Staggers in Dark Souls 3 more or less gave you an extra R1 instead of a riposte, ripostes in DS3 usually required a parry or headshots. Elden Ring's boss posture is meant to reward an aggressive playstyle, I think with some tweaking Midir could be balanced very well for such a design.
1:52 Actually really liked that moment lol. Midir seems so curious towards the blue orb and inspects it. Then he looks so surprised when Rennala pops up out of nowhere. .... Only for her to get mauld to death in 2 seconds for scaring Midir like that.
For anyone surprised by how much poise damage Midir does, remember that this guy’s fire breath can instantly stagger insane units like Yhorm and the Demon Prince
Was honestly surprised that Midir survived most of them until I thought about the stagger in Elden Ring. The differences in the games definitely are something considering I never had an issue with Midir, but had an issue with almost all of Elden Ring bosses until I fought them a few times

For anyone who is wondering Midir fire and dark attacks (laser) deals 999 poise damage and his regular attacks probably deals over a 100 poise damage ber hit this is his natural strength and why he is very notorious in dark souls 3. His poise is 0 and can be poise broken only by lowering his health to 30% and exclusively dealing damage to his head (the only boss that I have seen stagger him before is yhorm and that is very rare) Looks like Midir laser deal holy damage seeing how little damage it does to elden beast and maliketh.

“I came here to test myself against the dread Dragonlord Placidusax, yet now I find myself standing before his killer… A Dragon far and away unlike any I have seen before. I must tread lightly.”
And when Midir seems to see the toxic flower and when he moves away it seems that he also does so with caution to do his multiple laser beam attack. And when he uses his multiple laser beam attacks, Malenia doesn't care and rushes towards him. Like, "Who is the afraid one now, Midir? Just wait for me to get to where you are."
@@hkiolo474she is not. She is cheater. As in lore (with Radan) as in gameplay. If there is not her "vampire" technique and no dance, she would be dead against biggest number of bosses. I mean just take from her or regen of hp or water dance, just one of this, and she is done. She is not really great balanced boss. Godwyn yes, Maliketh yes, Placidusax yes,Radan yes. Even Godskin duo are better. So she is "boss" because of 2 thing and her rotten strike and the start of 2 phase.
Maliketh defeating Midr with his signature attack and finishing Midir off by striking him from behind after dodging his charge, and then following it up with a triumphant roar as Midir collapsed, was probably the coolest moment in all of these Versus videos I've ever seen. But I'm not even going to TALK about the level of disrespect Midir gave the Godskin Duo.
The fact that Midir only lost to Maliketh and Malenia goes to show how strong of a boss he is. He's big and hits like a truck, his fire breath attack is enough to break all bosses stances is crazy.
Better designed too. I actually hate Maliketh’s fight, and Malenia’s fight is neat but not quite worth the payoff of the Haligtree. I love that whole section of game, minus the shitty snowfield. Once Maliketh dies though the game goes back to being fun. Midir, Gael, and the Ringed City are just From though. Nothing else carries that same sense of both existential doom and overbearing power that frightened even the gods.
@@joetorres4810Its not really cheap. Remember, this is the DLC Boss. I can imagine when Elden Ring DLC is finished, there are more boss coming to give the bigger challenge, just like Fromsoft always deliver from another DLC in previous game.
I never found Midir hard (think 6 attempts for me first win?) but DAMN he’s a well made fight. Awesome moveset, and he’s the first big four legged boss that discourages standing under him or smacking the legs. You stand in front of him. That where you want to be, anywhere else you can’t really damage him. Such a simple concept but damn it made the fight amazing. Not like Sif or Rat Authority where you could take a nap under them. Actually on that note Kalameet and Sinh were fantastic too. Fromsoft either makes crap dragon bosses or awesome dragon bosses lol, no in between.
Apparantly From is using the same engine to make their games. Thus it's possible to import assets from other titles. This also Works with armored core 6 assets.
