Prove me wrong
Soul of fanservice was piss easy.
>>336117975
Why make this thread
It's 90% opinion because everyone plays a bit different and will have difficulty at different places
also you attract shitposters like >>336118361 here
Do you want the oncoming shit storm or what?
Actually hard:
Nameless King
Not really that hard but took more than two tries:
Soul of Cinder
Aldritch
First or second try:
Every other boss
Nameless King is the only genuinely challenging boss in this one
>>336117975
VERY
HARD
BOSS
>>336117975
Nah, they weren't bad. Pontiff Sully and the Dancer were notably harder.
Red Carthas ring is the only reason I beat that fuck
>>336118754
>Pontiff
>Dancer
>Hard
Get a load of this guy
I found the Dancer the hardest. SoC was my favourite though.
>>336118878
>thinks nameless idiot and the joke of a last boss were hard
>somehow tries to act superior to anyone
I am laffin
>>336118754
Claiming that Pontiff was hard is just saying "I didn't play Bloodborne"
>>336118761
Only if you panic roll like a retard. Seriously, just wait half a second between each roll and let him finish his combos before you go to attack. He's nowhere near as hard as everyone makes him out to be.
if DaS3 wasn't your first soulds game you would know every player finds different bosses easier than others
>>336118947
>Didn't beat Pontiff on his first attempt but tries to tell other people what bosses are hard
GET A LOAD OF THIS GUY
>>336117975
how is last boss hard?
Easy to roll easy to block plenty of openings. beat first try.
Nameless was probs the hardest boss in the game but i still beat him solo unembered and with most my heals.
>Haven't played games like this in years and years
>only player mobas and fps.
>die 8 times to the first boss.
Hold me /v/
>>336118746
I'm assuming he's using a straight sword with high critical. Lothric Knight sword?
>>336118960
I did play bloodborne. Good times, the setting is the best in the series. Pontiff, Dancer, and Gundyr are the only challenging bosses in DaS3.
>>336119121
I find it hard to believe that you could beat Bloodborne and not find Pontiff utterly trivial.
>>336119058
I beat Nameless on my second and Souls on my first. Seems you are worse than me, chumpster.
>>336119114
its a vroadsword
>>336117975
Replace Watchers with Sully and I agree
>>336119184
I find it hard to believe you can find the Nameless Joke hard and not Pontiff.
>>336119187
>Still thinking Pontiff wasn't mindlessly easy
Your opinion continues to be irrelevant.
nameless king and lorian were the only bosses that took me more than 2 tries
>>336118746
>broadsword
yeah, straight swords fuck him up
>>336119278
Your so fucking cool and good
Nameless King was the only boss that took more than three tries and Aldritch was the only one that took me more than two.
>recycle character moves, boss movesets and rehash the music from a game that came out 5 years ago
>OMG SO GOOD SO HARD OMG OMG CINDER BEST BOSS EVER
Its funny how easy you faggots are to impress.
>>336119265
I like how that's the best you can come up with. Still doesn't mean anything considering you thinknow Nameless is hard at all. Kill bird, then laugh as he slowly misses you over and over. Man, such challenge. Pontiff is the hardest in the game, I'm sorry you are an idiot.
>>336119217
>Watchers
That's not the watchers
>>336119349
Maybe you are just an asshole?
>>336119363
>Pontiff is the hardest in the game
How can you be this bad? You are a massive scrub that cannot dodge for shit and you don't know shit. Kindly stop trying to have an opinion on difficulty you massive scrub.
>>336118878
try them with maracas and shitpost again feggit.
you probably used some 2 handed str weapon with hyper armour or plebstoc.
>>336119503
How am I bad if I consider the hardest bosses hilariously easy?
>>336119368
Fuck me I'm blind.
Even more reasons to change it. Soul of cinder, Wolnir and Ocerius were the only bosses that I've killed on first try.
I was so disappointed I didn't die to Soul of Cinder because I didn't get a "feel" for the boss. I then spent 2 hours getting summoned for him until I've had enough of him.
