There is Abyss Watchers' awesome combo There is Sulyvahn's punishing combo There is Champion Gundyr's aggressive combo And then there is Dancer's combo
for anyone that has ever had trouble with this boss, the rythm is in her footsteps and the downbeat of the music. just watch her feet they will tell you exactly what she is going to do and from which direction. she's a dancer. dancers use their feet not their hands/arms^^
what's interesting si that her attack pattering is different from l8iterally every other boss. um.... there' s a video showing this. um... here. th-cam.com/video/9ZmAiyPRGqE/w-d-xo.html watch this and you'll understand what i'm tryign tos ay
Lol this was legit the first boss i ever killed in a dark souls game (gundyr doesn't count) i just cheesed this fucker with pestilent mist without taking any damage except from the pestilent mist 😂
So sometimes when she's walking without attacking that means that's your turn to Dance (Attack). It weird to see her walking in circles doing nothing and then attacking. But now it makes sense
Meet MadMat If there’s one thing you should realise from the souls series it is that you should roll through the telegraphed attacks of bosses rather than away from them.
Imagine these bosses trying to kill you and suddenly the Ashen One disappears by wearing a ring. "Well, thief. I smell you. I hear your breath. I feel your air. Where are you?"
I remember being stuck collecting my 75k fucking souls in an endless loop coz she brought me here after beating Aldrich. God I wish I knew homeward bone works in the boss room.
One of the saddest of all bosses. Love it, it's sexy, it's amazing animations, it's waifu. When I learned that she is suffering during this fight and her armor is permanently attached to her body against her will it was very sad. Killing her is making a favor for her.
Probably because of the Pontiff rings that most likely turned her into that beast. In fact if you ever decide to head back to Irithylll, keep an eye out for a feminine ghost walking by the side of a more masculine ghost. That's her spirit walking through Irithyll next to Vordt, the first boss you defeated. When the Pontiff rings turned them both into mindless terrible monsters, their human spirits returned to Irithyll, for as Aldritch's doll tells us; 'Wherever you go, Irithyll is your home.' Now THAT is sad. Hers and Vordt's spirits forever wandering the Boreal Valley, their bodies no doubt killing heroes and innocents foolish or unfortunate enough to find themselves in Lothric Castle.
OFFENSIVE AROUSAL pontiff and aldrich are just genuinely assholes, nobody feels sorry for killing them. and its a just a game you dunce, against "mercy killing"? then dont progress past vordt. smh
I think these are the subtle, genius lore-fragments the Souls Series offers. As far as it goes i really think Sullyvan is the most disgusting and deserves-to-die character in all the video games i know, at least to me. I guess a part of it is that there are so much abominable things we get to know about him, and at least as much horrible stuff which is hinted and left to our imagination. But there are plenty more well-made parts of story throughout Dark Souls 1-3, of course.
I love how most of these guys fail to realize you HAVE to stay up against these bosses. Dancer, pontiff, and Vordt, the safest thing is to dodge towards them.
After.. what, 1 try on pontiff, i realized that if you dodge TOWARDS him and not away from him, the second slash from his combo always misses and you only have to dodge half of the combo. That actually helped me a lot.
I couldn't believe it when my brother told me he beat the dancer right after Yhorm. Meanwhile, my first playthrough I got so rekt that I actually dreaded loading up Dark Souls 3.
She was easy af for me lol I beat her my second try. Watching this video I didn't even realize she had so many attacks lol so I guess I missed out on a cool boss
The Dancer is my favorite boss fight in Dark Souls 3 (Until the Gael fight at least). It has awesome music, a cool boss arena (shit lights on fire as the fight goes on!) and a cool looking boss with an interesting design and very unique attacks
Thank you for a great video! Took me 8 times the first time, just was so intimidating. The RNG played a powerful boss for me at different times. And the grab first time! Great stuff. Really beautiful boss fight. The music creates great atmosphere.
