Dark Souls 3 Iudex Gundyr Boss Battle Guide
After reaching 50% of HP, the second phase of the battle starts. The boss begins transforming during which time it becomes vulnerable which is your cue to dish out some damage without worrying about counter-attacks.
During the second phase of the boss fight, the boss gains increased damage and more range, but the general technique and tactics to defeat the boss remains the very same.
If you know how to parry, you should have no difficulty in parrying all attacks executed by the boss, but if you do not how, try to get behind him and attack from there. If you stay in front, he will grab you at close range and leap at you from a distance.
