Gwyn is weak to fire because he is a god, carrier of the lord soul of Light. There were four lord souls: Light, Dark, Life, and Death. They correspond to the elements of Lightning, Dark, Fire, and Poison/Toxic. The Lords are resistant to their own damage type and vulnerable to the others, but especially vulnerable to their opposite. Nito, for example, is very vulnerable to fire (life).

Gwyn knew he couldn't waste time with Leeroy

[@zletroscreations1234]

I thought similarly to Havel, but alas...

[@hudsongrove5586]

Honestly this was so beautiful and genuinely emotional for certain characters... Solaire easily could have been the chosen undead instead and it's fitting that he got closest on his own against Gwyn. Heart-wrenching to see Siegmeyer come so close to victory over Gwyn after watching him murder his daughter, only to fall short in the final moments of this last adventure... glad Solaire was able to best Gwyn in the end though, he deserves it.

We are missing the misadventures team: Oscar,Solaire and Lautrec!

And their hijinks to get laid in a post hollow world LMAO

Take on me blaring in the background as they jump his ass

[@geminiwolf91]

I love the little poke at 12:20 and then Gwyn just grabbing him and blowing him up.

[@nicolovoci7265]

Tarkus with your fire resistance you REALLY disappoint me, Solaire you will be always the best buddy

[@crestfallenwarrior5719]

Tarkus is supposed to help with an early game boss. It was impressive, If you think about it.

pyromancers started linking the fire before gwyn was even dead lol

When oscar dies, does anyone else hear “regrettably, i have failed in my mission…” play reflexively in their head?

[@alextikasz5976]

I go ahead and say: No one will be a match for the Great Lord Gwyn! Edit: nvm Team Solaire and Team Pyro for the win

Honorable mentions to the Onion family, they got Gwyn down real low!

[@soully9568]

Typical Solaire fanboy. The team was team Astora, but because you see Solaire, hes the only one the matters

[@pawelmatal9563]

​@@soully9568 I call it "Team of Astora" because every one of the is "name" of Astora

It was definitely satisfying seeing Patches annihilated by Gwyns grab attack..🔥💥

Team Sorcerers: Witch Beatrice, Griggs, Logan Ingward: Am I a Joke to you?

[@trychydts]

Actually yeah. :)

[@olu550]

Patches very quickly realizing he is indeed not that guy and backing off for the rest of the fight is great. So is Darkmoon Knightess stancing up and getting hit with a "parry this casul" grab

[@PavelFadrhonc]

I was missing Team Heavy - Havel & Tarkus

[@nohrjinn]

Team Astora even makes sense...It was pretty much possible for Oscar to be the Chosen Undead in the main story, and then he would have been there with Solaire anyway at the end...I love how - based on this - he had the real chance to be the one

13:25 Hesitation is defeat.
