nvm I beat it.

Dodge right to all of his attacks. It seems stupid but trust me it works. *His left your right This made the defiled chalice bsb much easier.

Sure!

Not my guild,so couldn't say. But really, with help, that boss isn't that bad. I've beat it in a defiled chalice dungeon (where you have half health). But it did give me some trouble at first. Have ya tried using the pungent blood cocktails? If not, that will help you a lot. The beast week be attracted to them, giving you a breather to heal or do some safe damage. Honestly, i can't remember if that's am optional boss or not. It MIGHT be. But again, once i get back from this funeral, i would be more than happy to help ya with it. And there is an npc summon just to the right of the bottom of the stairs before it, so might try that too. Also, use a serrated weapon like the saw cleaver and fire. But if you can't beat him, you're gonna have a hell of a time if you got the dlc. There's a couple bosses that took me a long time to get past. Not like I'm the greatest at the game or anything, but i consider myself pretty good. I'd say i had at LEAST 30 tries on each, maybe more.

Have you made it to the witch? If not, then go to the left just before the entrance to the vicar amelia boss fight. Should be able to go that way

And pungent blood cocktails. The beast is attracted to them, can give you a moment to breath and get some damage in
