Dark Souls 2 SOTFS Guide - How to Beat the Fume Knight SOLO NG+3
PREPARE TO CRY EDITION

I show you here how to take down the final boss of the Crown of the Old Iron King DLC from Dark Souls 2 SOTFS

FUME KNIGHT INFORMATION:
The rebel Raime, after his defeat at the hands of Velstadt, came to Brume Tower in search of greater strength.
When he found it, it came not from a regal father figure like before, but from a newfound mother, who gave him true purpose.

LOCATION:
Found at the bottom of Brume Tower, near the Throne Floor bonfire.

DROPS:
-84,000 (Standard Game) 168,000 (NG+), 336,000 (ng+7)
-Soul of the Fume Knight
-Soul of Nadalia Bride of Ash x1

ATTACK DESCRIPTION:

Vertical Strike:
He raises his Ultra Greatsword and slashes the target downwards. When he does this, his UGS becomes cracky. He often uses this when Character is using items (Usually Estus Flask). This attack can smash the Character to the ground.

Thrust - Running Sweep:
He tries to run at a distant target and thrust him/her with his Longsword. This attack has nearly perfect tracking and cannot be avoided by strafing. Sometimes, instead of doing a thrust attack, he goes for a sweep attack with his Ultra Greatsword. - Rolling to his left could be a viable option.

Combination:
He will do a horizontal slash, a right to left slash (from your point of view) and a thrust with his straight sword mostly followed by a sweeping strike with the ultra greatsword. He may do any of these attacks as a single hit. - You can easily dodge the straight sword by simply rolling to his left. When he follows up with Ultra Greatsword, just stay close to his left side and roll when the strike passes you.

Side Sweeps:
He will do a quick side sweep with his straight sword (left side) or ultra greatsword (right side), should you stand there. Be careful, for he gives little indication when he does it. - You can roll towards him at the moment he strikes and dodge it.

Dark Flame Weapon:
After some time, he will hold his Ultra Greatsword in both hands then charges it with dark fire, dealing additional Dark AND Fire damage. Unlike most other bosses, he does not take reduced damage while buffing himself. Additionally, he uses this immediately if you wear Velstadt's Helm before he drops below the otherwise required hp threshold. - Vertical Strike prevents this from happening, for a short time while his UGS is glowing.

Charged Thrust:
After he jumps back or if a certain distance is between him and his target, he will sometimes wait a second and than charge thrust with the ultra greatsword. - Simply roll to either side. Great opportunity to land a few hits.

Dark Flame Slash:
He will charge for a second and the fire on his sword will grow in size, before he unleashes a slow but heavy hitting attack. The closer you are to the hilt of the sword, the larger the hitbox. - You can roll into and therefore under the attack.

Dark Flame Orbs:
He will stab his sword into the ground, Making a shockwave and several Fire Orbs come out. It makes a noise and a glowing that are hard to miss.
He sometimes does this in front of the player (Causing mild damage). This makes it hard to evade this move.
The damage of the explosion is the same as the damage of a single dark flame orb.
