Hi, I'm the hardest boss in the entire Souls series.
somebody post the pasta
>being bad
>>334871676
OP have you considered increasing your skill level?
>>334871676
>Not even the hardest boss in his own game
>>334871736
there's a pasta?
casuals really do think DaS3 is better than BB
>>334871676
>Anything but Pikachu and Snorlax
Ultra contrarian in this thread.
He is pretty easy if you use a bow.
>>334871890
Hell, I'm a casual and I think BB is better than DaS3
>>334871676
Nameless King is harder.
But that's wrong
>>334871890
>BB being anything above DaS
>chalice dungeons
>no weapons
>no magic
>easy heals
>19fps
Enough of your meme consolekid
>Suddenly a Yhorm appears
>Go toe to toe with this thick fuck for an hour or so
>Dodging every attack
>Doing double digit damage with every swing with an ultra greatsword
>Eventually get greedy and die multiple times
>Bitch out and look up the strat
>It's a fucking gimmick boss the entire time
>this great war between me and this dick ends within minutes because LOLSTORM
Holy shit I dont know if I should be pissed off or disappointed. That fight was pretty solid up until I held L2 four times.
>>334871676
Except he's one of the easiest bosses, you fucking casual. It took me 3 tries, 13 minutes total
>>334872173
>no weapons
Compared to 20 straight swords with the same moveset but different attack value? Bloodborne got more variety of weapons.
>>334871676
>mfw i can't remember any of the boss themes because i beat every boss on my first try except for Nameless King which took two tries
Can anyone help me with Aldrich? :( i can get him super low, i just need a little extra help
>>334871890
Bloodborne has some of shittiest designed enemies in series, and somehow From thought they were well designed and put them in Dark 3 as well, bringing the game down
Is there anything you'd call outright unfair in DS3 like the dragon bridge in DS1 or the shrine of amana in ds2?
>>334871676
Pontiff is hard? even if you don't use the buckler strats that guy doesn't compare to fucking shrimpadoo or twin sharks from Bloodborne which is considered by speedrunner to have the most inconsistent RNG move set among the FROM bosses. Even Oceiros is much harder than Pontiff.
>>334872670
Which lvl? Which platform?
>>334871676
died more against the dancer than this guy. git gud
>>334872424
You're pretty dumb, aren't you?
>>334872782
No, which isn't really bad. The game is pretty easy, but only because i played all the other Souls games and because it's actually balanced compared to shit like the Ancient Dragon in DS2
>>334871890
level variety in BB is dogshit. hope you like yharnam, because that's where half of the game takes place
>>334871890
why do BBfags have to shitpost on every souls thread
you fags also get mad when someone prefers a souls game over BB
>>334872828
He's just trying to discreetly turn this into a trap thread. Don't fall for it.
>>334872782
Jailers in Irithyll dungeons
>>334871676
>mfw getting drunk is the secret to success against Dark Souls bosses
>>334873045
He is fighting Aldritch though
>>334873142
Drunk on what?
>>334873043
its cus after das3 never ever meme became irrelevant
>>334871676
How do you defeat this gay fuccboi?
The window to roll/dodge out of his attacks is literally in the microsecond time range. Am I supposed to roll sorcerer and run around casting shit?
>>334873196
despair
>>334873223
Just stay behind him, he can't even connect with half of his attacks
>>334873223
he got high resistance to magic btw
>>334872141
>massively telegraphed attacks with two opponents
-or-
>relentless although pretty telegrpahed attacks from two opponents, one one which has barely any health
second one is harder imo
>>334872715
I liked a lot of the enemies actually
Most of the zones were very unappealing visually though...
I feel like DaS3 has much fewer opportunities to use power attacks than BB, maybe the enemies are more aggressive?
>>334873312
I'll try this next, if I can get behind him
>>334872173
>DaS3.
>95%+ weapons have shitty moves.
>Some weapons completely useless 1-handed or two-handed.
>No instant stance swap.
>95%+ weapons have shitty arts.
>Shitty underwater-tier movement.
>Catalysts (kek) instead of superior beltcasting.
>Shitty canned BS auto-sensing QTE shit.
>PvP infinites.
>This game being better than anything.
It's shit m8
What the fuck does "Heal the Dark Sigil" mean? Why why is it so fucking expensive?
>>334872424
never played DeS, did you?