Same engine, like how you can mod stuff across titles built in Unity, or how Garry’s mod exists and is cross compatible with essentially anything built in the Half-Life 2 engine
Yeah it's because ds3 was balanced on a basically non existent poise system so the values are insanely high, the devs apparently didn't want you to facetank midir's attacks so they just made his fire and laser attacks do 999 poise damage
I miss facing Midir, in the Souls saga he was the Boss I was defeated the most, he is pure pressure and not PoiseBreak, it was definitely the final challenge of a trilogy
Ikr? My god it was a pure nightmare I only ever felt so depressed was fighting him..malenia and trying to solo fatalis from mhw Heck i even argue fatalis was the hardest probably literally midir on fkcin steroid
@@Tau_Aquila took me 2 tries on him(i killed myself on the first fight bcoz he died way to quickly and i wanna relive the epic phase 3 again) i have always find humanoid bosses way easier bcoz of how predictable they are There was a community ranking too...and they voted midir 1st as the hardest boss even across ALL from software games(except sekiro and ER i think)
@@purehollow nope even if it hit his head worst that would have happened was he goes into phase 2. Outcome wouldn’t have changed at all. Like I said he has very high fire resistance.
It's amazing to think that Midir literally solos Elden Ring if it wasn't for our favorite Destined Doggo and Malenia. Man Maliketh is the GOAT in my eyes.
@@virael3801 Why should it be possible tho? The player's grab attacks (lifesteal fist and inescapable frenzy) don't work on bosses either and just like the player Godfrey is a tarnished too so I think it's fitting that he also can't grab bosses.
@@Demokaze Godfrey with working grabs is just the standard for BvB battles because he's nerfed without them. Lorewise, he should be able to grab 'most' bosses since he has the strength to obliterate the concrete floor with his barehands, but I'll say Midir wouldn't be one of them.
I mean, Mohg has really high physical damage. On NG+7 he deals about twice damage with single attack of Trident compare to Malenia for example. The thing is that he was brutally stunlocked by Midir.
12:17 Maliketh triumphant roar is perfectly timed after slaying Midir with the air to ground dashing attack cinematic asf Also Midir actually fights like a lore accurate dragon so badass all of these fights are awesome
Extremely funny how Midir will casually stunlock literally any boss ever. I think part of the reason Malenia was able to win, beyond the usual factors like her lifesteal and Waterfowl, was because a) her staggers are very short, and b) half her attacks have hyper armor, and thus she can't be staggered out of them except by bleed/frostbite procs. Maliketh, on the other hand, he was mostly the usual business re: a shitzillion damage and also mobility, though Holy and Dark being the same damage type (just reskinned in ER) helped him a lot with the laser too.
@@PantheKaiMidir’s poise damage makes perfect sense. He’s a big ass Elder Dragon, and in Dark Souls you’re supposed to actually learn a bosses move set, when to roll, when to block, when to dodge and when to attack. The aggressive play style of Elden Ring will get you absolutely destroyed in Dark Souls, while the more strategic play style of Dark Souls means you’ll never get attacks off in Elden Ring.
Placidussax is the worst offender in that regard. His nuke attack has a massive windup, stops the whole soundtrack... for a single tick of 700 damage. The flashiest "RUN AWAY" attack in the game does less damage than most of the regular mobs in Farum Azula. It needs a buff.
Seeing Midir clean house like this made me feel a lot better about facing him on ng+7 and dying like mad all those years ago. He his a crazy strong and awesome boss that i found myself cheering for in this vid. 💪🏻
Darkeater Midir after his defeat at the hands of the Ashen One fell into a deep slumber were he dreamed of a far land, in his dream, he would challenge the mighty of this land and become Elden Lord... the end
Ah, Midir. With his infinite poise damage flames, lasers, and humanities. His melee is no slouch either. Around 100 poise per swipe. Immune to every status effect, resistant to dark and fire, takes full damage only on his head, has infinite poise, has wide attacks, and is generally an asshole. Honestly thought Fire Giant could take it. Maliketh seems to be RNG based. Nobody expected Malenia to lose.
Makes sense.. I guess it's probably the closest 'dark' equivalent in Elden Ring, considering certain 'dark' attacks in that game deal Holy damage like the Destined Death stuff.
