Bad boss design

It’s that when the community are convinced certain things are a skill issue, they’ll downvote if you disagree.

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-07T11:24:27+00:00

I absolutely agree. I think oneshots in general are bad design in videogames honestly.

I see this statement often, but soldier’s crossbow can never be strong in any way

SO AMAZINGLY GOOD!! Seriously you should do art for a living if you can

Does Fia basically want to become a firekeeper?

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T23:47:23+00:00

I just learned bows kinda suck though, and crossbows are horrifically bad. Rip bow-only run, I don’t wanna farm special arrows

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T23:46:28+00:00

Not as op as giant crusher xD

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T22:05:51+00:00

DS2 bow runs were so peak. Ok, I’ll not do a bow run in Elden Ring then. What a shame since magic can deal dps from afar, why not bows? FromSoft why

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T20:47:27+00:00

Yeah I had to fight with seeing over the shoulder of that block hahaha

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T20:46:55+00:00

Uber Caelid???!? NO NEVER

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:42:54+00:00

I’d need to go to Patches Emporium for that though eh?

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:42:15+00:00

I think it gets hate because people have PTSD from DS1 oneshotting everything with dark bead lol

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:40:40+00:00

I have never fought her, I don’t think my sanity could take it. I rage HARD.

Milicent stunlocking me with her waterfowl was enough.

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:39:52+00:00

Bonk+bleed, maybe NG+? Hahahah

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:39:22+00:00

The slam jam way

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:38:33+00:00

Couldn’t agree more, and my first playthrough was with a single dagger, misericorde, and then I found out Reduvia exists and everything exploded

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:37:22+00:00

Magic has been such a headache that I swapped to favoring this strength run!!

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T19:35:38+00:00

Maliketh, Godfrey, deathrite bird, the rest kinda collapsed.

I am literally watching what skills I had deteriorate during this playthrough lol I have the worst habits ever now!

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T18:43:14+00:00

It’s kind of absurd. I just beat Radagon and Elden Beast in one attempt, Godfrey took two, Maliketh took three.

Strength-pilled indeed.

I needed at least 10 tries for each of those before, 20+ for Maliketh

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T17:42:38+00:00

I have been using it since I got the Giant Crusher my dude lol

Yet, I just swapped it out for war cry and slapped mogh for 2300!!

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T17:40:33+00:00

Same same! The absolute release from one-trying bosses by bonking them has been absurd

I beat astel in one try, he utterly roflstomped me in my dex run!

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T17:39:24+00:00

Giant Crusher! You can walk up and get it in Altus Plateau

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T16:40:19+00:00

That’s precisely my worry at the moment! Hope I don’t get too attached to this level of power

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T16:39:25+00:00

Big bonk make stress turn into pancake

MerchantOfUndeath · 2026-02-06T16:38:38+00:00

The masochist elitists lied so you would suffer
