  • Don’t use the tools then. On my mage I specifically don’t use Comet or Mimic Tear because I think they are too strong. From software didn’t remove any tools from the game that let’s you make it challenging.

    All the other games had OP shit too. DS1 had BKH and Chaos zweihander. So easy to get super strong wepons. DS2 had some crazy dark magic BS. DS3 also had crazy dark magic BS with greater soul dredge. I killed nameless king with like 5 casts in NG+.

    They didn’t sacrifice anything in Elden Ring, they made a great series more available to everyone.


  • Not to start a war about hardest boss and haven’t beaten DLC yet but Elden Ring has what alot of people would say is the hardest boss in the franchise. Like Elden Ring did open things up to more people with the open world making it easier to go around or bypass walls, but it isn’t easier.

    Like there isn’t a single boss in DS1 or 2 that comes anywhere close to fighting Melania. IMO Bloodborne and DS3 have contenders but if you are 100%ing the game Elden Ring is just as hard as any other souls game. Although the horse and teleporting does make some of the zones easier to explore, there are still difficult dungeons.

    I think alot of people remember DS1 being much harder because we were also learning the system, how it plays, how to win.


  • If you would like tips I beat him with parries. Basically all his attacks other than his special wind slash and follow up can be parried. I Basically never used parry before and found he was a good enemy to practice until I was consistent.

    If he wips out the crossbow stay at range and run to a side when he fires. Don’t need to roll and don’t want to close the distance until he is done.

    I have seen other people use big wepons to pancake or stunlock him too.













  • Insurance is pure capitalism, using all their data and statistics to streamline care and minimize costs (for them, not for us). Sometimes it does work for the people’s benefit, but most of the time it doesnt. For example, I have been told it is in insurance companies best interests to cover contraception to avoid having to pay the much higher costs of pregnancy later. Which is a positive.

    They could have found that the x-ray identifies hairline fracture or something else that is misidentified as a tear. Or they are just shitty ¯_/(ツ)_/¯