>>334871676
Oh good that's the Pontiff, I thought it was Aldritch for a second. Now I can't laugh at you.
>>334873403
>I feel like DaS3 has much fewer opportunities to use power attacks than BB, maybe the enemies are more aggressive?
You could probably use charged R2s on most enemies, it's just significantly more effective to spam R1 in any situation where you have the time to fully charge up
>pull out crest shield
>primarily rely on dodge
>any dodges you fuck up the crest shield will catch (that no telegraph poke he does)
>don't be retarded
>>334871676
Why is Pontiff Sulyvahn so cute?
You'll avoid most of his attacks if you roll to his left. Make sure you bumrush his illusion when that shows up.
>>334873487
dark sigil makes you go hollow if you die enough
it's also required for one of the endings
>>334873487
makes you not an ugly zombie anymore, ever
>>334871890
No, that's correct
BB is
>shorter
>easier bosses
>linear as fuck
>everything drops in quality after Vicar Amelia and never recovers
>chalice dungeons are grindy unfun pieces of shit, even with friends. Getting the correct ingredients is more challenging than shit like the pthumerian darkbeast
DLC was good though, but the archives and fishing hamlet are both "that place" tier
>>334872013
Because you're casual
>>334872424
>implying the Yhorm fight wasnt awesome
its atmospheric as fuck, especially with seig
why do devs insist on adding shitty tomb raider like gameplay to games like this ?
if you played tomb raider on the ps1 you know what I'm talking about
I hate this more than anything else in games. Having to do precise jumps is just so fucking lame.
I played until that elevator where you meet onionbro, I go up there, make peace with the giant, go back and I hear him midway through the elevator ride. I go up again, go down, trying to see if there is anywhere I can jump, and of course I missed the fucking thing by an inch, dead.
I had a taste of the tree boss too, it could have been great but having to constantly roll around or move your camera up to see whats hes doing isnt fun.
I dont know maybe the magic is gone.
I got bored real quick and dont feel like trying weapons other than estoc and longsword.
I wanted the claymore and fired 99 arrows at the dragon but he didnt leave.
everything sucks
>>334873592
>>334873610
Isn't here a statue in the sewers that does the exact same thing for less? Or hell, one of the shopkeeps sells a stone the reduces hollowfication.
>>334873360
I beat him with magic, it's not that bad. Do get the Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring first, though.
>>334871676
>hard
top kek, I beat him first try
This boss would have been the best boss if notfor that doppelganger bullshit.. WHY?! WHY DID THEY DO THAT SHIT.
>>334873687
you think thats bullshit try the jump at the profaned capital
I guess its not that had of a jump but if you fuck up you fall into a swamp where these grotesque insect things try to rape you
>>334871676
>Literal Logarius rehash but with two swords instead of a scythe and sword.
Gee Pon-Pon, How come Miyamami let's you have TWO swords?
>>334873708
The item only brings your hollowing points to 0 and make you look human, if you die they stack up again.
Also the fire keeper is closer.
>>334873817
you don't have to jump it... just zigzag through the corridors
>>334873817
you don't have to do that jump. You can just walk around it, to the left. The crystal lizard even waits patiently for you to get to him.
>>334873801
Oh no, now boss telegraphs his attacks for like a hopping two seconds, what ever shall I do?
>>334872782
Ambush zones at almost every turn and that almost every single chest in the second half of the game is a mimic.
Also fighting those giant demon things in farron keep. Spinning attacks from large enemies are also bullshit because you can't reliably dodge every single hit (winged knights and dancer).
Can get one shotted as a phantom in any late game boss no matter your VIG.
Dogs.
>>334873658
N-no you
>>334872141
THIS
>>334873937
>>334873898
WHAT THE FUCK
>>334873535
>something taps your shield in DS3
OH NO MY GUARD HATH SHATTEREHED! I beseech thee to refrain from riposting moi.
>there are people in this very thread who died to vordt
Am I the only guy who struggled with the fucking nameless king?
>>334873972
Dogs are actually the tamest they've ever been, as long as they don't get mixed with other enemies
>>334873498
Not him, but i've played DeS and i ended up killing Yhorm by attacking his arms when i realised it did more damage and would stagger him allowing for a riposte attack.
