How long did you need to beat Pieta?

I am not new to soulslike but damn for some reason I struggle more with this boss than with the first bosses in Lies Of P. How long did you need to beat Pieta?

Like 30 minutes, she sits after 2-3 sword swipes for quite a long time. Just dashed and waited for that moment.

Lol like an hour. I was being too aggressive just should have taken it slow since her attacks are easily readable. But I got her.

About 30-40 minutes. Came down to learning the right frame to parry her into riposte state and lobbing fireballs during her summons.

Did like 8 tries on her and decided to go to sleep, I'm so deprived to get a couple of hours in before tomorrow's shift.

And I mean it's oddly hard, I've ran through the Souls games, ER, Bloodborne, Remnants and it feels weird how it's so hard to get into this game

I thin it's just getting used to how the game forces a single dodge pattern for her attack cycles, instead of her flowing from state to state based on your movements.
Also her beam feels dumb when you need to first initiate dash before you can roll.

First time. Got killed and went into Umbra realm then finished her off.

the borked sword i had did almost no damage when whacking her.
it took me like 3 tries to switch to parry mode as i figured out the borked sword is classed as a dagger and deals very high critical damage.

after that it took like 5 or 6 tries.

Still getting used to the controls I still try to sprint with the B button and its driving me nuts.

I would say between 6-8 tries. After like the first 3, I was constantly getting her down to 3/4 or less. Just took a few times to learn the pattern of her attacks. And I was being a bit too aggressive.

I guess it took me a little bit more than a hour to beat her. What a great boss and what a great game. This looks so epic. The negative reviews are really sad. This will be a masterpiece with optimized performance updates

First try 60%, second go : 100% :)

Thats what killed me most of the time. My brain is still on old souls style of running. Dodged too many times accidentally.

I got her on my 4th try. It's all about parries.

Gotta come back to here and thank you for the tip for parrying
I thought that obviously you can't parry a holy ass radiant claymore, seems like you can and parrying is super strong and safe in this game, logged back in and beat her without even going into the void mode lol

[Leodagan]

I'm in the process. Damn she's tough. Cant damage her pass 50%

[Leon]

I got her like with 7-8 tries, but deam, I really hope that, she was an "exception" and there's no tendency with bosses having 4 attack combos with 360 degrees swipes by 3 meters long weapons.
