    So there we are, Yukon and myself after having him help me fix a stupd mistake that I had made, and I ask him if he thinks we can kill the Drake in the Burg hand to hand like real men.

    So he says to me "We can try"

    And I says "Onwards monster hunters!"

    So we get to the bridge and he triggers the Drake to kill all of the Bridge guards. And we take postions on the opposite sides of the bridge in the alcoves by the stairs.

    I says "Photo OP" - so I get my camera and snap a few pics.

    Here they are

    Drake Hunting 00111]Drake Hunting 00111[/url]

    ]Drake Hunting 00310[/url]

    Drake Hunting 00413]Drake Hunting 00413[/url]

    Later after trying to tease the Drake out of hiding I ask Yukon to go and stand beside it.

    Seconds later with no fear I race out on to the bridge and get three quarters of the way across when all of a sudden my screen is lit up with fire. We both die.

    I get a message from Yukon- "But he'll kill me"- Ah the irony.

    And seconds after respawning the funniest thing I'd ever heard in Dark Souls....

    "Tricksy Drake".

    Lol.

    So we go back and try again/.....

    If you think that was cool give us about 15 minutes and we will regale you with our glorious tale of victory over the ever dreaded bridge drake.

    Make that half an hour. He seems to be taking a tea break with the hollow archer.

    I only have a laptop, so I don't think I can hook up my keyboard, though I've never tried. I used to have a usb keyboard but I think I threw it out when I moved half way across Canada haha.

    Man, that thing is such a pain to fight. I find using Great Magic Shield, gold pine resin, Great magic barrier basically make you immune to the dragons flames, but even then, hes such a pain to kill cause he never stands still.

    Can i ask how you summoned a helper there? Which boss needs to be intact to take on the drake with a buddy? Or (please sir) does the drake count as a boss?

    I got to the altar on this play through by sprinting and leaping. Got very lucky and mr dragon flew off. He's back now but in my other playthrough he never returned. sad

    the trick with the red dragon is you have to push yourself up against the wall as much as possible by the stairs, its kinda hard to explain without visuals. if your facing it, you have to stand in one of the corners where you are safe and just raise your shield and just keep walking into the wall and it will eventually jump and land right where the stairs are and you can get a few attacks in. rinse and repeat.

    sry like i said hard to explain without visuals.

    We did try that fruit, and I did the exact thing we were doing in Virals world in my own and my dragon complied and hopped down to see me and we duked it out one on one.

    For some reason Virals drake was just not aggroing like usual, we were both pretty confused, I was actually close enough to lock onto him with my arrow the 2nd round we tried to take him out, I stood there and pointed at him while the camera was off me.

    @Eolan: you need to leave the bell gargoyles alive to do this, the fog gates close you off anywhere else. Once you have kicked down the ladder leading to burg fireplace you can climb up it to be directly under his bridge and and from there you can summon.

    If you try to go get him by running through the sun altar bonfire he flies away and you won't be able to get him back until you reload your game, so you will have to resummon.

    The only way I managed to kill this s.o.b. was with the Dragonslayer Greatbow. Just stood under the arch at the Taurus Demon end. Made him fly down then kept shooting him. Each time he turned to fly back I shot him again to keep him interested. I'm going to try melee on my new character though.

    Slake, from my experience going one on one with him, the trick is to lop off his tail within the first two-three hits.(you can do that with a base weapon with lightning resin, but you need a higher level weapon to finish him off.. I think.) This will stun him and cause him to moan a bit while you widdle down his health with a few more hits.

    If you don't manage to slice off his tail he starts doing a flame charge all across the bridge and you will probably have to retreat to the stairs to make him stop.

    A real challenge, take the drake down with cestus: like REAL MEN.
    This should be a covenant, low level people place their signs and when summoned go to slay the drake in the parish, only requirement is a hairy chest.
