Another Third Lamb topic.

[bluehawk188]

So I;m a lv 48 hunter. Boss beats me like a drum, sometimes before I can even get a hit out.

Am I about 50 levels too low for this boss?

[William Wave]

There are two ways in your case: either use a heavy tower shield, or drop load percentage below 75% and learn dodging.

Ok, I'm done. I love the game but I'm friggin done. This boss just does NOT want to die. I jump and hit him, he finds a way to get me. I roll through him, he finds a way to kill me. I gained two more levels, he kills me. I change weapons to a spear, use either fire or arcane on it, he shrugs it off and kills me.

I hate cheap bosses in games.

[William Wave]

If others can beat this boss, so can you. Git gut, that's all. :)

Oddly enough, I think most would pick something like the dragon or wyrm as being somewhat cheap. But like any game like this extra levels aren't going to make up for a lack of skill. If you're struggling now 5-10-30 levels won't make a difference outside of health and stamina. That said Lamb is one of few bosses where his behavior can effect overall challenge.

FINALLY!
I figured out what I was doing wrong, apart from playing the game.

I didn't treat this as a souls like game and chose a class. I NEVER do that. I ALWAYS go depreived/wretched or whatnot. So I rerolled and made a pauper, this games version it seems, and have been having a FAR easier time with it. Boss still gave me trouble, but using a Tachi +4, a set of light armor and a decent amount of dex plus pitchfire, he finally went down.

If you are talking about the one on the Castle of Storms, then that was an easy fight. Slower attacks and MUCH easier to dodge. Plus I feel hit didn't hit as hard.

That and you can have a set that can negate most of the fire damage too.

[Bankai9212]

The issue is trying to hit him, as his AI will either keep flying back and forth with fire breath giving you no time to attack outside of arrows. A good portion of bosses in the game are like that. Hanged men fight can be pretty annoying also.

So you just swapped gameplay styles. This game, like other souls games the class doesn't dictate you build/character.

???????
what the hell are you talking about?
it zero matters which class you choose.
the only thing that changes is that you maybe have to grind salt for 20 more minutes to unlock a skill another class has.

Third lamb beat the crap out of me the first time too.

And then I got to the witch of the lake...

I've beaten it at level 25 before. Make sure to craft/upgrade your weapon. Weak to slash, fire, and arcane. Jaws, and Tachi are probably the 2 easiest weapons to use against it. Join Splendor, and buff with Goldenwine. Learn his moveset. It gains a lightning followup attack in it's later phases of the fight. If you wear armor use Crimson set. Try to keep equip load under 50%.

Hey this is just what I use with my sword mage build. I did not find this boss hard and was wondering what the issue was.

I just bait the lightning and roll through into slashing. Trickle on the magic while I recover kiting him with fire. Watch for that distance jump.

Ok, whoever said that the Witch of the Lake was harder in here lied to me. Just beat her in 1/4 the amount of tries it took me to beat the Third Lamb on the first time.

Well, you're exception, not the rule :P

[bluehawk188]

And now even the Unskinned and the Architect. Took me only 5 tries as I didn't catch onto the Architects AoE circle traps which were killing me at first.

That and I forgot how to fight two bosses in tandem. This games version of Orenstien and Smough.

[bluehawk188]

Ok so I might have just gotten dumb lucky but I got the Nameless God in one try. So either I got lucky or the boss is even easier than some of the earlier ones.
