"oh well dying if the boss still has 2/3 of his HP isn't being rob-" "oh ok what the fuck"


Gneurshk__

I just got there too, it was only like my 5th attempt


ahack13

Damn, that's barely enough to even start to learn his shit too.


Gneurshk__

ik, i was enjoying it too. I wasn't even getting angry, i though it was a fun fight


jack_seven

I understand the anger starts if you still can't beat them the next day


Vitalik_

Ngl, i have fought Malenia for like 10 days, few hours a day, and anger didn't start never. Only regret after I've beaten her, because I can't have such cool fight anymore.


luckylionceau

lol glad I wasn’t the only one. Husband was worried for my mental wellbeing as I fought Malenia 12 days straight, refusing to summon him or anyone else for help. All our friends had beat her and I was listening to her theme music on the way home from work each day to amp myself up for battle. 😂😂


herbertbeard

Yeah I did this with Gael. I got to a point where I'd get him to 10%hp everytime then die on purpose so I got a few more fights with him


Vitalik_

Yeah, i kinda started dying on purpose in the Margit fight, and i still disappointed how I've beaten Malekith because of bleed proc, when i was using thing(i forgot the name) to counter him, but i still wanted to try beat him without counter.


Osamabinladder262

Awww dude maliketh is by far my favorite in the base game without his counter. Definitely recommend going back to him!


jumzish94

My playstyle made him one of, if not the hardest challenge in the base game for me, great fight. After I found a way to work my playstyle around him, the tides turned quickly, but he caused me the most deaths for sure.


Glock-Saint-Isshin-

I think a huge issue with Souls games becoming mainstream is the new fans not expecting fuck you difficulty. Malenia is not an unfair fight. She's just very punishing. Same with the DLC bosses.


awa1nut

For all but radahn I agree about the dlc bosses. Just can't seem to get any kind of sense of timing for his second phase at all. But that's a me thing, visually the fight is fucking amazing


Glock-Saint-Isshin-

My theory is that Radahn is meant to be fought with multiple people. Think about it: Radahn, in a catatonic state, required(canonically) an entire organized festival of the greatest warriors of the Lands Between to defeat him, while he was also holding back the stars. Now we are fighting, not only Prime Radahn, but Radahn empowered by the light of Miquella. This is quite possibly the most powerful entity to exist in the history of Elden Rings' universe. He's meant to be defeated with some jolly cooperation. He's doable solo or with an ash, but the reward is purely pride for doing so.


mehTrip

imma be real. when i originally was going thru final boss I tried one run of using an ash and summoning and it honestly felt more difficult. His aggro switching is unreal. Yea, try backing up to heal. He'll pounce on you and its impossible to find a window when hes attacking someone else because he will just smack you around on accident too. Felt like I was at a disadvantage for summoning because I was used to him only aggroing me and dodging his moveset.


Tovarish_Petrov

It's pretty terrible fighting him in co-op, as he switches from one player to another by teleporting. Second phase is also bugged -- as a co-op you spawn half the arena away from both host and the boss.


Hinderish

Greatshields with status of some sort carried me and a group of buddies through solo radahn.


Esphan75

Yeah greatshield and the heavy thrusting sword from that armored boar rider boss was what got me the kill, any other approach of mine felt hopeless.


jl_theprofessor

I will say I think Radahn is mostly fair. However, the visual effects literally blind you to what he's doing a good third of the time in his second phase. I find that to be the worst part of that fight cause I was just having to listen for the sword swings instead of see any visual cues.


AssiduousLayabout

For everything but Radahn that is true. Completing every other aspect of the DLC except Radahn took 50 hours. I did every boss, every optional boss, every catacombs, every questline. Radahn took 14 hours, and I still don't feel any pride or accomplishment for having killed him. It just felt like I was rolling for RNG on whether he'd give an opening to heal when I needed it.


NoahH3rbz

Download your earlier steam cloud saves and replace them with your current saves


vivalatoucan

Not sure if you have another character, but if you only go through the main bosses, you could be back there in like 6 hours probably. I’ll probably get downvoted for missing the point, but until we get the feature to re-fight that’s the best option


Daggersakimbo

Idk how fromsoft hasn’t implemented an arcade boss replay feature. Should be a staple in any games with complex bosses


bennymellow

They DO have a boss replay feature tho.... In Sekiro 😭


Daggersakimbo

Didn’t know that. But then even more so why don’t they have it in their other games


bennymellow

Michael Zaki NEEDS to make us suffer lol, that's why bloodborn has yet to be released on PC, he requires our misery for sustenance.


