It shows how close each item you've equipped is to reaching its breaking point. That little red bar under each item on your HUD is really, really important. If for some reason you do end up stuck in this Covenant, speak with The Cat in Majula to escape. You can also elect to kill the Knight of Blue, which results in him dropping the Blue Knight's Halberd.Unless you're a crazy person or a Dark Souls expert, don't kneel at the Victors Shrine in Majula and join the Covenant of the Company of Champions. If you have successfully been summoned to another player's world and defeated the boss(as a phantom only, does not count as a shade), the NPC will offer you a covenant with the Sentinels of Blue. Blue Sentinel Targray looks over the balcony. Back up on the balcony, a wooden chest on the left holds 3x Cracked Blue Eye Orb, while the iron chest to the right contains the Heide Knight Iron Mask and a Tower Shield. On the right before the balcony is a staircase down which leads to a room only containing a bonfire. Killing him allows you to go to the balcony ahead. Create as much distance as you can between the two of you, to avoid taking a dangerous amount of damage, if not death. Very powerful AOE signaled by the Old Dragonslayer gathering a large cloud of dark energy around himself. There is a triple shot version of Dark Shot in a fanned spread pattern, signaled by the spear being pointed forward and then being charged with dark energy. This can be dodged with a well time roll, out of the direction of the shot (left or right). Powerful ranged energy attack, signaled by the spear being raised above his head and then being charged with dark energy. The best way to handle this technique is to block the first hit and roll forward on the second you will roll underneath the second lunge giving you a perfect opening to deal some damage as he recovers his poise. The Old Dragonslayer will hold his spear and two hands and perform a quick forward thrust followed by a slower and more powerful second thrust. Very dangerous technique which will quickly drain all stamina, if blocked fully. Touch the ground with one hand and draw the other behind himself before rushing forward, attack can be blocked with enough stamina or parried with correct timing. Signaled by his spear being raised into the air then quickly lowered. Very powerful charge, when he is low on health the Old Dragonslayer will begin using this unblockable technique. Suggested to roll forward do no try to block. Powerful leaping smash similar to the leaping stab but slower.

Quick and powerful leaping stab easily dodged by rolling forward, can also be blocked but at a large cost of stamina. Takes a single swipe and then leaps backwards. If you are feeling flashy the attack can also be parried fairly easily by blocking the first swipe and then parrying on the second. This can be both blocked, or dodge by moving behind his back. If you feel you are not far enough away back up some more, it is always better to be safe than sorry. As mentioned in his attacks, this is the signal to run or roll away as fast as possible. The Old Dragonslayer will begin gathering dark energy around himself. Similar to the second phase of his Dark Souls fight he will use his Dark Crash in a very similar fashion to his Old Lightning Slam.

As with the Dragonrider, the key to this boss fight is staying behind your enemy's back. There's only one main strategy or tactic to employ as a melee. If you haven't already, from here you can go back to Heide's Tower of Flame and proceed to No Man's Warf. You can also elect to kill the Knight of Blue, which results in him dropping the Blue Knight's Halberd. Back up on the balcony, a wooden chest on the left holds 3x Cracked Blue Eye Orb, while the iron chest to the right contains a Tower Shield and a Cleric's Parma. Step through the mist to take on a familiar foe. Right before the mist, you'll find a corpse holding an Old Radiant Lifegem, and next to it, an iron chest containing x5 Human Effigies. Your first steps into the Cathedral of Blue begins with a boss fight.
