That particular Bell Bearing Hunter is the bane of my Elden Ring existence 😭
I feel ya bro 😂😭
Definitely causing many tarnished to have PTSD (and also the black blade kindred) 🙃
Before they patched the gank fights in this game I was on the verge of chucking my controller out the window. The Putrid Crystallians rekt me.
Same here. But I died the most to the one in Church of Vows, cause he was the first I encountered and he kept wrecking my ass for 40 tries xD
They are so annoying cuz you cant really cancel their attacks
Fun fact: there's a small chance that Greyoll can get up and instant kill you
I feel like you shouldve counted that one golem near dragonbarrows minor erdtree, it gave me some trouble because it is just insanely tanky and its damage output was kinda ridiculous.
I was going to say the same thing. That golem is the talkies tank that ever tanked. Hate him. Lol
honestly thanks to these lists and my playthroughs of elden ring, the godskin apostles and flying dragons are my favorite non main fights
The Godskin Apostle in the Divine Tower has gotta be my favourite non-Remembrance fight in Elden Ring. The build-up of finding a way to climb up and inside before descending down deeper and deeper inside the tower. A feeling of dread building as I encounter the enemies, feeling like I don't belong, like this area is profane and cursed. Then finally reaching the boss, realising that this is the guy from the leaked concept art, hype finally realised. Hearing the amazing music, and a great fight on top. By far one of the highlights in the whole game for me.
Billy! Love your content and I’m so sad you didn’t get to play test shadow of the erdtree ❤❤ I think definitely next time you’ll be big and famous to get Michaelzaki’s attention! Wish I could subscribe twice.
For me personally the bell bearing hunters are the my most favorite ones behind Crucible Knights. But the one in Caelid is the hardest. On my recent playthrough getting ready for the DLC and learning to parry I still haven't beaten him. His force attack gets me every single time.
i love fighting the putrid avatar well only on low levels hes easy when you are at the correct level but without that hes a boss with a simple moveset but very dangerous as one mistake can mean death and with out learning his moveset he will beat your ass at low levels but than on a different playthrough you beat easily
Greyoll and Night's Cavalry are the best bosses in Dragonbarrow - free runes...
Was boutta say, 50000 free runes for doing jack shit but swing at a crippled old dragon? Yes please
Dragonbarrow can be a brutal area for midgame. I usually split it up on my playthroughs, and save the tougher fights like Black Blade Kindred and the Godskin Apostle for when I reach the Mountaintops. Even then I feel like I’m perfectly leveled for the fights. Hell the Kindred in the Forbidden Lands is easier than the one in Dragonbarrow
I find the Cleanrot Duo a bizarre choice of boss considering that, not too far away from the cave, is the Swamp of Aeonia, where there are Cleanrot Knights regularly patrolling. I just can't respect them as a proper boss because of it.
Godskin Apostle is a fun boss, easily one of my favorites
I still don’t get why the Bell Bearing Hunter is harder than Elemer. Like you’d think his projection would be weaker than his real self.
Divine tower Apostle is one of my favorite fights on the game. And the difference between that one and the Atlis one really highlights how easily a mismatch in scaling can ruin a fight
To help with the abandoned cave either:
1) have a weapon with quick step to get through the rot instantly
2) when you jump in, turn around and tap your back step. It works the same as quick step but just a bit slower.
Without those though, what a nightmare of a layout for no reason :(
Edit: you also get the crystal ashes in the cave with the 3 crystalians. This is GREAT for mages as the summon never loses the hyper armor like the enemy does
Lack of proper legacy dungeon helps to balance the boss quality since there's not that one major boss that is cooler and leagues better than anything else
Dragonbarrow confuses me from a difficulty design perspective. It's weirdly scaled to the same level as end game areas (smack dab in between Faraam Azula and the Consecrated Snowfield), which is a large part for why there are so many stupidly good resources found there (somber 8 and 9, Greyoll droppoing an absurd amount of runes, etc.) It really feels like they only scaled it that high so that Guranq would be really difficult without considering how it's literally a short jump away from the rest of Caelid, which is half as difficult scaling wise... really confuses me, is all
Hell, going off of the scaling params, Guranq in Dragonbarrow is HARDER than he is in Faraam Azula which... is just incredibly stupid, not gonna lie
What's even more odd is, that they expect you to explore the place at the late-early/early-midgame level, since Fort Faroth houses the dectus medallion, which is on of the ways to enter the Altus Plateau. Radagons Soreseal is another example of weird loot, since it is the endgame variant of the Scarseal, but is significantly easier to obtain, compared to killing the Ancient Hero of Zamor (Marikas Soreseal found in the Haligtree, which makes much more sense to me). I guess they wanted to give you a late game area to dip your feet in if you are daring, which is quite doable actually, since the enemy density is very low; most can easily be avoided. It honestly gave me a really cool sense of "oh this isn't allowed/intended, but I am going to explore further" vibes.
That's what I did as well but I farmed those irregular militia enemies after getting the gold scarab which was a struggle in itself since I only had a limited amount of preserving boluses and I didn't want to use those without making it to the boss fight. So once I got comfortable with the lay out I used those and got the gold scarab. Then I got to level 60 or around there which is a pretty reasonable level for a melee build for that area. I was able to pre nerf Radahan running and dodging and summoning. But the rest of the enemies like those birds and dogs I ran past those after fighting a couple of those.
