Is this boss supposed to be hard?
Was this post supposed to be gayer than Radahn?
>>738312858>Summoning>Spear cheeseDidn't even start the DLC.
>>738312858>0 souls
>Summon>Greatshield poke>Bleed>Still died at least once>Only 3/14 heals leftYeah. We can see that the boss was tough even with all the advantages you had.
kek op is a faggot
>>738312858Its a video game so no
>not at RL1Didn't beat the boss
>>738313756Webm shows him beating the boss.
>>738313083>>738313641>>738313703>NOOO YOU CAN ONLY BEAT THE BOSS THE WAY I SAY THAT'S NOT ALLOWEDlol, suck my dick
>>738313787Looks can be deceiving,
he was hard enough you had to respec your whole build just so you could barely winmight as well have turned the game off and watched someone else do it on youtube instead
>>738312858>summoning>spear cheese>fingerprint shield>+12 flask>bleed>rune arc usedYou didn't beat the game
>>738313903Have you played elden ring? That is what it looks like when you kill PCR.
>>738312858I tried doing this method and he still deals half of my stamina bar per hit if I block, never stops attacking, and when he hits me it takes 1/4th of my hp at 20 scatfrags and 40 vig with the holy braid and +3 physical resist talismanhow do I beat him
>>738313964No it does not.
>>738314002What shield are you using?
>>738313964PCR got right back up and pwned him.
>>738312858based
>>738313883Based as fuck video game enjoyer.
>>738312858The one boss in the entire souls series I haven't killed. It just doesn't seem fun
>>738313883you just can't comment on the challenge if you used coop. this has always been the case in every souls game
>>738314083tried finger, mornes, and the black knight greatshield for the holy resistance
>>738312858Difficulty is purely relational, more news at 11.
>>738314002If you want something really bain dead, get dryleaf arts + palm blast skill.>dryleaf arts has really low stat requirements>heaviest armor you can wear>boiled crab>holy braid and +3 physical resist talisman>opaline hardtearThen keep spamming charged palm blast and chugging your flask when you get low. The damage reduction is pretty bonkers.
>>738314105>answering to his own post>completely attacking a strawmanThe original question was "Is this boss supposed to be hard?" and when people pointed out that despite using a meta as fuck build he still had trouble, the goal posts shifted to "WELL I CAN PLAY HOW I WANT!"Peak reddit retardation on your part.
>>738314259Are you not using the Greatshield Talisman?
>>738313931>you PLAYED le GAME?!>you did le NOT PLAYED le GAYME
>>738314002Did you upgrade your shield? Upgrading improves stability.
>>738314326Im using the twin turtle talisman + erdtree blessing +3
>>738314253thats an NPC doe
>>738314561my gf first game was elden ring, at first she struggled with the little imp statues.at some point she got to margit, since she was struggling she decided to summon the jellyfish. she soon jumped off cause she realized that she was literally winning first try with the jellyfish with no struggle at all.npc summon, player summon, spirit ashes, doesn't matter. if the boss attention is shifted, you're cheating him. and sure, you can do that if you have fun that way. but you cant comment the difficulty then
soulsfags getting riled up when their game turns out to be a complete joke when played with half a brain
>>738314554You need the Greatshield talisman. It reduces stamina usage on guarding.
>738315056>complete joke when played with half a brain>still died at least once and clearly struggle looking at their healing chargeskek, shazam trannies are upset again.
>>738315056True, I've never understood the difficulty meme other than the absence of traditional handheld tutorials. Demons Souls and Dark Souls were always more of a tour kind of game with cool monsters to me.
>>738314002Increase your END.I always aim for 60 since ER is so stat-crept compared to DaS.You can easily have 60 VIG, 60 END, two 40'd offensive stats alongside 20 MND, and still hang around the 150-167 RL mark for online play.ER is an RPG, play it like one, not a shitty action game with basically only 3 actions (light attack, jump, roll) where you gimp your stats because people on this board are retarded and offer terrible advice all the time.
>>738312858You forgot shield grease and to pick up the antspur, retard. Also not hard, just lazily designed.
>>738314918NPC summons being present boosts the bosses' stats.
>>738313883>UMM THIS GAME'S NOT EVEN HARD>did literally everything he could to make it easy on himself>only 3 heals left>using summonsGo piss your pants in some other space.
