Really crusing along now. Spending some time and farming for gear really made the difference so I wouldn't get 3 shot by trash mobs. I stuck around the first Yokai you encounter near the like the 3rd alter and kept fighting all the fallen dead there as they refreshed pretty quick. Ending up getting a bunch of yellow and purple gear and got my level to like 12 or so. Ended up getting a bad ass axe called the Arm Crusher or something like that. Maxed to like level 9 or 10 and the thing has like 250 damage, still pretty early but it's leaps and bounds higher in damage than anything I've seen so far. Also found a spear that has wind damage added and it wrecks enemies stamina gages.
Made it to the first boss on the ship and he fucked me up for the first 10 or so tries. My Dark Souls strategy worked pretty well, but it's not quite the same so while it worked okay, still got jacked up a bunch. Finally beat him and had to call it quits. He dropped a ton of stuff, but since I spent so much time farming, nothing he dropped even came close to what I was already equiped with. My breast plate had like 50 armor and the one he dropped only had like 35.
Next step in the morning is to hit up an area I passed up, then find a good spot in the next level to grind out some exp/gear.
Good stuff. The first alpha I did heavy farming and it helped a lot. You are moving along fast. The 2nd half of the demo is longer and harder but at this pace you might be able to finish it even thou you won't have as much free gaming time as you like.
This is the farming guide I used last time if anyone wants to use it.
