Yeah but then if i decide to play the game on NG+ those areas would be at NG++, which would make the game feel schizophrenic.

There's not much difference between NG+ ang NG+2. I would say there's no difference at all.

The big leap is from NG to NG+ (where enemies health and damage increases roughly by 40%), every subsequent advancement of NG level increases stats by less than 10%. If you decide to go through NG+, try a bonfire ascetic on a random boss and you won't see any difference.

It's not great but it's honest work :)

Level 69 build. Shredded like Abby.

Maybe I hit a sweet spot but almost everything dies in 2 hits.

Not only can you, if you've got some toxin curatives on hand, it's actually one of the more effective tactics in the game.

For me hardest:

1. Friede
2. Aldrich
3. Pontif
4. Dancer
5. Nameless King

And Friede is the hardest boss out of all Souls games to me. Though i don't consider Sekiro Souls game and never played it.

But yeah it highly depends on build and personal style and how you play. With heavy hammer above is true but with magic build Aldrich gets on top.

Yeah I don't want to play with mods before even finishing vanilla game. And also wouldn't that disable online functionality?

You will get soft ban if you play online with mods. Aka you will be playing only with cheaters and modders. If you delete your save and wait long enough i think there is a way to get back to proper pool. Personally i don't care so i got soft banned and i play with friends with Cinders overhaul.

Sekiro's Bosses >>>> Dark Souls 3 Bosses.

It depends. Wex Dust is allowed. Watchdog mod is allowed.

I agree Friede is one of the hardest bosses in the series. But Sekiro's Isshin is still harder. My rank right now would be something like:

1. Isshin
2. Friede
3. Orphan of Kos
4. Manus
5. O&S

(ignoring DS2 because it's shit)

No Orphan?

Also, I feel there's a huge gap between Isshin and the others. Really. I started fighting this fucker yesterday and only beat him today. This never happened to me with any other boss in the series. Even Friede took me like 30 tries but she went down under 2 hours max. Isshin depleted me physically and spiritually.

never played Bloodborne. It was the only PS4 game i was interested in, and i'm not buying a console just to play one game.

yeah, he's way too restrictive. Super long and grueling multi-staged fight, one mistake and you're dead.

Nope, I've only fought him at the top Ashina castle. Are you sure it's available in the default path/ending?

No he isn't, he's part of Purification ending, and it's the only way to get all Prayer Beads so I do the steps for that ending even if I'm going for a different one.
