Tips for sl1 Seath?

[Dicegeist]

I've recently started a sl1 run and it's been surprisingly not that bad up until now. Seath can usually 1 shot me with his tails and if he uses his huge aoe crystal explosion attack thingy I get 1 shot and cursed. Anybody have any tips for this ♥♥♥♥♥♥?

Cursebite ring, Havel's with Paladin set. That will negate the curse. A powerful weapon, cut his tail as he becomes staggered once destroying the crystal - that reduces the reach of his tail attack when behind him. Keep him at one side of the arena, and don't get cornered. When he uses the AoE spell, just run to the opposite end.

It would be easier if you were a sorcerer, for range.

Considering the run I can't really use sorcery, but I'll try doing it with havel's and the cursbite ring. Thanks for the info.

All you need for this battle is lots of resistance to curse.

If you die with 1 hit, either your build is wrong, sl is low or your equips lack upgrading.

Then it's normal to die with 1 hit.

Even with the best equips of the game, upgraded to the max, you'll easielly die.

You should avoid his attacks.

Yeah if you miss the tail cut when he breaks the crystal, the process of doing it becomes a massive pain in the ass. Basically just trigger an attack and try to run behind him and get a running attack in on the tail, and hope to god his tail wasnt swinging away from you. If you miss it, just get outta there since you'll get hit standing around. I think the difficult part about Seath's tail cut is that the sweetspot is the very tip of it, and he waves his tail around so much it becomes an exercise in frustration to catch it during the short window before he turns around or starts rampaging.

Far as fighting him, stay infront of him and he doesn't attack until you're up close to him, so just lure him to the center of the room, get close to trigger one of his breaths, go jab at his belly some since his breaths never hit down there, and run away when soon as his attack is done since he's starting up the nova next due to you being right under him. If you can keep him in the middle of the cave, you should have room left to be out of the range if you just run to the walls. The nova reaches its shortest towards the front of him I think.

Best way to get his tail, is CO-OP.

I already killed him on the first level, here are a couple tips:
Tip № 1: his crystal breath will kill you much, much faster than you have time to curse. Avoid it by any means.
Tip № 2 Sit vulnerable to fire, so the fire battle axe +10 works perfectly.
Tip №3: use the strongest pyromancy, which only you have. With Darkmoon Seance Ring, you will have 2 slots for spells, that is enough.