>>336117975
>Beat most bosses in under 2 tries
>beat Cinder in 3
>Nameless King's second phase kills me an uncountable amount of times
I don't understand why they didn't give the hardest boss an NPC summon, it would've been the only time one would be useful.
>>336119667
You consider the easiest bosses hard and you're acting like an authority on difficulty. You're so silly anon.
>>336119421
Whatever you say drone.
I bet you think Cinders moveset was difficult or special too.
>>336119503
>anon calls a boss hard
>someone tells him the boss is easy
>anon proceeds to call other guy bad at the game
Only a souls fag could be this retarded.
>>336119821
You are bad at the game if you consider Pontiff hard though.
I only died to one boss on my first play through and that was the tree of all things. Died about 10 times overall on my first playthrough. These games are quite entertaining but mindlessly easy if you aren't a shitbrain.
>>336119821
Sulyvahn is not hard though
>>336119747
How is pontiff the easiest when Deacons, The Tree, and both dragons exist? Or did you find them to be hard too?
Poor anon. You will never not be shit at Dark Souls.
Pontiff is only hard if you're a shield scrub. Anyone that beat Bloodborne should have no trouble with him, he's about Cleric Beast level of difficulty.
>>336119892
>>336119972
But you people are trying to say a boss he finds easy is hard. Is that not literally the same shit? He has just as much right to call you shit.
Pontiff is the only one who's given me a lot of trouble so far. I just recently beat Champ.
Pontiff took me so many tries to get down, but now he's really easy for me.
>>336119987
He's on their level of difficulty. If you don't get them first try you should get them on the second.
>>336120031
He's not even close to Cleric beast. In fact I can't think of a harder boss in the Bloodborne main game
>>336119892
You are bad at the game if you consider ANY boss to be hard. The only boss in the series that could be considered even somewhat challenging is OOK from Bloodborne and even that was pretty simple and shouldn't take more than 3 attempts to kill. I can't believe how awful most of you are at playing games. Laughable, pitiful, unforgivable.
So we all agree this guy is Gywns first born right?
>>336120072
I didn't say any of the bosses in this game were hard
>>336120031
You see the thing is, you don't have dashes that are quicker than rolls with more i frames along with 24 insta heals. Again not saying pontiff is hard or that your wrong but the mechanics are different and people could have trouble if they didn't stay back the whole time and tried rolling all the attacks.
>>336120137
No, nameless king and soul of Cinder are as easy as them. Pontiff and Dancer are the only hard ones.
I thought Pontiff was the most difficult boss personally, easily the most aggressive with the fewest openings. I don't really understand why Nameless King has the reputation he does, he just has delayed timing on a few of his attacks. Otherwise he spends plenty of time walking towards you slowly so you can heal or whatever else you want to do.
>>336120149
>OOK
>Hard
Literally first try
Ludwig was reasonably challenging though.
>>336120141
I'm crying here. If you didn't kill Cleric Beast on your first attempt you should probably check that you weren't lobotomised at birth.
I'm amazed that people consider Pontiff hard. I beat him first try on all three playthroughs I've done so far.
Dancer and Nameless are moderately challenging but Pontiff is a joke.
>>336120282
Who do you think is the hardest in the series? This should be hilarious.
These threads are utterly pathetic and everyone who posts in them regularly should be ashamed of themselves.
>>336120383
Moonlight Butterfly
>>336120374
The fact that you think nameless is hard at all shows that you never fought him, and you are simply lying on the internet.
>>336120251
>Dancer
Did you try dodging into the attacks
>>336120282
But I killed cleric beat in my first attempt. Did you even read my post? i'm not the one claiming cleric beast is hard here.
>>336120383
Hardest in the series? The three hunters you meet in the cathederal where all the bell-ringing woman are in Bloodborne. If you fight them all at the same time. None of the bosses are even remotely difficult.
On note of something they did for a few bosses in this game, what is the point of giving a boss a health bar if they just get a second full one straight away after its empty?
>>336120452
I don't consider him hard. I consider him "moderately challenging".
As in I had to actually try and didn't beat him first attempt.
>>336120517
I beat her fine, took about 4 deaths. I didn't say they were unbeatable, just the hardest in a game of easy bosses. How did you have any trouble with Nameless when he is just a slow, small, easy version of Pontiff and Dragonslayer Amror? Nameless is just so fucking easy.
