There are some bosses in Demon\u2019s Souls that absolutely cannot be beaten. Luckily, Maneater isn\u2019t one of them. There\u2019s no trick to this enemy. It\u2019s all about skill and determination. You need to get into the arena and beat it fair and square with the skills you\u2019ve learned throughout the rest of the game. With that said, this guide should help you get the upper hand in all encounters too. <\/p>\n

Ground Attacks<\/h2>\n

The Maneater has a lot of attacks to combat. The first of these is a single-handed pounce. It\u2019ll jump at you and bring one fist down to cause damage. You can dodge it to either side, or block it if you\u2019re good enough. <\/p>\n

The boss can also jump and come down with a two-handed pounce. This will cause loads of damage too. It\u2019s best to dodge right out of the way of this one. You can block it, but only if you have a shield with the highest Guard Break Reduction rating. <\/p>\n

The third pounce attack is a literal pounce. You\u2019ll see the boss get down on all fours and leap at you. Once again, it\u2019s better to dodge out of the way of this one. If you\u2019ve got the strongest of shields, you might just be able to block it. <\/p>\n

Maneater can also emit a sonic wave attack. This will hit you with magical damage if it hits you, but you can avoid it if you step out of the way. <\/p>\n

The final ground attack in the arsenal for this boss is the power boost. The boss\u2019 snake tail will bite it and charge it up with increased attack power. As this process happens, you can get a lot of attacks in on the boss. Do so and then avoid it while it\u2019s powered up.<\/p>\n

Aerial Attacks<\/h2>\n

What makes Maneater quite impressive is its range of aerial attacks that complement its ground attacks. The boss can fall onto the player and pound them with two hands. This deals loads of damage, so roll out of the way to avoid it. <\/p>\n

The boss can emit a sonic wave while flying, but it\u2019s no different to the ground version. <\/p>\n

Finally, the boss can use a Homing Soul Arrow. It fires three Soul Arrows that will track you and deal serious damage. You can prevent this attack from ever happening if you cut off the snake tail. <\/p>\n

Tactics<\/h2>\n

You can use ranged and magic to destroy the boss, but they\u2019re arguably harder than a straight melee build. By getting up close and personal, you can cut off the boss\u2019 tail straight away and prevent power boos and one flying attack. You can also move nimbly around it to avoid attacks. <\/p>\n

At range, the boss has plenty of moves to both close the gap and deal damage. You\u2019re totally exposed if you\u2019re too far away. The best way to take it down is by being up in its face and attacking as much as possible. (https:\/\/hungryenoughtoeatsix.com\/<\/a>) <\/p>\n
