You can chain backstab this guy if your weapon is long and the r2 is fast enough. Beast hunter saif transformed will work pretty well.

What is it with Bloodborne bosses and fire?

fuc*ing furries

Submit

If you get tired of him spamming his melee combo try spamming your gun and riposte, see how he likes it.

That's a great photo for the boss. Just a cool dude who wants a high five and also happens to be a wolfgoat monster

Submit

If you're fighting him on the 2 level arena, after an attack, if he falls, run up to second level. Watch him and see which aide he walks up. If you're out of sight, he will reset himself making it easy to sneak in a visceral attack. If this has already been commented on I apologize. Happy hunting!

Pp an poopoo

Submit

Throw purgent cocktail, augur from his back, visceral, augur, visceral,... And he's dead

Submit

Such an awesome enemy, he fights on his own and has no friends ... just like you

Submit

For his second phase, he gets angry and... stops using his more powerful fireballs in exchange for longer weak combos?

Submit

I think some of pthumerian descendants turned into the beast possessed souls. I mean one of their attack patterns are similar. Well minus those legendary hmphs.

Submit

Ugh, I hate fighting this guy, he's so boring and spammy. I like to think that the boss fights are a present for fighting through a boring dungeon, and then I get this? ughhh

Submit

I’ve played since release, and I only just found out the pince is a grapple that’s frenzies him, certainly an interesting moment to see him with red eyes.

Submit

If anyone has played Eternal Ring ,one of From Software's earlier games on the PS2,the Beast Possesed Soul reminds me very much of the werewolf (camp site and ones found in the end game dungeon) in that game. The way it moves and looks always hits me in the feels

Submit

Can be parried very easily, with the bloodborne version of the ds setup parry. Does a lot of multiple swipe attacks, so just back out the way of the first, and shoot in between the second or the third, using the first swipe as the tell that another is coming. Use clawmark if you have it, or oedon writhe/blood rapture and the fight is very easy. Can also be CC'd by many abilities e.g. can be pancaked and knocked over

Submit

someone should change it from frenzied to crazy, as frenzy is different

Submit

This thing is not a normal beast. Why does it have fire powers?

Submit

Had trouble at first, f/r/c ihyll, then remembered how easy it was to parry. Hit three visceral, threw some Molotov and a few executioner's gloves

Submit

Damn, I've never seen a worse R1 spammer than this guy...

Submit

Mine appeared to have more damage the longer fight has gone appearently his beasthood stat was building up after hitting me succesfully multiple times. at the start of the fight he needed 2 attacks to remove 70% and at the end 1 to remove 95% of my hp also, before "bloodlust" of bite kicked in

Submit

i think the fire thing is a typo...? I think fire is stronk against him

Submit

I was actually having trouble with this guy because if you get over confident with him its easy to get caught up in a combo and if your out of stamina and don't have much vitality that can be a problem, what turned this fight into a joke though was using an upgraded whirligig saw, bolt paper and the L2 attack, I love that weapon!

Submit

fought him in the lower airline loran root chalice, fire worked well against him.

Submit

I love the picture they have of him, it looks like he's saying hi.

Submit

I just learned last night while exploring a Fetid/Rotted Loran chalice that apparently, other beasts do not like this guy. I woke one up expecting a scrap, but then from a door behind him came a scourge beast that just started fighting him FOR me, and they both fell to the lower level of the room and eventually the Beast-Possessed Soul killed the scourge beast... It was probably the weirdest thing I've seen in the game yet. I guess these beasts are the type that become "infected" thanks to their obsession with hunting other beasts. That would at least explain why it can use pyromancy.

Submit

I 4-Shot him with a fully upgraded pizza cutter (jumping R2 attack ONLY). Confirmed good method for STR builds.

Submit

Just kept backing off until he finished a combo, then nailed him with the beast cutter's R2. Took awhile, but it worked.

