  • If you’re struggling to understand how to beat Godrick The Grafted, this Elden Ring boss guide will highlight a few strategies and the location of an NPC companion you can call to make the Stormveil Castle boss fight much more manageable.
    Godrick The Grafted is the ruler of Stormveil Castle, the first legacy dungeon in Elden Ring. This mandatory boss is a demi-god whose body is clad by extremities taken from his previous victims. Godrick is incredibly agile despite his large size, capable of using his storm-calling abilities to launch into the air or whirl massive gusts of wind. During his second phase, the disgraced lord grafts a dragon head onto his arm, spewing streams of deadly fire. Godrick is a nasty foe, but the good news is he’s easier to beat than Margit The Fell Omen.

    One tip - when he goes into his 2nd phase, he obviously severs his arm. You'll see him stop moving before he does this. You can attack him throughout this animation, and even before the animation proper start up. You get about 5 seconds to deal as much damage as you can, virtually risk-free. On my build I was able to take off about 15% - 20% of his total health, just in this section.
    The only caveat is that you need to stand behind him when you do this, as otherwise the attack he uses to sever his arm will hit you too.

      Yup when he's spraying fire have wild strikes ash of war on any sword preferably a great sword. Roll under hims drain arm he's spraying with and lay waste. Also if u can hold ash summons. The skeletons. Great distraction. They don't die unless he hits a gem after they fall in battle. Usually hecwljs away and they resurrect..... Just a coupke tips that help me... Only sword not to put wild strikes on in early game is uchigatana.... It's WA us awesome

    Here are my solo tips:
    When he does his leap attack literally just walk towards him and he'll completely miss, you can begin a charge attack just before he lands.
    When he does the slams, JUMP! And land with a jumping attack for extra stagger points
    When his second phase begins and he spews fire, you can run to his right to get like 3 hits in.
    Hope that helps!!

    I am hyped to get to this fight. I am having so much fun with this game that I don't mind exploring for awhile, leveling up, getting summons, etc. It doesn't feel like a grind to me like so many other games. The setting in this game is just so much fun to explore, it's basically a fantasy post apocalypse that is terrifying and beautiful.

    For his stormcalker attack stay just out of range of his attack and he'll almost always do the rolling attack, when he does this move toward whatever direction he rolls and then when he jumps push forward right and he'll almost always miss giving you free hits.
    This also works the exact same in his second phase.

    Finally managed to beat this pain in the a** after over 10 or so tries. Found h exponentially more difficult than Margit. The trick was the Blood Hound summon or whatever it's name is, at the start summon it and melee Godrick as much as you can to allow the summon to get hits I also used some weapon that applied the Scarlett rot but I don't know how much that contributed. Once he finally gets the debuff he loses health throughout the whole battle, somehow the summoner helper dude survived the whole battle too.

    @CharlieTooHuman 2 роки тому +6

    I’d say when he does the whirlwind attack, DON’T stray TOO far away from him. Once he completes his last whirlwind, MOVE IN, this will cause the next part of the attack to be a roll -leap and ground slam instead of those difficult-to-dodge high dmg gusts about 90% of the time… The roll, leap and ground slam (refer to 2:33) can be EASILY dodged if you move in and dodge forward after he leaps, it will also give you a couple seconds to attack him from behind when the attack animation is finished. What you DON’T want to do is move backward like in the video.

    I did this at level 20 strength build with default health and stamina. I did summon the jelly fish to pull agro on the second phase, but if you just learn the attack patterns, its not too bad. Theres alot of sweeping attacks and the shock wave attacks that you can jump over and retaliate with a jumping attack, and if your using a strength weapon this will also contribute to breaking his poise, and you'll be able to do a visceral attack for massive damage. It's not too bad. It did take me like 20 tries but it was doable. Fun fight tbh.

    • @austin5259
      @austin5259 2 роки тому +1

      For his stormcalker attack stay just out of range of his attack and he'll almost always do the rolling attack, when he does this move toward whatever direction he rolls and then when he jumps push forward right and he'll almost always miss giving you free hits.
      This also works the exact same in his second phase.
      Also in his second phase get behind him as quickly as you can especially on his forward flame attack as that will melt your hp if he gets you with it.

    It took me literally 2 hours of attempts to beat this guy. I killed margit almost immediately while this guy was the real deal. After 1.5 hour, I decided that my attention span had enough, I went left from the secluded cell, reached Nepheli - it was a real game changer. I switched from wolves to that strange medusa (because it got too crowded) and swiped Godrick's ass. What's more, I thought that the initial map you're shown (including fog of war) was the whole map. I thought to myself "Is THIS what they call a massive map on the Internet?" Then I discovered a stella to the north of Stormveil Castle and changed my mind... It will take a while to clear this game. TBH, I've never been a fan of From Software, but the formula in Elden Ring is just perfect.

If you try rolling away from his swings his mechanic will allow him to spam his what I call his hurricane spinny attack and one shot your booty after breaking your stance. If you manage to get him to stage 2, you can avoid his fire breath attack by rolling to the side over the flames. Hes also weak to blood and poison damage.
