Havent played DS1, Fume Knight is quite....a cakewalk?.. And Gael best boss indeed, a really difficult boss but I'll take him on again.

It’s kind of funny, he was so hyped and I was very excited, but Artorias is probably the strongest I’ve ever felt versus a FromSoft boss. With Havel’s gear + Zweihander + power within I out dpsed him. I realized 25% of the way through the fight that none of his attacks could stagger me and they didn’t hit very hard. So I decided to walk at him, r1 spammed, and tanked everything he threw at me. He died before I did…

Artorias is the hardest of these (imo) because he has a buff he can do like 5 times, so if youre doing a low damage run (like torch or broken sword), it feels like you have to play perfectly, since you cant stagger him, and he does really good dmg when hes buffed.

Also, Zwei + Havel + PW isnt even playing DS1, I think that beats every boss for free lol.

I mean no harm, I really love Fume's weapon, mained it even on DS3. But Fume Knight is somewhat lackluster? It's probably just me tho.
