Can you get the covenant of Artorias without killing Sif?

No, you cannot get the Covenant of Artorias ring in the base Dark Souls game without killing Great Grey Wolf Sif, as the ring is dropped directly by Sif after defeating him, and it's required to survive the Abyss to fight the Four Kings. While there are ways to spare Sif in the DLC by saving him in the past, this doesn't change the necessity of killing him in your current playthrough to get the ring for the Four Kings fight and game progression.

Can Sif be saved?

You can't fully "save" Great Grey Wolf Sif in the main Dark Souls game, as killing him is required to progress and get the Covenant of Artorias, but you can save him as a puppy in the Artorias of the Abyss DLC to unlock a special, more poignant cutscene when you fight him later, by rescuing him from the Chasm of the Abyss before his boss fight in Darkroot Garden, as detailed on the Steam Community forums.

What is the most overpowered weapon in Dark Souls 1?

There's no single "best" weapon in Dark Souls 1, as it depends on playstyle, but the Black Knight Halberd (BKH), Zweihander, Claymore, and Great Scythe are consistently top contenders for their power, early availability (BKH/Zweihander), or versatility. The BKH offers immense damage early on, the Zweihander's pancake attack trivializes many enemies, the Claymore is a solid all-rounder, and the Great Scythe boasts high DPS and good range.

What is considered the hardest boss in Dark Souls 1?

The hardest boss in Dark Souls 1 is subjective, but Ornstein & Smough (O&S) are widely considered the toughest base-game challenge due to their relentless duo assault, while Manus, Father of the Abyss, from the DLC, is often cited as the absolute hardest due to his aggression and punishing combos, with Bed of Chaos being notoriously frustrating for its poor design. Other contenders include the DLC's Kalameet, the tricky Four Kings (especially in NG+), and the infamous Capra Demon (due to its dogs).

Does killing Sif break Forest Covenant?

No, killing Sif does not break the Forest Hunter Covenant in Dark Souls; you can kill Sif and remain in the covenant, as Sif isn't a member, and it's required for story progression to get the Covenant of Artorius ring to enter the Abyss. Attacking covenant members like Alvina or Shiva breaks it, but Sif is an essential boss, and Alvina doesn't penalize you for it, though some players report unique dialogue if they've completed the DLC first.

Which is better, the Greatsword of Artorias or Cursed?

Both versions of Artorias' sword have low scaling spread across four attributes, and you've only got investment in one of them, so either will be a noticeable downgrade. If you've got the stats for it, though, I'd say the uncursed sword is a little better than the cursed, at least for pve.

What are Four Kings weak to?

The Four Kings in Dark Souls are weakest to high-burst damage and elemental affinities like Fire, Lightning, and Magic, but primarily they are a DPS (damage per second) check, meaning you need to kill them fast to prevent more from spawning. Staying close to their bodies minimizes damage from their attacks, and high Poise armor helps tank hits while you unleash heavy attacks, making high DPS weapons or buffed weapons extremely effective, especially with buffs like {!nav}Power Within{/nav}.
