Beating bosses,and the red kite dragon(on the bridge). hints and tips for Dark Souls

Beating bosses,and the red kite dragon(on the bridge).

Ok...I have beaten a fair few bosses and the kite dragon,so I will give hints about how to beat them.(note:using these hints is up to you)

First is easy"ASYLUM DEMON".you can't kill him right away,first you must find a sword and shield(weapon varies on class).

Next is"TAUROS DEMON"(bull demon).early in the game you will come across some pine resin

That will come in handy for this battle.first off when you get to the pass between the watchtowers climb the ladder(at right of first tower)and kill the two archers at the top,then climb back down walk toward the other tower and embue your sword with lightning(from pine resin).when you see him jump down from the top run back to first tower and climb ladder,now he will be at base of tower.use drop thrust to deal maximum damage,and then the rest is easy.

Now the"BELL GARGOYLES".First you must talk to the man on the bridge near kite dragon and he will give you the white soapstone which will let you summon his phantom,this will come in handy as you cannot beat them both by yourself.now the battle.when you start the fight it will only be one,but halfway through the second one will fly down(be careful as they both breath fire now).attack one of the gargoyles from behind for a chance to claim the axe-tail as a weapon,and after the battle climb the tower to ring the bell.

The "CAPRA DEMON"(goat demon)is very difficult to kill.first you will need magic that rienforces your shield and a divine weapon(astras sraight sword,which can be found at valley of the drakes)to kill him,but he also has to hell hounds backing him up so kill them while avoiding his attacks(double side cleave,double drop chop)he uses dual club swords so care is needed.(you can also summon a phantom for this battle but you need to be human).After this battle you get key to the depths.

The"MOONLIGHT BUTTERFLY"is powerful but easy to kill.first you need arrows or spells to kill her,and perfect timing when dodging her magic attacks.after rolling around avoiding her attacks for awhile she will rest near the flowers on the bridge,she is now within sword range so attack while you have the chance,but don't stay there to long because she will release all the energy that was stored up.(she also heals herself at this time)divine weapons deal normal damage.

"PINWHEEL" is easy to kill(remenisent of the fools idol)embuing your shield is a smart move as it uses powerful magic,but it follows a repeditive cycle.it splits itself into many incarnations,but when a copy appears next to the dancing one the dancer is the real one so focus on that instead of the others.using divine weapons deal more damage as it is a necromancer.(note:you aquire the rite of kindling and mask of the father after battle).

The most powerful boss so far that I have beaten is"THE GAPING DRAGON".extremely powerful,I was punching well above my own weight as I was only level29 and should have been level36.very predictable,hard to get away from and very big.it doesn't matter what kind of weapon or magic you use as you will only deal very light damage.wait for it to rear up and smash into the ground(be out of the way when this happens)and attack it from the side,just repeat this until it is dead.(note:you will get 30,000 souls after killing it)

Now I will give a hint on the kite dragon.walk under bridge and use arrows to attack it's wings

And when it lands on bridge use arrows to attack tail.there is a chance that it will lose it's balance after losing tail and fall into the valley below resulting in it's death.(note:you get 10,000 souls,and drake sword from tail.sword unleashes wind scar.

I am hoping to kill the"YAMATO NO OROCHI"soon,which is the seven headed water dragon at bottom of darkroot basin.but so far I have not gotten close enough to damage it as it fires large torrents of water at you.

Hope this helps.
