You don't have to start Dark Souls threads with obvious bait, they don't need encouragement to get going, they aren't fucking Monster Hunter.
STOP THESE POSTS OP
>>334827124
That's the first boss anon
>>334826859
I got to him last night and decided to do one attempt. Got him a little bit past half health and wasn't even embered. Going to get the Anri questline done so I can kill him easier.
>>334826859
Is that gyndolin?

>>334826859
So what is aldrich exactly?
What does he looked like before he devoured some gods?
>>334827682
A big black blob of shit
A regular human
>>334827682
Hes some saint that was in anor londo cathedral that developed an insatiable hunger for powerful souls.
BEST GIRL
>>334827256
So it is Boytoy's corpse.
I was greatly confused for a while, I couldn't tell if Aldritch was using his torso as a puppet or if Aldritch was also a pretty boy who had a massive worm body.
What I don't understand is, how long exactly were the events from DS1 and DS3 spaced apart? You'd think with the sheer amount of construction and differences that happened it would take about a hundred or thousand years, but apparently you walk into the room with Aldritch when it's in the process of eating Gwyn.
Has Gwyn been around that entire time?
>walk into the boss room

Just wait, it gets worse.
>>334828451
I tried dark+fire 2nd time since his magic was purple
still killed him tho
>>334827559
but these guilty feet have no rhythm. :(
>>334828597
>Friends hyping him up like he was some massive fucking Wall to overcome
>beat him my second try going in blind with 7 estus remaining
He's an easier mix of Kalameet and half of the swordsman bosses from DaS III.
I had more trouble with Vordt, Dragonslayer Armor, Aldrich, and Dancer.
>Trying to beat Pontiff Sulyvahn with sword'n board
Just kill me now please thanks.
>summon 3 phantoms
>do it because idgaf
>walk into fog door

>soul spear
>they all die in one swipe
What level did you fight him at? I'm wondering if I'm overleveled, because everything from Irythill on has been easy and I'm not that great. I think I was ~70 when I fought him.
>>334828984
I still love this gif
>>334829031
Youre overleveled. I was lvl75 when I completed the game
>>334828740
You. I like you.
>arrow rain in fire phase
>throws more homing missiles out when your running out of stamina from arrows
>die 67 times to Sulyvahn
>beat Aldrich and Dancer at first try
something's wrong with me
>>334826859
You need to sprint from the arrows, not roll.
>>334828745
What weapon were you using
>>334826859
All you fags bitching bout the game being hard v
But you don't know real pain. You haven't played the game only with an ultragreatsword. The second half of the game shits on you because every boss is agressive as fuck and when you see an opening youhave every chance of getting hit before you recover from the one attack you can make that does the same as a straightsword attack. FUUUUUUCK THIS GAME REEEEEE.
>>334829756
Uuuuchi.
>>334828597
Dragon form is easy as cake, just don't run away and roll through the fire and get easy hits off the head during.
His 2nd form isn't that hard too. Just imagine a faster, harder hitting 1st form Lothric who charges instead of teleports.
>>334829785
>Not realizing that you're suppose to use R2s in UGSs against bosses since they come out no slower than a R1
In many cases,when you only have enough time for one, or two perfectly timed swings in on a boss during their recovery, you can easily land a R2 and do the damage of 2-3 straight sword R1s.
>Post YFW Dragonslayer Armour
Best souls boss yet, but could do without the dragon lasers.
>>334829785
>tfw you choose warrior as starting class

>>334830119
Sorry, what? Quality STR/DEX build with pretty much any refined straight sword is OP in this game.
Literally cancer
>>334830098
>Dragonslayer Armour
That move when you trigger him, he get on his knees making you think you can spam him but NOPE he slams the ground was great
>>334828036
how does she know when she is blind?
>tfw no summon/ember
>inb4 dark sword
>invade someone
>they have the no-animation glitch
Every fucking time. Why do I even bother?
>>334830816
Someone needs to drawfag the Persona 4 kids going "now's our chance" then getting their shit pushed in by dragonslayer.
>>334830098
I killed him first try spamming the sick spin sword's l1 and ducking under all of his attacks.
>the gwyn's theme in the second phase of SoC

That is the cycle of 90% of threads on /v/ now, just the same fucking OP as two hours previous to get the same comments.
man face
>>334832053
Poor Gwyndolin.
>>334832228
he's a hat now
>>334828037
He looks like gwyndolin because he ate his corpse. After consuming him he learned everything Gwyndolin knew(including his magic) and started to look like him as well. Which, knowing what Aldrich is capable of begs the question, was he already a gravelord or did he perhaps eat the remains of Nito or another powerful gravelord?
>>334829453
Thanks for the tip bc that's what's been happening to me. The arrow attack isn't that bad in the beginning of the fight, but when his health gets low it sucks. The attack starts and I'm just counting seconds, "One, two, three, four, five, si- Jesus Christ! Is this gonna stop anytime soon!?"
>>334827420
That's the Dancer. First boss is Gundyr. She can be the second boss, but usually she isn't fought until way later.
Only 'difficult' boss was Nameless King 1st form.
And that's because Lock-On was absolute fucking trash and fire attack is complete undodgeable bullshit.
Once the initial hype wears off people will settle in to how linear the game is and how shit or just unoriginal some of bosses were.
