Wtf is wrong with these skeletons
Black knife catacombs. Sometimes they die instantly in one hit after the first down. Some times I smack 1k plus damage. I've tried sooooo many different timings I just literally have NO clue anymore.

Calm down mate, im not sure if it was in that catacombs, but, if the skeletons have black fire on them, then theres another enemy you have to kill for them to permanently die, similar to the catacombs in DS1.

I'm pretty sure this dungeon has 2 bosses actully lol if I remember right it's got a secret black knife boss I thought?

I'm not sure I've only found one boss, I don't want to go back there lol

I have a stone key, I wonder if that blocked door has something good.
If it is the one I'm thinking of maybe it's the 2nd boss? But if so it's a black knife with an equip that gives you FP on crits was quite useful early in my mage play.

There's also a gold NPC summon for the second boss, easy to overlook, but perhaps helpful.

I think that was the boss and that is one of the best talisman in the game, even for melee. I absolutely recommend doing that dungeon's other boss, unless you only spam R1 and never poise break for criticals or backstab.

I started using whips as my melee so I couldn't use it anymore :p
Hard to crit when your weapon cant lol
Sometimes you just have to strike them when they're already down, other times there will be necromancers who keep resurrecting them who you have to kill or the cycle never stops

Nah, all skeletons can be permanently killed without killing the necromancer. You just have to use the right damage sources. Thinking otherwise is a common misconception, not that I blame people because it isn't exactly obvious as one would think any holy source worked.

the Bone Melting Juice is a pro pick, just makes skeletons into dust with absolute ease~

I like the skeleton's that tap their heads. It's like the I dunked on you in basketball. I thought it weird at first, but it was kinda funny. The catacomb dungeons are just reskins of each other and have the same enemies. Each main area in the game I think dictates how powerful they are as you get farther into the dungeons.
