Since the rat boss is broken, we'll head further in "cavity" and then to "deep, narrow". We got a lot of boss fights in this one, get hyped!
Songs used (in order of appearance):
Tidal Wave - Silent Partner
Riffs For Days - TrackTribe
Buckeye Bonzai - Vans in Japan
Fire Breather - Silent Partner
Thor's Hammer - Ethan Meixsell
Endless Motion - Bensound
Mods used (Scholar of the First Sin edition only):
EDIT: the enemy randomizer (and likely some of the other mods) are broken on current patch of DS2 SotFS. You will need to downpatch to get it to work. Some of the Nexus mods might have been updated for the 2022 patch of the game, so downpatching could break these, but there may be a previous versions still available in the files section, you'll need to take a look.
You can follow the instructions found here for downpatching, replacing DS3 for DS2 SotFS:

For the depot download command, I think the one to use is:
download_depot 335300 335301 6969394704102823372
This is based off the App ID from the DS2 steam page:
steamdb.info/app/335300/depots
and the manifest number for the patch for the game in 2015:
steamdb.info/depot/335301/history/?changeid=M:6969394704102823372
I have yet to test this command so let me know if it works!
Once you have followed the downpatching instructions, put steam in offline mode for playing. The current version of steam seems to not allow games to not be updated while online, even if you mess with the config files (had a lot of trouble with this in DS3). If anyone follows these instructions and has issues, please let me know in the comments and I can try to help!
