In coop against him backstabs are key, especially
So I beat the game at around lv80 and did nothing but chalice dungeons as soon as I started ng+. Now I'm level 125 and ng+ is a joke, I may just blaze through the game and get the true ending and make ng++ my full guide/walkthrough run. It'll take care of the platinum, too, since it's the one trophy I need.
co-op buffs the bosses so they're actually much much harder with your buddies.

70 is fine. That's near the end of the game, but there were a few areas you may have missed that are optional.
yup, it's the end game. do the optional areas cuz i think they'll give you a challenge.

Actually at the end of the game. Finish up anything else you want before proceeding with the story.
Yeah, overall I really don't like Chalices. It's a damn shame that the trophy they attached a boss fight with is so good as you need to put up with tons of bullcrap to get to it, and it's better than a lot of the actual main game fights.
You finally get it?!
grats dude, its amazing, despite what works for most, a lot of people do things so differently and it works. Thats why Souls games are so good. So many ways to approach a fight.
yea, i don't get the whole materials BS. the dungeons ain't easy, just let us progress.
yup,
Cainhurst, Upper Cathedral and Nightmare Frontier.

I swear this list that ranks the bosses from easiest to hardest is messed up. I thought Paarl, VicAm, TOR were very easy. Rom, FG, and BSB have been my hardest fights.

I don't think its that simple because my kill which was pretty dang quick, I managed that right after turning the console on maybe the 2nd or 3rd attempt that day (she was whipping my ass the night before). I'm thinking you can beat it out of its phase change or maybe there's some other weird shit going on. I killed it with no aura or lasers.
Also I went at ML and the time I did beat him I stayed close parrying and there weren't any swords. This was right after an attempt where he did use them.
I really think the AI behavior is just random as shit. Maybe with this stuff on the extreme end but I'm sure a lot of people are just shutting down their consoles so its not a factor.
Have you been to
the Nightmare Frontier? Or Upper Cathedral? Or found the optional path in the Nightmare of Mensis?
yea, I beat her, micholash(can't remember his name), and wet nurse last night. Then beat Gher and Moon presence tonight.
the shadows as second? please
TOR wasn't easy for me but I did it in one attempt, if that makes sense?

Doesn't sound like a memory leak as it would persist even in application shutdown and wreak havoc on the OS level. Sounds more like bosses are inheriting some basic AI functions from a single class. More than likely info about the player, their position, health, distance, rotation to the boss object, current button press, etc. Its the right way to code so you don't duplicate unnecessary code but if a variable isn't properly serialized and uses time for any of its math there's a good chance time may throw it off causing bugs. Or somewhere down that class line a pointer tries to reference a location in memory that doesn't exist and rather than throw a critical error they use a catch to prevent unwanted hangs for nulls. I don't know how time affects the game so this is purely speculation.

I love Pokken!
Rom and
Headless Bloodletting Beast
BSB isn't hard at all. Circle-strafing to the left easily avoids all its attacks. Here's a video of EpicNameBro utterly destroying it at base level with an unupgraded weapon using that strategy.
BLB turned out to be easy for me. beat him 3rd try. just attacked under his legs and he was helpless lol
Fuck yeah dude. Grats!
Fav boss? Mine is easily

Just killed 2 separate invaders in the nightmare frontier. Murdered the shit out of them with my blades of mercy. Feels good man.

I consider anything done in one attempt as easy. Every boss has a certain level of stress involved. I used a bunch of Vials on the TOR but beat it on my first try and never felt out of control.
i summoned for that fight cuz that area wore me the fuck out.

I didn't even know you could kill the spell casters on TOR when I fought him.

Swing to his backside and aim for his legs. It will drop him.
SargerusBR
I love Pokken!
uh oh, now i'm kinda scared
Ritual Blood 4 is just not dropping that much for me. i keep getting fucking vials and QS bullets or shards. annoying

And tips for
Marty Mcflyarius? He's kicking my ass with his stupid skull powers.
I beat him with
0 vials and half health by staying under him and actually dodging through his AoE attack like a badass. I was never able to this again on subsequent playthroughs so I resorted to stun-locking him with charge attacks lol.
Yeah I'm a big fan of her "Oh you think you just dodged my arm? Well don't worry here's a tentacle for you"
fire paper, stay under him as much as you can (under his belly) dont lock on and aim for his legs, use 1h not 2h, and swing away.
Hm. I'd rank them like this, hardest to easiest:
Elder God Tier
Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
Martyr Logarius
Gehrman, The First Hunter
Sweatin'
Blood Starved Beast
Vicar Amelia
Somewhat Challenging
Mergo's Wet Nurse
Father Gascoigne
Pthemunien Queen Chalice Lady Person
Eh
Moon Presence
Amygdala
Rom
Darkbeast Paarl
The One Reborn
Shadow of Yharnam
The Opposite of Elder God Tier
Celestial Emissary
Micolash
Witch of Hemwick
Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
Martyr Logarius
Gehrman, The First Hunter
Sweatin'
Blood Starved Beast
Vicar Amelia
Somewhat Challenging
Mergo's Wet Nurse
Father Gascoigne
Pthemunien Queen Chalice Lady Person
Eh
Moon Presence
Amygdala
Rom
Darkbeast Paarl
The One Reborn
Shadow of Yharnam
The Opposite of Elder God Tier
Celestial Emissary
Micolash
Witch of Hemwick
The giant pigs later on also look creepy. Anything with a bunch of eyes look cool.
No, I don't believe so, how do I get there? I am in the process of fighting CE now, is that the only boss there? How do I find the other path in Mensis?

Thanks guys, I realized locking on to Paarl was doing more harm than good. Took me three tries but staying under him was the best tactic.
I loved that!
Seriously. Series highlight boss fight. Not quite Artorias or O&S level, but def hangs alongside Kalameet, Capra and False King in my book.
lol I just died in the weirdest way. I was at Ni
, I guess my Frenzy bar filled up, but I was most of the way through the teleport to Hunter's Dream animation. That said, right before I went to the load screen, I saw a splash of blood. I was like, "did I die?" After I landed at Hunter's Dream, I died instantly. Luckily when I reappeared at Hunter's Dream, my echoes were right under me.
ghtmare of Mensis
Grats!
3/4
Nice. Thanks. That boss fight right before wasn't bad at all.
After you beat CE, smash the window by the lantern. In Mensis look for an window you can roll into from one of the tiny elevators. Don't look up what happens next. It'll be a good surprise. Did you get the Tonsil Stone? If so, follow the instructions to get to NF.
