Champion's gravetender is the worst damn boss in the entire series.

Why does it even exist.

He's a lot harder on higher ng cycles. Like a lot of the bosses that are a pushover on your first play through. You never bother to learn the fight bc it seems simple, and later you find yerself getting one shot by attacks you never learned to counter.

That wolf kills phantoms like nothing else when I summon in help.

Agree that fight is poorly tuned for ng.

Someone got rekt, basically. If not, then it's a troll post OR the OP hasn't killed any of the bosses in any of the games.

Gank squad from DS2. Lazy design, idiotic A.I.
Curse-Rotted Greatwood. Just -terrible- as a fight. Hit a tree that has a ballsack and spits AIDS.
Bed of Chaos. Yea yea, it's for the lore... Well how about you make a DECENT lore fight, then?
Moonlight Butterfly. Only thing going for her is the soothing music.
Royal Rat Vanguard. Ugh...
Covetous Demon. Yea. It's not even optional.
Pinwheel. Again, not even optional.
...And the list goes on and on.

So this post is either a troll post or he got rekt and should git gud or he has no clue what he's talking about.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. Vanguard was okay if a waste of space, but Rat Authority was the one who was a bit of a jerk to me.

Combine this with it being a point in time where I didn't quite yet know how they changed I-frames (Because everyone was busy telling me "LOL, dodging is 100% skill based! This game is just more hardcore than DS1 which you just finally beat!").

With the Warrior start. Who has less I-frames than a DS1 fat roll by default.

Man, that fight was still annoying. But it was like night and day once I started turning to google and wikis, and found out how to get back my I frames.

I quite enjoyed it. Maybe it was because I was on ng+ or I was using a terrible build with a raw infused sword, but it took me a good 4 tries and felt pretty cool doing so.

I think they wanted a excuse to throw in that beautiful gravetender soundtrack ingame.

Bed of chaos wasn't a gank boss. And the fact bed of chaos was actually important to the lore of the game. Gravetender though, means absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nothing to the lore at all.

Rose tinted nostalgia detected.
Bed of chaos was bad and you should feel bad.

It was interesting to see players get eaten by Jabba the Butt and to are them come out completely unequipped of everything.

[Icelus]

It's the best boss in the series!


PS: I'm just here for the

He could do that? He was so slow that I've never seen him grab someone. But even covetous is a good boss comparing to "the congregation"

[META]

Yes he is a pretty terrible boss but I don't think he is the worst.

I've never understood the Gravekeeper hate. It's not a great boss, but it's not terrible imo.

just opinion

I was playing a DS1 and DS2 more than 500hr each. Now im playing DS3 and if someone asked me to name the main new feature in this game i would say its gank!!
Mobs gank you, bosses gank you, players gank you... in the end that is all what developers comes up with at the end of the DS series. And its SOO F^%&$% ANNOYING!!!!!!!!

Yes, in previous games some bosses are ganking too (Hi Capra!!) but it was not so bad.
I can beat em all, i even finished a couple sl1 runs in DS3 but for me bosses like gravekeeper is not fun at all.
