Not gonna lie, I wasn't entirely bummed out after dying a few times BUT ANYWAY someone was asking about strategies for dancer. It's tricky in the same way Artorias was in the old days(Or Pontiff in DS3) - the moveset is very hard to read, so it's a good idea to do practice runs: Lock on, keep a distance and watch her go. For Phase 2, she typically starts by twirling, twirling toward freedom...there's a couple ways to handle this, sort of like Smough in DS1: Either run like hell(or possibly roll?), or use pillars to your advantage which will keep her in the same spot.



As for myself, been very busy after finishing Journey 2 to get one of the harder endings, and also tried the sorcerer. In terms of difficulties, it made Wolnir light years easier, and Deacons of the Deep like a Darkroot Canal - I hope to never touch that again as ranged. To be fair though, the rebalancing a la BB for weaponry makes melee as a caster more appealing, and sometimes necessary for boss battles. Switching between a magic sword and fists of heavy metal has its pleasures.

Well, I'm finished.

And by finished I mean "missed an entire area and a boss."

By far - by far the hardest fight for me was

I had a smidgen of trouble with

I evidently got the 'hidden' ending, although it isn't very hidden if you can get it playing blind. (It helps when you lose your way and have to backtrack a million times, therefore stumbling into things you missed on the first go around.)

Mmm, mentioned that to you about the dancer that after 8-9 tries I had her pegged.. then she suddenly pulled a completely new attack that I hadn't seen earlier and was caught completely off-guard and got screwed

Ooh, covenant items are farmable. This pleases me, since my internet is shit AND I'm awful against opponents that can think.

Ah, crap, the Dark Sigil is upon me. I'll turn into a basket case in no time now.

Haha, just took down that big tree. Relatively easy that one as well, though I did get annoyed on my second attempt when I thought I had managed to kill it, with me only having basically 5% health left, but it went on a rampage that just went on and on and it killed me in the end. Humorous, but annoying. Well got it killed on my third time easily.

Think I've explored most of the area here. Met Sigfraed as well and had a short but cool fight, and toasted with drinks over our kill. Jolly fellow that guy, can see why he is such a fan favorite. Now I need to check where exactly I have to go to get to the next area...

That's why I said DS3 and BB and not mentioned the other games I've yet to play

If you had more issues with him that's cool but it doesn't change the fact that he was terribly easy for me and only hit me twice, never taking me below 75% health

I forgot to say I didn't used 'Q' button to focus on the boss. That's why it was super-hard to fight. Last time I injured the boss 66%. Maybe using fire grenades is a good idea.

Oh yay, swamp level!

Said no one ever...
