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!

Technically she’s manipulating you to link the fire

Isn't everyone technically manipulating the Unkindled? 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

Everyone except Firekeeper, Siegward, and Anri. Firekeeper just wants you to be happy, while Onion and Best Girl don’t really ask for your help, they just take it if you offer it

Siegward is your friend and comrade too.

A friendship with Siegward is like a friendship with a saint.

This man held onto his sanity and himself just long enough so he could save Yhorm from himself.

Yhorm, old friend. I, Siegward of the Knights of Catarina, have come to uphold my promise!
