YO BRO TY SO MUCHH. Bro like i've been trying to look for bayle reaction vids but they didn't even show the second phase. I mean that was the coolest part. You are a legend.
So I heard people saying Bayle was hard, and his second phase is annoying, and I was thinking he wasn't that hard when I fought him. After seeing this it turns out he never went into his second phase when I fought him. I can only guess that I stunned him right when he was going into it and then melted his health bar too fast with ancient dragon lightning strikes. 😅

@BlackStoneDiamond that's your problem there, I think you went for the dragon too late. From my experience, if your summoning igon for the fight, somewhere between blessing level 10-15 will get you the fight you crave. In theory, I think you're supposed to do Bayle before you kill Messmer.
@@trevorjamieson8892 Yeah. I expected it to be something like Midir so I put it off until the end, just before I went for Miquella. Going NG will make it harder anyway, so there isn't an issue

That means you did 50% of his hp pool in less time than it takes him to do just one animation. Perhaps some build and/or frost damages with great luck coming from mimic and Igon attacking at that exact time made it so you dealt around 30-40k damages in less than 5 seconds ?
@@Deamonder_ nah, not at all, I didn't summon anyone, and didn't use spirits, I had a bleed build, and it didn't deal even closely so much damage. It's just a bug probably, I saw other guys in the comments have it too
FUN FACT: If you look closely at the bosses neck, you can see one of Placidusax’s heads lodged in its neck. This confirms that this was the dragon that fought Placidusax and possibly ended up causing the destruction of faram azula just from their fight. Both dragons sustained major injuries but still survived and maintained their unfathomable power to a certain extent. This disproves the fan theory of Godfrey being responsible for the decapitated heads.
The fact Asmongold accidentally got the coolest phase transition with that perfectly timed dialogue despite beintbthe most uninteresting streamer out of them all annoys me
You don't think Asmongold watching other people's content with his mouth slightly open in complete silence and then saying "huh" at the end of it is a riveting viewing experience?
There's also the fact that two of Placidusax's heads are still on it's back biting him from their battle where they were both injured in the first place.
CURSE YOU BAYLE! 🐲 I hereby vow! 💯 You will rue this day! ☀️ Behold, a true drake warrior! 🤺 And I, Igon! 👨🦱 Your fear made flesh! 🥶 Solid of scale you might be, foul dragon... 💩 But I will riddle with holes your rotten hide! 🎯 With a hail of harpoons! 🏹 With every last drop of my being! 💧
Coolest thing in any video game I've ever seen. The whole time leading up the mountain and the 3 boss fights beforehand! Everything about this had me feeling like a kid again just bursting with excitement! When he did his first flight and lasered fire I was freaking out the visuals, music, and audio of the fire beam was so insane that I had goosebumps across my whole body. I will never forget this fight.
I have played every FromSoft game except Demons Souls. I have seen the coolest attacks and transitions FromSoft has had to offer. And yet nothing has made me react as viscerally as Bayle's transition and laser attack.
bruh the phase two transition and the OST change with the magic wings coming out had to be the coolest moment I’ve ever experienced in a video game 😭I couldn’t even continue to fight after just watched in awe as he flew up and killed me with the fireballs
Fighting this dragon in NG+8 with nothing but Two-Handed "Greatsword" and Proof of a Hero ost is pure adrenaline. Will kill him again in NG+9 with the Dragon Great Katana and Drake armor set to give that pure Monster Hunter vibe.
yeah that shit was beautiful. u see this old, fucked up dragon that has this legend of being terror incarnate, then u get up there, and it’s this disheveled beast, it’s missing a leg, it’s wings are clipped. and then the motherfucker grows magic wings. bayle is literally the definition of too angry to die. so fucking sick.
I admit I HATED fighting bayle, not sure why, I just didn't find his fight fun, but my GOD was the transition such a spectacle. Reminds me of when I first fought Elden Beast with the beautiful choir, and the spectacle of attacks. Beautiful!!
