Or gone too soon. Probably that.

Also, another round-up. I beat the Ancient Dragon!!!
Took me about 10 tries. Almost always with summons. Both died very fast, so I had to take the dragon at 70% health alone.
What a thrill. What an excitement.
At the end my hands were literally shaking and I realized that my back was all wet. So tense, yet so fun.
I did melee only and it got substantially easier once I figured the right method. I would stand halfway in front of him and once he started raising his head for his forward-flames, sprint directly at him to his front paws. Hammer down three times and then immediately retreat to halfway in front of his head again. Usually he would fly up, so after seeing that I sprinted away as fast as possible. Once the flames were gone, ran halfway towards him again. Rinse & Repeat.
I put on Flame Quartz Ring +1 but to stay nimble very light armor. This was only just enough to stay alive once caught in his fire.
What a sensation it was to defeat him though