My hypothesis is that the giant structure beneath Gurranq was originally planned to contain another post-Mountaintops legacy dungeon with Maliketh at the bottom, but then of course they ran out of time again. Reasons why I believe this:
1. The final boss rush always felt a little odd to me, as if they'd finished the boss battles but ran out of time to give them locations.
2. Any other building in the game has an interior. The only other exception were the collosseums at release, but they were also intended to house something and eventually got that with a patch, leaving just the Gurranq building. And it's quite a landmark, it's very prominent on the map, you'd just expect something to be there.
3. All other major legacy dungeons have a thematically fitting boss, only Farum Azula has Maliketh for some reason. Placidusax would be the obvious choice, as would Maliketh in the Gurranq building. They're even both at the end of Farum Azula, both accessed from the last site of grace, and it's the only legacy dungeon with a secret remembrance boss. Coincidence? I think Placcy was relegated to secret boss to make place for Maliketh here.
4. There are 9 smithing & somber bell bearings in the game, mostly spread out far and wide over the game--until you reach Farum Azula, where there are suddenly 3 of them crammed together in one place, again as if they suddenly ran out of places to put them.
5. Dragonbarrow just so happens to be just one level above Farum Azula in terms of enemy scaling.
...I think I'd thought of even more reasons, but these were some of the most important ones off the top of my head. Of course I could be completely wrong about this, but I do think there are quite a few things adding up here.
@@docstrangelove1347 I also think that, if you consider the possibility that Farum Azula could have used to be roughly where Radahn's arena now stands (would explain the Farum Greatbridge being where it is, if you ask me) and the general strangeness of Maliketh being in both places at once, I could definitely see Placidusax being the OG boss for Farum Azula, and the center of time being a more important location allowing you to find the way to open the road to Destined Death proper that you'd imagine would be why Gurranq holds down the fort even now.
Call me crazy but I LOVE the crystal rot trio. Kinda wish they didn’t have Scarlet Rot but I love how you need to ‘break’ their armor then blitz them down while avoiding the others.
I love the Godskin Apostle, handsdown my favorite foe, I never tired fighting them, their theme I hold up high among the Bosses of this game.
If there is a Godskin in the dlc, I will welcome them as well.
The Caelid Tower apostle is goated. He was my first godskin fight and absolutely ran me through the shit. Such a well designed fight and way better than the noble. Whenever I fight the duo I just kite the noble and fight apostle until the fights over.
Great 😮😊
That apostle was the first one i found, and i spent over 2 hours on him.
I only fight the Nights Calvary of Dragons Borrow to get the Bloodhound step. Just like I only fought the 2 in the Snowfields for the armor. I never fight them for the runes or the challenge. They're just too much of a hassle. The reward is what makes fighting them worth it.
Between the black blade kindred and the bell bearing dragonbarrow gave me PTSD from my first play through. 😅
I hate the beast men so much, the guy throwing the disc's just never stops and the melee is super agro too so it feels like no matter who you go after you're probably just trading damage
I always confuse the Godskins Apostle and Noble, so I just call them Mr. Noodle and Roly Poly. 😅
I honestly felt really bad about attacking Greyroll because she can’t fight back.
I wonder, Which's gonna be the Next...
IDK Why I Kinda... Wanna Mount Gelmir, Shaded Castle, and Volcano Manor to be Put Together as 1 Video.
And The Capital, Along with the Sewer Leve, The Divine Tower on the way of the Snowy area, and
The Area Around the Capital. Which Speaks about the Dragon 2 BOSS Fights around the Capital,
The Tree Sentinel Duo with the Gargoile after them, the Draconic Tree Sentinel.
And the Capital with Godfree and Morgot, and Later Godeon and Godfree/Horalux and the Finale BOSS.
And the Sewer BOSS, And Maybe the Avatar, and the 4 Tree Spirits in the City. The one in the Hormal Capital Part,
And Later the Trio from the Ashen Capital Version...
IDK... Maybe (Maybe) And the Magmawyrm, from the Cave, and also the
Falling Star Too.
While I like the Dragonbarrow‘s atmosphere it is sad that the bosses are just reused assets with some stats on top. Come on, not a single badass unique dragon fight? That is a crime.
Fortunately their stats make them fun and challenging to fight regardless but it does make the area seem rushed. Another saving grace that distinguishes the area is that it can be reached early to cheese runes which helps „boss rush“ playthroughs a lot.
141 attempts for Malenia, mate, that's insane to keep going here. I think I took about 100 tries over one and a half week.
I want to like the Godskin Apostle, but I can't find my way around that stupid double-slash attack they do. Any way I could avoid it?
Parry the second one.
@@nayyarrashid4661 Thanks! but I play without a shield so I mostly dodge I'm looking for a way to avoid it that way
Dodging to the right should keep you out of the range of the second swing.
@@Bendanna93 k I’ll give it a shot
For me black blade kindred was the worst on my first playthrough, the clean rot duo everyone should always defeat fast as possible cause they drop the scarab that gives 20% more runes and everything,e you beat a boss you can hot swap that talisman in to get the boost as boss is dying
Guys l, I bought the laptop. Now just have to upgrade the ram I will finally be able to play elden ring
It will never not upset me that the player version of the Kindred Halberd and Twinblade have the generic "Spinning Slash" and not the Destined Death Tornado that the actual Bosses use. Biggest disappointment in the game.
That apostle ruined me for about a solid hour. Thank god we would t see him again….
That’s not the real fruit ☝️🤓
