that is good strategy for someone who needs to kill it 1st time. for later, NOT SO MUCH

you make your self completely slugish, since death will be popping up everywhere. and heavier you are, slower you are, slower you climb and consume stamina faster.

but, there is a way to do the same without those for much less sideeffect. you won't kill death in one go, but you'll at least not carry tons of stuff on you.

dragon's ire+cursed kings belt+master ring that gives as much stagger as possible. in my case 497. before encounter use Gale Harness+(periapts OR Liquid Vim) and simply start fivefold spree. death will be gone before it could finish sleep since dragon's ire will stagger it almost as blast arrows. you will only take 1.5 bars, true. but, weight cost is 1,2 which equals 5 blast arrows and periapts can be bought anytime.

i only carry 40 blast arrows on my pawn now for death-be-gone if i encounter it during a fight.
