A unique Challenge ?

A +15 Reinforced Club with Gold Pine should make mincemeat out of 4kids, just get into RTSR range and stay there. With RTSR you will kill each king easily before the next spawns.

Though personally I am saving my Hand Axe for them as you can often get two hits inbetween their attacks while the club only gets 1 (and each hit applies the buff damage)

Firebombs are for Capra. Throwing Knives for Taurus and Poison Knives I'll use on Sif now that I know it's possible (not entirely sure which other bosses they would take down....probably pinwheel but I was going to broken sword his easy butt)

The hardest part is figuring out where to put the thrown items, because you have a limited amount I don't think it'd be possible to kill Seath with throwing knives, you'd run out.

I've never used the red tearstone ring before, but I guess it's worth a shot. I could only die again, right?

I've already used two slabs to max equipment... I'd hate to have to farm for another. I'm stuck at a Lightning+4

After what seems like weeks of fighting (but I guess it was only a day), the Four Kings are finally dead!

I just have Gwyn to go. I think I'm going to take a trip to the Hidden Hollow first for Demon's titanite to fully upgrade the Crystal Ring Shield. If I decide to try this challenge on ng+ (but use different weapons against different bosses), I will need that shield at +5. I probably won't attempt this challenge at ng+. The Four Kings [shudder]....

[ ... what a wasted trip. The Great Hollow has Dragon Stones, not Demon's titanite... ]

Anyway, here's the gear/tactics I used on the Four Kings on ng.

Spoiler:

I would like to thank DSG78gaming for his encouragement on my fight with the Four Kings. I had given up trying this setup for the fight, but he told me that he was able to defeat them using that armor.

[ ... I made a couple of corrections to my response ... ]

Gwyn is dead; finally. There was a lot of farming involved in this challenge. I did a lot of co-op to buy items/ore. There was plenty of satisfaction and plenty of frustration.

It took me 103 hours over 19 days to complete this challenge. I'm glad it's over. I think I'm going to take a break from Dark Souls now.

Here's my gear and tactics. I would love to read how other people are doing on this challenge. The first bosses are the best fights. When you get to the Lord's Souls, you should be down to your strongest weapons. With the exception of Bed of Chaos, of course.

BTW, DSG78gaming has completed his video uploads; there are six videos that are well worth watching.
