Rare opponent/Boss Boss - Lost Sinner
Run down the stairs.
Your journey in this location begins near probably the worst bonfire in the game - every time you respawn, you will be immediately attacked by a group of crossbowmen. To get rid of them, approach of the enemies with a raised shield to force him into close combat. After he draws his sword, back up and wait for him to follow you. Defeat him in direct combat - rinse and repeat until all the enemies are killed. Climb down the ladder and run downstairs, defeating the crossbowmen located at the bottom. There's a corpse located at the corner of the room - you can collect a Human Effigy from it. There's a group of three crossbowmen lurking in the room. Use a ranged weapon to defeat them - lean out from behind a wall and fire at them.
Use the elevator.
After you've defeated the enemies, use the elevator and ride it down - jump on a wooden ledge at the right moment to collect a Lacerating Knife . After reaching the lower level, use the stairs to get into a water-filled room. You will encounter a new enemy here - water giants. Fight them one by one, jumping back before their attacks. Avoid his tail attack, as it deals a high amount of damage. There are three water giants awaiting you in this location. Kill the first one and collect a Sublime Bone Dust from the room he came out of. The next one protects the corpse with souls and after defeating the lest one you will get a Bell Keeper Shield .
Run through the flooded corridor.
Go along the flooded corridor - at the stairs, on the right side, you will encounter another exploding mummy. You can climb the left and/or the right stairs to defeat the enemies and collect the items. The cells below, in the deep water, hide another enemies - fight them one by one, as engaging a group of kamikaze-mummies may prove fatal. After searching through the cells, you will acquire a Pharros Lockstone and souls. Use the switch to raise the grating. Again, you can summon Lucatiel Of Mirrah to aid you in battle - a place to summon the phantom is located near the elevator.
Light up the torches.
Run through the bridge towards the mist - at its end search the terrain thoroughly, as you will find an item to pick up here. Go upstairs and open the grating with the Bastille Key . Inside, light up the oil in the trough by using the torch. Repeat the process in the room behind the stairs, on the opposite side - you will illuminate the boss' arena with this, making the encounter a lot easier. Go through the mist and engage the Lost Sinner . After the fight, go through the door and open the chest - inside you will find a Fragrant Branch of Yore and an Elizabeth Mushroom . In the further part of the room, light up the bonfire, which will teleport you automatically to the Majula. With the help of the former item you can light up the bonfire in The Lost Bastille , which was blocked by a stone statue.
