I'm level 42 now and finally decided to try and take down the Stray Demon. By far the most difficult boss I had to face in my whole gaming career. I've died about 30 times in total so far without any hope of ever taking him down, lol.
Every time I start the encounter, he either one-hits me right after landing or kills me after I land my first attack chain. This boss is INSANE.


hes actually one of the easiest once you learn his pattern :P


when you spawn at the bonfire kill the 2 skeletons in the middle. then learn where the floor collapses and do a jump right at that spot. when you land turn to the right and hide behind the pillar (he wont attack you so you can heal)
always attack his back (technically his ass) and never stand near him when hes doing an attack

I've actually just managed to take him down right after writing that post, lol. I did it like you said: attack his back and try to stay away from his swing attacks. Before, I made the fatal mistake of trying to evade his AoE spell by running away from him, which always resulted in my instant death.
Please tell me that this was the most difficult boss in the game... xD

I haven't even set foot in Anor Londo yet^^ Still kind of stuck in Sen's Fortress. Those traps drive me crazy.

O&S isn't too hard once you learn their patterns too.
though they're probably the hardest in ng/ng+ after that, 4kings just get ridiculous amounts of hp lol and annoying.

You are very spread out.
You should choose to go single or hybrid
AKA str/faith or dex/faith or just dex with some pyromancy.
Don't be a pure caster if you want to pvp. :)