@@ElectroHarmsBut who DOESNT defeat them? It seems like a right of passage in a way. If you cant handle those 2, you got not business trying to fight Bayle 😅
Midir is badass in the way a wounded beast that is cornered and willing to fight to the death. Bayle however badass because he is one of the oldest, vilest, dragons still around. He fought on equal footing with a prime Placidusax and both heavily wounded each other. Basically Bayle is the dragon equivalent of the saying "beware an old man in a field where men die young".
Nah Fatroll poker Asmond really disappointed me this DLC. Not my place to tell someone how to play but,the game itself without shield is a whole new experience.Just as it was when he streamed elden ring when it launched.Big congrats to everyone else. Atleast your hard work paid of in terms of accomplishments.🎉
This kind of silly elitism is ridiculous in my opinion. Just what is it born out of? Is there some kind of strange frustration that X Y Z streamer used an easier cheese strategy and thus didn't suffer as much as you? Anyone who views Asmon should know by now he's not that great at games. Let people less skilled use the tools the game gives them.
@@Kryto_Gaming Counterpoint: its boring as hell to watch, there's no display of skill, there's no drama, its just hiding behind a giant shield and sneaking some pokes in from time to time.
@magicarp9437 Exactly. It literally showcases a person who don't do f all but standing still with an 1 win button. I mean come on... if ppl decided to stream atleast give them something to watch.And what's even worse is to hear his opinion about the DLC and how he found content lacking. Really rubs me to wrong way that 🤣.
@@magicarp9437 Comon, I'll give you that the build is relatively boring to watch, but anyone who's watching Asmon and thinking they will get some display of mad skills is just being silly. He isn't setting out to display his skills with that build, and he's not obligated to tailor his stream in a specific way. If you watch his livestream you know what you're getting. I go to a UA-cam channel like Ongbal's if I want to see skill at Soulslike. The fact Asmongold gets so many views regardless of using a low skill build just goes to prove my point, that people are watching him for other reasons.
@@matheusst.3655 definitely not undisputedly. I see a ton of people who still prefer midir and for good reason. Bayle is deadass one spot behind midir if i were to make a tier list, but its because midir actually moves his head back down for you to have time to hit him after each combo, instead of moving all over the place and never giving consistent punish windows. He also just looks cleaner and i'm glad he doesnt have shitty tracking lightning like every elden ring dragon boss
I'm telling you, it's the brain rot they put up with on a daily basis. There should be a study saying that if your child is exposed to internet brain rot, then they'll grow up to be a Twitch Streamer. Lol. 😂
God man, that one attack Bayle does when just zooming out of there, only to come back with the most massive badass intimidating two part laser attack with the COOLEST sound effects paired with the sick OST; I pissed myself
I had the same experience Bayle was a piece of work for sure though. Sanseax was a hell of a problem because of the water in the area creating those ripple effect AoE's. Torrent hit and run was basically the only viable option without memorizing every single AI action sequence
Guys in this video I almost no hit Bayle and only got hit once in my ng+8 run im so gutted i couldnt do no hit, hopefully in the next ng+ i can 😭😭 Edit: Alright guys I get it, I know all souls games cap out at NG+7, and I just said NG+8 because i’m on my 8th playthrough and I assumed that everyone already knew 7 was the cap so I’ll change the video timestamp and description to 7.
If I'm not mistaken, you can get Bayle's Tyranny and Bayle's Flame Lightning incantations in the Grand Alter of Dragon Communion. If that's what you mean.
@@ghostface490 No, his wings are broken in the fight, so he calls upon a dragon aspect to fly. I really hated how wings were tied to ash of war instead of it being an increase jump height or spell.
@@ghostface490 Also those are super trash. While Bayle is an amazing fight. He has the worst reward out of every Bigger Boss (Base Game included). I think they could have done way better if the just gave us an overpowered Fire&Lightning Dragon Breath or even just a Dive Bomb that explodes like Mallenias Power and spreads Lava everywhere. This took me like 10 seconds to write and the ideas are already better than what we got.
