      I would also like to mention *Abhorrent Beast* who is actually an optional mini-boss but he stands toe-to-toe with any boss or "Great One" in Bloodborne (base game or DLC) in terms of pure combat.
      You encounter him in the Forbidden Woods. However, if you really wanna test yourself, then I suggest you fight him in Lower Loran (Chalice Dungeon).
      He's truly S-tier and might be the most well-rounded and toughest boss in the entire game.

      I find him much more interesting than that. He's like a mad scientist (well scholar but similar archetype). He also doesn't realize hes even dead. He's just endlessly and feverishly seeking answers. Once you know how to do his gimmick I think hes actually kinda fun.

      I don't mind how easy the Witches are, I just really dislike them mechanically and design-wise. I already am not a huge fan of gank fights but Witches is particularly lazy. And it just feels so shoe-horned in, like they had another boss planned for that arena but ran out of time and just had to throw something together.
      About the only cool thing about them is how the boss is affected by insight being set to 0, since it's the only boss I'm aware of that really does that. Other than that they're just extremely disappointing with one of the coolest boss arenas in the game.

      Yeah you need bosses like pinwheel or the witches to feel like it's not to bad, but for me for some reason I had no walls with any base game bosses in bloodborne (except ebrietas) but dlc gave me walls with ludwig, a little wall with maria and the biggest wall ever with orphan of kos, and I beat malenia and the final boss of elden ring dlc (not spoiling it but he's harder than malenia) and yet orphan of kos gave me the biggest wall I've ever had in soulsborne games, I've beaten every main boss in elden ring and every boss in dark souls 1 yet this gave me more trouble

    fun fact: sometimes after defeating living failures, one failure still stays due to some glitch. you can actually take this failure into the maria boss fight for a really cool double battle- the failure will even use the moon attack during the fight which can’t hurt the player but makes maria’s boss room have a dark sky effect.

  • @jaredwon1486
    @jaredwon1486 4 місяці тому +3

    What I love about Orphan is that he’s challenging, but strikes the balance between difficulty and fairness almost perfectly. Sure, he’s highly aggressive, but that just re-emphasizes what Bloodborne has been teaching you since Father Gascoigne. Match the aggression and keep on the push forward, as he operates in many ways like a hunter. He’s fast and chaotic, but has very clear telegraphs and punish windows. He has high-damage combos and AOEs, but they’re well thought out, and the large arena gives you plenty of space to deal with them. He’s got a large a large health pool, but he’s able to be consistently and easily back-stabbed / parried to safely shave it down. Not to mention, he’s just the most ‘bloodborney’ boss in Bloodborne. I mean, a cosmic infant Great One crawling out of the womb of its dead God mother, looking like a death-metal hellspawn wielding her placenta like an extendable scythe, on the forebodingly dark yet beautiful coastline of a nightmare realm fishing village that was destroyed and brutally experimented on by hunters just like you, with nothing but a dark sea of shipwrecks and raining skies overhead. Just simply incredible, favorite fight in video game history for me.

    Parrying the human/hunter enemies IS the fun part of learning a fight.
    A boss isn't good because it's difficult, it's good when overcoming that challenge in and of itself is rewarding.
    And mastering game mechanics, like parrying, to destroy a boss that was destroying you before hand is the rewarding part of the fight and it is what makes Father Gascoigne and Maria so fucking good.
    Can't believe people actively don't see it that way.

    It surprised me that Rom isn't widely considered an easy boss. Beating her doesn't require high reflexes or memorisation of complex patterns, just a bit of patience to run in circles and eliminate spiders one by one. Avoid spell attack - kill one or two spiders - wait for another spell attack. Rinse and repeat, until she's alone - without her minions she's weak and pathetic, almost pitiful to kill.
    I'm close to finishing my first playthrough and two other surprises in terms of commonly perceived difficulty are Gascoine and Logarius, both of which i beat first try. They seem very straightforward to me, without bullshit one-shotting attacks, crazy combos etc.
    Currently struggling with Ebrietas. Now this is a tuff one. First phase is managable and entertaining (great atmosphere, bautifully twisted design!). 2nd is hell. Hardest boss so far.

