My favourite boss weapon of Dark Souls 1 is chaos zweihander. What I like about it, that you don't have to kill a boss or refine the soul or cut the tail, you have to become the boss, the giant dad yourself. Very unique mechanic.

[@colonelquesadilla5080]

Didn’t mention my favourite weapons in my comment on the community post so I’ll do that now. I don’t often use boss weapons in DS1 due to how they’re created, but some are fun enough to be worth it once in awhile. My favourite of these would actually be the Crystal Ring Shield, as it looks quite cool and the special attack is a lot of fun to use. Since it’s a shield you can also make use of another weapon in the right hand, a kind of dual wielding that other boss weapons in DS1 won’t allow. In terms of tail weapons, I’d funnily enough go with the Obsidian greatsword. On the downside, it’s gained from an absurdly obnoxious tail cut on one of my least favourite bosses in the game, but once that’s done you’re left with only positives. It feels like a DS2 or 3 weapon with that special attack, which is great in both PvE and PvP. Honourable mention to the Moonlight Greatsword, which lets you turn the tables and use those awful DS1 lingering explosion hitboxes to your own benefit.

[@JKLeeds]

Yeah I need to try Crystal Ring Shield tbh, saw a challenge run around it and it looks pretty fun!

[@anonecki]

The great thing about the Obsidian GS is that it can be buffed, unlike other dragon weapons. It absolutely carried me on my first randomizer run lol

[@evelinetheoofdemon6003]

I agree with most of this but the abyss greatsword and quelaags furysword are also excelent . Also same opinion about kalameet, dude pulls so much bs on me every damn time :(

[@TheKiddo2468]

I really like the Moonlight Butterfly horn on DS1 for some reason. It’s one of my favorite bosses and I always love to play dex/int builds. Or the Gargoyle’s tail axe

[@JKLeeds]

I might try and kill the Moonlight Butterfly with it in a future run 😄

[@TheKiddo2468]

[@GrandLynx-kp2zi]

[@PurplestLink]

If you get the shield in painted world that reduces bleed buildup and the Bloodbite ring, you can use the lifehunt scythe with basically no drawbacks, unless you manage to attack 50 times in a row. It does comparable damage to a maxxed great scythe with a ton more bleed buildup, and it's not hard to have a plus 3 or 4 before you even get to O&S

If you're having trouble cutting Seath's tail, the easies way to do it is to bait him into destroying his own crystal and run behind him while he's staggered. Bone out if you don't get the tail cut and repeat until successful.

I love Obsidian Greatsword, the tail cut of Kalameet. 2h heavy when it is buffed deals major damage

[@vegy08b06]

I think there's also a fist weapon you can get from the Iron Golem that could have saved you bending the rules with Stray Demon. You could have also totally justified using the Crystal Ring Shield after the moonlight butterfly, although that'd mean you had enough weapons to do the centipede demon fight, so perhaps best we just forget about that one...

[@cjw8497]

When i saw the title of this video, I tried to figure out a route that was possible. Not counting the asylum demon there are 25 bosses, and you can start in firelink with the Demon Hammer. You need 24 more weapons. You can get 20 from drops (including the Gargoyle shield). If you include any weapon upgraded with demon titanite you can get the Gravelord Sword and Demon Spear. If you include all tail cuts you can get the Drake sword and Dragon Greatsword. With that, you can barely make it to the end of the game.

[@cjw8497]

Also, if you allow glitches you can dupe boss souls and that would get you 6 more weapons (I think). But duping boss souls on console is an annoying process.

[@JKLeeds]

Yeah I wanted to do it without glitches if possible. As you say, it is JUST barely possible

[@ignisshadowflame1027]

I like the Dark Knight Halberd and the lifehunt scythe.

[@patrickseelye1485]

I know this isn't a glitch playthrough but if you allowed glitches you could get around your rule breaks. Using the firebomb quitout on the asylum demon would keep it alive but let you get the key, you can get the Dragon King Greataxe, Gargoyle Tail Axe, Pricilla's Dagger, Moonlight Greatsword, Guardian Tail, and Obsidian Greatsword without killing any bosses (Depth clip, iron golem wrong warp, and early archives).

actually, there is a way to kill the asylum demon with a boss weapon chose the BFB for starting, kill the asylum demon to get the Demon's Great Hammer, quit the game while the death animation its still running. and now you can kill the asylum demon with the Demon's Great Hammer, a boss weapon drop
