This not only makes each attack burn, but it makes them explosive, as well. Just when you thought her attacks couldn’t get any worse, she goes and sets her blood on fire. Phase Two, Part Two: This Girl Is on Fire!Īfter taking Lady Maria down to her last quarter of health, she resorts to the last trick up her sleeve. Every other attack can be interrupted, though, so use those opportunities to deal major damage.Ĭontinue the pattern until she’s at about 25% health, which triggers the next part of Phase Two, which is also the most difficult.
If you hit her enough times, she’ll dash away to create distance (giving you a chance to heal). For these instances, you’ll want to dodge and get to her side as soon as possible in order to get some hits in before moving away. You cannot stun Lady Maria when she goes into the air to lunge, starts pulling blood towards her, or is charging an attack. She’s still able to be stunned for a visceral attack, just not on every attack, and knowing which ones will lead to victory. For the most part the sticking to her left will still work, but she’s capable of about twice the damage as before, making staying close a dangerous affair. She will also develop charge attacks that can reach across the entire room you’re fighting in. She also jumps into the air and crashes down in an explosion of blood, and she can jump into the air in a different fashion to trigger a huge air explosion around her (the difference between the two is that the crashing down one creates a small cyclone below her). If it was just a bit of extra damage, it wouldn’t be such a big deal, but instead it gives her an entirely new moveset.Īll of her previous attacks now have the added range thanks to her blades being extended by blood. This causes her to go into overdrive and allows her to use here own blood as as a weapon. Phase Two: Lady Maria Turns to BloodĪt half health, Lady Maria will stab herself in the chest. Hold onto them so you can shorten the time you’ll have to deal with her new special abilities. There is no need to waste any of your fire supplies during the first half, since this is relatively easy compared to what comes next. Just make sure to shoot quickly so you can get that Visceral Attack in.Ĭontinue this pattern until she hits half health. She’s surprisingly easy to stun in the beginning, so it doesn’t really matter which attack you try to interrupt. You can still use the “stick to her left” technique, but you may also want to stun her with your firearm (your fastest firing gun would be best, I personally used the starting pistol). Let her swing, then dodge to her side to deliver 2-3 hits, then start to dodge again.Īfter she loses that 25%, she will begin to use the Hunter’s Bone ability, which makes her disappear as she dodges and provides her a much larger dodge range. For the first 25% of her health, the trick is to stay by her left side (your right if you’re facing her) because it’s harder for her to hit you from that side. Lady Maria is ridiculously fast and has a very long range with her lunges and sweeps.
The first half of the fight is a fairly standard Hunter encounter. Each one requires a different approach, so we’ll break down the phases separately. Lady Maria has two phases with the second one having a sort of sub-phase. Raise your Physical and Blood defense as high as you possibly can, since that will help you last longer in this nail-biting encounter. To prep for this fight, you’ll want to bring your strongest weapon, some Fire Paper, some Molotov Cocktails, and plenty of Blood Vials. Oh, and although she rarely uses her firearm, her range is insane. She wields two blades that can be combined into a sort of spear and a pistol and she is faster than anything you’ve seen thus far. She is a Hunter and a powerful one at that. Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower is the third story boss in this expansion. You’d think that would prepare you for one of the toughest fights in Bloodborne’s first expansion, but you’d be wrong. The Old Hunters decided to add a ton of them to the mix by making them a common enemy. Throughout all of Bloodborne, Hunters proved to be some of the most challenging enemies.