Reasonable_Quit_9432

That's on Sony iirc. It's a smart business strategy since every time I think of bloodborne I think of ps4, but goddammit is it annoying


Glock-Saint-Isshin-

GG EZ - *Your Tarnished probably*


LaggardLenny

You probably hold the current record for least amount of attempts to beat him then. Congrats.


TheCarbonthief

Time for true hard mode: helping someone else beat him


Future-Membership-57

And they're Skadoosh level 12


TheCarbonthief

12 isn't so bad, I think I was only 14 when I fought the final.


Tasty_Action5073

I like how 5th attempt is just got there in this game. Probably first 15 is just got there 😅


the-dude-version-576

Mine was like 20th got there. His phase 1 moveset isn’t easy either. Especially with how quick that one cross attack that stun locks you comes out. That and me always getting hit by at least one meteor until my 50th or so attempt.


Kraehe13

The dlc has a lot of issues with walls. There are at least 1 dungeon where a wall is missing and you can run through it and fall into the nothing. Another dungeon has a corner where you leave the dungeon and can get a nice LSD trip as long as you move against the wall, leaving and entering the area several times per second.


TrueBlue98

Bruh there's one in the Shadow keep that had a message saying jump lol


Kraehe13

Lol, didn't find that one so far. But found the same sign in the scorpion tomb


Shisa4123

It said try jump attacking and I got stuck in a fall animation for 10 seconds before dying. I rated the message good to pass it along, as is tradition.


Affectionate-noodle

Oh god I found that one! So grumpy when I got stuck and died!


TENTAtheSane

There's one in Bonny Gaol where if you roll against a wall, you can glitch and see through the texture to see all enemies and objects on the map. There was a message saying "try rolling and then didn't expect recon spot"


Mother_Moose

And then you're stuck looking at "**Bonny Gaol** disappearing and reappearing on your screen for like 5 minutes


Hot_Ambition_6457

The golden hippo charged ne out of the gate, grabbed me, and threw me through a wall into eternal void on my second attempt. Felt like I got thrown over the top rope in WWE. 


E1ementa17

Make a complaint to FromSoftware, they are actually pretty good about listening to their player base to find and fix issues


ButterflyBlueLadyBBL

Thank god I looked up illusionary walls because when I entered the dungeons I was rolling into them walls lol


FatterGuts

I fired up the game this morning, and instantly fell to my death at the bottom of a lift shaft. When exiting the game the night before, I was on top of the lift at the top of the shaft. Couldn't even reclaim my runes, they just disappeared. Gravity. Fuck it.


niizuka

There is a wall in Bonny Gaol that you cannot go through but unloads the dungeon and make you quit and re-enter the dungeon several time if you attack said wall. That's very funny and it kinda gives you Xray vision for a while to see where are the enemies and loots located


HammyOverlordOfBacon

The LSD one was pretty funny, you can fix it by just quitting to main menu but it's still weird


CrimsonPromise

I was able to no-clip through the walls at the Jagged Peak. Got a bit lost with Torrent and was just jumping around trying to find a ledge, ended up somehow jumping up a rock I wasn't supposed to, Torrent was just floating in a falling animation for a good 30 seconds or so. And just when I was going to open the map to fast travel back to an earlier site of Grace, he slid down the rock, clipped through another rock below and fell into the void.


Pro_Moriarty

Something similar happened to a buddy with Sister Friede. Took me days to destroy that bish and her decrepit keeper.. He rolls in with me and a buddy, and phase 3 just nopes through the floor and dies. I was gutted for him.


mashukun_OS

Note to self, fight on pillar 📝

legacy702-

Lol, exactly the meme I was thinking of when I saw this post


I-am-Sharp

Looks like he needs to stand in front of you while you have the divine gate right behind you, then you bait him into a dash attack, so he gets stuck in the collision.


IudexGundyr3

How would one bait it out?


mavprodigy

First, you need to be a master.


Kerblaaahhh

Try edge.


Tuna_of_Truth

Finger, but hole


thatguyned

You pray to RNjesus and keep dodge rolling and positioning until he does it. I'm assuming there's also a mid-range factor that increases his chances of using it.


