Ornstein and Smough in Dark Souls are one of the most iconic and challenging boss battles in the game. Found in Anor Londo, players face the agile and lightning-fast Ornstein, a dragon-slaying knight, alongside the massive, slow but devastating Smough, a hulking executioner. The fight tests players' ability to manage two completely different combat styles at once—Ornstein’s speed and ranged attacks paired with Smough’s brute force. Timing, patience, and strategic positioning are key to overcoming this legendary duo, making them a standout moment in Dark Souls’ brutal difficulty.
