Love the bosses, hate the area.

"As soon as you reach an ash covered area after the stairs, an Ashen Idol will emerge. It will blow up and cause several fire pillars to erupt around it. So once you see it surface, retreat to a safe distance and let it throw its flame tantrum before approaching it and using a Smelter Wedge to destroy it"
Do not destroy this 1st Ashen Idol until after you have killed the Fume Knight, otherwise you will run out of Smelter Wedges.

Strength Ring missing from 'equipment' section

Is that fightin cowboy im the pictures??

This DLC is so boring, the entire area lots of enemies will outnumber you and if you try to find a better position to fight them even more of them will spawn and attack you. Dude this is not enjoyable, a hard game is okay but the whole game it's been the same... enemies outnumbering and stunlocking you to death. At least I bought the game with a good discount... I'm having a terrible experience playing the game, and now DLCs are making me feel bored. Gosh, why do they count towards the platinum trophy....

Just like every other dlc area more ds2 bs oh well good thing they NEVER made another souls game without Miyazaki. Lol

For anyone looking for the Majestic Greatsword, there is no "metal door" past the Foyer bonfire; it's an archway. I spent 10 minutes looking for a "metal door" only to realise that the guide was referring to an archway with no door at all.

One of the best areas in terms of layout and level design. Difficulty-wise, I'm getting my *** handed to me.
