@@cursedshinobi5769 nah this one is insane. Never spend that much time for a bossfight.

@@egg_runner8379 was kinda in panic everytime I saw it and surprised at the same time 😅

@@xymos7807 sounds like you made a new discovery as well 😄

@@user-nb6mv3ny8i more surprised in my opinion. „What did you have done to me“ 😂

@@real_simbert seeing him make that face whenever you parry is definitely priceless lmao

@@LayDownAndRot heard there is a new bleed weapon which hits instantly after one heavy attack. Bleed can be insane against him as well 👍🏻

@@real_simbertwhat’s the name please?

@@sanilll9118 Bloodfiend's Arm

Guess that is a experience to take anyways as you might learned to dodge some attacks 😅

You literally mirrors my feelings after I saw it from another one as well. 😂

@@real_simbert took me 3 hours but I got him, death by parry thanks 🙏

@@gabrielaguilar7606 nice. Welcome in the parry club 👍🏻

He is weak to holy. Another tip I discovered during my tests before beating him. Even in second phase (but not that much that in first phase)

Funny story: I know it is better so equipped it with my first attempts, failed pretty much, went to another shield and did better parry instantly somehow. 😅😂 That’s why I was not using buckler.

Carian retaliation has slightly better parry frames than a buckler

@@real_simbert this is interesting. I had the opposite where I normally use carian retaliation because it is the better parry (at least prior to 1.12 it had 20% more active frames, I don't know what the new measurements are as they changed some of the parries). The buckler parry hitbox is higher up so I found it helped a lot with Radahn in particular because he is so much taller than you are and tends to be swinging down at you.

@@StephenrHamilton I got confused in general about radahn as when you fight him first in radahn festival he is not able to be parried when I am correct and in the dlc you can parry him.

@@real_simbert He's bigger in his old body, that's why.

I feel like any type of indicator sounds good but I would start to hate it if I see a icon pop up for example which tells me „oh you can parry that“ 😅

@@real_simbert Honestly the entire combat design of the souls games needs an overhaul, Sekiro showed how fun and fast a dynamic skill based system can be. It's still servicable but Elden Ring has shown how thin we are stretching it.

@@JustaSmilingHedgehog nah I am completely fine with that. In fact I started with Sekiro and changed to Elden Ring later. Must say I had much more fun with Elden Ring later. Maybe because Elden Ring has more content 😅

I wish not. Sekiro was it's thing. It's not good or bad game design, it's simply different. And for unparryable attacks in sekiro you still unlocked ways to counter some of them with skills. In souls-like the fun is trying to actually find out what is parryable (at least for me) And yes, i would consider it handholding if the game told you.

Luckily with this boss almost anything that clangs when you try to parry, can be parried. At least so long as his feet are on the ground. Like the two sword sweep you see him dodge away from at the very start can be parried, but the timing is harder than it seems. Elden Ring is definitely weird with its parries though. My least favourite is when enemies do swings through the ground and you can't parry them if you are standing in the wrong place because it goes under the parry hitbox (this is where golden parry can be great though).

Guess it would be the case when I parry with a dagger or curved sword.

Kinda the same with Sekiro. You play the game for many many hours just to learn how to deflection perfectly and be aggressive at the same time.

I don’t know how you can make those things more obvious 😅. What I basically did before was testing around with some tactics for example what damage type or what elemental damage he is weak to. After a while I discovered that he is weak to holy damage in the first phase and a bit less weak to holy damage in his second phase.

I don’t read much from Reddit about the DLC so idk 😅. You have many opportunities to beat that guy. Can’t wait for those people who are extremely talented to show their challenges run in the DLC.

If someone is going to do that it would be amazing 😅

Good that parry kinda block hits as well 😅

Saw that someone did that with use of greatshield talisman. Was pretty cool to watch.

That's carian retaliation It can be used as well as a normal parry, but with the advantage of being able to parry spells with projectiles too (if the enemy has any, and also it costs FP to parry spells)

@@szarekhthesilentking7043plus the parry window is bigger (better)

I don’t know? So I am not familiar with editing or recording in general. I use medal recording software and just did the general settings to record something. What I noticed is that my game audio is pretty loud.

If I had time I would check at 4:32 . That one was pretty close to death as well 😅

@@real_simbertYeah man😂, amazing fight tho

I will stay with that video as a one time nightmare. I will not repeat that ever again 😂unless I go for a second run in the dlc

Yes. But seems you can get used of it after a pretty while.

Personally I tried to do a normal run first and did it up 50% HP. His second phase was hard. So I went to parry the whole fight. During that I somehow managed to learn some of his attacks and how to dodge them. That is pretty funny for me 😅

True. I could not believe my eyes as I discovered that 😂

May it was my mistake. I though carian ret had a bigger window to parry. Seems like golden parry is better. So I cant really answer to this question 😅 Beside I guess my mana is enough to actually run golden parry next time :)

@@real_simbertoh i thought buckler parry is the best. Most of the time buckler “feels” like it has the biggest window. Maybe I was wrong.

@@fukunaga-kane you are right in that. But I specifically talk here about ashes of war differences and not shields in general 👍🏻

​@@fukunaga-kane Buckler and golden parry have the same amount of parry frames being the best but technically golden parry is better because it has range and can parry at mid distance instead of point blank like every other parry

Was surprised that this even worked in fact you can’t parry the original radahn when I remember correctly.

This armor has style 😁

@@real_simbert Wouldn't the blade of mercy talisman be better than the dagger talisman

@@bbtv3961 I used it in some of my previous attempts and didn’t liked it. The effect is only for 20 seconds if I am correct. So it might be good when I am running a build which is meant to poise break without using a shield. I didn’t test it much but that is my experience from all of my attempts.

I guess a mix of r6 and cod would fit better

It is a laser for first shots so you can give it a try.

So far I would say no. But you can experience it for yourself and ask some other people to get more opinions 👍🏻