I remember struggling so hard with her my first playthrough. It's kinda funny looking back, because nowadays I always kill her right after vordt and rush gundyr for the prisoners chain
If you’re serious you’ve earned my respect. They may talk about Dancer’s beyblade attack but deep down we all fear Gundyr’s Thomas the Tank Engine charge.
I thought this wasn't only one of the toughest fights, but easily one of the most gorgeously terrifying. That girl creeping and breathing like that is nightmare fuel.
I think "Dancer of the Boreal Valley" was wrongly translated from Japanese. I think the proper japanese says "Boreal Valleys Fidget Spinner" haaa, kill me....
It's actually not that hard. I wouldn't consider myself to be a good player. Just kill Vordt, start Yoel's Quest und stack 5 Dark Sigils. Yuria will appear --> Buy the Dark Hand from her. (Dancer takes bonus Dark Damage) Took me like 10-15 Trys on ~SL 20'ish
1:30 "ddaaamnnn...!!" i reacted the same XD this is why i love soulsborne, you know it's gonna be a painful journey yet you love it anyway... the game will repeatedly kick your ass but eventually you will overcame it... then when you already mastered every bosses, exploring every areas and nailing every builds, you might wish if you could erase your memories just so you can play it for the first time can't wait for Code : Vein :)
She is one of the boss I put my summon sign in front of her door, fighting her is really fun and interesting, also her design is so astonishing I can’t help but keep go back to her.
The Dancer is the hardest boss in dark souls, not for her damage, not for intensity, it’s because in all of Dark Souls up to that point, bosses have always moved and attacked in a 4/4 or 3/4 timescale, there’s a beat, a predictability, the tempo is different from boss to boss and there is occasionally a random spot thrown in. But the Dancer is ALL random, her timescale is 3/3 I believe
I still remember on my first playthrough, I had no idea about this lady and killed Emma for the hell of it. I was so scared when that thing dropped down and starting strafing the room slowly, those eerie footsteps echoing through it. It took me more than 60 attempts at this boss haha. By the time I finally beat her, I knew the attacks so well that I could go most of the fight without getting hit lol
4:03 When you stuff a turkey for thanksgiving but the turkey was still alive
Underrated comment.
lmaoooo
You sound like you're speaking from experience
Now I'm wheezing at 2 in the morning.
Heavily underrated comment. I am laughing on my whole room at 1 AM.
There is Abyss Watchers' awesome combo
There is Sulyvahn's punishing combo
There is Champion Gundyr's aggressive combo
And then there is Dancer's combo
weird combo
Fidget spinner combo
*runs to the other side of the arena*
Gg ez wp no re
Don’t forget about soul of cinder gwyn phase
Which one
for anyone that has ever had trouble with this boss, the rythm is in her footsteps and the downbeat of the music. just watch her feet they will tell you exactly what she is going to do and from which direction. she's a dancer. dancers use their feet not their hands/arms^^
Don't listen to this guy just write a sign saying try finger and you will win
what's interesting si that her attack pattering is different from l8iterally every other boss. um.... there' s a video showing this. um... here. th-cam.com/video/9ZmAiyPRGqE/w-d-xo.html watch this and you'll understand what i'm tryign tos ay
Miyazaki thought he was slick, but the galaxy brains of this community saw right through his plot to link attack patterns to her feet
damn feet
Lol this was legit the first boss i ever killed in a dark souls game (gundyr doesn't count) i just cheesed this fucker with pestilent mist without taking any damage except from the pestilent mist 😂
2:19 never realized but she does have a face actually
L Lawliet holy shit
Oh hell! Wow! Now I just want to see a vid of people examining the models...
Yeah that's not terrifyingly scary at all
Fucking god, that's what the rings do... not even their FACES are safe from that!
that's one ugly bitch
4:04 is the definition of a dark souls boss.
GaLm has some of the best reactions in these videos. 🤣