>>334871736
>>334871868
>>334871676
>From his chamber in Shit City
>Pontiff Sulyvahn: MMMM YEAH OOOH BABBY *masturbates to invisible hitboxes and untelegraphed moves* GOD I'M SO FUCKING HARD RIGHT NOW *reaches into asshole like he reaches across the room* MMM YEAH LET ME MASTURBATE WITH THIS SHIT AND EAT IT MMM YEAH TASTY CHOCOLATE
>Ashen one enters
>OOOOH DADDY WAS NEEDING SOME CUMMIES *leaps across the room and swings his sword in 3 nanoseconds instantly killing him* YEAH YOU FUCKED IN THE WRONG NEGHBORHOOD MMMM LET ME SNIFF YOUR HOLLOWED DICK MMMMMM YEAH BABY
IT'S NOT FAIR. WHY IS THIS FUCKER LITERALLY THE HARDEST THING IN THE GAME. I'M LEVEL 70 AND THIS GUY JUST FUCKING ONE SHOTS ME AND IT'S LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DODGE HIS MOVES BECAUSE OF HIS BULLSHIT LAGGING HITBOXES. HOLY SHIT IS THERE SOME WAY TO CHEESE THIS ASSMUNCH?
I'm stuck on the lothric prince boss
it teleports all over the place
that's unfair
>>334874051
>There are still people who don't realize people have trouble on some bosses while some have trouble on others
Come on anon, what bosses did YOU have trouble with?
>>334874284
there is literally no excuse for anyone to die on fucking vordt
>>334874130
Those fucking dogs in boreal valley fucked me up when I was ascending through those ranged magic fuckers. Seem they were much more aggressive than the other dogs in the game.
>>334874097
No, a lot of the faggots complaining about Watchers or Pontiff don't even know he exists.
>>334873196
Onion bro's booze.
>get summoned to help with a boss
>it's a t-pose episode
or
>it's a stuck outside the fog episode
Why is from's netcode such shit?
>>334873539
Sauce mother fucker
I first timed the dancer with a meme build and yet pontiff killed me 15 times in a row and I had to summon help
>>334874358
Answer the question.
>>334874097
Nameless King is considered the hardest boss in the game I think. I personally struggled with the Pontiff more though.
>>334874051
I know right? He's so fucking easy, i manged with only one summon. All you faggots that died need to git gud.
>>334874416
>when the boss t-poses
I mean, I guess thanks for the free win? Maybe?
>>334874284
none, because he gut gud at the game. pic related
>>334871890
>paying $460 to play a game
Nameless fucks me up because the timing on rolls is way less forgiving than other bosses.
>>334874187
Look at how retarded parrying is. You have to wait until they've pretty much hit you and then it retroactively stops the attack and parries it. Parrying is guess work in DS3.
>>334874187
Well you posted how to beat him. To be fair if you use the bloodring his moves are a lot easier to dodge.
>>334874187
holy fucking kek
>>334874187
>you can parry him
fucking hell
>>334874569
>using summons
Holy shit, just stop playing dark souls if you can't play it properly
>>334874407
Watchers is probably the easiest fight in the game. You're almost guaranteed to have NPCs tanking for you, even if you didn't summon, and in the second phase idiot sets your backstabs up for you, you just have to press the button
>tfw can't play any souls games because they remind me of my dad
>we used to play demons souls together all the time
>he passed away before he could finish his sl1 playthrough
i've thought about finishing it for him, carrying the torch so to speak.
seath is the hardest boss since nobody can kill him on their first try
>>334871676
Do people actually have trouble with him or is that just a great new meme?
Just hug his ass and hold up your shield. Same deal as asylum demon and lost sinner.
>>334874775
i'll bet u didn't even try to parry the 1st boss in the cemetary lol
>>334874569
I got summoned to the Dragonslayer Armour last night in a group like that. The host just ran around casting Bountiful Healing over and over, an interesting tactic.One phantom got blown off the roof and the host got crushed the second we lost aggro.
>>334874507
>summoned
If you had to summon on fucking Vordt just uninstall and break whatever system you're shitting on
>>334874682
The only guesswork in parrying is learning what can and can't be parried. Beyond "vaguely humanoid enemy with a weapon" there doesn't seem to be any pattern.
>>334874869
Some people's first game was das2, and don't know how to git gud
>>334874856
>forced death to invincible bosse in order progress = difficult
inb4 lol dont die.
not even the point seath is invincible in that arena

Is that how you "got gud"?

