If you ever wondered why this guy is so strong, it's because he has 80% resistance to slash and pierce damage. That means he has effectively 55k HP against most weapons. He also has 40% resistance to all elements, and 35% for standard damage. His one and only weakness is strike damage. Slap that on a boss that procs frostbite with an already high-damage breath attack and near-unreactable roars up close, and you get Borealis.
Fromsoft has such a bonk fetish. Strike/Blunt damage across all their games have always never been overall resisted but rather often deals bonus damage whenever it doesn’t deal neutral damage.
He didn’t like getting screamed at like he does to everyone else ( Someone will probably comment and tell me this one doesn’t have the extreme attack and idc )
A roar of Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the Lands Between? Localized entirely within Mountaintops of the Giants?
You just know that back in Godfrey's day, a fight like that between him and Borealis would've been one that had _songs_ written about it. What a comeback!
As cool and frightening Lanseax and Fortisax are, I never are afraid of fight them, nor any other dragon in the game including Placidusax, but BOREALIS?! hell, I always run straight across his legs to the church of marika to get the grace. Hes a beast
Nice to see Astel's attacks being able to absolutely _SHATTER_ through him, and also neat seeing him on such a brightly lit open field. Also, Radagon had one hell of a go!
Godskin Noble just pulled one of the biggest comebacks I’ve ever seen. Placi’s finisher was crazy. He made Borealis confused due to how he disappeared for far longer than expected and before he realized that the Dragonlord was plotting something, it was too late. Placi then just refuses to elaborate and leaves. Another moment where Godfrey has had enough and once he was done he just proceeded to kill some stray jellyfishes to ease himself off his uncontrolled rage. Maliketh did what Radagon could’ve done in this video, being the clutchlord of the day
Godfrey was furious that Borealis had died "too early" despite having very nearly had his goose put on ice. Also it's been a while since he's had someone to genocide.
long time we haven't seen the Death CHAD Bird drop the super duper explosive ghostflame nuke clutch and obliterate the enemy cool to see this move again
R.I.P. for Radagon, that was almost a really cool victory. Just gonna have to settle for a moderately epic defeat. And then there's Placidusax swooping in and getting the awesome finisher that Radagon could've had. Not Mohg and Borealis having a shouting match. The fact that the Fire Giant could technically knock a wyvern out of the sky is more impressive than him being able to win at all. It would've been so cool if Hoarah Loux jumped up to Borealis, but the subversion on his part is also really good. Maliketh really braving the cold and biting bigger than his bark, there. Common Rick, Soldier of God W.
The dragon roaring 3 times in a row with Gideon for no specific reason is so real, mf will just spam roar at low health so you can't get close enough to hit him, and then fly around shitting icicles on you until you die.
Now imagine some of the more underrated bosses in the game like Ancient Dragon Lansseax, Moongrum, Margit the Fell, Bols Carian Knight or even the giant flower that beat Godrick in the Miquella’s Haligtree breach video as OP and amped up by B-Bear or some other mod that he finds. You won’t need to amp up Godrick though, it’s enjoyable watching him kneeling to those who he commands to kneel 💀
J'adore ce boss même si c'est le même que le Tertre draconique sauf qu'il est plus résistant et qu'il crache du givre très sympa comme boss il manque plus que le dragon exalté ça serait un truc de fou , j'adore ton contenu Bjorn the Bear toujours au top et les idées sont là continue comme ça
17:50 I see a lot of people talking about Placidusax(who is undoubtedly super cool). But i see no one talking about that sync between Mohg and Borealis??
Yea *almost* nobody talking about Mohg, but i think the most underrated part is the absolute disrespect towards phase 1 Melanie Gotta love icy boi right now
If Gideon had used better spells, he would've won. Knowing it all and knowing how to use it all are two different things. Radahn was great at beast hunting once again. Astel fight is my personal favourite!😢
Borealis's entrance on my first playthrough was genuinely thrilling. Walking across this frozen lake, all of a sudden this wintry fog-storm rolls in, wtf is happening, then an ice dragon appears. So cool
Yeah, dragon action! Can you design a dragon that combines the abilities of many dragons and maybe pseudo dragons? Like rot breath, lightning rain and magma, etc?
The fact borealis screams were making him over power nihill tells alot bc thats an outer gods power he over came with mild difficulty placi shall make him the next dragon lord
Video idea: can any ng+7 boss survive Rick and his friends? Using reskins would be a little boring, so I recommend using unique soldiers like exiles, vulgar militia, or other soldiers like that.
I just realized there's actually a lot of options for this: in adition to exiles and vulgar militia, we have curved sword beastmen, skeleton dude, teleporting mausoleum soldier(kind of a reskin but has teleportation), erdtree guardians, and kaiden sellsword A lot of these have minor variations, but I feel like just using the variant that is usually the weakest would fit best
as godfrey began to open his domain "pure hands" borealis shrunk back in fear, Godfrey asked him " Are you the freezing fog because you're Borealis, or does being Borealis make you the freeaing Fog. Godfrey then finished borealis and began massacring the local jelly fish population

Pretty much when Astel calls up the big meteor storm attack and if you're a big enemy like Borealis, you're incredibly toasted.
@@daeryxaqueryxHe just looked at it and accepted his fate
Apparently his only weakness is blunt physical damage too
17:50 The whole Nihil Time was so epic and cool to see.
Finally! I just commented about how I saw no one talking about it. I stand corrected
Yeah, gotta love black horny boi
Ikr
Dang. The Godskins, Death Bird, Radahn, and Maliketh all had insane comebacks!! This has been by far one of the most gripping watches
Damage overtime go brrr
Godskin Noble just pulled one of the biggest comebacks I’ve ever seen.
Placi’s finisher was crazy. He made Borealis confused due to how he disappeared for far longer than expected and before he realized that the Dragonlord was plotting something, it was too late. Placi then just refuses to elaborate and leaves.

