Depending on which way he turns during the charge, the player will need to dodge the opposite way. His Heavy Thrust attack will need to be side dodged. After successfully dodging this attack, the player will be able to get one or two hits on him. With his Charging Slash move the player will always want to roll backwards from where he intends to land the attack. Therefore, it is best to get some distance from him instead as the Spinning Slash attack is difficult to get away from when it begins. While he leaves himself open for a few frames, he will usually follow up with his Spinning Slash attack. When he uses his Overhand Smash, roll to the right. Instead use that opportunity to heal or get some distance from him. Avoid attacking after his Steadfast Leap. The player can do this three times and then get in one or two attacks (based on one's weapon) after the third attack lands. When he uses his Somersault Slam attack, the player will want to roll to the right as the camera tilts upward while locked onto him. The player can place themself away from him by about twice his reach at all times, even for melee.Īerial attacks See below for attack name references Being able to fast-roll is highly advised but not necessary. While this boss is rather difficult to predict, he does have a few signs for his attacks, and well-timed rolls prove useful here. Since the souls of the Abyss Watchers effectively merged with Artorias prior to them Linking the Fire, this means via technicality that Artorias is a Lord of Cinder, despite him already being dead for (likely) thousands of years before the formation of the Abyss Watchers. Wielding greatswords modeled after his, and fighting in wild ferocious styles, the Legion fought a veritable war with the dark of the Abyss that their master had fought ages past.
They partook of wolf blood, and it is said that their souls are bound together and are one with the soul of the "wolf blood master", who is Artorias. By the time of Lothric, there was the Undead Legion of Farron, who were commonly called the Abyss Watchers. His legacy as a hero lasted for centuries. Once defeated, Hawkeye Gough mentions the player defeating Artorias, and speaks of him when talked to multiple times. He was then laid to rest by the Chosen Undead after their encounter in the coliseum of Oolacile. Swallowed by the Dark, he became corrupted along with his already-cursed sword. However, the two were overwhelmed, and Artorias sacrificed himself to protect Sif using his Cleansing Greatshield, erecting a barrier around the young wolf. When Oolacile became threatened by the Abyss created by Manus, Artorias and his wolf companion Sif arrived there in an attempt to save Oolacile and rescue the abducted Princess Dusk. In recognition of his actions, he was awarded one of Anor Londo's treasures - a Silver Pendant that allowed him to repel Dark sorceries. Sif, the Great Grey Wolf was his companion, now guarding his grave and keeping the Covenant of Artorias ring in his possession.Īrtorias hunted the Darkwraiths and was able to traverse the Abyss with the power of his ring, which he obtained after making a covenant with the beasts there, preventing him from being swallowed by the void, but cursing his sword in the process. He is known to have been a friend to Alvina of the Forest Hunter covenant. Knight Artorias wore distinctive armor, as well as the Wolf Ring, and brandished his Greatsword and Greatshield. He only makes an appearance in the past, as he is deceased by the time the Chosen Undead escapes the Undead Asylum. Sir Artorias the Abysswalker was one of the Four Knights of Lord Gwyn. Having lost his sanity, the knight moves about in an untamed, beastly manner as he howls beneath the blue shroud of his helm. He possesses a greatsword that has also been consumed, yet is still far from ineffective. Knight Artorias is located in the coliseum area of Oolacile Township, at the end of the Royal Wood.īy the time the Chosen Undead encounters him, Artorias is shown to have already been corrupted by the Abyss with his armor looking putrefied, oozing an aura of darkness. His crippled arm is likely the result of Artorias halting the spread from devouring his wolf companion by means of a now missing shield.