@@DerNiker I mean, I wouldn't say that his rewards are the worst in the whole game. Placidusax's rewards are by far the worst boss rewards in the whole game. Bayle's flame lightning is better than Bayle's Tyranny, also Bayle's flame lightning is way better than the vast majority of dragon communion incantations and it doesn't have an outrageous wind up like the rest. Bayle's flame lightning is also capable of massive damage within the DLC because most enemies in the DLC are weak to fire damage. I think the problem that people run into is that they don't know when to use the incantations in an active combat situation, like in a boss fight. Also the reason why Placidusax's rewards are the worst is because Placidusax's ruin goes everywhere instead of its intended target and Dragon King's Cragblade is constantly out performed by Gransax's bolt, the only time Dragon King's Cragblade out performs Gransax's Bolt is during PvP.
Just forget about ancient dragons. I think it's the combinaison of utmost stance resistance combined with small legs for a very high body, but the fight against them is so frustrating imo. Perhaps a mage build has more fun, if someone is using magic and would like to share his opinion perhaps ?
@@Urlastnerve I mean I can agree with that, just annoying how they know how to make a decent dragon fight… then they go and put 20 ancient dragons and drakes in the world who are so boring and tedious to fight, maybe it’s a bit more engaging with the new dragon hunter
Bayle and [REDACTED] were the only bosses i didnt mind spending like 20 deaths til i killed them. i couldn't get bored of Igon's speech, wether he was useful in the fight or not lmao and [REDACTED's] music was fucking GLORIOUS

please don't give FS new ideas. (inner me: would absolutely love to fight that version)
Bayle is the reason we see Plasidsusax all messed up and missing a head.
@@ugcxgod9369 oh nah
@@ugcxgod9369he's missing 3 of those actually😂
@@ugcxgod9369as well as placidusax being the reason Bayle has bone wings and missing a leg
CURSE YOU BAYYYYYLE!!!
CUUURRSEE YOU BAAAYYYLLLEE!!!!
Nah Fatroll poker Asmond really disappointed me this DLC. Not my place to tell someone how to play but,the game itself without shield is a whole new experience.Just as it was when he streamed elden ring when it launched.Big congrats to everyone else. Atleast your hard work paid of in terms of accomplishments.🎉
Yee, its really a L that he played Easy-Mode
This kind of silly elitism is ridiculous in my opinion. Just what is it born out of? Is there some kind of strange frustration that X Y Z streamer used an easier cheese strategy and thus didn't suffer as much as you? Anyone who views Asmon should know by now he's not that great at games. Let people less skilled use the tools the game gives them.
@@Kryto_Gaming Counterpoint: its boring as hell to watch, there's no display of skill, there's no drama, its just hiding behind a giant shield and sneaking some pokes in from time to time.
@magicarp9437 Exactly. It literally showcases a person who don't do f all but standing still with an 1 win button. I mean come on... if ppl decided to stream atleast give them something to watch.And what's even worse is to hear his opinion about the DLC and how he found content lacking. Really rubs me to wrong way that 🤣.
@@magicarp9437 Comon, I'll give you that the build is relatively boring to watch, but anyone who's watching Asmon and thinking they will get some display of mad skills is just being silly. He isn't setting out to display his skills with that build, and he's not obligated to tailor his stream in a specific way. If you watch his livestream you know what you're getting. I go to a UA-cam channel like Ongbal's if I want to see skill at Soulslike. The fact Asmongold gets so many views regardless of using a low skill build just goes to prove my point, that people are watching him for other reasons.
Bayle is quite literally the definition of: "too angery to die". Lol. 😂
Honestly top 3 best bosses in the whole dlc
I agree
Top 3 FromSoftware bosses, undisputedly the best dragon they ever did.
