So do we know if breaking the power up is by doing a certain amount of damage to health or damage to poise?

Btw, I realized that I was playing my first two characters more or less the same (ranged magic and tanking with shield block).

So I decided to make a new char to practice fast rolling and not relying on shield blocking. I was able to beat the capra demon on my second try with fast rolling, havel's ring and 2 handed drake sword, but I don't think I'm ready for Artorias. I'm going to get my vit up. I do think I can prbably beat him with just shield blocking, but I sort of feel like I have to try the rolling.

I watched a couple of videos of people beating Artorias with rolling and I guess I might try again, but if I'm 2 handing I have a lot more options like Black Knight Sword, Gravelord sword, Artorias' cursed. Probably some others that I can upgrade.

I noticed one video someone was using a long weapon. I have a scythe, great scythe, titanite catch pole, crystal halberd, washing pole. I also have silver knight spear and demon spear.
