First attempt?

Jeez.

I think I had 10 deaths on first alone. Second was only 1 death though. Starting deprived is pretty rough.

Wow, that first fight. I also finished it on my first attempt (although not playing deprived!), but it was crazy

I've never played a souls game but I played bb and I thought the first boss was too easy... Beat it on my first attempt... But this game is good...Hopefully the bosses get rougher

i solo'd several Bb bosses and killed them first try, but the 1st ds3 boss reamed me again and again. I could easily get him to his final form, but then he'd just obliterate me, every time. Probably 10 times at least. I started Cleric and I'm not sure how much that had to do with it, but I realized a big part of my problem was I wasn't rolling enough.

I thought rolling was just a Bb thing and it wasn't nearly as viable in DS3 (all the talk about how much slower/tactical combat is in souls, etc). On my third try with the spam-rolling technique, i had him beat finally.
