Regular Gundyr is harder than Champion Gundyr.

Armour is the hardest boss in the game, followed by Dancer.

Last boss is a great fight.

Crystal Sage is the Pinwheel of DS3, and you're a scrub if you died to it.

Nah hes easy just stick close and most of his swings go over your head like quelaag. Cool ass fight though, when he summons his stand shit gets real.

Hardest bosses are the final boss and nameless king, final boss is great and a perfect sendoff for the dark souls series.

To be fair I could have beaten Aldrich solo with a few more attempts, but it had been a long night and I just wanted Anor Londo over and done with, so I summoned. Legitemaly had problems with Pontiff though, that nigga doesn't let up at all. Summoned Anri in the end and did it first time out.

My main problem is that he doesn't seem to have any attack pattern. I only won because I ran at him with a two-handed sword, screaming insults about his mother, and even then it was a close-run thing.

>Use fast weapon
>Hug and dodge left

It's not that hard. Admittedly in my first playthrough it took me almost an hour to kill him but once you learn the patterns he's really easy. Alternatively if you're good at parrying the fight should be a cakewalk. Unfortunately I suck. It took me a whole fucking day to beat the final boss. I used to be really good at parrying in DaS 1 but I suck at it in 3.

I was using Artoria's Greatsword or whatever the fuck they changed the name to. Get a quicker weapon. I ended up using a 1h Axe for the whole fight and found it much easier. Though I'd probably recommend a Longsword for better speed.
>>
>>334918805
That's because he isn't in Anor Londo, silly billy. He's in the Profained Capital. It's the area right after Irithyll Dungeons and you don't even need to explore the area to fight him. Literally just run from the bonfire, ignore the Gargoyles, and enter the boss room. Then get ready for the most gimmicky boss in the whole fight.

I wanted Yhorm to be like the Giant Lord in DaS2. Waving his giant cleaver around and trying to stop on you. Instead you kill him in 4 shots with a meme weapon.

thanks for the (you)'s.

Armour still is the hardest boss in the game, as his AOE is fucklarge while the area you fight him on is fucktiny. Only boss I died to more than 4 times.

Champion Gundyr is after Crystal Sage the easiest boss in the game. Everything he does is predictable as fuck, he has no special attacks that are hard to dodge and he's the easiest NPC in the game to parry.

Oooh, maybe I'm not in Anor Londo. I thought I was.

>>334918889
I'd rather not switch to a faster weapon, as I used the Dark Sword for my first play through. With it I could bullshit my way through things too easily, didn't really have to pay attention to my positioning or energy, or know the enemy attacks, just roll and attack a lot. Maybe it's completely needed though, there were actually no attacks of his that I could get an attack in after that were safe to do so. Just wondering if there's a way to do it with a slower weapon.
>>
>>334918513
It's because it's a big fucking waste of the time and the whole fight you have to dodge his flames while you fight those gay fucking slinky-necked cunts who attack stupidly fast for an ungodly amount of damage. And it's not like youre only fighting one at a time of them, no it's rooms of three or more while you have the dragon burning your ass. I killed Dancer on my first go and Aldrich on my second but it took me five tries to do this shit.

>>334918853
I've beaten the game with a claymore, and slow weapons are really bad in DaS3, maybe it's because even heavy armor gives you basically no poise and you can get hit out of anything. I still have no fucking clue how that whole super armor thing works, I was getting staggered whenever I got hit, mid-attack or not.
Enemies, on the other hand, seem to power through everything you throw at them making things even worse.

Sully is balls to the wall hard if you don't have a bajillion hp and a shield. One mistimed dodge through one of his infinite combos and you're pretty much dead. Second phase is easier since he stops being so aggressive. Even easier if you have enough DPS to take out the shadow while it's being summoned.

This guy is genuinely difficult though. There's almost no window to attack in his first stage and if you get to the second the windows are a bit wider but you're liable to get hit by the clone from off screen.
>>
>>334919590

Her ass and thighs are actually a part of the challenge; not from staring at them, but because they stick out so much. It gives her a weird hurt-box while she's moving, so short-range weapons just plain whiff because you can't get close enough. I had to switch to Brigand Axe to hit her consistently, and even that whiffed during certain parts of her animation.

Yep, she can literally use her ass to defend against dagger builds.

>>
Figured out last night that if you use a shield and just strafe around him counter clockwise (to the right, his left), most of his attacks just go completely over you. Any other wide-arc attacks get absorbed by the shield and maybe hurt you about 5-10% tops. I have shit poise and never used shields until now.

Just do that and hit him a couple times at the end of his combos. Once he hits stage two, just kill his clone and then repeat the strafing.
>>
Was a pretty fun fight, I guess I got lucky because I beat him 3rd try.

Armour on the other hand is just completely wrecking my shit non-stop. I'm probably on about my 25th try at this point. I haven't even gotten him lower than 25%, he always ends up one shotting me.

