Does the bonfire in darkmoon tomb not work?

[Mathryu]

Every time gwyndolin kills me I spawn back at the first anor londo bonfire, which is inactive. I can't get back to darkmoon directly so I have to go to send fortress and warp back... This is just silly

[-RAISTLIN-]

i think this is deliberate due to killing the firekeeper?

[TySton]

no once you start the fight the firekeeper turns hostile to you. the bonfire where you see Sub Bro and after Snorlacks and Pikachu fight should still be lit tho.

[dtito2]

possibly you just activated it but you didn't use it, so they send you to the last one you used (activating it is not using it).

Warp (to which you send yourself is not worth as last used, last used is where you used the ward options).

you must touch it after doing ward that way it will be the last one used.

You always get sent back to the Anor Londo bonfire i think. Best way to do it imo is to go to any other bonfire, warp to darkmoon tomb, then if you die, just use a homeward bone to get back to whatever other bonfire you sat at. Then you can port back to darkmoon tomb again. It's kinda dumb, but it's better than running to another bonfire, or rotating the bridge again.
