Obviuosly the first. Also dont spoil bosses for people.

He is the first tough boss imo, it took me a fgew tries but just stay on it. Respec and try something new if youre getting pounded.

He's just strong. Every soulslike has that one boss who serves as the first real skill check and ends up chasing away the more casual players. I'd say Tiger is that boss.

Is this the tiger surrounded by a pool of blood? Let me see if I can remember some tips for him for you...

[Nvth1s]

Here is what I learned to fight this tiger.

1st, the blood counts as water *hint
2nd. Take turns, his turn, your turn, don't go for 4 hit light combo unless you are REALLY good at perfect dodge
3rd. Don't spam dodge, hit it as perfect dodge or just before strikes (His timing is designed to punish spam dodge
4th. The sword he uses is where the damage gets ugly, dodge, dodge, dodge, wait for spin, dodge.

I actually found that boss quite a bit easier than the snake boss.

Use the medicines you have pre-fight for a buff, immobilize when possible, use the transformation.

Don't forget you have some time to drink/refresh buffs if you do not attack during immobilize.

The biggest thing about this guy is he punishes dodge spamming, so you really have to learn his attacks...
The attacks that are hardest to dodge are his ability where he crouches for a second then charges towards you in a sword flash and his stone counter.

However almost every other attack combo he has ends with him jumping in the air and doing a landing slam attack on you...

Learn to spot the ending of the combo (where he uses his jumping slam) and punish him after you dodge that...

He is most vulnerable after his jumping slam and his stone counter (if dodged)

he's strong but beatable. It's ok to die, study his attack pattern and dodge accordingly. You can do it dude !

[Obtuse Moose]

Had a harder time with the bear and snake tbh.

The only attack you truly need to dodge is his sword dash. Use the audio cue to dodge, you'll be too late if you really on visual. That attack can 1 hit kill you.

Everything else you can sort of tank. His punch x2 sweep has a dodge catch on his 2nd punch.

Also, he likes to stroll around, so charge attacks work well, especially pole and thrust.

Its a patience fight, if you can get minor hits in, build your meter and wait for the freeze to recharge, you should have a decent chance. Don't just rush in and try to bash him to death quickly.
