Dark Souls III - Deacons of the Deep Easy Kill
278Dark Souls 3 - How to beat Deacons of the Deep
Boss Name: Deacons of the Deep
Immunities: None
Weakness: Bleed
Alluring skulls are handy here. The Warden Twinblades can also be obtained in this area - that's the weapon I'll be using for the majority of these boss guides. I didn't bother making a video for Crystal Sage as you basically just need to run up to the purple one and hit it. I strongly suggest fighting Deacons before Abyss Watchers.
Starting Class: Northern Warrior
Initial Weapon: Battle Axe / Deep Battle Axe
Primary weapon: Warden's Twinblades
Backup weapon: Anri's Straight Sword
Stats to focus on: LUCK and DEXTERITY
Important items: Carthus Rouge, Hollow Gem, Profaned Coal
Even if you do not follow this build precisely, you can still emulate it with varying degrees of success: The main goal of this build is simply to out-damage bosses by trading hits with them, where possible. Many bosses in Dark Souls III are susceptible to bleeding. So we'll be taking a weapon with innate bleed (I went with the Warden Twinblades as they have a weapon art that's great for landing multiple hits) and then buffing it with Carthus Rouge (which adds a lot of bleeding) as well as infusing it with the Hollow Gem.
Hollow infusions allow your weapons to scale with luck and also give you a bonus to your luck stat if you have high enough hollowing (which is gained by allowing Yoel to draw your power out) and the luck stat itself boosts your bleeding bonus.
Even if your build is very different, so long as your weapon can be buffed, you might want to stick some Carthus Rouge on it and attempt to bleed bosses, unless you are using very slow weapons, in which case you will hard it somewhat hard to bleed them.
