11 Video Game Bosses With Genius Hidden Weaknesses

11. Capra Demon - Dark Souls

After reaching the Undead Burg in Dark Souls, our unnamed protagonist is stopped dead in his tracks by a Capra Demon. The brawl takes place in a confined room, dramatically impairing the player's movements. On top of that, the demon's Attack Dogs keep stunning the player, making it difficult to tackle the sinister satyr head-on.

Luckily, there are ways to make this bout easier. If The Ring of Fog is equipped, the mangy mutts will ignore our hero, allowing him to focus all his attention on the boss.

But by equipping another item, it's possible to vanquish the goat-beast before setting foot in his room.

That secret weapon is... crap. Literally.

While standing on the other side of the fog gate, the player can hurl Dung Pies over the wall, plopping right onto the demon's head. Making contact with poo triggers the Toxic Status effect, sapping away the Capra's health. Once he's been hit with ten Dung Pies or so, the feral fiend will succumb to his demise. What a way to go.

Although there are similar strategies to best the Capra, this one is by far the funniest.
