15. Who is the true final boss of the entire Dark Souls series?
Gael is the final boss of DS3's final DLC, The Ringed City. As of yet, there is no fourth entry planned.
Because if we're counting phases within one health bar, like just a shift in style, then basically every DS3 boss would have 2 or more phases. An exception I guess would be Gael, since he has a cutscene in between even if he doesn't get a new bar.