@@matheusst.3655 definitely not undisputedly. I see a ton of people who still prefer midir and for good reason. Bayle is deadass one spot behind midir if i were to make a tier list, but its because midir actually moves his head back down for you to have time to hit him after each combo, instead of moving all over the place and never giving consistent punish windows. He also just looks cleaner and i'm glad he doesnt have shitty tracking lightning like every elden ring dragon boss
@@firstorderblade4432don’t care Bayle best boy :)
Top 3 best looking bosses and moveset but top 3 fight? HELL NO!
Bayle going Godzilla mode and spamming a fucking nuclear beam is so sick this is one of the best bosses From Soft has ever made.
Streamers be soulless sometimes
I'm telling you, it's the brain rot they put up with on a daily basis. There should be a study saying that if your child is exposed to internet brain rot, then they'll grow up to be a Twitch Streamer. Lol. 😂
this is fucking cool dragon i fight ever in the game 🙏🏻🔥🔥🔥
God man, that one attack Bayle does when just zooming out of there, only to come back with the most massive badass intimidating two part laser attack with the COOLEST sound effects paired with the sick OST; I pissed myself
This fight is marginally easier if you only lock on to him when he flies around.
or only lock off if you're going for his left leg, otherwise stay locked on for his head
Sanessax was way harder for me
Respectfully, u got issues mate.
How.
What can I tell you, Bayle took me 6 tries while Senessax took me more than 20 until I gave up and just did hit and run with torrent
I had the same experience Bayle was a piece of work for sure though. Sanseax was a hell of a problem because of the water in the area creating those ripple
effect AoE's.
Torrent hit and run was basically the only viable option without memorizing every single AI action sequence
Same here. That AOE delay was so annoying. Plus I feel like ancient dragons are just harder to hit in general with the long necks and skinny bodies
Guys in this video I almost no hit Bayle and only got hit once in my ng+8 run im so gutted i couldnt do no hit, hopefully in the next ng+ i can 😭😭
Edit: Alright guys I get it, I know all souls games cap out at NG+7, and I just said NG+8 because i’m on my 8th playthrough and I assumed that everyone already knew 7 was the cap so I’ll change the video timestamp and description to 7.
damn bro, really nice dodges
it was such a easy one too bro dodged into the beam
This fight I'm being defeated many times but I'm enjoying it so much bro... It's SOOOOO OGOOOOOOOOD
CURSE YOU BAYLE!
This is the best dragon boss fight I’ve ever experienced!
Bro never experienced Kalameet
Fatalis says *bonjour*
@@uncavallo2580 he probably has
@@uncavallo2580just stop lurking in the comments. If you don’t like this boss, play something else you enjoy.
exactly
best fromsoft dragon boss for me . Absolute Cinema
I thought Dark Eater Mydir from DS3 was hard, but this guy was on a whole different level.
Midir was a fight of endurance, not hardship, Bayle takes less time to get killed even though he does resemble Midir in terms of fight design.
Yup mydir has nothing on bayle,its like a worm to a bird.
DS3's dlc bosses look like they come from tutorial levels compared to the bosses in ER, that's how far Fromsoft has come
I really wish they gave us bayles dragonic aspect, that way we could have wing attacks to complete the dragon hand and crucible tail.
If I'm not mistaken, you can get Bayle's Tyranny and Bayle's Flame Lightning incantations in the Grand Alter of Dragon Communion. If that's what you mean.
@@ghostface490 No, his wings are broken in the fight, so he calls upon a dragon aspect to fly. I really hated how wings were tied to ash of war instead of it being an increase jump height or spell.
@@rpghood7231 Oh, ok. Now I see. Yeah it sucks that the wings are tied to an ash of war, instead of being an incantation or spell.
@@ghostface490 Also those are super trash. While Bayle is an amazing fight. He has the worst reward out of every Bigger Boss (Base Game included).
I think they could have done way better if the just gave us an overpowered Fire&Lightning Dragon Breath or even just a Dive Bomb that explodes like Mallenias Power and spreads Lava everywhere.
This took me like 10 seconds to write and the ideas are already better than what we got.
