@JonNik, Thanks for the advice. There is a lot to learn here.
Made more progress tonight than probably all my other time combined. I have the controls pretty well mastered now.
After killing Havel, I took out the Taurus Demon. He was very easy, the plunge attack almost feels like a cheat but in this game I'll take every advantage I can get.
I have the drake sword, but for now I'm not going to use it. The bandit dagger just feels right for a thief, I like the short quick strikes. I've become pretty proficient backstabbing with it and am even getting pretty good at parrying and riposte.
I made it to the parish also but didn't find the bonfire and got killed by a knight so I'm all the way back to the undead burg. I forgot to re-lock on after backstabbing so when I went to back peddle I turned my back to him instead and that was that. I've died this way a number of times, not sure why they make you re-lock on or why my dumb-ass can't remember to.
Got a long day of work tomorrow so unfortunately my long trip back to the parish for my 9000 souls and a little payback will have to wait.
I have quite a few titanite shards. I got a different one (can't remember what it was called) from killing some kind of crystal lizard or something that was in a barrel I broke. I haven't located the blacksmith yet though.
I did have gold pine resin but used it all up on Havel.
