Royal Rat Authority

[Richard]

Okk let me ask this one thing what do I get if i kill this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pice of ♥♥♥♥ the big rat is okk it the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lil ones when they get up on me? So I'm coming here is there any thing good if i kill him? Do I need to kill him?

[HoneyDrake]

not really, not sure if you get a gas which destroy armor, or the toxic one, but not worth it if you hate it, come back later

[Loreh]

I killed him just in my first playthrough :)

[Krystal]

stab in the liver....stab...in..the...liver

[Cerberus]

Yes you need to kill him. one hit him using chaos firestorm under his stomach. hilarious:)

[Vesorias]

You only need to kill him if you didn't kill the vanguard and want to join the Rat Covenant. he's completely unnecessary.

[Kelloggs]

Are you a faith build?

If you are... the fight becomes trivial, just cast Soul Appease. It will kill ALL the little rats in the room (and deal a nice damage to the boss as well).

They count as hollow creatures.

After this.... just make sure you stay under the Royal Rat Authority.

The other rat boss is easier but will 1 shot you if it gets close. It also only has 1-2k hp, so go to the other one.

Funny fact... Soul appease also makes this other fight pretty trivial as well. It will kill all the rats from the room, and damage Vanguard as well.

Those rats also count as hollow creatures.

Soul Appease = Overpowered lol

You don't, the boss is completely optional. And there's no item in the room he's protecting.

Just a little room with the rat king, for people that want to join his convenant.

If you decide to skip him, you'll lose nothing.


The boss fight at Grave of Saints (Rat Vanguard), however, does have items available after. Which are Pharos lockstone, Disc Chime and some other I forgot. So it might be worth it for you.

Oh, good point.

Actually, he DOES have a interesting soul to trade with Straid. If you're into Pyromancy, of course.

If you give Royal Rat Authority soul to straid, he'll teach you Toxic Mist. So that may be something to make you want to try the boss fight again.

As every one was saying up there to use Soul Appease I can use it? Can I use it right when I get in? Or do I need to be right next to them for it to take effect?

If you have 19 of faith, it's DEFINITELY a good idea.

The range of it is huge, but you'll have to aggro the toxic rats first.... Run towards them, as soon as they start running towards you, cast soul appease.

By the time you finish the cast, all of them will be within range.

[Noblesse Oblige]

well o killed it for its SoUlsihhhhhh lol

but really if you wanna kill it stay underneath it i found that not using lock-on was the easist method for me (Str/faith build)