Submit

I don't know if someone already said this, but this boss also has a grab attack. He bites you and blissfully drinks your blood before becoming charged up and red (similar to foetid enemies)

Submit

Location needs to be updated. He's not only found in dungeons. You can find a similar creature at bottom of the healing church workshop. He is not a boss, he is more like a "mini-boss" like the hostile hunters (normal but though enemy that dosent respawn)

Submit

found him on he first layer ailing loran chalice as a boss, and a glitch occurred during the fight. He tried to use the dual fireball throw spell while on a destroyed pillar, the second one hit the top of the pillar, and after casting he was stuck there. my first visceral attack wasn't even able to knock him free, and he couldn't turn around to attack me.

Submit

Assuming you fight it in a room with pillars, here's an easy way to beat it. Step 1: Counter and V.Atk. Step 2: Run away and hide behind a pillar, out of sight Step 3: It'll try to find you, seemingly get bored, and then walk back to its starting position Step 4: Walk up and V.Atk. it again. Step 5: Repeat 2-4 until dead.

Submit

Try the holy blade transformed on him. Something cool happens. He is afraid of it. You can then cheese him

Submit

you can push him in to a corner and just hammer on him with the L2 to stagger him every time, having the Hunter rune helps because of faster stamina regain

Submit

he attacks other NPCs if you lead them to him or vice versa. this is obviously not the boss version

Submit

This is by far, the most easy-to-parry boss in the game. All you have to do is just fire at him when he is attacking.

Submit

If both hands light up it willfling 2 fireballs, one hand seems to be a flame swath, and if it pulls a fist back and holds it with NO flames... Dodge. He has a flame attack he will pull occasionally where he charges up an explosive punch. With 1000 hp and decent defences it did around 950 or so, so is probably meant to finish off or one-hit. Other than the flame moves he can do a 4 swipe combo with good tracking on the 4th hit. He has a few swipe combos other than that, but strafing works fine. Boss has spawned on multiple occasions in a room with oil on the floors, so be careful of your footing.

Submit

Only came to this page to mention how great the image is, he's just happily waving hello :)

Submit

Pyromancy using boss named Beast Possessed SOUL? Similar to Keeper of Old "Lords", who also is a pyromancer.

Submit

And that seems to confirm that the Executioner's gloves to bloodtinge damage.

Submit

I fought him in Ailing Loran and surprisingly I found him to be one of my favourite fights. It was somehow tense and I remember coming close to dying, particularly after his bite attack. The way he swallowed my hunter's blood and seemed almost possessed by it was terrifying. The music only added to the fight perfectly. The only other fight that comes close is the second to last boss in the game fought upon a field of white flowers. (I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't beaten the game yet.)

Submit

Didn't the bible say something about Satan being half Ram or something? I dunno, might just be me seeing these connections.

Submit

You guys know its possible to insta-kill this guy without him fighting back right? If you drop into the tower and pull some more(highly risky/damaging) drops, youll end up behind him as he stares at the door. Charge R2 + charge R2 + visceral=ded

Submit

I'm pretty leveled up, I used my 10+ Ludwig, Fire Paper and Oil and Molotov combos and this was still a pretty intense fight, he was very aggressive and I had to watch my stamina alot. I feel like bolt could have been more effective, for some reason it seemed like fire wasn't that great, considering he's using pyromancy, he might be resistant to fire, even though he's a beast...

Submit

He's using our one advantage fire well I'm scared

Submit

I used him in the chalices to killed or distract other enemies he seems to be different than other enemies and will attack anyone or anything so long they are within agro range very useful against the witches and their summons as he can kill them in one hit

Submit

For those having trouble with the Beast-possesed Soul in the Ailing Loran Chalice, just cheese it. Grab your best physical attack weapon (surprisingly, fire does less), throw on the Oedon Writhe and Blood Rapture runes, then just visceral attack over and over. His attacks are more often than not very easy to parry, and even if you miss you stagger him. And with the runes, you gain HP and QS bullets with every visceral, so you shouldn't have any problem running low on bullets or health.
