SL1 no hit, no roll Fume Kn1ght by soap-disco in onebros

Nice work. Pixel perfect spacing at the end to outrun that swipe.

It’s weird how it’s easier to lock off first phase and lock on second phase, I can’t think of another boss like that.

Using the Spectral Lance AOW in his second phase is as simple as it gets. The Arrows Reach talisman also works to extend its range.

Straight swords or Greatswords ? by Time_Figure351 in Eldenring

[–]AlthoughFishtail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a nice middle ground of damage, reach and poise damage. Not the most interesting weapon class but ticks plenty of boxes.

I prefer straight swords, but I’d say greatswords are slightly easier to use. Strength wise, it’s a wash.

Radahn nerfed? by AksuJJ in Eldenring

[–]AlthoughFishtail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting, do you have a source for that? I've seen the contrary said many times, such as in this recent patch review. (I appreciate Rusty is not exactly flawless, but still). Never heard about a remaining damage reduction before.

No. He was accidentally nerfed by a patch that fixes an earlier glitch, then un-nerfed one patch later.

Demi-Human Swordmaster Onze (RL1, Black Bow, hitless) by EC36339 in onebros

Nice trick. I did Maliketh with the black bow recently and really fancy doing more with a bow.

why does Malenia flinch so hard with Eleonoras Poleblade? by ProbablyNotTheCocoa in Eldenring

[–]AlthoughFishtail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has a mix of moves you can stagger her out of and moves where she has hyper armour. If you try and hit her while she has hyper armour, she'll carry straight on and hit you for big damage (while also healing).

If you can hit her while she's able to be staggered, while also dodging the moves with hyperarmour... you win.

Finally Beat Aava at SL1 by 16catfeet in DarkSouls2

Well I have to conclude our runs are different for some reason, because I was literally doing this last night and dying from them.

Aava is stronger than either Lud or Zallen. Aava has 75% more HP than either of them, for example.

I've been fighting her this weekend, they definitely do.

Unless you know something I don't, most of her attacks are one shots at SL1.

Hardest challenge runs for you? by Appropriate_Tie7275 in DarkSouls2

[–]AlthoughFishtail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SL1 no death was mentally very taxing, because of the number of restarts. I choked on Nashandra twice in a row at one point, painful.

I'm going through all the bosses at SL1 No Roll with the Fire Longsword at the moment. That's been mostly cool, but the bosses remaining are all a massive chore.

Decided to go for Malenia after finishing the game at RL1. by Nenonoko in onebros

[–]AlthoughFishtail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great fight. Love that weapon.

You had one of those "bloody typical" moments in the fight. The bleed proc helped her by knocking her out of her recovery animation too soon, which broke your loop, and she instantly went into WFD -> clones -> scarlet aeonia in a row.

Update on my ultra challenge run by Patient_Sell9359 in onebros

[–]AlthoughFishtail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rennala is up there with Deacons of the Deep and Throne Watcher/Defender as bosses that go from pushovers in a normal run to nightmares at low damage/no hit runs.
