10 Hardest FromSoftware Franchise Bosses Of All Time

The Orphan of Kos is the final boss in Bloodbornes Old Hunters DLC and the toughest challenge that From Software have laid upon our poor masochistic heads.

To begin the Orphan is absolutely relentless. Opportunities to heal shrink to nothing as the Orphan bludgeons you constantly with his massive placenta club. His blood-curdling screams as he zips and closes you down in a flash are panic-inducing and often result in the tiniest slip of inaccuracy that spell the end for players.

Half health is tough enough and somehow is only the beginning. In his second phase the Orphan ups the aggression, adding flight and arena-filling lightning strikes to his already lengthy repertoire. The Orphan of Kos is unpredictble, varied and has little tells on many of his attacks.

All this combined with his speed, power and ability to prevent players from healing make for one of the hardest challenges in gaming. The Orphan revels in putting players on the backfoot and keeping them there and his ability to punish mistakes make it an incredible feat to ever stay on the attack.

The Orphan of Kos is the toughest challenge to spew from the minds of a company famed for their brutal bosses.
