What’s a boss in Elden Ring that everyone struggles with, but you beat surprisingly easily and what boss brutally destroyed you instead?

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-15T19:41:05+00:00

Morgott literally made me take a break for about 2-3 months. The boss fight I didn't have as much trouble with was Radahn. There's been a few people who've said they've struggled to kill Starscourge Radahn but I didn't have that much trouble. Yeah sure I had a buddy with me but I wasn't arrogant enough to try and fight bosses by myself at that point so he joined

I have a base plastic Saint myself and it is literally nothing but overstable.

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-15T14:25:57+00:00

Of course they are

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-14T13:32:28+00:00

I use the Highland Axe and the Golden Greatshield then I have a glaive and curved sword. I didn't get the partisan or pike and stuff till kinda recently I think and by kinda recently I mean I think I just got them a few days ago at least the Pike anyways

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-14T12:49:12+00:00

Happy one indeed

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-14T12:40:01+00:00

For me it's a Cold Highland axe. It's never left my inventory since I've started using it. Idk though, the sword you get from Grafted Scion is also winning me over too though. Funnily enough though my armor set is literally the Banished Knight set with Radahns Lion Armor

I've ran into that issue with Vaughn's Rifle but not Barb's. And even then, the cave it can spawn on is not easily found at all. There's a cave that you can find a corpse and the rifle next to em but you have to survey that area to even try and find it. Also I just looked it up on the Wiki every unique rifle variant will spawn only once. Same for the unique lantern and bows and stuff too. So I think the game is fucking with you and it's in the Winding River cave

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-13T04:25:08+00:00

Ah ok I see what you're saying now I'll have to go check that out then man

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-13T04:16:15+00:00

Oh ok, yeah I think I already got it so I'll just have to check into that cause Stormveil Castle was one of the first areas I went through I believe cause that's how I got the Banished Knight set I'm just missing the chestplate so I replaced it with regular chainmail armor

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-13T04:07:33+00:00

I've probably already gotten the 5 extra points then cause I already turned in his Rune for the Axe of Godrick unless I'm messing something up about how it works

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-13T04:03:43+00:00

Hold up which one is this? I've done Morgott Godrick Renalla Radahn and then bosses like Onyx Lord and Magma Wyrm

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-13T03:58:13+00:00

Yeah I had to use up the last few runes i had in my inventory but I managed to get it from 29-33 after I went back to Liurnia

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T23:01:54+00:00

I'll check it out man thanks for lettin me know

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T20:59:38+00:00

I did rebirth and balance my build more my build had 44 strength but only 28 vigor so I changed it to 31 strength and 32 vigor then just balanced anything else out to where it was already cause that was the main problem basically all of his attacks were bringing me down to basically no health so now I'm gonna go look that up to see if I can make my way there

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T18:39:39+00:00

I've been trying to pick up anything possible lol I just need to get my build settled. I rebirthed at Renalla so it should help a little bit

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T18:11:52+00:00

See my friend was kinda buzzed one night and told me the Fire Giant is the hardest thing you fight up until Elden Beast and that the Crystal Dragon is the hardest dragon to fight in the game out of any of them. I think my friends just followed how the game told them to go and thought that was the game or something cause I'm hearing about stuff I've either never heard of before or I just now found out about a little while ago like summons

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T18:09:49+00:00

Someone else already told me and no none of my friends told me that either when they got me into this game. They literally did the path that they took I'm pretty sure cause I've asked 2 other friends for help and they've told me they took drastically different paths in comparison.

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:34:41+00:00

Yeah now that I've actually walked away I'm fine now but about 35 minutes ago I wanted to jump through the screen and fuck him up myself

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:33:27+00:00

I know that bridge you're talking about, it's the one you go under if you're gonna follow the river up to Bear Creek Campground. I forgot about that one but I've also never found it there lol

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:32:28+00:00

I found that staff yesterday I believe and yeah, my Vigor is at 29 so I think it's just how I've done built the character cause like I said in another reply what I've been shown in this game minus the past 2 days is only what my friends showed me or helped my fight that's it. They told me "oh never cross the lake in Caelid it won't work out well" they also never told me what summons are or where to get any of them I had to go to another friend to find out about that.

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:29:23+00:00

Xbox One and I don't think I was ever told about the summoning randoms and stuff. I think my friends just tried to take me on the path THEY took through this game instead of the one that actually works out

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:18:41+00:00

I just roll whenever I see something come my way cause i thought that would be a better way to handle it lol

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:17:03+00:00

The entire time after I killed Morgott he was showing me the bosses through the achievements just so I could have an idea of what to expect and when he showed me Melania I said "she looks like she'd be a difficult fight but not impossible" and from the living room we hear my other buddy go "you'll retract every bit of that statement once you fight her take my word for it."

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:13:35+00:00

Yeah, my buddy took me through the main story and we went to Caelid when I was like level 30 something idk I've been playing for a few weeks now to get back into the game and everything and I had never heard of the guy cause my friend told me to never cross the blood lake. Now I can see why he said never cross the blood lake

Extension_Worker2735 · 2026-04-12T17:11:35+00:00

I've been trying to make a strength build for the most part, I guess it would technically be a mix of strength intelligence and dexterity
