There is a way to get the same Boss Soul in the first playthrough?

[Zephyros]

Just got the Soul of the Blood of the Wolf and can't decide what weapon I get

What do you liked the most, Wolf Knight's Greatsword or Farron Greatsword?

Is there a way to fight the same boss in the same playthrough like Dark Souls 2?

[淵 Oriko Fujido]

No.

[ImaGuest]

Nope. You gotta choose. If you want both weapons, you gotta play the game again in NG+. Thats how it's always been in Dark Souls. I personally prefer the Wolf Knight's Greatsword because it is basically Knight Artorias' sword and he was my second favorite boss from the original Dks.

^ not true, Dark Souls 2 I could have all boss weapons in the first playthrough if I kindle the bonfires.

[Shadowskyt]

NG+ is the answer.

Personally, I like the one that costs no FP.
Great for PvP
Not so for PvE

Then again, maybe I should just Git Gud.

That also changes the area to NG+ though.

[Zephyros]

Wait no FP cost for that crazy jumps? Oh boy... everyone will use it...

Dark souls 1, yes, but in Dark Souls 2 there was an item called bonfire ascetics that you could use at the bonfires to push a select area into NG+ mode and respawn the boss with NG+ rewards, including another boss soul, on the first playthrough.

Unfotrunately, it appears the only way to get a second boss soul in Dark Souls 3 is to start a second playthough in NG+

Which puts that area in New Game +. As is explained by the warning given by the item.

[Zephyros]

I don't have a problem with a area be NG+ in the first playthrough. I liked that aspect of DS2.

Oooh, I completely forgot about the ascetics. I never really used them to acquire the second boss weapons, should've done so! Thanks for the info, been a while since I last played Dks 2

Or you can just beat it again in another world, that means in your friend's world co-op

A completely useless addition to the game in dark souls 3.

Nothing new.
