Titanite demon strategies?
Alright so I am in Lost Izalith trying to fight a titanite demon, but honestly this things hitboxes are cancer. The only good way I can see to fight this thing is with sorceries, but I don't have my inteligence up high enough to really use any decent ones. The only place I have been able to fight it close range is near it's missing right leg, but it's jump attack has decent tracking and I get screwed over there. Does anyone have a strategy for fighting this thing?

Pyromancies ;<

You already wrote the best strategies yourself... powerful spells or just stay close to his arm, when you see him jumping just roll at the right time and he won't get you... well as long as you don't dodge into him that is.

Dodge better... or just don't fight it.

Or I guess you can pelt him with arrows :resmile:

If you have a shield with decent stability like the Silver Knight Shield, you can block the jump attack.

Pyromancy is probably the best way to kill it relatively quickly irrespective of your stats (I'm assuming you're trying to get demon titanite).

Titanite Demons always feel a little broken to fight, easy to Die. And I think the Izilith One is the Strongest, don't ♥♥♥♥ with him, He'll Kill you.

the way i do it is to fast roll through his attacks and stick close to his left arm. get behind him there, wack him 2-3 times, and then run from his leap attack rinse and repeat. if you don't want to roll, you can get behind him in a similar manner by strafing around him with a good shield up.

but yeah, that particular titanite demon is pretty harsh. and he also respawns, lololol.

This way works with a low lvl, pyro or melee weapon too: wear a ring of fog, go close to him and hit him fast, only one or two times, run away.....wait a bit...repeat...win without any risk.

Relatively weak to fire, btw

If all else fails, just run past him. He shouldn't pursue you if you sprint the entire time.

I just stay underneath them (on their left side) so the spear can't reach me. Sometimes he'll jump-stab me from above and that's when I roll forward and keep going

If you have the faith, lightning bolts work wonders, and they have better range than pyro, so you only have to dodge the occational lightning bolt from it instead of having to worry about the occational jump attack with pyro.

Ill tell you how i kill my demons at meelee range
Basecly i get close to their leg (not the broken one) and stand as close as possible between the leg and the body ,from there is misses most meelee attacks.
When he jumps sometimes u can dodge it and sometimes u can't ,i haven't been to lost izalith much yet but its probably like the last titanite demons i killed on various places but moving back to the "when he jumps bit" if you got decent stamina u can hold his jump attack if you haven't got any stamina he will crush you soo in the case u got decent stamina try to hold the attack(or dodge) your choice and go back to let it fill up again.
If you haven't got stamina at all don't even try to hold it has it will suck your stamina like an ice cold drink during the summer and try to range it with spells and/or arrows.
If you still can't beat him join the chaos covenant (behind a wall below the quelaag bell) as they offer you a decent spell to use and try to lvl your inteligence a bit more for max dmg with it.(if you use pyromancies on a regular basis ofc)From the miracles point of view sorry i can't help as i am a pyro myself and don't use miracles much of the times.
Hope this Bible helps you and godspeed!:dsfight:
