Oh ok if others have received stuff in a short few days then thats optimistic for me.

Havent received a shipped confirmation yet (since i put order in on sunday 13th), but I wonder if they have to ship from US to Play Asia then to me if thats why it says ships in 5-15 days.

They're shipping dates are just overly cautious. You only have to worry about waiting for US copies if the game is just released. Mine is from them, US version, was in the country the next day and courier dropped it off the day after. And you WA guys seem to get your deliveries off them a bit quicker then us in the East.

Did they have in stock when you ordered? If you got the same as me with the cd and junk then it should be coming straight from play-asia. I guess i can expect mine in 4 days...as it seems to take an extra day to get to me than other perthies. For some reason Chidlow is only classified as metro when it suits people ^o)

Not sure, I assume they did it didnt say "back order" or sold out like other Special editions etc.

guess thats why it says 5-15days .. I saw the all out special edition but that was out of stock.

When did you order yours Blitz?

I just emailed them and told them to change the address to my Grandparents since - if it does arrive in 3 days (not likely since I ordered 13th and its now the 15th) - they can sign for it as old people don't go out.

Nothing has moved since the purchase anyway... was tempted to cancel it and not bother since I would have liked to use it on the time off over Christmas.

I have to scrap a charactor to make room for a new one. If any one has a level 17+ charactor let me know and they can have my stuff. I have a bunch of ores and a ring that gives +20% souls.

If i need too im willing to delevel a little to help some one out.

For those new to the game it's really worth it just for the ores, if i could give them to another charactor i would but i cant so id rather not waste them.

Ease up yo'll. I was in a rush.

Yeah you can delevel, there is 3 ways none of which are particularly convenient.

You can play the game backwards?
Is that like putting a DVD upside down and it plays in reverse?

Anyway. I hope to get it soon, they need to whip the Asian slaves into shape over there and ship my game.
I feel like playing another RPG.

Wolfster, explain the classes, what types are there details.. tease me, excite me to the game and convince me why I spent money on a game I know little about.

No I havent watched that video, if you send me the link I will.
Thanks.

WTF is going on with Play Asia? I still have no confirmation email about changes to the address or anything.
I know its Christmas period but its not hard to reply with confirmation or update any progress.

So you ordered a day before mine Blitz. not that im going to be racing and comparing the item here like Necris does, just keep me posted if the status changes or you get a confirmation about it being shipped etc.

I'll do the same.

Ok Jam Jam.

Class influence 3 things. Stats, Soul Level, and Starting Equipment.

Stats at the beginning are quite important especially as you have to complete the first level with out leveling up. There are lots of requirements in DS. eg it takes 10 in magic to use spells so a Soldier cant use it at first, while a long sword requires 10 strength so a thief cant use it.

These are the classes and stats

Class Vit Will End Str Dex Magic Faith Luck Starting Soul Level
Knight 10 11 11 14 10 10 11 7 4
Priest 13 11 12 13 8 8 13 8 6
Thief 10 13 10 9 14 10 8 15 9
Magician 9 15 10 9 11 15 6 11 6
Temple Kn 11 8 13 14 12 6 13 7 4
Soldier 14 9 12 12 11 8 10 10 6
Wanderer 10 10 11 11 15 9 7 13 6
Barbarian 15 7 13 15 9 11 8 11 9
Royal 8 12 8 9 12 13 12 7 1
Hunter 12 10 13 11 12 8 8 12 6
(sorry i tried twice to get that table looking good but couldnt)

Soul levell is your experience level. You'll notice that if you add a classes stats then minus their soul level you will end up with 80, which means each class has 80 +soul level number of points distributed through their stats.

Your soul level increases every time you upgrade a stat how much it costs (demon souls) is dependent on your soul level, the higher your soul level he more it costs.

Therefor picking a class with a lover soul level lets you upgrade your chosen stats quicker, though if a class already have the stats you are aiming for you should pick that instead.


Starting Equipment is actually quite important good equipment is rare or quite costly, also the order of importance in DS is Skill > Gear > Stats, i would rather play a level 1 toon with a great weapon than a level 20 with a crap weapon.

Starting gear is quite good in lots of classes. My first toon was a knight which i played for 20+ hours during that time i never found and armor that was better than my starting set. My main toon a Temple knight starts with the best flame resistance armor in the game.

At the end of the day choose that kind of charactor you want to play as they will start with the skill and gear needed for that play style.
