Undead Prince Ricard is a Mini-Boss in Dark Souls.
Undead Prince Ricard Information
Prince Ricard was born into royalty, but wandered the lands in a fateful, ill-conceived journey. It is told that he became hollow and disappeared up north, where he now guards a lone tower in Sen's Fortress. Judging from his Elite Knight Armor, one can assume he was of Astoran royalty.
Located past the Berenike Knight in the upper area of Sen's Fortress, take the path to the left of where he was standing to find a ladder. Follow the path the ladder leads to, in order to find him.
Drops
- 4000 souls
- Ricard's Rapier
- Guards a Divine Blessing and a Rare Ring of Sacrifice.
Weapons
Ricard's Rapier +10
Longbow +10
Buckler Shield +10
Strategies
Ricard guards the narrow pathway and stairs to the tower. His heavy armor inhibits his dodging ability and makes it harder to miss him. He uses his bow from a distance, and up close he switches to his rapier which has a unique set of fast, consecutive stabs. He has the ability to parry using his buckler, if given the chance, so be prepared.
The only real strategy here is to go ham. Bombard him with attacks, and he should go down easily enough.
Ricard the Archer? Why? Ricard the fencer wouldnt be right either, but less wrong than "the Archer".
Undead Prince Ricard is his official name, i think. Prince Ricard would do as well.

Would it be cheating if I used the target shield instead of the buckler for my Prince Ricard playthrough? Sure the extra stability is nice, but I mostly just think it looks cooler.

I find it funny how he made it all the to the top of Sen’s Fortress and THEN went hollow. Once you’ve made it to the top you’ve pretty much beaten it already.

I was also wearing the elite knight set when I fought him and thought he was some kinda illusion of my player and I was thinking of something poetic like "The final test before facing the iron giant is to see if you can master yourself" But nope!

Even with very low vitality it's a very leisurely fight, which allows you to spend more time with this guy who was undoubtedly a solid hang before he went hollow.

I smashed him with my black knight greatsword and he was down in one hit. Poor Ricard.

Where are you getting that his title was "The Archer"? No mention whatsoever is made of his archery in descriptions, just carrying a bow as a backup wouldn't really make you know as "The Archer", which would indicate significant exploits or prowess in the field, which he doesn't really display. Prince Ricard of Astora would be a more accurate title, even if "of Astora" is speculation due to his Elite Knight gear.
