lottji: We all know the top spot. We all know.
mike20pr: Nerfed, resurrected, and nerfed again
Absolute Chad
Sasha-trans-fenix: Time to claim our “I beat Radahn pre-nerf” card
shinyhydreigon7257: i remember when i first started playing souls games, I would always watch these rankings to see how difficult the boss I just beat was. These are classics man, glad to have you back making positive videos dude <3
mr.irrelevent8956: Romina was one of my favorites of the DLC, had really good balance and i always felt like I was barely dodging her attacks
acommongamer6351: Literally every boss of this dlc was hard as fuck for me
geraltofrivia7448: Romina harder than lion?
andrewdurst8455: Just for the record, the sword midra uses (greatsword of damnation) isn’t his skeleton/spine, it’s just a barbed greatsword meant to pierce midra from within and suppress his frenzy. That’s what the inquisitors wield, and that’s also why the sword doesn’t deal frenzy damage bc it was intended to suppress frenzy, not wield it
murderface5773: DMOD: "Rellana killed me 16 times."
Me: Dies to Rellana for 4 hours before finally winning.
Rellana is a great boss. My personal 3rd favorite in the dlc.
Love your boss rankings, and analysis of them.
thejohnhopkinscompany9599: You know Fromsoft could have pulled the funniest move in history and BUFFED Consort Radahn in the update.
EDIT: Here's a perfect idea, a second grab attack, except this time when Miquella leans down, he straight up robs you and takes away your weapon or shield, and you only get them back when you defeat him. Can't cheese him with the Antspur rapier if he steals it!
thegoldendorito565: Hey Demod! I doubt you'll see this comment, but I wanna say that this type of content was what got me into souls in the first place. I remember during quarantine when I watched your souls boss rankings, your humor made me fall in love with souls. I'd be lying if I said I haven't missed that sense of humor, and this video seemed to bring it back, and bring back all the good memories of binge watching your videos all day. So thank you
entroponetics: In terms of difficulty, just from a RL1 perspective:
Gaius < Midra < Putrescent Knight < Sunflower < Divine Fursuit < Romina < Rellana < Messmer < Bayle < Metyr < PCR
ZerkMonsterHunter: Messmer feels somewhere between Friede and Nameless King in terms of design - considering how similar the combat is between DS3 and ER in terms of game speed, Messmer felt absolutely perfect. I died 41 times to Messmer but I was grinning the entire time. Messmer is absolutely the best fight in Elden Ring - Morgott, Mohg, Maliketh, Rellana, Midra and Bayle are the bosses that give me hope From hasn't lost their way yet with delivering stellar encounters
IWF97: I beat Radahn after a week of attempts while suffering from COVID
I screamed at the top of my lungs when I finally put him down while my dad was in a work call also suffering from COVID
Shadyboy3351: DEMOD!!!!! A great way to start the day!
KingCasual1986: As my name implies, I tend to run pretty casual builds when I play Elden Ring. Blasphemous Blade, big incantations, stuff like that (I don’t summon or use bleed though. I don’t find them very fun). The first time I did the DLC I beat Bayle on my second attempt. He’s strong against everything except pierce damage but that didn’t stop Burn, O Flame, Ancient Dragon’s Lightning Strike, and the Dragon Hunter’s Great Katana from melting him like hot knife through butter. It felt SO GOOD to be on the giving end of an ass-kicking to FromSoft DLC boss! My favorite boss of this DLC is Messmer but Bayle will always give me a sense of sheer satisfaction every time I run a strength-faith build!
solitudeguard3138: He has awoken once more
jackofdiamonds7303: This list is so interesting because of how different it was for me. I recorded all my deaths in the DLC and there seems to be a large difference in difficulty. The biggest margin for me was certainly Putrescent Knight, which I 4-shotted on my winning attempt.
My recordings in order:
Dancing Lion: 45
Rellana: 42
Scadutree Avatar: 11
Gaius: 21
Metyr: 19
Putrescent: 3
Midra: 14
Messmer: 8
Romina: 5
Bayle: 7
Radahn: 82
BananaLoaf77: Putrescent that high is wild! Amazing how different classes and playstyles change difficulty.
JorgelCrisp: I’ve been surprised seeing Messmer so high for folks. It’s a difficult fight for sure, but I found that once I got into the second phase consistently I was having a much easier time with him
OpiumPrime28: On my first try I had Gaius down to literally 1 hp, like I literally couldn't see his health bar, and he did the charge and it hit me TWICE, I then spent the next 3 hours just throwing my face into his boar until I finally killed him. Literally had to go for a walk after to calm my self down, I genuinely fucking hate Gaius
RegalRoyalWasTaken: Seeing Radahn get nerfed into the ground brought me such immense cathartic joy.
