It isn't so much that it is difficult, it is that it requires a level of error-free game-playing precision that the primitively coded game engine is not sophisticated enough to accomodate. You can do everything 100% correct and lose because the sprites on the screen are not synced with the hitboxes. Artorias' hit-box can litereally be on the opposite side of the arena from where you are fighting him, making him temporarilly invincible. If you are over-powered enough, you won't notice this, but as a Soul Level 3 Wanderer, you definitely will notice this.
