its a stylistic mismatch, you can predict a lot of the fights in advance by how the boss is designed and who he is intended to fight. Players usually cant just tank the lava so serpent and rykard barely have any attacks that can deal with close-range attackers, they just attack over his head considering thats where players would usually be standing with the extra range from serpent hunter.
@@M0G4D1SCHU While this is true, it doesn’t change the fact that it’s an amazing feat for the Bell Bearing Hunter to have torn through almost all of the Serpent and Rykards health pools. He did so much damage that he almost won without the gimmick weapon, no heals, and no dodging which is a practically impossible feat for almost any other character
@@tyricegadson7699really don't understand why slow walking to your own death is badass. He probably could have won that fight if he would have walked at anything more than a light stroll.

@@ChameleontheChameleon That’s not how parrying and poise works. Malenia and the crucible knights have the same amount of poise as the bell bearing hunter (80) but Malenia takes 3 parries to break while crucible knights can be broken with one
One of my favorite bosses in the whole game, which is strange cause I hated every other reoccurring guy. His move set is just so unique, and the reveal of his name in your final fight with him is so awesome
One of the fun bosses to practice parrying, I had to learn the hard way with the Caelid version of Bell Bearing Hunter. One of the most satisfying kill in the game for me.
The Malenia fight has some strong "famous swordsman challenges legendary master" vibes. Like he's good enough to impress her but still not good enough to win.
He’s only a side character but his lore is short and sweet He was once a prisoner, sentenced to death for his horrible crimes. On the day he was said to be executed he stole the executioners sword from his own hands and killed him with it, taking the blade as his own. He imbued the weapon with a special arcane magic so that the bell bearing traders he hunted could never flee his grasp. This bell bearing hunter would slaughter both tarnished and traders alike as an invader in their world (hence why he is in multiple places at once and is coated red). With his blade in hand he continues to hunt the nomadic merchants of the lands between. Such a cool character.
You missed the whole, he was a prince of the kingdom of Eochaid which was ransacked by Godfrey, bit. The whole reason he's even in the Lands Between is for revenge against Godfrey. That's why we find him in Shaded Castle with the Marais Sword. It's his family's sword. The Regalia of Eochaid is the sword he came to the Lands Between with. Elemer was killing merchants seemingly to prepare his revenge against Godfrey. He got caught and this is why we find the Regalia outside the prison. My speculation is that we find him looking at that painting of Malenia because he's planning to rebuild his kingdom after taking his revenge. A king needs a queen and he hates Marika and Godfrey. So a princess of a god, a person who is a candidate for godhood, is a prime target for his dynastic ambitions. I do agree that he's really cool. Especially when you dig into him a little deeper.
@@rainbowkrampus got me there, I never read that much into his lore. I definitely didn’t know the bit about his revenge against Godfrey, that makes his design even cooler. A fallen king ready to kill the elden lord. You can see the difference in armor too, Elmer wears a black cape and bloody armor while Godfrey wears a blue cape and clean armor. Very, very awesome. Thankyou for telling me.

Dude really said to Rykard "You think a little lava will stop me?" That shoulder charge on Gideon was cathartic. And the timing of "I need help!" was perfect
That one apparently has the scaling of Elden Throne that is the Godfrey boss arena. Him and the black blade kindred kicked my ass more than I,d like to admit
Honestly I feel like that's intentional to add more mystique and fear around the character. Like this dude shows up using a completely different form of magic than anyone else, using the most unique fighting style in the game, is extremely difficult, and behaves differently to every other boss and enemy.
This is why I wish ALL BOSSES in ER would have their health and damage scaled to the player's character, rather than the region. That way we can have a more consistent gameplay and challenge, rather than a overlevelled cakewalk.
Upper cealid has scaling similar to moutain top or snow field I believe. That is why the soldiers in divine tower of cealid were so strong and almost everything 1-2 shot you when you first got there through mistwood teleport. It is another reason why the bell hunter invader and the ruinbear and the golem (near the painting location) in upper cealid absolutely destroy everything. Meanwhile the lower cealid is much easier