Mephallyon of the Scourge literally the best body type.
So sometimes when she's walking without attacking that means that's your turn to Dance (Attack).
It weird to see her walking in circles doing nothing and then attacking.
But now it makes sense
It's a dance between you and her. Even her steps are in rythm of the music so yeah. When she walks without attacking is your time to dance.
@@carlosrodriguezb her attacks tho are like off beat by like half a beat if i remember, so her mannerisms make the fight awkward
@@carlosrodriguezb so shes actually just going easy on you
@@sanadrin8359 the music itself is a very odd timing, she typically stays to that timing as well.
@@RegularDude00 no
As others have said, nice job on the transitions in this one! You're really good at this.
Thanks again for including me!
I watched your reactions and loved it and subbed cus of it lol!

Meet MadMat that hand can move throughout space and time and grab you in the future
Just roll lmao
Meet MadMat If there’s one thing you should realise from the souls series it is that you should roll through the telegraphed attacks of bosses rather than away from them.
Just got to say, the hand actually gets him at the very last grab frame, but the pull back animation freaked out because of it
*laughs in Melee Marth grab
Imagine these bosses trying to kill you and suddenly the Ashen One disappears by wearing a ring.
"Well, thief. I smell you. I hear your breath. I feel your air. Where are you?"
They probably already say that after you homeward bone only then to realise that you're not there anymore.
is that a hobbit reference?
Come out now, don't be shy...
*STEP INTO THE LIGHT.*
This girl, pontiff, and soul of cinder we're my worst enemies in ng.
for the twin princes
Absolutely. Just add lorian and his teleporting bullshit on the list too.
I've never had troubles with dancer, just stay on her ass, and run when she starts to Spin
The Twin Princes are actually pretty easy
Mine were Dancer, Friede and Lorian
I remember being stuck collecting my 75k fucking souls in an endless loop coz she brought me here after beating Aldrich. God I wish I knew homeward bone works in the boss room.
Same...
This fight is beautiful. Her movements are so eerily fluid and graceful in the first phase. The dancer name perfectly fits the movements.
One of the saddest of all bosses. Love it, it's sexy, it's amazing animations, it's waifu.
When I learned that she is suffering during this fight and her armor is permanently attached to her body against her will it was very sad.
Killing her is making a favor for her.
Kurosaki Ichigo THEN WHY TF DOES SHE KEEP KILLING ME WHEN SHE WANTS TO DIEEEEEE
Probably because of the Pontiff rings that most likely turned her into that beast.

Im so excited for Sister friede reactions

Nah safest thing is to be a total ass and pestilent mist dancer and pointiff from a safe spot
Wow, I didn't even know she had a grab attack because I've never seen her use it before and almost ALL of these guys manage to get hit by it.
Several times even....wtf?
ByakuyaBleach123 she has one of the most random attack patterns so that specific grab doesn't happen a lot in general.
ByakuyaBleach123 she grab spammed every time i fought her and it made the first phase really easy since it's so telegraphed
on release her grab was enormous and had a wonky hitbox
ByakuyaBleach123 streamers suck at a lot of games for some reason lmao. I beat Dancer on my 3rd try and only let myself get grabbed once.
Me: Uses homeward bone to firelink shrine
I couldn't believe it when my brother told me he beat the dancer right after Yhorm. Meanwhile, my first playthrough I got so rekt that I actually dreaded loading up Dark Souls 3.
MadCashew Nutjob Fighting her after vordt is always interesting.
Ethan Hoffart We talking immediately after?
I guess they killed Emma
Is it bad that I thought she was the first boss and killed her before vordt
@@FTQuake nope because in the next area are enough titanite chunks and large shards drop from the Knights all the time to get a +9 weapon early
I don't remember struggling that much with her. If anything i remember her having my favorite boss theme.
She was easy af for me lol I beat her my second try. Watching this video I didn't even realize she had so many attacks lol so I guess I missed out on a cool boss
A chicken ? 4:03

