Can You Beat Dark Souls As A Level 1 Dragon?

And so it shall come to pass that the unbelievers shalt be rent asunder by the fury of fire and the ripping of claws... is what I'd say if I was trying to sound dramatic, but I'm not, so I'll just ask this instead: can you beat Dark Souls as a soul level 1 dragon? Yes. Duh.

Funny story about Nito's sword plunge attack: the hitbox is exclusively on the ground where the sword comes up, not the blade itself. So even if you have Iron Flesh on, there are certain moves and gestures you can perform which spread your legs slightly, allowing his sword to pass harmlessly up through your body, crotch first.

[@Karan-Aujla]

33:18 something that would have helped you here to know is when one of the kings is dying, its hitbox is still active and you can continue to reduce the boss healthbar. if you do this well to each one then the final king can have a tiny fraction of his normal hp, ending the fight many hits sooner
