Your best bet is to draw the larger enemies back to the boss arena and fight it there, but if you’re brave feel free to fight it on the hill. Be careful fighting on the narrow pathway as you can easily fall off the cliff in the heat of battle.

There are two large enemies with a cages on their backs patrolling near the top of the hill, with a sorceress at the bottom. Head to the Crystal Sage bonfire in the Road of Sacrifices area, and continue through the opening in the corner and up the hill just beyond. You can also find Unbreakable Patches and join the covenant of Rosaria, Mother of Rebirth where you can reallocate your attributes or alter your appearance. In the Cathedral of the Deep you will find the Paladin’s Ashes, Crest Shield, Notched Whip, Curse Ward Greatshield, Saint-tree Bellvine, Astora Greatsword, an Undead Bone Shard, Estus Shard, Maiden, Dung and Thorn armor sets, Aldrich’s Sapphire ring and more. This is an optional area that you can access after defeating the Crystal Sage boss in the Road to Sacrifices area. This guide offers a walkthrough of the Cathedral of the Deep area in Dark Souls 3.
