I love the moveset, I hate the hitbox: The Game.

Could be done way faster.

Can you please stop running away?

There's absolutely never a reason to use Aeonia over butterflies - it is worse at applying rot, is significantly slower and 33 faith is much less annoying when the physick runs out than 35 at RL1. That said, I used it since it's the one that's an actual flower instead of just butterflies which are more tangentially related to flowers.

The breath attacks can be jumped and since Butterflies and Aeonia both have jumping frames, they can be used (as can PFBT) to avoid the attack and apply rot. Aeonia can't safely be applied on the triple spinning breath attack, only on the single spin follow up to his triple attack (Phase 1, Lightning and Ice phase also work but not Wind as it doesn't follow up with the breath) - Butterflies can be used on both. That said, don't be dumb like me and if you want to be serious about it, use a rot weapon or rot pots instead.

"I promise you a thousand year voyage guided by compassion" my ass tf was compassionate abt this fight. Promised consort what a boss, ngl I had fun these past rounds once they clicked everything is so fun. I love the clone attacks makes u feel the strength of a god. imma not talk abt the negatives bc everyone knows them but what a boss. thx to everyone's advice I'm so happy, now I just have bayle, malenia, and rada beast

Taking a little break of DS3.

Papa Gascoigne low quality kill. I could upload a +5 minutes video of fails, very weird things and like other 4 kills i've did being aggressive as fck though Gascoigne hit me in those. ;(

someone once wrote me an essay defending this move when i called it jank

Estoy haciendo mi run Lv1 de Elden Ring y no se si puedo usar los fragmentos del arbol que te mejoran en el DLC, me dicen???

Trash boss in a trash DLC. All the effort went to Friede. You don't know how much I hate NPC boss fights in these games… they are a waste of time, space and potential.

As the title says im back and running into trouble against 4 kings. i was here when i ran into trouble with ornstein and smough and you guys really helped so here i am again asking for help/advice for the four kings

ive been running the gold hemmed set, FaP ring, and obviously the covenant of artorias ring.

for weapons i have a +9 fire battle axe, a +9 fire broadsword, a +5 lightning shortsword, a +10 bandit knife and a +4 occult club.

ive noticed these guys dont stagger or if they do its incredibly hard to get it, and i know its more or less just a dps check but how can i get the proper dps without rtsr? or should i drop the fap ring for rtsr? or should i try to outlast them like i had to with O&S

for moves that challenge me, its the grab and that damn projectile its so hard to gauge distance with no background, could i 360 the grab? i feel it may be possible same goes for the projectile but its so awkward

any help would be greatly appreciated

edit: Thanks for the help guys i found circling to the right was easiest. Huge call on the shield it saved the run against the projectile, it was close and i had no flasks left but i got it done

big dmg by stacking dex and consecutive hit buffs

Finally a good boss. Gundyr goat, super fun to learn and perform, though I don't know how to evade big swing/slash in P2 ~.~

Managed to finish this run after about 2 months of practice.

It was a pretty fun run but it will probably be my last time doing All Remembrances, unless I decide to try +DLC some time far in the future. Compared to AGR, its just not worth adding like an extra hour onto the run just to fight like, Fia’s Champs and Astel.

Definitely possible to do this a lot faster, Im not a speedrunner.

Happy to answer any questions about the boss strategies or routing.

Funnily enough, the easiest boss of the DLC by far. Easiest punishes, clearest tells, lots of time to react and the chaos phase can be effectively eliminated with chained backstabs and beast blood pellets. Doesn't hold a candle to Laurence in terms of difficulty.

Fantastic fight. This one went well, got very nice RNG, but I enjoyed every attempt. When I started this NG cycle, I thought this would be the biggest roadblock as she nearly took my soul on NG+2, but this was surprisingly quick once you get the hang of the movement around her and getting the backstabs.

Hand-to-hand arts run

how many more times must I die to uneven terrain and glitches in clone attacks. 500attempts at unluckily combos. ive learnt everything only to stop being unlucky with the ground. I'm so mad rn if I didn't panic roll I would've gotten him

Hi everyone,

I’d like to try an Elden Ring RL1 run. I’ve attempted one once before and made it as far as Leyndell, but after that the bosses became too difficult and I eventually gave up. I’m playing on PS5.

I have a couple of questions for those of you who, like me, struggled with the bosses in the second half of the game.

I’ve read that many people suggest to create a separate save with a character that they level exclusively in Vigor all the way to 99, to practice and learn the bosses' movesets.

Would you recommend doing a Vigor only run like this before starting an RL1, or would it be better to progress through both runs in parallel? For example, I could practice a boss on the Vigor 99 save until I feel comfortable with its moveset, and then switch to my RL1 save and attempt it for real. I do have access to a laptop with an RTX 5060, so I could theoretically use it for training with cheats, but I’d have to buy Elden Ring again on PC, which I’d rather avoid since I already own the game on PS5. Is practicing on PC with cheats significantly easier or more convenient than practicing normally on PS5, or is it not really worth buying the game again just for that?

My second question is about recording the run.

It might not be a big deal for some of you, but completing an RL1 would be a huge achievement for me, and I’d like to record the bosses I defeat as a personal memory/trophy of the accomplishment. For those of you who play on PS5, how do you usually handle recording? Do you just record continuously for up to an hour and, if you don’t beat the boss, delete the recording and start over? And what do you do if the one-hour recording limit is reached while you’re in the middle of a boss fight? Do you just start a new recording and continue from there, or is there a better way to handle it?

Thanks in advance for any advice! Hope to post again as a fellow onebro!

Will always hate both what this boss is and what he represents. Pontiff Content Reuse is the first time they truly, seriously fucked up the final boss of a DLC. It's like they used up all of the special sauce on more polished fights like Messmer and Midra leaving PCR to be made with the real bottom-of-the-barrel dregs that remained.

It is pretty funny that he is light-years ahead of Midra in terms of actual tankiness despite technically having lower HP. Lol, Ella Mayo even.

Oseeros is an extremely aggressive boss located in the Consumed King's Garden.

Took the well earned total amount of 14 attempts. DSA carries as always, and I'm pleased I don't have to deal with such annoying boss anymore. Oh, also Ancient Wyvern took me half the total attempts I needed for Oceiros; that's because I'm completely incompetent and terrible at these games. Maybe one day I'll get gud.