>Invade someone
>Can't find them to save my life

My only regret is that I didn't try finding a vantage point to rain arrows on them.

>dodge

>dodge dodge
>backstab
>charged r2

great fight honestly, if only for aesthetics
>>334874812
Do it nigga
Vordt's theme is the best boss theme in the game desu
>>334874869
using shields against any boss makes them trivial, try fighting him with no shield.
Friendly reminder that if you're specced with more than 15 Vigor (not counting bonus from Giant's Chain) you should uninstall the game.
>>334874187
>>334871736
>#IPlayDarkSouls because I'm a masochistic contrarian hipster. I like that Dark Souls is so different from other games. In Mario and Zelda, I can lose so many times and never care, but in Dark Souls I feel the pain of having wasted time training and retraining my muscle memory to dodge attacks just so I can stab a boss on the butt. It feels good to play like Solid Snake when I enter a new level, sneaking around each corner and holding up my guard all the time so the next trap might only bumb me and not throw me into orgasm. I enjoy feeling like a Speed Runner when I've memorized all the enemies' attack patterns and spawn points, running past everything at the speed of sound. I like the feeling of boasting to my coworkers that I'm a Hardcore Gamer with the achievements and receipts to prove it. I live the life of a true Chosen Undead, making it a point to bow emote before appoaching a heaving female. My life is dedicated to completing Challenge Runs such as 100% soul level 1. I will pass my experience to my children to produce the Perfect Race of gamers who will rule the rps metagame of politics. Not only are my Skills superior but my Goals are as well; what do you do with your games Casual Scum???
>>334874968
At least you got free souls from the boss.
WHY THE FUCK CANT I GO THROUGH FOGWALLS WHEN PEOPLE SUMMON ME FIX YOUR SHITTY GAME AND TERRIBLE NETCODE FROM
>>334874985
abyss watchers andsoul of cinderwere better imo
why are souls threads so belligerent ? its a constant contest of one upmanship about things that don't matter instead of sharing information about the game / the fights
>>334874985
This.
I also really like Deacons of the Deep and Pontiff's theme.
>>334875063
>baaawww, people don't play how I want them to play!
Just got done with this fight.
It took me FOREVER but goddamn the feeling of victory was exhilarating, it felt absolutely incredible, like that crazy dopamine rush of pure satisfaction.
Sometimes I like video games.
>>334874942
DaS2 teaches you better fundamentals than DaS1, there are less crutches and third wheels.
>>334874957
you're suppposed to react quickly and boner on out
>>334874985
Cinder,Yhorm, Pontiff, Aldrich, Gundyr, princes, and pretty much any other boss in the game disagrees.
>>334875182
deacon's of the deep was probably the best add-fight any game will ever have maybe
my improvements would have been
>mobs begin spawning instantly but behind the pillar is reference to the host
>when the archdeacon or whatever arrives, he only brings 1 blue tall and one blue fat, both with much higher health instead of the 6 fats
this fight was shit and nearly put me to sleep
Nameless King is the only good boss in the game.
>>334875152
Little white dicks. That's why.
>>334874187
hmm...and to think that I was stuck in this motherfucker.
>>334874985
I liked Lothric's theme better
>>334875216
Shitter detected
It's straight up a wasted stat because you shouldn't be getting hit.
I bet you summon for fights before atleast trying them yourself first.
>>334875145
Shit's annoying, yeah. Is fun to help through the boss door, but not as fun as actually fighting the boss, of course.
>>334875286
i would believe that if there were some indication of his invincibility before the fight but there ain't
>>334875342
>scrub nigger detected.
>>334875145
it's to keep you from wandering out of area during the summon you fucking putz

>74Million souls to heal Dark Sigil
I never even had that many souls ever
>>334874130
no way, they're exactly the same as they've ever been except you get less poise to work with
>>334875791
Only thehuman headdogs outside of Orlando are a pain.
>>334875652
Honestly as buttfuck easy as it was, the presentation for this fight was amazing, charging up the stormbringer and sending him on his ass felt so fucking badass.
>>334875716
You're wrong because you're a whiny bitch who wants people to play the way you tell them to
>>334875731
Are you serious? 74 million? Who the fuck thought that was a reasonable number? It's hard enough to get 10,000 souls.
