  • Elden Ring - Where to Find Dragonlord Placidusax Location (Secret Boss Fight)
    Dragonlord Placidusax is a secret optional boss in Elden Ring. It can be found in the Crumbling Farum Azula, which is a main story area in the game. The closest bonfire to Dragonlord Placidusax is at the "Besides the Great Ridge" which is just before the Black Blade boss fight.
    Dragonlord Placidusax is a tough fight but arguably one of the best dragon boss fights in video game history.

    It's really crazy how they have a completely unique grandiose dragon boss in some cryptic area where you have to go to observe the edge of a cliff and find some platforms to hop down to, and see the prompt to lie down in a specific spot so you're taken to the arena. Most games nowadays have such an underwhelming number of enemy types and bosses, meanwhile fromsoft hides several of their unique bosses like this. There really is no developer like them.

      if I game forces you to rely on wiki/youtube it's just badly designed. For example when you had to get 1 part of the medallion from some dude hidden in shitty village in a vase, wtf. It's some zelda 2 on NES level of bullshit when you had to crouch in a specific spot for 10-15 seconds and then some eagle came to transport you.

    fun fact about this boss:
    if you die at the exact moment you also kill the boss. you will get credit for killing the boss, gain the remembrance, BUT... you wont be able to get the grace in the boss arena and you will be locked out of ever going to the arena again; leaving your almost 300k runes behind forever. yep, just happened to me

      @I have no mouth And i must scream Elden Ring has one of the worst boss designs in all Soulsborne games. It's just above Dark Souls 2, honestly, but the boss fights in Dark Souls, Dark Souls 3, Sekiro, and Bloodborne are all better crafted and mechanically superior; way less artificial difficulty too.
      Bosses in Elden Ring were just disappointing overall. This dragon was really cool though, I also enjoyed Hoarah Loux, Margit, and Mohg, but that was about it, unfortunately.

    If you are trying this boss with a Strenght / Dexterity build, a very funny alternative is using Lion's Long bow, the Radahn's rain reduces that ol'b*stard in just 5 or 6 rounds.
    Just be aware with his flying dragging claw attack, is mortal XD

    Wow, what a damn great Dragon Boss. Semi-easy moveset to figure out but damn he hits so hard. He ended my 3 different summons that I tried (Mimic, Cleanrot Knight Finlay & Black Knife Tiche) fairly quickly but what finally worked for me was hitting him with Ekzykes Decay 3x and then Mimic hit him another 2x as well. I then followed with Comet Azur which got him to half health and then of course Mimic died leaving me all alone to Dodge for my life. Finally I finished up with with Ancient Death Rancor. Took 3 or 4 times but totally a great battle. Great video, It really helped!