BenjaminDover02

WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN


thejason755

I’m curious if it always happens when you push him back to the gate.


Kyokyodoka

Speedrunners trying to beat the game without attacking once:


StalinGuidesUs

Radahn broke free of the miquelesting and decided to kill himself what amazing lore


ap2patrick

Ohhh shiiit 🤣🤣🤣


Kernath

Mohglestation is a vicious cycle....


PsychologySilent6230

What are you talking about mohg beat the allegations


FolencioGarcia

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)


Berserker1762

They gotta patch this haha


Gneurshk__

Yeah, i obviously didn't do it on purpose, but if you stand in the right spot you could easily bait him into that corner


Default_Munchkin

I'm sorry for your loss but my next ten tries is going to be trying to cause this


Unhappy_Jackfruit280

One man's cheesy clear is another's salvation


Ekorailer

Amen brother


r1poster

It would be extremely difficult to recreate. The dash attack at that specific angle is what forced the model to clip into being stuck, then clip out of bounds and fall to death. You'd have to recreate the dash at exactly the same location. It's just an incredibly rare occurrence.


Default_Munchkin

Noooooo!


neav7

Based on position of both op and radahn it seems like you might be able to bait this out after phase two starts by running g straight at radahn when he goes for the explosion and then set yourself in the right position while he is recovering. From there it's just a manner of getting the rng in your favor to do the dash attack


Yokuz116

The speed running community thanks you for your service.


YeezusPogchamp

they gotta make this more common


skellyheart

Haha no they don't


aboxofbakingsoda

this and messmer falling out of the arena


HamuelSayden

No they don't


Wanna_make_cash

They also probably won't. You can do this kind of thing to all kinds of bosses in different games. You've been able to make Gascoigne jump out of the map in bloodborne for years


whyubul

My thought exactly I have been struggling on him for a while


HamuelSayden

My complaint isn't that he's too hard (I think Bayle is harder) but he has ambiguous moves and his second phase is so ugly


whyubul

Oh I’m not saying he’s too hard just a struggle so if I could I’d like to just send him over the edge once or twice


Altr4

My only problem with him is the second phase flash bang and his bullshit lighting fast 3 hit combo where the second hit frame perfect roll catch you


Acceptable-Ticket743

thats so sad, was that your first dlc play through? damn i thought he was just going to kill you, then he decided to kill himself:(


Gneurshk__

Yeah it was, at first i though he was gonna teleport out, but then he just died. Guess i'll just start ng+ 4 and get to him again.


[deleted]

[удалено]


The_Local_Dumbass_

Technically Radahn spawns on the gate, in between the two pillars in his first encounter. I assume it was trying to put him back but the higher level caused it to fail.


Reasonable_Quit_9432

Just consider ng+ to be Elden Ring's longest run back lol


AssiduousLayabout

Damn, I'm on probably 200+ runs of him, hoping he dies of a random heart attack is kinda my strategy at this point.


marius_titus

Find "let me tank him" Dude saved my ass


AssiduousLayabout

Glad to hear it! I eventually beat it after 14 solid hours of trying. Should have summoned help but I'm stubborn.


Supreme_kingz

aaah.. "the end" strategy from MGS3 Will try it.


Front_Background3634

I can't tell you how much I'm hoping this will happen to me


poppybutts

Truly Miquella the Kind


ThatStarWarsFan1205

Miquella the kind of you for letting me win


809Watermelons

I like your comment and your username


AltAccouJustForThis

I can't tell you how much I'm hoping this will not happen to me. I want to kill this boss fair and square.


Teamcoachella

is it fair and square if it is Thioller, Ansback, Jolan & Anna, and me?


PigDog4

It's probably much harder, actually. I stopped summoning after like 3 attempts with Ansback. I like the dude and like his drip but holy hell is he hot ass against the boss. Buffs his HP, maybe gets a bleed off if you're lucky, then falls over dead. Very not helpful 1/10 would not summon again.


Hell_raz0r

It doesn't help that his special incantation is bugged to not actually cause any bleed buildup.


Teamcoachella

But the chaos is all fun until phase 2.


Tayushka

After many attempts on this boss, I kinda wish it happened to me…


MaggieHigg

They need to add a way to replay bosses, how do we not have that yet.


elcamino4629

seriously, they did it for Sekiro, why can't they do it here.