>>334875716
Because the level of mastery required to not get hit is higher than what you are at during your first playthrough, and health is a usefull stat to learn patterns and movesets comfortably and experiment without having the suffer the loading screen from an unexpected one shot.
Like, why do I even need to spell something so obvious to you ? Do you have autism ?
>>334875912
It's a gimmick fight done right.
>>334875697
you can also equip the eye of the pontiff for the same attack bonus, which stacks with the pyromancy
whack some resin on your estoc and proceed to faceroll the entire game
>>334875995
>It's hard enough to get 10,000 souls
You'll get 10k per enemies later.

I cured mine for 50k
I think it scales with hollowing and soul level
>>334875381
Every stat is wasted if you never get hit. You don't need to do more damage if the enemies can never hit you anyway
>>334876052
Speaking of resin, is "Human" resin even good?
Is dark practically useless compared to holy like it has been in dark souls 1+2?
Shit where do you even get the estoc?
>>334876034
>level of mastery
Stop. DS3 roll iframes are more accommodating than ever, and they even introduced a ring that increases iframes even further. Roll forward and R1 to win.

Bloodborne is the hardest souls game without a doubt
You come across an area full of enemies
No using the bow to save your ass like in DS and you cant raise a shield to protect yourself either
In BB you HAVE to go in and fight, the combat is an absolute frenzy of madness
Also enemies hit the hardest in BB and the world has so many fucking cliff edges and falls
>>334876351
Every ennemy in the game has attacks designed to hit you if you roll too early, and humanoid bosses have combos that require varying timings of rolling if you want to roll through it all.
This fucking bitch keeps raining arrows that I can't escape from. It's really pissing me off
>>334876261
Jesus fuck my shits at 99 and I'm soul level 116
I waited to cure it because I wanted to get the trophy for all the ending by backing up my file before hand
I think From was pissed off that people platinumed Bloodborne so easily so they had to come up with something like forcing you to play up too NG++ and crap
>>334876484
That's just the thing, you don't have to even try to do that because it happens by itself by virtue of his clone sticking so close to him.
>>334876561
Badly designed enemies =/= difficulty
>>334876561
bloodborne has less cliffs and shit than most dark souls games, and the combat isn't that hard to grasp, don't get me wrong, bloodborne is my favorite souls game, but tone down the hyperbole a bit
>>334876653
Run in a circle, they follow you for as long as the attack lasts during his second phase
>>334876561
Only the DLC is hard. The main game is easier than DS3
>>334874886
I tried to do a pacifist run once in Dark Souls 2. Got only buffs and heals... Watching other players do pve can be a horrifying thing.
definitely the hardest in 3. no other boss came close.
i died to pontiff like 9 times but died to every other boss 5 or less times.
>>334876653
100%-50%, when he pulls out his bow keep stafing him ill he stops rotating and shoots. Stay directly behind him and wail on 'em
After 50%/when he uses fire for the first time I personally just ran serpentine/zigzags away and then doubled back after a few seconds. Running around a pillar base worked for me too
>>334876653
Whenever he goes underground run in the middle of the arena. Then run to him as soon as he pops out of the ground. Now he'll never use the arrows
>beat it on my first try with no summons
okay I practiced a bit by getting summoned
>>334876913
You're just like the piece of shit Monster Hunter player that sits in the corner to play HH songs and thinks they're helping.
are diehard BB fans spouting big words and food analogies again
>>334874187
This webm was a godsend. Parrying is way more effective than I thought it was. I'm fucking shaking from relief.
>>334876846
Fuck no i was stuck on BSB for a whole week in bloodborne
I got ds3 on friday and im already at the prince of lothric and i didnt die once to a boss until the abyss watchers
Just a reminder she is still best girl.
You didn't abandon her have you?
Biggest "oh shit" in the game for me was Aldritch, I was not expecting that. It was very cool to gradually start recognizing everything he did. Did he have elements of Nito and the izalith witches ? His staff's blade looks like a gravelord sword, and with the fire it really looks like a furysword
>>334876730
How are they badly designed
At least they dont have infinite stamina like most enimies in ds3
>>334871676
this the new meme? took me 4 attempts with a broadsword and torn rages or w/e that deprived start with. once I figured out you can kill his summon it was cake.
