The Gaping Dragon is the boss in the Depths, and gives you the key to the upper entrance to Blighttown. This boss is optional with the Master Key as one's chosen gift during character creation, which can be used to enter Blighttown through the back entrance in Valley of Drakes.Is Gaping Dragon optional?
The Gaping Dragon has several weaknesses that can be taken advantage of. First and foremost, it qualifies as a dragon, meaning that it's weak against lightning damage. Second, managing to strike the head will do extra damage, though this can be risky. Lastly, its tail is also a weak point.DARK SOULS Buffed by Channeler Gaping Dragon (spoiler! someone dies)
