Learning to no-hit parry-only the Crucible Knight with my level 15 +2 upgraded assassin build was harder than any DLC fight in DSIII and I loved it. The changeups he would use with his tail swipes still give me the jeebies
Man, that guy suuuuucks. I no hit him just dodging; tried parrying, but I cannot get the timing down; way wonkier than Sekiro, which I am more used to. But his windows to duck in, slash, and duck out are super narrow, took more tried than I'd care to admit.
Fun that you are saying that. Perhaps the most deaths/minute i've had in this game so far. I was thinking about how far these games have come. Artorias was a joke against this guy. So many variations, different delays, mixups you have to get down before you have a chance.
Parried the fuck out of him at the end.
If this is your first Soulsbornkiro, god have mercy.
In retrospective, coming back with a little more dmg and hp would have saved a little sanity.
ER is both the most forgiving and the most punishing DS games. You get checkpoints before the boss room, the Coop item is effectively free and unlimited, you get AI buddies if you want them, mounted battle vs world bosses. But also extremely fast bosses with n hit combos, flying bullshit, those fucking centipedes, and way more dragons than you would expect.