>>336120546
>If you fight them all at the same time.
Dont do that
>>336120546
Except they weren't hard at all. What a fucking baddy.
>>336120589
If there's a clear phase transition. It made sense for Nameless and Soul, but it was a little redundant for Lothric.
>>336120723
Pontiff is the same way, just more aggressive, can't be hit with a riposte that does double critical damage after a stagger, and with fewer openings. You are literally claiming he is hard because you don't know what you are doing. The definition of a scrub.
>>336120636
>the boss that idly strolls around the room for no reason giving the player plenty time to recover and dodge attacks is harder than the boss that attacks relentlessly without break
namneless king isnt hard. He just fucks with your camera a lot in his first phase. Once hes in phase 2 hes more easy which leaves me to believe that if his entire fight didnt include his bird dragon, everyone wouldnt think he was a hard boss.
All this shit about people taking 2 tries to beat bosses. I took maybe 30 tries to beat the Abyss Watchers and Champion Gundyr on my first playthrough and I've beaten the game twice now. Those were the only two bosses I got stuck on but apparently taking more than 10 tries on a boss is unheard of.
>>336120868
But that is just plain wrong though, did you even play the game?
>>336121106
Bird Phase is trivial. Once he's on the ground though he just spams lingering attacks that OHKO you and randomly delays the timing to fuck with your dodges.
>>336121108
I've have bosses in Souls games that took me hours, nothing in DaS3 took me more than 5 tries though.
>>336121106
The fucking camera was ridiculous in that fight, the lock on automatically turning off annoyed me a lot throughout the entire game now that I think on it.
>>336120972
>>336121162
Nameless doesn't relentlessly attack, and pontiff does. Did you even play the game? Is this some epic new meme?
>>336117975
Nameless or Orphan, which is harder?
>>336121108
It's okay, I'm with you, man. Just keep in mind for every guy who lies about beating ds3 in a single try with no deaths and using the estus flask exactly once, there's hundreds of us who take at least 10+ tries for every boss.
>>336121473
Nameless has actually managed to kill me so Nameless.
Pontiff was harder than NK imo
Lothric Princes are about equal
>>336121340
>pontiff does
Except he doesn't. If you circle strafe he doesn't hit you either.
>>336119349
>recycle character moves and boss movesets

>>336117975
Sad that most of the bosses of Dark Souls 3, in addition to being easy, are just shitty looking.
Like, seriously, I would not have minded bosses like Crystal Sage being piss easy if they were actually visually awesome looking.
I love Pinwheel's visual design, even though he's piss easy. Same with Demon of Song. Easy boss, beautiful visuals.
But the easy bosses of Dark Souls 3 all look like shit.
Even the good bosses are just visual homages to older bosses, similar to how Abyss Watchers looks like Artorias, or how Nameless King is Gwyn with spiky '80s glam metal hair.
>>336121878
>demon of song
>beautiful visuals
you're high
>>336121473
They're about equal.
>>336121620
I honestly didn't take more than 4 tries for any bossbecause I summoned some sun bros after failing the 3rd
>>336121878
I felt the opposite, even though most of the bosses were easy I was just glad they were all interesting unlike Dark Souls 2.
>>336121878
>Wolnir
>Greatwood
>shitty looking
I can't wait for this game to be a few years old already so this type of obvious shitposting stops
>>336121952
It's got a dark beauty to it the way Darkbeast Paarl does.
It's not beautiful in the traditional sense that a swimsuit model is beautiful, but it's beautiful in its own unique way.
>>336122062
I disagree, demon of song is total trash.
>PCuCKS HAVE TO DEAL WITH A SWORD THAT LITERALLY BANS PEOPLE
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I panicked so hard against Nameless King that I experimented with a couple of weapons outside my build.
Tried using Dragonslayer Greatbow, Avelyn, Yhorm's Great Machete, even resorted to Kukris (lmao)
My main weapon was the BKGS.
