Covetous Demon

The Covetous Demon is a boss in Dark Souls II.

Location
The Covetous Demon is located in the Harvest Valley.

Description
The Covetous Demon takes the appearence of a grotesque creature whose body looks somewhat similar to the real-life mole rat. It has slimy skin, large forelegs but seemingly no hindlegs, and a tail. It also has a large mouth with many sharp teeth.

Strategy
The Covetous Demon's attacks are either easy to avoid, predictable or both. Most are short ranged, although the jumping attacks can cover a lot of ground. It also gives the player ample time to counterattack after some of its attacks are performed, making for a rather easy boss.

Attacks
Claw Swipe: Pulls its forearm back and swipes. Has moderate tracking, so if dodging, do so when it actually swipes.

Rolling Attack: Readies its body briefly, then rolls sideways towards the player. It can do this twice in a row.

Long Rolling Attack: Readies its body for a longer period than the normal rolling attack, and rolls on to its side, giving the player a good chance to attack, and rolls upright again.

Tail Slam: Lifts its tail into the air, then slams it down 2 or 3 times. Done when the player is behind the demon, it is a good chance to attack the front or sides of the boss.

Jumping Attack: The Demon pauses for a moment, then jumps into the air in an attempt to land on the player. Roll out of the way as it is jumping.

Acid Spit: The Demon spits out multiple balls of an unidentified liquid of some sort. They have a rather short range, so simply run away from the Demon to avoid.
