How to beat Mytha the Baneful Queen in Dark Souls 2

Guides
By published

As with The Lost Sinner boss encounter, Mytha the Baneful Queen is much easier with a bit of prep work. If you've tried to fight her already, you may have noticed her room is full of poison, which a) heals her and b) makes staying alive quite difficult. But there's a way to get rid of that!

You can follow a small ledge to reach the windmill's shaft--and if you use a torch to catch it on fire, there's no more poison. Afterward, return to the boss, and you'll find her much easier to take care of. Need more assistance? Check out the video above.
