Okay, so after beating the game twice (and beating some of the earlier bosses 3 or 4 times), I think I have a good feel of how hard the bosses are for me. Only counting non-Chalice ones for now. On my first playthrough I used the cane exclusively, on my second I used the rapier with a bloodtinge build.
S Tier
Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos- By far the hardest for me. It's hard enough before it gets to its second form if the camera screws up or you get trapped in a corner... and then the second form happens. Also frenzy lol.
A Tier
Vicar Amelia- I've heard this was easier with a heavy weapon, but it still gives me some trouble. One of the bosses where it's really easy to have everything go to shit really fast, and it has a ton of health.
Shadow of Yharnam- I thought this was really easy on my first playthrough... turns out that was glitched because the flame sword one wouldn't attack or call snakes. A lot harder the real way, even with parries.
Matyr Logarius- He can be really easy or hard depending on what he does, but he's more hard than not. I feel like this is one of the "did you get lucky?" bosses in the game. I used to think he was impossible, but he's not so bad now.
Gehrman, the First Hunter- I know I just said he was really easy if you parry him, and he is, but even then you can fuck up or get nervous and die really fast.
B Tier
Father Gascoigne- I swear no matter how many times I face this guy, I always lose at least twice. This shouldn't be this hard lol.
Moon Presence- Seemed a lot easier coming off of Gehrman, but it's still not too easy. Only fought this one once though, maybe I need to do it again.
Amygdala- Kind of borderline between B and C. Was really hard with my cane, but with the bloodtinge build I could just sit back and shoot really easily. Pretty middle-of-the-road.
C Tier
Mergo's Wetnurse- Not that hard to avoid outside of darkness mode, the hardest thing about this boss is how long it takes to kill.
Blood-Starved Beast- Another luck based boss I think. I've never been poisoned by it, but I feel like whether you win or not depends on if it tries that jumping grab attack.
Darkbeast Paarl- I have no clue how to beat this guy, but by the time I face him I'm high enough leveled to just use blood vials and tank his hits. He goes down fast.
D Tier
Rom, Vacuous Spider- This guy is too easy. The only time I had trouble with him was when I tried killing the spiders, as soon as I switched back to just running on my second playthrough I beat him lol.
Micolash, Host of the Nightmare- He's pretty easy (especially with blood rapture), but his Call from Beyond can be hard if you don't know what to do, and those dwarves suck. Probably my favorite boss fight.
The One Reborn- One-shotted this dude the first time, had a bit more trouble the second. You have time to change clothes and item equips lol.
E Tier
Celestial Emissary- I felt bad when I lost to this guy a few times in a row. Those mobs can get you by surprise.
Cleric Beast- One shotted on my very first time playing the game, never had any trouble since.
Witch of Hemwick
Witch of Hemwick- Yeahh...
Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos- By far the hardest for me. It's hard enough before it gets to its second form if the camera screws up or you get trapped in a corner... and then the second form happens. Also frenzy lol.

I wish, stat requirements are too high :[
Can only use the starting weapons unfortunately. I think I'll go with the axe.
After the 3rd boss there will be a lamp and no exit other than the way you came in.
You will reach a dead end (probably after 3rd or 4th boss)

sometimes i wonder why Pinwheel is even a boss. man, that was bad lol
I died more times against the Cleric Beast than I did against ever boss in A Tier put together.
CE was damn easy too but it took so much longer. but they're pretty on par, imo
Well, Father G. is considered to be easy, but I couldn't beat him for a day because I didn't understand parrying at the time.
On the other hand, Ebrietas was easy for me and I really don't know why.
wait, there's a trick to it? i went in blind and was just killing those guys until he showed up. first try tho so i never looked up what the gimmick was really about.

At this point i might just leave ebi on WoS, betweenthe camera/ poorly designed charge move/ constant hp drain... I'm no longer dying cause its my own fault.

the story blood rock is in nightmare of mensis. You can only get it after you defeat the boss area. Lots of frenzy on the way to get the rock too.

Ive been trying to avoid looking up anything so far (outside of how the fuck do bells work) and i just have a couple of questions
1.I know about the "real ending" thing. What is the absolute final boss I can beat before I should stop and go back and find the items?
2. I got my first chalice. I'm somewhere between 45-55 right now(at work so can't look) Can I start chalice stuff now or is all that more end game stuff? Want to see if I should try it out or if i'd just be wasting items
I also felt p good because I beat that BSB asshole on my first try, though I was a. overleveled (went all through hemwick first) and b. used fire paper and tore his shit up

I'm at 102 and mine is only around 1200 total. I think I have about 30 points in it.
And quickly came to the conclusion that I didn't need Ailing Loran Dungeon because I already created one. Are you fucking kidding me. I'm such an idiot.

He's easy too if you have a divine sword
The Ancient Lord of the Dead is this slow moving fatass.
the whole Tomb of the Giants was a massive boss. the fear was real.
1.
Story-wise, the wet nurse.
Get in his face. Even if he starts to fire the missiles, if you hit him early enough it'll stun him out of it. If you stay close to him, he won't even use that move. He'll just try and use physical attacks and the tentacle thing.
There is no correct answer to this. It's just as important to level Vitality as well as Endurance, Strength and Skill (depending on your weapon). But if you think you are too weak, focus on leveling up Vitality for now.
