Well, the bonewheel area can easily be mastered if you can lure them one by one and dodge them(tricky)

But Kalameet is just plain impossible, the timing wasn't made for humans to beat at SL1.

50+ tries and i got him to 50%...Fuuunnnnnnn Timessssssssssszzzzzz....

Tomb is the easiest area, takes like 20 seconds to use the run off ledges short cut, no need to stop for pinwheels or babbies then you hit Nito and realize you forgot to downgrade that stupid occult club from AL, and then you accidently aggro the big skellies dodging scream sword.

Then you Cry. Honestly as an SL1 I've had more problems with Nito than any other boss. Theres just too many things in the room all at once.

Manus isn't as hard as people think at SL1. You just need infinate patience because you can't punish around half of his patterns, and when you do hit him his health bar scoffs at you like you were some insect. It's just time consuming though

Small update.

1. Sen is a bastard.
2. elf ears + bellowing ring + rtsr + not even maxed pyro flame = ridiculous (ask the iron golem)
3. at SL1 the spear demons are more scary than the dragon bow archers
4. Orenstien will stab you through the giant stone pillars

And get sent back 1Km away when you hit them

He will also start the jet fighter wind up animation, lag, feign walking, lag again, teleport into jet fighter position, get stuck into smough, free himself and come at you at full speed from the side of the pillar you try to hide behind.

Then smough will power walk you into a wall while ornstein shoots lightning at you, then jet fighters you back to the bonfire, with a little less will to live

Ya, I think I'll take a break from my sl1 today and PvP a bit.

I'll try O&S again later. They are the first boss to give me ninja gaiden levels of frustration..

Firetempest with a full pyro flame can drop Orns if he gets tagged by 2 pillars zipping about(PW active BDCR on, might not even need all that I'm not certain) Just walk through the fog, dash over to a pillar then cast when he gets close, he'll most likely jump or dash right into killing himself

O&S are really frustrating the first time you take them on as SL1, but over time, they become much easier to deal with.
Kalameet however is a pain. Killing him is really damn hard as a SL1. Much, MUCH harder on NG+7. Good luck when you reach him.

Don't have fire tempest, so not really an option. Used all my souls in blight town for glove upgrades, still not quite maxed out. Killing her for tempest would have been a bad idea.

The ring trick for power within is a good shout. Will try that.

I do want to kill ornstein last and get the leo ring... more as a trophy than anything. I've found that it's much harder than killing him first. He's much harder to keep track off than smough.

smough = annoying (fat) mosquito that's more of a nuisance than anything
ornstein = killer bee

I've got a couple vids of me sl1 beating four kings and Seath the Scaleless. Seath was a joke, I even got the MLGS and didn't take an ounce of damage. Four Kings was tricky and so was S&O. I don't use PW because I didn't know it had been patched. I just used my upgraded pryo glove and reinforced mace. I actually don't use rtsr either. No need in NG. Maybe NG +

Search subby280, I think I have 2 SL1 videos boss fights up there.

Not worried about seath, getting the tail is easy if you let him destroy his own life source.

Will check out your O&S video.

Cheers.

I don't have the O&S video, just four kings before I got my HD PVR so the copy isn't too good.

I've literally done so many SL 1 runs that I've actually began putting restrictions on myself when I fight them.
My best so far has been to kill them with no armour, no Pyro, no DWGR, and only a +10 Hand Axe. Hoping to go with no stamina regen next time but that's only if I even do another SL 1 run.

ugh... crazy... I'll just be happy to kill them at SL1 with all the crutches I can muster
