3. Nameless King

Arguably the hardest boss in the base game, the Nameless King is exceptionally atmospheric. Not only does he begin the fight astride a dragon, but you are also fighting him on top of a storm cloud.

Epic? Hell yeah! But after you beat the dragon, you are left with one of the hardest one on one duels in the entire series. He is unrelentingly aggressive, has moves that can punish you if you make one wrong misstep and he can destroy your health bar if you aren't careful.

And that's what makes him so great. He is so difficult, that when you finally learn and beat him one on one, that euphoria is incomprehensible.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
