Best weapon for 4Kings?

I actually beat these guys single handed on SL72 (I'm so proud!) as the witch decided to stay upstairs and fire magic at some imaginary foes (go figure??)

I used a Iato lightening maxed out but I didn't think it a great weapon for them.

What have you used as a weapon? What kind of damage hurts them the most? I'm thinking of camping on the bridge to help out as a Sunbro.

I use the silver knight sword +5 with crystal magic weapon or greater magic weapon. If thats out of reach queelags furysword +5 is quite useful And beatrice will be firing magic at a ghost. its hiding above you

Sunlight Blade + Dagger

Isn't the SB a lightening buff too? I wasn't too impressed by the lightening impact my Iato had. I know the SB is more powerful so perhaps that's it.

I'm a FAI build so no magic weapons but I have a +2 Fury Sword.

What about DIVINE or OCCULT? DIVINE works on non-living I believe so perhaps that's a route. I have a maxed out OCCULT Clay.

Sunlight blade is fantasic for 4 kings i dont really use occult or divine so i dont really know how the do against them. Also if you need a shield to block the magic attacks use the crest shield from the undead asylum or the stone great shield. They block 80% magic damage. Forgot to mention the painting guardian sword. That thing is a boss killer

Just read this at http://darksouls.wikidot.com/dark-hand

Against the Four Kings, used as shield, even with its 80/80/80/80 defense, it surprisingly cancels their magical attacks including the unblockable one, it takes next to no stamina and does little damage to you. The Dark Hand is highly recommended for this fight.
