Astel boss fight
So I'm trying to fight this guy and damn does he hurt. Does anyone have any ideas on how to beat this guy? Any tips and advice will help. I'm a melee class and dying to the move where he lifts himself up along with you then slams you back down. Is there a tell for this move as I notice to late.

If you're talking about his grab, I'm pretty sure he opens his jaws real wide before the grab.

Not that one. I luckily saw the sign for that. Its like a gravity well move. I'm bad at describing it so sorry about that.

Basically don't get greedy. Almost all his attacks are AoEs so always be ready to back off. And always hit his head preferably with a good wa or at least a jumping attack.

Yeah, I basically poked her to death with Great Eepee. Walk in, poke poike, back off. Wait for opening, walk in, poke poke, back off.

He is the only boss that makes me want to throw my controller around, the hitbox on his stupid head infuriates me.

the other one is in some mine. And the reward is a sorcery. Can safely skip that one.

I might have to come back to this guy. I haven't even been able to get him half way yet. Though I do appreciate the advice and tips.