"Darkeater Midir VS All Bosses". Alternate Title: "Visualizing the differences in Boss Poise between Dark Souls 3 and Elden Ring". Seriously while this video was fun on its own I would be interested to see how Midir would fare if his Poise was changed to work like Elden Ring's. He actually does have a Stagger Animation so it could probably be done. At the very least I would be interested in seeing this with his Poise Damage reduced to more appropriate values.
@kafelca Malenia is garbage anyways... I truly would rather "fight" the Bed of Chaos every single day for the rest of my life than have to fight Malenia again. I'm not even saying that because I struggled with the fight. I didn't. It was a second try win for me like 4 days after the game came out.... Mimic Tear and Sword of Night and Flame was just way too easy to cheese the hell out of her, and I'll never fight her again. I hate everything about that boss, and every time I see her in one of these boss v boss videos I hate her even more each time.
A Dark Souls boss vs Elden Eing boss video is exactly what I've been waiting for! PLEASE MAKE MORE!!! These fights are so cool and I'd love to see all the possible fights come to fruition!
😂was that ever in doubt??? Maliketh will kill anything within 12 hits because of his insane regular dam and percentage hp damage. If he does his flying destined death attack its 50% to 60% of any hp bar gone 😂😂
@@lordteensie6156also against bosses it stacks, for whatever reason, it doesn’t against the players though, maliketh is very op, and fitting as well due to lore reasons
Malikath has no reason being this damn cool. mans killed the so far unkillable dragon. and then roared in victor. Like i can just imagine him saying some shit like "You prayed for death. so i delivered it"
Midir is my favorite of any FromSoft boss, it was absolutely delightful to see him dominate like this. Just as a comment, though, I would definitely not have selected Holy as the analogue to DS3's Dark. The Dark is the polar opposite of the established church in the Souls games, and is certainly closer to Magic than any other elemental damage. Alternatively, it could have just been put in as Physical, for which there is precedent! In Dark Souls 1, "dark damage" dealing weapons simply dealt physical damage, as there was no fourth damage type. Legendary content from you, good sir! Keep up the good work!
Love how the Amygdala mechanic of “You hit my legs, you deal negative damage” can stand up to even Radahn’s meteor. Although it does really show how much damage Radahn can do that even with it hitting Midir’s legs, he still took that much damage
I appreciate that the fire giant immediately adopted those dark souls strats

Made me realise 2 things :
1 : Midir seems very smart as a boss, he dodges a lot of attacks and acts like a beast
2 : Elden ring bosses are generous in term of poise, they easily get stunned
Staggers in Dark Souls 3 more or less gave you an extra R1 instead of a riposte, ripostes in DS3 usually required a parry or headshots. Elden Ring's boss posture is meant to reward an aggressive playstyle, I think with some tweaking Midir could be balanced very well for such a design.
Its more that Midir's attacks come out faster than most bosses and have the most stun. And damage
they only get easily stunned if you're doing ds3 levels of poise dmg
@@sibren9874 If its humanoid in any way in Dark Souls, it can be riposted.

It would go about the same, Gael's resistances are INSANE.
Why? Gael isn't nearly as strong
@@stompingpeak2043He's super aggressive though.

@@kaylenwashington7925 yet in real game tells you Gael is a chump in comparison. None of this is real anyway. It's just a cool video.
20:23
I love this part, Malenia stops running as Midir roars at her and opens his wings, she seems scared
“I came here to test myself against the dread Dragonlord Placidusax, yet now I find myself standing before his killer… A Dragon far and away unlike any I have seen before. I must tread lightly.”
lol that’s a massive reach. Malenia just likes to edgewalk. Her first phase is passive.
And when Midir seems to see the toxic flower and when he moves away it seems that he also does so with caution to do his multiple laser beam attack. And when he uses his multiple laser beam attacks, Malenia doesn't care and rushes towards him. Like, "Who is the afraid one now, Midir? Just wait for me to get to where you are."
