I started a challenge this morning with my main character -- sl 381-- NG+infinity. I've done a few NG challenges, but figured NG+infinity is where the true difficulty is, so I decided to try a playthrough with my Wanderer character's starting weapon, a scimitar at +0.
It was incredibly fun through the Taurus Demon (funnest fight with him since my first time), but once I got to The Bell Gargoyles I decided to re-think the challenge. I only allowed item buffs, so my 2-handed hits were doing like 40 damage, and once there were two of them I could only dodge for so long. At infinity even the standard hollow guys were taking 12 R1 hits to kill, and I couldn't even 1-shot them with a riposte. In fact, they took a riposte, a backstab, AND an R1 attack to go down.
Any challenges you all have tried that proved too challenging?
