  • "Snipers?" What is this guy playing? Is he going to call in a fucking Osprey Gunner?

  • he has a giant blind spot in his crotch and all his attacks are blockable if you just facefuck his crotch the entire time

  • Comment removed

  • I killed the Demon....then got fired to death by that dragon! why isn't there more bonfires!!!

  • @rubberchimp99 because after killing the taurus demon you get a ladder that leads back to the last bonfire

  • @rubberchimp99 because that would make the game too easy.

  • Or, or, listen me, before entering the area and climbing the full set of stairs, go back, pick up the Gold Pine Resin and the Black Firebombs, go back, kill the archers, add the resin to your weapon, draw him, climb the stairs, do a plunging attack and it takes 2/3 of his life. Then, just hit hm with Black Firebomb and hes done :)

  • @MrTitanosaurus Super easy using your tactic bro, except I just kept on going back up the ladder and doing jump attack, 3 Times with resin and once without it took at level 13 with 11 str as a sorcerer, cheers!

  • Or just summon 2 guys

  • Good luck with the rest of De...Dark Souls.

  • IGN. Let me tell you this as a Dark Souls player who had never played Demon's Souls prior thus making this game more difficult.....you such ass at this and have no right giving tips on one of the easiest god damn bosses in the game. How about giving tips on bosses that actually are challenging and stop showing old glitches and exploits (that have been patched for christ sake) and actually give useful information? I half expected you having a guide for Pinwheel. I'm sure he kicked your noob ass.

  • I pushed him off the wall on the first try.

  • I CANT KILL THIS FUCKING THING!!

  • @Ryeer962 Then try harder or stop playing. This is the easiest boss in the game.

  • @YourHomeWorkAteMyDog i dont have this game .. yet! my friend as on my account without knowing! but it seems easy if you have knowledge of hat you are doing!

  • Seriously they needed a guide for this? He was the easiest boss on the game, lol. I beat him jumping off that tower by slashing him like 3 times.

  • Taurus, i was fight with him.. i hit him 2 times and he just fall down :) .

  • I defeated this guy in under a minute (Probably down to luck). As soon as I saw the Demon appear, I immediately ran back to the tower and climbed. I then dropped and stabbed him. I then ran to the other end of the bridge whilst he chased me. I ran into the space between the wall and stairs on the right hand side. Then; I ran back following the wall, but as I was close to him, he jumped backwards and fell off the edge and died. It might be luck, but I hope this trick might help everyone out.

  • @CauzerKid lol...its funny because that what I exactly did...

  • i cant beat this demon(

  • First time with this guy! i saw him shat myself, ran and climbed onto the tower. he jumped up...

  • I just pushed him off the bridge with 3 strikes no hits taken :)

  • Don't stay at the top of the tower for too long... He can jump on top of it. Discovered it the hard way x_x

  • How to defeat the demon

    Step 1: Stand near the ledge

    Step 2: Wait for the demon's leaping attack

    Step 3: Profit

  • @jinsi he pulled we off the ledge, thanks now i have to do again.

  • 2:30 he was so fucking lucky the demon missed him

  • @MeesterSquishy the demon cant hit you when you climbing the ladder. only if you really close to the ground and not climbing

  • YOU DEFEATED

  • i beat the game but my friend wants to know how to beat the game

  • I FUCKING KILLED IT YEAH!!!!!!! ohh woah a dfragon cool.................. FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UU

  • @pivot1022 Exactly what happened to me. X_X

  • @pivot1022 eexactly.. i want a firethingy RIGHT AFTER THIS BOSS>_>

  • Holy shit I did not think about that dive attack thing. Wow it takes like half his health so it should be tonnes easy

  • im lvl 22 and i still egt owned with 2 hits lol

  • I have tried to kill this thing about 20 times now and would always get him to like a half a bar of health and die. This is really starting to annoy me now. Any suggestions? I have tried this guy's way, and just running up to it and smashing it with a 2H.

  • that jump attack is cheap, i just ran with my axe and chopped the big fuck :P

  • haters gonna hate...

