The new bosses hit harder than fire gigant and are somewhat aggressive, similar to some bosses of bloodborne. And yes the camarera definitely helps many of them, but overall this is a pretty easy dlc but very fun 👍
@@eliasfigarzon9813 what the- did I just enter a new universe where the dlc bosses don’t all have the combos of morgot with the damage of maliketh? Or do you just play souls way too much, ooor did you get as many scadutree fragments as you could, ooooor do you use crazy builds, cuz either you have a strange talent at fighting alternate versions of malenia’s phase 2 and walking nukes or something that I said above is true
The fact that you scale the characters for fair fights make these so entertaining. Others just put them in as it is and its so predictable and boring to watch
@purplestrawberrysunset They probably mean that they were scaled against Bayle and Messmer but not against Dancing Lion for the sake of fairness, which overall lets us have more entertaining fights that aren't "this boss will win because it's stats are way higher" (most of the time anyways, Godrick ain't ever winning a match lol).
13:09 Dancing Lion and Elden Beast both flying into the air to charge one of their strongest moves, just for Dancing Lion to snipe him out of the air was the BEST possible finish, that absolutely ruled
This explains why Marika needed to genocide the Hornsent - their freaking festival dancers in a costume beats the shit out of anything under the Erdtree 😂
Placi was SO CLOSE, goddamn.... GG to the divine beast for the tornado move to dodge the lasers though. It was pretty funny seeing Godfrey stunlock him to death. I had hope For Rennala at the beginning.... And OMG Morgott ! Please do more equal scaling with him, it heals my soul to see him win.
The DLC bosses are mainly more difficult because a lot of their attacks have less recovery time compared to the base game. They literally attack with little to no break and their combo strings are longer.
it is not exactly true that they give little/few breaks. They pause only if you are behind them. Which is something none of the AI actually tries/is programmed to do.
13:19 I love the little strut and shimmy the lion does after killing Elden Beast. It looks so proud of itself lol. Love how expressive they made the animations of these new bosses.
Although Morgott and the Beast are not directly related nor do they probably know about each other's cultures, their looks are similar due to their relation to the Crucible. Morgott was born afflicted with a Crucible aspect, which manifests as disfiguration and especially spontaneously sprouting spiraling horns. In times of Golden Order the Crucible and Omen such as Morgott are shunned or even hunted for what is widely considered a curse of theirs. The Beast is a divine spirit that originates from culture that worshipped the Crucible - the Hornsent, who took pride in bearing the tangled horns and saw them as a sign that they are chosen people. This culture was burned to the ground almost entirely during Messmer's crusde, and we can assume that was the moment when the Crucible became hated. The age of Marika's reign literally began with a purge of its worshippers, and she herself achieved godhood by using the Divine Gate atop the Hornsent's sacred spiral tower, which probably was one of the main reasons the war happened in the first place
i'm a little confused as to why these bosses usually face Radagon and Elden Beast separately. i think they should have to survive them both in one go like we do lol
Cool video, though I worry that the choice of arena may have given the divine beast a bit of an advantage. With all the fights taking place in a pool of water and the divine beast having lightning attacks that he uses often, that's a free 10% damage boost for a boss that's already stronger than most of its opponents
I love how glitched the targetting can be when it's boss vs boss. They get the reverse Mr. Magoo syndrome, but when a player does the "this little piggy went to market" they do a Sioux Rain Dance.
Damn, proud of my boy Godfrey getting a rare these days W. A shame that Radahn and Placi missed it by a sliver, they almost did it. Rennala did actually quite well too, damn.
He (they? it?) will go down in history as the weakest mandatory boss in the DLC, but holy moly was the fight cinematic! The different storms were all so visually captivating 🤩
You should keep the NG+7 scaling regardless of the DLC boss health, (or scale their stats specifically like the Scadutree Fragments do). The DLC bosses all have faster, higher damage dealing movesets to begin with, while the main story bosses are more "fair" and balanced. It also makes the fight make more sense and I'm not left scratching my head wondering why Dragonlord Placidusax would lose to someone else's minion.
Such cool FX with the dragons: Red vs. Yellow vs. White Lightnings Placidusax Fight was a real nail biter: It all came down to one lightning strike each
25:4425:47this was one of my favorite parts i like how Mohg reflected that lightning ⚡from the dancing lion and did a final stabbing defense man (▀̿Ĺ̯▀̿ ̿) this is amazing to watch
Could there be a shorter video between both version of Vyke vs The Frenzied Lord (or whatever his name is). Also, would it be possible to give NPCs and bosses the equivalent of Scadutree Fragments? If so, could you give it to both Vykes? I want to see if he truly was the one, other than us, to be closest to becoming Lord of Frenzied Flame.
Idk about you guys, but there's something incredibly poetic about two people mimicking what they consider a sacred beast that represents all things animalistic/from nature around us actively going toe to toe with an ACTUAL divine beast that represents all things astral/from space... and WIN.
And keep in mind that this is still the EASIEST Boss in the DLC

Godfrey: the only Lion around here is ME!
The fact that it’s two guys in a costume makes it even funnier.
Man, that fight against Placidusax was clutch!
21:22 The Dancing Lion flying over two of the lasers is just pure anime. Too bad he ended up getting hit and staggering anyways
Placidusax got robbed of that win thanks to his ai not being able to swoop down low enough twice.

Ah, yes, my favorite boss: the camera
Seeing this boss I would have liked to see a whole dlc based around the hornsent and the bosses would be different animals.
Mohg never disappoint in fights. You never know the outcome and once he gets in phase two it's almost always iconic sequences !
"My bones" - Sir Gideon, the all broken. Shattered even.
Someone yet unseen makes me wish I could be a tarnished of that caliber

That second Radahn fight was so sick. Him coming down as a meteor while Divine beast tries to hit him with lightning was cinematic as hell.
ok that death rite bird one needs a rematch ,seems like the lion bugged out and stood around doing nothing
Rematch with the strongest death rite bird from the dlc. 🤔
The Placi clutch dodge followed immediately by a throw was great. I would prefer a non water arena tho in general
Rick like " I have defeated the lion now, where's that squirel?".
lion dancer is my favorite boss of the dlc. he's so much fun to watch!
also has the best new theme ❤
lmao the first guy just got straight-up mauled by a lion
Man, Morgot did it so damn good, our boy finally got some win!!
Nice to see Rennala hold her own for a bit. She usually gets destroyed in these kinds of videos
Morgott and divine beast looks like they are truly dancing
Basically demigods and legendary beings fighting two dudes double-cheeked up with a lion head
2 years was worth it for this level of quality
That fight with daddy loux was for the ages, what a crazy scrap. RNG was perfect

21:46 You missed?! How could you miss?! He was standing 3 feet in front of you!
Man, this is brutal! and to think that this is one of the easiest bosses in the DLC is crazy!
unfathomably satisfying Death Rite Bird clutch win
Rennala was just stun locking this mans till he pulled a "That's enough" and blasted her.
Rick making a comeback lets goooo
Also why do i feel like hes going on a main character arc with that new name 😅
That death rite bird fight had me on the edge of my seat honestly
You could do Modded Bosses vs DLC Bosses? Like Morgott Lord of Grace, Unalloyed Malenia, or the Edgy Lord Mohg mod that makes Mohg crazy?
