10 Hardest Soulsborne Bosses - Ranked
4. Manus, Father Of The Abyss (Dark Souls)
Manus is can be a nightmare for all different types of players, for those who like to block and those who like to dodge. Both players alike will find themselves trying to heal themselves through the relentless dark magic attacks that will consume many Estus Flasks.
His melee attacks aren't much better as they have a huge radius and can hit you from what seems like an impossible distance. He also moves a lot faster than you would expect which means the combos are very hard to avoid.
Mainly attack from behind as that's where the least amount of attacks can come from. Attacking at the legs isn't too bad either. Wait until the dark magic spells come in and prepare to run or dodge. Once those are done go back to attacking him aggressively. Block out hits or dodge when you can and you may just come out on top.
