Dragonslayer armor tips`?
I have basically learned all his moves, but if i do ONE stupid mistake, i get annihalated, and often one-shotted. It seems that i almost have to beat him without being hit, unless i am massively underleveled or something

EDIT: beat him. I popped an ember, and thus never came even close to dying,.

what level are you?

How much Vigor do you have?
maybe you are? Also: heavier armor can mean the difference between a boss one-shotting you, and almost one-shotting you.

When you say armor i just think the armor pieces found after the nameless king boss.
The only tip i have for armour is that he is weak to frost attacks.

That's what I like!
Don't surrender, you can do it!
AFAIK you can somehow force him to fall off the bridge. Try it.

he's kinda like slamstein stage 2 in that regard, so here are some things I did to offset his high damage hits:
- equipping either a high stability shield or a high lightning absorption shield
- slotting my toolbar with yellow bugpellets
- (if you have the faith) sunlight oath miracle at the start to boost all your absorption and attack stats
- equipping a bow to kite and aggro him if you have summons (let them do all the work on his health, you use the high number of hits a bow produces to consistently steal his aggro)
- also being aware of the high fire damage that angels do
- keep mindful that dragonslayer armor has a tendency to put a slight delay in the middle of his combos to make you think its safe to heal...
- oh! also a lightning stoneplate ring to boost absorption (the right stat) or something that boosts lightning defense (the left stat)

that's what I pretty much kept in mind when I got to the point where I could consistently beat him

Best i would say is: Look at how he moves and respond accordingly to what he does. Also look out for black mandragons shooting fire at ya.

just circle strafe right the shield bash, dodge the rest, go for 1-2 pokes only between attacks and use the fountain thing to block him if you have to heal. You are not under level. Just right actually.

Npc's are hardly of any use in the later bosses.
all they are really good for is being meat shields and taking aggro away from you so that you can chug a magical gatorade.

Eh...it was a fairly tolerable fight for me. I mean, don't get me wrong...I managed to get killed many times, but the pacing leaves a lot of leeway for me (had some downtime to heal and regain stamina). Pretty much the only tips I can offer is to dodge his attacks (twice for good measure unless you're good at reading his attacks) and when he does his one-shot two handed style, simply block it...sometimes he'll do a complete circle around me and I get a free swing on him, but most of the time I just take a small hit in health or a knockdown, but you'll survive.
