Shortcut to the Executioner’s Chariot

dark-souls-2

Seriously. It's kind of ridiculous. I'm assuming (hoping?) that there's some shortcut between the Huntsman's Copse – Bridge Approach bonfire and the fog wall leading to this boss. The rope bridge is right above the bonfire, so it's not that big of a stretch, right?

Please tell me there's a way, or my playthrough might just end here. Haha. I don't know if I can keep going through them over and over in order to even try and figure out how to beat the Chariot.

There isn't a shortcut of any kind, unfortunately. Sorry. Confirmed in the Collector's Edition game guide.

As for the Chariot, it's really not that difficult of a fight relatively speaking. If you want some tips, see below.

As soon as the fight starts, begin heading to the left. There are skeletons that will harass you, but don't worry about killing them. They will be resurrected by one of two necromancers. Basically, just push around the area as much as you can, taking time to duck into the small alcoves when you see the chariot coming. The chariot will either kill or knock down any skeletons that happen to be harassing you. Keep sprinting toward the first necromancer and kill it. Then clean up all the skeletons around you. Next sprint toward the second necromancer and and kill it, then clean up the skeletons. Once the two necros and all the skeletons are dead, you should see a switch across from you. Flip the switch and the fight will transition into a much more traditional style boss fight. Good luck and remember that horses don't like it when you stand right behind them.
