I will use a full Elite Knight set for dlc, How about yall??

It is crucial to aim and swing at the serpent tail

That doesn't really spoil anything except for his attacks.


And the tips were useless. They basically said: "Use good armor while still being able to roll, and make sure you have a high damage weapon."

Oh really? You mean like what you'd typically do through the whole game anyway?

^^ Tru don't forget: "Put on rolling ring, crazy high vitality, maxed out pyro glove, oh and if you're feeling crazy for low sl fight bring Min/Max gear...'

Wonder what kind of weapon we get by chopping off its tail... hmm

Someone told me that you get a whip.

A whip?? It better be toxic & not poison

Artorias boss breakdown coming soon..

Yea I hope so too...

I wonder if it will cause bleeding.. most likely yes

"There is no arguing this guy is deadly."
The use of a relatively bad weapon and shield with no armor might actually have something to do with that. I'm just saying.
Also if they breakdown anything else I will dropkick them right in the face.

Details weren't released but a glimpse was shown at E3 and it appears to be a whip. I'm gonna guess a whip that inflicts poison due to the nature of the beast it comes from.

This got a rep point!? No offence but why?

We already have a bleed whip and a normal whip. This oe would have to be toxic or poison.

I guess this means I'm gonna have to start a new toon in order to get the full benefit of the DLC. :evil:

Time to dust off some of my more wacky builds I think.

Anyone else notice what looks like a new upgrade path?
I could be mistaken though.

Wasn’t it just the crystal path?

It looked too smooth to be that, Ill zoom in on it to see more.

Yeah youre right, damn you low quality video! Got my hopes up

Maybe there’s a new upgrade path, but they didn’t show it in the video?

New magic, why not new path.

hopefully we get new miracles/pyros as well.

What new weapons will be in game I wonder, we already saw the Stone Greataxe, possible a Manticore whip.

Looks like they are pointing out the whole lightning does AoE in water with that boss. however IGN really should not be doing tips videos with those gear setups it just makes them look dumb.

Most of the time they are dumb.

Maybe we get a new covenant?