I seriously love this guy. Just look at lore for him/Elemer. Slated for execution in the Shaded Castle, snatches the executioner's blade for himself, and takes over the castle. Even goes so far as to imbue the sword with a special technique from his home of Eochaid. House Marais of the Shaded Castle served Malenia, and you find Elemer staring at a portrait of Malenia in his boss room. I can only imagine that he's plotting his revenge against Malenia as well. Ventures out as Bell Bearing Hunter to collect bell bearings as well. Was hoping he'd do better against her in this video, but he held up well. Serious badass.
@MotardDeFatima Considering there's apparently lore text implying Elemer may have been defeated by Godfrey and taken prisoner, he may be planning to kill Malenia as the step beyond killing the strongest man in the Lands Between.
Mohg vs bell bearing hunter felt just like "bleed build vs any other arcane build" It seems like it's doing slightly better and then the blood proc (NIHIL) hits and you get absolutely obliterated.
I feel like if the stun on mohg triggers at the right time combined with the right attacks, the bell bearing hunter could kill him. It just seems like mohg will win most of the time due to his phase transition.
The fact thar he can go blow for blow even with the stronger bosses is so cool, even Malenia. Of course when she pulled out the waterfowl dance we all knew it was over, but still impressive.
U fortunatrly Blaidd has little poisr and only sround 5k health. His stats are like a late game tarnished summon. He'd need to be buffed a bit to stand a chance against mid to late game bosses.
They don't give the huge bosses enough poise. They're the size of a building, a humanoid character shouldn't be able to stun them short of using some kind of cannon.

maliketh was the hardest boss for me compared to others, it took 20+ attempts, while for malenia was around 15-18 attempts, i killed the elden beast in the first try. i even had more problems with the bell bearing hunter than most bosses in the game.

For being called the strongest demigod of the shattering, I wish radahn wasn't such an early fight, but then again I love using the Starscourge so if he was a later boss. It would take longer to get them.
He's far from the strongest in the current timeline when you face him, after all he has been eaten from the inside by the scarlet rot for likely thousands of years, the man holds back the stars and kills every single person sent to fight him and he does this while in the hospital
i like how the Bell Bearing Hunter just Face-Tanks everything a perfect showcase of how the Player-Poise should have been i wish we could have get the cool Move for the Sword as Weapon-Art (the one where it swings in the distance or maybe the circula sweeping slash) or a Stance-Weapon-Art with the Sweep & the Drill

