The heavy attack has a total of 120 poise damage I believe, because there are multiple instances in the attack where it deals poise damage

Technically Pinwheel is a necromancer, not a pyromancer

​@@TheHimbeerjoghurtPyromancy is the casting and manipulation of fire. Necromancy does not include casting fire. Therefore, what Pinwheel is casting is either pyromancy or ( very unlikely) fire sorcery.

>shows up >kills Pinwheel >refuses to elaborate

​@@elock1277 Not necessarily, I guess He's talking about the fact that in DS you can pretty much go anywhere from the start of the game. So with that fact in mind, Pinwheel would be one of the fist bosses you fight if you choose the catacombs at the start (but nobady would do that anymore because you would get stuck with the skelletons and then you would consult a guide). After that is tomb of the giants, and then the golden fog gate would tell the player "fuck off and get the lordvessel" so they get back on track for the bells.

@@elock1277 it supposed the play should down to the catacombs before or after kill the ares demon because when you come back in that time to the firelink sanctuary is when come the partners of petrus a talks about go down and another characters talks about that place.

I probably would've stuck with the plan of doing catacombs first if a holy weapon was an easier thing to get at the start. Since it's not it kinda makes it a temporary no-go area (at least for a player like me who doesn't like to run past things that could sneak up on her later, preferring to wipe stuff out as I go). So yeah the boss difficulty level seems misjudged with the completion method availability for the area. One's tuned to early-game, the other's tuned to early-mid.

@@Torthrodhel thought the same, it's pretty obvious once you enter the catacombs you're not supposed to be there, kinda like when you get to the ghosts in the flooded area. They should have put a holy weapon at the end of the graveyard and put the zweihander somewhere else. Honestly I think the area is easier than the typical beginning route, it's just that the skeletons become overwhelming early game because it takes so long to kill them.

The Catacombs are roughly stat lined to be in league with the Depths, and the first part of Darkroot. Which makes sense as you get the Divine Ember after Moonlight Butterfly. Presumably the "Intended" path is to either hit them before going down to Blightown or after coming back up from it seeing as you meet Rhea and get the Rite of Kindling hinted to you after beating Capra Demon if you don't head straight down.

It looks like he actually uses a scimitar as a secondary weapon. You can see him switch later on in his fight.

look, even master sorcerers have to have their fun. if you were to go up against someone who is like you, but worse in every possible way, and also you can resurrect indefinitely, wouldn't you want to have some fun with it?

@@crestfallenwarrior5719 ah, I'm sorry sir... I tried to spare you so many times, even avoiding you and that smelly snake in the hopes that you'd just linger at the shrine a bit longer. I miss your cynicism old friend.

There's a bit more environmental storytelling to Petrus. That talisman he's using? It doesn't scale with faith, so it's usually used by people who don't have much of it. Also, you find a regular talisman and morning star down the elevator shaft. I think the leading theory is that Petrus killed the real elite cleric, took his clothes, and shoved his body down the shaft.

@@grfrjiglstan DAMN! That second half of your comment is gruesome! But it lowkey makes sense. If Rhea, Vince and Nico did _not_ depart for Lordran together with Petrus and were instead meant to redenvouz with an Elite Cleric Knight, then this theory has a lot of credence to it! Maybe Petrus was also originally from Thorolund, but not a Cleric at all and he somehow managed to assassinate the Elite Cleric Knight that was supposed to meet up with Rhea's party. Personally, I still like to think he is a corrupt Cleric from the beginning, since I think that gives more layers of complexity to the entire Way of White church. While there would be honest souls trully blindly believing in their faith, there would also be those in power who'd secretly use their authority for their own ends. That's a nice theme that I think fits well within this universe, considering how Dark Souls in general is heavily inspired by Berserk. (where many supposedly "righteous" authorities were in fact rotten to the core) But I will admit that this theory you presented is very cool too! In fact, if I were to discard my personal preference, this would easily be my second pick right off the bat! I wouldn't know how to explain the Talisman and Morning Star hidden away in that chest otherwise! (though that could've also belonged to a prieviously failed Thorolund Cleric, who also embarked on an ill-fated quest for the Catacombs)