My favorite boss. So elegant. Also reminds me of Kerafyrm from the EverQuest 1.
The Dancer is my favorite boss fight in Dark Souls 3 (Until the Gael fight at least). It has awesome music, a cool boss arena (shit lights on fire as the fight goes on!) and a cool looking boss with an interesting design and very unique attacks
One of my favorite bosses in the series. The music is beautiful, the character design is equal parts graceful and unsettling.
that guy one handing the sellsword twinblades with a shield hurts my soul
"this video contains Dancer of the boreal valley's grabbing attack."
Your transitions are getting even better with every new video, thanks for the great content!
It's so fritening the silence and then the loud steps and hravy breathing of a giant creature
If you reverse her 'voicelines' you can hear her actual voice.
Thank you for a great video!
Took me 8 times the first time, just was so intimidating. The RNG played a powerful boss for me at different times. And the grab first time! Great stuff. Really beautiful boss fight.
The music creates great atmosphere.
I feel, since I beat the Dancer and how many times I raged and screamed, I feel that I should get a worthy chuckle out of their anguish.
The dude who took off to the shrine made me laugh lmfao!
I remember struggling so hard with her my first playthrough. It's kinda funny looking back, because nowadays I always kill her right after vordt and rush gundyr for the prisoners chain
If you’re serious you’ve earned my respect. They may talk about Dancer’s beyblade attack but deep down we all fear Gundyr’s Thomas the Tank Engine charge.
On one NG+ Sorc playthrough I beat her before Vordt with only the Dark Edge sorcery. It was pretty damn fun!
I kill Vordt and instantly Go After Champion Gundyr because he is my Favorite Boss.
Love this one!! Those transitions are mad cool!!!
Getting better with the transitions, nice.
Dancer : HeI...You remember Wolnir's fog breath back in the catacombs ?
Ashen One : Yeah... why you asked ?
Ashen One : *YOU DIED*
I don't now how i found your channel but i saw every video i like it .. .keep the good work :)
I almost forgot that you’re technically not supposed to fight her until later in the game but I always kill her before vordt for fun.
Dancer of the Bootyful Valley is my second favorite boss after Gael. They're both such fun fights.
The thing i hate most about this fight is that the arena is so extremely enclosed compared to other fights so 80% of her attacks are unavoidable
Is it bad that this boss alone pulled be into the souls series? 😂😂
Not really. She and the Nameless King did it for me.
Zonyae Ambrose nahhhh
The abyss watchers and the souls of cinder were great to :3
That ass tho
Fap?
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who had trouble with her grabs
Awesome boss fight. Took me an hour and a half on NG though, but her movements and her music were so good i couldn't get mad.
If you reverse/Rewind the Dancers Voice in her intro cutscene where she like shakes everywhere from the portal, you can hear her voice in agony
0:18 I'm sure he'll hit this statue every time he enters a new game😂😂
I thought this wasn't only one of the toughest fights, but easily one of the most gorgeously terrifying. That girl creeping and breathing like that is nightmare fuel.
Beyblade of the Boreal Valley
1:17 I did the same thing, like bro I'm not gonna lose the 50k souls I just got from Aldrich
I think "Dancer of the Boreal Valley" was wrongly translated from Japanese. I think the proper japanese says "Boreal Valleys Fidget Spinner"
haaa, kill me....
Aquila hilarious
Nah its "that stripper I met at the club last week with the nice ass" is the proper translation obviously
I love that half this fight is just the dancer’s jank hitboxes on her grab.
That was the hardest boss i've ever had to fight in a video game.
Clearly you’ve never heard of a little boi named the Orphan of Kos
mr theawesome ok fair enough 😂
imagine accidentally getting this as ur 2nd boss
I wish I could dance like that
love this boss. A dance between you and her is such a cool concept.
3:38 This is the power of ZA HANDO
I love how he said she 'teleported' him in her hand when he was clearly in her reach
loving that they all use different set ups and not everyone found the dark sword and worshiped it.
I thought he parried her at 6:57 I was like "WTF!!!"
He did! You just can't riposte her, iirc.
2:07 lol he is fighting with the stormruler
i have to say dark souls 3 has a lot of badass gear but dancers gear is the only one that is both badass and sexy
It actually makes my male character have a nice ass
That sound before the grab still gives me nightmares
You should make videos of special moments like the archers in the dlc or the dragon bridge in DS2 ^^
Dude, I just beat it today and I am now enjoying this vid with a snack, thx for making the vid
Can't wait until Soul of cinder
Wow these transitions are very well done
The Dancer was the first boss I got stuck on for the longest time, and the hardest boss in my opinion, next to Nameless King
Oceiros was the hardest for me. I can easily defeat any other boss besides that slimy bitch
@MyName__ Kosmo probably that charge move he's got. I can't dodge it myself, unless he does it from 3/4 of the arena away.
That Galm chicken Rage sound......I lost it
try to kill her at level 30 to get early the moonlight GS, Oceiros was a piece of cake in compartion
It's actually not that hard.
I wouldn't consider myself to be a good player.
Just kill Vordt, start Yoel's Quest und stack 5 Dark Sigils.
Yuria will appear --> Buy the Dark Hand from her.
(Dancer takes bonus Dark Damage)
Took me like 10-15 Trys on ~SL 20'ish

WafleEnterprises *cough* DORHYS' GNAWING *cough*
3/4 I believe actually.
Even worse if you ask me
Country Jeff Unless you have a weapon that causes bleeding. Then the entire fight becomes a joke.

WafleEnterprises Found her to be one of the easiest bosses in the series in my opinion.
