Margit doesn't let you play the game

[Biltree]

This is one of my first Dark Souls esque games I've played (Excluding Sekiro) and out of all of them, Margit is legit aids to fight. He doesn't let you play the game, if you roll, you get punished, if you punish, you get punished and he has multiple moves one after the other that even if you dodge the first one; the second, third, fourth move will still hit you. I know this game is intended to be difficult but some of these bosses make it seem like the devs didn't even play test them before release.

you rushed to margarit didnt you? you ignored 90 percent of the game and didnt explore? if you did explore you didnt do it enough. theres like so many mini bosses and gear. go back out and explore more. go further out. find more smithing stones. upgrade your weapon more. level up. dont rush to the boss guarding the mid/end game castle point

literally solod him first try, like unironically. Without roaming around, googled first boss went straight there.

Yea, and I just beat this game while simultaneously typing this.

I mean its the truth. Should probably learn to accept that not everyone sucks at games.

It took me a lot of tries until I went exploring and leveled up to around 15 as a wretch. His moveset is ridiculous for an early boss, and summoning backfires since it increases his health and the NPC dies fast anyways. Funny enough I beat godrick first try using spirit jellyfish+the girl summon and the reduvia dagger. She was whooping his ass while i shot out the bleed special skill using the dagger. I feel like I cheesed.

Margit is a required boss because you need to kill him to get to Godrick. But you don't have to kill him now, the world is still open to you even if you avoid him for now.

Gah! I'm having a hard time with this boss too. I've played most of the other Souls games, but I've always been mediocre at best when it comes to Souls games. ^.^'

get good.

the summon npc with wolves got me over the edge

Patches sells an item that stuns the boss twice for several seconds.

[Humpypants]

he's pretty garbage to fight. Took me awhile to realize that he's just a quick time event without prompts. he looks cool, the animations are awesome, but you don't have to get good, you just have to press the quick time event button at the right time and not get greedy.

he's a pretty poorly designed fight compared to the open world and dungeon bosses I've seen so far

[cAipi_rInHa]

got killed one time, on secod try i had a guy standing in front the boss portal to summon a mage buddy. with that guy and wolf summons it became super easy, had no aggro 80% of the time.

Going to tell you all this before they nerf it. If you get Ancestral Summon(The One that can Melee or Shoot a really long range Arrow. You get him from Killing The Reindeer. Easy Boss but a pain to unlock. Just die spam rush the Pilllars and light them!) He can solo Margit.

You have to cast it as soon as you get in the room. Don't move forward. The Warrior will use his bow attack and Margit will never move as long as you don't engage him.

I found this out by accident. The bow guy is so op. He was hitting Margit for 61. Took maybe 7 minutes.

P.S. I got the item from Patches but I didn't know how it worked.

[Hank the Skank]

I really struggled on Margit. It took a bunch of attempts and I just beat him with like a sliver of health left. I one shot what's-his-nuts, the final boss of the castle with the fire and dragon head arm.

Or the twin maiden husks at the hub. I offed patches, then gave his item to the husks and now they sell his stuff. I haven't even seen the boss yet, I found a roundabout way to just go around Stormveil castle and skip the boss fights. :D

People complaining about Margit can literally just go around him and play on...

You're supposed to "go elsewhere and level" when the challenge seems to hard. Same thing with the Tree Sentinel (the first enemy you see in the open world). No one will beat him right out of the gate. You're not supposed to.