Personally don't buy the "murder-and-replace" theory for Petrus, there's no real reason for the imposter to act as Petrus, it's not lucrative or anything like Licia in Dark Souls 2, and he DOES know miracles. (Also if From wanted to push that narrative, I think they'd have a thief's set in one of the chests or a skeleton among the chests) Pretty sure he's just a corrupt 'cleric' who found himself cursed and sent out on a death sentence of a pilgrimage, and suddenly all his connections didn't matter any more once he had the Darksign. The loot seems more like just backup supplies, things he's hoarded or brought along with him to Anor Londo. The red orbs showing he's not above pillaging Humanity to keep himself away from Hollowing, after all there's little else keeping him from Hollowing any more...

@@Snickersnek _Hmmm, true._ All of your arguments are very much valid. :\ I still do like the "fake Cleric" concept as a side theory, but for the most part, I agree that the "corrupt Cleric" makes far more sense in light of what you've said. It's also the one I personally hold as my favourite.

please keep talking. I’m loving all the theroies

Sort of makes sense, as she was designed to be the NPC summon help for Quelaag, who vomits fire on the regular. It's how Mildred doesn't die in two seconds every time Quelaag spits lava on the ground, naked though Mildred may be. She's got flash sweat on at all times. :-p

More like he thought the fight was over and walked away and then all the clones spawned xd

I think Lautrec was robbed of this victory. Watching the health bar I realized that some of the NPCs had their summon's stats while others had their regular stats. Prime example of this would be Solaire of Astora, who took nearly no damage from Pinwheel, despite his health and armor being comparable to Lautrec's, suggesting that he was actually a white summon. Lautrec is also summonable and I'm pretty confident that if he had the same stats as his summon for Gaping Dragon fight he would've won with ease.

This comment made me think, has anybody plugged a better AI into these characters and tried this? Like, a learning AI?

Well... Fire Keeper from Anor Londo did same, but still won.

@@moradan81 The thing is, they probably would. You have to remember that Lautrec is meant to challenge the player in a 3 on 1 fight, so his AI aggressiveness seems to be toned down a lot. My guess is that he was strong enough that trying to fight him early on is still hard, and that by the time you would crush him, he has killed the FK and fled, so you have to fight him 1 on 3. Because if you try attacking him in Firelink, you'll notice he's no where near as aggro as the crestfallen warrior

Lautrec's AI is so defensive, he tries to dodge any _action,_ not even attacks; if Pinwheel is jumping, flying, summoning, Lautrec is trying to "dodge" those things instead of attacking, no wonder he lost

Ask for the Chrest of Artorias and go back to Firelink. DON'T go to Andre's basement, there is a Titanite Demon there it will murder you. Once back in Firelink, take the lift and go to the valley of the drakes. Ignore the treasure in front of the dead dragon and it'll leave you alone. Now, stick right and go up a cave, keep going higher until you reach a cross road. Turn right. Continue on the path until you reach a big stone wall. There might be a few angry bushes on the way but they aren't a match for you. Use the Chrest to open the door and you are in the hunter's forest.

Pinwheel always felt like lost at least an extra zero of his dmg value and health.

I find Pinwheel to be a hard and fun fight if you fight him with a low damage weapon as then you will have to deal with the clones to that I didn’t even know about until fighting him early game on a new character for extra kindling

@@Debilinside I think pinwheels difficulty is a result of the levels placement. And also probably lore reasons as pinwheel hardly comes off as a great warrior. Being available from firelink shrine they wanted it to be possible to beat him early and don't forget he is actually hard if doing so right away.

Maybe pinwheel is FromSoft apologizing about the actual boss of the area, the bone wheel pit.

@Qalidurut I think it's just a balance fuck-up. If Pinwheel is meant to be easy, he wouldn't come at the end of the FUCKING Catacombs!

Yeah, but he could have killed the Chosen Undead, yeah, I know the secrets.

I feel like he just got really unlucky with his targeting.
