liwenborg Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) So to celebrate the upcoming ps4 edition, Scholar of the First Sin, it's time to share some memories and thoughts from Dark Souls 2 and by doing so we should play a little game which I got inspiration from an old thread on GameSpot. Since boss battles make up a major part of the game and affect a lot of us by their appeal, story and difficulty. Some we love, some we hate. Anyhow now its your time to either give a vote for your favorite boss to victory or smack one down that you think gave you a hard time in the game. So the rules are the following: The game is to get rid of the bosses you dislike the most, and by doing so you can choose to take 1 life away from 2 Different bosses or if you hate one in particular you can give that boss a double dislike by Taking 2 life from that one. The third alternative is that you can heal one of the bosses by giving it 1 life back, note: bosses health can't extend over 10 health. Lets begin, Ill start to show you, and the next guy/girl will just copy the stats and so on.. Keep it clean and NO cheating, feel free to share why you voted the way you did!

Have fun! And wait some posts before you vote again! Edited February 9, 2015 by liwenborg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amebapiko Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Don't you mean Scholar of the First Sin? Also I'm really looking forward to going through the game again and revisiting all the bosses I'm sure it will bring back some memories. On topic, I really don't know if I want to down-vote any since the ones that were too easy were kind of a nice respite and the hard bosses were nice too since they were challenging.

Ric Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I'll take 2 of of Dark Lurker.... Simply because I had a pure melee character and after hours of trying, it had me go out of my way to respec into some spells so I could finally take him down and grab the platinum. He is not kind to melee characters . Felt good to overcome him though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NayDM Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Im currently on my NG+ playthrough and although i now know the mechanics of each boss, I'm going to judge them on my first run through. In mind i remember The Pursuer boss fight taking me hours when i was new to the game and under levelled/inexperienced. -1 to him. Secondly, The Giant Lord or the Ancient Dragon were most annoying for me. I decided to give The Ancient Dragon -1.

Woop982 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 -1 for Darklurker because the boss is a joke but as soon as he splits he is immediately almost impossible to beat cuz there's barely any chance to attack him because both of them keep spamming overpowered spells. I don't know why everyone likes him, he's one of the worst bosses in Dark Souls 2 in my opinion. -1 for Elana because she's a palette swap off of Nashandra. And instead of having an interesting move set she just spawns minions and another boss to do the fighting for her. I could've picked a lot more bosses for -1 but since i can only pick 2, there you have it!

You're allowed to play more than once? Isn't that just an invitation for someone to come along and do multiple posts in order to "kill off" those they don't like?

Isn't that just an invitation for someone to come along and do multiple posts in order to "kill off" those they don't like? Yes, thats at least what I said in the first post. As long as you dont spam. Since I did it with 7 other voters in between, maybe I should state that as an official rule? Anyhow thats the reason why the numbers that you can subtract are only 1 and 2, so that you have more choices to make and making it way more important to follow the thread so that you can help your favorite. If you were only allowed to vote once I could have made an simple poll, and I think this is way more interesting making it a kind of "game" Also we need to be realistic, PSNP dont have enough (yet) Dark souls fans that would be able to finish the thread on their own. Another benefit by being able to change the chart multiple times is that we will start to discuss with eachother why one boss might be better or having more flaws than another. Let me know your thoughts @StrickenBiged So, probably in the weekend I'll update the op with more detailed rules and some bosses that I actually forgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And like I said, I voted for the damned rats and Vendrick because they were the only ones that gave me trouble. Almost every other boss I would bring in other players or NPCs to tank for me, so I didn't really do much of the boss fighting in my playthrough... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemiak Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 You forgot Throne Watcher/Defender and whoever that dHead is who shows up after Nashandra on NG+2. I'm on my phone right now so can't cut + paste well but I'll play later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I'm on my phone right now so can't cut + paste well but I'll play later. I often hear this excuse, but I don't get it, because you can copy/paste just fine on all the phones I've used.

Hemiak Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Lol, thanks for calling me out bro. I'd completely forgotten about this game. -1 for Darklurker because you have to waste an effigy every dang time you want to fight him. I don't have a problem with a boss kicking my @$$ multiple times before I get gud but I don't want to have to pay for the opportunity. -1 for Ancient Dragon because of automatic critical on every physical strike he makes. Sure you can wear that ring to mitigate the damage and it kind of even makes since that a stomp on your head is a crit but it's still annoying that you can't do anything(other than the ring) about it.

The Chosen Undead Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Mmmkay, gonna bring this game back now. I feel it's appropriate as I'm about to get the Plat. -1 from the Royal Rat Authority because of those F***ING little helper rats of his. I swear those things killed me at least 10 times for every successful run of the boss. -1 from the Darklurker because of the insane Effigy tax on the fight. It's even worse because my 99% melee strength build made it impossible to effectively dodge the boss. Thankfully its AI broke on my 10th attempt or so and it never split up, so I got an easy cheese-win.