  • Ok if you dont want to be a coward or a douch like this guy, you just walk up to the boss get right in his face 2hand your weapon and get slashed in while either roll dodging his attaks or simple walking inbetween its legs the moment it attacks. using pyromancy sorceries and or miracles makes any fight not only easy but takes all the fun away off playing this game. also my advise for anyone looking for a GOOD guide. check Epicnamebro´s playthrough. it shows you how to play like a boss! xD

  • This was the only boss I beat on my first try. Those soul arrows do some major damage in between the drop attacks.

  • this is not a guide...its just a video of you getting lucky...

  • imminent bad player

  • What a fucking terrible tutorial. He barely uses any form of strategy.

  • "Or also known as the big guy on the bridge"

    . . . Not really. . .

  • Here's some better advice for you people. Kill the archers, run back once you spawn the boss, climb up and use a item you get from a chest on your way toward the boss through the Undead Burg (it electrifies your weapon) climb the ladder and use that item real quick, set it in the same slot as your flask and then drop attack him with your weapon and then run to the other side of the bridge and run back and repeat the process.

  • how the fuck does the poster survive those hits? even after grinding a bit i still get 1 hit ko'd by him. is there some other area i should have been to before trying on the taurus?

  • @lachohimself i'm wondering the same thing!

  • @lachohimself i stacked abit of endurance for him

  • @lachohimself

    low endurance maybe? i am using sorc and i survived getting hit by him. getting trampled afterwards is a different story...

  • @lachohimself you get 1 hit ko'd because your playing dark souls

  • @lachohimself I don't know if it'll work for you, but I accidentally found a glitch - I lured him to the entrance point, stood between his legs and hacked away - for some reason, he took the hits 3/4 the way down his health bar, then I ran away to the other side of the bridge and used black fire bombs to finish him.

  • @lachohimself no but if you had that problem so did i so if you take like 20 fire bombs you can drop down on him once and then just hit him with firebombs

  • @lachohimself Having a good armor can help. Atleast i think that 13-14 Vitality is necessary to survive 2 hits. But i'm not sure.

  • he hit me off the edge and the jump off after me and counted as a kill, how lucky right

  • how did he get fire balls?

  • @xcorejimx start as pyro

  • what armour is he using?

  • @hawk0050984 horrible armour

  • @hawk0050984 Hes using the trash he got from the undeads in the area. also for anyone who would like to do this boss like a boss simple watch his move pattern and everytime he makes a move you simple dodge backwards run towards the boss get a few swings in and take some distance again. pyromancy and spells make this game way to easy. especialy with the new patch. up close and personal is the only way to roll! :D

  • Much easier to duck and weave. Three jump attacks do it easy. Wait until he recovers, and go through his legs.

  • When I climbed the ladder the second time, when you threw fire at him, and it just stood and looked at you, i tried it and the fucking thing jumped up onto the tower and fucked me up

  • all you rilly need to do is just buy about 20 fire bombs from the undead merchant (male) neer the bonfire in the undead burg,on the right side from were you exit the bonfire area, theirs 3 armored zombies and 1 armored zombie crossbow man. then their will be a walkway with 2 undead soldirs (spear) and left of were you start the fight agenst them is a line of crates about 2 wide. just roll into them and go straight after you hit the bottom of the stairs, and the merchent is their. then just spam

  • and then you have to fight 6 in a row later on in the game

  • in mah first try i was climbing the ladder and he fell off the bridge

    i was like WTF

  • Lol I like how he has 666 souls in the very beginning before he recovers

  • If u have played this game before and come to the part after Quelaag this boss is a breeze when u replay it :P I fended of 4 or 5 of these at once since I maniacly ran into those whom are standing where u fight the Ceaseless Discharge x)

  • Awesome! Many thanks.

  • You know, I just tried this and fail at hitting the freaking bull, but then when I turned back hoping to get butt raped, I find the taurus to be stuck by the stairs lol. He got butt raped instead xD

  • Thank you so much

  • Ofc its all about your perception of the game:

    1. Do you want the boss defeated?

    or

    2. Do you want to say you were better than the boss?

    Nevertheless this tactic works ;) no offense intended

  • This is 1 way, I personally think its a boring method and shows no skill.

