Anyway to leave Anor Londo without killing O&S?

[frawding]

I'm doing a SL1 pyromancy run, but stupidly I thought I could kill both O&S with only Great Combustion and a Fireball, so now I'm stuck (I didn't buy Combustion as I didn't have enough souls at the time), as lighting Smough wont take damage from +10 pyromancy fireball, I don't have enough Great Combustions to kill him (I have 6 left after killing Orstein, and if I hit all 6 it still isn't enough) and I have a +0 Axe. The boss it self isn't difficult, I just cant physically kill them.

you want some help?

[frawding]

Sure, though will I be able to summon you? Since I'm SL1?

[Dialask]

You can go back to the entrance and the demons that carried you to Anor Londo will carry you back down to Sen's Fortress.

[Kwama57]

Gargoyles can fly you back to Sen's.

You can interact with the Bat Wing Demons who droped you in Anor Londo. They send you back to Sen Fortress

You could go all the way back to the start of Anor Londo Im pretty sure. I did a SL2 run once and I had like a longsword +15 with pyromancy, I got them with that but youll need to level to 2 for the longsword

It's not a big deal to run back. I am used to do it a few times every day with my low level chars.
There is an elevator cage you can use in Sens Fortress.
Can run very fast with almost no armor, Slumbering Dragon Ring and Ring of Fog.

Can't you go back to where the bat demons dropped you off and talk to the non-hostile demon there to return to Sen's Fortress?

Yeah, I'll probably go back. Summoning is kinda cheating on a challenge run, though it will be depressing having to run all the way back to blighttown and then all the way back to Anor Londo.

It's understandable not remember you can go back, as (as far as my current playthrough looks) there is no glowing circle where they drop you off. Just walking around until the "Talk" prompt pops up over seemingly nothing.

A big part of why it can be worth it to go back if you are having issue, is so you can get Andre to ascend stuff now that you have access to large shards no problem. Giant smith is great, but he can't bump weapons from +5 to +6.

"Aaaw yeah, time to get a lightning weapon and transform a soul into a cool-aw ♥♥♥♥ I don't have any weapons or shields past +5"

Remembering to use my few large shards (Crestfalen your prices are just too crazy for my blood) before Londo to bump some stuff to +6 ahead of time has made replays go a lot smoother.

Yeah I just finished running all the way back, boned to anor londo (I took the risk not sitting at a bonfire and it paid off!)