And she won LoL
@@hkiolo474she is not. She is cheater. As in lore (with Radan) as in gameplay. If there is not her "vampire" technique and no dance, she would be dead against biggest number of bosses. I mean just take from her or regen of hp or water dance, just one of this, and she is done. She is not really great balanced boss. Godwyn yes, Maliketh yes, Placidusax yes,Radan yes. Even Godskin duo are better. So she is "boss" because of 2 thing and her rotten strike and the start of 2 phase.
Maliketh defeating Midr with his signature attack and finishing Midir off by striking him from behind after dodging his charge, and then following it up with a triumphant roar as Midir collapsed, was probably the coolest moment in all of these Versus videos I've ever seen.
But I'm not even going to TALK about the level of disrespect Midir gave the Godskin Duo.
The fact that Midir only lost to Maliketh and Malenia goes to show how strong of a boss he is. He's big and hits like a truck, his fire breath attack is enough to break all bosses stances is crazy.
Better designed too. I actually hate Maliketh’s fight, and Malenia’s fight is neat but not quite worth the payoff of the Haligtree. I love that whole section of game, minus the shitty snowfield. Once Maliketh dies though the game goes back to being fun.
Midir, Gael, and the Ringed City are just From though. Nothing else carries that same sense of both existential doom and overbearing power that frightened even the gods.
I think it shows how cheap the elden Ring bosses are. Midirs health was just evaporated lol
@@joetorres4810Its not really cheap. Remember, this is the DLC Boss. I can imagine when Elden Ring DLC is finished, there are more boss coming to give the bigger challenge, just like Fromsoft always deliver from another DLC in previous game.
And maliketh not beat him due to the excessive health drain
I never found Midir hard (think 6 attempts for me first win?) but DAMN he’s a well made fight. Awesome moveset, and he’s the first big four legged boss that discourages standing under him or smacking the legs.
You stand in front of him. That where you want to be, anywhere else you can’t really damage him. Such a simple concept but damn it made the fight amazing.
Not like Sif or Rat Authority where you could take a nap under them.
Actually on that note Kalameet and Sinh were fantastic too.
Fromsoft either makes crap dragon bosses or awesome dragon bosses lol, no in between.
When Midir just ate Radahn's meteor attack like it was nothing, I was like: 😳
*Proceeds to be rizzed*
And he just farted to finish radhan off
The way Maliketh roars after killing Midir and how him kill it is just epic
I was waiting for you died text xd ..
The new dlc tralier just dropped and I need a boss battle between Midir and the red dragon of Shadow of the erdtree
At 1:18, Midir took the phrase 'fight fire with fire' to a whole new level.
Midir vs Placidusax is a fight I’ve long wanted to see. The outcome certainly didn’t disappoint
Placids attacks felt like they were a bit on the weak side
The outcome was disappointing
Didn't see Lazer clash very disappointing
if only placi was in his prime :(
“Dragonlord my ass”
This is a programming masterpiece. Programming bosses from DIFFERENT GAMES into Elden Ring is beyond awesome
Apparantly From is using the same engine to make their games. Thus it's possible to import assets from other titles. This also Works with armored core 6 assets.
For all we know, the one making these videos could be working for FROM.
Same engine, like how you can mod stuff across titles built in Unity, or how Garry’s mod exists and is cross compatible with essentially anything built in the Half-Life 2 engine
Sadly the poise is a real disadvantage
Maliketh sliding by, finishing Midir, then roaring as Midir falls is pretty damn awesome.
You don’t fuck with Destined Death
Maliketh fucking massacred him holy shit. Being the highest hp boss in DS3 really screwed him over lmao.
@@dardardarnerfor sure in this video he won, but in this other video Midir won 5/6 times.
@@dudeman7826 the lm how come in the other video he beat 5/6 Maliketh?
@@minoas-sunbrorng
10:48 It seems there is a new dragonlord in the lands between, and he speaks the word of the abyss
3:08 Radahn took “try finger but hole” to a whole new level 💀
Sir Gideon calling midir a tarnish but answered with a laser is hilarious hahahahaha
Midir: tf did you just call me!?
