Darksouls Gaping Dragon Boss Tutorial

Gaping Dragon

The Gaping Dragon is the boss of the Depths are in Darksouls. Once you kill the Gaping Dragon he drops the key to blighttown which is one of the two ways you can get to Blighttown, the other way being through the Valley of Drakes. The Gaping Dragon boss is fairly early game. At this point in the game this is probably the biggest and strongest boss you've encountered at this point.

 Luckily for you there's some NPCs you can summon. If you met Solaire of Astora and Knight Lautrec in the Undead Burg then you'll be able to summon them. Their summon signs will be next to the staircase leading down to the gaping dragon boss fight. And of course if you find any player summons you might want to use those rather than the npcs.

When you get into the boss room the Gaping Dragon will come out from the pit at the very end of the boss room and charge you. The best idea in this fight is to attack his tail and the back of him, mostly because his open rib cage will attack you and charge you. Also if you attack his tail eventually it'll fall off and give you the Dragon King Greataxe, which is a pretty good weapon if you have high strength. 

When the dragon charges you'll want to back away, even if you aren't in front of him, the sides of him can still hurt you when he charges. One of the attacks he can do is he'll spew brown foam all over the room, you'll want to get as far away from that as you can, it'll start doing damage to you.

In conclusion, this boss isn't too hard if you just be careful and do those small bits of damage on his tail while you can. Don't be greedy and try his upper body, that's how you get yourself killed. If there any other boss fights you want me to cover let me know in the comments below

Injustice 2 Review

Image
Injustice 2 Injustice 2 released May of 2017 as a sequel to Injustice: Gods Among Us. The injustice Series is a fighting game in the style of Mortal Combat with DC super heros with a story line of multiple realities and a civil war between the different superheros. In my opinion Injustice: Gods Among Us is just another fighting game, it had a good story but other than that it was bland. Injustice 2 completely stepped up it's game with singleplayer content and replayability value. And Here's Why! Injustice has a Multiverse System, there is five to six multiverse events you can do, each one you'll have mini events inside each one (AKA having to fight 3 to 18 enemies). Each Multiverse will give you a reward after beating it, and will sometimes require you to play only as one character. Mini events will also give you rewards, and if you get a certain amount of points you can get a Bronze, Silver, and Gold Mother Crate. Now let'

Bloodborne: How To Get Blade Of Mercy Early

Image
Blade of Mercy The Blade Of Mercy is a weapon in Bloodborne that can be either a normal sword, or twin blades. The BoM has somewhat small starting damage with a base 60 physical and 30 arcane. It is a pure skill weapon, so leveling skill will be a great idea for this weapon. At +0 it has a C ranking in Skill, then at +1 to +4 it has a B ranking, +5 to +9 it has an A ranking and at 10+ it has an S ranking. The BoM is a fast weapon, and great for fast combos. Infact, it's main combo happens to be an R1 spam. With the BoM you can get an 8 hit combo just with R1. While in transformed mode its L2 does a sweep attack then a back step. The best attacks for this weapon are attacks followed up by running or dashing, as it does 50% more damage when done so. Though the thing is, to get this weapon you normally have to go through Eileen the Crow's quest line then Defeat Rom, a later game boss. After defeating Rom you go to the Grand Cathedral and if you did her quest you fight a