It's really what makes the game great. Everyone is weaker at a certain aspect of the game, and different bosses punish different shortcomings.
For example, I killed Soul of Cinder first try but died to Crystal Sage five times. It's probably because I tend to play a bit too defensively, and he just kept flinging shit at me while I was turtling behind a shield like an idiot.
That's really good game design and shows how well-thought-out some of the bosses are.

You guys actually had trouble with it? I killed it first time. Unless you count me getting swarmed and raped by the fire wielding ambush things a death to the crystal sage, in which case I died once. I still didn't realise it was a boss though. It doesn't drop a soul or anything.

Also some other shit that really bugs me; I'm accidentally kicking a shit load and that never used to happen and inputs being stored when you're staggered/knocked down is a huge fucking pain in the balls.

3 really doesn't play as smooth as the previous games and it feels like a struggle to do shit a lot of the time.

You know using summons completely invalidates your opinion of any boss?

different people are good and bad at different things. this is like debating which Colossi from Shadow of the Colossus is the hardest, it comes down to personal ability and understanding of the game and controls.

>all this lying on an imageboard where everyone is anonymous
The only possible way anyone had beaten him first try is either they summoned, looked at a guide on the boss fight or is like SL 250 +. Literally kill yourselves nobody cares how many times it took you to beat a boss but don't be a lying faggot about it.
>>
>>334918789

Git gud. I'm being serious, just git gud. I beat that guy with Yhorm's Machete.

While this game is Bloodborne 1.5, you can still kill stuff with slow ass weapons, you just have to time your attacks and be aware that most of the time you can only get a single hit.

How often are people getting summon for Aldrich? I've been sitting with my thumb up my ass for 15 minutes and the fucking thing is still flashing.

It's not even playstyle, it can also be just exhaustion, moves blending together when you fight a boss to often in a row, or it just simply not clicking. When I first fought Lord of Cinder and Nameless King I got my ass handed to me countless times. Next day I beat Cinder on first try and Nameless on my second.
I had trouble with Abyss Watcher and Crystal Sage because I wasn't thinking at all and button mashing, next day the openings seemed so obvious I didn't understand how I could fuck them up
>>
>>334931748
I killed him first try with a Greataxe. I still don't know how his Stand phase works since I sorta went berserk and just started smashing his skull in. Turns out when you hunch over during the backswing of a Greataxe R1, he swings right over your head.

You're right actually I got my ass kicked 3 times with a Broadsword before I switched to the Greatsword +6.

I found I could kill his clone during it's spawn animation with a fully charged two handed R2 and a follow up R1. Once that's dead the rest of the fight is a joke.

Funny enough I found other similar bosses like THE CHAMP, Princes and Nameless King insanely hard with a slow weapon.

Not that guy, but I happened to have my flame resistant ring on from earlier encounters and was able to block most of his attacks. I lucked out and beat him probably

Though the Wyvern probably would have killed me if I hadn't read signs on the ground to be fair.

I beat it on my first try solo as well. Your baiting skills are horrible m8 1/10. Try harder nest time

Pontiff is griefng me right now. How do I progress further in the dungeon? I cleared the first two levels of the dungeon but now I can't figure out how to get further, there's no clear paths, just locked gates. I thought maybe a got a key past Pontiff but I didn't get a reply last thread.

Keep exploring, you must have missed some passages. You should eventually come out the other end.

Why do some faggots call you a casual for summoning but it is literally hard mode.

>Fight the boss 1v1
>The have a tiny HP pool and barely do any damage

>Summon 3 glorious bros
>Boss becomes an MMO boss with a trillion HP and buffed damage
>Have to coordinate with your bros
>Draw aggro so bros can catch a break

Fucking casual not summoning and playing easy mode.
>>
>>334918367
I think those gimmicky bosses help to mix it up a little, Bed of Chaos was just a shit gimmick, Ancient Wyvern was okay, but not great. Yhorm is a gimmick boss done right.
>>
>>334920676
You can parry him really easily when he goes into the spear mode, also you can literally parry his every attack in the second phase
>>
>>334922981
I don't think it was your weapon, I fought her with the Greatsword and beat her easily.
>>
>>334935435
Bosses aren't buffed like that. Their HP pool is doubled with 1 tripled with 2 and quadrupled with 3. Damage isn't affected because people's health bars are needed to make the fight harder.
>>
Dragonslayer armour was objectively the best fight in the entire game. all other boss fights done that whole gimicky second phase shit
>>
>>334937253
2nd phase shit is fucking great, you just don't like fun stuff. Nameless King is the best fight even if you took his first phase away anyway..

Wheres that picture of double D when I need it

Since you obviously haven't played the game I'll tell you how online for the first week for das3 was. It was utter shit there is no fucking way you summoned people and had the time to go through and beat the game in 6 hours. Do some research before you start spouting bullshit dumbass

>>334938451
Who said anything about the first week? I only got the game 2 days ago and flew through it with probably 2 deaths.

