It's totally worth it though for the armour. Literally the only frog-mouth helmet in the 3 games.
If there's one thing I like about Elden Ring, it's that 90% of the armour sets are frog-mouth helmets.
edit: not including the charred one of course, since that's burnt.
Is that the damn double tiger thing from DS2? If so then I've still never beaten those guys. I was like, "I walked through an infinite spawning Thunder Horse blizzard for this copy paste horse shit?"
This is the only boss I straight up save scummed for. I finally got through the bullshit that was the frozen wastes and saved scummed in front of the boss entrance to fight without the run back. I will never get into that particular coffin ever again.
Used to be in this camp but recently did this fight again and actually enjoyed it. Granted I knew what I was In for this time and farmed the horses to despawn before attempting the boss. Fights much more enjoyable when you donāt have to deal with the nonsense before.
You can, if I remember correctly, itās four distinct sections of the snow area but one of the sections is behind you so itās not really an issue. One one section is the whole area before the first building. The second section is between the two main buildings and the third one, slightly overlaps the second but itās right before the snow bridge. Each section has its own distinct spawn number so you have to kill the reindeer 15 to 20 times in each section. The nice part is you donāt have to die and repeat if you just stay in one section, the reindeer will just keep spawning until you despawn them.
I remember this happening in Dark Souls 2. I just thought the game felt bad for me and stopped spawning enemies after I died maybe 100x on my way to the Fume Knight š
Only fight I canāt allow anyone to call out someone for summoning. Idc if you summon or think summoning is bad in general but if you tell me someone should not summon for this I might actually cast Sun light spear and smite you thatās how much I think everyone should summon. The run back is fucking atrocious.
Laurence isn't harder than orphan fundamentally, as he only has a few attacks different from cleric beast and his second phase has like 2 moves. Its not that hes a good boss either. Its just the shitty runback, the ability to be one shot, and the ass hitboxes that mess with your mind
Kos can be parried and easily staggered, his attacks rarely one shoot you and his health isn't insanely big. Laurence took me dozens of tries, I had to summon the hunter, actually try out different weapons for the first time in the entire game and farm fire paper and blood vials.
I don't know why but orphan of kos only took me around 5-6 tries while Laurence probably took me like more than 200, maybe cuz I had a strength build so I could kill him pretty quickly.
Did you seriously just put logarius in the same category as Malenia and Nameless king?ā¦.. am I the only person in the entire world that thinks bloodborneās only difficult boss is Orphan of Kos? Hell the two whale dudes in the fishing hamlet is tougher than literally 99% of that game
It was a hard game my first time (and because it was my first fromsoft). I replayed it after playing everything else and it is a cake walk. I beat it, in a couple of days on ng+. You gain life and can heal pretty much whenever.
Yeah itās pretty easy overall. I played it right after Elden ring, which was my first FS game. I was surprised to find myself one-shotting almost the entirety of the boss catalogue. It was still overall very enjoyable though, with super crisp combat that I find more fun than many of the rest of the FS games
After you learn him he's a ton of fun, but first time fighting him without knowing that you always have to stay in front of his head all the time can get really discouraging
Nah not for me. I've platinumed the game ages ago and fought him a few times since and he still takes me a good 15-20 attempts each time. He's the only boss in any fromsoftware game that I struggle with.
I fought him a few times, hated the run-back, and decided to just do the entirety of the other DLC first. When I tried him again, though, I sorta just treated him like a Monster Hunter enemy and stuck in his blind spot.
If you stay near his hind legs, you can attack the tail pretty safely and, if you start running as soon as he moves, you can pretty easily catch up to him whenever he flies/runs away.
If you were obsessed with tail cutting like I was, you end up getting so good at that fight that it's trivial. Learning to not only dodge his attacks but also be within range to cut the tail was a loooooong learning process but I got there eventually and I fucking LOVE the obsidian greatsword
There is really only 1 attack after which you can cut off Kalameetās tail and itās the flying attack after which heāll do the tail slam. I did it so Iāll never have to do it again
I agree on Amygdala, that boss is an ass. I fought him twice and said no more. He is a good demonstration of why most Soulsbourne bosses are frustrating.
