Mytha, the Baneful Queen

You'd eat so much you'd transform into a horrible demon, too (if she broke YOUR heart) Normal 0     This is an another easy battle in a little string of them recently. After killing the Covetous Demon and working your way through the mildly annoying Earthen Peak, you’ll...

Covetous Demon

Slimer The Hutt Normal 0     After you’ve made it through the poison ponds of Harvest Valley (and what a great looking place, I might add), you end up in the interestingly named Earthen Peak. Before the fog gate, there really isn’t much at all to explore in this area....

PICTURES!

    Really quick note here. I have finally started adding some pictures to these blogs! Hallelujah! Nothing like barely-in-focus pictures taken with a phone! So far they are only on Lost Sinner and Royal Rat Vanguard, but I do think they add a lot. From here on out, I'll be putting them on. I'll try to figure out a way to get pics from the bosses I've already fought. I do apologize...

Royal Rat Vanguard

There's kind of a lot of rats down here     Have you ever wondered what was down that giant hole in the middle of Majula? You can see items glowing down there, and that first plank looks juuuuuust close enough to jump to and survive. It very well could be, if your HP is high enough I...

The Lost Sinner

Normal 0 Once was lost, but now am DEAD        I’ll do this one a little differently. It’ll be one long post, and it’ll be split up into a few different smaller pieces, since I went through a few different thought patterns throughout this battle.    ...

Skeleton Lords

More like Skeleton bitches     This is an interesting little battle here. It's located deep within Huntsman's Copse. After going through this fairly large and confusing area (which is sort of reminiscent of Shrine Of Storms 4-1 and 4-2 from Demon's, and a bit of the outside part of the...

Belfry Gargoyles (pt. 2)

YOU DEFEATED!     Man, "You defeated" really was awesome. It should be up in the pantheon of ridiculous winning messages, along with "A winner is you!", and "You're winner!".     Here we are, part two. I left off being killed 18 times by the Gargoyles, feeling helpless....

Flexile Sentry

We're all on a boat!     Excuse my missing a blog post yesterday. Didn't have time. But don't worry, that means you get two today! Huzzah! Up now, we have Flexile Sentry. This name culls up images of a robot for me, probably because of the use of the word "sentry". Well, he certainly...

The Old Dragonslayer

The Big "O"     Well, well, well. Looks like an old friend from the past (but is it though?) has come to visit. I had quite the smile on my face as I walked through the fog gate and saw a tall, slender knight on the other side. First off, yes, another knight boss. But what's so special...

The Ruin Sentinels

Give me monsters, damn it!     Looking back on this battle, having just beaten it recently, I can't help but feel disappointed. Now, don't worry, the boss battle is fine. I'm disappointed in myself. I again had to summon help to fight these guys. Aah, oh well, I'll take them down on NG+ by myself (hopefully...). But I digress. The Ruin Sentinels are three tall, lanky statues that have...

The Pursuer

Nothing to crow about (sorry, ugh)  Another early boss (again, second or third?), and he’s the coolest one yet. He’s also the first challenging boss in the game, and definitely the most fun so far. He reminds me of equal parts False King Allant from Demon’s Souls (the way he effortlessly floats...

Belfrey Gargoyles (pt. 1)

Normal 0 ...or, UUUUGGGH (this doesn't follow the end of my Dragonrider post, where I teased Pursuer. I meant to have that one next, but I couldn’t resist putting this one first. Pursuer should be tomorrow)     You've just fought through a small secret area (which you gained access to with the cool Pharos Lockstone) filled with strange, black (phantom? I don't think so,...

Dragonrider

Normal 0 The first of many knight-bosses     As previously mentioned, it's tough to say who the true second boss is. Dragonrider was my second, but he could have been the third or fourth for other people (I've read online that people were fighting The Pursuer shortly after...

The Last Giant

  ...but the first boss!     The first boss (if he can so be called. The beginning of the game is fairly non-linear, so while he was my first boss, someone who went to Heide's Tower Of Flame would fight a couple more first) is The Last Giant, who resides, logically enough, within...
