Is there any consequence for fighting the Dancer early?

[Cumbusted]

I don't wanna spoil anything regarding how to fight her early but it should be fairly obvious to someone who knows the game.
I've been wondering if I'll be barred from a questline or something like that if I kill her as soon as possible.

nope, just unlocks an end game area provided you have the skill to beat her.

As long as you talked to Emma and got the way of blue covenant item, thats the only thing you could miss potentially.

I see, awesome~
I'm gonna smash my head against her till she dies then.
It'll be a nice boon for running through the rest of the game having killed her and farmed a little bit up ahead.
Thanks, bud! :D
By the way, she can't be parried right? Only staggered and riposted?

[lpnlizard27]

ive never seen anyone parry her.

Only stagger and riposte.

If you need any help to get past her; set a password, advise your SL and ask on this forum. Many will help you.

I was about to ask honestly.

I'm gonna try her out a bunch on my own and then see how I feel.
This game is one I feel much more comfortable playing on my own to be totally honest.
I hope that doesn't come off as arrogant or anything, that's not my intent.

Not at all and no offence taken. Good luck, hope you kick some Dancer butt :)

Nah its cool. Dark souls is a single player game.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! Masochism!
Besides her grab being really dumb sometimes and basically 1-shotting me she's not all that bad, some panicky R1 spam with a fire longsword +3 did it for me.
Then I got ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up real good by a buffed up knight and his trusty cleric so I think I'll stop here for now. That was a good 100k souls super early for me though~!

Congrats dude, well done!!

I'm pretty good at smacking my face into things till they give up.
Problem with being such a low level is you can't guard or roll a lot so the pillars actually help a whole lot more when she spins to win, if you can't make it behind one you're kinda done for unless you get lucky. I think besides that and the grab she's okay though once you know her dance moves.