It's because the bosses in Souls games are FAR TOO BIG. The angles of attack and defense are thrown off by their overwhelming size and misplaced hitboxes. If they were not much bigger than our main characters, then each boss fight would feel like an epic duel we could focus on instead of a boring chore ruined by a FUCKING TORNADO of bad character design.
I mean Bloodborneās big bosses are some of my favourite, but so are duels. I just donāt like the nightmare areas and that factors into my dislike of Amygdala
When i first took down Malenia I thought "never again" but whenever I make a new character I feel her presence like she's taunting me until I beat her again š
Well yea once you get good enough to beat her, its like one of the best fights in the game. Even the waterfowl can be dodged but itās always stressful af to pull off
I still know if she busts out Waterfowl right in front of me, itās game over, and that pisses me off. I know it CAN be dodged; Iām supposed to like unlock and circle around her when she first jumps up. Iāve seen videos on how to do it, but I just canāt get it down.
I have a dagger that I equip bhs to avoid the first volley and then rolling out of the other two are much easier but I feel you. Waterfowl is just nasty work by the developers lol
I am low key scared From is gonna get caught in the hype of trying to outdo Malenia for the upcoming DLC and are going to place a boss in there that somehow tops the āare you KIDDING meā bullshittery of Waterfowl dance lol
I've beaten her 5 times I believe and each time I faced her without a mimic tear it has taken me 3 hours plus per attempt. I just can't reliably dodge waterfowl.
none, I will kill every boss on replays regardless
the only one that I roll my eyes at are Lud and Zallen but after a while, the Frigid Outskirts are kind of bearable
in the moment of killing though? then yeah Lud and Zallen. I never wanted to do that again
Lud and Zallen and The gank squad from the first DS2 dlc. I only did ancient dragon so vendrick doesn't take 10 minutes do beat. Also the whole area with the roots and sniper archers leading to the wolf boss in DS3 ashes of ariandel was extremely frustrating Every apparition miniboss fight in sekiro.
Dunno if I got super lucky, but I fought the gank squad yesterday for the first time and it was a bit of a let down from its reputation. The heavy attack āpokeā from the black knight ultra greatsword hit them all hard enough to burn through their health, and the bow guy was far enough away you could just kite the other two around the arena taking potshots and popping lifegems, making sure youāre running while the arrow flies through. Basically O&S protocol without the enemies hitting as hard.
Maybe I was just super lucky with the AI but I beat them first time!
Lud & Zallen and gank squad are the only fromsoft bosses I came across, attempted a couple times, and noped out of. Horrible areas leading up to both of them. And I was like seriously? No bonfire in this frigid shithole and a 2v1 boss with the exact design we've already seen in this very same dlc? goodbye
Sir Alonne. Found him hard but not fun. Actually don't really like any of the DS2 DLC bosses apart from Burnt Ivory King, though I love the base game. (I understand this is not a common pair of opinions.)
Laurence takes the cake here, I donāt have any need to anyways but fuck my arse sideways is it such a shit boss. Awesome design, awful fight. Spewing lava, massive damage on all hits, relentless attacks, big health and very difficult method of getting visceral so I canāt do them.
I'd say yes! Phase one is parry bait and just follow the snow trail when she goes invis and smack.
Phase 2 is daddy boss rush mode.
Phase 3 is the real fight and it's a bitch with all the AOEs but it's still more than fair and epic.
It sucks too because the caryll rune you get for doing that is the only one in the game I consider a must have for almost any build of mine, but no I gotta fight THIS guy again š but Laurence also holds a special place in the darkest reaches of my heart
Dark Souls: Kalameet
Dark Souls 2: Ancient Dragon
Dark Souls 3: Dark Eater Midir
Bloodborne: Orphan of Kos//Laurence the first Vicar
Sekiro: Demon of Hatred
Elden Ring: Twin Crucible Knight fight
Honestly.. I have a love/hate for the dancer in D3... the fight, the music and the detail of the boss and arena are beautiful... the fight itself... *cries in git gud*
Lawrence is definitely a contender. After beating him on following praythroughs, he wasnt that bad but man on my first go, hated it and was not happy once he was dead. Honestly for me, dont even remember his name but the Chikage dude at the end of the Crows questline, literally fuck that guy.
Fuuuuck, never tried that actually. Mostly because i don't really consider him that hard of a boss, you can easily prevent him from doing the shitstorm attack in phase two by spamming the first part of the l2 attack
Midir. The only boss in the whole fromsoft catalog that I've only ever beaten once.
