Talk:Crown of the Old Iron King (helm)/@comment-4511886-20140923210908/@comment-4511886-20150326084530

Fume Knight is still a single boss, which can be reached fairly easily with the help of a bow, some form of ranged fire damage and a lot of patience.

To get the Sunken Crown, you need to defeat Sihn, to reach Sihn you must get past Elana, to reach Elana you basically need to get through every area except Cave of the Dead.

So no, it's not harder to get to Fume Knight, and it's not harder to defeat him. That said, I also beat Fume Knight long before I was even able to reach the Lair of the Imperfect.
