So the Gaping Dragon actually managed to kill me...

I wanted to save time and didnt kill the channeler you can encounter in the depths.

That was a mistake. He actually buffs the Gaping Dragon, but whats much worse is that he keeps shooting soul arrows (which have no range limit) at you.

The fact that I was playing my Onebro MJ with low ass damage didnt help either.

As I was whacking away at the dragon for an eternity while avoiding most of those arrows, I was stunned by one arrow and the dragon was finally able to hit me.

(The channeler was quickly clubbed to death after my shameful defeat)
