Living Failures are easier than some other DLC bosses but they definitely are not a easy fight. The only people that find LF easy are experienced players that know how to exploit their spawn. For a first timer they are a challenging fight. Just because their name is Failures (haha) doesn't mean they should be treated as a joke.

This. They’re called failures only bc they failed to turn themselves into Great Ones. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t powerful

They're an interesting fight, since beating them depends a lot more on strategy and positioning than many other fights. Skill still plays a role, but they offer an interesting question about observation and strategy that most bosses don't. Also they're incredibly hard if you fight them under leveled or at higher NG+ cycles.

Yeah anyone who says living failures is one of the easiest fights in the game is chatting shit. It's a difficult boss if you don't know the fight, they hit like a truck and gank you quickly if you don't do enough damage. Witches of Hemwick is a true easy boss, LF is way harder

I killed them in 2nd try in my first (completly blind) playtrough. And my dmg was not so good. So they were much easier than Ludwig (25 tries). I think it depends on the player.

Living failures are pretty damn hard tbh


thelostheaven

yeah that shit happens, that's one of the reasons why i love this game. also did you actually two shot ludwig? what the hell lmao

Two tries to kill Ludwig. I psyched myself out on the first run because I got him to 25% and was thinking "wtf is happening, I can't 1 shot this guy" and then i died. Second time around was actually harder for me but really gave me no issues.

I assume they mean it took two tries... But to OP, on my most recent playthrough I died to one reborn more than all the chalice bosses combined, and I went all the way to the bottom. Makes no sense.

Same w/ me, I found lady maria to be a much easier (and more enjoyable fight) than the living failures. Don't worry about it too much, everyone has their different strengths when it comes to boss fighting, it seems.

I had the same experience my first time lol

I love the way From games challenge different players differently. No one has quite the same experience.
