What level should i be at?

[Guana]

Im a real noob this is my first souls game and ive just killed Rennala im at lvl 50 and im running a faith confessor with the schyth. Just now got to the sentinel and struggling.
I dont want to powerlevel and make the game way to easy for me but i dont want to spend the next 10 hours fighting a miniboss.

whats ur vigor

Sounds ok - maybe do some underground areas next or Southern Caelid? As a guideline, if you explore everything, you should always be slightly overleveled for the content. So going from there you can perhaps regulate that as you wish.

And good point from Alby - for mid-level, aim for 30-40 vigor.

ive got 24 in vigor.

Level 50 is low for completing Raya Lucaria, at least compared to where I was when I did it.

If I were you, I would go explore other areas and level up naturally while doing so. You'd be surprised how quickly you gain rune levels by exploring optional areas, like the underground zones.

Second phase Renala has very little defence, so you'll chew through her real easy. I managed to one shot her second phase and was surprised how easy it was.

You can't go wrong levelling vigor. At a point in the game, health doesn't matter anymore either way.

Sentinel as in "Draconic Tree Sentinel" outside the gates to Leyndell? That boss is a massive difficulty spike (the stuff beyond him is generally much easier) and I've seen a lot of newbie players get completely flattened by him in co-op...

- Having like 700+ HP will make him much easier (around that point you don't get oneshot by his attacks, which is the main issue in this fight)
- He's weak to poison so if you can apply that and just focus on staying alive things will get a bit easier (he does a cool pose when he first notices you which gives you enough time for a full dragon breath casting, or running up to him and unleashing a couple regular attacks). It takes two full poison durations to kill him so you'll probably still want to do some regular damage in the meantime though.
- Just like regular Tree Sentinel, being on horseback and doing hit-and-run attacks is pretty safe (just watch out for his fire breath projectiles and hitscan lightning bolts, those need manual dodging instead of just moving quickly)

Potentially you could also lure him closer to the golem archers and hope they hit him? It's a very risky strat though and he warps back if he gets too far from his arena so not sure if it's worth even trying.

There’s not really a perfect leveling scale, it’s all dependent on how much optional content you do, if you accidentally lose a large number of runes for whatever reason.
I feel the best way to approach it, is to abstain from leveling if you want greater challenge, and if you’re struggling, level up.
It’s all relative to your own experience, you can beat this game and level 7 or level 700.
