Just attack it from behind (the fog gate side); it only ever seems to attack the other way so it's completely harmless (it's easiest to wait for it to shoot lightning).

I think
rank 2 is the max for a lot of covenants now. Usually rank 1 at 10 and rank 2 at 30.
Get behind it toward the boss fog door. It won't aim any attacks at you there. I just use the ballista by standing close to where the worm is and rolling away from the ballista bolts. They'll hit the worm and do like 350 dmg each.

Purple phantoms seem like they are really good for organizing fight clubs, just have everybody that wants to participate drop a purple sign for the host and they'll be able to fight each other just fine.
You mean the one in
Smoldering lake? There are these huge arrows flying there, you can try to position yourself in a way that the arrows hit the worm.
Go back out to the marsh area with the giant crabs and go to the opposite side of the zone. There is an exit there that will progress you into the next zone and the next boss.
That how I beat it. Stood behind it and just rolled away whenever a bolt was near.
Thanks for the quick reply.
That's okay although it would have been cool if there was more to grind towards.

Thanks iRAWRasaurus & UmbraeCruxis, playing in offline mode, so I am enjoying exploring but after 2 hours of walking in circles and exploring every inch in the church I turned it off.

Shit, I would I could.
The second phase was just too unpredictable, when I could even get to the second phase.

I love coop, and coop every boss. That said, coop completely trivializes any boss that can be backstabbed, which makes those ones feel too easy imo.
How am I twisting your word when you wrote "if a person can't beat the game solo then maybe the game isn't for them and they should try playing something which suits them better"? To me this sounds exactly that if you are not good then go play something else. And some people get lot of enjoyment out of coop instead of banging their head against the wall.
yes. I just did quite a bit of farming for upgrades, and also when and searched all the slabs I missed (and found another estus shard too). Im actually going to leave it at NG for the DLC I think
Play in offline mode.

Maybe I got lucky with these guys because two kept each other busy long enough for me to take one down to a smidgen of health. Once they began attacking in numbers it wasn't hard to quickly finish off the wounded one and use their wide attacks and the large play space to divide and conquer. With the final form I just stayed aggressive...Rolled around & block stepped within striking distance and punished the fucker every time there was opening.
What weapon are you using?
But I still want to read notes and such I guess... Guess I can't have it another way.

Welcome to my world.
Yeah no other choice. Just run around with the way of blue covenant.

Wow
is hard as melee.
Edit: Just kidding, killed him on the next try. Thanks, GAF.

The one in
Smouldering Ash? if you run past it and hide behind a wall, the ballista ammo will kill it.

Dancer is probably one of my favorite souls bosses and one of the few I'll defeat solo in this game to prove I have some dignity. Almost one shorted it and the soundtrack is great.
I guess this means
so what else is there to do? I've killed
but is there anything worth while in the area to do? Also how do I get to
and any other hidden areas?
I guess this means
I'm approaching end game

Nope you should do it if you want access to another NPC. It might be too late already.

I realize it. It's really hard for me to do consistently :v
Damn. This is what happens when you're traumatized by previous Miyazaki games. It took me a little bit to tell the handmaiden
where I found the paladin's ashes
Honestly, every time that happens I actually feel bad for the host. Not out to ruin anyone's game.
People who disconnect because they have a sliver of health left in a duel, that's another matter. One time I invaded someone and caught up with him on the way to a boss door, and he just did the pointing emote towards it. He clearly wanted to just go fight the boss so I waved and dipped out.
On that note, trying to read another player's motivations solely through gestures and general body language continues to be one of the coolest things about the series.
A lot of people I've invaded don't seem to know the kick exists - strangely satisfying killing them with a guard break when they think they're completely safe >
Onion questions.
Also, I FINALLY made it through that fucking dungeon. Christ. I hate jailers, basically ran past that last part. That was hell.
I left Siegfried down a well a while ago, will he still be there? I had no idea what he wanted.
I've probably gone and killed him, the poor sod

Anyone found anything like the Rusted Iron Ring from DkS1 to run faster in high water?

This happens too but Yeah I think if people don't want to be invaded then they should play offline. And ofcourse if people are right in front of the boss you can be nice and Let them go but otherwise it's fair game.
And Yeah I love communicating through emotes.
Stay back, use a bow, aggro only the one in view; makes it manageable instead of garbage.

So is that P
boss the harderest in the game or the game just got real now? I have been melting bosses easy (CS went down in like 10 seconds lol) with my raw and now sharp estoc, no shield used at all through the game. But this guy is just another level. I got 1/3rd of him down and when I thought I'm starting to get the hang of it, the second phase kicked in and I said nope.
Thankfully seems I missed a location (
) but even a bit leveled up, and probably one more +1 in my weapon it won't be much easier.

I told her and now she sells titanite shards. Not sure what happens the other way.
