Corrupted Monk Is The Worst Boss I Have Ever Seen

[PlutonicHades]

Her animations are wonky, some of her attacks are broken and you can't deflect them. The icing on the cake is that only the first hit of a chain actually deals damage so, the fight takes for ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ever.

You can deflect all her attacks apart from the unblockables. Posture damage you deal to her increases as her vitality goes down, so you might want to bring divine confetti for the damage boost.

Can she block thrust attacks? You can try lowering her hp with them.

Best way for me was just attacking her after each mikiri counter or at the end of her combo. U could try using thrust attacks as an alternative but I’m not sure if you have enough time.

Just execute her twice early into the fight, and then spam fireworks.

She'll die in 2 minutes or less if you do that.

Just to clarify, the attacks i said i could not deflect was not a slash thrust or grab. It was a normal chain attack that i believe was bugged. Also, the boss is easy. I was simply stating that it is poorly designed and not fun.

That can be said for the vast majority of the bosses in this game tbh

Hit and run baby. Don't bother deflecting, it takes longer than baiting out moves and hitting her.

A friendly warning: If you don't like the corrupted monk, you might want to stop playing now, or one of the later bosses might give you a heart attack.

This boss ♥♥♥♥♥♥' rules. Every time.

[PlutonicHades]

I stand my ground that this boss is boring. And as stated in a prior comment, it isn't hard. I have already beat new game plus. It is just so slow and repetitive. At least you can skip a phase.

[Efesell]

I just love any boss I can parry to death.

[Evilsod]

Not gonna lie, this boss gave me a seriously hard time.
In the end I switched to Nightjar and every time it made an attack I'd swoop in for the hit and run away again. Eventually killed it by virtue of draining its health for the instant deathblow

Really cool boss but holy crap did I suck at it. The only attack that I really didn't understand was there was one uppercut swipe that for some reason would always seem to hit me through a block despite not being a 'danger' attack.

I think if I fought it again I'd be better off. I was really sucking at O'Rin too until I changed up how I was playing the fight. Only took me a few more attempts to finish her then. I was focussed on chipping away health rather than going blow for blow and draining posture.

Are you talking about the first Corrupted Monk you fight? Sorry no spoilers but you ain't seen nothin' yet.

I recommend watching a strategy guide on how to beat her as you may be overlooking something important that may help you overcum her.

pretty simple and fun boss,Love this game because you have so much options how to fight them unlike dark souls only rolling myself to sleep

[VIPEN]

Fighting on slopes is the best darksouls, having wide sweeps into that just makes the design even better
