Tips For No Man's Wharf?

[Nollij]

I'm having a bit of trouble in No Man's Wharf, mainly because of the quagsires (I think that's what they're called) Their bleeding and long range is pretty annoying the the small areas you fight them in. I saw that they get scared of fire, so could I do anything with a torch? I didn't make it to the ship yet, I died right before that from the quagsires.

You can back stab them so just get around behind them and mess them up. I would suggest going to for a back stab when they do the two hand slam or the thrust attack (they have long recovery times during this).

This, though I used lightning spear the first time through.
Keep in mind they will come into the light to beat you down if you annoy them enough.

The problem is, is that there isn't much room to go behind them and they're slightly big so you can just roll all the way behind them like the undead. Also, you can backstab them? They same thing you do to the undead (or hallowed soldiers, or undead soldiers, seriously, it's not the easy to find/remember their names. I know someone's going to called me a noob for not knowing the name so I keep putting these really long things at the end of each name.) What about fire though? Could I use a torch to scare them off them then attack?

Definitely use the Pharros contraption if they're giving you trouble. It'll help enormously. Although it turns Gavlan's house into a nightmare.

Aside from using the Pharros Contraption to turn on the light, there's not much you can do but wing it or range it.

I would also suggest you summon at least one player into your world to face the boss after the fog wall, I found that one particularly difficult.

They back off when you use a torch so you might miss a swing (depending on the weapons) and like stated above they attack if you piss them off enough. Is it the 3 up on the ledge giving you trouble? You can shoot them with a bow and lure them over to a bigger area (not down the stairs though) if you can't get around them.

co-op works so well, in both my NG and NG + I escorted so many people across No-Mans Wharf. Someone somewhere will be willing to give you hand, and as stated torches send them scurrying and the pharros is solid advice.

Pleeeeaaassseee tell me there's a bonfire right before the boss, and where is it exactly? I made it near outside the ship before I died, I think the house right on the dock.

I do usually have to go back after I fight those 3, but I fight them one at a time.

Which ones are giving you trouble?

So I have to run past all those enemies from the cave in the beginning?

Yep, No Man's Wharf is annoying like that. I tend to skip the whole area.
