      The second phase is more dangerous for the player. And an axe is better against others. That's why he's changing the style of battle. The dlc added claws with very similar movements to Godfrey's fighting style in the second phase and they are just the best against small enemies.

    Another stupendous video! At 0:45 I like to imagine that Godrick's story continues after the previous upgrade video. Having lost most of his powers, he follows the player to the Shadow realm after the player has defeated most of the bosses. From there, he grafts parts of the new bosses into himself and acquires new abilities- Dancing lion's elemental abilities, Rellana's magical skills, Bayle's fire lightning, Messmer's snake flames, etc.
    P.S Gideon never disappoints :)

    Bayle has by FAR been my favourite fight in SOTE thus far, so it's awesome to see him going toe-to-toe against everyone and showcasing that moveset more openly. I love how against the Dragonkin Soldier of Nokstella & Mohg, you can really get a sense of how Bayle is a dragon who practices Dragon Communion by feeding on his own kind, and you can start to see the same sorts of monstrous human qualities reflected in his draconic nature that makes his design really stand out from all of the other types of Dragons & Wyrms in Elden Ring. Especially against Placidusax (who he lost to, but which physically ravaged them both in both lore AND this perfect showcase of a battle that was like that), you can see how that pain and outrage is starting to take his Crimson Lightning and twist that huw to resemble something more akin to the burning hatred of the Frenzied Flame.

      Elden Ring players calling a stalemate a loss for the second time.
      Granted I get why with Malenia and Radahn, but here we have no shady ultra special attack granted by some Goddess. It was an equal bout with mutual injuries.

    • @PierceArner
      @PierceArner 5 місяців тому +9

      @@shyguyrocks1 On the Talisman of the Dread, _“whose challenge to the ancient Dragonlord ended in grievous mutual injury.”_ - Bayle challenged the Dragonlord, and though the battle ends in mutual injury, he didn't gain the title of Lord and was confined in exile to the Realm of Shadow with all of the other defeated, so *_he objectively lost._*
      Radahn & Malenia were both vying for the title of Elden Lord during The Shattering, and their conflict was described as, _“a battle without victor.”_ and Malenia has, _“never known defeat.”_ so theirs was ACTUALLY a stalemate, whereas Placidusax vs. Bayle was absolutely not.
      Whether Placidusax's injury and keeping his title as Dragonlord was ultimately a pyrrhic victory for him is worth exploring, but one of the Ancient Dragons literally sacrificed her body to aid in Bayle's destruction to emphasize the alignment there. The Dragon War would likely have resulted in a significantly different developments depending on when the conflict occurred, as would the Dragons' extant relationships with humans (Vyke & Lansseax as well as Godwyn & Fortissax) via the Dragon Cult holding power. Whereas the practice of Dragon Communion which Bayle himself engages in is considered taboo.
      Any way you slice it, Bayle lost and it's meaningfully impactful that he did.