    Currently im doing my first playthrough. I defeated Gascoigne on my first ever playthrough first try and somehow it brought me more satisfaction then fights in other souls games that i had to deal with. This 6 minut banger of a fight felt so much more real then in different games, feels like you're fighting the opponent that you outclassing in his profession, you're a prodigy and he's an rusty old wolf that once was great hunter but now he just can't keep up with protagonist. And the qoute up there☝️? Man...I regret that Bloodborne wasn't my first or at least second souls game because then when i would hear this qoute i would shit myself and loose quadrillion times but now when I gone through Ds3, sekiro, half of elden ring and a bit of ds1 (not that impressive but still some experience) when I heard this quote from the old man, in my head i was like "let the blood flow, then!" And i just started maniacally laughing and entered some kind of focussed, cold ... professional...one could say, bloodlust. Well, then i killed him and what's the best part is that this fight was so fair and square, without bullshit attacks that you must die few times to learn them, that I can't even be mad. I'm just impressed that first try fight designed for new players to learn importance of parry, can be so satisfactory. Congrats Fromsoft. Because turning on this ps4 that i didn't use for like 6 years was made by you, one of the best decision I ever made in my gaming history.
    Ah yeah and f*&k Laurence man. He gave me ptsd with those cone of hitboxes at his every sweep. And in third phase he becomes basically becomes dmg sponge. This fight broke me and I've decided to use the summon for this fight. The soundtrack in this fight tho? Well i couldn't experience it during the actual fight due to Laurence's constant yapping xD But when i killed him and was able to hear the tune, I was like:"Well that sounds neat. So I've looked it up on yt and man this track literally made me cry and now i feel obligated to fight him in the next playthrough and live through this the torment... Good ol' 1v1 hatefuck with a unfair boss is a classy feeling indeed 💀

  • @TripleCheekedUp
    @TripleCheekedUp 6 місяців тому

    I completely agree with your point that Ludwig is much easier in phase 2. It feels like such a weight off my shoulders when I get there because hes much more predictable. In challenge runs for me personally it feels like a race to get there before I die. As for Laurence and Orphan I always go back and forth. On one hand Laurence, especially in NG+ cycles has a lot of one hot moves or combos he can grt you into and his fire after effects always seem to clip dodges. The crawling charge in the final phase, if you miss 1 dodge that initial counter damage plus the stun just spells instant death. Orphan despite being parryable I dont feel like it even makes it that much either. Ive played enough that I feel like ai can stand in front of Maria parry every attack never dodge, and kill her eith ease. The different timing of his attacks mixed with the fact he can swap between moves mid combo it feels like he always has something to catch you off guard and no matter how many times I play this game it doesnt feel like hes gotten much easier than the first time I fought him.

It's a fight where Fromsoft tried to make as big of a boss as possible without us looking at her feet all the time. Her slouched design is used perfectly here. Plus ever since I figured out a strategy where I ignore her head, go for her one arm, and don't lock I can't say that she's a bullshit boss.

    Late to the party bc i just finished bloodborne for the first time ever (just got access to a PS5) and my god it’s amazing. Gehrman is my favorite boss bc of how frustrating he was for me. I had zero bullets and limited blood vials and he was super quick. HOW. BRO WAS ON A WHEELCHAIR. 10/10 would smash

    Throughout my entire first playthrough of bloodborne i always played with lock on, Orphan of Kos made me realize that sometimes playing without look on is better for very aggressive enemies, phase 2 without look on is so much easier, not to mention that you get rid of the orphan´s worst attack: The god damm camera.

    Best way to kill Rom: Either a big hammer or the bow so you can get as far away as possible from her kids
    Edit: And to be fair, Laurence is the one boss people underestimate on first impressions. Cus on one hand he appears to be a "generic Cleric Beast Copy/pasted but he's set on fire". Its when you actually fight him is when you realize that fire .... makes things harder. Cus now you gotta worry about getting burnt even from brushing up against him.

    I’m a new bloodborne player and on my first time playing I beat about 90% of the bosses first try with 0 prep. And any boss that you can use the gun for a visceral attack should be at the bottom because that’s all I did to them and it was literally easy. The hardest thing I found was the final hunter for the crow lady that took me like an hour but once I knew his attacks I literally only got hit once before I got 5 viscerals in a row. I haven’t got the dlc yet but I’m thinking about it

    Souls games are so interesting because different bosses are harder for different people. I was so scared of logarius (only fought him on ng+) and beat him in one try. But I ALWAYS struggle with Amelia for some reason. My top 3 fights are (in no particular order) Lawrence, gehrman, orphan

    In my opinion what makes laurence the most difficult boss for me is the fact he was a dark souls boss in bloodborne. You have to unlearn alot of what bloodborne taught you and relearn classic dark souls to fight him. It's the same thing with how the demon is hatred is a bloodborne boss fight in sekiro. It's a boss that goes against the grain. Meanwhile I beat Orphan on my first attempt. Spent all of my healing items to do so but I did beat him on my first ever try. Laurence was already the hardest boss for me and for me personally it is because he goes against alot of the philosophy of bloodborne.

