Why are the Bosses so easy?

[cRYZ]

Im almost done with the Game and i have to say that the bosses without 1-2 exceptions are waaaaay to easy to be honest. How are fellow Dark Souls players thinking about it?

[Kashra Fall]

The ease of the game depends on the player and their usage of the game's mechanics. Are you a heavy armor? Are you light armor? Do you dodge? Do you poise through hits? Do you block and guard counter? Do you use summons? Do you use magic? Do you spam items, etc. One can't really call Souls games hard, because they give you so much versatility and control of the situation. People MAKE them hard through their choices of trying to prove to themselves. "I can beat this boss, I can do it!" and proceed to slam their head against the wall for two hours for as the soul's community has dubbed, failing to "Git Gud."

I've had no issues with the game as a str build with 26 str, a morning star and a shield. Stagger is extremely strong, mixed with bleed, but I've watched others with similar builds, or completely different ones, sit at a boss I first tried, for more than two hours at a time. Different strokes, different folks.

Going for a Bleed Dexterity Strength Build. I dont Summon at all, and i use a 2hand Bleed Blade.

Bleed is likely what is making things easy for you xD. It's so damn strong.

Post Youtube videos of yourself easily beating the bosses, or you're just another troll.

Magrit, no.

Any sub bosses aside from the first cat statue goblin thing cause I started as a Wretch? yes.

Bleed is likely what is making things easy for you xD. It's so damn strong.

You have not seen a Mage Build yet right? Ive seen them killing Bosses in 1/4 of the Time that i need.

I'm getting powned 24/7, but it got better after I started checking out secret caves and what not, which provided me with a loot of loot nd upgrades. It's very well balanced, given the open world. Much harder than DS3 over all.

[Lucatiel]

Hoenstly? It's pretty hard and brutal, probably my most challenging souls experience yet (and I platinumed all of them including Sekiro)

[Bumblebro]

How many hours do you have in souls games in general?
Because the hard truth is, if you are a veteran and familiar with the mechanics then you will probably never get that noob feeling ever again and everything will feel a lot easier to you.

Magic is always strong, but some souls members consider it the "coward's way." I find it as a utility to beat the game/boss. Play how you like. My friend summoner the golden sorc+a skeleton army to fight Magrit. I didn't judge him lol.

Speaking of which... those dungeon mini-bosses are pretty low effort and boring, except for the cat statue, that one was kinda memorable for how bad it is.

You'll be happy to know it is reused in another catacomb, but they add 4 goblins with it. So if ya liked it the first time, you'll love it the second!