>>334877105
The only food analogy I can make up is that Dark Souls is a steak burned to cinder while Bloodborne is a steak full of blood
>>334874187
how does one achieve similar damage levels ? I was nowhere near close that when I was at this boss and my weapons were upgraded as much as possible at that time
>>334877348
There's no way he could eat Nito if you had to get his soul in DaS to progress but there's a lot of Nito on Aldritch like the sword, cloak and spookies on his body.
>>334877246
>I got ds3 on friday and im already at the prince of lothric and i didnt die once to a boss until the abyss watchers
That's what happens when you summon people to help you kill all the bosses.
>>334877279
I'm still sticking by my theory that DS3 leads up to Demons.
>>334877350
They literally do though. They also can just decide to break out of hitstun, turn their hyperarmor on and hit you
>>334877246
I understand dying a few times to BSB but I refused to believe anyone can possibly be stuck a whole week on that piece of shit

Why are you so mad?
There's nothing wrong with fucking around with phantoms.
At least it was more successful than my archer only run. Glad there's no soul memory in DS3.
>>334877571
There's nothing really supporting that tho, I mean there's nothing analoguous to the demons of DeS in DaS.
What npc stuff should I do after Watchers? Got the gesture from Darkmoon chick
>>334877823
Did you play Demons? DS3 is like half Demons.
>>334877580
How is this different from ennemies in DaS3 ?
>>334877883
Did you went to Cathedral of Deep?
>>334871676
whipped this up just for you now git gud faggot
>>334871676
Hardest boss is probably Ludwig but he was indeed fucking annoying. I had to cheese him with fireballs, trying to beat him in melee range was pissing me off.
I really don't get it. Sure P1 has some extremely low wind up and lightning fast attacks but you can still read him. P2 is way easier. Literally super punishable woth 2 rolls
>>334877528
I didnt summon anyone up until that cunt sulyvhan, i totally agree with OP for me hes the hardest souls boss ive faced so far
At the moment im getting fucked by champion iunder or whatever its fucking name is
>>334876561
Only the first two hours of Bloodborne is hard.
After Bloodstarved Beast and Ameila, you get so many options and get the option of amazing gems that the game becomes trivial until you meet up with Marty (if you're bad at parrying) , and then again with Laurence (if you have the DLC) and then Gehrman (if you don't know how to parry)
Especially since no boss can really oneshot you outside of counter hits and Micolash, the rally system, no equip load, and the fact that within the first 5-15 minutes of the game, you can acquire some of the best PvE weapons, and the DLC weapons practically break PvE, Bloodborne ends up being the easiest SoulsBorne game outside of Pre=Patched DaS2 where you can just lightning spear/Hex everything in 2-3 casts.
After Amelia, the only boss I ended up dying more than ocne times was Gehrman and Laurence. I beat Shadows, Rom, Marty, Ludwig, Maria, Amygdala, Orphan, Micolash on my first try.
>>334873142
Im glad this is true for someone other than me. I discovered the secret of beer on my fifth try of laurel and hardy in ds 1. 10 beers deep, your basically God in these games.
>>334873223
Use a goddamn shield, his attacks take away almost no stamina. When he summons his double is the best window to attack, you can get his double to very low health during this window and possibly even kill it if you have high damage. Get fucking good.
>>334877984
I got ludwig first try and i was drunk as fuck
As i posted earlier though i was stuck on BSB for a week, swings and roundabouts i guess
>>334877949
It's not, one of my complaints about dark 3 is how they carried over bad design decisions from BB
>>334874187
So he's just False King 2.0?
>>334874187
I still don't understand how a speedrunner has that much HP and does that much damage against Pontiff. Is it NG+?
>>334877939
But strong souls in DaS are always empowered by one of the elements, be it fire, dark, lightning or arcane, and always seem consumed by it.
In DeS demons are just strong things.
So I used a Homeward Bone at the Dancer immediately because I had 250k souls, I spent them and now I have no idea what I'm supposed to do.
>>334875452
I can't fight the boss kike
>>334877939
Demons in Dark Souls and Demons's Souls are whole different species though
>>334874569
Wait, how are there two hosts?
>>334877967
lol pretty true. bigger bosses like Yorhm can just be stood under as well.
>>334878174
Place the basin?
>>334878153
>that much health
that's like 30 vig
the damage is some fire % increase stacking that leads to silly things

pick one
>>334878174
The dancer is at where the old lady is in the church. Spawn at Vordt and run back until you hit the fogwall.
