Once you have fought midir like 5+ times he becomes really predictable with his attacks all you need to do is stay up close to him and only attack his head cause its double DMG and don't lock on to him cause the camera can mess you up
I can’t stand being a phantom trying to help some useless moron who tries to whack away at midir’s foot while tanking every single firebreath until he runs out of estus, panics and dies to some incredibly predictable swipe attack. I was summoned by the same dumbass like 7 times and each time he played worse and worse following this brilliant tactic. Worst part was I could do shit because every time I got up to midir’s face, he would agro on the host and turn around. While I had to make my way from midir’s ass back to his head, the host was running in the opposite direction, taking midir’s agro with him. What a god damn clown show.
Yeah, just stand close to his head while he flails around like a madman, runs everywhere and spews flame - if there was a way to trick him into always using the two hit combo it would be easy but he is too random with his choice of attack
Get +10 sharp sellsword twinblades then use sacred oath and deep protection before going in use lighting blade on the sellsword blades hop down aim for the head two hand the blades then spam L1 on him. Use hunters ring, pontiff right eye or sun's first born ring then FaP +3 and chlorathy ring +3
Easy is using havels to tank every hit from a boss (eg Gael/nameless king) in a reliable strategy - I've never once seen a midir method that doesn't involve extremely well timed rolling for the entire fight.
As a DS casual my winning strategy was using the Dragon Crest Shield + Black Knight Greataxe +5. Block most of the fire attacks, hit once or twice in the head, retreat. Physical attacks can be dodged more easily. Also block when he makes the mad rush. I'm only SL 130 with a measly 25 invested in endurance, so anyone can do it. Took maybe 20-30 tries in total.
@@mikansan8216 130 by NG Midir sounds reasonable, I generally hit 120 in NG by Yhorm or so and cap it there for MP. Unless you're constantly dying and losing souls or speed running taking until NG+ to hit 130 seems weird.
I just beat him last week with the same "keep hitting his head" strategy. The difference with this video is that I did it with a Dex build with Sharp Sellsword Twinblades +10 and Pontiff's Right Eye to spam L1 as much as I can and get bonus damage and also Flame Stoneplate Ring for fire defense.
@@absolstoryoffiction6615 I used claymore+10 for most of my runs but switched to sellsword. Some may say that's cheap but it was still satisfying and difficult.
killing this guy at low level to get a frayed at MY lowest possible level for pvp was so hard for me.. think i was between sl 55 and 60 and some people fucking do this at sl 1..
I was dreading this fight mainly because I thought it would be like nameless king where the camera is destroying your will to live but i actually got this boss 2nd try with sharp lothric knight sword
This guy's camera is way worse then nameless because there is a trick to controlling nameless camera problems - lock onto NK, let him do an attack and then quickly switch to the dragon and get your hits in. It's really reliable and works every time, but midir doesn't have a rider so is much more unpredictable.
Not a single laser. Ok... I never had a try without at least 2-3 P1 and one P2. Used Dragon Shield, Uchi with lightning buff and Ringed Knight Armor. One of the coolest fights of all times imho. :) Was even kinda sad when I killed him. ;)
Some say sister friede and her dad harder than my dude midir....... No this mf dragon the hardest most nerve testing thing in the whole world. Worse than orphan of kos!
this boss fight in no way is easy and what is this video about is it a how to kill easy or just a flex video that u spent so many hours in learning his movement just to post it on youtube
aw man it seems like it's a DLC after another DLC after a pretty long game in which you go through to get to the second to last boss of the FINAL DLC of the game and franchise but hey I think it's just me
To be fair, fighting Midir alone, face to face, feels like a bug fighting a majestic titan. It's actually much better than if there was a raid of a hundred bugs
Dude I just watched your video and I was like hmm I've given one try at midir and solo first try midir thank you so much bro your the best ever btw I beat him on new game + 10
As someone who beated this boss in just two tries , my strategy was very similar to yours except for a couple of attacks that I dealt with them differently
I don't get how nameless oe Gael are worse then this guy - both can be easily dispatched with a sword and shied as it can block 90% of their attacks whereas midir frequently ignores shields
@@MrDaChekar nameless does hit you with an absolute barrage of attacks at very high speed, that's for sure, but the Dragonslayer greatshield at +5 actually has enough stability and lightning resistance to tank absolutely everything he throws at you and you just have to wait and take a single poke every now and then when he finally gives an opening - I can't find any way to shield myself from midir so he is nearly impossible as that is my core strategy when playing dark souls and rolling through everything is just not an option.
Nameless king is the biggest fraud in gaming despatcg dragon with 4 swings of my fugs and then reposte immediately switch to bow and ping him in the face whilst he walks around doing absolutely nothing
Hardest part of Midir fight is all the help he gets from the camera.
camera is the main boss of this game jesus fucking christ
@@Somulo ajajajajajajaja yeah same here
Lock off. I always lock off for midir.
This fight as actually a gank with Midir and the camera having a shared health bar
@@ethanred338 yea Ik I got to the point to just never lock on otherwise youll always end up under him where u can’t hit his head

People who say head does double damage when it reality body does half damage because the face is how you actually fight midir
5+ times, stop at that
I disagree with no lock on. As long as you stay in front of him lock on can be fine.