I forgot how big Midir was. And the boss version we fight is a smaller model of the bridge version as well. So he is absolute massive.
the amount of stance damage is ridiculous though
That is his DS3 Stance damage he did this to all bosses in DS3 as well
They had a lot higher stance values in DS3 as 1 claw did not stagger anyone afaik@@GrandLynx-kp2zi
Yeah it's because ds3 was balanced on a basically non existent poise system so the values are insanely high, the devs apparently didn't want you to facetank midir's attacks so they just made his fire and laser attacks do 999 poise damage
It seems he can't be staggered either.
DS3 bosses dont have a posture meter like in Elden Ring
The final hit from maliketh being a crazy slide spin slash only for him to return the death roar with his own of victory. So cool.
I miss facing Midir, in the Souls saga he was the Boss I was defeated the most, he is pure pressure and not PoiseBreak, it was definitely the final challenge of a trilogy
Ikr? My god it was a pure nightmare
I only ever felt so depressed was fighting him..malenia and trying to solo fatalis from mhw
Heck i even argue fatalis was the hardest probably literally midir on fkcin steroid
I agree except for the final challenge Part. I Def think gael is harder
Summoning online with him felt like a raid boss
@@Tau_Aquila took me 2 tries on him(i killed myself on the first fight bcoz he died way to quickly and i wanna relive the epic phase 3 again) i have always find humanoid bosses way easier bcoz of how predictable they are
There was a community ranking too...and they voted midir 1st as the hardest boss even across ALL from software games(except sekiro and ER i think)
Same
The Power of an archdragon
Of the one who devoured the abyss itself is not to be underestimated
I was surprised he manages to tank radahns meteor attack.
He didn't even care turning to finish Radahn off. He just killed him with a darkess infused "fart".
I’m not. Midir is super resistant to fire and Radahn’s meteor is fire. Mohg can rank it the same way.
Tbh it almost seems like he only got hit with the tail end of the attack
It's because he wasn't facing it, if it hit head it would have been insta kill
@@purehollow nope even if it hit his head worst that would have happened was he goes into phase 2. Outcome wouldn’t have changed at all. Like I said he has very high fire resistance.
Elden Ring bosses: *esists*
Darkeater Midir: Fuck you.
It's amazing to think that Midir literally solos Elden Ring if it wasn't for our favorite Destined Doggo and Malenia. Man Maliketh is the GOAT in my eyes.
Was really hoping Godfrey would grab and launch Midir into the sky
*Godfrey proceeds to launch a fucking 1k Tons of a dragon into non-existence
I'm guessing it's still not possible for imported bosses to get grabbed
Midir can't eat either so fair i guess. But, yeah was hoping for it too
@@virael3801 Why should it be possible tho? The player's grab attacks (lifesteal fist and inescapable frenzy) don't work on bosses either and just like the player Godfrey is a tarnished too so I think it's fitting that he also can't grab bosses.
@@Demokaze Godfrey with working grabs is just the standard for BvB battles because he's nerfed without them.
Lorewise, he should be able to grab 'most' bosses since he has the strength to obliterate the concrete floor with his barehands, but I'll say Midir wouldn't be one of them.
Poor Mohg, having by far the highest fire resistance among Remembrance Bosses, still absolutely destroyed by Midir.
I feel as though most of it is because Midir didn't take ANY bleed damage, which really harms the amount of damage he can do
Midir, like a lot of ds3 bosses is immune to bleed. It's why bleed sucks in ds3
I mean, Mohg has really high physical damage. On NG+7 he deals about twice damage with single attack of Trident compare to Malenia for example. The thing is that he was brutally stunlocked by Midir.
If he had the true Nihil things would have been different
@@suchar7175owh no...midir on NG 7+ is actually one of the insane scaling(he literally hit over 12k damage with 1 combo) ever aside from yhorm
These are the most epic fights I’ve ever seen, darkeater is truly the strongest dragon out there.
Ancient dragon in ds2 tho ...
@ptphu6964 pretty sure midir is a descendant of the ancient dragon's but he's all juiced up on the abyss so he's probably stronger
every enemy just gets staggered in one hit, its just ds3 has different mechanics
@@pastesir3025 lore wise sure. Gameplay wise tho...
