can cheese your way through pretty much every boss. I hope FromSoft fixes this in DkS2.

Actually, it was a lot better in Demon's Souls. For one thing, there weren't that many giant bipedal enemies and when there were, like the 1-2 boss, they had some ways to get you away from their feet. The 1-2 boss would jump back and forth which would damage you, he'd stomp around or bash his shield for a big AoE attack.

Cheesing bosses by sticking close to them is only a problem in Dark Souls. Demon's Souls didn't have a problem with that and I'm sure From Soft will work out a way to fix it in DkSII. Just like they fixed the backstab fishing problem for regular enemies.
