I can get his life down to about 30-40%. Lvl 150 ish, wouldn't mind some help. PSN: SoulTraitor. I'll add the chalice code later.

be more aggressive and keep slashing his left knee.

2998 health in the Lower Pthumeru Chalice? I'm very confident that's incorrect, unless somehow it gets affected by NG which I know it shouldn't..

Use quick weapon and keep attacking the bastard(aiming for the legs primarily) and you will succeed!Keep pressing him no matter how hard he hits(and he DOES hit hard!;)) and he's yours. That's my 2 cents anyways:)

The charged R2 takes off a nice chunk of health. I basically just bait him into either charging me or using his blood rain attack. If he changes, just side step (twice to avoid the follow swipe that he likes to throw in) and use the charged R2 attack on him. Then roll or quickstep away towards the far end and repeat. This is a good time to heal too. If he does the blood rain then dash or quick step in and use the charged R2 attack on his head (or rather, where is head should be...). Things get more complicated when he sprouts that giant maggot head thing, because he he's more likely to just keep coming at you. I contended with this by side stepping A LOT. Maybe three time to avoid his ground pounding attacks. Then I did the charged R2. To really maximize your damage you need to light the hammer's furnace before using the attack. I usually did this as I would back away, but it can also be used as a L1 combo shortly after using a R2 or R1. Obviously this is meant for a strength and arcane build. My arcane wasn't high enough to rally maximize Moonlight's R2 attacks, and the hammer's lit R2 has nice splash damage in addition to be an overhead swing that can hit this *****er's torso or "head" if he starts to stand up (off the charge or rain) or come towards you.

Psn HailKingDavid the headless is giving me fits. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

He is stronger than the naemless king and lothirc together

His stupidly long punch can one punch me with vitality 47 so HP 1442! That is just *****ing ridiculous!!

I just infuse my flamer with bone marrow ash, torch him and keep torching him until it says Pray Slaughtered. Not very sporting true but I'm in a hurry! Lol!