    Gehrman is my favorite boss alongside Lady Maria because of the atmosphere. Gehrman is trying to free you from the nightmare but you also want him to find peace and be free. However, that’s not the case. One of you has to die, I literally said “I’m sorry.” to Gehrman when I beat him. He didn’t deserve to suffer for so long

    I only got killed by 3 bosses on my first playthrough, Father Gascoigne, Darkbeast paarl and Lawrence...I found the Bloodborne bosses very easy which was really suprising...Father Gascoigne just suprised me with is 2nd phase aggression, but I got him on the 2nd try...I found Paarl really early and I just couldn't kill him! I gave up after about 40-50 deaths, but I ended up coming back in Yahar'gul and destroyed him in like 30 seconds, which kind of sucks...Lawrence was really tough also, but I was happy for the challenge after the rest of the DLC bosses being so easy...

  • @Mississippi_Jack

    On NG+7 Lawrence is a complete nightmare. It feels like it's fight him flawlessly or die the first time you miss a dodge. His damage scales way too high and his hitboxes are questionable at times.

  • @luisesteves5929
    @luisesteves5929 6 місяців тому

    0:38 impossibly difficult...
    If Malenia without cheese is a 10, no other boss by FromSoft ever, even in Sekiro, is even a 6.
    Witches of Hemwick:
    Not actually the easiest, but can be with 0 insight obviously. Funny story, the trap spell once hit me and while my eyes were wiped out, the second witch spamed the magic AOE and this team up killed me.
    26:08 "there is no way to cheese bsb"...
    Well there is...
    When I first played Bloodborne, I was super overwhelmed by many starter bosses, bsb included. He was really difficult to me to a point where I just ran through the arena and cried for help, prayed for some hits to get in.
    My praying was heard though. I spotted an item in the back of the arena, some antitdotes. I was not super happy about this but thought these goodies will come in handy.
    And then, the tragedy happened. When I turned around, I realized bsb is right behind me, already charging the attack. There was no time for me to dodge due to camera issues... and then bsb jumped.........
    A loud noise, a loud scream and then, silence. I turned around in shock, Bsb was... gone. Several seconds later, the death screen appeared... I was blessed by the Great ones that day.
    Turns out bsb is so buggy with his moves, he can actually use some Skyrim like glitches to go through walls... then he just died. Although I had a pain of a time, I was sad. Bsb will be remembered.
    I actually still have the recording and this is now on my Yt. Sorry Billy S if I ad myself. I can delete this path if you want.
    For Rom, I have never understood why everyone don't kill the spiders first. Rom is fair, but absolutely annoying. Don't lock on to her and kill the baby spiders first and you will be fine.

    Like Billy S, I never really got Orphan's reputation. I played the DLC for the first time in NG+1 and died to Ludwig around 40 times, Living Failures 4 (lol...), Maria 9 and Orphan a dozen. Laurence took me like 100: he's so unfair, completely goes against BB mechanics and his runback is the worst in the game, alone it drives you insane. All of this made Laurence the hardest boss in my FS experience and by far my least favorite of them all. Also, Micolash is a fine gimmick boss. Never died to him and always a treat when I get to his fight in my playthrough!

As soon as I drop down he would shoot me with those magic attacks and as I was coming out of dropping down animation I would die...Lady Maria was easy for me though, cause you fight her like PvP and you would be fine

    One interesting thing about these lower ranked Bloodborne bosses is that they become very difficult at BL4 - sounds obvious I know, but far more than other bosses at base level in other FROM games.
    Witches of Hemwick, Celestial Emissary, One Reborn, Mergo's Wet Nurse - they were really painful. Mechanically, I'm not sure why but my best guess is the rally mechanic becomes useless at BL4.
    Also, numbers 1 and 2 should be reversed in my opinion.