>>336121340
>Matyr Logarius 2.0
>hard
>>336119719
there is a NPC close to the bonfire, bro
>>336122062
Demon of Song was the only DaS2 boss I kinda liked and that was really only because of the homage to pic related
>>336117975
I found Champion Gundyr and Pontiff to be harder than Nameless King.
Am I alone here? Champion never stops attacking, so aggressive. And Pontiffs attacks vary in timing so much, and shit gets really when the double comes out.
>>336122228
Logarius is much easier because your character can actually keep up with his speed
>>336122376
Champion's kicks occasionally catch me out but he's pretty predictable and doesn't have anything that fancy up his sleeve.
>>336121106
I agree with the King of Storms part. It somehow forces me to take more Estus than I intended.
I always get caught with the air-to-ground flamethrower attack and it makes me take a sippy.
>>336122376
>Champion
>Hard
You're just shit, that's all. He's as easy as Gwyn.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhMl01GsW9k
>>336122316
What really, do I need to do a questline for it to appear?
>>336119184
I played Bloodborne, it's my favorite. I thought Pontiff was pretty hard, he took me about 8 tries. His crazy combos were thrownig me off because I wasn't used to that kind of shit in Dark Souls and you don't cover the same amount of ground with a roll as you do with a dash in Bloodborne and he closes so much ground with his combos. Also his second form was hard for me, because it took me a few tries to figure out you could kill his phantom.
>>336122376
Champion I thought was easier than his first incarnation to be honest, his move set is much easier to dodge seeing as I could actually make out what was about to hit me. That massive blob phase in the first ever fight threw me more. Maybe it was just trying to get back into the games that stumped me more though, not sure.
>>336122718
Same, the black goo monster version gave me more trouble than Champion.
>>336122418
Logarius is only easy when you realize you can backstab before he charges up. Before I knew that, he killed me like 50 times at least.
>>336122718
>>336122792
And the black goo is only harder because of the camera.
Seriously, I can't tell half the time whether or not the blob is winding up an attack or just moving around.
Nothing in dark souls 3 is hard compared to this faggot. Fuck that ranged attack.
>>336122815
I honestly think it's bullshit that his buffed form makes him invincible to bullets.
Like, if I knew that you could interrupt his buffing, then I would have beaten him so easily.
I assumed that because you couldn't interrupt the form changes of other bosses, you can't interrupt the form change of Logarius. I was wrong.
>>336122418
Logarius was the hardest boss for me.
>>336122934
It's absolute artificial difficulty that his throwing shotel attack can be thrown through pillars.
>>336122815
he's easier than pontiff even if you let him charge up. The two easy ways of dealing with him are :
1. immediately dodging behind him as soon as he gets in range. Every attack will miss, even the slower ones
2. Waiting for him to jump and simply punishing it with a few R1s, or a backstab if the positioning is right
the only trick up his sleeve is the sword planted in the ground, but once you know you can shoot it it's not a factor anymor
>>336122934
Beat him first try and never did chalice dungeons again after the first time through. Just seemed like a generic melee enemy, I rolled a bunch and hit him to death.
>>336122978
Yeah I know, but the reason it passes is because it's so easy to figure out. There isn't any reason we shouldn't have tried backstabbing him.except for me I missed the note telling you how to backstab and just assumed they weren't in the game
>>336122553
And NK is even easier
>>336117975
lord of cinder was tough but nowhere near as tough as nameless king
>>336118746
Why are fast weapons so overpowered in this game?
>>336123075
You're full of shit dude, Pontiff is not harder than charged up Logarius. At least for me, he took me hours and hours to beat on my first playthrough, Pontiff took me like 30-40 minutes.
Is the dragon rider riding the dragon that attacks you at the very beginning or is that the ancient wyvern?
Cause the dragon at the beginning is gone and I'm on the Lord of Cinders
>>336123158
>There isn't any reason we shouldn't have tried backstabbing him.
True, but he's pretty much the only exception in the game.
You can't interrupt Gehrman's form change. You can't interrupt Maria's form change. You can't interrupt Queen Yharnam's form change.
Logarius is the only humanoid boss you can interrupt while they're buffing towards their next form.
