    You could also show people about the cristal lizards in either the Catacombs or Great Hallow. There are two in the Catacombs and ten in the Great Hallow. Both can easily be done well before Anor Lando or even ringing either of the bells.

    Great work on this video. I for one didn't need it but i still really like seeing videos like this made to help newcomers or even veterans looking to min-max or challenge-run. These videos are absurdly useful for a game that tells so little and I am glad the reception to this video seems to be mostly positive.

    I'd recommend using the Master Key to gain access to Blightown through the backdoor and go to the Great Hollow instead of going to Anor Londo for the remaining Twinkling Tits. Lots of Crystal Lizards there. You'll have yourself a +5 BKH or BKS with minimal effort before even touching any bosses 😁

    You can also farm the crabs after you beat seath the scaleless for twinkling titanite and you get curse breakers things ( I forgot the name of them)

      Dude get a life and let people enjoy things. She's clearly having a blast doing those and I personally enjoy her vids a lot more than so many other monotone nerds overexplaining DS content. Its one of the better channels out there with a refreshingly joyful and enthusiastic tone about well...'how to souls' . Don't like it? Create your own channel about new games if you feel so strongly about that. Better yet, keep skip it entirely and go back to the stuff you like better instead of being a hater. Also love the 'what we all said 12 Years ago' when your account says you've been active only since Aug 2022. Were you even born 12 years ago? :)
