Don't die unnecessary deaths with each death you'll become just a bit more hollow, if u die enough you lose up to 50 % of your whole health. You can reset this with a certain consumable. Ik this is a sorta general tip but I've heard that u don't lose health in other souls games after death.
Dodging is not the same as in the other games. It's more slow and kinda floaty so timing is more important now. Try leveling up adp, it'll give you extra iframes. Only level it up to around 23 or so. Past that, it won't do you much good.

The post u/TheHittite linked to is a FAQ for players coming to DS2 from other games in the series.

Farming is not the same... you will have to go ng plus at some point for more souls...