>>334877459
Quick question
:Large Club or Great Club for a strength build
I'm at Soul of Cinder. His five hit combo that he charges in the second half wrecks me. I can dodge the first hit, maybe the second, but I inevitably end up hit and from there you can't do anything. Help.
>>334878248
One is using a ring to pass as the host.
>Everybody says that his first form is the hard part, and that his second form is easy
>Have the exact opposite problem
His first form is a non-issue. Strafe right with a shield up, or just roll because most of his attacks will miss anyways. Bam. Done.
Second form feels like a dps check to see how fast you can burst down the clone. If you can't then you're fucked because they will both do the same attack every time, except the real one will do it half a second later, making even the slowest and most telegraphed move a nightmare to dodge.
>>334878091
I got him. Parrying was incredibly helpful.
>>334878153
Speedrunners don't speedrun any SoulsBorne game at NG+ for two very obvious reasons.
It's also the buffs+scailing+swords being broken as fuck and doing extremely high parrying damage.
>>334878414
>>334878314
Oh, thanks.
>>334873784
good on you, but most people aren't level 172 and using 3 phantoms when they fight him
The oniichan boss was so cool.
Sad though.
>>334878387
yeah dancer was one of the bosses where I felt completely immersed. Absolutely harrowing music along with the odd movements made the fight super memorable.
>>334878593
I think the footsteps echoing the way they did really helped.
>>334878475
I felt the same.
My strategy for the second form was basically waiting till he does that move where he jumps up and lunges at you. I would just roll right towards him and get a few good shots on both him and his shadow. Required a lot of patience but once his shadow is dead, it's basically just waiting till he tries to summon again and then wail on him till he's dead.
>>334874187
What sword? Looks nice.
>>334876982
Literally the worst advice ever. She starts up the attack even if I'm standing above her when she reappears.
Feels pretty bad knowing I've been using a Heavy Infused Broadsword for 80% of the game and then finding out it's apparently a meme sword
>>334878727
>she
>>334878546
>My brother
>Unyielding sword of Lothric's prince
>Rise if you will
>For that is our curse
Never has beating up a pair of cripples been so amazing
>>334878727
>her
>she
>>334871676
I had way more trouble with the dancer.
>>334878727
>she
The Deacons of the Deep are the hardest boss like holy shit I had to summon seven Phantoms just to kill those guys how do you even make him lose HP???????
>>334878786
Who cares? It's one of the best weapons along with a ton of other straight swords.
>>334878447
Just run away when he's prepping that Louisville Slugger move, he sits in that pose for like, 5 seconds. You have enough time to roll away
>>334878546
This pic displeases me
Lothric is a fucking yandere that is making the corpse of his brother dance on his strings and writing fanfics about how much he cares about him. He even crippled him because he was jealous of his warrior career. I refuse to believe they had a loving relationship.
>>334874775
It's a little annoying because I tried to the first few times and it just turns out the timing's unintuitive. But once you've done it you can do it again AKA all bosses in this game.
>still no pepe souls
Why
>>334878786
>falling for the meme weapon meme
We've been through like 10 meme weapons by now.
It means nothing.
>>334878903
>like 10x as many dudes as the previous hardest boss, Prowling Magus.
what was From thinking
>>334878593
My fave boss in the whole game along with the deacons of the deep
That thematically was amazing and creepy
>>334878786
>anyone who doesnt play the game with a build i approve of is a memelord scrub git gud faggot -every retard ever
dont blame yourself anon as long as you can beat them yourself youre a badass who doesnt afraid of anything
>>334874051
>Fighting Vordt for the first time
>Getting a feel for his moveset
>Get hit and knocked over
>Okay, that's something to watch out for, but I bet I ca-
>Die learning that your stand up animation loses invincibility frames half way through and once it does you can roll out of it
It was a very unpleasant surprise. Fortunately I realized that Vordt is a standard Souls game dog boss, after which he became piss easy.
That lunge attack with the mace is really hard to see coming though. It has almost no start up.
>>334877957
Not yet
>>334873817
What jump are we talking about here? did i miss something? Profaned Capital is literally just two rooms and a boss
>>334878903
Depending on your weapon they can be pretty fucking tough.
Of course everyone will just go with some kind of sword and wreck them but try it with a mace and tell me how it went
>>334879028
This guy get's it. Deacons was fucking awesome.