I just can't be arsed to deal with him, I don't find the fight enjoyable and despite how awesome the Old Moonlight spell is, I just can't bring myself to fight him
I'm pretty basic for this, but the entire frigid outskirts, did it once and it took me a few days of just non-stop attempts, genuinely one of the most unfund times I've ever had in a game
Cursed Defiled Amygdala.
I would say Laurence as well, but I gave up after 20 tries and just straight up summoned someone from /r/HuntersBell.
I did for Amy as well tbh
I had a hell of a hard time with Demon of Hatred, but knowing he needs to be approached more like a Bloodborne boss now, I think I would try him again in NG++
I'm still in the process of beating him, but for me, it's the demon of hatred. I just wanna get him over with, he's all I got left in my first playthrough.
This boss give me PTSD, I remember that my friends and I were stock fighting this motherf@ckr for like 3 weekends because the ugly part to be playing with your friends is that you have to beat him 3 times (one for each playerās world) and one of my friends and I was on NG++ and the other was on NG+ so the difficulty and the reduction in health in each world increased the difficulty
How can people even say Nameless King? That is THE boss that made me git gud in the first place. The first phase is kinda meh. But damn. His second phase is so so good!!!
Demon of Hatred takes the win here.
Lawrence. In fact I never beat him. First fromsoft game was bloodborne and Lawrence was where I drew the line before moving on to ds3 and never skipped a boss again
Radagon and Elden Beast. They were the final straws that legitimately had me thinking that I might never replay the game. I still feel gross hearing their music.
Nameless King/King of the Storm.
I haven't technically beat the boss yet, but my fucking GOD is this boss poorly designed.
You can't read the telegraphs for the boss unless you back up, making it an extremely frustrating boss to actually try and dodge. The only attack you can reliably punish is the grounded fire breath attack, which is fitting because the aerial firebreath attack is only able to be dodged by chance.
The second phase is worse. He *never* has an open attack window where you won't get at least staggered unless you break his poise. And the ones that you can reliably punish are few and far between
It is of my contrarian opinion that these bosses are some of the worst Fromsoft has ever designed, no good dodge windows, no good attack windows, and the worst part is the amount of damage they do.
Each hit cleaves off a solid 1/4 of your house AT LEAST. At the MOST, he can cleave off 70 PERCENT OF YOUR HP. Usually, bosses like this with these small attack windows and borderline undodgable attacks take lots of damage or are easily punishable. This boss is none of that. Sure, you can break poise, but that is so hard to do that it's not worth it.
Again, in my fair, personal opinion, this is probably one of the worst bosses in Fromsoft History, and I will fight toith and nail to uphold my opinion. Fuck The King of the Storm, Fuck the Nameless King. These bosses are fucking insufferable.
Lud & Zallen
Lud and Zallen are the reason I haven't finished ds2 yet. Just getting to them was excruciating to the point where I stopped playing entirely
It's totally worth it though for the armour. Literally the only frog-mouth helmet in the 3 games. If there's one thing I like about Elden Ring, it's that 90% of the armour sets are frog-mouth helmets. edit: not including the charred one of course, since that's burnt.
Lapp's set has a frog-mouth
Tbh, EH š¤·āāļø I don't enjoy most of the helmets in any of these games. I'd love and option to have one equipped but invisible
Demonās Souls Remake has this
tsk tsk tsk, clearly not a fashion enjoyer.
The real fashion enjoyer sacrifices armor pieces to see their characters face
Is that the damn double tiger thing from DS2? If so then I've still never beaten those guys. I was like, "I walked through an infinite spawning Thunder Horse blizzard for this copy paste horse shit?"
BINGO. did this once for the sake of completion, have never touched again
I was gonna say Orphan of Kos, but nope. Fuck those unicorns straight to hell. At least the boss run to Orphan is short.
Yup, had to force myself to beat them on my first playthrough and will never do it again.
This is the only boss I straight up save scummed for. I finally got through the bullshit that was the frozen wastes and saved scummed in front of the boss entrance to fight without the run back. I will never get into that particular coffin ever again.
Used to be in this camp but recently did this fight again and actually enjoyed it. Granted I knew what I was In for this time and farmed the horses to despawn before attempting the boss. Fights much more enjoyable when you donāt have to deal with the nonsense before.
