A true STR/INT warrior.

He got very lucky

HE JUST LIKE ME FRRRRR

FAMILYYYYYY

TOGETHAAAA

Yeah I never played Ds3 but that rain attack looked so annoying Like I wanted Godfrey to Win so bad but nope. Then as I was watching the Melania fight I had no choice but to root for Her.

He buffed Aldrich too, he has less hp than godrick (in fact he has almost the same as Margit)

Don't forget Aldritch eaten orphan children, every time he dies it's making me feel better

Nothing is worse than Malenia's moveset and skills. Stealing life at every hit while havin superarmour is like playing GTA5 with cheats... only with more cinematic moves that is. Malenia is total shit

@@TheLOL4DUDE eh she’s not that hard her moveset besides waterfowl is easy to dodge for me. But even waterfowl I got used to now. It’s also super easy to stagger her and get critical hits on her. I had a harder time with the fire giant.

There's this weird thing where the boss' aggro is sometimes deactivated when Aldrich does his burrowing. It was there in DS3 bvb as well. This happened at the exact moment Mohg was about to Nihil. If you notice, the same thing happens in the Placidusax fight and in the Radagon fight.

@@Count.Saruman That's because when Aldrich burrows underground, he has an effect that prevents others from locking onto him.

Bruh I always thought he was a girl

@@chaossilvermoon but this makes sense against the player who can spot it instantly, not against bosses, it's a stupid advantage.

you are welcome!

I know right? At first I thought Rennala was kicking butt then I realized I was looking at the wrong health bar. She was lighting Aldrich up but it wasn't doing any damage....(or hitting when it should have)

@@DigitalHaze65536Aldrich hp is super buffed he wouldn’t survive against rennala very long.

thanks

thanks

The stupidest thing is that modded boss either don't have any poise or too high

@@crabking9223and usually buffed stats

Rykard would’ve devoured Aldrich 😂

@@iamMildlyUpsetWithMostOfYouTub Nah, Rykard and Aldrich would've been god-snacking buddies. "Togethaaaaa!!!"

"Full phase 2" doesn't exist, he only has 5K HP in the game. The health bar is just a visual presentation, it's a combined HP of both phases. If you combine Malenia's HP and give her only 1 health bar, she will still have 34k HP.

​@@johnt3500He wants Maliketh to heal up to full (i.e. 10k) when phase 2 begins, or otherwise just double his hp. I think that'd be unrewarding design- what I would do is give him a total of 15k hp and have him phase transition at 60% instead of 50%. The same effect, but feels more rewarding.

@@johnt3500 I literally wrote "10k hp" so dumbasses who disingenuously spam "his total health is 5k. Healthbar is just a visual representation" under any comment discussing maliketh's full health bar (when it is very clear what the comment is actually talking about) won't spam their retarded spiel. But you did it anyway, and without reading I might add. Same thing in a "demon of hatred vs all bosses" comment , where a guy was spamming this exact insincere take under a "maliketh full health bar" comment. And of course they brought up Malenia, just like you😂. I'm seeing a pattern here.

@@Count.Saruman yeah, i get what he means, just give Maliketh more HP. I just keep seeing these comments about him having "half health bar"... What matters is the actual HP value.

@@Count.Saruman I dont want maliketh to "heal to full" -since that would make him "stronger " in a sense than the game wants him to be (since he heals himself instead of just transforming). But him starting 2nd phase full health makes sense both lore/thematically and gameplay wise (although it wont be as hype) becuase he is essentially "getting serious from the start". This arguement doesnt apply to soemone like malenia or rykard, who are essentially given "second chances". I am not asking him to get "more health" (now watch as some people disingenously misinterpret this argurment to say that "all bosses should get more health" when thats not what I said at all ), but just that he gets serious from the beginning, sth he can perfectly do in lore and gameplay. So he has 10k hp (lore accurate), but pulls out the death rune right at the start (completely possible for him to do.)

Obviously not the is stock Aldridge 😅

I see that trend too. I'm going to dislike all of them. We want to see what would happen with the raw stats, not cheating on either side.

