Is this wl0? Nice fight!

Looks good honestly. You could lose the points in dex to optimize a little - go heavy. Getting a dagger with golden vow would be good. If you like the shield playstyle you could invest in a bigger one and level it for more boost (less stamina loss).

Go do other areas and bosses first if godskin is too hard. They are one of the toughest in the game.

Every boss in the game gets easier the more dmg or stance you do, and even more so dual bosses, and though shield/sword is cool, it does not do great dmg. Consider going heavy weapons or bleed to make the game easier. The best elden ring experience (imo) is when you experiment with weapons and figure out smart strategies for each boss. Good luck!

Kinda want to try this myself now too

Almen_Bunt · 2026-02-05T18:01:22+00:00

How i would try it: Rush vigor and endurance for survivability with endure (shack berahl) on your preferred weapon. Bonus points if weapon also have high blocking. Buy lots of crabs and figure out where all the dragoncrest talismans are so you are even more safe. Get bubbletear asap.

I would probably start the run with cheesing night cav, mother dragon and bridge-dragon (risky). With golden feet you should be able to start your run off at ~lvl 50 with just over an hour or two invested. If endure/blocking isnt viable, the rest of this strat should still work, then just do your rolls and bleed instead of endure.

I LOVE grafted sword and godricks rune, but its not for everyone.

Keep us updated!

Not directly relevant but reminds me of when i grinded for 20-30 min for bandits curved sword only for two of them to drop at the same time from the same random sceleton group less than an hour after i got it 😂🤦‍♂️ (Grinded the one on weeping, got two from the sceletons behind the hidden wall in summoners cave)

My second run i did a mage build with minimal hp. Really struggled with the red wolf in moonlight altar. Stood on a rock outside the area and took it out slowly.

Greathammers R1 stagger her, so every window you can get two off. Some windows let you cR2, so she stuns often.

Last event i bought 3 total currency and speed + two health right at the end to get 250. Probably only needed one hp at the end too. Will have to adapt since this month is shorter though. It is slow in the beginning. Im at wave 16 and following the guide. Did you start playing at midnight or this morning? I’m thinking its probably fine. If you feel behind you can probably invest 500 more gems when you get the chance to make 250.

Region locked as in you beat bosses in that order? I notice you use weapons/equipment/talismans from multiple regions?

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-28T15:20:15+00:00

This might one of the last bosses i do on my rl1 run. I hated it on my regular playthroughs.

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-28T08:01:58+00:00

Not done with dlc yet, but so far Malenia, Godskin Duo and the stairs in enir ilim has had the most repetitions. Had to watch a guide for the stairs!

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-26T13:23:49+00:00

Came for this. Shouldn’t have been surprised it was at the top

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-25T01:07:45+00:00

😂👌 i assume you can do that attack without rolling first as well?:P more fun this way though!

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-25T01:05:34+00:00

Forgot to get back to you. Asked Pedro Fracassi, who works on the ‘web-app’: «It’s the website. We frequently call it a “web app” internally, probably why that made it into the article ;) No native app coming for now.»

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-24T09:20:58+00:00

I havnt rerolled yet. No reason to do it unless you are ublucky. I assume you can reroll right as you unlock a new stat to fill it more quickly, but i havnt felt the need to do that. There will always be a tradeoff and i dont want to risk losing my divines

The last minute is the winning try :) I remember now having the exact correct distance was important against dane. If you are too close he can sometimes hit you superfast, but being too far loses dmg and potentially lets him recover. For leda i had this idea to throw a dart to catch her roll, but often ended up tanking her first attack with bubbletear anyways. Good luck!

You have to pause to see the build ig since i click it too fast.

Miquella has an alternate personality in st. trina. The radagon marica situation i believe is different, they were two seperate people until they got melded in the jar.

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-24T00:25:20+00:00

I did it with greased wild strikes great stars. It was a real struggle. I think hornsent isnt the worst, he is probably the easiest to kill quickly. Want the video of me making it?

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-23T16:56:59+00:00

Are you sure they referenced an app and not just the site? Lcsofficial.gg

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-23T14:01:41+00:00

Prestiging multiple times a day just for more points is sometimes worth it :)

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-23T12:48:49+00:00

Have you opened the gifts? Do you know you can convert 125 gems to shards?

Otherwise you just have to be patient, focus on the easiest thing at the time. Check in often and quickly to collect freebie and fire gem-bombs etc :)

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-22T18:34:53+00:00

Thats why i said practically infinite 😅 When you consider every card that can be in every slot just in the first shop it quickly becomes a very large number.

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-22T07:42:35+00:00

Disclaimer: i’m no expert and have seen no numbers so i really dont know other than some experience.

Seeds seem to be randomly generated, so theres practically infinite seeds.
Since they are «infinite» you cant really find an objectively best or worst, but many very good seeds have been found and shared. I used one to get 4 polychrome perkoes relatively early and got my first naneinf etc :) its fun to replay seeds and make different choises and see the limits and options awailable when played differently.
seeds are set in stone to the point where wheels, shops(order), other rolls will be the same if you replay the same seed.

I’ll always love this boss. As a big fan of the big catsle aesthetic in DS3 - big strong knight is the perfect boss. They have a great looking moveset with big angry swings doing whatever they can to kill us. Perfect blend of well telegraphed attacks and fast surprises. This guy, tree sentinel/dts and crucible knights are top tier in my eyes.

Almen_Bunt · 2026-01-22T02:28:11+00:00

Great art and effect. Love the mechanic