@@AceArata he wasn’t apart of kales quest he just hunts merchants I think some of them mention people hunting them but that’s it
@@samaramorgan8023??? Just killed him with sorcery without any uncommon problems. He's not Renalla or crystallians.
Bell Bearing Hunter: I have great range, high poise, and a powerful grab!
Melania, Blade of Miquella: But can you heal?
Seeing the scale difference of Bell Bearing Hunter vs Gideon is wild, he looks so intimidating, like a Souls version of Jason from Friday the 13th
He basically is lol
Thank you so much for this video! Been looking for this since Elden ring was released.
Everytime i see Mohg's Nihil, I am like: If House Harslow's story is written with blood, Mohg is the writer.
He grabbed Godfrey so hard he separated him from Serosh
His grab is so strong he dismounted Seros from Godfrey and temporarily decapitated Malenia
This guy is walking menacingly, in every boss battles.
Threatening.
He's a monster! The Gideon fight was hilarious.
Yes, I've always wanted to see the bell hunter go against other bosses
I look forward to "any NPC can survive Bell bearing hunter's invading "
I love how Maliketh just melts everything he fights when he gets his attacks off.
maliketh was the hardest boss for me compared to others, it took 20+ attempts, while for malenia was around 15-18 attempts, i killed the elden beast in the first try. i even had more problems with the bell bearing hunter than most bosses in the game.
@bussolini6307 Same maliketh kicked my ass first time around, I think I was more frustrated with having to run that distance everytime you died lol
Maliketh really is on another level power wise compared to the rest of the Demi - God’s. There’s a reason his name is utterly feared throughout.
Godrick: Forefather one and all...bear witness!!! Bell bearing hunter: Yeah yeah cool story bro
Been watching these vids for a while and I enjoy them a lot! I think a boss counter would be nice to as throughout the vid tallying how much the bosses one vs their opponent! (Like bosses- 2, bell hunter- 13
The fight with Rykard looked so scenic and awesome!
Elemer finally meeting Malenia after staring at her painting for a worrying amount of time: 😍
He was by far my favorite boss in the whole game 🔥🔥🔥 great video
By far??
@@AlvaroGC_2001 well maybe not by far 😂
De los mejores jefes
Bro is so underrated, he doesn't even drop a remembrance. Meaning no one remembers him.
Yet he can kick everyones ass.
10:13 Bell Bearing Hunter slowly walking though a field of exploding rocks with 1 hp is probably the most BA thing I’ve seen on this channel.
He may have lost the fight, but he won our hearts
7:10 "I need help"
BRO, what do you think im going to do vs that man. ITS ALL YOU MAN. That man can have any thing and everything he wants. Free of charge.
Radahn trying to get into position for his meteor takeoff animation is like watching a dog finding the right spot to poop.
Lets note that this is not a demigod and is just a criminal.
He was *very* close to skipping Mohg's phase 2, which is insane.
Damn this dude went toe to toe with Malenia and did way better than anticipated. Guy’s a badass
So game mechanic wise, he is approximately as strong as Radagon. Interesting...
Now, can you do Deathrite Bird (Consecrated Snowfield) vs all bosses?
He has huge trouble against enemies with high mobility
@@mambiwhoknows2501 Not to mention he only has around 10k hp - Not much compared to most late game bosses.
That one INDEED will solo malenia
@@irtendor5885 for real??
@@mambiwhoknows2501 Death Rite Bird in Consecrated Snowfield has 17625 HP according to Elden Ring fandom. I don't know why this dude's comment gets likes
Suggesting- Super Hoslow bros, Juno and Diallos Vs all bosses
10:10 - 10:18 pure 1pixel HP Badassery. I can't believe he didn't died there
I love how he chokes godfrey into two character models
A legendary boss, but he could not escape destined death
20:25 pretty epic sequence that lines up perfectly with the music
This guy could bring his sword to a gun fight and win.
17:09 that dodge though it gave me chills
He does it almost 99% at the start of every fight. It’s a fun move to bait, and it’s cool to see him use it as a dodge / get behind you style attack.
I only discovered this guy on my NG+2 run. The Caelid version gave me quite à hard time so it was very satisfying to watch him get bodied buy the majority of the late game bosses
Nice of the bell bearing hunter to push Serosh out of the way when he grabbed Godfrey lol
That was awesome! Powerful AF, but he had his limitations.
Shoulder checking Gideon as he was about to get up on his feet looked cinematic as fuck hahaha brutal 7:00
maybe this guy should seek the elden ring, why should we do it when someone like him is just hanging around
They didn’t have to do my boy Radahn like that man seriously
8:13 that bonk to the head was hilarious XD
The malenia getting grabbed model is just hilariously borked. Man snapped her spine like a twig
Holy shit I’ve never seen Placidusax be so aggressive
6:08 I really thought the hunter was making that sound as special effects for a second xD
Mohg is always about to die then just goes nah it’s fine and swaps health bars
NIHIL!
Finally get to see this boss in one of your videos 🥳
Bell bearing hunter became remembrance hunter
Ser Elemer of the Briar, a known felon and villain to all of those who inhabit the lands between
For being called the strongest demigod of the shattering, I wish radahn wasn't such an early fight, but then again I love using the Starscourge so if he was a later boss. It would take longer to get them.
He's far from the strongest in the current timeline when you face him, after all he has been eaten from the inside by the scarlet rot for likely thousands of years, the man holds back the stars and kills every single person sent to fight him and he does this while in the hospital
i like how the Bell Bearing Hunter just Face-Tanks everything
a perfect showcase of how the Player-Poise should have been
i wish we could have get the cool Move for the Sword as Weapon-Art (the one where it swings in the distance or maybe the circula sweeping slash) or a Stance-Weapon-Art with the Sweep & the Drill
Godfrey: I killed my pet for tat???
This was definitely one of the best boss challenges I've seen overall.
I didn't think he would beat Radagon, he's really strong.
I love how half of the bosses get killed and the rest just give him a whooping of a life time
Really wish we could use the sword like him
i think you can actually, not sure where though maybe the shaded castle
@@pookiegaming75 yea I know where to get it but u use it completely different the only thing u get from his sword is the drill technique not the force slice
@@knifez007 i misunderstood your comment, my bad
The Godfrey fight was amazingly cinematic two chads going at it
19:49 Pretty lore canon
As Elemer is a sinful guy
Radagon was an even match for the hunter until right at the end. What an amazing fight.
Well then, now I dont feel so bad about him kicking my can all those times before.
I remember back in my first playthrough, after beating Radagon i decided to tie up loose ends and go fight the Caelid Bell Bearing Hunter, confident that i've become powerful enough to steamroll him. He steamrolled me instead.
The fact that he just ignored every fireball at 10:05 with 1 GODDAMN HP is pretty badass
4:45 cinematic as fuck
The design, the name, the moveset. Elemer of the Briar is the certified Sith Lord, Darth Briar.
