honestly the best thing u can do is learn his patterns , ( i know this is obvious , not trying ot be a ♥♥♥♥) and just roll evry attack. Once you learn his attacks you will never ever get hit by him. He is so slow

Get you AGL to at least 100.Makes dodging his attacks much easier.Also,dont try to hit him more that two times in a row and get some distance instead.

He was difficult when i first got to him but now he seems to be one of the easiest bosses in the game. like Dougal said dont be greedy with your hits, only go in for one or two and then back off, make sure you have enough stamina to roll twice as that should get you out of the damger zone. Most of his moves have a big wind-up so at the first hint of attack get out of dodge.

Weakness: Despite the fact that he is surrounded by flaming pools of oil he seems to be weak to fire. Magic and Lightening do moderate damage as well

If you need help i can also be in the area fairly shortly. Will need your SM however.

The rotten is weak against lightning, big surprise.
I don't think Agility 100 is needed for this one. Most of his attacks can be avoided by just staying out of range. Opening afterwards is usually still large enough for 1 or 2 attacks, depending on your weapon.
Of course 100 AGI has never hurt anyone.

He seems to be incredibly weak to thrust-type attacks. If you can summon any NPC then just try to stay behind him and poke while NPC is tanking his attacks for you.

man, he's easy, just circle around him, keep yourself from fire pools, and dodge his attacks, namely the triple downward cut and left hand grab (and stay away from his blast), otherwise he's safe to attack very often
somewhere after the worms and before the entrance to boss is also located npc's sign

use a +10 greatsword 2 handed. if you can manual aim, attack his knife arm with the r1 attack, otherwise spam r1. summon the archer guy to do a little damage while youre dodgeing attacks, and occasionally draw the rottens attacks.