I was expecting it to be a lot harder after reading all the threads but it was easy as piss.
>>
>>334938597
You do know the shields aren't the only things you can block with right?
>>
>>334913823
wait till you get to the dancer, or champion, or nameless king

>>334915530
>Regular Gundyr is harder than Champion Gundyr.
>Armour is the hardest boss in the game

What the fuck?
>>
>>334913823
Took me 5 tries. He was a challenge but nowhere near Nameless King. I can't really even say the two times i've played through i learned Pontiff's full patterns. So its hard to call him anything special. Just dodge around and wait for his opening and in phase 2 kill the clone and hes much easier then phase 1. He gives you so much free damage when he summons the stand and you can usually knock the thing down to 20% or even dead if you have a two handed weapon.
>>
>>334938669
The game came out 7 days ago fuck head. The problems are still present. Go kill yourself you attention seeking maggot
>>
>>334938753
He's 100% right on Iudex being harder and only shitters think otherwise. Go back to your dualwield Darkdrifts.

>>334938801
Not my problem you have 3rd world internet or had to cheat like a little bitch and got banned from online :^) I'll be here enjoying this easy game senpai
>>
>>334913823
got him on my first try, git gud scrub
>>
>>334938884
He's not though. If you didn't beat Iudex on your first try, you're fucking shit at these games.
>>
>>334939007
If you could beat Iudex and couldn't beat Champion you are complete trash.

It's literally the same boss with the hard part removed.
>>
>>334938968
Yeah I thinks it's obvious you have never played the game
>>
Nameless King is the only notable boss in this game. Soul of Cinders second phase has no fucking health and dies mad fast and Pontiff is alright. Aldritch might also be alittle difficult for the first playthrough until you understand the progression of the arrows and how the fight works.

Champion wasn't even hard you just roll around him and get free punishes. He also gives you so many openings to heal if you dodge one thing its insane. Oh also you could just bait his leap all day for a free punish.

I feel like the same can be said of Nameless although it can be alittle more inconsistent as he can do the fast air attack. If you run away from phase 2 and space it just right he will do the slow ass air strike most of the time and give you a free hit or two.
>>
>>334938968
Are you really this bad at lying anon? How sad

>>334939143
What the fuck was hard about Iudex's second form? He's big and slow with huge hit boxes.

He meant that you didn't play the game. Which he is right. From the looks of it everything you are saying is pure bullshit
>>
>>334939298
Exactly my point. He's an easy 2nd phase boss with an even easier 1st phase. Take away that 2nd phase and all you're left with is the easier part.
>>
>>334939523
Name a single thing I said that proves I haven't played it.
>>
>>334939387
Nothing about Pontiff is artificial difficulty kill yourself. Artificial difficulty has become a meme to this point that shitters just use it to define anything that surpasses their bar of ability.

My friend who is a massive Fromdrone refers to games like Ninja Gaiden Black/2 as so despite having literally no argument other then its "silly amounts of difficulty". No its just something you can't handle kiddo.
>>
>>334939538
>It's literally the same boss with the hard part removed.

You literally just said his second form was hard you retarded shitter. You can't fucking come back from this trying to say you thought it was easy.
>>
>>334939743
Hard part of the boss, boss is still easy as a whole. It doesn't matter, the point is Champion is easier because the only thing that was remotely hard was that 2nd phase of Iudex.
>>
>>334939664
Yes because a boss attacking in an infinite loop with buffs and a gank mate is not artificially difficult

Why don't YOU kill yourself, fanboy?
>>
>>334913823
Step one, get a 100 block shield and pretty much you can block all his attacks in the first phase if you time correctly.

Step two , roll and attack the clone that is predictable as fuck and then attack the boss
>>
>>334939629
>who said anything about the first week I got the game 2 days ago.

Only reason it took me a few attempts to beat Abyss Watchers is because I used a pretty slow weapon, but even then it wasn't exactly a difficult bossfight compared to the likes of Pontiff
>>
>>334940078
Dodge
>>
>>334939937
They don't have the same moveset though. Did you even play the game? Champion has a kick attack in his first form that will catch players expecting a repeat of the same fight off guard, and his second form is an almost entirely new moveset.
>>
do you ever feel embarrassed for playing such a shit series like no one cool cares about your artificial difficulty grim dark generic fantasy button masher

The game has been out for a week. The problems have been happening since launch. Yes you got it 2 days ago but there is problems that haven't been fixed. Is it that hard to understand that you are acting like a kid? The other fag was talking about the release date and how patches didn't fix these problems yet you keep going on about when you got the game, which doesn't matter since the problems still exist
>>
>>334940648
Is it that hard to just admit that he's not simply Iudex minus the second form, and you're fucking wrong?

Did it second try first time was using all healing items to get used to his attack patterns. And his second phase was easy shit.

>>334939970
>Clone always repeats what he does
>The boss is alot less aggressive in Phase 2
>Can get a free giant chunk and almost kill the clone everytime its summoned.

Your argument literally only implies to the first time someone fights him and they can't possibly know these things. But once they do hes not a hard fight.
