Notable Info

The name of the game against the Bell Bearing Hunter is patience, never get greedy and go for more than one attack, and only when there’s an opening as he can quickly overwhelm you. Take the time to learn his attack patterns, the Three-hit Combo is the best time to get a strike on him once you learn how to roll through the attacks. Likewise, when he does his Shield Rush, once you know how the timing, you can roll at the last minute to land next to him and leave him wide-open.

Whenever you see him charging his Corkscrew, forgo everything else and dash backwards as fast as possible, if you think you’re too close to him as he’s winding up, resort to constant rolling to avoid the incoming blast. The other main attack to watch for is when he walks towards you with his hand glowing, he’ll soon lunge forward and attempt to grab you. This cannot be blocked and should he catch you, he’ll deal a massive amount of damage to you.

If you’re playing as a magic user, then the Bell Bearing Hunter becomes a lot easier to manage, you can keep yourself at range on horseback, taking care to avoid the Sword Throw Combo and Corkscrew attacks, and pelt him with magic, avoiding some of the deadlier attacks he will use against you.

All encounters with the Bell Bearing Hunter will use the same attacks, check out our guide on the Limgrave encounter for more details.