    Why carry a shield if you dont use it? You're slower and do less dmg.

    All of his attacks are dodgeable and blockable, stand in his ass wait for an attack and try to dodge > hit > hit > repeat. If you fail 2 dodges block his next 2 attacks and use 2 pots right after and start over again. if you want to do it the safe/slow way, block all his attacks and counter it. You'll be a lot more satisfied after you defeat him.

  • What do you mean just "jump off the ledge" with the battleaxe equipped. You can't jump in this game . What a shit guide. You need to explain things.

  • @ChainsawVsGod You can jump.......

  • @Reviize9

    Don't do the ... thing as if I'm some sort of retard. It isn't exactly explained in the game is it. Fucking dick.

  • @ChainsawVsGod I am just saying you can jump in this game, No need to get all hostile

  • @ChainsawVsGod hey dipshit play the game b4 u troll retard you can jump

  • lol i needed help with this lol

  • My guy is stuck walking..I can't figure out how to fix it. I've spent like half an hour looking for some fucking idea on how to fix it and I went back to this video since I remember seeing some guy a few pages back in comments saying his guy just walks around all the time.

  • When doing the jump strategy, try to lead him across a bit more than half the bridge before you start running toward the tower. If he's too close to the ladder while you're making a break for it he can hit you with the club while you're climbing.

  • he jumped off the ledge for me

  • I killed this guy alot quicker than described in this video. By killing the archers, running across the bridge, running back, climbing the ladder and hitting him the same way he did it. only i didnt run to the other end of the fecking bridge, which is just a waste of estus flasks :P lol i dove through him and climbed the ladder immediatly after the first hit :). good guide though, he did kill him after all that's what counts lol

  • @gamercfc are you irish?

  • @sadnairepsn Scottish...

  • @gamercfc irish.. i thought when i heard you say feck but..

    lol

  • @sadnairepsn I currently live in Ireland, been here since 2004, if that helps.

  • Wow, 46 dislikes? Why all the hate?

  • i have fucking tried to kill this guy in this same way like 30 times I cannot get it done.

  • omg i keep seeing everyone with that axe. where the hell do you get it ?!

  • @ed1rko17 I think it's just a battleaxe, killing some scrubs in the undead burg will get you one

  • @ed1rko17 several enemies drop that its not strong for strong look up the "drake sword" it has 200 damage and its a little bit after the taurus demon get atleast 35 arrows lvl up your dexterity to 12 shoot the red dragon on his tail spike under the bridge where he breathes fire.

  • @ed1rko17 also later on its not the best weapon anymore since your strength will be stuck at 200 which is what its attack number is my other weapons strength go u7p to 370 though the atk number isnt also make elemental weapons when you have the chance whenever you meet the fire blacksmith make a fire greatsword its really good and make a divine weapon too.

  • The plunging attack is great, but if you find yourself stuck on the ground, just roll between his legs. Don't try going around him. Just stay right beneath him and keep rolling between his legs, then attacking once he's left himself open.

  • i just went for a plunging attack

    then i stayed in the doorway pelting him with firebombs

  • You can keep climbing back up and dropping down for an easy and cheap win as well. Try holding your weapon two handed to make things go faster.

  • ignore the second part of the vid, simply run under his legs and repeat jump strategy on his head

  • i stayed up close and personal and tuck and roll under his legs when he striked.. also had a easy quick kill by pushing him off the bridge

  • WHY THE FU(& Can't I plunge?! ITS WITH THE FRIGGING RB BUTTON, ISNT IT?!

    My faggot just falls down, next to him without attacking him.

  • @Rickokun the same happened with me but i did it ine on the asulym demon

  • @swampthing2345 Ah okay. Well I got past it now. Except now I'm stuck at the friggin' dragon at the bridge.

    Thing is that I actually got past the dragon my first try, I died though.