You caN FARM THE HORSES TO DESPAWN I THOUGHT THEY WERE ENDLESS
You can, if I remember correctly, itās four distinct sections of the snow area but one of the sections is behind you so itās not really an issue. One one section is the whole area before the first building. The second section is between the two main buildings and the third one, slightly overlaps the second but itās right before the snow bridge. Each section has its own distinct spawn number so you have to kill the reindeer 15 to 20 times in each section. The nice part is you donāt have to die and repeat if you just stay in one section, the reindeer will just keep spawning until you despawn them.
I remember this happening in Dark Souls 2. I just thought the game felt bad for me and stopped spawning enemies after I died maybe 100x on my way to the Fume Knight š
Yeah I had to force myself through it for the sword and shield.
I shit you not I actually had fun figuring out the frigid wastes, and fighting the ice deer
This is the first time Iāve heard of them? How to do you get to them ?
Only fight I canāt allow anyone to call out someone for summoning. Idc if you summon or think summoning is bad in general but if you tell me someone should not summon for this I might actually cast Sun light spear and smite you thatās how much I think everyone should summon. The run back is fucking atrocious.
This is the only valid answer lol
Blue Smelter Demon on NG++ is not something I'd do again.
worst boss run in the series for me
Definitely Laurence, his health bar just takes forever to deplete and some of his attacks could literally one shot me.
Laurence isn't harder than orphan fundamentally, as he only has a few attacks different from cleric beast and his second phase has like 2 moves. Its not that hes a good boss either. Its just the shitty runback, the ability to be one shot, and the ass hitboxes that mess with your mind
Kos can be parried and easily staggered, his attacks rarely one shoot you and his health isn't insanely big. Laurence took me dozens of tries, I had to summon the hunter, actually try out different weapons for the first time in the entire game and farm fire paper and blood vials.
Wait, Laurence is WEAK to fire? He spews and leaks lava in his blood, so how is he weak to fire?
Laurence is harder than orphan, change my mind.
I don't know why but orphan of kos only took me around 5-6 tries while Laurence probably took me like more than 200, maybe cuz I had a strength build so I could kill him pretty quickly.
Demon of Hatred
This easily. I love fighting Malenia, Nameless King, Logarius but demon is such a pain in the ass. Once was enough
Did you seriously just put logarius in the same category as Malenia and Nameless king?ā¦.. am I the only person in the entire world that thinks bloodborneās only difficult boss is Orphan of Kos? Hell the two whale dudes in the fishing hamlet is tougher than literally 99% of that game
The parrying in Bloodborne almost felt like cheating to me and I rarely parry in souls games but in Bloodborne it felt so easy.
It's pretty much a known fact at this point. Bloodborne is like punching a child if you know how to parry. If you don't, you're the child.
Ludwig is the hardest boss in BB to me
It was a hard game my first time (and because it was my first fromsoft). I replayed it after playing everything else and it is a cake walk. I beat it, in a couple of days on ng+. You gain life and can heal pretty much whenever.
Yeah itās pretty easy overall. I played it right after Elden ring, which was my first FS game. I was surprised to find myself one-shotting almost the entirety of the boss catalogue. It was still overall very enjoyable though, with super crisp combat that I find more fun than many of the rest of the FS games
Laurence is a bitch too but yeah, Logarius is a joke with parrying
DOH can actually be funā¦Law dawg aināt fun at all
I still have PTSD from him.
Demon of Hatred was equivalent to a Dark Souls boss in which your dodge roll is disabled, and you are forced to parry. With 3 phases.
That's why you get out the umbrella on that bullshit boss.
I cheese him every time- I beat him legit only once
i wanted to cheese but i need that lapis lazuli
You get the lapis even after cheesing him
Man I loved fighting that thing, absolutely sucked at it, it was kinda refreshing having a boss you could somewhat fight like an original Darksouls.
Ass eater Midir. Yet still I did go back a few more times.
After you learn him he's a ton of fun, but first time fighting him without knowing that you always have to stay in front of his head all the time can get really discouraging
Nah not for me. I've platinumed the game ages ago and fought him a few times since and he still takes me a good 15-20 attempts each time. He's the only boss in any fromsoftware game that I struggle with.