Deacons and Crystal sage

>>336118754
i guess i understand how scrubs like you say the pontiff is hard, even though the clone is extremely easy to kill quickly, but the dancer? seriously? she's slow as fuck and most of her attacks are very easily telegraphed. the only tough one to survive is when she does the thing where she spins over and and over in the second phase.
>>336123409
pimply erin friend :^)
>>336123331
Crystal Sage and Curse Rotted took me more tries that any other boss except for Nameless.
Nameless king is only "hard" in the first phase, because it's difficult to see what's he's doing while fighting the dragon. Unless you learn to recognize the audio cues, boom, you're gone in two hits. Fighting him on foot is a joke. Guess we know now why he sided with the dragons.
>>336123472
>Spot the wind up
>Sprint in the opposite direction and don't stop
The only issue with the beyblade spin is if your back is near a wall when it starts.
>>336123409
>logarius

>>336123265
Well I had the exact opposite experience. Logarius took me like 20 minutes while Pontiff killed me at least 10 times. Maybe people play the game differently. Strange huh
>>336123524
Seriously? I found the dragon phase to be a joke that I never died to even once but it took me about 2 hours to beat him on foot.
>Nameless king
>Challenging
Kek. I bet you lock on and stay in front of his dragon's head and blame the shitty camera afterwards.
Fucking retards.
>>336123684
You must be pretty bad, he's easier and less relentless than Pontiff
>>336123610
I find it easier not locking on
>>336123728
You must be pretty bad if you though the dragon was tough. Beat Pontiff first try too.
>>336123609
Not who you were replying to but it seems a lot of people forget about sprinting when in combat, that's what I feel from trying pvp at least. They spend all there stamina trying to roll for invincibility frames instead of just getting out other way fast.
>>336120127
pontiff becomes easy shit when you realize he's so tall he can't hit you if you stay glued to his left side
>>336123830
If you beat Pontiff first try then you should have beaten NK first try, he's easier
>>336123523
Guessing you went mainly int early build?
>>336118746
>only shows the end of a webm he didn't make
It must have been a hard boss since you never fought it and just posted that webm. Well meme'd
>>336123710
I believe everyone is talking about after the King of the Storms phase, when his name actually appears as Nameless King.
>>336120251
Why do people find the dancer to be so hard? Her attacks are very slow and you can very easily dodge her spinning attack. You literally just run backwards and she very slowly tries to reach you while spinning. Her grab attacks takes too long to land too, you can see it a mile away. The rest of her attacks are easy to dodge because they're either slow or she's so tall she'll miss you just like Pontiff
>>336123865
He literally isn't
>>336124019
He is, he has more openings and by the time you get to NK you have at least a +9 if not +10
>>336123710
Is it completely unheard of for people to expect things to work as intended? The lock on does straight up fuck you over by disabling mid combat.
>>336123939
Then my point still stands.
He is slow as fuck and doesn't attack as relentless as the champ or sulyvan.
>>336123865
Nah, Pontiff is incredibly easy to dodge, has barely any life and gives plenty of opportunities to heal.
Nameless is relentless and has massive hitboxes on all of his attacks, and he has plenty of ranged and dash moves to punish healing.
Nameless is way more relentless than Pontiff, has a more varied moveset than Pontiff, has viable ranged attacks unlike Pontiff, deals way more damage than Pontiff, has way more health and Pontiff and is generally harder to dodge.
Pontiff is about on the level of Blood Sucking Beast from Bloodborne.
>>336123684
No I mean, the dragon is not hard, though he's annoying to try to hit. He also obscures the camera a lot giving NK free hits.
>>336121340
>pontiff does
Not really. Pontiff stays idle for a long time after his combos, especially after his clone comes out. Nameless hardly gives you any time to chug an estus at any time.
>>336124181
>Nameless is relentles
No he isn't, he has more openings in his normal attack sequences than Pontiff.
>>336123965
This. Fought dancer immediately after Aldrich and still beat her.
>>336124097
>he has more openings
[citation needed]
>>336124287
I actually played the game unlike you
In fact I played through the whole game thrice by now
>>336124224
Pontiff has spammy combos but regularly takes breaks. Nameless just never stops attacking and just when you think you've got the distance and window to heal he dashes across half the stage to punish you and then shits out AoE magic everywhere.
