Does anybody here know the nigger that thought of Pontiff?
Everything about it is artificial difficulty. Skill not required, only luck.
"Hey guys, I just made this boss. He spams fire attacks for 1.4k and never stops ever because his stamina is infinite. Great idea, right?"
>>335081083
no OP, in truth every boss is easily defeated with some skillful moves (which of course involves healing at the right times). basically you suck, git gud

Found the schill.
>>335081642
your incompetence has something to do with my liking of the game? you're the one that started the thread faggot
>>335081289
This desu senpai
>>335081927
Not OP but wow. You went from schill to faggot. How retarded are you? Can I find a doctor report of you online?
>>335082812

I did this guy in like 4 tries in offline mode on my Faith build character, learn to time your rolls and git gud you fucking monkey
>>335083492
Lol a faith build? Why did you even start playing by going straight to easy mode? Holy shit man. I've seen seen some autism on this board but you reached a new level.
>>335083665
explain to me how having a faith build helps on this boss, if you can stop spewing shit for 30 seconds or so.
>>335081083
Aldrich was more bullshit than this guy.
if you can dodge or have a shield with 100% physical and high fire resist, this dude isn't hard.
>>335081083
Generally I only use a shield if I feel like I need to for a boss, but I decided that this guy merited one. Get yourself a fast right hand weapon, equip a 100% shield, and strafe. 2nd phase isn't all that hard once you realize that his attacks slow down and are easier to dodge. because the phantom telegraphs them.

Did you miss the memo where magic doesn't even fucking scale until 50+? Did you also miss all the endless shitposting about longswords in the past 2 weeks?
How eager are you to shitpost, because you're 100% wrong.

>>335083776
Didn't think so.

Currently getting my shit stomped in by dancer though.

I'm really bad at games of the video and I could do it, I'm sure an expert play such as yourself can, too.This is how bad I am: took me way more deaths at Abyss Watchers,and I'm still fighting Aldrich after 5 or 6 tries, even though I can tell it's telegraphed as hell.
OP here. Just solo'd him without ember. What an awesome fight. I'm so relieved.
