Huntsman's Copse #2

Across a large metal bridge I elected to delve into a cave to find some old friends – the resurrecting skeletons. Like before once you find the necromancer they stay dead. The necromancers now have those homing soul spears which are annoying but otherwise I had no bother. I eventually got a key which gave me access to a bonfire at the beginning of the caves so back I went.

Here I met an NPC who told me that Pate was a bad egg and he was basically going to kill him. Fair enough. Back through the cave via a shortcut I'd opened and on to the boss. The Skeleton Lords consist of about 8? slightly tougher skeletons with a couple of mages, bonewheels and some dual wielders amongst them. Handy enough as there are pillars to retreat behind and there only seemed to be 2 guys attacking at any one time. The R2 strong attack on the Large Club has a wide arc and is great for smashing multiple enemies like the weaker skeletons. On to Harvest Valley.
