@redfox9446 thats honestly the only justification that fromsoft could think of, instead of giving us a revamped combat system against bosses, or have us not take insane damage, the balance in these games as a whole, were never good.
@@TheInfamousWolf why would they revamp the entire combat system in a DLC? When has that ever happened? And what "insane damage" are you taking in the base game outside of a few unbalanced moves?

O horn-deck'd beast from higher sphere deliver'd. Take root inside the tower's sculpted keepers. And perch'd within, we beg of thee, rise. Dance and cavort, cleanse all that thou wilt. Cruelty, woe and those who plague the tower. Cleanse away the strumpet's vile progeny.
After some research, here's what I could learn from the dialogue: - 'Higher Sphere delivered' is potentially the afterlife of the tower people. In lore, those who die are returned to the Erdtree but, because the rune of death was cast away, an afterlife does not exist. Hence the term 'sphere' might be important. We know that the moons are gods, just as the erdtree, rot and blood is. So is there another moon or a sun that the Lion Dancer's soul originates from? - 'Tower's sculpted keepers' are ofcourse refering to the malformed body we're seeing. It does appear that grafting is an old craft used before Marika left to the Lands Between but it appears that grafting served a necromatic purpose as well. - Interestingly, 'cleansing' appears to be term used to motivate the Lion Dancer's violence here. Omen were send down to the sewers in order to 'cleanse' Leyndell. It appears that the Omen might've been just as discriminative as Marika's Order, although we might still have to learn more of their views in item descriptions. - A 'Strumpet' is _a woman who has many casual sexual encounters or relationships._ A progeny is _a descendant of a person, animal, or plant; offspring._ I believe this strumpet to be Marika with you as a descendant of her Order. Not only did Marika birth many children, her hateful plee makes good sense given Marika's past deeds in the Lands Between. Whatever Messmer did in this place, it was presumable under Marika's name as well.
'I won't be watching spoilers of Shadow of the Erdtree.' He lied as easily as he breathed. From the looks of it the Lion Dancer has 26500 HP, more than someone like Godfrey, First Elden Lord who has 21903 HP.

well this is the first boss right :)))..i cant imagine the others..that damages and roll catches huge haha..anyway i remember something..practice makes perfect ?
4:22 "It's just damage, for now anyways." So we may potentially have a second phase with the Dancing Lion boss basically and its breath attack may be something incredibly painfully. Great!
So is the DLC gonna change the Varre questline then? Bc doing that questline grants you early access to Moghwyn Palace and Mogh, BUT you do NOT have to kill Radahn specifically to finish that questline, any shardbearer will do, so you can also kill Rennala or Godrick instead of Radahn. If this is not gonna change then the info graphic is wrong by stating that killing Radahn is a necessity to reach the DLC.
The dialogue at the start was interesting. If the "strumpet" they were referring to is Marika then they clearly dont have a high opinion of her or her ilk.
Doing some calculations with the pixles, the Divine Beast Dancing Lion as Approximately 29,000 hp and around a 25-28% physical damage absorbtion (on the front, unsure about the tail) For comparison, Placidusax has 26,651 hp and a 35% physical damage absorbtion (10 for pierce) I'm very certain about this bosses hp threshold, not so certain about the damage absorbtion as im not sure how the Milady's moves alter its damage output (Edit: thanks to theeliteterarian for extra research and input)
@@dhaumya23gango75 At one point 1956 damage was dealt to the boss specifically by the player (no summon). Looking at the before and after, i measured the damage dealt as about 1/15 of the hp bar. Do the math and you got the hp amount. The Milady's base damage is over 600, and 1 attack measured as just over 400. That's how i got the damage negation. Not as exact but close. Thanks for your concern but I'm fairly sure I'm accurate
yes i think this makes sense. bosses in the dlc would have more health to compensate for the scadutree blessing system. also because it is endgame content.
@@soulsmasterxw7373 actually upon further inspection, i took a critical damage number during the fight (1299 damage) and measured it with a screenshotting tool to be 30 pixels of yellow health. the full bar is around 670 pixels. so in all i got around 28000-29000 health.
@@theeliteterrarian1888Thanks for doing research too. And yeah, that was a mistype on my part, because even my own math contradicts 35000 hp. I measured that 1956 damage was 1/15 of its hp bar, whick is about 29,000 hp. Same as your answer. Because of the hp difference and damage negations, this boss will take the same amount of punishment as Placidusax while being way faster. Short answer: He be thick af
