HolyThe negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

You're looking at the 2022 valedictorian of Margit's institute for obnoxiously delayed attacks

Why is the standard enemy version in the haligtree way the actual **** stronger than the leonine? Like that makes no sense what the **** so ever, you fight a leonine one of these and wreck its ****ing day, walk 2 steps further into the haligtree and come across 2 of these ****ers that are basically tankier than the ****ing valiant gargoyle duo? They wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy the **** overtuned the defenses on these things in haligtree, and yet every single other one in the game is a ****ing joke

This dude must be Margit's grandpa with how much goddamn ridiculous delays he does before actually swinging.

His attack delays are so comically slow that it isn't even annoying, since you can easily just wail on him before he even gets a chance to swing, you could proly land a fully charged colossal weapon heavy attack on him before he actually swings its that slow.

Could've at least switched his axe with the rusted anchor, bruh

Their delayed swings are annoying. It's like their attacks were specifically designed to screw up your parry timing. It's easier to just R1 them to death, which is silly.

A testament to how FromSoft has pushed boss difficulty beyond human limits. First, we had Soldier of Godrick, then Tibia Mariner. They also had to give us Scaly Misbegotten? So innovative.
