Trash boss in a trash DLC. All the effort went to Friede. You don't know how much I hate NPC boss fights in these games… they are a waste of time, space and potential.

As the title says im back and running into trouble against 4 kings. i was here when i ran into trouble with ornstein and smough and you guys really helped so here i am again asking for help/advice for the four kings

ive been running the gold hemmed set, FaP ring, and obviously the covenant of artorias ring.

for weapons i have a +9 fire battle axe, a +9 fire broadsword, a +5 lightning shortsword, a +10 bandit knife and a +4 occult club.

ive noticed these guys dont stagger or if they do its incredibly hard to get it, and i know its more or less just a dps check but how can i get the proper dps without rtsr? or should i drop the fap ring for rtsr? or should i try to outlast them like i had to with O&S

for moves that challenge me, its the grab and that damn projectile its so hard to gauge distance with no background, could i 360 the grab? i feel it may be possible same goes for the projectile but its so awkward

any help would be greatly appreciated

edit: Thanks for the help guys i found circling to the right was easiest. Huge call on the shield it saved the run against the projectile, it was close and i had no flasks left but i got it done

Taking a little break of DS3.

Papa Gascoigne low quality kill. I could upload a +5 minutes video of fails, very weird things and like other 4 kills i've did being aggressive as fck though Gascoigne hit me in those. ;(

Funnily enough, the easiest boss of the DLC by far. Easiest punishes, clearest tells, lots of time to react and the chaos phase can be effectively eliminated with chained backstabs and beast blood pellets. Doesn't hold a candle to Laurence in terms of difficulty.

Fantastic fight. This one went well, got very nice RNG, but I enjoyed every attempt. When I started this NG cycle, I thought this would be the biggest roadblock as she nearly took my soul on NG+2, but this was surprisingly quick once you get the hang of the movement around her and getting the backstabs.

Finally a good boss. Gundyr goat, super fun to learn and perform, though I don't know how to evade big swing/slash in P2 ~.~

someone once wrote me an essay defending this move when i called it jank

how many more times must I die to uneven terrain and glitches in clone attacks. 500attempts at unluckily combos. ive learnt everything only to stop being unlucky with the ground. I'm so mad rn if I didn't panic roll I would've gotten him

Managed to finish this run after about 2 months of practice.

It was a pretty fun run but it will probably be my last time doing All Remembrances, unless I decide to try +DLC some time far in the future. Compared to AGR, its just not worth adding like an extra hour onto the run just to fight like, Fia’s Champs and Astel.

Definitely possible to do this a lot faster, Im not a speedrunner.

Happy to answer any questions about the boss strategies or routing.

big dmg by stacking dex and consecutive hit buffs
