Blind the Maneaters

Equip the Dark Silver shield (can be won from Garl Vinland at last area of World 5). The Maneaters' snake tails will occasionally imbue them with a yellow power. If you stand directly in front of them and guard when the snake rises above the rest of the creature, the flash of yellow will temporarily blind the Maneater, allowing for one or two heavy hits before dodging to safety. It is not known if this works with other shields.

Boletarian Palace: Dead Red Dragon benefits

Because you killed the Red Dragon you can now go back to Boletarian Palace where the two dragons were sleeping (before the bridge to the main gate lever). Get those items without the dragons being present. You will get Ring of Strength, Ring of Fire Resistance and a Renounced Hero Soul.

Boletarian Palace: Mausoleum key

Ostrava has the key to the mausoleum in Boletarian Palace. Normally you would have to save his life three times to get the key, but he mainly gives you useless items. You can kill him the first time you meet him. You can then take the key. He is very easy to kill. This is useful for new players, as there is a chance that Ostrava can die while you are playing and you will then lose your chance at getting the key.

Defeating the Red Dragon

The Red Dragon on the bridge going to the Tower Knight is easy to kill. Get a crossbow and 100 bolts. Go to the top of the first tower on the bridge. Kill the two archers. You will see three archer windows. Go to the one on the far right. This may require about 20 to 30 minutes but it is worth it. Lock on to the dragon every time he swoops down to burn the bridge. You will eventually kill him and get about 8,000 souls and his lead soul.

Farming souls

A great place to farm is in 4-2, the Shrine of Storms. Equip the Ring of Avarice the Viscous Compound Long Bow +5 and Arrows. With the 4-2 Archstone and go down the hall and pass Graverobber Blige. Stand at the edge of the floor and fire downwards at the Reaper. Fall off the cliff, respawn, get your bloodstain and repeat the entire process.

In 4-3, after defeating the storm king, there is a sword near the edge of the cliff. the sword is the Storm Rulet. This sword has a special effect of "cleaving the sky" in 4-3 (i.e., it sends out a shock wave that can hit the flying things in the air). Combine this with the Ring of Avarice and Warding and you can get 20,000 souls each time you visit 4-3.

Fight the Old One Early

If you manage to beat the nigh-impossible Vanguard at the end of the tutorial you will be transported to a new area. You can see a massive dragon outside the windows. If you explore around, you can find many soldier's souls, and other items. However, once you run outside, the Old One will punch you straight in the face and kill you immediately, thus sending you to the Nexus anyways.

Halloween mode

Set the system date to October 31. The enemies will be more difficult, and will have better rewards when defeated.

Item and Soul Duplication

For this cheat you'll need two people, Legendary Heros Souls, and an item you can drop from weapons to other souls etc.

Summon a blue phantom or black phantom. Have the phantom drop the items. Then, have him either quit game with the PS button or pull his ethernet cable out (not recommended). Summon him back in and have him drop more of the items and leave again. Each time he does this he'll keep his share of the items like he never dropped them and you can collect the copies.

You can do this with Legendary Hero's/Soldier's Souls. You can only do this with items you can drop. Not boss souls, sadly.

Keep Your Souls for a Second Chance

When you die, hit the PS button quickly and quit out of the game before it auto-saves. You can re-load your game with all your Souls.

Newbie's Tip

Here're a couple tips for a beginners:

The thief ring is invaluable.
A bow can be your best friend, don't be afraid to snipe!
You can cheese your way through anything with poison cloud.
Being quick and avoiding damage completely is better than bulking up your actual armor.

Once you learn your enemies' attacks you can manipulate your health using certain items and take advantage the Clever Rats Ring to mop the floor with them.

Quick Soul gaining

After defeating the first Boss at the Shrine Of Storms, your next task invites you to a room below. When you walk in you will be greeted by three Lesser Demons on the level you are on with more at the bottom. Take out the three on your level first, then walk back to the door that you used to enter. Use your bow and shoot at the demon with the scythe (resembles death). This kills all remaining demons in the immediate area, resulting in about 4,500 Souls. Go to the Archstone from the Boss to teleport to the Nexus. Go back and repeat the steps as many times as desired. Note: Equip the Ring Of Alvarice (soul booster) to obtain about 5,250 to 5,500 souls each time.

Thief Ring and Cling Ring

Be sure not to miss these rings:

Cling Ring: In the first level where you don't have your soul, after you get to the top of the castle, you'll fight a blue demon knight that's right in front of a fog gate. Beat him then go past him, not into the fog gate, and go down the stairs, when you reach the bottom there will be a lever to open the gate and you will find the Cling Ring -- it lets you keep more health when in soul form.

Thief Ring: After that first blue demon knight, go through the Fog gate, and you'll come to some stairs and you'll see over the ledge will be a gold knight (he is friendly and gives you rewards when you help him). Roll down the side of the stairs to the ledge and get to where he is. The Thief ring is behind him in the corner.

Thieves' Ring and Blind Sword

There are three good ways to get the Thieves' Ring, which helps you steal valuable items from defeated monsters, including the Blind Sword.

On level 1-1 when you go down the set of stairs after you fight the two halberd men on the bridge, jump off the ledge to get to where Ostrava is. You will find a thieves' ring there.

On level 4-2, kill Patches The Hyena.

On 5-2, where you would find Seland Vinland, go to the right where the glowing orb that represents an item is. You'll find a Thieves Ring.

Before reading the rest of this I need to let you know that you need to have beaten the game once. If not, the item/enemy may not appear!

In 5-2 you can get the sword "Blind" which ignores armor and does damage directly to the enemy. You will need Pure Black Soul Tendency to do this.

If you are not an experienced player, and this is only your 2nd time through, 5-1 can be very challenging. So, be careful!

Before you go to the level, make sure you have SoulSucker equipped. Go to the level and equip your thieves' ring. Navigate through the level until you get to the island that has Depraved Ones, a Giant Depraved One, and a Giant BP on the island.

Unless you can take them all out without trouble, sneak by them and head for the fog. Once you go into the fog, jump off the bridge to your right.

When you look over, you will see a BP Selend Vinland. Stay close to the wall and sneak up behind her. If she moves her head to look around, stop and freeze.

When she stops looking for attackers, get close (but do not come into physical contact) and use SoulSucker for an instant kill and the sword Blind.
