poison takes them down pretty well, I used a bow with poison arrows to deal with them most times. They are slow enough you can just back up and shoot.

Finally got that fat bastard. Had to change up the armor set and was finally avoiding his grab. Gracias to those who offered helped.

I think the way to the boss is much harder than the boss itself.
Roll to the side when he attacks? Also try not to walk into the fire when backing up....oh, and you can chop his arm off so he can't hit you with the cleaver! Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Edit:
Yup, I had great timing I guess.

Yeah it was more the path getting there that was just a hassle, by the time I got to the boss I was already fatigued. Gotta keep your mind right at all times. Can't go on tilt.
Late game:
one burst through a a wall and I didn't want to run through the wall into the unknown. I hammered it with spells and got it half down and got grabbed.

What level are you? I think the Iron Keep is going to be my task tomorrow. I've been in and out of there a bunch of times, just haven't taken out the bosses yet.

I'm not too far in yet I think. Just reached the wharf side entry point into the Lost Bastille and I'm wondering why the fuck the shore is absolutely littered with bloodstains left by people who look to have just blindly walked off the edge into the water to certain death for no reason.

Pretty lame that I did so much co-op early on...i basically co-oped myself out of being able to summon help for bosses later in the game. The pool of potential players is pretty small now

Not entirely sure, tbh. I'm not ready to move to NG+ either as I don't know if I'm gonna keep playing (Infamous in about 30 minutes!). I just wonder how populated it is ATM.
And of course I just ran out of cracked blue orbs
I don't understand why the covenant leader just doesn't sell them--like what's the big deal.Cool, thanks a lot.
Also, screw that 'fall' in that area, broke all my stuff.
Ah those guys! Nice, might go pick up a few more levels there, though I think I'm a bit overleveled as it it =P
He thinks that his Soul Memory number is too high. Which is not true.
So what? Even if you cooped like crazy early on in the game ... a few thousand souls more or less, what does it matter? You'll have one or two million souls at the end of the game.
edit: Also, small whitestone ignores Soul Memory in NG.
Damn - it seems like quite the investment. Mines is only at 6 (fighting pursuer now). I don't think it was necessary for From to mess with this. Can't say I am a fan.
Ah - well that's not too bad. I tried to not read the spoilers since I am still in the beginning. Still getting used to everything.

so there being no one to summon is my imagination, huh?
I'm not saying it won't level out eventually. I'm saying for right now for where I'm at in the game, it makes it difficult to find other players to summon.

You can actually stop them from spawning for anyone who is going to do that boss fight. Right below the stairs is an annoying Hollow ringing the bell
damn, really? I guess I'll start to level up that stat now. and I thought I was sucking at dodging.

About SL80-85, had to upgrade the great club to +7 just to get some decent damage on him. Oh also after you beat him in case anybody is wondering
a pursuer like enemy spawns in his boss room after you sit at a bonfire, if you kill him he will drop a good ring

good to know, hopefully that explains my issue.

I'm at 106, but I'm sure it'll still be a tough fight.
This was bugging me for a while too.
If you deplete the stamina bar completely you can't run again until it fills all the way back up.

Are blue sentinels broken? I've spent many hours in the bell tower pvping and I was never summoned, only invaded constantly.

Welp, poise is a worthless stat in pvp.
1 handed R1 from a small sword can break 140+ poise with a single hit.

I just killed the boss of the
. Died a few times but i quickly learned his tricks. It was one of the easiest bosses afterall.
It's funny. I beat every boss so far by myself. It's not that i want to solo them all but everytime i try to summon player or npc we end up dying.

late game spoilers:
And I beat him first try after bitching. Harumph.
Giant Lord is obnoxious. You cannot see a goddamn thing during that fight, you pretty much have to use the force to know when to dodge. His sword swipe hitbox is horseshit, too. He somehow hits inbetween his own legs, despite the actual model going nowhere near there. Ugh.

I had a similar issue with
The Rotten's grab move. I would roll through it, his hand would pass me by, and then ta-da! I magically teleport into his hand. Fuck that motherfucker, I killed him anyway.

I'm in new game + and have just noticed that I've never been able to pull off a guard break on a regular PVE enemy. I've done it a couple of times in PVP but in PVE I land the guard break and then the next hit is never a crit, no matter how I seem to time it.
Any tips on getting it right? I'm using the Greatsword, if that matters.

Fought him a little bit ago. This fight would've been a complete joke without the really small arena. With it, this boss was somewhat annoying.

Yeah, I'm kinda stumped on this. No matter what armor every hit will stunlock me anyway.
Maybe they reworked poise to lower the time you are staggered rather than it preventing to be staggered at all or something.
Not finding much use in it so far anyway.
Yeah that was one of y least favorite boss fights just because I couldn't see anything the whole time
The Giant Lord looks so cool and then I get to stare at his ankles while rolling randomly

Ok I'm having a huge problem here.
In the Lost Bastile or w/e its called, there is a part where the mummy is supposed to roll a barrel down the stairs and explode the wall right? Well I went through the whole area in one go, the guy rolled the barrel the first time, but instead of going straight, it turned and exploded into the wall on the right before it was anywhere near me. So after collecting everything in the area, I went back to break the wall. Respawned the dude like 6 times now and the barrel, and each time now, he just sits there never rolling it. Talking respawning and reloading the entire game nothing.
Is it a one off because these random glitches and enemies just straight up pausing and not moving because of getting caught in the saving game loading is really annoying.

you can roll the barrel yourself

Kill him and roll the barrel down yourself. Then you need to blow it up with a firebomb.
Edit: too slow...

I think you only get the critical if the enemy is actually blocking, otherwise they're just staggered for a short while. Try it on those spear hollows in the forest of fallen giants. They block a lot.

The game doesn't make it very clear that you can lock on to different parts of some bosses, but you can. This helps a LOT against bosses so huge that it's sometimes hard to tell what they're doing. Still kind of awkward, though.
Which place is this ?? :0
