this fight would last 2 minutes if Ornstein couldn't hit you through Smough

BEHOLD! Possibly the only duo (multiple) boss fight in any souls game that doesn't suck balls!

do they bleed?

I know i'm going to get a lot of hate but this fight is really overrated, the fight is not that hard as people say ( though i played BB,Ds2,Ds3,Demon souls, and ER before this game) and there are better duo fights out there.

ds2 *** runback

impossible to win solo without spending a week straight playing the f%$@!ng game... always try summoning.

I always save him for last to have some one on one time with this f#. Because f# his broken gliding stab attack where he gets stuck on either a pillar or Smough. He can cancel out of the dash when obstructed and then turn towards you and instantly dash again. Why this is so f#ed up is because Smough can do his own thing and you need to react to Ornstein's delayed dash as well. This resulting in dodging Smough's attack and getting hit by Ornstein's dash when your roll ends or vice versa. I can deal with it most of the times this happens, but sometimes this BS can't be safely avoided.

worst boss fight in ds1

hot take: these guys are overrated. for a mid game boss theyre the hardest boss in the game for some reason. also both phase 2s are literally just "lets make the living guy instantly kill you and become big." theyre still probably one of the better ds1 fights and certainly one of the better duo fights.

This boss is enjoyable if and only if you focus ornstein first, the other way around is complete misery the entire way through.
