![]() This may however require precise timing, as most spells have high starting lag which can leave the player unable to evade attacks. Spells such as Sorceries, Pyromancies, and Miracles can be effective at bypassing their armor, which like most shields, is not as effective at blocking elemental damage as it is physical damage.Alternatively if no reliable thrust weapons are available, jump attacks also can not be deflected. ![]() If this strategy is used with weapons that inflict one of the two, it will be better to use thrust weapons against them, as it doesn't cause the weapon to be deflected. As the boars are no longer able to be backstabbed, the player can instead use Poison or Fire to deal damage, as they are weak to them.The boars cannot leave The Duke's Archive, and can be lured towards the exit, where then the player can use ranged attacks to kill them.Shooting at the exposed rear end/tail when it returns to its position will draw its aggro again but retreating to the archway and then repeating the process will eventually kill it. A way to kill the boar without going up to the walkway, and by only using the short bow and heavy arrows, is through drawing aggro by attacking the boar in first person mode and then quickly retreating to the archway of the stairs to the right of the portcullis which it cannot enter.The boar cannot go past the pillars by the stairs, so they can be used in conjunction with a long reaching weapon to easily defeat the boar.The boar can be backstabbed, taking a large portion of its health.Slowly walk off the staircase until the boar charges, then rush back on so that it enters the fire.Or use any ranged attack choice (bows, spells, etc.). From the same position drop Firebombs on the boar.The Alluring Skulls used above can also be thrown directly into a fire below the ledge, killing the boar by self-immolation.Take the Alluring Skulls from a corpse on the ledge and toss one so that the boar moves under the ledge, then use a plunging attack. Head up the staircase on the right to reach the walkway with the two crossbow-wielding Hollow Soldiers.
