Its gotta be Artorias for me. Manus is cool but his hitboxes can be frustrating. All the other big bosses were kind of underwhelming.

Did that drive anyone else insane or was it just me?

Zaki was clearly bullied alot as a child, there is no other explanation.

I wish i would have snagged a video of an earlier try, where he got stuck behind a pillar and smogh for over a minute, stopped the animation then instantly teleported to me and killed me.

On my last run i killed him during the lunge, then 5 seconds into phase 2 i got hit by the attack and died. So not only is it endless, it transcends death and reality.

This man needs to be in an asylum

The kill and thank you for not bombarding me with "level vigor for godsake" comments. So much more cultured here than the ER reddit lol

No matter how good your feeling, it will always find a way to gank you lol

I never really got the hype with Fume Knight in 4 previous matches. But at 4 vig and 90 agi, this fight is super fun. Enough hp to survive a couple glancing blows from the SS. Enough for 1 shot of the UGS, any long telegraphed attack was a 1 shot.

Some of the hit boxes are bigger than they look and linger, but they all have a long telegraph. The only thing that comes out fairly quick is the SS. Im a fan now dudes badass

Homie diddnt want any girl scout cookies.

**edit: the amount of DM i got telling me i need to level vigor was very sweet lol, but i play at 4 vigor to try to keep some semblance of challenge in the game without limiting myself to a SL1 run where weapon/armor options are very limited. i do appreciate everyones concern though😂

Velstadts homie caught me aura farming after the duel and wasnt happy about it lol.

I decided to see if i could kill the Pontiff casting only, thinking his aggression and range would make it more challenging than melee.

I was wrong, phase 1 i barely had to dodge, just back peddled and soul speared him.

Same with phase 2. It seemed like once i got to a certain range he just stanced and aura farmed for a good 10 seconds and wouldnt react no matter how many spears hit him.

Do all bosses react this way?

*Just to clarify for the 60 vigor summon crowd thats a little slow, the point isnt to show off skill, the point is that I barley made any effort, with 9 vigor, and still won comfortably. therefore, magic is easy mode. Anyone who disagrees is in denial of their crutch. 🤏

I just finished my first ever caster run in a souls game on DS1 and it was a nice change of pace. I decided to try it on ds3 and just wanted some advice from vet casters.

Right now im min reqs for sycthe(raw), then 33ish int, 20 end and everything else at base sorcerer stats. Im going to run at 9vigor through game but afterwards respec for pvp. Whats a good vig point for caster, im planning on trying luck/int.

And are there any tips for free aiming? Especially from a stand still. i am hot garbage at it unless im able to walk towards the target, and even then im just cold garbage.

Video is just because i was proud of myself for clapping them on my 2nd try and id like a pat on the back.

Super fun fight. Realized about halfway that baiting the thrust gave the best opening for a heavy attack. This is only the 2nd time ive faced him(outside of NR) and on the first run i had a full build so it wasnt much of a fight.

Just got Manus and 4 kings left now.
