I just got to the end of the PAINTED WORLD, but I didn't bother killing the boss because she didn't attack me! Will I be missing anything important leaving her alone?

Also just beat the bed if chaos boss, I'm sure I'm nearing the end now As ive also defeated the four kings and I've just been defeated by the seath, by I don't think you can Beat him first time can you?

You'll miss her souls, which is required to create an unique scythe, and her tail drops an unique dagger.  Plus, there's a trophy for defeating her. 

You can't beat Seath the first time you face him (at the top of that large stairway after coming from the elevator), since he's basically immortal. Even on the normal fight, if you don't know the trick to it, you can't damage him as well.

@A203D - The mosquito enemies keep respawning as long as you're within the range that they can see you. They won't trouble you if you go a bit further than their spawning point. To be honest, I find the dart enemies much more annoying, since they can put the Toxic state on you on an instant, even with high poison resistance.
