Been doing some Jolly Co-operation and people are so kind to me after I help them! "Thanks a lot! I've been stuck on that guy for a while!" "Thank you so much! All of these kind hosts just thanking me for helping out. They're all so kind. Thank you for the extra souls and humanity!

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
I always love co-oping with someone who has been stuck.
And showing them secrets and stuff.

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
I always ask if they want me to just be a wingman, or to show them stuff. 3 out of 4 usually wants to see all the secrets. I belong to the 1/4. I want to find it all myself (if possible).

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
I shall fight you sir >
But yeah, I found quite a few secrets through my own exploration. Some of it I have to thank to my co-op partner.

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
Coop is the best, and there are tons of new players out there. Out of every 10 coop runs, at least 4 are new players. I think it's a combination of DkS price drops, and anticipation of the eventual DLCs. The thank you msgs (sometimes written almost in tears if you help them finally beat a boss they were stuck on for hours or days) are great and many folks now drop you some humanity or something as thanks. I really love the fact that such a harsh, punishing game has this disguised core of friendly jolly cooperation.

Glad I recently started a new character so I can help more people at the Gargs or Capra.

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
Well, I had this one time in Anor Londo I was summoned to help with O & S in NG + 3 by the count of souls given. We cleared the area, dispatched a Blue Phantom and without summoning Soliare or anybody else we fought O & S.
This guy was obviously experienced and we beat the boss with such grace and style.
He sent me a message "Very nice work!!!"
That is one of the best messages I have ever received and it was from an experienced player.

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
This reminds me of finally defeating O&S with a phantom and Solaire. I was definetly on cloud 9 and cheesing like a mug. I mustve sent the phantom 4 or 5 msg. before he finally said your welcome stop sending me messages.

Yes, I agree completely. It's a blessing to have such thankful people in our harsh world.
Jolly Co-operation is a win-win for everybody. In my case, I get the pleasure of playing the game, helping kill the bosses (always fun to me), getting additional souls and humanity after the kill and ultimately making a fellow players life easier.
I've been doing much co-op so I could farm some souls in order to increase my new character's level. It's been very rewarding and worthwhile overall so far!
Praise the sun!

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
I get thanked fairly often, it is a fun part of coop. What seems to help is not just knowing the area and whacking some invaders, but remembering the "jolly" part of jolly coop. Coop puts me in a good mood naturally and I purposefully listen to upbeat music as well, so I'm doing a lot of jumping for joy and cheerleading/tour guiding, not just powering through the level. People seem to dig it. Also, if you really want the love I get noticeably more PMs (and summon frequency) on my Solaire build. Even invaders love it and sometimes praise the sun and then BC back out. Plus few people realize how extremely good his gear is (particularly with 99 humanity and if you swap in giants gauntlets).

Re: All of These Kind Hosts!!!!
Yeah, I gotcha!
For me, its a lovely break from the stress and intensity of PvP. I find somebody that's looking for a bit of help with something in the game and go take care of business. If they have never played, I lead them to some cool items hidden through the level. Drop them an item or two that I don't need that they would appreciate. Either way, we end up having a good time.
The community always seems to give back then as well. I get to a point where I need a bit of back up on a new playthrough and find some people to co-op with when suddenly one of the phantoms I brought into my world drops me like an awesome weapon or a big pile of humanity.
