Update, everyone...

Just solo'd them. And won.

It took 11 +2 estus flasks and 4 uses of Heal, but I now have Ornstein's soul and the Leo Ring.

Suffered a lot of damage at the hands of the shank 'n' shock, which I blocked once or twice but went through more times. A stable shield is a must for Ornstein, his attack chain will end in huge damage if he manages to stagger you and his reach and moveset are practically impossible to go up against without a shield. If you see him ending a missed attack, two-hand that big strength weapon, hit him with it, then bring the shield back. You must wait for opportunities to present themselves or you will get skewered over and over again.