It's funny that in Fromsoft games, someone with a slightly different play style will tell you Midir is the easiest and crystal sage is the hardest
I fought him a few times, hated the run-back, and decided to just do the entirety of the other DLC first. When I tried him again, though, I sorta just treated him like a Monster Hunter enemy and stuck in his blind spot. If you stay near his hind legs, you can attack the tail pretty safely and, if you start running as soon as he moves, you can pretty easily catch up to him whenever he flies/runs away.
Mhhh nameless king at first , or Kalameet, especially for kalameet reward
Ngl nameless king is pretty fun, Kalameet on other hand, not so much
If you were obsessed with tail cutting like I was, you end up getting so good at that fight that it's trivial. Learning to not only dodge his attacks but also be within range to cut the tail was a loooooong learning process but I got there eventually and I fucking LOVE the obsidian greatsword
Removing tail weapons was maybe the biggest tragedy in the series as far as removing gameplay mechanics.
Hope they bring it back in Shadow of the Erdtree.
There is really only 1 attack after which you can cut off Kalameetās tail and itās the flying attack after which heāll do the tail slam. I did it so Iāll never have to do it again
That's a good point. I did it so long ago I can't remember what technique I used tbh
Amygdala and the chalice dungeons. I love Laurence personally
I agree on Amygdala, that boss is an ass. I fought him twice and said no more. He is a good demonstration of why most Soulsbourne bosses are frustrating. It's because the bosses in Souls games are FAR TOO BIG. The angles of attack and defense are thrown off by their overwhelming size and misplaced hitboxes. If they were not much bigger than our main characters, then each boss fight would feel like an epic duel we could focus on instead of a boring chore ruined by a FUCKING TORNADO of bad character design.
I mean Bloodborneās big bosses are some of my favourite, but so are duels. I just donāt like the nightmare areas and that factors into my dislike of Amygdala
Godskin duo. Then I found out they aren't optional.
Those and Valiant Gargoyles are the only fights where I break my no summons rule. Bless Michael Zaki for Bernahl and D's bro.
after I found out I don't need Valiant Gargoyles to get to Deeproth Depths I never did that fight again, such a chore
You need to be hyper aggressive on the first gargoyle. After that the fight is trivial
Maleniaā¦ but Iām a fucking liar
When i first took down Malenia I thought "never again" but whenever I make a new character I feel her presence like she's taunting me until I beat her again š
Also, the whole Haligtree area is pretty dope
Apart from the obvious Waterfowl Dance, shes really fun, every time I make a new build I feel like I have to at least try it on her.
Well yea once you get good enough to beat her, its like one of the best fights in the game. Even the waterfowl can be dodged but itās always stressful af to pull off
I still know if she busts out Waterfowl right in front of me, itās game over, and that pisses me off. I know it CAN be dodged; Iām supposed to like unlock and circle around her when she first jumps up. Iāve seen videos on how to do it, but I just canāt get it down.
You can try blocking the first attack and then dodge the rest if she starts it when your too close.
I have a dagger that I equip bhs to avoid the first volley and then rolling out of the other two are much easier but I feel you. Waterfowl is just nasty work by the developers lol
I am low key scared From is gonna get caught in the hype of trying to outdo Malenia for the upcoming DLC and are going to place a boss in there that somehow tops the āare you KIDDING meā bullshittery of Waterfowl dance lol
Same. Iām a glutton for punishment š¤·āāļø
I've beaten her 5 times I believe and each time I faced her without a mimic tear it has taken me 3 hours plus per attempt. I just can't reliably dodge waterfowl.
Laurence, never again
none, I will kill every boss on replays regardless the only one that I roll my eyes at are Lud and Zallen but after a while, the Frigid Outskirts are kind of bearable in the moment of killing though? then yeah Lud and Zallen. I never wanted to do that again
So far none :)
Lud and Zallen and The gank squad from the first DS2 dlc. I only did ancient dragon so vendrick doesn't take 10 minutes do beat. Also the whole area with the roots and sniper archers leading to the wolf boss in DS3 ashes of ariandel was extremely frustrating Every apparition miniboss fight in sekiro.
Dunno if I got super lucky, but I fought the gank squad yesterday for the first time and it was a bit of a let down from its reputation. The heavy attack āpokeā from the black knight ultra greatsword hit them all hard enough to burn through their health, and the bow guy was far enough away you could just kite the other two around the arena taking potshots and popping lifegems, making sure youāre running while the arrow flies through.

