so blah blah, I went down south and got a ton of runes that I lost right before I finally opened up the leveling place getting stupid rushing into a wolf fight that was easy the first time. but anyhow. doing the samurai thing still. I did push dex up, and added HP once, maybe strength, but is there a better attribute I should be doing with samurai? also I am kind of stuck grinding right now but not sure where to go next without getting my butt kicked. I'm outside the big castle after grinding on knights and weaklings.
Endurance huge for melee classes. Ups the stamina (green) bar for more swipes & blocks before fatiguing out.
Also, protip; find a 100 Block shield to hide behind. There’s a merchant somewhere around that has one for sale.

Try finding the caves and dungeons while exploring. There’s mini-bosses at the end who give rewards and they’re not too bad at all. Try going south of the entrance to the overworld and explore the Weeping Peninsula. Found some good stuff there. But as long as your runes are spent just pick a direction and go. If the enemies are rough, go somewhere else. The world is massive and being Souls it’s vague as hell about where you’re actually supposed to go.

Yeah I beat the south island cave which is where I had 4000 runes from and then died in the cave with the wolves and the two bosses. I didn't summon my first try and so lost to the two bosses hard. Then died on the dumb wolves getting back and lost everything. so stupid, the wolves were easy but I am struggling with when to drink my potions sometimes.
but it sounds like from the minimal guides I have looked at I really want to get up to at least level 20 before I take on the main path?

the one with the npc summon the other guy did most of the work, the first cave I did didn't seem too bad either except since I hadn't gone through the main path I didn't have a torch yet. lol. I had also yet to discover you could fast travel. I'm having fun I guess just a little conservative/afraid about losing progress or doing something dumb/too early because the dying.
Marghit wasn’t too bad for me. Especially once I learned what summon ashes do! The spirit jelly running meat-shield distraction really did the job for me. He did beat me down the first few underlevelled tries so I went and cleared a bunch of dungeons and mini-bosses to buff myself. Just wait for Godrick!
Anyways, I’m nearly full faith now. Throwing magic at anything that moves then dicing them up with my Bleed Dagger when they get close then running away for more magic.

I summoned a real person and got halfway there and then he died and I didn't last long. The jellyfish is pretty good too. I'm at level 25 or so now and haven't killed many bosses since the first two dungeons I stumbled on so I need to take on a few of the other early boss fights. I do have a good feel for the mechanics of my samurai now as well as an understanding of cash in my level before going to a new area so the only thing at risk is what I am doing in each dungeon.
I finally ran into a run of bad luck on optional boss #10 (highroad cave area). Not because the boss. Because there is a jumping/platform bit I can't seem to get past.
Perhaps my biggest complaint is the run/dodge button being the same, so when I try to make a running leap instead I roll backwards off the platform and die.
effing hell.
still my biggest fear is it takes about 10 arrows for me to clear the bats out to get to the platform jump part. and I am running low.

The gameplay is supposedly good. When it's half priced I'll buy.
I went back and got past the platform level and easily beat the golem. So I went back to tree sentinel and he whooped me twice. So I crafted some poison arrows, got up on a spot he couldn't reach, summoned the three wolves and then cheesed him with the arrows.
Take that, loser.
