How do you charge the sword? I picked it up & I tried a charge attack with no change. Please help I don't wanna have to attempt to beat this boss without it.
I got him down to 30% using a normal two handed before I screwed up a roll and died. I figured there was something wrong since it was taking so long and found this. Thanks.
For anyone still having problem with Yhorm, charge up ur stormruler before fight(if u die) and then just release attack. It will stun him, when he is gets on his knees, charge it up again, it can stay charged even if u dont attack, attack him again, he will be stunned again, just do this and he will die even faster
@@rorythomson-bird3040 its not a lie, you precharge it before you enter when you want to attack hold l2 and press attack and it does the special ability
Found the weapon but didn't realize it had a charge mechanic lol. I was hitting him with little wind attacks trying to figure out what to do. Thanks for the vid!
bruh i'm so glad i looked up how to beat him because everyone was saying use the storm ruler but it did the same amount of damage (actually less than my other sword) and nobody mentioned about charging it. once i learned how to do it i beat him first try lol. you earned yourself a like
@Franceskop 23 well Im 10 months late but Im gonna write this anyway in case someone else needs to know. You need to hold shift and right click untill your sword starts glowing (this can take like 5-7 seconds) and then just release the attack with a left click
Great tip, thanks guys. I tried killing him but best I did was brought him down to 50%. Then I found the sword. I had no idea how to use it cause I was to frustrated after an hour, then I found this video. Even though it made the fight shorter, it I was still a struggle as he is very fast and far reaching. 5 hits with it charged and your good. You cannot pass to the Grand Archives without beating Yorm.
You know what's funny? I figured I'm doing something wrong for the first time, but tried to beat him anyway. I tried breaking all the pillars, but that wasn't it. Managed to take 1/5 of his HP pull. When I was dying, I noticed an item to pick near his throne. It was strange to me, that they put an item like that, so my second run to boss was to obtain that item. Got the sword, homeward to firelink. I read the description and understood what I had to do. Third run, let the boss come, I pressed R2 and R1 and.... nothing. I was like WTF?: Tried couple of times, saw that it doesn't do shit to him, so homeward again. Guess what I was doing wrong? I had no idea you could charge that storm attack...
wait your supposed to use a different sword? i thought whenever he swung his sword down you poked at his arms until he died. i made it hard on myself lol
I just fought and beat him first try, and in my mind I was thinking that I should probably grab that item at his throne, ‘cause usually items are only in bossrooms if they’re gimmick bosses, but I decided not to and fought him with my +3 Vordt Great Hammer. Was a pretty fun fight albeit kinda long since I’m pretty sure he’s immune to frostbite
I fought him a minute ago first try with Siegward, usually i wanna solo the bosses but i just wanted to honor Siegward because of the cutscenes ive been seeing I had no idea there was an item you can get and Siegward did most of the damage while i was just spamming R1 on his ass
Thanks bro good shit!! Wish the game would tell you that you NEED to charge that weapon up and specific use that attack. Just killed his ass though in 1 try after seeing this! Thanks! God bless!
He meant, that he is the hardest, when you hit it with normal weapons. With the ruler, i killed him in 1:37..... With Black Blade it took 11 minutes man.....
I use smough great hammer to fight this guy. The boss movement's pattern is easy to grasp compare to other boss for me, but took me such a long time to beat this guy.
Same. Siegward died during the better because I was struggling to understand how to use the weapon. Didn't know I had to charge it that long. It was much more straight forward in Elden Ring.
So THAT'S the secret!! I thought that maybe I had to bait him into breaking all the pillars so that the ceiling would collapse on him or something. But that didn't work. I knew that there was some weird trick but I couldn't figure out what it was. Thank you.
i played this after elden rig and sekiro. i beat him in second try. i just try to hit him in my first fight with my uchigatana. but thei realize something was in front of his throne. then i picked it up but idk that was a sword so i died when im trying to find it in my inventory😭
Eres El verdadero duro de los tutoriales,gracias bro no sabes lo mucho que te agradezco mi novio lleva 5 horas sin poder pasárselo ahora por fin podremos dormir después q lo mate
What was confusing me was the time to charge the weapon. I was like, "I'm charging it and it's doing nothing." If only I had actually charged it LONGER. I'm so stupid man. 😂
I walked in on him for the first time. His attacks where so easy to dodge but I was doing basically no Damage. I kept on dodging and getting hit every now and then and I realized that there must be something to this. My sister was in the room so I asked her to take my phone and look up how to defeat him. She turned this on and I kept on dodging until you said to equip the weapon. I couldn’t find it for a bit and got hit, but in the end I equipped it and the boss was insanely easy. Thank you. Now I can say I beat him first try. I guess that’s not much of an accomplishment, though.
Good job! I just kept swinging with the Storm Ruler till it broke on me. Then I took out my Dark Sword and swung at him for 30 minutes till he fell over and I cheered! Then found you could five shot him with the thing all charged up.

