Arguably the poster child for Dark Souls 3 bosses so far, based on the plethora of Let's Play videos and gameplay trailers that have shown countless people taking on this ethereal-looking creature. You can see why From Software wanted to show off this boss in particular, as her ghostly cape gives her an elegant, flowing appearance that you could almost just sit back and admire if she wasn't trying to slash you in half. Some lorehunters have suggested a connection between the Dancer and Ciaran, one of Gwyn's knights from the original Dark Souls, based on the slight similarity in weapons and armour, though this has mostly been refuted for there being no logical reason (from what we know so far) for her to make an appearance. The Dancer's hypnotic movement makes it awkward to anticipate her attacks, and no doubt plenty of players have already seen people in action against her and thought 'pffff, I could do better than that'. Well, soon you'll get your chance... Are you hyped for Dark Souls 3? Sad to hear that this will be the last one? Which boss has got your adrenaline going the most so far? Let us know in the comments!