>>336124242
She's so slow I actually managed to use a Homeward Bone to spend my souls before trying her.
>>336124414
But this is simply not true. He stops frequently, just eyeing you as you circle around each other.
He even breaks down once or multiple times for a free riposte
>>336124112
>The lock on does straight up fuck you over by disabling mid combat
Then don't use lock-on at all. Rotating camera manually gives much better orientation for this fight.
How is that so hard to figure out?
>>336124224
>>336124414
The differences that I found between both is that Pontiff has relentless combos and then takes a long break. Nameless only takes small brakes, which makes it hard to use an estus, and is almost constantly attacking but his attacks are much slower than Pontiff's.
>>336124307
>I actually played the game unlike you
Are you sure? It doesn't seem like it
>>336123684
>>336124197
And on foot, just roll his horizontal swings two or three times, his vertical had a bit if a delay but it's easy to just roll behind him. His thrusts are kinda bullshit cause they have the same start up and you don't know if it's gonna be instant or delayed, and his jumping attacks you could dodge blind. And if he buffs his weapon, fuckubg spam R1. Really, he's only dangerous cause he hits like a truck and have to do the fight from the very beggining if you lose. What the hell, we see him physically destroy the dragon. Also, if he could fly by himself, why use a mount?
>>336124603
>Also, if he could fly by himself, why use a mount?
For defense and to preserve his energy
How many bosses can be parried like gundyr?
>>336124213
It must be the positioning for some of us.
I also found the Pontiff particularly difficult because I rarely had chance to attack much, though I did use a big slow weapon instead of a sword. Nameless King was only partially difficult because I kept mistiming those rolls and because the camera sucks donkey balls during the stormdrake fight.
>>336124837
If you're referring to parryable but not riposte, only Souls of cinder, Watchers of abyss and Lorian as far as I know.
>Can beat all but one boss with minimal tries
>Nameless King continues to fuck me over unless I use a straight sword
That fucker literally gives me no breathing space , at least with a straight sword I can try stagger him without running the risk of getting hit when trying to get an extra swipe in.
Sully's attacks don't do near the same damage so I can risk getting hit, he's so much simpler.
>>336125089
You can riposte abyss watcher in both phases.
The real issue is almost none of the bosses in Dark Souls 3 are actually challenging. Most bosses are all flash no substance. Best example is the abyss watchers, its just back stab city even when they merge into one guy.
Due to every boss having a second phase type deal where they get stronger, the best way to fight them is to just play it safe at the half health zone.
The game also suffers from the areas around the boss being harder than the fight itself. Pontiff is a parry machine, but those fucking gay ass knights when the massive combos get me every time on the way to him.
The Nameless Camera is the hardest fight in the game because the dragon phase is garbage.
>>336125523
this tbqh fampai
>>336124514
Saying not to use something isn't exactly a defense for why it's so bad. The lock on is supposed to be there so I can easily keep track of enemies, what the hell else would it be for if not to follow a dragon in flight?

No, just Nameless King.

It's the logical choice.

the game is just fucking easy
bloodborne is way harder
You know how all these kinds of third person games could fix their "camera is the real boss" problems?
If they would just stop being lazy and allow the camera to phase through walls and the floor, then competently implement a partial transparency to only the surface that the camera needs to see through. The second part needs to be pretty smart with what becomes transparent so that the player can always tell where he is walking and if there is ground to stand on as well as showing where the stage floor hazards are. Same thing needs to apply to enemies whose bodies will block the camera with only a portion of their body going transparent.
A lot of bosses are huge and you're always looking upwards at them, but because the camera can never go lower than the floor shit gets wacky all the time and you can never look at anything properly without going lockless.

I played throuh the whole game with the Great Machete as soon as i got it and the only bosses that took more than 1 try were Pontiff and Nameless King which both took two tries. I mean, i'm used to playing souls games at this point, but still. The game wasn't any harder or easier than other souls game once you're used to the controls and how souls games work
>>336128321
This becomes infinitely harder when you start trying to implement it. (If it was as easy as "stop being lazy," it wouldn't be a problem that still needed solving).
