How to prevent the murder of Fire Keeper in Firelink Shrine?

[Little Mons†er]

title says all

[Apathy]

You have to kill Lautric before he kills her if you want to prevent it. But you can just let him kill her, get the Black Eye Orb, and invade him in Anor Londo. You get her Firekeeper's Soul and you can either give it back or use it to enhance your Estus.

He's initially locked in a cell hidden in the Tower where you fight the Gargoyles and ring the first bell. From where the Channeler was take a left and you'll see a Balder Knight. He's near that area. Don't kill him there. Let him out and exhaust his dialouge so he moves to Firelink. From where he's sitting at Firelink you can kick him two or three times and it'll launch him off the ledge to his death. Save and quit then go back into the game and his drops will be there.

He escapes on his own after you've rang a Bell though so he should be at Firelink by the Firekeeper.

So i should ring the bell after gargoiles and he moves to firelink right? And another question is how to get lantern for catacombs, in last run i went through it completely blind

There's a key you can find to Lautrec's cell in Undeadburg. It's off to the side but hard to miss. I think the Master Key might also open it but I'm not sure. Opening it and talking to him lets you summon him for a few fights. But yeah ringing a bell automatically puts him at Firelink next to the Firekeeper.

Skull Lanterns sometimes* drop from the Necromancers (the wizards who rez the skeletons) in the Catacombs, but if you make it to Tomb of the Giants and talk to Patches you will find one on a corpse.

*If you kill all of the Necromancers the last one has a 100% guarenteed drop for the Skull Lantern.

There's also the Cast Light Sorcery and the Sunlight Maggot for light.

i cant find him
*got him, nevermind

[Knight Solair]

easy way is to kill lautric when he gets to firelink shrine after the gargoyles fight, walk up to him and kick him off the cliff, exit and reload and his ring of favor and protection will be there. You can fight him as well but he is a parry monster that will be difficult for someone who is impatient to beat.

*Facepalm*.

EXPLORE! Stop running before you can walk.

There are TWO, I say TWO chances to get the Lantern. Let alone two other ways to light the place thats been stated above by others.

One of the Necromancers will drop one eventually so if you kill all of them you get a Lantern, just check the bodies.

There is one found as a loot in the Tomb of the Giants itself.... Hint:- Dont attack the dodgy bloke telling you about the "Treasure down that hole" and take a look instead.

Im up to blighttown, when should i go to catacombs

Locate Lautrec and kill him. This is most easily accomplished by rescuing him from the undead parish then punting him off the cliff at firelink after he moves there. (He'll be sitting directly across from the fire keeper.)

Whenever you want.

A divine weapon makes it a little easier so if you want that do the moonlight butterfly first for the divine ember (give to Andre) unless you can use the Astora Straight sword but its not absolutely needed if you get to the necromancers fast.

Of course some will tell you that you can ignore most of the catacombs to get to pinwheel using speedrunning techniques but would you fast forward a film your watching the first time.

Oh and killing Lautrec early means you miss out on two armour sets later, one a light armour set a good one and the other a heavy armour set, not so good but its lautrecs armour and has fashion soul uses.
