The Pursuer
This is an Artorias-like fight. Pretty simple if you can dodge well. The Pursuer will glide and charge towards you quickly and has a giant ass sword. He holds his sword in his right hand and has a shield in his left, so dodging to your right seems like the best idea. Be careful of two different special attacks:
He will pause, his greatsword will glow blue, and then he will attack you with a thrust. This attack must be dodged or you will get impaled on it and cursed and it will do a ton of damage. If you get cursed by him, the Pursuer will now do a periodic attack where he shoots bolts of dark magic at you which do a ton of damage. The other attack he does to watch out for is a three hit combo, two lateral swipes followed up by a jumping spin attack that will lock onto you if you're close enough, so be sure to roll away from him if you see him jump up in there air. There is also an attack where he does an overhead two handed attack, when it misses he will be bent forward with his sword on the ground for a couple of seconds. Don't get too close when he does this because it will stun you even if the blade doesn't connect and you will be unable to move for a second or two. Stay out of range of this attack and then go in for a couple of quick strikes, then back off, and get ready to roll right or back/right to dodge his attacks. One side of his arena is a cliff which is pretty easy to roll off of. Manage the distance between you and the Pursuer and leave yourself room either behind you or preferably to your right so you can roll safely out of range of his attacks. If you're good at rolling this fight should be trivial.
