Dark souls III Iudex Gundyr

Iudex Gundyr

Boss battle with Iudex Gundyr at the Cemetery of Ash

Yes! Darksouls III, my best friend. I've been playing this game a lot recently and it's probably one of my favorite games of all time ever. My first play through of the game it probably took me up to ten tries to beat Gundyr, which going back at it now after taking a break for a bit. It's like a nice walk through a meadow of flowers and sunshine compared to the other bosses. Gundyr is the very first boss in the game so how easy he is depends a lot of your class and starting gift more than anything else, since you dont have a chance to get any new weapons or armor before him.

Class and Starting Weapon

Now, there's three classes I'll recommend picking for this fight. Knight, Sorcerer, or Pyromancer. I'll go over each and which one you'll want to pick with what starting item for the boss. And what strategy you want to use for each

Pyromancer and Sorcerer

Pyromancer and Sorcerer are in the same mostly because their strategy for this boss fight is the same. Pyromancer does more damage and I would one hundred percent pick that every time, unless you want to be a Sorcerer build in the long run. It does less damage during the boss fight, but some of the later sorcerer skills are pretty sweet, And having that class boost never hurts. With either of these classes you'll want to stay away from him, most of his attacks require you to dodge either left or right, sometimes coming back for a second attack where you'll want to dodge backwards for. When he's just standing there don't shoot, theres a good chance he's getting ready for an attack, shoot every time he's just finished attacking, you'll get  good damage from that. Half way through the fight he morphs and grows a giant black filth looking arm. Dont be intimidated, do the same thing you did before just be more careful, and dodge. It's always a good habit to put up your shield after dodging just in case.

Knight

I won't go too deep into this since it's fairly striahgt forward, use the Black Fire Bomb as your starting gift as it does a buunch of a damage to him, use that whenever you need, possibly at that large moment to get some ranged damage in. Stay close to him and hit when possible, dont forget the dodge and block, take little damage as possible and dont be afraid to miss some hits, take it slow
