How to Get to Demon Ruins Fast
To get to Demon Ruins quickly, proceed to Quelaag’s Domain, located just under where you rang the second bell, and then travel to the Quelaag’s Domain hidden bonfire after obtaining the Lordvessel, allowing you to warp there and bypass certain areas. This shortcut enables you to access Demon Ruins without having to navigate through the entire Quelaag’s Domain, making your journey significantly faster and more efficient.
Understanding the Shortcut
The shortcut to Demon Ruins is accessible after placing the Lordvessel and can be found past the golden fog in the Demon Ruins, essentially allowing you to avoid fighting the Firesage and Centipede Demons by opening the path from the opposite side after defeating these bosses.
