With the Devil's Nail Warhammer, two Barbed Nails accessories, and the Impact Augment; you will be able to knock Death down with a good level 200 Warrior. Chances improve if the Cursed King's Belt is worn and either the Persecutor's or the Tormenter's Mask. As a pure warrior, maneuver so Death is a level below you on steps or elsewhere where you can mitigate his height advantage.

A coordinated attack is more effective. If a Warrior coordinates jump attacks with a Strider's Hailstorm Volley, the combination has a high probability of knocking Death down. In this case, the Warrior does not need to be on an elevated level with respect to Death because the Hailstorm volley will cause Death to drop down close to the ground. The Hailstorm Volley is most effective with a good level 200 Strider using the Darkening Storm Bow, the Strider's Band, a Barbed Nails accessory, the impact augment, and Wearing the Cursed King's Belt.

The Warrior's damage can be greatly increased with the Eminence, Ferocity, Clout, and Vehemence augments; however, increased damage is far less important than increased stagger and knockdown. If you are unable to stagger or knockdown Death, he will disappear after a little more than a life bar's damage. The Strider/Warrior combination is very effective but, on hard difficulty, Death will usually extricate himself after losing three to four lifebars. On Normal or Easy Difficulty, a Strider and a Warrior, equipped as recommended above, can defeat a full-health Death in one go.
