Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower Battle (Easy technique) - Bloodborne - The Old Hunters DLC - NG+
Battle with Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower.
Maria is one of the most difficult bosses in the DLC. I began the DLC with my NG+ character and found that most of the bosses were harder than they probably should be. After multiple deaths, both solo and coop, I found an easier way to beat her.
You want to stay close to Maria as she will punish you for putting distance between you and her. Stay to your right and dodge accordingly. Once you begin hitting her, spam the R1 button. This will knock her out of her attack poses. Once you run low on Stamina, back off and let your stamina regain. Repeat.
Once she begins to go into her 2nd and 3rd phase, she will pause and hold while she charges up. Don't be afraid to get a few bonus hits in on her during this time. Just make sure you back off before she release her AOE.
On 3rd stage, get her in a corner and remain close to her. Hit her a few times then use Beast Roar to knock her down. Continue to spam R1 while she stands back up, get a few hits in once she's standing, then use Beast Roar again to knock her down.
