After defeating the balrog, the next map you move to is a bonus map, so don't enter the portal and destroy the giant pendant in the center to get the bonus.
some tips I found useful - after like 5% the left arm is loose and you can attack both at the same time (make multi attacking easier because no KB) - you can bring echo but not other buffs - make sure to not hit the head before you want to kill it, its going to start DP if you do.
