    When killing the dragon another option is to get the Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot ( one can be found early on south of The First Step grace ) for a 30% boost to the initial 50,000 Runes you get from killing the dragon. It only last 3 minutes so you shouldn't use it till your about to start the final bleeding proc.

      But I wouldn´t kill him since he gives you a quest later on. The best way to farm that runes is to get 40k free from the black horse rider (doesn´t know his name). You just need to run up a cliff with poison traps and he dies from allone. The rest you can get from farming a ball falling down a cliff. Each time grants you 2k ish. They are both in the same area as the Dragon is.

      There are also ashes that have combos. For example if you R2 after L2 with Flaming Strike you will perform an additional flaming attack that also buffs the weapon with fire. And there are others that need you to hold the L2 to do continuous hits (eg Wild Arms) or to press it continuously for rapid fire (eg Storm Blade).

So long as you play rock, paper, scissors against enemy weaknesses, use buffing items for yourself, and invest you stats into making your items hit harder, then it should actually be pretty easy.

      @@dddddxddxxx1138 Double uchigatana With seppuku Ashe of war, absolutely busted against almost anything (bloody Slash works too but doesnt let you increase your blood buildup)
      With Dragoncrest greatshield Talisman, Bull-goat's Talisman, old Lords Talisman and Lord of bloods exultation Talisman (increases your strength If a blood Loss Happens nearby) you Dont need to do Double seppuku (left weapon First, then right Hand weapon) for smaller enemies but is recommendable against any bigger enemy. Works great in Multiplayer too since its max health % damage damage

    Fun fact about killing Greyoll for the massive number of runes, you can use torrent to run back to the site of grace near her tail, and if you do it fast enough, her death animation doesn’t finish. The result of this is that you get all the runes from killing her but she’s still alive.
    And you can repeat this indefinitely.

    Yes, this is a joke, the sword is still useful and the nerf was to be expected.
