I would actually strongly discourage taking him down with a bow. Because so many players used to kill the drake by shooting his tail hundreds of times, From Software patched in a mechanic where the drake starts healing after a certain amount of damage with a bow. So taking him down with a bow is extremely hard and actually very much impossible on early levels. My advice would be to time right and just run like hell. If you run just as the flames are out, you will make it.
Just fight 'em. It can be a lot of fun... and hey, if you win, all the more sweeter. :)
Well I do like being summoned by someone to test out a new boss. So online mode has its merits. But the whole pvp thing isn't my thing. Maybe if I win a few rounds I'll feel different
Didn't pay for online service on Switch so I play offline, but the Remastered on PS4 / X1 / PC had char lvl + weapon lvl restriction for online unless using a password. It might be your +15 lvl weapon.
In vanilla that would've been spot on for O&S. The weapon upgrade matchmaking was a mistake imo. It never really got better than vanilla DS1 for matchmaking, they started messing with it in DS2 and it was downhill from there.
Yes, if you want his weapon and armor set later on after beating him in 3 invasion. If not, then No.
If weapon lvl restriction is place, the game will permanently mark your weapon lvl once you upgrade or pick a weapon up. Dropping / removing the weapon and/or storing the weapon won't ever lower your weapon lvl.
Crown of Dusk, Crimson Robe, Brigand Gauntlets and Crimson Waistcloth for armour. Sorcerer's catalyst and a Claymore in the right hand, Dragon Crest Shield in the left. For rings I'm using the Bellowing Dragoncrest and White Seance.
Divine adds an additional faith scaling, but it may lower the physical scaling a bit. The damage is now split between physical and faith, so you add those 2 numbers up. You may start dealing less eventually when enemies start having more resistances and your damage gets reduced twice.
