Re: Demon's Souls
I ended up killing the tower knight with a bow from one of the outlooks above. As long as you are close enough to lock onto his chest with R3 you can hit him just before he casts his bolt of death thingy. I also used a bow for the armor spider in 2-1, if you hug the left wall until you are in bow r...
