Who is strongest in Dark Souls lore? Gwyn is by far the most powerful character in the games, that is up until he sacrificed himself to the flame.
DS2's Bearer of the Curse is probably the strongest, given that power stance is an option. The Ashen One is close, thanks to weapons like the Twin Ringed Greatswords. In terms of fighting ability: Bloodborne's Hunter is undoubtedly the most skilled out of all protagonists.
Regardless of the outcome of their mission, the Ashen One is certainly the most powerful of the Dark Souls protagonists.
If you think about it, The Ashen One is one of the single most powerful forces in the entire DS lore. The Chosen Undead and Cursed bested many powerful beings on their journeys, proving themselves to be stronger than even them.
The Chosen Undead is the player character and the protagonist of Dark Souls.
Gwyn, also known as the Lord of Sunlight and the Lord of Cinder, is the main antagonist and final boss of the video game Dark Souls.
Gael is essentially the second strongest being in the world at the part of the game where he is a boss. So, 4 beings with split souls of light(whose fatal weakness is dark, mind you *cough* Artorias of the Abyss). Gael would annihilate them.
Being a combination of every past Lord of Cinder, the Soul of Cinder combines all of their powers and knowledge, making it one of the most powerful beings in all of Dark Souls, if not even the strongest of all.
As things are, Slave Knight Gael Would win as he is more agile and has those flame/skull ranged attacks. If Artorias was rebooted to bring him up to date with Gael's technology he would win. Artorias is only easier because he is more predictable. With an update, he would telegraph far less.
Chosen Undead is the protagonist of the video game Dark Souls.
The original Dark Souls cemented several of its boss fights as FromSoft classics, but Dragon Slayer Ornstein and Executioner Smough are among the toughest standouts.
Soul of Cinder Tips
Cannot be spell parried. Weak to Lightning Damage and Dark Damage. While using Sorcery set during phase one, he is extremely vulnerable to Vow of Silence. Resistant to Fire Damage.
Gwyn, Lord of Cinder
If you're not really good, be prepared for this fight to be brutal. Gwyn isn't just strong, he's fast, too. There's really no pattern to his attacks, and he can close with you quickly if you're trying to keep him at range. One mistake can end the fight, so you need to be on your game.
The Nameless King is considered by most to be the hardest Dark Souls 3 boss. Located at the Archdragon Peak, this boss appears after you ring the bell by the Great Belfry. This boss is fought in two phases, with one being while he rides a wyvern. Watch out for his piercing attacks while he is on foot.
gael is 10x harder than malenia.
Slave Knight Gael is a key figure in Dark Souls, to put it lightly. He's the final boss in the entire series, standing tall at the end of the Ringed City DLC, growing from a lowly man in rags to a hulking knight with a decrepit greatsword.
Among the more famous of these discrepancies is that Gwyn, the Lord of Sunlight, the final boss of Dark Souls, is weak to Fire – but he wields a flaming sword and was the very person who linked the First Flame long ago. Gwyn's nonsensical weakness is but one of many that stick out throughout the series.
Gwyn isn't evil, but his ailing stature and increasingly desperate deeds have become a corrupting influence on the realm he was trying to protect. Whether you want to rekindle the flame and begin a new Age of Fire, or let it die and plunge the world into the Age of Dark, Gwyn must die first.
