I cant hel pyou but I dont know where you heard that. Its not easier in NG+ if you kill super ornstein first. What I believe that means is that if you want to get both armour stets and weapons by NG+ you should do super ornstein in NG, as Super smough is easier for NG+. So its up to you whether you want both armour sets or whether you just want to beat them.

I dont get where this idea of super ornstien being tougher comes from. you can roll between his legs and he will sit and be completely ineffective for most of the time just get some kind of poking weapon and watch him swing at air the whole time. (excluding the jump. gota watch that)
the hard part of that fight is when they are both up.

Whenever I got underneath him he straigh away did the butt slam. Smough is just easier cause of the pillars.

thanks insane for your offer. i just loaded the game up and low and behold on my third attempt i was successfull. by the time i nailed smough i had only 1 estus flask remaining, doomed me i thought but surprisingly ornstein`s spear attack missed an epic amount of times. i really was very lucky.
most youtube videos i have seen show that after the boss fight you go up an elevator and there is an armour set present. for me this armour did not show. do you guys have any idea why?

ah, you have to use the orb first!! i think i`ll go get the dragon bow first to snipe them. problem is i cant buy arrows from the giant blacksmith as my wife moved my controller when i was out of the room and somehow managed to damage him. back to the darkroot gardens for me to farm souls to absolve my sins. SL 97, should only take me a month pmsl.

At SL97 your absolution cost is below 50k, that's 10 minutes of Phalanx farming at best.PAULINE F wrote:ah, you have to use the orb first!! i think i`ll go get the dragon bow first to snipe them. problem is i cant buy arrows from the giant blacksmith as my wife moved my controller when i was out of the room and somehow managed to damage him. back to the darkroot gardens for me to farm souls to absolve my sins.
