So this is a Dark Souls boss in 2022...

pretty much, the enemy design is shockingly different from say ds2 where people were getting filtered by easy ass slow shit like pursuer or smelter demon
Jump over the third hit of the two handed combo that he does after the stomp, fall with an R2.
Parry.
Guard counter after only blocking the final hit of a string.
Create your own openings.
Holy mother of cope
Almost all of this is wrong.
Git gud, please.
This guy has a lot of openings, for example when he swings his tail or when he does the 4 attack of his combo or when he does the shield attack...
I killed him with a hammer, also I think he's parriable.
I beat him with a +15 Mace and Towershield. Just be patient.
he's cheesable once you realize you can sprint out of his stab range and at this point he'll start walking or doing that easily dodgeable flying rush in phase 2
just stay locked but run in the opposite direction, heal, go back and trade a few hits, rinse repeat
thanks Sekiro and Owl for the strategy
What a meme fight
Parrying only works against 2 of his attacks so learning all that shit is just harder than just learning to dodge his shit
Also, 2100 souls lmao
so you tried to fight crucible knights without putting points in vigor or finding any good gear, what do you expect you fucking noodle, to win?
Lvl 43, 20 points in vigor, turtle shield that was useless, beat him by 2-handing and dodging
Shit fight is a shit fight
>Wait for him to come to you
>Roll forward to the side with the shield
>Hit him in the back twice or once if you fell for the greatsword meme
>Roll back when he turns around and back away
>Repeat
"This is so hard, please give me easy mode"
Git gud you retard
I beat him as third boss, before Margrit
Get gud and press L2
There's a few ash of war arts that go through enemy guards.
Are you my Mimic Tear? Literally same
>go back to DS1/DS2
>im almost falling asleep with how easy everything is
>even Manus is downright trivial
Its hard to believe these games ever gave us difficulty.
Nope.
You can parry at least 4 of his attacks. Probably more. Those were jsut the ones I attempted.
His side swipe, the second side swipe, his dashing attack and the attack where he drags his blade on the floor.
But regardless, it was enough for me to parry him to death. I just sat there and baited out his sword attacks and dodge jump heavied his shield bash and 2 handed stomp combo when he did them.
A lot of the difficulty is based on memorization, so it's easier for us now.
what did you expect? It will be the same with elden you know?
Just parry him you fucking scrub.
youtube.com
it's literally a a trash mob
there's over a dozen of those in the game lmao
Endless whining from shitters.
It's trash all right, just like all the bosses in Elden Ring
my +3 zwei was doing like 170dmg per parry so yeah that takes a fuckin while
It literally took that guy 2 minutes.....
>spams Rock Sling in your path
Nothin personnel...
Killed this guy at level 22 by just learning his parry timing. took about 15 deaths but I killed him.
Actually just GIT GUD OP.
Making bosses artificially difficult by stupid shit like meme delays, windups and endless combos is not a good thing. DeS and DS1 had way better bosses, if you want difficulty play fucking Ninja Gaiden on Master Ninja
Cock sling is amazing, carried me all the way until getting mlgs and now I barely use it
The only things you can't parry are his shield slam, his dive attack, and his tail and his charged 2 handed slam.
All his other attacks are parryable.
great comeback scrub
come back when you git gud
nigga just press l2
just parry his ass lmao
Wait till you find out you fight two of those at once.
I went back to platinum all 3 Dark Souls before Elden Ring released and basically the entire time I was listening to podcasts and shit because I found it quite easy.
nah hes the most retarded version out of all of them. the others are doable as you meet them
Parry is easy mode for absolute plebs, your entire run is now invalid.
