Dark Souls 2 Boss Guide

Boss 16: Scorpioness Najka

Let’s take on the Scorpionnajka boss in Dark Souls 2. Don’t stay too far away (which triggers her long tail attacks) or get too close, instead keep medium-range close to attack her. Use the trees to help avoid her spell attacks, and use a Silver Knight Shield to block the remaining 80% of her magic attacks.

Boss 18: The Duke’s Dear Freja

Defeating the Freja boss and her spider children in Dark Souls 2. Go into battle dress lightly. Summon an NPC to distract everyone, while you first take out the little spiders from a distance and then attack Freja’s head until she dies.

Boss 19: Old Iron King

Easy to kill for Melee and Magic Builds. His slow attacks (like his hand slam) are easily avoided too, leaving him wide open to attack.
