Fire giant is another cheap boss, yeah everything becomes garbage after the snow area

[Armando Broncas]

Outright cheap battle where everything is completely out of control, camera is all over the place, the hit boxes of his attacks are completely stupid broken, this trash boss makes any blocking completely unusable, you try torrent he makes it completely unusable, he has massive range on his attacks, he keeps moving away from you, spam constant fire attacks.

This is reminding me why exactly I can't stand this BS design anymore Im seriously done with this series, so done.

Im just going to finish this game and the DLC but I AM DONE with this absolute garbage game design.

Once again I will be blocking anyone trying to come at me with insults, attacks gaslighting etc.

I just defeated him, did it in my third attempt but i had to switch to a BLEED weapon and stop trying to use my shield, completely bullied out of my build, this game is a joke

It's a gimmick boss. Just tanky af. Why not use the perfume items to make your life a bit easier? Search the world, make a few bubble ones and the fight is much easier

Use black flame ritual ash of war next time. Melts a big guy like that in no time

Im done with this BS design, DS games were not like this at least not the first one, this stupid thing that you need to resort to cheese or switching your build entirely IM DONE WITH IT, IM DONE.

If he pulls out the shoveling attack while I'm riding to him I start laughing uncontrollably.
It is inevitable, it is coming, it makes me feel like a spec of dust in a vast void of space.

what does this have to do with asmongold?

Just chill m8. Take a step back, an hour out of the game, every boss is beatable , you just have to figure out how to beat it. When you finally get to DLC final boss you'll look back and consider fire giant a piece of cake. If you need to vent, this forum is prob the worst place you can pick, but who am i to tell you what to do in the end :P

Im done with this game design, im just done, never buying another game from this company again if its another souls, Sekiro 2 I would buy but only after making sure they are not doing the exact same thing they are doing in this game which is putting a load of cheap crap into it, never buying any of their games day one let alone preorders, im done, i will first inform myself and if what i see is bad then not buying anything.

all you need to do is hug the boss' legs and almost nothing can hit you.

I've got some bad news for you; there are at least a few bosses in the game that counter almost every build. Some of them give casters a bad time, some of them punish people who rely on dodge and can't take a hit, some of them punish colossal weapons while others punish the crazy person running around with just a knife. And some of them won't let you block - maybe they even need to be parried instead (though, funnily enough if your block build was correct you *could* block 90% of what this boss does easily).

Your problem is in assuming that builds are supposed to be rigid. In reality you are supposed to be using the full repertoire of tools at your command, and dodging is easily the most basic of those.

If you got this in only three attempts then i fail to see the issue here. You're supposed to have a hard time on bosses, three tries hardly warrants a meltdown.

Let me guess, Almondgolf told you this too?

I have finished the game before as a mage so I know for a fact how this game is designed to completely invaliate builds AND I HATE IT, Dark souls 1 was never like this, this is just abusive in so many levels, it's bad design and IM DONE WITH IT.

[Not Rawr]

This guy seriously cmae here to complain after dying <3 times to a boss. Seriously? Stop playing souls likes, they're not for you man.

I can't agree with that statement. Many of the bosses in DS1 punished faith and int builds. Heck, many of them punished different weapon types. Try and go at someone like Gwyndolin with a lightning bolt build and you're going to have a bad time.