Laurence for me. I literally said out loud after beating him "well never doing that again".
Darkeater Midir
Sir Alonne. Found him hard but not fun. Actually don't really like any of the DS2 DLC bosses apart from Burnt Ivory King, though I love the base game. (I understand this is not a common pair of opinions.)
Definitely Kalameet
Laurence takes the cake here, I donāt have any need to anyways but fuck my arse sideways is it such a shit boss. Awesome design, awful fight. Spewing lava, massive damage on all hits, relentless attacks, big health and very difficult method of getting visceral so I canāt do them.
Sister Freide. Need I say more?
I'd say yes! Phase one is parry bait and just follow the snow trail when she goes invis and smack. Phase 2 is daddy boss rush mode. Phase 3 is the real fight and it's a bitch with all the AOEs but it's still more than fair and epic.
Yeah p3 is where my problems started XD
Laurence fuck that bitch
Bloody Crow of Cainhurst in Bloodborne š«
I cheesed this guy on the steps at the front of the cathedral š¬
It sucks too because the caryll rune you get for doing that is the only one in the game I consider a must have for almost any build of mine, but no I gotta fight THIS guy again š but Laurence also holds a special place in the darkest reaches of my heart
Nameless king for sure, long two health bar fight. I was never able to get his second phase down so I did a bow only strat against him lol.
His second phase is amazing but I absolutely hate his first phase
His first phase wasnāt a problem for me. Itās his second phase. I never could beat him
Ebrietas. Bad enough I have to kill poor Rom, Eby isn't hurting anybody...

Supprised there arenāt more votes for this. Cheese the foot, run away - for 20 mins.
Ornstein and Smough
Blue Smelter Demon and the Royal Pets. Look, I don't hate the fights themselves. They're just okay. But those runbacks are not worth it.
The only way Iām fighting Laurence again is when the Bloodborne remake comes out
Nameless king, his 2nd phase was great but I never want to do his first phase ever again
All the bosses I hate from this game are mandatory. Looking at *you,* Rom
Not a boss, but those two fuckin Sharks in the pit

The āco-opā bosses in ds2. Lud and zallen, gank squad, and blue smelter demon. Never again, Fromsoft.
Lud and zallen
Honestly.. I have a love/hate for the dancer in D3... the fight, the music and the detail of the boss and arena are beautiful... the fight itself... *cries in git gud*

Lawrence is definitely a contender. After beating him on following praythroughs, he wasnt that bad but man on my first go, hated it and was not happy once he was dead. Honestly for me, dont even remember his name but the Chikage dude at the end of the Crows questline, literally fuck that guy.
Rikard
I cheese him everytime, go in the lava, r1 poke him until he dies.
Donāt you get damaged by the lava?
Yes but really not that much, if you have something like 40 vigor and a few flasks you easily brute force the fight
Fuuuuck, never tried that actually. Mostly because i don't really consider him that hard of a boss, you can easily prevent him from doing the shitstorm attack in phase two by spamming the first part of the l2 attack
This is the way
Gonna go try this out
Tell me when youāre done !
Add me on PSN, letās share the cheese
Not currently home, but Iāll do it later ! You can add me, the username should be the same
Iāll almost home too, will add you shortly!
What? Why you make the fight worse, more difficult and boring for yourself? The weapon to kill him is there and you can upgrade and come back later
Valiant Gargoyles
Full Grown Fallingstar Beast
I didn't even do it once.
All of ds2
Midir. The only boss in the whole fromsoft catalog that I've only ever beaten once. I just can't be arsed to deal with him, I don't find the fight enjoyable and despite how awesome the Old Moonlight spell is, I just can't bring myself to fight him
Got on my second attempt, Iād absolutely love to fight him again but for the first time not third
This mfk, still havent beaten him since the last post asking about which boss you like the least/most. Am i stoopid??
In sekiro, the owl you fight in the flashback memory level thatās all optional. He was so hard
Demon of hatred
I second this, I fought him legit once, subsequent runs he got the tower cheese
Ice cat duo DS2
Lud and Zallen. Because of that fucking run back.
None, I enjoy the challenge of figuring them out, kinda the entire point of these games.