    I just can't seem to get past the dragon for the second time. He doesnt kill the enemies on the bridge and I get instantly killed when approaching the middle of the bridge because of its firebreath

  • Comment removed

  • @Rickokun Run along the right side of the bridge and you will see some stairs that go down. Go down those stairs and continue through the doorway ahead of you. Don't run though because this doorway leads to the room with the bonfire and the stairs that goes down is broken. Kick the ladder to your left to create a nice shortcut.

    And make sure to get the Drake Sword from the red dragon by shooting about 30 arrows in his tail.

  • @JokkeBorge Thanks a lot mate, that helped a lot :D (except I went to the left first, to evade the spearmen who are on the right of the bridge)

  • @Rickokun Anytime ;)

  • I didn't have any fire attacks so I just did the plunging attack 3 times or so. (Just here to see how others did it)

  • @Syzygy2048 I did the same thing you did, I thought it was only way considering how little slash damage I do with my Knight, took me 2 tries, though.

  • I don't see anyone mentioning the method I used on him:

    Between his legs and stay there while hitting him, most, if not all, of his attacks will miss you

  • Just a hint for everybody. The taurus demon can jump up to the top of the ladder. Found it out yesterday. So DO NOT wait to long at the ledge at the top of the ladder.

  • he just fell off the bridge when he did that HUGE back step while I was running for my life. :)

  • @G4wacther Hahaha lucky you! I jumped off the tower at him once just as he swung and he batted me off the battlements like a baseball xD

  • @CyberYeoo literally just had this happen to me now so ive give up and im looking for guides!:P

  • @SoloWingpixy91 Haha, my problem is the walk and fight from the campfire back to the Taurus Demon, I always end up using a few flasks on the way xD

  • FUCK... IGN are SO bad at games its hard to watch sometimes.

  • @410MaXiMuS Then why the fuck are you watching this video? you obviously weren't able to kill this guy on your own so you had to watch a guide.

  • @chikawowow123 actually i go back to others videos to see how others ( right now i just bea the four kings which is way later from here like lvl 102) did it lol so yes theres a chance he beat it on his own its not impossible lol

  • @sonicadx I still don't understand why he thinks IGN are SO bad at games. i mean, the guy in the video beat the boss with no problems, and there seems to be a lot of people watching these taurus demon tutorials.

  • not gonna lie, being a sorc/mage helped big time on this boss, never got touched and wrecked him easily lol. All I did was blast him to hell with soul arrows and backed up/rolled out when needed.

  • i think taurus after the patch hunts and in the rooftoop you cant escape..

  • I rolled between his legs to get back to the ladder right after I jumped off him. Btw, how do I play online?

  • This game is a LOT harder than Demons souls. For one the camera doesn't co-operate if you don't have a lock on on enemy. You tend to get hit on the back 90% of the time. The firebomb enemies keep pestering you and the other baddies gang up on you. This is right at the beginning of the game. The huge skeletal warriors are a bitch to kill along with pretty much anyone else. One or two hits and they rape you. I've been repeating the area before Taurus demon almost 6 hours now and I was good in DS.

  • demo-dark souls.

    

  • My easy way is bombs, lots of bombs

  • I beat him without jumping off the tower, tbh I didn't even think about it lol

  • When you back him up away from the ladder and where you can drop on him, just go running past him on the side that's more open. He can't really hit you when you pass by that close and then you can set up another instance where you drop down on his head to deal massive damage.

  • where did u get firball??

  • So many bad players here..

  • Comment removed

  • @TheZemalf You must be fucking blind. There's a fucking bonfire right after you encounter the dragon for the first time. You dumb bastard.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @TheZemalf Sounds like you mad, with all your removed comments.

  • @bzeljn A bit yes, with every "answer" being an insult topped with name calling, what's the point? I was naive to expect to get intelligent comments on YouTube. (As for the matter itself:) My controller ran out of battery and the game did not pause or throw me out of the game, like it does when network disconnects (which is why I just play on offline mode). Lost bunch of souls, no biggie.

