    What is a round? How many seconds/minutes?

    It is easier if you mindlessly run towards the archer on the right, and when you make it to the top, block his arrow while facing away from the wall, that way, you'll be knocked back against the wall, then you can proceed to attack and figh him like a regular sword knight
    e

    That sounds interesting! Because I always fall off the step and die trying to block the arrow.

    By the way: My best way dealing with this archers is to hide my body by the spell "hidden body" Very easy! You neet at least 15 in intelligence for that spell I think.

    Meh, just sprint up then roll to dodge the arrows - tis' the easiest trick. Bare in mind I understood rolls had I-Frames much like in DeS so I was a lot more confident in this game.

    Hmm, I want to say it only takes 1 round (3 poison arrows a piece) in NG. It's been a while since I poisoned them, but I know there is safe spot right next to the railing of the tower connected by the bridges. I can never block the arrows without falling, I always have to roll through them to make the non-arrow run.

    A "round" is from the start of poisoning to when it wears off. I don't know how long it lasts.

    But, it is fairly easy to do as suggested above. Run to the top, go to the right, roll under the arrows, get in face to face with the archer, and parry his arse.

    i always trade for a dragonslayer greatbow and 5 arrows before i get to anor londo, even if i cant wield the bow properly, the knockback/down effect still counts.
    1 arrow for the archer to the left, and 3 arrows on the other. fast and 100% safe.

    Just to pile in one more “how to”...
    If your pressure parry timing is not too good.(Im horrible at parrying under pressure)

    If you are a heavy weapon user, double hand it, then try and rush the archer on the right and stun lock him. Makes it pretty easy if you can dodge that one or two point blank arrows.

    Seems like fire claymore works good at first play through.

    You could also do what I used to do (before I learned how to kill them). I would summon someone and let them take care of the archers.
