Dark Souls Walkthrough Part 4 – Undead Burg
Undead Burg
You need to take the stairs up to find another trio of zombies ready for you. Kill them, heal, then head toward the nearby wooden bridge. To the right of the small stairs you will find a large number of barrels. Roll into them to find a ledge below. There you will find another Lost Soul of the Undead. Head off it to the left and down to the ledge below. Another set of zombies are waiting for you. First head left to collect a Lost Soul of the Undead. Now head to the right, into the house, to find more zombies. Continue along this path to find a corpse with Rubbish on it. You will likely get mobbed by Zombies at this point so run quickly for the ladder that is nearby and climb up. You can beat them if you back into the room you just passed through. At the top of the ladder, to the right you will find a corpse with some Humanity on it. Collect it then drop through the gap in the wall ahead. You are back where you started this area now. Head across the wooden bridge. To your left is a doorway with another Zombie inside it. Head in and kill it. Now head back out and into White Light on the opposite side.
Through the White Light you will find a room with a staircase leading up. First look under the staircase to the left to find a corpse with a Lost Soul on it. Now go up the stairs. Be careful as you near the top as a Dragon will quickly touchdown in front of you. Wait for him to pass then move forward. There is another group of Zombies ahead. Be wary of the archer further back for trouble. Try to rush him first, healing on the stairs, to make the fight much easier. Head into the building on your left to find a Bonfire. Ignite it there and rest. Level up if possible. This is the best time to use your gathered souls to be able to improve your character.
Now head to the right. There are a fair number of enemies but nothing too bad. The Zombies you just beat then a new set on the far side of the bridge you will be crossing. Take some time to grind here to get the Hollow Shield but be sure you have the strength to use it one-handed.. Head down the stairs you just ascended and go toward the wood blockade on the left. Take this across to find two more Zombies. Kill them then smash the nearby crates to reveal a staircase. Go down it and out to the balcony on the left to find a merchant.

Now head through the other doorway off from where the merchant is. Once on the far side be careful as you head down the stairs. At the bottom there are Zombies waiting for you. Kill them and go up the ladder. Make your way back to the bonfire and heal up.
Now head across the bridge going to the left. You will have zombies throwing firebombs at you so move quickly. Inside you only have 3 zombies to worry about but the others that were throwing bombs at you might come rushing in. Head through to the terrance on the other side. Head into the nearby house and take out the 1 zombie inside. Head into the deeper room to find a chest with 5 Blackfire Bombs inside it. Now head out and up the large set of stairs. Head immediately into the tower that you see to your left. At the top is an Archer. Kill it first then deal with the zombies below. Now head back toward the stairs you came up and go to the right. There is a ladder there you want to climb. At the top you will find a corpse with a Lost Soul. Now drop down and once again, ascend the far staircase. If you have the Master Key Gift, then you can enter through the nearby church and to the chest behind it to get some Golden Pine Resin. Go past the tower that had the archer and deal with the trio of zombies beyond it. Past them you will find another staircase going up. Take that but be wary as at the top is a zombie with a flaming barrel it will kick at you. So either be ready to roll or simply just head back down the way you came quickly to avoid dying. Ascend the stairs inside to reach the Upper Undead Burg.
