How hard is the Cleric Beast?

The Cleric Beast is a significant difficulty spike for new Bloodborne players, often seen as a tough "skill check" because of its large size, high damage, and aggressive combos, but it's manageable by exploiting fire, breaking its limbs for staggers, and learning its slow, telegraphed attacks, especially if you use Molotovs and Oil Urns to deal easy damage from a distance before engaging up close. While some find it brutally hard due to under-leveled stats and item scarcity early on, others find it easier than later bosses, especially with summons or proper strategy like hitting its legs and head for Visceral Attacks.
