He is literally missing an arm and one of the NPC's story is he fought him and cut his arm off

I totally missed that, who's the motherfucker who cut his arm, then? I thought either he just has 3 hands, or the fourth one is actually the one that sticks out of his cocoon in Mohg's arena. Though, he was reborn anew, as we saw his crosses were he left his left and right hands, so either he had to have 6 arms, or was resurrected with 3 arms or 4 arms and someone cut one off

Ansbach seriously hurt the little tranny faggot trying to free Mogh from his enchantment. The logical answer is he cut one of his arms off before he got charmed and entered the shadow realm following him. That's why Mogh is trying to repair the arm into a full body when nothing else is on the cocoon.

They're more or less finished, they're just "having trouble" dodging Miquella's grab attack.

Finally got the bastard, after more than 30 tries. No other boss in any Souls game gave me so much trouble. Two things that helped a lot:
- Verdigiris Greatshield +10 with 90 stability
- Lord's Divine Fortification, bringing holy resistance up from 65% to 85% (enough time to cast it before he does his big AoE attack).

I was able to avoid Antspur rapier with rot and bleed, but still, didn't like this fight at all. I went back to help people with Messmer instead in co-op, never touching this final fight again.

Now - sadness. The DLC made me very happy for those last 50 days. It only reminded me how much From shits on other devs right now, in terms out creativity, art, level design, difficulty, boss design, build variety, enemy variety and other things.

As for me, I parried him and then stabbed him with a misericorde. Glad you made it, though.

It's an interesting world you live in, where using a shield and a spell is cheesing :)

I just killed Midra which shows without doubt that parry is something FromSoft thinks is the "intended" way to deal with some bosses or enemies:



This boss vindicates everything i said about this. He uses those very same slow attacks i suggested were a clear tell tale sign you were meant to parry them (Crucible Knights, Commander Niall, Bell Bearing Hunters and so forth, as well as bosses like Morgott etc), and then there's that whole gimmick with the untouchables which can only be killed with parry (and you get a note in the game that tells you this), which sets your mind on parry before you even fight the boss.

Sometimes I can unironically agree with your arguments, but you need to know that saying that "using a shield and a spell" is "cheesing a boss" makes you sound stupid.

The only stupid people are the ones taking this thread seriously. There's no point trying to discuss the merits of Elden ring in a thread with people who will unironically defend From's camera or hit boxes.

Saying something can be improved is one thing, being a little bitch about it is another.

15 fucking years of broken GARBAGE and you think it can be improved? From won't improve shit and you know it and I know it. And their retarded fanboys will defend it no matter what. Did you notice the camera zooms out for some fights in previous games but sticks it right up the ballsack of every dragon?

Elden ring is literally one of the worst games ever made mechanically. Dark souls 3 looks pretty spiffy in comparison at this point and that game is an abortion all of it's own.

Considering how easy is to code a 3rd person camera and your expertise in the matter you should start a company doing just that. Somehow nobody gets it quite right so you'll have a solid market. Or at the very least sell just your expertise to all these incompetend lazy fucks that call themselves devs.
