Turns out the main problem with my approach to Butterfly Chick was that I only had two gourd uses and no prayer necklace. Didn't think that one through, did I?

I was on 5 gourd seeds and attack 2, vitality 1 before I felt I even had a chance at that chick. She is the best boss next to Genchiro to learn the mechanics of the game for every aspect though, I'd wait until you get to Genhiro and then return to her. Plenty of branching paths and mini bosses to level up before Genchiro too. 

Yeah, I've since gone on to kill the chained ogre and working my way up that path.  I only get limited time to play these days, so I'm guessing this game will last a lot longer than past Soulsborne games for me.

I did manage to get her to her second phase with my paltry gourds and vitality, though.