@@DerNiker I mean, I wouldn't say that his rewards are the worst in the whole game. Placidusax's rewards are by far the worst boss rewards in the whole game. Bayle's flame lightning is better than Bayle's Tyranny, also Bayle's flame lightning is way better than the vast majority of dragon communion incantations and it doesn't have an outrageous wind up like the rest. Bayle's flame lightning is also capable of massive damage within the DLC because most enemies in the DLC are weak to fire damage. I think the problem that people run into is that they don't know when to use the incantations in an active combat situation, like in a boss fight. Also the reason why Placidusax's rewards are the worst is because Placidusax's ruin goes everywhere instead of its intended target and Dragon King's Cragblade is constantly out performed by Gransax's bolt, the only time Dragon King's Cragblade out performs Gransax's Bolt is during PvP.
We want Igon
Might be the best boss fromsoft has ever made, even the lines the npc has are fucking epic
lmao "thats the devil. im fighting the devil."
I felt this pain... I felt it through my soul... NG+7 Bayle... Lord...
Yah had to do the same .... NG+7 Bayle was fucking hard
@@Pertuarbo bud remove 70% of my health with one tail swing😂
couldn't remember his name so he for me is forever known as .....dale THE DREAD!!!
@JamesCastle-vd1lc GRAAAAH!!! DALE THE DREAD!! YOU SHALL HAUNT ME NO LONGER!!
FromSoft are the absolute kings of making badass dragon boss fights.
Just forget about ancient dragons. I think it's the combinaison of utmost stance resistance combined with small legs for a very high body, but the fight against them is so frustrating imo. Perhaps a mage build has more fun, if someone is using magic and would like to share his opinion perhaps ?
Bruh they’ve made 3 good dragon fights in like 15 lol
@@Ar17778 I’m not talking about the generic ones scattered around. I’m talking about the main bosses with set pieces and arenas.
@@Urlastnerve I mean I can agree with that, just annoying how they know how to make a decent dragon fight… then they go and put 20 ancient dragons and drakes in the world who are so boring and tedious to fight, maybe it’s a bit more engaging with the new dragon hunter
I just beat Bayle. I thought I would have gotten remembrance, but all I got was a big dragons heart..🤷🏻♂️🏴
You use that at the grand alter of dragon commion at jagged peak to get some new spells.
It’s basically a remembrance, but in the form of a heart
Favourite boss in the game, it had me yelling with igon from the epicness
Anyone else notice that Bayle's arena is a more rocky/primitive version of Placidusax's?
both are top tier dragons so it fits
Well they fought so it makes sense, you can even see the 2 heads placi lost during their battle on bayle's back
He didn’t summon Igon what a tragedy
I killed igon 😅😅😅
May your woes be many, and your days few @@fearofdeath2129
Bro why is indontai in a lot of the thumbnails but not the vids
@@skulkyt oh that sucks
So many “I’m dead…I’m alive!!” Moments
Bayle and [REDACTED] were the only bosses i didnt mind spending like 20 deaths til i killed them.
i couldn't get bored of Igon's speech, wether he was useful in the fight or not lmao
and [REDACTED's] music was fucking GLORIOUS
Thanks for no spoilers
And the cutscene you get when you first encounter [REDACTED] goes SO FUCKING HARD. I was glued to the screen.
Hmmmmm….i think y’all be talking about Mess-(gets shot)
Are you talking about that one [Redacted] in that one "mansion"?
Best boss in elden ring
Coolest boss in either main game or dlc
ABSOLUTE CINEMA
smol detail regarding this 1-legged hell beast of a dragon owo
*spoiler warning for some folks seeing this comment!*
THIS PUNTER IS THE ONE WHO TORE OFF SOME OF DRAGON LORD PLACIDUSAX'S HEADS AND LEFT THE DRAGON LORD LOOKING WORSE FOR WARE.
Not only that, Placidusax’s heads are still latched onto Bayle’s body.
It's crazy that he used his lost arm as a weapon
And Bayle still lost
@@OneMadCatI think its draw
