@@darthplagueis13 It is yeah The ai aint built for using ranged things at all, the soldiers that use crossbows and bows actually have 2 sets of ai for this reason but normal npcs and mimic seem to be missing this 2nd ranged combat ai

@@TheSsjJokermakes sense. I've played Skyrim before and I can tell you that his genuine anger towards dragons can only have been accumulated by being the Dragonborn.
So out of all the dragons in Elden Ring, he only loses to the Dragonlord and one of the Ancient Dragons from the base game, as well as the Dragonlord and Ancient Dragon from the DLC. A true Drake Warrior after all.
@@dragondan26 Yeah. That's a probability thing at the end of the day. He might win 5 out of 10 fights and lose the other 5 due to standing in the Deathblight at some point.
I guess this finally explains why it seemed like Igon's contribution felt super inconsistent during my Bayle attempts. It all depends on whether his AI decides to actually shoot his bow or just stare down the dragon.
Yeah during half my bayle runs he was useless but in my last run, he came in clutch after i screwed up timing and blew through 6 of my heals within about a minute. He ended up doing almost a third of bayle's health and got the last hit in right after he divebombed igon and igon managed to dodge by the hair of his teeth. twas an awesome thing and very fitting with that final dialogue.
I was like "obiously Gideo and Igon will fight each other one day" But Gideon to come to HELP was a suprise Now Bayle shall haunt no longer Igon with Gideon's HELP
That ending was one of the most unexpected and incredible fights I’ve seen. Gideon coming in to assist Igon and immediately screaming “I NEED HELP” while Bayle charged him was hilarious lmao
@@BjornTheBear Since when have you cared about Sir Gideon? You keep throwing him into the meat grinder While giving the soldier of Godric Omnipotent status despite the fact he's categorically weaker than Gideon.

And yea, that Bonus Bayle round was just comedy gold after noticing the twist.
13:40 Unfathomably rare Fortissax W Also, probably the most fun DLC/base game crossover event yet! Most of the bosses in the DLC are way overtuned to battle anything bar Malenia or Maliketh, but Igon going up against all the dragons is just enough to be exciting :)
@@executioner_ecgbert884Maldron and Jester Thomas really popped off in the DLC’s. I feel like they both had a ton of personality without ever speaking a word.
he is as dumb as a stone he is full of moments in which he remains perfectly still ignoring everything that is happening around him, it was quite foreseeable that by chance a cloud of deathblight would arrive on his head and he wouldn't even think about staying still inside it otherwise he would surely have defeated the dragon
Did anybody else notice that when Placidusax was doing his Lazer attack, Igon just stood there staring at him confused as hell? It looked like he was watching him make his sandwich at a Subway before immediately getting shot backwards 10 feet.
Igon's ai seemed to have trouble at several points yep, definitely had moments of "...Bow? Bow. ....Bow...? Bow--" "CURSE YOU DRAGON--" and he resets to normal.
I've noticed that the AI used for human sized NPCs aren't working all the great and this video highlights it. Numerous times in this video, Igon just stood there without moving. This has happened with many of my summons in the game too. They have an obvious target, but don't go for an attack or sometimes bring out their weapon, then just put it back away.
saw it most in this video since Igon has that great bow he could be using at a longer distance and instead at the same bow effective distance decides to use a melee dragon incant instead.. =(
@@BjornTheBear I think it's at its worst with Gideon Ofnir and Igon so far. Gideon seems to forget he can dodge and Igon seems to forget he's fighting at all. Imagine what Gideon would be capable of if he actually used his roll.

