>not bed of chaos

when that boss briefly peekd its head
>hmm thats not so bad
then the whole thing came out of water
>ohh fug

t.bh there are a lot of DaS bosses that can be posted here. I started a new playthrough a couple days age and just beat gaping dragon. It was a complete chore.

"that looks cool, put it in."

then it turned out to be easy as sin

Getting to him was harder than beating him tbqh. Especially with those gecko-things running around in the Depths; you know, the ones who spew gas that makes you cursed.

>iron golem
He's not even difficult but we are given the ability to knock him into a stun that lasts long enough for us to take at least half his total health.
I guess it was some tower knight reference but the whole fight is completely trivialized.

seriously thoe wtf
fought seth scaless first was getting all excited
then nito and that was fun
then expecting a great battle and saving the demon ruins boss for the last and i get a a "no boss" battle
i spent fucking hours dying, hitting his hands thinking why doesnt the fuck take damage just to realise im not even suppose to fight it

...

You only have to fight one gecko, though. At least that's how it was for me. Maybe you can skip all of them, even. Some asshat had written "Here!" at the top of the water slide which lead straight to the gecko pit. "Liar" was written at the landing spot.

You dunce you have to hug the left wall when you do the slide. It takes you straight to the last room of depths where the blight town gate is.

those geko cunts werent even a slightly bit of a nuance
literally just move to the side as they attack
and there was a bonfire nearby to reach the boss in mere seconds the bonfire path was taking the longway down instead of taking the shortcut near the butcher

>people in here seriously complaining about the geckos

What the fuck did I just walk into

You only have to fight one to get to Gaping dragon but if you want to get the ring you have to kill, like, 5 of them.

2 of which are literally next to eachother.

I was so glad to finally leave the Depths, desu Blightown was easier than the Depths.

Those dart shooters didn't give me close to the same problems that being cursed did.

Not only was it a 1 hit kill, it also halved your HP until you found your way back to firelink shrine in order to farm a bazilion souls just to stop being cursed - unless they get you again, ofcourse.

>literally just move to the side as they attack

If only the Depths weren't so extremely small. Moving to the side is pretty hard when the corridor is only 4x4meter

>and there was a bonfire nearby to reach the boss in mere seconds
Yes, but in order to get a rare ring you needed to go into the Gecko territory first.

That thing is fucking easy, what are you on?

In terms of what?

Aesthetic design, attack patterns, placement?

>nier automata does this fight years later and it's just as shitty
>not even a jackpot

It was easy, but the boss has too much HP. It's extremely boring to wait for it to stop attacking so that you can take away a tiny portion of its health.

General choreography of the fight.

I raise you this shit

Nigger just cut its tail off, pick a favorite hind leg and hack away. Gaping Dragon is harmless.

They were thinking "well you cant see its eyes so lets just make it blind and have no idea where the player actually is"

git fukkin gud kiddo

Now soloing Ornstein and Smough, that was a fucking trainwreck

>not buying the crystal greatsword before hand near the blightown entrance and using it two handedly on the dragon

that fight isnt even hard

He's too easy to bait so that you can get in some easy damage.

its actually one of my favorite fights for some reason. Maybe its because it feels like a proper boss fight. If you get good RNG its an easy fight. Bait it into that bodyslam attack, remember that 90% of the time it does the forwards charge after that, as soon as it finished it's charge run at the tail and attack like a madman. Rinse and repeat.

If you have bad rng it can be kalameet-tier bullshit but no regular boss is as bad as kalameet (regular meaning not bed of chaos).

>friend tells me about das
>dude the bossfights
>demon butt
>dude falling damage lmao
>dude cheese lmao
>this fucking dragon with one attack

Took until Gargoyles for me to "get" Dark Souls. Now all I do is farm FRC Chalices with /bbg/.

Yeah that was pretty disappointing. Doesn't it only have three moves? God damn I was so intimidated by it. Now it's free souls.

You fight the Gargoyles before you can even attempt to challenge the Gaping Dragon.

no

lol same here
i realised the potential of two handed attacks at gargoyles part then dark souls became a piece of cake especially after i got gravelords sword earlier on by brute forcing catacombs

Drake sword has better damage

My character doesn't have the strength for it. I am putting points only into vitality and endurance for now, and I will put points into attunement later.

my bad i though you resonded to my other post

>Giant glowing weak spots
>Better keep slapping his hands

no i already figured that part
this was after destroing the glowing spheres i though this was something like the seth scaleless where i take those out to then be able to damage his hands but didnt realise i had to go further into his "heart" so to say later

Someone give me a fun DaS1 build. I already did Sorcery and a Strength build that mained Zweihander.
I kinda want to become a dragon but that seems impossible now.

>Giant glowing weak spot in the center of the stage
>Better keep slapping his hands

fighting seath first is useless
because big hat logan mention it
but the problem is that you need to follow his story if you want to know how to beat seath

I HAVE THE POWER OF SPARDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

he never said it was hard, kiddo

im sorry but when the game forces you to hack and slash for majority of the time with bosses and then suddenly introduces this kind of boss it ends up being sort of counter-intuative because my focus and strategy was on how to swiftly dodge his hand swoops and that fiery thing attacks to get at his hands and not on the center of his body

What about Mara?

They were thinking about chinese stuff like anime edginess.

Midir is hard as fuck. Took me like 3 hours in total trying to beat him.

I thought he was a terrible boss at first, but once I figured out the way to beat him by always staying infront of him and going for the head, it becomes a good and pretty fair fight.

That Siamese conjoined giant spider boss in DaS2

And to think it's named after a goddess from Norse myth

Believe it or not, no matter how difficult it is to fathom, but giant clitoris.

Google it and find out

>first few times fighting him
Swing at his tail and legs like every other dragon; die like a bitch.
>after figuring out how to fight him
Bonk him on the noggin and roll back a few times; fail proof.

youtu.be/Yc8Sx-h-nGo
cool that players can kill it outside

>DaS2 fucked up so much stuff
>but did so much cool shit right
>everyone only remembers it for the shit it did wrong so none of the cool shit got ported to DaS3
>NG+ is all boring as shit now
Feels bad, man.

The boss is supposed to be hard if you don't kill that sorcerer who buffs him and can shoot you no matter where you are.

>a giant spider can shoot laser beams

You used to be able to grief the guy who summoned you
You had to cast thet spell which heals in AOE, it would render this boss invulnerable

But he didn't kill her

They brought back most of my favorite armor from 2 so all I really miss is ascetics.
Don't know how people can be against that item.

> You could dual wield binoculars.

>duel wielding
>dick ass NPC phantoms
>a trillion different kinds of magic
>bonfire ascetics
>good DLC
>miracles were really viable
It was a good game. I don't get why people act like it is one of the worst games ever made when it was one of the best games from 2014.

It's a soul eating spider, of course it can shoot them back.

What's wrong with him? Easy boss that looks cool

Are those Leviathan's Hearts?

Because that's where my casual ass dropped out.

These mother fuckers right here
