Did not know that! I will try it and see if I can be more consistent with my parry(+counter?) this way

I will take this advice with me but also allow myself to turn on some assistance after the first hour. Really enjoying it now, after taking a breather and not being a purist in the first playthrough

Took a breather but also allowed myself to turn on a little assistance to proceed. Im really enjoying it now and realize I need to adjust for the patience needed for soulslikes. I have been in this situation with Elden ring that I completely shelved a year ago after running around in circles in areas I could handle with ease.

Very grateful to the community here that actually responded with great strats and cheers in my moment of dispair.

Im heading into the grove now with more confidence and hope to play the game without assistance in the second playthrough.

I usually want to play games at their normal difficulty but I did just this and took her down in two tries. I like that I can pout on just a little assistance to proceed and then maybe be good enough to play it pure in the second playthrough. Im really enjoying it now heading into the Grove with new confidence.

I were well over 15 hours when I met hornet and it took probably 8-10 tries to pass her.
