@@blackknight5465 I can’t entirely say, but a single dragon was worth 3 scores of Gwyns soldiers so I feel like eventually the bosses would slowly trim their numbers over time

[@Ollybollyk]

​@@blackknight5465 Well to begin with, there's a difference between wanting to link the flame and having the strength to do it. Of those who were capable, a lot of them had no interest in linking the flame, such as Logan and his apprentice. Then, to link the flame you have to first reach Lordran. This alone is where most great warriors failed already, many perished before even reaching Lordran alone, let alone leading an entire raiding party inside without being separated by drakes, demons, hollows. Not to mention that Gwyn was probably not stupid enough to leave his kingdom open to attack by any upstart warlord, so the land of Lords probably had many standing and effective defenses against invading armies (take the knights in darkroot garden for example). Also keep in mind that most npcs you meet ingame are of Legend (even the crestfallen warrior is no small pushover), with the chosen undead being one of the most powerful humans to have ever existed by the end of the game by that point in time. Astora, one of the most advanced of the human kingdoms in the game, was almost destroyed entirely by a single great beast, who likely would have been on par with many of the opponents faced in Lordran. Hell, even a single Taurus demon could likely wreak havoc on several villages and a town before it is brought down with major casualties, just imagine what kind of destruction something like the centipede demon could do to a human army, they can count their blessings if they survive with half their men. So to perform a task like that, you'd need scouts who can effectively traverse Lordran without getting killed to avoid traps and ambushes, a way to bypass Gwyn's anti-siege defenses, an army of warriors capable of holding their own against adversaries even Gwyn's own knights struggled to keep at bay. And none of that is keeping in mind the effects of hollowing, or the massive amounts of resources an army of that size and power would require, even a small raiding party of powerful knights is something most kings could only dream of putting together. Even if there were kingdoms capable of this kind of investment, most of the outside world (Lordran as well to be fair) had apparently been torn to pieces by the hollowing of individuals, leaving many great kingdoms either crippled or fallen to ruin entirely. They could barely survive as it is, forget putting together an army. Seemingly, the Knights of Berenike are the only trained warriors who managed to reach Lordran either separately or together, but even they went hollow before reaching Anor Londo despite being among the greatest of Knights. The fact it was literal beef jerky packaged in filthy rags, imprisoned in a cell inside an asylum designed to keep the undead inside, that eventually achieved a feat most gods probably couldn't have achieved on their own if they tried, is almost insulting to the gods themselves.

[@DorrionFinley]

@@brohvakiindova4452 Thats not really how staggering works but because of the sheer number attacks your explanation checks out. How staggering really works is that Artorias has 130 poise when not charging in the Abyss. That means a total of 131+ poise damage needs to be delt in the timeframe of 5 seconds for Artorias to stagger. So while true that the sheer number of small attacks did stagger Artorias, a single 2 handed Zweihander does more poise damage than three 2 handed Uchigatana attacks. And you can get the Zwei attack off faster than 3 Uchi's. Also Logan's Soul Spear does 80 poise damage leaving only 51 poise left over to be delt which either of the Sieg family could do with one 2 handed attack.

[@brohvakiindova4452]

@@DorrionFinley you just explained that's exactly how staggering works I specifically said a dozen tiny attacks, of course a single player with uchi doesn't stagger as reliable as with harder hitting zweihänder 5 seconds is plenty of time for that many npcs to attack and the way the AI really sucks at positioning itself correctly for multiple attacks the faster hitting weapons do a better job stun locking that being said with the sheer number of NPCs, if all were using zweihänder it would be equally as good most likely for player weapon an estoc works similarly good for poise breaking as an UGS or in DS2 dual wielded clubs also wreck almost any staggerable enemy

[@uninconnu5844]

"I am sorry, Artorias, but as a Knight of Gwyn, I cannot let such a powerful pawn of the Abyss escape. Come back to your senses and surrender now, or prepare to face us." If Young Sif dies during the fight, Artorias comes back to his senses, drops to his knees and, after crying for a while, he asks you to kill him. If Artorias is killed by Ciaran, cinematic with Ciaran stabbing both of her blades in Artorias, and whispering to him that his legend would not be sullied by a mention of his treason. If Sif kills him, Artorias falls to the ground, gives Sif a last headpat and tells her that she's a true warrior, one that defeated even Artorias. If the player defeats Artorias, "I don't know who you are, but please, finish what I started. Take down Manus, who I was tasked to stop"

[@therandomartist3201]

At the end of Ooacile, when all hope seemed lost, a small group of brave warriors marched through the garden, past the Kalameet, and into the place where Knight Artorias finally descended into a abyss made madness. No one knew why they came or how they came to be in the land, nor could anyone understand why they all worked together so well, with magic, miracles, pyromancy, and blades as far as the eye can see, they should of been at each other’s throat or indifferent to one another, but here they stood, marching towards the abyss. Times like these it’s good to remember One should be thankful for the friends they have. A certain Undead was.

Damn. You know, it would actually be super cool to see this but Artorias at his full strength with his companion Sif. Like fix his arm and give him his greatshield, up his health cause he ain't "hollow", then pair him with his doggo. I doubt him before he was consumed by the Abyss is even in the games files but if someone coded it all in, idk, it'd be cool and something I'd support financially.
