Well, I tried for entire 2 days to beat him and learn his moves.
First time I beat him as Warrior, but I had Mist Raptor and uber damage, so I could trade with him and not learn every move.

Funny start, and I've never seen him spam gravity pull that much. Genius use of moon.

@joseandkris 23 күн бұрын

I think he spams it to counter ranged attacks like bows or spells. I noticed I can provoke some of his attacks in some fashion. Like that combo that starts with a stomp, if I go agressive and strike first, it usually starts that combo, which is easily punishable. Thanks, I used moon by accident and saw it negated his spell, and was like "this is neat" :)

@YourNameGotMeDemonitized 20 күн бұрын

Bro I seen him take it easy on others me he spams a lot why???? Why do some get an easy version but I get the spam every move that is broken to win? I won't give up but dang man I feel like I got the wrong dlc.

@bobdylanlovr69 20 күн бұрын

Dude all he does is the gravity pull on me, I’m a melee build but I use dash attacks and spacing so maybe it’s my proximity And I, also, was marveling at the genius use of the moon

@petercottantail7850 20 күн бұрын

when ever he was far away from me, including the start of the fight where he doesn't immediately lunge at me, i usually did a heavy attack to bait his corkscrew attack but sometimes he'd do gravity instead and it would get that bad where he just did gravity over and over. id say it's just rare rng considering how often he corkscrews instead

@joseandkris 20 күн бұрын

Could be, but I find gravity pull easy to dodge unless he really surprises me. Just don't be near him when dodging :)

Nice Counter with the Moon Spell. Had to change my Setup after Fighting him for 45ms. Used a shield and the Guts Sword with Gravity Thrust War Ash. I drank my flask before going in with No Physical Damage and Increase Damage Negation. So I can bring out my Mimic Tear. I used the Scarlett’s Flower Rott in the Beginning when he’s attacking my mimic Tear. And beginning of second Phase when he just stand there. But Shield does Help but you need lots of Stamina to take the punishment. I used the Stability Armor. It’s the one Knight you fight early in the DLC that’s in the Mausoleum. Took me around an Hour of Fighting him. Good luck to everyone. Cheers.

I quit my mage build in this dlc cause everything seemed to favour faith, ended up reallocating as a holy swordsman and breezing through the dlc with a blasphemous blade and the furnace golem summon (lvl 180 scadu level 17 spirit level 9)

I would say I didn't find it so hard as mage, only this boss, other I procced frost a lot. For Midra, I used Lucidity spell which negated a lot of his attacks :) gg

Nice work. I basically conceded defeat and ended up spamming impenetrable thorns 😐 It worked at least, buy wasn't too satisfying.

Outstanding job beating the BS boss. Tbh though, feels like bosses are so over powercrept with their Sekiro and Bloodborne-like moves but our characters still use the same chugging and roll animations. Half of the fight is just rolling and rolling animations with little to none openings. We really need a fresh gameplay on the player side

@joseandkris 7 күн бұрын

Hahaha thanks. Yes, my favorite games beside ER are Bloodborne and Sekiro 🤗 would love more of that anytime

So it normal to deal low damage to him. I was doing minimal damage with my backhand blades I taught I was missing scadutree levels. This boss is so hard I want to use my mimic so badly.

@joseandkris 20 күн бұрын

Depends on the weapon, my weapon does not do much dmg, as I rely more on ice procs and ash of war dmg. That was my main source of dmg, and light attacks and glintblades were just filler:)

@joseandkris thats what I'm doing I'm using frostbite but I just can't get pass the second phase I'm so tempted to use mimic.

This dlc brings in so much ds3 vibes including the last boss of the ds3 dlc. I just loved this but not as much as ds3 dlc. That boss is beautiful and Radhan comes in as a copy of that which I don’t mind but I prefer the original.

@joseandkris 16 күн бұрын

This fight reminds me of the Princes in DS3 base game, Lorian and Lothric on top of him. I think Miyazaki wanted to pay homage to that fight :)

Get that scadu to level 20. also what NG is this? I’m in ng+5 level 150 and currently in my second dlc playthrough

@joseandkris 8 күн бұрын

I only could get 18 during my exploration, I probably missed some under my nose :) First run I only got to 15, but that was strength and had easier time beating Radahn. This particular run is a regular new game, no NG+.

@LostUndertheSky 20 күн бұрын

I’m running as a mage. But that 2nd phase kills me. Can’t even get him down to 50% before dying. I’m gonna give the darkmoon and glintblade trio a try.

@joseandkris 20 күн бұрын

So yea, I spent a lot of time at 50%, and then when I got to 25% the first time, he went down quick. It's more about defence and survival then dmg. Some ppl can brutalize him I guess with OP builds.

Did you choose this weak magic and weapon for the challenge?

I chose it, but I don't think it's weak. I craft my builds and I have fun playing them. Perhaps I could have chosen Night Magics or smth else, but I don't like it thematically, this is what I liked :)
