This guy is a pushover
Welcome back to another Demon’s Souls Remake boss guide. In this guide, we’ll explain how to take down the Tower Knight, the boss of 1-2. Don’t worry; he’s not as bad as he looks.
The Tower Knight, when you first encounter it, may seem like an impossible task, but in reality, he’s just a big pushover. When this fight starts, you’ll want to run to the far left or right and make you way up to the top. Surrounding the perimeter of the area where the boss fight takes place are several archers that you’ll want to dispatch. Because not to knock them off the ledges, as you’ll have to contend with both the archers and the boss on the lower level. There are eight archers in total, with four on each side. Once you’ve dispatched the archers, or knocked them off, it’s time to fight the boss.
Again, before you fight the boss, be sure to take down any archers that you may have knocked from the top level first. Or they’ll just attack you while you’re engaged with the boss.
Dealing with the Tower Knight
The Tower Knight isn’t defenseless as he has several damaging attacks. He has a wide area of attack with this lance, which covers the front of him. When you see this cover be sure to dodge under it or sidestep around the boss. He will also throw down his shield and do stomp attacks which can one-shot you if you’re low on health If you’re at a distance, he’ll start to toss magic at you, which is easily available.
This fight is similar for both melee and ranged classes, as you’ll need to target the Tower Knight’s feet in order to bring him down. Get behind the boss and start wacking at its feet. You’ll know you’re doing damage as a blue mist will start to flow from his feet and ankles. A couple of well-placed strikes will eventually knock him off his feet and knocking him to the ground. At that point, you’ll want to focus on hitting him on his head, as that is his weak point. If you’re strong enough, this will only take one attempt. Otherwise, you’ll need to bring him down again by attacking his feet.
Take your rewards
Once you’ve downed the boss, you’ll be rewarded with the Iron Demon Soul and 8, 750 souls.
