Four kings NG++++ help

I'm sl 213 on psn, if anyone could come on now to help me out i'd greatly appreciate it. Do i need to lower the water before i can summon? Because if so that sucks, stupid ghosts.

EDIT: I just opened the floodgates, so i can summon now.

sry wish i could but i'm xbox live sry try iron flesh it work's for me all the time

You do need to lower the water before you can summon. Wish I could help sorry.

like i said i use iron flesh every time along with something with lightning or in my case the greatsword of artorias

Even with iron flesh they do about 600 damage per melee hit, even more with their magic. If i were only facing them one at a time fair enough, but you can't kill them before another one spawns without help.

sry i always just go to the near'st thing and kill as fast as i can. do you move allot i just plant my feet and fight the other's don't usual'y don't attack me

Thats how i got through ng+ and ng++, i would stay right near one of them and the others wouldn't agro, however for some reason they do now.

You've gotta get mobile. All their attacks are avoidable. Use the crest shield to block the projectile attacks and dodge everything else. I don't know what your build is but, magic is very effective. I am a dex/pyro build and I just fireball and great combustion until I'm out and then I start to melee.

I can help. Refresh my memory; didn't we defeat them yesterday?

Yesterday was crazy for me helping people with all my characters. Different soul levels, different bosses. I've never had a day like that before, even with Demon's Souls.

i have a SL 240ish and a 180ish. The 180is is a caster and will make very short work of them. And I'm currently leveling it up so it may work. If not we can try with the 240. Add me on PSN and message me.

I have a 225 if u still need help.

do not do this, in ng++ and on they spawn too fast to just stand there, youre gonna get ganbaged byu them, you have to dodge their attack, theyre actualy easy to avoid once you get used to them. go with light armor with high magic res like painting guardian, dingy, xanthous and logan's robes. just attack and dodge.

Dodging is all well and good, but A: i'm terrible at it and B: i don't think i could dodge 2 at once, never mind 3 or 4.

its still better than tanking them, tanking them will not work. just practice and you'll get good in no time.

Ok, so if i were to try dodging them, should i use power within for more damage, or great magic barrier for more magic defence?

Um... wrong thread post? If not, i've got no idea what you're going on about

No, i forgot about the ghosts lol, i managed to kill them in the end, but i''l keep that in mind.

In new Game ++++ I used sunlight blade. then Dark moon blade and then Crystal magic weapon to beat them I just two handed R1 them to death with the Demon Machette + 15 was level 244 when I did this with 99 humanity. with havels shield two handed in the secondary right hand slot.

So you used the havel's shield special ability? Thing is, it weighs a ton (i.e no good for dodging) and only has one use per shield, unless i bought a load of repair powder.

not really I used it to block when I needed to since I was wearing 0 poise armor and I was really light I also had really high endurance to carry everything my stats were every where.

Oh, i only have 40 endurance so i'd be screwed if i used havel's shield (i refuse to take off the RoFaP). Also, what kind of weapon should i use? Should i use a strong but slow weapon (greataxe or zweihander or someting), or a fast yet weak weapon (either a falchion +15 or furysword)?