​@DigitalHaze65536 yeah like I've never fought this boss, but it literally melts through health in ways that basically makes the fights unfair. It clearly has massively buffed resistance to physical damage

​@DigitalHaze65536 it literally breaks GODFREY's stance in one hit

@@jaredgreathouse3672 I've beaten it in DS3 about 24 times. It's very mid, the only thing that is a threat is the rain of arrows. That would destroy any large boss quickly, but it seemed way too strong otherwise. To me it seemed like a big easy target that didn't have much health, all of a sudden it's a tank here?!

@DigitalHaze65536 I don't have an issue with the rain of arrows being threatening, but to melt through pretty much any bosses HP, you'd think it had Destined Death. Speaking of, it basically seemed to never be stunned, having a ridiculous pool of poise. It also seemed to be way too resistant to even basic physical damage. I get we have to do this cuz ER's bosses will generally have more HP and hit harder, but it's pretty overkill in this case

No? His arrowstorm was exactly this horrible in DS3 too.

@@Count.Saruman that’s the only thing accurate, look at the damage he’s doing to Renalla and she’s 80% resistant to magic.

@@Count.SarumanAldrich has less than 5k hp, look at how much he’s taking and you quickly see he’s buffed.

I will,

She has never known defeated

He has made him stronger so that he wins most fights.

You got to remember even back in dark souls 3 Aldrich's arrow storm was extremely broken. Meaning if it caught you most times your dead. But with that also being said it was extremely easy to dodge. The difference is bosses dont really have that ability to dodge on command like that and most bosses that that take the blunt force of Aldrich's arrow storm will die. With that being said, even back in ds3 look at Midir and Gael with extremely high health pools and resistences would either die or have the majority of their health gone in a split second due to his arrow storm.

@@vitocorleone2309 His arrow storm is strong, but he originally has low health and would generally die before using his ability efficiently, that's why the mod's author makes him stronger so he can use it and win most of the time.

I will.

He would lose to most of these bosses, he has very pitiful hp compared to er bosses (less than godrick)

@@iamMildlyUpsetWithMostOfYouTub not if he spams that

@@aresrivera9744 anything above renalla would kill him too quick for him to use it.

He wouldn’t, he’s buffed beyond belief.

since sfx, sounds, even the animation missing are quite same as those in Golden Age

@@CuttieEmerauld I asked one of the authors of Golden Age, and he said that this Aldrich was made by him.

@@chaossilvermoon makes sense, since everything even the speeding up is the same. shame for this author

yes

Eh? That matchup was a foregone conclusion regardless of rng. To beat Malenia, Aldrich would need to dodge Aeonia (it still deals damage even if you are immune to Rot), and use two arrowstorms in succession, the second immediately after dodging Aeonia. That's incredibly unlikely. Otherwise he just can't win. He doesn't have much hp, and is guaranteed to take one waterfowl in phase 1 which will halve his hp. Add to that the fact that Malenia is incredibly mobile, can hyperarmour through staggers, is damage-protected on her last bit of hp in phase 1 (i.e. she'll survive the first hit that would ordinarily kill her with 1 hp), and has quite likely the best dodging AI in the game.

Tbh I've never seen a match where malenia lose in this channel

@@Count.Saruman You make some good point but Aldritch uses the "following/tracking" version of arrow rain after he hits 40% hp. Malenia's waterfowl deals around 40% of his health. If he had above 50% health when he used the arrow spam, it would be the non-tracking variant, and would continue to hurt malenia after she hits him with aeonia (it deals around 300 flat dmg per second which is not as deadly as her rot ). Him being below 40% hp before using a arrow rain isnt a foregone conclusion. Infact it's very rare rng.

Other channels already did this fight, Malenia won in phase 1. Aldritch actually did well here by making her go into phase 2 when he was about to die.

​@@je-dm2zy Dude I've seen other videos where they fight, in most of them he can't even get to her phase 2. Just accept that he's really outmatched.