Consider the issue of overdraw, which is ONE problem that needs to be handled before your solution can be used. Short version if you don't already know: It's expensive to draw lots of overlapping transparent stuff, because the computer can't take shortcuts by skipping parts of objects that are already behind the closest objects, and it breaks some assumptions about the ideal-case that the graphics pipeline is targeting. Overdraw can add unexpectedly huge costs when there are are a few transparent things near the camera - remember all the games that slow to a crawl when you walk through the smoke particles.
Now consider the potential cost of applying this to any group of objects in the game at any time. It COULD be done, but it would involve reducing the rendering quality of everything else in order to leave enough performance headroom for the cases where your viewpoint is looking through ten different transparent surfaces.

TL;DR: Wait for distance field rendering to become the standard for 3D vidya. It's way easier there
Yeah, Nameless king is probably the hardest in DS3, but Cinder was really easy.

>Why make this thread?
For idiots like you who can't turn away from something they don't like.
>>336117975
boss is slow as fuck and easy to dodge. even the gimmick dragon shit boss took me more tries because of trial and error.

>abusing estoc WAAAH
Next thing you know you're gonna say i'm abusing the use of estus. Fucking DS3 babbies holy shit.
There is literally no reason to fight a boss with anything other than a straight sword in this game, you are intentionally gimping yourself. They need to increase the damage of every other weapon class because the DPS of straight swords is too damn high
Why the fuck does my straight sword do almost as much damage as my UGS
>>336117975
Psssh, please this boss fight was harder than anything in Souls
>>336118746
top kek
Nameless King is pretty easy. You can even hit him with critical attacks, so no, not really challenging.
>>336121959
Nah, just nah. Orphan is actually tough to land hits on at times when you're helping someone in coop when the second half of the fight starts.
Nameless is a big dumb oaf by comparison. I must have cooped Nameless 100 times by now. I would never even WANT to do that with Orphan
>fighting Nameless in coop
>everyone is slashing at the wyvern feet
>>336119349
And this is a rehash post fuck off inbreed faggot.
>>336117975
He's not that hard
Champion Gundyr requires more focus.

Pontiff's telegraphs arent as set in stone as NK.
I assume your BB argument is "i parried to win"
that's so boring.
>>336118754
Dancer isnt that tough, just boring.
>Sword slash
>Sword slash
>Sword slash
by far the least interesting boss in the game.
the champ, now thats a tough fight
>>336119719
Champion Gundyr has an NPC summon though
>>336117975
Nameless King wasn't that hard imo. He, Abyss Watchers, and Pontiff were the best bosses though.
>>336119184
Pontiff was the hardest boss for me the first go round and I've beaten BB like 10 times.
Problem is I tried to use a shield and lucerne. When I realized there is no point to using anything but straight swords unless you enjoy death, things became much easier. Also I began to roll again.
>>336120252
because as a str build user he is pure luck.
It's pure rng if he stops his combo and lets me hit him or not and if I don't attack ASAP then the next combo hits me.
I imagine the boss is easy as fuck if you have a sword/faster weapon. But the boss is 90% luck with 2h weps
>>336122934
I've died to this enemy so many times that now I can beat him with my eyes closed. It's all about the parrying
lol look at all the posers claiming they beat x,y, and z boss on the first try. I no life'd this fucking game and beat it the day it came out, and died +3 times to just about every boss. One or two happened on the first try, but greatshields (or shields at all) don't count.
>>336117975
Literally one of the easiest. Super easy to read moveset. Champion Gundyr is more difficult, git gud.
>>336136443
Don't worry about it, people here seem to feel the need to anonymously brag about shit that doesn't matter
>>336136443
>look at these people trying to show off
>now look at me showing off
epic tard.
>>336135794
The pontiff fight actually become very easy when I used a shield instead of relying solely on rolls
>>336136443
I don't see the problems, most of the bosses are actually really easy if you've played the other soulsgames before and if you're even remotely good at them
>>336125089
Also Pontiff.
Thanks, I didn't know that Lorian could be parried.