@@mum-yournah midir 1 hit stagger anything in dark soul 3 too
I say it is pretty accurate
09:06 This is a secret Godzilla battle. Midir took strong inspiration from Shin Godzilla while Placidusax is an homage to King Ghidorah. Epic.
12:17 Maliketh triumphant roar is perfectly timed after slaying Midir with the air to ground dashing attack cinematic asf
Also Midir actually fights like a lore accurate dragon so badass all of these fights are awesome
23:58 that side step into backflip dodge combo was clean af
true
That really was clean
Extremely funny how Midir will casually stunlock literally any boss ever. I think part of the reason Malenia was able to win, beyond the usual factors like her lifesteal and Waterfowl, was because a) her staggers are very short, and b) half her attacks have hyper armor, and thus she can't be staggered out of them except by bleed/frostbite procs.
Maliketh, on the other hand, he was mostly the usual business re: a shitzillion damage and also mobility, though Holy and Dark being the same damage type (just reskinned in ER) helped him a lot with the laser too.
Maliketh fights are way more fun than Malenia ones
Maliketh permanently loses HP while Malenia just goes Hurr durr life steal spam
That and Melania can “choose” when to stagger, which is fucking wild to me
i think melania is just to small and maliketh does way to much damage
Soo u are complaining because midir cheat(no make sense poise dmg) was weaker than malik and malenia own cheats? 😂
@@PantheKaiMidir’s poise damage makes perfect sense. He’s a big ass Elder Dragon, and in Dark Souls you’re supposed to actually learn a bosses move set, when to roll, when to block, when to dodge and when to attack. The aggressive play style of Elden Ring will get you absolutely destroyed in Dark Souls, while the more strategic play style of Dark Souls means you’ll never get attacks off in Elden Ring.
i absolutely love how, unlike most other giant fromsoft bosses, midir hits as hard as he is big
Placidussax is the worst offender in that regard. His nuke attack has a massive windup, stops the whole soundtrack... for a single tick of 700 damage. The flashiest "RUN AWAY" attack in the game does less damage than most of the regular mobs in Farum Azula. It needs a buff.
Fromsoft balancing. It also doesn't do the worthy poise damage to other mobs.
@@glorytoukraine5524It should be as devastating as Radahn’s meteor attack with how much buildup it has. It gives you so much time to run away.
@@Ann1ka2425 and unlike the meteor, you can cancel it with a stance break. So it doesn't even have the inevitability going for it.
@@Ann1ka2425should honestly just be a one-shot if you’re daft enough to be within the blast radius when it goes off.
I like Midir a lot.
The best dragon ever.
2nd best. First is Albi, the Racist Dragon.
@@fromthegamethronewho's that

I love how when the Godskin Duo appears Midir is just standing there like "aight y'all are under new management"
Seeing Midir clean house like this made me feel a lot better about facing him on ng+7 and dying like mad all those years ago. He his a crazy strong and awesome boss that i found myself cheering for in this vid. 💪🏻
Midir:"You look like the ashen one, time for revenge! "
Proceeds to charge laser attack
Gideon:"Wait wha-"
Darkeater Midir after his defeat at the hands of the Ashen One fell into a deep slumber were he dreamed of a far land, in his dream, he would challenge the mighty of this land and become Elden Lord... the end
Midir deserved good ending
The fire giant playing like the tarnished by just spamming rolls
Dark Souls bosses: I am a unstopable force
Elden Ring bosses: my poise is broken
Ah, Midir. With his infinite poise damage flames, lasers, and humanities.
His melee is no slouch either. Around 100 poise per swipe.
Immune to every status effect, resistant to dark and fire, takes full damage only on his head, has infinite poise, has wide attacks, and is generally an asshole.
Honestly thought Fire Giant could take it. Maliketh seems to be RNG based. Nobody expected Malenia to lose.
PLease make the same video for Slave Knight Gael...Please...
