Many bosses are really hard and have racked up a dozen kills per player.

What boss has the community labeled as a pushover that you've died an embarrassing number of times to?

Crystal Sage from DS3 has killed me at least 8 times every playthrough, but every forum I've visited has made them seem easy.

Maybe not a pushover, but I died an embarrassingly large number of times.

In Elden Ring, some of the evergaols and bosses wandering the worldmap were harder than actual bosses. Ringleader's Evergaol took me like 10 tries.

The dancer in DS3 made my wife and kids check up on me.

Ah hello there 'Early Dancer PTSD', my old friend.

Dancer has my favorite armor, so I always get her early. It's a nightmare.

Yeah, Ringleader's Evergaol was rough, took me over 30 tries. I was a bit under-leveled when I first found it and after getting my ass handed to me for 10 or so attempts I decided to mark it and return later, went back after leveling up a bit and died another 15 times or so. Came back a 3rd time after defeating Mohg on my 4th attempt and finally cleared the evergaol after about 8 more attempts.
