Talk:Manus, Father of the Abyss/@comment-10518399-20131029211333/@comment-24704831-20140322184753

Did the AWC stop to consider that maybe you planned to buy the DLC on Thursday but just never did? Anyway, there's no real good strategy. A lot of it is up to luck, especially after he drops below 50%. Then it gets rough. If you stick close, you can force him to stick to melee and minimize his magic attacks, still you need to be good at rolling or have a shield with good stability and 100% Damage Reduction. Sif can help take the heat off of you, but don't put all your hope in him, Manus hits hard and Sif isn't the bulkiest summon. Heal between his combos and strike when you can safely, and you shouldn't have too much trouble. But still, this IS Dark Souls, so be prepared to die a few times before it works. Good luck, and praise the Sun.
