Dark souls 3 : How to easily kill dancer at low level
I've seen many people struggling to kill the dancer at low level.

However, the best way to kill her isn't before vordt with the sword master, neither around level 20.

Instead, get around level 30-35 (dont worry, there will still be summon signs if you don't want to kill her alone)
Then, proceed to get about 7-8 estus flask, the 2 bone shards that are located near the dilapitaded bridge and farron keep.

To kill the dancer easily, you will need Yuria. Once you get her, you must buy a Dark Hand.
Once you have it, equip it and you can go dancer, either alone or preferably with a caster (or another guy with a dark hand !). The dancer is very vulnerable to dark, and she will get completely cheesed by the dark hand (around 150damage per hit)
For me circling her on the right has worked pretty well, hitting her legs/booty.
Once you get a catch of her combos, she is extremely easy :)


Good luck !


PS: Don't upgrade your weapon top much, or you won't be able to see summon signs/invade anyone at low level !

Pretty obvious to use the fu*king dark hand.
Unless your intent is to send nubs into the hell of Lothric Castle unprepared, I take issue with your unsolicited "advice" for nubs to break sequence and beat the Dancer earty.

Why not just buy it from her instead of killing her and ruining a questpath?

Not pretty obvious to use the fu*king dark hand for 95% of people I've seen trying to kill her at 20-40.

Well you can farm the darkwraith at the tower on the wall for souls, sure

So what great disaster will befall humanity if nubs are left to their own devices and learn on their own not to ♥♥♥♥ with the Dancer at SL20 with a +1 Longsword?

Aren't you just overleveled if you're laying a sign out at Vordt and getting summoned by people trying to fight the Dancer? That's what the black crystal is for.

That's like saying "well, you can farm the tundra of Canada and Siberia for wheat, that's why it's the indisputed breadbasket of global civilization."

Dark hand will not drop if you kill her. You then have to buy it from the handmaid. No difference in price.

30-35 is not a low level and by that point dark hand is not really outclassing all the rest.

I regularly defeat her using a bandit knife, bleeding works pretty well for damage and the attack speed is pretty good too.

Recognising her attacks is pretty important though.

I've corrected that thank you.
Even at level 30 with a +3 weapon, dark hand will still hit her for twice that damage, for almost no stamina

At first I tried to kill her with bleed too ( uchi) however I needed to hit her like 20 times to proc a bleed, will try again with a bandit knife

She is easy with Dark hand. I don't have much trouble with her now. Probably because she is one of the bosses I have a huge amount of experience with.

If you can get Bleeding on your bandit knife (infusion or imbued) it'll make a big difference, the trick is the pure speed and stamina use of the bandit knife, you can land a huge amount of bleed on her before her swings come.
I thought using dank hand at low lvl dancer was known to most, since most ppl I meet at that lvl range already has it.
