And now this boss got easier cause we now KNOW he can be staggered. I love vids like these, whenever a boss is shown to he parriable or staggered, the stress goes down
@@drexalte69 tbh I truly cant say. A few bosses I fought never got staggered despite me keeping the pressure up and usimg weapons that deal high poise damage
@@hidan407 Yes I think literally every boss and maybe even enemy I can think of can be staggered. For me to trigger certain bosses I need the charge attack talisman and the physic that makes stance breaking more easy, and of course I gotta do fully charged attacks.
@@hidan407 if u didnt know, enemies' poise resets over time but it depends on the boss/enemy. could be 10 seconds, could be like 6. so if you dont hit them for a certain number of seconds their stagger is completely reset :(
I think the worst part of this DLC is that if you try to play like you normally would in the main game it is a slog, but you can trivialize the entire thing with basically any greatshield. The boss design is overall terrible imo.
Well done. I have noticed that with these DLC bosses it does not matter how well the fight is going. They can turn it around at any point and destroy you. I have see fights that are literally flawless and then a mistake can end you right at the end just like that. Congrats again in the victory :)
I had the chance to beat him again in NG+ but this time I managed to beat him more easily with impenetrable thorns, so i recommended you guys to put on alberich set, lord of blood exultation, stonebarb cracked tear, trolls roar or greyolls roar and the best staff that you can wield or staff of guilty and spam those thorns, in seconds you will break his stance use that chance to crit hit him and continue
ancient dragons lighting strike wrecks him too one charged cast in the right spot can take half his health, providing he stays still long enough for that
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 you can spam the uncharged cast pretty quickly and if you get him side on you're hitting for 4-6 strikes which still is a large amount of damage, even more if it's charged which honestly the charge isn't too bad if you wait for the right window, you can even throw out a summon to keep him occupied while you cast it or you can work it into stagger Crits, as soon as he's down use a full charge that's most likely going to hit harder than any critical strike will with all the talisman buffs you can use now to boost incantation and lighting damage
@@chrisread6292 well I'll bare that in mind for my next run of it. I already beat the dlc in full on ng+5 and going to go through the base game with the new weapons and other such stuff on ng+6 and then go back to the shadow realm. Maybe I'll give that spell a shot against him, it is a favorite of mine.
You can stagger him even harder with the perfect block sekiro potion and counter attacks from block, most of his attacks are fairly long to perfect block.
If you run to the left theres a wall. Lead him to the other side of it then stand on one side with the blood trident. The boss cant hit you and dies instantly. I beat him first try with this method😂😂
Cragblade makes your weapon deal much more poise damage when paid with charged heavy attacks, iron balls deal, arguably, the most poise damage because of how fast the charge attack comes out. And giving it the cold affinity to proc frost bite will make the enemy slower so even easier to land the hits without much worry.
You get it from an npc invasion next to a church in the area after beating Rellana. The build is shown at the end. Cold star fists. Heavy attacks. Cracked tear physic
@@issi529yeah I was struggling a lot with the ancient meteoric ore greatsword. Swapped to star fists and got it done in a few tries. Try farming scadutree fragments and come back to it
![[Elden Ring] Let me solo them](/img/n.gif)
This boss made me want to throw my controller through the wall ngl
@@Jednauman yeah he can be rough
I broke mine 😂😂😂
@@mohammednadeem2354 just wait until you get to the promised consort 💀
Use a great rune if you are struggling
And use negation talismans
The hit boxes on this boss are bs
Why is it when they have a literal pubic hair of life left, they become so aggro? Well done sir.
😭😭
Because when one is dying, one must give it their all
They always wanna act up when they have like 1hp left lol, great vid btw
Commander gayass down 🔥
Sounds kinda..... Shitty 😂😂😂

Can’t every boss be staggered?

The ancient dragons except Placidusax cannot be staggered
I enjoy seeing this boss get whipped, lord knows he whipped my ass many times before I finally beat him!
All those heal whiffs near the end lol. I bet your heart was pounding out of your chest.

0:57 Peak hitbox right there.
I did something similar with a greatshield and guard counters, looks like this boss is fairly easy to stagger. Good stuff 👍

Big thanks for showing the build at the end
I used the Mimic Tear with Pest Thread Spears and Knight’s Lightning Spear on 70 Faith build to beat this guy.
I used the thorns build with my mimic tear and hid behind the corner so he couldn't touch me.
I died so many times that I was tired of his shit.
Tank and spank!
This is the first time I’m seeing this boss get staggered 😂

Why do the back legs even have tracking? Why the hell does every thing in this game have to have insane tracking?
First things first what the fuck is that dodge doing no damage the first time lmfao 💀
ancient dragons lighting strike wrecks him too one charged cast in the right spot can take half his health, providing he stays still long enough for that
Hmm.. I never thought to use that given how we legit can't move and have to charge it. Whatever works, works. ggs

For me piercing fang on a great katana is what made this boss fight easier.

I'm on ng+6. I wish it was this easy.
Exactly. Kills my level 400 in 1 hit.
Not sure why I see people taking multiple hits from him.
@@youraveryhandsomewoman5835 I ended up cheesing him through a wall
Thank you a lot. Beat it at third try with this build. Easy and satisfying way to beat this broken boss.
@@NonServiam_GR gg!
Badass!!
The silly is dodging into the rhino. Like for a second, the enemy has no mass etc.
If you run to the left theres a wall. Lead him to the other side of it then stand on one side with the blood trident. The boss cant hit you and dies instantly. I beat him first try with this method😂😂
Very Helpful Gonna try tomorrow.
Lil safer version is guard counters from the sides. I got 2 stance breaks in my 1st winning run.
Envoy great horn did about 6.2k damage a toot for me. He’s also very easy to hit since you can bait him into dashes for free toots
Deflecting wrecks him and you can deflect his boar charge
Not even using the skill for the fists? Just a heavy hit?
I buff at the start with cragblade, then yes just charged heavy attacks
Cragblade makes your weapon deal much more poise damage when paid with charged heavy attacks, iron balls deal, arguably, the most poise damage because of how fast the charge attack comes out.

what was in ur flask?
@@phantomsandwich3007 I think it was cracked tear for easy stagger and defence tear. Both dropped from avatar in dragon barrow
Why he's not even doing half the dmg he does to me 💀
@@infernoop609 I’m wearing the heaviest armour and would’ve had scadutree blessing like 13 (I think)
Big tip . Fuck everything else .just get heavy armor and your good
HEAVY.
How did you get that armor and what is your build
You get it from an npc invasion next to a church in the area after beating Rellana.
The build is shown at the end. Cold star fists. Heavy attacks. Cracked tear physic
@@mass976I am experienced soul gamer and i can say that he is the hardest boss i have ever faced. I gave up today😂. Such a bs boss.
@@issi529yeah I was struggling a lot with the ancient meteoric ore greatsword. Swapped to star fists and got it done in a few tries.
Try farming scadutree fragments and come back to it
What buffs were in your flask?
@@imwayne4159 it was the stone barbed cracked tear and spiked cracked tear
Nice
That's so impressive! 🤩👏🤬
what a joke ez boss to rival pinwheel
