Mini Bosses *Possible Spoilers*

Oddly, I have yet to see any discussion or list of the new mini bosses in PTDE. Although I don't have it, I feel like this must be fixed.

Could somebody give some insight into these fantastical creatures?

please put a SPOILER bit in the thread title, so people who don't want spoilers wont click on the thread

thanks

Bah, and I'm usually so good about remembering that!

theres this prisoner miniboss that is walking with a
little iron cage on his head with a flail attached to it. Not sure if
it counts as miniboss becouse hes weaksauce but he doesnt respawn and is
no boss.

Also after killing the sanctuary guardian two lesser ones spawn at the same place later on.

And thats all there is I guess and thats probably the reason you havent seen any discussion on it.

and there is a dragon!

How is he a miniboss

Felt like a mini-boss to me.

Are we counting Ciaran too?

Also, I haven't seen anybody fight Gough, but I assume that he could qualify as well?

Gough fight is beyond awesome! the highlight of the DLC for me.. really! i never expected to fight i giant with those awesome moves

Could you describe how Gough fights, please?

Even better, youtube it?

Horey shiiit Gough can bodyslam. NPC of the year.

I dont think there's a video on youtube, but Gough fight like a giant wrestler, with elbow drop kind of moves, it was really surprising when i tryied to kill him the first time :shock:

I watched Peeve's video in which he fought Gough, I saw a ton of drops and slams.

now imagine engaging the fight with him without knowing how his fight style looks! It was really exciting

That doesn't surpise me. The blind can rarely do things other than dropping to the ground.

how dare u people betraying Gough?!

his armour is awesome... and well, i just had him and gwyn alive on my NG

jesus
mate ..i guess blind people don't play video games. but still...good
one (hate people on forums who can't take a joke)

Hmmm we have the Chained Prisoner at the end of Oolacile Township, he's mildly difficult for pure melee, because strikes bounce off him like when you try to hit the armored boars. He drops chainmail armor set pieces. Also, it was said already, but Ciaran and Gough can count as minibosses if you attempt to kill them. Gough uses elbow drops, bodly slams, etc, and Ciaran fights similarly to the painting guardians, and uses Lloyds Talismans.

I didn't try to see if slumbering dragoncrest ring / hush have any effect when fighting Gough or not. I never fought him, I wouldn't betray him :/