OK, here I am in 2023 and there's NO WAY it plays out like this anymore. Firstly, stormruler is far more temperamental - seems to take longer to charge, misses more frequently than it hits despite being locked on. Yhorm has more attacks - an AOE, which stuns you and nullifies stormruler charge; flame buff for his sword which has an AOE; a sweeping lateral sword swipe which takes you out if you stay near his feet, as the above video advises you to; most of his hits will either one-shot you or stunlock you while he swings again and takes you out. Also - Yhorm is FAST - I try to run to create distance to charge stormruler, he catches me easily and one-shots me. Anyone have ANY idea how to kill this boss in ver 1.15?
Good god I knew I wasn't using that weapon skill right... I gave up and 2H'd a Giant Club and got him 2nd try. Probably took me 20 mins to kill Yhorm. Ahhh this would've been so much more chill lmao
I can't understand what i'm doing wrong, i've been stuck on this asshole for weeks and nothing works, i charge the sword all the way, swing, and it still does absolutely nothing to his health bar, has anyone else had this problem when facing him? i know this is how you beat him but i swear it isn't working.
damn thanks for the tips man.! now i felt like cheating.. i spent 10 minutes trying to reduce his hp to half using a normal heavy sword... with this only took 4 (or 5 sword skill hits)
its not cheating, it's intended to teach players to read info about what they loot and use it against enemies whilst keeping the lore. its as if you found a legendary sword. which you did.
Dude I've played only 2 from soft games ds1 and elden ring and decided to try this one and been doing blind playthrough and have only struggled with Aldrich and this mf I did not know it was this easy 🤯
So the boss fight is near impossible without the stormbreaker. I was using Ithrillyn straigh sword and getting nowhere. Weird cheese the developers offer for an otherwise unfun and difficult boss. Beat it first try with the sword without any effort at all because that charge attack is unbelievably OP
I hate this boss because there's no ingame hints or anything that even say anything about storm ruler, and you wouldn't normally be rushing in to grab an item way in the back of the boss room because you're focusing on the boss. I shouldn't have to look up the weaknesses for bosses online, there should be hints ingame.
Bruh I was trying to fight him with an axe and I was like bruh, I need to hit him like 1038283783 times to kill him, then I discover I need to use that weapon, im retarded
I'm confused how this is the toughest boss if you're using this sword as it's in his lair and it only takes 5 or 6 hits to kill him. I'll give you the answer. It's not. It's the easiest boss fight in this game.
watched this video after I killed him, 20 minutes of exile great sword strikes made this boss the worst thing in dark souls. Luckily only took me 4 attempts, because his move set sucks.
The only thing that made yhorm hard for me was the fact that the storm ruler takes such a long time to charge
that's kinda the point

Same it took ages and then I got d at sloppy for a sec
He's basically a buffed version of those machete guys from Undead Settlement
he made my heart beat really hard, i just killed him 5 minutes ago
The hardest boss just became the easiest one. Funny part is it was right I front of me. Thanks.

I got my weapon to do 190 damage to him, but he wasn't budging, so I looked up this guide. Thank you bro

When I first fought this dude I was confused as to why I was doing like no damage, this video helped me thanks.
Thanks dawg my first attempt I didn’t realize that I had to charge it for that long so I was only doing like 100 damage but this helps
He had us on the first half not gonna lie
the biggest problem with this is that you cant run under him anymore since he will just stomp and push you away and then hit you before you get up
Didn’t know you could charge it and did like 90 damage per hit, thanks for telling me
Somehow siegeward died while fighting him within seconds
I fought him a minute ago first try with Siegward, usually i wanna solo the bosses but i just wanted to honor Siegward because of the cutscenes ive been seeing I had no idea there was an item you can get and Siegward did most of the damage while i was just spamming R1 on his ass
I feel blessed. I did Siegmeyers questline, and he carried this boss. ❤
I saw your video in the middle of the boss took the weapon and won first try thank youuuuu
Bruh, I was just swinging my Claymore at him for 15 minutes per battle until I found this😐
Saved me bro I was like why tf is it doing 0 damage until u showed that it had to be charged up.
I remember first time i fought him. I just wore it down with butcher knife...
Thats what im doing rn cuz Idk how to even lowrr health
@@blu3fire105 you need to use special attack from storm ruler (2handed sword)
Bro my dumbass got his long ass health bar to half way with a normal swors because i never knew the stormcaller had to charge up

I wasted so much time trying to beat him normally but then i decided to look it up
Thanks. Got him no problem after watching this.
how do you charge it up tho?
Thanks. But how did you figure out how to use storm ruler by charging PS: i defeated him thanks to this vid
video doesnt even bother to go to the location of the weapon...but delays long enough to talk about it...such a weird thing to do
He's such an easy boss, I just didn't know wtf to do with the sword. Elden Ring rly improved on it's mechanics

Oh i had no idea that there was a boss weapon there, i was just goung to kill him with the Abyss Watcher Sword.
Yeah, that was a cake walk after discovering I could use that sword after trying to chop him 5000 times
thanks
I spent 20 minutes smacking his knees until he went down.
The charged shot is actually RANGED. Don't need to stand underneath him
Yo do you know how everyone is doing 5000 damage I am only doing 3000
probably easier though. I've been trying ranged an it hasn't been working out for me
Thank you
Thank you!!!
Thanks. He is tough but I honestly think the Abyss Watchers are the worse
How come you don’t lose mana??
Fuck, couldn't figure this out. Broke the sword on him
Why does my guy just swing the sword when I hold stance? I'm 2 handing it, holding L2 n just swinging
You have to wait for it to charge all the way
Oh come on how could we know this weapon ?

Man my blade keeps missing cause he keeps spamming that stupid shout attack and knocking me over
you could just use pestilent mist also
I beat him without the storm ruler, there was a glitch and it didn't appear near the throne.Black fire orb works quite well, just aim for his head.