Puppet summons +10 vs main game bosses and DLC bosses. Base game npcs vs DLC npcs. Can the DLC bosses survive the lvl 713 starter class gank lol (no scadutree blessings). DLC bosses vs Ranni's faction. Iji, Blaidd (strongest variation), and add Seluvis as well with some Carian spells (like the ones Preceptor Miriam has) and Moongrum (because Renalla would definitely send him to back Ranni up lol) Can the DLC survive the assassins? Alecto and all her assassims vs DLC bosses (add Baleful shadow to back them up)
In 3:36: geez that was good sync In Theodorix fight, it was at some point personnal. I mean Igon screaming with his dragon "CUUUUURSE YOUUUUUUU VILE DRAGON !!!!"
No matter how many times I died to Bayle, Igon’s lines didn’t make me want to smash my controller lmao. Probably the most fun fight so far in my playthrough.
My man knows no fear, just standing there motionless, tanking some of the heaviest hittinf dragon attacks in rhe entire franchise. "THERE IS LIFE IN ME YET!"
So you know how there’s a giant dead dragon next to the grand altar of dragon communion? Would it be possible to do what you did with Greyoll and Great Jar and then have it fight the dlc bosses? It could even have some of the new attacks the doc drakes have like the lightning roar and melee combos.
For how wonky his AI is, Igon won a large number of close bouts. Also, what an upset to go from being no-hit by Bayle, to crushing him alongside Gideon. I guess he really does need a second drake warrior to face him.
The Fortisax fight was insanely cool. It felt like Fortisax realused he was losing badly and went all out, forming lightning into weapons, summoning death blight, flying

Fun fact: igon is simply bayle given voice but he is actually talking about placidusax
They are definitely different sides of the same coin
That end was full of emotion from Igon, but Gideon screaming "HELP!" for every lightning bolt hitting him was too much for me to take 🤣
😂😂😂
It's not Gideon... that sound clip is Vegeta from Dragonball, Bjorn just adds that to whenever Gideon gets beat up.
Yeah I wasn't much a fan of Gideon he certainly assisted me in the fight and earns the title of True Drake Warrior, but he was rather annoying
I don't know...after a number of those stop-and-stare moments, shooting the bow up close, holding a shot for no reason, or using the Dragonclaw incant at distance, I'm thinking more than Igon's legs got messed up by Bayle.
Lmaoooo
Hey Igon might just be getting senile hunting Moby Di... I mean Bayle!!!
He does say that each of his limbs lay in a bloody ruin so maybe Bayle broke (not removed) his arms
Its the dragon madness setting in, all those new spells and dragon hearts were messing with him.
Yeah I thought he seemed like an idiot.
For a lil archer fella Igon sure does get confused by his bow lol
Lmaooo he does
I wonder if just having a bow and incants but no melee weapons is a problem for the AI.
@@darthplagueis13 It is yeah
The ai aint built for using ranged things at all, the soldiers that use crossbows and bows actually have 2 sets of ai for this reason but normal npcs and mimic seem to be missing this 2nd ranged combat ai

He did lol
lore accurate battle
Looked as if Bayle hates Igon just as much as Igon hates him :o

A true Drake Warrior after all.
Indeed
And considering he shouldn't really hunt Ancient Dragons since Drake Knights only killed, well, drakes, you could say he is even better
Bayle is not the Dragonlord. In fact, he challenged Placi for the title and got beat up so hard he was sent to the shadow realm (literally)
Probably could have killed Fortissax if he didn’t stand in the instant death mist
@@dragondan26 Yeah. That's a probability thing at the end of the day. He might win 5 out of 10 fights and lose the other 5 due to standing in the Deathblight at some point.
Igon, the broest of bros. Introduces _us_ as "a true drake warrior" because he knows he can't do it alone.
True story
It is true, my revenge against Bayle would not have been possible without the Tarnished a True Drake Warrior
I guess this finally explains why it seemed like Igon's contribution felt super inconsistent during my Bayle attempts. It all depends on whether his AI decides to actually shoot his bow or just stare down the dragon.
Basically yes
It is either his PTSD kicking in and he just freezes or he finally gets his shit together 50/50
Yeah during half my bayle runs he was useless but in my last run, he came in clutch after i screwed up timing and blew through 6 of my heals within about a minute.

much like most of us first time we saw it man was in awe...or maybe just thinking "Bayle survived TWICE this?"

Fortissax really is the Glass Joe of Elden Ring boss fight montages.

-all drake hunters vs bosses
-Count Ymir and the duo of Jolan and Anna vs bosses
