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.

Ahh it makes sense now.  I never added a point to arcane, most of my points were added to vitality, endurance and strength.  I did die a few times with some bosses averaging 2 to 3 tries per boss but ebrietas was the only one that made me consider to throw my controller.  I had so many close call with her that it angered me everytime I had to start over.  Great game.