  • @TheZemalf Trust me, I might be unintelligent but god knows that there are at least a million people more retarded than I am. This game is a hardass motherfucker, I was chilling outside Capra demon hoping to get summoned and some prick invades my world and kills me in two hits.

  • @bzeljn i start a party chat before i play DS for that one reason lol! ive only been playing 6 hours and it hasnt happened to me, but im afraid of it happening lol

  • @TheZemalf

    That's not bad design, it's for online play.

    You don't want to be doing co-op and then the host just decides to pause until he's ready.

    Like it always is in Demon's/Dark Souls, it's your fault and it always will be.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheZemalf It's online play you numpty, there is no pause in any online sessions in any game. You'd have to pause the game for everyone playing.

  • I've been playing the game since launch, I've logged 40+ Hrs and still haven't managed to kill this guy. I love the game, but it's seriously hard and to be honest I am starting to get a little bored.

  • And how do you roll?

  • How can you plunge? what are the controllers

    

  • @OmegaReborn32 RB or R1. hope that helped.

    How did he get those fireballs? and whats that hand thing he has?

  • @Mattwi u get those fireballs early when u are a pyromancer and he has an axe

  • Wow, these IGN guides suck big-time... Mostly because the player sucks at the game, and secondly, because he's using magic in every single one...

  • completely agree

  • how do u jump of and hit him ???

  • For those who don't know: Hold O to slide down ladder

  • Me and my friend killed it with 12 or so firebombs. I climbed up the ladder and and killed the skeletons and then lured the demon. I climbed the ladder again whilst locking on to him. Then I hit him with 2 firebombs and as he jumps up you should jump down. Climb up the ladder while he jumps down and repeat. Really easy way to beat him for all classes.

  • LMAO at all these failures crying about the game difficulty. Why not learn how to not die and play properly and stop being scrub, shit gamers.

  • @mechahalcon completely agree

  • Fuck this stupid ass game. too fucking hard.

  • LOL I just fought against this boss and he KILLED HIMSELF BY JUMPING FROM THE BRIDGE HAHAHAHA.

    After 5 tries. So ironic.

  • @EmoScars17 Not really ironic.

  • does this guy even know that he can block the demons attack

  • @Ruincc How do i block him?

  • There is a fucking ladder?!?!

  • what level where u when u beat this demon??

  • I actually punched myself in the face as a result of fighting this guy

  • JUST BEAT THIS DUMB THING (7 edits for prophanity) SCREW U MINOTAUR

  • Pyromancer is my fav class atm

  • finally killed him :P... had a shitty sword so i used the gold pine something like that which gets my sword lighting.. got to kill him in 2 hits :P

  • @KnightOfSka you just saved me hours of frustrating retrys, thank you

  • @MyLilPwny43 xd np i think :P

  • This is the most useless guide...ever...So what about all the other classes that don't have magic?

  • K I've been looking everywhere how do you do a plunge attack. I've tried falling off and hitting both the right trigger and right bumper but it doesn't work. Someone please help

  • @wehadagoodlife Usually I try to target the enemy before I do the plunge attack...

  • @7thSingularity No i figured it out i was just pressing the right bumper too early, and targeting the enemy has nothing to do with it but good try

  • i just killed the ones up in the tower, then just fought melee on the bridge, i used all my estus flasks but kill it first try

  • There is another way easiest than this:

    Climb up the ladder, throw flame bombs on it, when it jump up, go down the ladder, so it will jump down, and you, go up, throw more bombs on it, and after throw 11 or 12 bombs, at the cost of 550 or 600 souls, and without suffer any damage, you can kill this Donkey, err, Taurus Demon, naked and unarmed if you want.

  • I'm from Brazil, and this is the "Brazilian Way" to kill this easy demon. hehehehehe

  • sooo do you just sorta make this up as you go along or.....

  • When I calm down, I'll try this again... lol

  • wtf i dont have fire..fuck this

  • So I was getting up close and personal with him, swinging my sword at his legs/back, when he suddenly he jumped backwards and off the bridge....