Killed him yesterday in 14 attempts was quite proud of myself. The soundtrack is phenomenal
Very lucky Midir didn't use his dark laser at all....but still it was a good fight
I definetly agree with Brian Miller below: Easy looks different to me. He hits you alot.
But still good job! You got him.

that is good

Good luck lol

the real easy kill tips for Midir: Pestilent Mist
Does it still work crazy good
@@nickmoore717 I believe it still does. You need to stay close to him after the cast so he does not move out of the spell to inflict maximum damage.

i did it on ng+5😭😭
Pestilant mist gang:)
He can 1 shot you on NG+6 if your vigor ain't 50 or higher
I beat him 7th on ng+4, but that was after i respecced to 40 vigor after losing to him the 5th time
First time I killed Midir was when the DLC came out, on a NG++ character
Never again
The Fume sword is disappointing. Always outperformed by a heavy Greatsword.
It was WAY better in DS2. Had all kinds of cool combos and the L2 was much better - in DS3 it's just way too slow.
😂😂😂 this is so dumb are you serious
@@biddlybongwong ???
The damage is always better on the heavy greatsword, but the fume weighs more.
I dont see a easy kill here. This is hard studieing of complete move set.
LOL. This doesn’t look easy at all.
Kids, don’t lock on and invest in the Wolf knight great-sword.
No buffs necessary.
Since you use the same blade as mine, that video inspired me, i've just killed midir
i was expecting a one hit big damage "easy", but good job
FUGS just absolutely destroys most of the bosses!
Looks more like a monster hunter fight lmao

Facts
This boss and the Dancer destroyed me. Cool video. Wish you could help me.
@@ghostk117 Awesome. Thanks for the advice
Ngl I use Dorhys Gnawing on the dancer for a pretty easy win.

Lucky he decided never to laser you. With that much bulk I don't think you could avoid getting juggled to death.
I beat him after watching your video thank you dude wild ass fight
My friend and I did a playthru with havel Armour and sack heads. We were the sack bros
Expectation of the Boss: Midir
Reality: the camera is the boss
Midir is honestly easy once you learn his move set
99 strenght
99 faith
99 dex
Some say sister friede and her dad harder than my dude midir.......
No this mf dragon the hardest most nerve testing thing in the whole world. Worse than orphan of kos!
Not the best run tbh. You could roll through his sweeping fire attack for free hits.
Instead of wearing the full set you put on that Pointed garbage..
Laughable.
My midir is basically a cyclops, it fvcking laser beams me to death. Im on my 8th try
tank + ultra great sword + billion health + u can roll far = Easy win
this boss fight in no way is easy and what is this video about is it a how to kill easy or just a flex video that u spent so many hours in learning his movement just to post it on youtube
honestly didnt find him hard, he took me 10 tries, gael took me 3 sister friede on the other hand toook me 30+
''easy kill'' - meanwhile you have one Ember and an elevator downstairs
I literally just use the Dragonslayer Great axe, it does about the same damage as the Fume Great sword
Ur title is like u try to surf on ds3 community views
Maybe I'm just noob, but Midir is the hardest boss for me.
That was a totally normal Midir kill. Nothing special
how is this easy kill? one mistake and kablaww you dead
or you could just use the dragon slayer axe, does around about the same damage but faster and less stamina used
Easy = kill itt with a high level character played with a high level of skill? Thanks man! :)
There’s a whole game before midir if u didn’t know bout that -_-
aw man it seems like it's a DLC after another DLC after a pretty long game in which you go through to get to the second to last boss of the FINAL DLC of the game and franchise but hey I think it's just me
Record is 55 sec killed midir you almost died
Beat him bare handed ng+ a few weeks ago
How can you even carry the fume sword and the entire havel set at once
Max stamina
99 Vitality
Were it so easy
I just don't lock on the boss at all lol
I beat this boss by summoning “Let me solo him” greatest decision I ever made
If you dont strike sparks while falling to Midir you aren't playing right
Dont underestimste the dark side
now do that without rolling 😢
I wish there was an mmo with a fighting system like this... although I actually liked Dragon's Dogma even more.
To be fair, fighting Midir alone, face to face, feels like a bug fighting a majestic titan. It's actually much better than if there was a raid of a hundred bugs
I used the Exile Greatsword to fight Midir. And I was at fat rolling weight. It’s really not as crippling as people make it out to be!
Nice one. Took me 8 attempts to kill dad drako 😂
Nicee :)

how do you get that sword
How do you not fat roll with that armor im confused plz respond if u can
Havel's ring and stamina up!

What’s the build?
So if I get a level 140 character I should be able to beat him. 34, str, 99 equip load, 40 hp, 40, stamina. And I'm good to go
Dafaq u doin? running straight to midir without killing a single soul in the game?
Use pestilent mist & summon the npc. Pretty easy fight.

what a weird bat...
" *Kick* "
- MR.MaMvs' ashen one
And here I thought I was the casul around here......
blood build is the really easy kill
Midir is immune to bleed
So like, what was "easy" in this kill? It was just a normal kill, you even got some beating..
He say it easy because the easy way to beat midir is to just face him head on instead of trying to hit and run, better to hit and dodge
Did him first try earlier with Wolf Knight Greatsword +5 and 50 str. It was only NG so it melted him
FUGS does it again
Yessir!

What playthrough were you on?
Ng+ I think
No wonder, I'm ng+5 and most of his attacks 2 tap me