Godfrey was furious that Borealis had died "too early" despite having very nearly had his goose put on ice. Also it's been a while since he's had someone to genocide.
HAHAHAHAHA. Godfrey was truly _" Man literally too angry too die "_
I love how Maliketh almost killed him with just 1 combo, what a comeback.
Borealis looking at the sky after beating Radahn thought the sun was finally rising!...except it wasn't the sun.
17:54 so cool!
also, phase 2 Mohg is such a beast I love him
I think Godfrey has to learn how to do jellyfish hunting properly.
long time we haven't seen the Death CHAD Bird drop the super duper explosive ghostflame nuke clutch and obliterate the enemy
cool to see this move again
Ya mean the death ONE SHOT bird make a nuke 10x stronger then malenias and borealis some how survived it
Lansseax vs Borealis was like watching GOT except with Dragons. Taking to the skies!
But Placidusax gave a masterclass.
You mean Fortisax?
Whats GOT?
Morgott GoTnightkinging Borealis just before dying was kinda great.
R.I.P. for Radagon, that was almost a really cool victory. Just gonna have to settle for a moderately epic defeat. And then there's Placidusax swooping in and getting the awesome finisher that Radagon could've had.
Not Mohg and Borealis having a shouting match.

Common Rick, Soldier of God W.
Man, Fortissax just gets bullied in every video. I’d love to see you do one of him in his prime.
Yeeesss. I love him so much, but I know he's gonna lose every time. I need a Fortissax in his prime video please
The fire giant legit looked like an old man beating the hell out of a dog that bite his son
🤣🤣🤣
Messmer the Impaler will join these battles soon
Sure thing
Gideon throwing out Scarlet Aeonia from 50 feet away: 🤪
Borealis trying to track Astel's teleporting: 😵💫
3:12 that was so cool ! .
Radahn really smacked Borealis for all but one shot then *fucking beheaded him*.
Godfrey said I given thy courtesy enough!
The dragon roaring 3 times in a row with Gideon for no specific reason is so real, mf will just spam roar at low health so you can't get close enough to hit him, and then fly around shitting icicles on you until you die.
Just in case you didn't know, a new draconic power is available at the Cathedral of Dragon Communion
Thanks dude
That's all any of these bosses need, a new draconic power...
Let’s hope we get a dlc dragon that’s somehow on par with, if not better than our beloved dragonlord.
Gideon doing some sus stretches before the fight…
I love when you added squishy sound effect when fire giant does his attack xD
Gideon really had borealis on the ropes and threw so fucking hard with scarlet aeonia
Damn Elden beast got that win back in blood for Radagon
I was reading "Freezing Frog" and wondered why I couldnt recall any frog boss
Interesting fact, one of the only dragons in the game weak to strike damage and not pierce due to the thick ice that coats Borealis’ head and hide
I'm watching this while it's snowing after a long sunny winter. It feels good
I envy you.
Now imagine some of the more underrated bosses in the game like Ancient Dragon Lansseax, Moongrum, Margit the Fell, Bols Carian Knight or even the giant flower that beat Godrick in the Miquella’s Haligtree breach video as OP and amped up by B-Bear or some other mod that he finds.

Kuddos to Morgott on that spear sniper shot. Was pretty cool to see.
Thank you for all the time stamps.

Remember kids: when your axe fails let your fists do the talking
3:18 Morgott decided to snipe Borealis outta the sky
Something most gamers and NPC respect.
He tried to do the gwyn move
3:12 Reminds me of Night King killing Viserion in GoT
So fitting
1 Billionth Comment of: Let Rennala have her summons when out of her map
Must've drank water after inhaling two containers of icebreaker mints.
Borealis: why don't you just CHILL out bro?
Death Rite Bird: why don't you just DIE?
You know it’s insulting when the FIRE Giant kills the ICE Dragon without using fire
If you ever felt that awful Death Rite Bird's Explosive Ghostflame and the lingering fire damage was way overturned, here's the proof. Geez.
If Gideon had used better spells, he would've won. Knowing it all and knowing how to use it all are two different things.
Radahn was great at beast hunting once again.
Astel fight is my personal favourite!😢
13:38 The music transition here was great
19:01 LOL Radahn hiding Leonard underground is funny af.
Placi decided to fly off and get his new power from the cathedral post haste!
My boy Astel was on the ropes for a second there but at the borealis just accepted his fate
Bro was spamming on death rite bird then he Put flames on the ground for 2 Seconds to win
Borealis: strong start, weak finish.
Bruh, fire giant really went "quit that screaming" and bonked him out of it. Swear to god it was like he was trying to swat a fly out of the air
Im glad the late game bosses hate him as much as I do
Maliketh avoiding destined death as death himself lol
Borealis learned an important lesson I think, don't piss off the death rite bird via spam
Borealis's entrance on my first playthrough was genuinely thrilling. Walking across this frozen lake, all of a sudden this wintry fog-storm rolls in, wtf is happening, then an ice dragon appears. So cool
