So, we all agree that this was one of, if not, the best fight in the game, right?
>>
>>334653513
one of yeah, but the Dancer, Soul, THE CHAMP and apparently the Nameless King were all better
>>
>>334653784
Dancer is fucking Bloodbabby trash, and Nameless is piss easy, fampai.

Soul of Cinder is so gud tho

>it's a "hyper-aggressive literally never stops attacking" boss

hardest boss fight in the game but not the best by any means
chaining attacks together endlessly =/= good boss

>>it's a "hyper-aggressive literally never stops attacking" boss

The first half of the Nameless King was fucking garbage. The only difficulty of that part was the camera sperging out.

>>334655829
No, it's about a 50/50 split. Dragonslayer Armor, Dancer, the Princes, and first Gundyr all have noticeable recovery times after attacking. Pontiff, Nameless King, Champion, Soul of Cinder, and Abyss Watchers are all hyper-aggressive bosses. Even then, Pontiff takes the came when it comes to stringing together combos without pause

Aldrich is really cool. Just the location of the fight alone is awesome, and dat music. My mind was blown when I revisited anor londo for the first time. Fuck I love this series.

God tier bosses are Pontiff, Champion Gundyr, Soul of Cinder and second phase of Nameless King

Lothric/Lorian can be here too if you value lore/emotion as part of a fight's quality

Uchi seems to be the best katana, though darkdrift and the washing pole might be contenders.

Try out the hollow slayer greatsword, it has shit scaling but it's fun to use.

Aldrich fight was nice for nostalgia reasons.

Question: Aldrich ate the corpses of the Lords that the Pilgrim from DaS 1 killed, right? So what did he look like before eating all those people and wearing Gwyndolin as a hat? Was he just a priest like his followers or was he some eldrich abomination?
>>
>>334657191
It also has a reverse r2 moveset which turns me off from it. The charge stab is just too good of a move.

Even if some of the fights were kinda easy, I found that I enjoyed all of them quite a bit. I felt the same way about Bloodborne too.

It just takes forever. I can dodge his shit all day, but between the camera freaking out, the dragon head being slightly out of reach, and the boss flying all over the goddamn place, it's at least 5 minutes before I can get to phase 2.

Then I get slam jammed in 2 hits because I barely have any practice against it because it takes SO FUCKING LONG.

If you fought her with summons, it's inevitable that someone would wind up behind her. From back there, the boss design loses all its cleverness and plummets from genius to standard Japanese perversion.

Irithyll is probably the best looking location in in any Souls game ever. It's pretty and so fucking comfy.

And this game has a lot of great boss fights; Pontiff being one of them. I love Abyss Watchers too for some reason. Reminds me of Artorias.

It was an interesting concept. Basically Pinwheel/Congregation done right. It was easy as fuck, sure, but just mowing down endless mobs to get to the bid bads was a lot of fun and thematically it felt really good. It really did pull the whole Cathedral together.

So true. And everything was going so well at first, creating an entire kingdom full of scholars and artisans and being the god king of legends that took down immortal goddamn dragons by throwing lightning bolts at then like he was Zeus or something. But when it rains it pours and he fell harder than probably anything else in the universe. Even those dragons he usurped.

The Dark is directly linked to the appearance of the Darksign/Undead. The undead are direct indicators of a threat to the Flame. Gwyn figured he could beat fate by getting rid of the symptoms of the Dark(The undead).

>>334665265
The fate of all undead is to go hollow though. Even in DS1, people are always amazed to find undead that have completely hollowed out yet. I think they actually needed souls to keep from going hollow so undead would naturally seek them out in some way. Merchants had a pretty peaceful way of collecting souls even if all the souls they dealt in were misbegotten... and fuckers like Patches would murder them when they least expected it.

I found that using slower weapons against him created a lot of difficulty. In switching from the claymore to the butcher's knife, I was able to beat him on my next attempt after struggling for nearly an hour though.

Nah nameless, aldrich and soul of cinder pounded my dick in but I feel like a lot of the early boss battles are actually really good but are ruined by limited health. I love the multiple forms of a boss where the changes are subtle but enough to fuck you over but a lot of the earlier bosses just get melted so hard you dont get to appreciate the boss design. Though I do think DS3 might be the easiest soulsborne game but it's not a breeze.

Dancer violated me. She took me something like 30 tries, which hasn't happened since my first Souls playthrough. The roll windows on some of those double sword moves are nearly impossible to time. Not to mention the arena being cramped.

Great design though.

I don't get what the deal is with Dancer. Beat her on my second try with the Black Knight Greatsword. Dragonslayer's Armor on the other hand is the fight that made me switch back to a straight sword build.

He must have been pretty normal looking until he ate Gwyndolin. After that he wore his hat, gained his Darkmoon powers and snake features which is likely what caused Gwyndolin to be raised as a female in the first place.

I honestly recommend running past enemies until you get to a bonfire, the pyro guys don't chase you and they're the most annoying to deal with.

You get the carvings for leaving stuff for the bird on top of Firelink, you can keep leaving random stuff or just look up a list.

>>334684274
That place genuinely isn't that bad.
There is one group that is annoying but it's entirely optional and doesn't even have to be ran past.

Dancer knights that come at you first will run into your sword.
Sword and shield darkness barf enemies will lose if you two hand your weapon, easy to break their guard. Easy to kill them if they choose to attack after blocking
Fire spawners are annoying but you can sort of back off and the enemies around them will run ahead and out of their reach.

The theme of the fight is great but honestly the fight is pretty disapointing. The big guy for you has like 4 moves which are all quite easy to dodge. I wish it had been a bit more brutal fight. You got plenty of time to replenish your health in that fight, unlike in Champion or Nameless King fights.

Every boss is easy except for pontiff. That guy is a fucking relentless killing machine with no remorse. Took me forever to beat him.

I feel like I was the only one that missed the whole Archdragon Peak zone. Both my friends that also played the game told me they figured it out on their own, so maybe I'm just stupid for not figuring it out.

I did the whole Yhorm segment before Aldrich so maybe I just forgot about the part outside the dungeon with the bodies. It didn't even cross my mind I had to use an emote there, didn't Bloodborne have something similar?

It's what I get for going to NG+ I guess, I didn't hear about the area until my friend told me since I thought Smouldering Lake was the only secret area and didn't expect a second one.

Much easier, I wasn't landing any parry's but when I equiped the Farron Greatsword which "2 handed mode" is actually just pulling out a dagger in the left hand I was parrying everything.

I'm not sure how much of it was me getting good (and placebo) but it definetly has less start-up frames.
