Beat that Boss

Ranking Every Souls Boss #19 - #1 The boss fights within the Souls series are some of the most compelling, dynamic and challenging in the industry. Many of them demand excellence when approached. They do not give quarter and we, the player, expect none. You must master the mechanics, persist through death, and, above all, learn from your mistakes in order to come out victorious. Regardless, some fights were clearly superior to others and, in order to make my opinions a little more balanced, I devised a five category, 50-point system to rank each of the bosses. The categories are Gameplay, Lore, Originality, Challenge, and Entertainment. Below, I go into detail about each category which I encourage you to read because it informs the bosses point totals. For example, Challenge is not just about how difficult it is but also about whether or not the difficulty is organic and fair (looking at you Ancient Dragon).

Dark Souls III continues the tradition of epic, fantastical boss fights that are challenging, interesting, and never disappoint. I enjoyed every boss in the game but some certainly stood out more than their contemporaries. I'll start out this out by listing the bosses that didn't make it onto my list in the order of my least favorite to my most. I'll say a few passing remarks but won't go into detail as I will with the top ten.  Check me out at www.twitch.tv/xtravesty0690x SPOILERS AHEAD. 19. Deacons of the Deep This boss was pretty easily my least favorite of Dark Souls 3. For a mob boss, I think that it's a decent fight but I don't really like these sorts of battles. It was painfully obviously who I had to strike to beat the boss and while I really enjoyed the fact that when I hit a fatty in the crowd, they sprawled out and knocked back their compadres, it still didn't have enough of that excitement that the rest of the boss fights provide. 18. ...
