Finally reached the final boss in the NG+1 cycle.
To see if there was some kind of additional dialogue or at least something interesting going to happen, i decided to face him while wearing his own armor (that i took on his corpse to take his place in the original cycle) , though i notice now in the screenshot i used the wrong helmet oops.
Sadly nothing new or interesting happened :/
And as for some reason the final boss armor (that can only be obtained by taking one of the 2 possible ending of the game, and so can be used only in NG+something) is no where as good as the best armors of the game when it comes to damage reduction (armors that you obtain earlier), the less i can say is that my mistakes in missing my rolling or the AI deciding to spam his unblockable grab attack, my character got trashed rather quickly
I really need to work on my rolls, too many death because i always miss the timing.
Blocking has been awesome in comparison (especially with an upgraded Iron Rampart shield that can reach 100% resistance to everything) except for enemies that can use or spam unblockable attacks (like that final boss like to do often), too bad in this game 1 handed weapons start to be weak in NG+1 (and it apparently get a lot worse in further NG+ in which you can't kill anything fast anymore with 1 handed weaponry).
