Oh yeah, scaled up!
I used those one my run where I exclusively used the caestus in both hands, until I was able to trade one for the dragon bone fist
dark souls 1 cestus i remember being awful to use how did you manage 😫
The damage output is garbage, but the moveset is actually SUPER fun. Right hand light attack combo is a right hook followed by a wide backhand, right hand heavy attack combo is a straight punch into an uppercut, and the left hand gets a parry and a jab.
That jab is really important, because it's faster than most other attacks in the game, and your fists stagger everything with low poise. And a LOT of enemies have low poise. So you can jab while they swing at you, and then just stunlock combo them to death. Also, even though you don't have the wide sweeps like greatswords do, you can make your attacks hit wider when fighting groups by constantly switching targets mid swing. When I was in Blighttown, I was able to fight everything without getting hit just by letting them bunch up and hitting them all faster than they could recover. Fighting Quelaag was rough tho, because she's got such high defense. For anything that's wearing armor, that's what the parry is for >:3c
I did get to Anor Londo, but I lost steam at that point, and I no longer have a regular xbone to play the game with so I never finished >.<
huh. i have been playing without locking on and now i wonder what that moveset would be like... damn, its contagious