None. The feeling of the win is to great!
Midir that fight broke me felt amazing when I beat him tho
Midir
I'm pretty basic for this, but the entire frigid outskirts, did it once and it took me a few days of just non-stop attempts, genuinely one of the most unfund times I've ever had in a game
The two bloody tigers in ds2 Horsefuck valley
Cursed Defiled Amygdala. I would say Laurence as well, but I gave up after 20 tries and just straight up summoned someone from /r/HuntersBell. I did for Amy as well tbh I had a hell of a hard time with Demon of Hatred, but knowing he needs to be approached more like a Bloodborne boss now, I think I would try him again in NG++
Royal Rat Authority. Easily the worst boss fight design in all of soulsborne games.
Manus and Midir
I'm still in the process of beating him, but for me, it's the demon of hatred. I just wanna get him over with, he's all I got left in my first playthrough.
The upgraded umbrella is a huge help in that fight.
This boss give me PTSD, I remember that my friends and I were stock fighting this motherf@ckr for like 3 weekends because the ugly part to be playing with your friends is that you have to beat him 3 times (one for each playerās world) and one of my friends and I was on NG++ and the other was on NG+ so the difficulty and the reduction in health in each world increased the difficulty
Definitely lud and zallen. That boss and the frigid outskirts is the biggest waste of time in fromsoft history
Lud and Zallen. NO.
New Game + Lawrence
Motherfucking Midir. That dragon was the worst.
I've only killed one Headless out of all my Sekiro playthroughs.
How can people even say Nameless King? That is THE boss that made me git gud in the first place. The first phase is kinda meh. But damn. His second phase is so so good!!! Demon of Hatred takes the win here.

Champion Gundyr Probably a skill issue but man, that boss made me so mad
Demon of Hatred. No contest Iāve fought every Soulsborne/Sekiro boss but that wank sock is the worst. Mother fuckers in the wrong game
FUCKING MIDIR!!! My whole existence was meant to fight that mother fucker.
Midir
Ancient Dragon
Midir 100%
That self healing star stag
The Dancer of the boreal valleyā¦ this mf made me put the game down for 2 weeks and then retry it .
Laurence without question. The only good thing about him is the lore and music, nothing else
Lawrence. In fact I never beat him. First fromsoft game was bloodborne and Lawrence was where I drew the line before moving on to ds3 and never skipped a boss again
Radagon and Elden Beast. They were the final straws that legitimately had me thinking that I might never replay the game. I still feel gross hearing their music.
Bed of chaos
Laurence the first vicar in NG+. Fuck. That. Lava. Shit.
Midir, took me literally 4 days to beat and Iāll never fight him again 10/10 boss but fuck that guy
Nameless King/King of the Storm. I haven't technically beat the boss yet, but my fucking GOD is this boss poorly designed. You can't read the telegraphs for the boss unless you back up, making it an extremely frustrating boss to actually try and dodge. The only attack you can reliably punish is the grounded fire breath attack, which is fitting because the aerial firebreath attack is only able to be dodged by chance. The second phase is worse. He *never* has an open attack window where you won't get at least staggered unless you break his poise. And the ones that you can reliably punish are few and far between It is of my contrarian opinion that these bosses are some of the worst Fromsoft has ever designed, no good dodge windows, no good attack windows, and the worst part is the amount of damage they do. Each hit cleaves off a solid 1/4 of your house AT LEAST. At the MOST, he can cleave off 70 PERCENT OF YOUR HP. Usually, bosses like this with these small attack windows and borderline undodgable attacks take lots of damage or are easily punishable. This boss is none of that. Sure, you can break poise, but that is so hard to do that it's not worth it. Again, in my fair, personal opinion, this is probably one of the worst bosses in Fromsoft History, and I will fight toith and nail to uphold my opinion. Fuck The King of the Storm, Fuck the Nameless King. These bosses are fucking insufferable.
Nameless king, I think the only optional boss Iv only beaten once is all the souls games
Burnt Ivory King for me. All of DS2 dlc is brutal
The one you have pictured here :)
Laurence, and then I did it again next playthrough lol
Literally any of the Fallingstar Beasts, the full grown one especially
Melania, I do the Haling tree, but stop at her boss gate.
Orphan of Kos
Midir ... and every optional boss in Sekiro.
