Screw the Ancient Wyvern man
The Ancient Wyvern boss fight is probably the dumbest boss fight in all of Dark Souls 3. To even call it a boss fight is a bit of a stretch, considering you're meant to dodge his attacks until you can get one good hit on him with a plunging attack. I'd be fine with that, though, if the fight weren't broken and annoying as all hell. I get that you have to aim a bit with the plunging attack, but considering my weapon's (A Reaper / Scythe) texture can go through the Wyvern's head and still not count as a hit is ridiculous. And the fact that his fire can go through the final platform, yes, through a stone effing pillar, and hit you as you line up an attack and knock you off is absolutely absurd. I'm only forcing myself through the fight right now to get the DreamChaser's ashes later on in the area.

All the bosses in ds3 are dumb. But among a girl that comes to fight you but then spends the fight running away and hiding, a guy that flies on his dragon thing all day while you're battling the camera and a horrible arena that denies any depth perception, a casual stroll through some common enemies while someone breathes some fire at you every now and then seems like least dumb dumb boss.

What's the girl you are talking about?

Also Nameless King camera issues? Why are people having so many issues with it? I fought him countless times and never had camera issues. I am using Steam controller, but my friend with KB+M never had a problem either. Maybe xbox and ps controllers just suck for this game?

I never had camera problems either (KB+M), and idk what girl he/she is referencing. Def not Friede, she's super aggressive. An invader, maybe? Is Aldrich a girl?

Xbox 360 controller here. I dont think i complained about the camera in the past. It has been a little since i last fought him though.


Aldrich is a male.

It turns out that if you run to the other end of the stone walkway you start on and lure the dragon towards you, you can jump attack its head and you'll kill it instantly without having to run around the Snake Maze

The dragon thing dies in 3-4 sunlight spears... So it's dies really fast. I didn't even have time to battle the camera.

You are also supposed to wait to attack it so at the right time you can stagger it.
The real boss of the Ancient Wyvern fight is that Chainaxe Man-serpent ;-;

You can always fight him properly instead of taking the boring way out. Go grab a bow and shoot him down while running about the level.

I want to see a video of someone doing this titled 'The manly way to play'
