I'm not sure who the right opponent for bleed is, but I think it's signfiicant that in 150 hours of playing DS I've never yet faced an opponent who used it. I haven't noticed any opponents being remotely concerned when I used a bleed weapon; when I use the Great Scythe for example, ,they're not concerned about bleed, they're too busy casually walking around (or simnply straight through), my attacks to backstab me. As for the Taurus Demon and Capra Demon, I one hit killed both of them with the Black Knight Greatsword in NG. Much more effective than bleed. And that's the issue; there's always a more effective, more reliable, more dangerous weapon to use than a bleed weapon. Since it's so easy to raise bleed resistance, and since it's so easy to avoid bleed daamage just by rolling, I fail to see why anyone would feel under any pressure from it.
