"IF YOU DON'T PLAY DARK SOULS THE WAY I PLAY DARK SOULS YOU'RE BAD" - OP, a man with a clinically small *****

Virgin take

Incels salty because OP is right. Tears of denial from these comments, tasteful bliss xP

If a boss is going to be unfair and summon a bunch of minions I’m grabbing a couple allies too, otherwise I only summon for quests. I am doing a pure melee build though to be fair

I used a Dragon Tooth imbued with Fire damage. Took a few hits and she was down. I literally didn't know she was supposed to be a hard boss until I saw people complaining about her on the subreddit.

NPC's are never useless in that one of their most important beneficial factors is distracting the boss/enemies. I would still want to summon an NPC that didn't even do damage, because honestly they all seem to do not much more damage than none in the fights, but again, that's not why they're so important.

I beat her in 2 tries, you're just **** bro

It really doesn’t have that many ganks especially compared to basically every other fromsoft game. In fact, comparatively, it has the fairest ganks in the series since all the enemies have the same exploits and weaknesses that you do. Unlike ds3, where the same weapon does like 3x more damage for them as it does for you while they have nigh infinite stamina and unfair poise.
