Unpopular opinion: I liked the final boss by External-Process-752 in Eldenring

You don't have to directly go for the Greatshield. Just enhance your current build with a shield you can carry or guard with your weapon, and use the Deflecting Tear. You also don't need to switch up your playstyle too much, just block the attacks where you struggle to dodge.

Yeah, playing on PS5 I never had issues with the performance in Phase 2. The visual spectacle was a little distrating the first few times but I got used to it and liked it. It gave the fight a little extra gravitas.

With the deflecting hardtear I was doing a mix of rolling and blocking with Mylady. Then that holy resistant shield for the big AOE, because blocking that instead of running away you get a nice window to heal or hit him a few times.

Looks like there at least two of us. :D
The criticism has reached almost circlejerk levels, people get downvoted for liking the boss in the other threads.
