| |Recommended Level: I did it at around Level 50. The Hydra was easy, the Man Eater Shells were brutal.||
|1|Entrance, path back to the Great Hollow||
|2|Bonfire and (optionally, depending on their story progression) Siegmeyer and Sieglinde of Catarina||
|3|Along this path you will not alert the Hydra to early to get caught in the open||
|4|Standing here, you will make the Hydra approach you in a quite safe way. You will want her to get close enough so her projectiles don't hit you, but instead go over your head. Stay in the area of sand and water-on-sand, hitting her heads each time after they strike down, but make sure you don't get too close to the deep water, as e.g. an L2 swing might push you over the edge.||
|5|I don't see a 5 on the map but I'll just say stay away from the Man Eater Shells, they are more trouble than they are worth||
|5|Another hiding spot from the Hydra?||
|6|Safest way is to take the outside branch, killing the Basilisk by hitting it once, then not hitting again as it will jump into the water. Trying to hit a second time might make you follow him to a wet death. Then pull the two other Basilisks from the Entrance, and lastly the Mushroom. After that retreat a bit on the branch and drop down so you can walk inside to the heightened platform.||
|7|Bonfire. You can teleport here with the Lordvessel once you unlocked it.||
|8|Everlasting dragon. Pray to it to join the Path of the Dragon Covenant.||
|9|Dragon's tail. Hit it one or more times to get the Dragon Greatword.||
