I'm confused as to how I'm meant to progress...
I'm still fighting the first Domina. I made my character a Warden and have equipped the strongest combination of gear I could find for sale from the two merchants (Obsidian Warhammer and Leather Helmet of Intuitiion).
I'm able to damage her initially until she drinks a health potion and the background changes. But from that point on, it's entirely over. She'll kill me in 2 hits if I attack, and if I Guard I can survive 4-5. I have bought every power available to me from the skill tree, and I'm at level 8.
Am I meant to just keep grinding on the lost souls, or is there some avenue of progress that I have missed?