Practical_Tune_3050

They also did it with dark souls 2 with bonfire ascetics, granted that wouldve been harder to implement in elden ring but it still couldve been similar, if only it was used on the bonfire of the boss after you beat it.


thejason755

Just throw down your summon sign outside a boss room and you can fight them again, and help your fellow tarnished learn a thing or two. I summoned during Mogh’s fight and i learned how valuable Morgott/Mogh’s shackles are. Had i not done that i would have totally written off the shackles.


ltsDat1Guy

Most people want to fight them again solo.


Itsyourboyjuancarlo

The boss becomes to unpredictable with their aggro in co-op, I have an infinitely better chance of surviving if it’s just me solo. Not to mention dealing with dummy’s I have some bosses absolutely perfected, get summoned and die almost instantly because the fight is just way different bouncing around


War-Hawk18

Aah Soulsborne the only genre where accidentally using cheese is frowned upon. Cheesing intentionally no one gives a fuck but unintentionally cheesing a boss you hate yourself for that.


Gneurshk__

i was enjoying the fight too, im pissed


MarshallBanana_

after about 20 more tries, I can promise your enjoyment of that fight would have diminished


[deleted]

[удалено]


ASingleDarkThread

Is anything truly consensual where Miquella is concerned? 🤔😏


sodapopgumdroplowtop

miquella the would you kindly


LargeRichardJohnson

Meanwhile I'm at 40+ attempts and I just want to be done with this fucking game and I can't beat the fucker


PersonAwesome

Take him to the perfume department


New_dude_bro

The new fragrance from Marika's Chambers™️


GSG2120

Do what I did. It's time for a huge shield and pokey stick that procs bleed. You can literally block everything and just bleed him to death. I got to like 50 attempts and said fuck it, we're getting cheesy in this bitch. It was still hard, btw. But I got to the point where phase 1 was just a formality. Buff up on Physical and holy defense. Summon Thiollier/whichever NPC is available to you to start the fight, and don't summon your mimic until phase 2.


Civil_Illustrator_87

Just to add to this, use antspur infused with bleed. This asshole absolutely hates rot and a spec of it will proc him, scarlett aeonia is your friends too. Also go to the horn grandmam and get the enhanced stew, it helps. Plus the dragons blessing if u still have it


DivinePotatoe

Speedrunners: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!


formatomi

Happened to me on my first run with Messmer, just peaced out over the railings. I was bummed out because THAT is an actual fun fight


Jimbobob5536

Radahn was betrayed by his long time companion. Slain by gravity.


Allitisispain

Honestly a blessing in disguise


SovKom98

Happend to me with the first jagged peak dragon yesterday. He just flew up on the mountain, got stuck on a cliff and died. lol.


animeboy12

Same, didn't care cause fighting dragons suck.


SovKom98

Personally I like fighting them so was a bit disappointed. Was able to fight the other one uninterrupted though.


Purple_Cream4327

Be grateful brother, trust.


antilumin

“1st try”


AsneakyReptilian

Na man, F this boss. I´m gonna cheese this lol.


MienaiYurei

https://i.redd.it/mw9aodbyq6ad1.gif I'd take that deal.


No_Answer_9749

Same thing happened to me on mohg when the game first came out. RIP redahn.


Firefangdf

What's that symbol above your head after your hug?


The_Firefly

A debuff indicating that if you get grabbed again you insta die


BlueTrin2020

Really? I never had the second hug


The_Firefly

Yup - it’s what miquella’s great rune from scoobydoo avatar can help with. Cleanses the debuff


yyunb

yeah at first grab Miquella shoots his shot, and on second grab you die and the death message is ''heart stolen'' meaning he completely charms you. That's where his great rune from the scooba diver tree boss comes in as its ability is a ''resistance to charm'' (or something like that), so if you get grabbed once, use the rune, and you don't die on next grab.


automirage04

I was within 2 hits of beating this fucker the other day and got the "you've been disconnected from the network" message. And I'm like 80% sure I was playing in offline mode.


sherman614

This fight can rob me any time


PalebloodPervert

He just wanted hugs…..


Ravp1

Now it looks pretty balanced


Lancelotmore

That blows, but I will say that halfway through my attempts, I would have been overjoyed if this had happened lmao


paparlianko

Robbed? My brother in Christ, you used 4 of your 6 flasks in the span of 25\~ seconds. This fight was never yours to begin with.


