Which Dark Souls has the hardest DLC?

The easiest, for me, are Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1. They have some of the hardest bosses but I generally tend to get through them much easier (Which is weird because I've heard so much about how nightmarish Bloodborne's is). I think the two hardest, for me, would be DS2 Iron King and DS3 Ringed City.
