...makes me feel like choir boy. Holy molestation batman!

It's a great fight though. Really interesting mechanics. No idea how I'm going to beat him.

He s pretty weak to a lot of stuff....maybe take a look at the wiki.I always found wikidot to be more reliable than Fextra. It s a shame they didn t do Elden Ring as well.
EDIT: if you re comfortable with parrying, critical strikes is one of the things he s weak to...

I appreciate the offer. I am not playing atm. Also, I don't know how to do coop on DS3. Let me give him a few more tries on my own.

It s not required really, just an extra help, but I really believe checking his many weaknesses online could give you a good edge, and you'll want any edge you can get on him.
Many of his combos are difficult to read and consciously memorise. In fact, IMO it s probably easier to fight him again and again, until something clicks and your moves, attacks and spacing will become second nature. He can be a tough cookie and it used to be a massive skill check wall for me....
After Elden Ring though, DS3 bosses feel way more manageable in my experience....

Good to know he's tough for others as well. Definitely the hardest boss so far for me.

One thing I like about DS3 over Elden Ring is the absence of such common summons.

In Elden Ring, the bosses are tough, but with the ding of a bell, I can employ easy mode.

The summon system in Elden Ring really kills the satisfaction for me.

I know what you mean. I have done runs with summons and runs without, it s always your choice.