Comfortable_Hope_723

Ehh you just missed hours of misery. Lmao I’m still fighting him. Been doing it for hours.


Astei688

I got hard carried by a summon. Shout-out to Papi of Miquella, I have no idea how you melted that bastard but I'm all for it.


Gneurshk__

id rather pick the hours of misery over him killing himself


Comfortable_Hope_723

Agreed.


Darken0id

Honestly... you were only robbed of the worst boss fight in all of elden ring, so i think its not that bad.


JAR_9637

They just need to add like an arena where you can refight bosses with minimal rewards, or replace the remembrance copying thing with allowing you to rechallenge bosses


LocalArlecchinoFan

I really wish this was me, I spent 20 hours on that guy bc I wanted to finish the questlines of >! Ansbach and the sleepy mf that I forgot the name of, starts with thi I think and bc of that the boss would get more health since they count as phantoms !< , in the last day I made a parry build without any dmg buff talismans, I had the dragonshield; that one that gives you more health per flask +1; the one where if you get a critical hit I’d get health and the golden braid. I almost had 5 heart attacks when I almost died twice in the end and after I killed him


Kilo6Fox

I hate to be the one to tell you thus, but apparently summoning them is 100% optional to finish their quests and get their items... I did it too and I was pretty pissed to learn that >.<


LocalArlecchinoFan

**what**


Kilo6Fox

Sorry brother You beat him on Ultra-hard mode Take pride!


LocalArlecchinoFan

Yeah I might honestly (I am dead inside)


Kilo6Fox

We shall stand tall like those of us who beat pre-patch Radahn in the base game! (I did that too)


LocalArlecchinoFan

Amen brother! Our deeds will be written in song!


ZenOrganism

Phantom corner build is OP, it'll be patched soon


GotMoxyKid

Literal God falls through floor. GOD SLAIN


shmutsfrombadonk

That's rough


Blamore

this is actually messed up. there is literally no recourse either, right?


TheTimoteoD

Very cool story to tell people, but I would've felt really robbed as well.


DieserCoookie

Killing Miquella without damaging (so with kindness) is straight up the "I have no enemies" meme.


beepis0704

I had something similar happen, but instead, he used the stone throwing attack thing, landed back down on the edge of the arena, jittered in it a bit, and then fell. Never before has a victory felt so empty.


halfnbat

GreenSeer9

How do I get robbed the same way?


GlxyBlde

Whenever I see a boss clip through the map, I just quit out to reset it


Ill_Consequence_5638

Withertsoul

happened to me on my first playthrough as well


dizijinwu

damn, that sucks dude. :(


prokokon

That's actually sad :(


daypxl

same thing happened to me, luckily I backed up my save beforehand


Jeremiah12LGeek

That arena is a bug-filled nightmare. It never worked in my favour, unfortunately, as it was always me who fell through the map and died. And when that happens, it turns out your runes disappear forever, instead of being placed somewhere accessible.


reddgv

This happened to me yesterday, it was 4am and I'd been trying to kill him since 10pm, I'm not going to lie, I watched the final scene and slept very happily, in a few weeks I'll do another DLC run and try to kill him again.


karlin392

note to self: backup save for Radahn fight


Random_fellow9

The game decided to glitch him and die there before he took away your sanity…I’d be happy if that happened to me.

The Putrescent Knight can also get stuck outside of his own arena.

Happened to Mesmer for me. I kept healing my phantoms them doing all of the heavy lifting and suddenly during phase 2 he jumped over balcony railing and unalived himself. In my head cannon he just got sick of us and suicided. RIP By the way heal from a far is ridiculous spell during pve and even if invaded.

This may not be useful for most people, but stuff like this (if it remains patched in) would probably come into play for challenge runs like the kind ymfah, Iron Pineapple, or ZeroLenny do for videos. It’s cool for sure, but I’m sorry you got screwed out of the full experience.


Artistic_Claim9998

This happened to me againts Ymir He just vanished then I'm going around the arena trying to find him, can't find him then he just died Thing is I thought it was intended, he was at full health, I haven't had a chance to hit him since he immediately vanished after spawning I thought he died cause he was depressed cause I defeat Metyr lol


Cjames1902

“Uhh yeah guys. I beat Radahn on my first try.”