Midir against mohg be like : bleed what is bleed? Never heard of it
From the looks of it his damage got changed from dark to holy, considering how miniscule damage Maliketh took from it
Makes sense.. I guess it's probably the closest 'dark' equivalent in Elden Ring, considering certain 'dark' attacks in that game deal Holy damage like the Destined Death stuff.
I think it's just a general "Fourth element value".
I imagine the same thing would happen for Coral damage in Armored Core
Any death sorcery or incantation is the closest equivalent to "dark" is ds universe
Dunno, seems like bosses who are holy resistant still took butt loads of damage from him.
"Darkeater Midir VS All Bosses". Alternate Title: "Visualizing the differences in Boss Poise between Dark Souls 3 and Elden Ring".
Seriously while this video was fun on its own I would be interested to see how Midir would fare if his Poise was changed to work like Elden Ring's. He actually does have a Stagger Animation so it could probably be done. At the very least I would be interested in seeing this with his Poise Damage reduced to more appropriate values.
Well, even in ds3 his poise damage was the maximum value, it wasn’t balanced there either lol
This moment it so good. 29:08
Hoarah drops to one knee, Midir lets him stand up, roar right in his face, then steamrolls him.
Midir is the best dragon boss in any FromSoft game. Simple as that.
Malenia is not a dragon boss so tf are you talking about.@@kafelca
@@DurroftheHurr oh sorry didn't read the word "dragon"
@kafelca Malenia is garbage anyways... I truly would rather "fight" the Bed of Chaos every single day for the rest of my life than have to fight Malenia again. I'm not even saying that because I struggled with the fight. I didn't. It was a second try win for me like 4 days after the game came out.... Mimic Tear and Sword of Night and Flame was just way too easy to cheese the hell out of her, and I'll never fight her again. I hate everything about that boss, and every time I see her in one of these boss v boss videos I hate her even more each time.

Holy crap Maliketh's damage is absurd.
😂was that ever in doubt??? Maliketh will kill anything within 12 hits because of his insane regular dam and percentage hp damage. If he does his flying destined death attack its 50% to 60% of any hp bar gone 😂😂
Destined Death always dominates in these boss vs boss matchup videos because it doesn't do fixed damage, it drains a % of the total HP pool.
@@kayce851 yeah I guess I didn't realize that, I thought it was just his debuff effect that did percent damage
@@lordteensie6156also against bosses it stacks, for whatever reason, it doesn’t against the players though, maliketh is very op, and fitting as well due to lore reasons
And that is what makes Maliketh vs bosses fight Satisfying

Bro, Radahn got done dirty with Midir finishing him off via ass blasting.
Malikath has no reason being this damn cool.
mans killed the so far unkillable dragon. and then roared in victor. Like i can just imagine him saying some shit like
"You prayed for death. so i delivered it"
Maliketh is just the goat 🐐
Maliketh did a winner scream like "YEAAHHHHHHHH"
Midir is my favorite of any FromSoft boss, it was absolutely delightful to see him dominate like this.
Just as a comment, though, I would definitely not have selected Holy as the analogue to DS3's Dark. The Dark is the polar opposite of the established church in the Souls games, and is certainly closer to Magic than any other elemental damage. Alternatively, it could have just been put in as Physical, for which there is precedent! In Dark Souls 1, "dark damage" dealing weapons simply dealt physical damage, as there was no fourth damage type.
Legendary content from you, good sir! Keep up the good work!
It's a programmer trying his best with what he has.
Midir really said to placidusax
" cheap copy"
Radagon trying to deflect midirs laser and fire and mdir literally stopping radagons hammer smashing third phase is just funny hahaahahahahahaha
Radagon: So anyway I started parry-
Midir: Parry this, filthy casual.
Mohg looking on in horror as Nihil does f**king nothing to Midir’s healthbar…
The new Dragonlord of Elden Ring is here
Midir vs Placidusax made me think of Godzilla vs King Ghidorah. Would love to see an upscaled Dragonlord so we get a laser showdown.
Love how the Amygdala mechanic of “You hit my legs, you deal negative damage” can stand up to even Radahn’s meteor. Although it does really show how much damage Radahn can do that even with it hitting Midir’s legs, he still took that much damage
