Make a Dark Souls Boss
No point in hiding this, but I am straight up stealing this post from G2A on facebook. Anyway, come up with what you think is a good Dark Souls Boss! Here is mine.
Where to start...Dark Souls 2 had a lack of a staged boss, like ornstein and smough. So here is my suggestion.
Mimic King:
You open the fog door, and all there is in the room is a chest. It will obviously be a mimic, so when you defeat it (or get chomped and come back and defeat it), the room (which will be a medium sized room) will expand and the mimic will come back to life but a little bigger and a boss bar.
It will be a standard mimic fight, just harder, using normal mimic moveset from Dark Souls 2 with one extra ability that activates at about 1/3 life remaining. He will do a fake stun when you hit him, and after a second or two, if you hit him again with a melee, will catch the weapon and do some durability damage, while also tossing the player for damage (it should hurt most, but not one shot the weakest).
Once he is defeated, he should then become a perfect mirror or "mimic" of the player, no matter what class they are using. Obviously the stats will be buffed for the mimic, but the fight will play like a mirror match. No special moves or anything, but it will be a pretty decent challenge. If you are using a weapon with a special ability, then the mimic can use it, and if you are using sorceries, the mimic can use those as well.
Finally, once all is said and done, you will get ~30k souls and the Soul of the Mimic King, along with the mimic helm from DS1. You can use the Soul of the Mimic King to get 10K souls or trade for a spell that gives your shield a corrosive effect against weapons that hit it. Beware, the spell slowly erodes your shield as well.
Well, that's my idea. Hope you guys like it!

Edited by TyrannosaurusRex: 5/2/2014 2:54:51 AMBrutus. A huge horned man covered in thick fur and bulging muscles with the head of a bear. Extremely fast and strong, and hits very hard. A demon created when a simple but large man was rejected by his peers because of his abnormal size dumb nature cast himself to the flame and was reborn with a hatred for all. Would appear in new game: A great warrior cast him into a dark dungeon deep beneath the Tower eons ago to protect the world. Now Brutus is corrupted by dark, and his power even more immense. He would attack with his fists, head, and stomp on any downed opponent if within range. Only the best tank build could handle him, or light builds controlled by good timing. No one shot, but his attacks are very fast and brutal and it's best to stay away from him. Very high level boss. You have to bring his health down three times per encounter as his rage is so violent he refuses to go down. Moves slower but hits harder, and has less health. A horn would fall off each time he falls, and the last time he would fall, but his head would lie in lava and his face would melt off. His second appearance his head is bone but dark oozes out. Third encounter is in Majula in 7th play through. Only if defeated when consumed by darkness. Comes back even more skeleton like and darkness oozes out in all wounds and his flesh is rotting. Can now one shot kill with a crushing hammer fist or bite that poisons. He crawls out of the huge hole. Awrads 50k souls, plus another 10k upon each defeat. Lore would explain his werabouts. First defeat provides horned helm. Second provides an armor of bone and matted fur. Third provides a bone fist hammer, upon using his soul. After this he will be encountered once per playthrough in orginal spot, a mere skeleton with no extra perks. Lacks his speed but can still one hit kill. He will drop a scapula and provide a shield. All of his loot is very heavy, and you will fat roll no matter what. Very high damage res.
