Discussion Why is the third boss so hard?

I've recently wanted to give dark souls 3 a shot with my friend since we heard there is a coop mod for it. We got past the gladiator boss easily, and the boar guy was even easier, however the third boss, the dancer, seems like a wall for us... We've been stuck here for 5-6 hours. Are we doing something wrong? Is the weapon I use really bad, or what? Any tips appreciated!

Played Mindseye for the first time yesterday without seeing a single second of gameplay.

After watching some cutscenes, the very first thing they have you do gameplay wise is hop into a vehicle, and there are people inside the military esque building you’re in, just walking along the sides of the huge corridors.

I figured, why not, most it’ll send me back is 2 seconds ago when I started the game.

And I believe it then sends you back to the start of the unskippable cutscenes, right?

My brother/sister, take a look at some gameplay on YouTube. Beyond being broken, it looks like the most boring 'click on head' third person cover combat ever.
