Just beat it myself, got the third ending. Took my time before the battle, though, wiped out all the optional bosses I could find, (pretty sure I got all of them outright, @_@ ) even made sure to get the full-level Moon rune from that giant eyeball monster in the pit, because I AM NEVER GOING IN THAT PIT WITH THAT FREAK AGAIN. ._.

Yeah, the hunter boss Gehrman was a nightmare to fight. So powerful, so fast, and that Scythe (WHICH IS NOW MINE MWAHAHAHAHA) had some painful range to it. Taking him out with my (smaller) holy blade kept turning into this dance of dodgedodgedodgedodgedodgestrikedodgedodgedodgedodge. Beat him on attempt five, literally screamed "**** YEAH!" when he finally fell, despite the fact that it's three in the morning and I might have woken up the entire house. xP

Secret boss was almost laughably easy by comparison. o.o

Really?  I beat the last boss on my first try, however ebrietas was another story.  I dont remember how many times she kilked me.

Well, for Gehrman I died four times (though, in my defense, my weapon broke during one of those deaths, soooo Imma blame that, >.> ) usually because he hauled out some attack I hadn't seen before and caught me flat footed. I actually got him down to NEARLY dead on the second attempt, but by then I was out of blood vials and he pulled that floating-above-you-wind-slash thing for the first time. Amyway, even though I'm pretty bloody high leveled, I fritted away about twenty points or so in Bloodtinge and Arcane cause I wanted to use all the weapons, and most of the magical items. None of which actually boosted the damage output of my main weapon, or helped at all against Gehrman, ironically. So my Vitality, in retrospect, could've been higher, as a lot of his attacks would take out about seventy percent of my health, sometimes as high as ninety in the later stages, so if I got hit by the wrong attack with my health bar even SLIGHTLY drained, be an instant kill.

In deaths, he's tied with the Blood Starved Beast as needing the most deaths, AND tied with that Gatling Gun hunter and Rom as the longest drawn out fight, as in all three of those conflicts I used aaaaall my blood vials before I won.

 

Ebrietas, I seem to remember I died twice to her. First time due to her health-draining frenzy... thing... and the second due to that God awful Light Spear attack. Powerful attacks, that light spear especially, but I started going for hit-and-runs in her low-health stage so I could see that spell coming and spam-dodge to the side to evade them.