(you)
>>738315375>if the boss attention is shifted, you're cheating himstop playing the retard
>>738315056>soulsfags getting riled up when their game turns out to be a complete joke when played with half a brainBecause they're retarded. Literally just remind them that difficulty is a purely relational and emergent property, because it is.
>>738315056You had to look up someone else's build because you couldn't do it with your own. Your brain was so lacking you needed someone else to do it for you.
>>738315462Most bosses get stat boosts that make the NPC summons liabilities rather than assets. Ansbach and Thiollier in particular make the PCR fight way harder.
>>738315570not true
>>738315661Ansbach and Thiollier make the fight so much harder that their bodies post-fight are right near the entrance gate, as though they got their asses kicked ASAP. They barely contribute anything and skyrocket PCR's stats.
>>738315757why are you playing retarded?
>>738312858>Desperately had to change build after dying repeatedly and forced to summonI mean, the fact you changed your build and summoned says it's hard.
>>738315056Radahn is harder than any NG, DMC, or Bayonetta boss lol. That doesn't even matter tho because they're mostly just adventure games
>>738315301I mean, they're adventure games. The same logic applies to action games since they're piss easy too though. I don't know what a hard game would even look like
>>738313883>still died using the piss baby easy mode>"T-That boss was s-supposed to be hard?"Embarrassing to say the least
>>738312858I guess? Well, no boss is challenging if you know what you're doing, but we have a lot of casuals playing Souls games that don't know what they're doing, are incapable of adapting and refuse to get help, so they get frustrated over being unable to win while trying to do the same thing and hoping they'll get a lucky shot
>>738315416The fuck does it say about a game's difficulty if you need to consciously and purposely avoid things that make it not hard? I'll tell you what: it means the game is EASY outside of artificial restrictions.
>>738316772>if you need to consciously and purposely avoid things that make it not hard?OP had to seek those things out and change his build to use them so he could beat this boss. It was too hard for his sorcery build.
>>738312858>not rollingdidn't beat the game
>>738312858Didn't know poking behind a shield still works in this
>>738316772But the important thing is not beating the game, it's doing it any way you want.
>>738316772you took half an hour to come up with this pig shit?
>>738315950Play the actual game, anon. Ansbach and Thiollier in that fight are like Solaire and Lautrec against the Gaping Dragon.
>>738318769Solaire does nothing against the Gaping Dragon though.
>>738318769that must be why OP has ansbach in his clip, right? again, why are you playing retarded?
>>738317805The important thing is beating it in the hardest possible way so you can look down on the plebs--the fuck are you on about? Fun...!
>>738317326Block, deflect, parry all dunk on rolling but people will still call ER rollslop. Even jump r2 spam will perform better than playing as if it's DS3.
>>738317054>tfw shieldless light-rolling faith/dex character on Prime Radahnhahaha. this sucks man.
>>738312858>moving in any direction for any reason whatsoever You didnt beat the game
>>738319156I've read this comic.
>>738313641honestly it's impressive how hard he isyou don't even have to cheese dark souls bosses and they're fucking trivial. i've been doing a naked + club + no-shield run in ds1 and while i die to bosses, it's usually due to a 1-hit kill or getting stunlocked into a 2-hit kill. the only way i could gimp myself harder is to go fist-only and do sl1.pulling out all the stops and using the defacto hard counter and niggas still can't beat PCR first try. that's very impressive on fromsoft's part, especially because he's genuinely a more "fair" fight than Malenia and Rellana.
>>738313883this kills the fromslopper
>>738319115i beat him shieldless and light rolling too. he's tough as nails, but fun and cool.
>>738318856That's the point, they just give the boss huge stat boosts and get their asses whupped.>>738318882OP was making it harder on himself by having Ansbach.
>>738312858>playing it after the boss got nerfedyou didn't beat it
>>738319115He was hard but doable on my powerstanced katana build. Granted, the difficulty is backloaded so I'd just get destroyed on the second phase all while almost no-damaging the first one.Now Senessax, that was some prime bullshit. Took me like ten hours.
>>738314253The game is designed with coop though. It's not some exploit.
>>738312858>shieldpoking shitdahnBased kingAlso nice of you to include Ansbach
>>738323536never said that. i said you can't comment on the difficulty if you use summons. i've been playing souls for more than a decade, and coop was always easy mode.
>>738313883youve no dik to suck
