Another good weapon that also requires 1 critical hit is the wing of astel and its ash of war Nebula. Really good too. But for that one standing at the back of the golem works better so you can hit both legs with the spread.
Thanks! I'd be curious to give that a shot as well. I bet there are some other builds with new equipment that can be done to shorten the fight as well, so I'll keep a look out as I collect more equipment.
You can definitely survive it with 60 vigor. He's grabbed me atleast 4 times the 2nd time I fought him. One of those fight everything went wrong. But I had the physical defense talisman and fire defense talisman. It took about 3/4 of my health
Thank you. THE absolute best of the dozens of videos on this subject I have seen (including Guru's). Short, sweet, and to the point. Subbed. Edit-holy crap, this works like a charm. Got him on the first try with one critical hit. Thank you. Now I can clear my backlog of these things.
Thanks! We try to keep it as concise as possible since we only have so much time in the day ourselves. Less time dragging out videos = more time having fun gaming after all
@@GuitarNerdist-Solverne BTW, your audio only came through the left ear of my headphones. I shared your video with a buddy, and he experienced the same thing. However, I've now killed every single Furnace Golem I've encountered and put on my "to-do" list, and so has he. Keep up the good work.
Using "Flame protection" pyro is very handy here. You can spam heavy attacks between it's legs, jumping from one to another while it's stomping, just stay more behind to keep safe from it's grabs. Also those fire points under rope, back of it's foots seems to be more vunerable ;*
Agreed. I only used the flame grant me strength buff at the beginning too, so using it more frequently may shorten the fight as well. Thankfully, I think the spread of the ghostflames from Death Poker's ash of war can that weak spot under the foot while hitting the other leg at the same time if you angle it right too.
Yeah, I should have tested it to confirm beforehand since I suspected that too, but just shows how much more OP this build can be when you improve that much more with stats + other talismans
he brushes off my deaths poker 10, kills my mimic tear, then kills me. then I tried mimic tear, deaths poker, and pest threads as did mimic. turned out we were the gnats
@@GuitarNerdist-Solverne aww, just bad at giants with huge health bars... labored over the fire giant too (but even he was easier than this furnace golem). so I was able to finish Elden Ring, though I struggled a lot; I imagine I'm out of my depths with the dlc. old guy, slowed reflexes, familiar story, yada yada
Love the strat but this mf is grabbing me from behind his right leg. Not anywhere near me. Love the bugs and off camera damage we have now. Big brain update to make the game hard 😅
@@DNYLNY Have to do it as he's getting up after his furnace is running again. It won't count if you do it when he is down or too soon before the furnace fired up.
"It will immediately kill you regardless of how much health you have" Speak for yourself lmao, you've got 40 Vigor and nothing defensive on your character. When I get grabbed it's a minor inconvenience. Even with just Flame Protect Me instead of Flame Grant Me Strength, you could probably survive it with 40 Vigor...maybe? (All your damage is magic so you're not getting anything from FGMS anyway) Also, pretty sure Godfrey Icon doesn't affect Ghostflame ignition. The animation may look like it's "charging" but it's not actually a chargeable skill
Yeahhh, I've corrected myself in a seprate youtube short on that part with the vigor, definitely surviveable: ruclips.net/user/shortsfJi7YvzoroQ?si=kGr7rlbBh8mFqPHp
my left ear enjoyed this

impenetrable thorns, carian sovereignty, palm blast, and flame spear on a colosal weapon might work for a 1 crit fight. good video

With 60 vigor i survived his grab attack whith a pixel hp
*I dont know if was a bug but only worked once
Hmm, I may have to put this to the test. See if it is capped at a certain damage level then. That's interesting though, I thought it was a 1 hit KO

@@Unknowngnosticgood to know. Thanks for confirming that!
Worked for me, my ashes died but I managed to live. Thanks a ton!

great tip!!!!! deaths poker literally obliterates the unarmored ones so hard like its nothing😂😂

With the dancing blades and dancers set you can easily out damage this as you can use the ash of war very consistently on their legs
damn death poker is really good
This method is great! I was previously using the flail cuz spin chain is amazing against it but the start up frames are so annoying.
This worked for me! thank you so much
Try to use raptor mists
Godfrey icon does not work with Death’s Poker since there is no part of the AoW you can charge

what abt RKR during crit? o.O
Ahh yes dot with frost..
I've been grabbed and survived... You just gotta have a lot of HP.

@@blakestevens8246 it's basically a battle of attrition, just gotta focus on the jumping part and you'll win in the end.
this doesnt work on head only damage able furnace golem, try make one for it
They can still be damaged other places and taken down. Just takes forever.

When he's down throu a hefty furnace pot in him and it's all over 😂
@@billymeyer7401 I've tried that once before and it didn't work for me for some reason, but may need to try that again
That didn't work for me. I threw 5 in his head when he was down and nothing happened. I think you have to be above them while they're standing.
