i had one of the hardest times with these 2. There's a pretty effective (albeit kinda tricky to pull off) cheese if you run out of patience. They both have a move where they launch backwards before doing an AoE strike. If you can get each one to pull off that move near the edge of the waterfall they'll jump to their death.

Tried that. Unsuccessful. For some reason, these bosses have been by far the most difficult for me.

it took dozens of attempts for that cheese to work for me and it was a lot of luck when it did. What worked for me was to try and keep as much distance as possible and keep circling, trying to keep their back to the waterfall. Agreed that they are two of the most frustrating i've dealt with so far. Just aggro AF with a massive AoE, and too big a health bar to kill one before the 2nd shows up.
Just realized my next boss is Melania, who apparently was broken with the most recent update and made close to unbeatable. Probably will search for some catacombs until they fix that.

How does that happen? Oh wait, seems like the glitch(?) happens only when playing co-op.

What starting class did you choose?
Vagabond after being very tempted by samurai. I’m trying not to look up much online about “what to do” but I did want to make a solid choice on class. So I looked up recommendations there. I don’t anticipate ever being able to get through a full, second playthrough of a game this massive so thought it best to lean on some guides early on for decisions like this to make the most of my first time.

Yeah, that video that tree_ posted several pages back was a great starting point for the game. Doesn't reveal much, but was very helpful!
