Where are the god skin duo bosses located? I'm not sure how I haven't ran into them yet.

Also I think I accidently sold the weapon that you get in the snake boss' lair....so now I'll have to just kick his arse with my long sword.

Crumbling Farum Azula on the map. Far east and looks like a hurricane.

Just go visit the merchants, you can probably buy it back.

Ah yea I have not been there yet. Just crossed the huge chain bridge in the Giant Mountain area.

I need to go check but I'm positive I sold it to the blacksmith in the roundtable area.

Ah, well I did not know what it was so I started the boss without using it. I beat him more than half way down with just the bloodhound and magic before my son told me about that weapon. I think you can beat him without that special weapon.

I think so. I got the 2nd phase to about half health before dying. I need to maybe finally use my bow/arrows. I can't do magic with my build so it'll be a very long long process with the bow haha.

Elden Ring Patch 1.04


Looks like the new patch broke some status effects and makes them "insta-kill" some bosses:
Hoarfrost is broken

Bleed is broken

Malenia got a “unintentional” buff during coop battles where she heals herself without connecting hits.

Let me solo her already put a video out of him taking this version down like the badass he is

They did not think she was not hard enough already! I found all my sleep pots, going after fat bastard and brother tonight.

7d23h14m of game play and I have only completed 45% of the game.

This Fire Giant is a pain in the dick. I’m going to see if that bleed works on him That dude has been beating me like I owe him money. I tried the trick where you jump out of the fight area and go to the second entrance and he’s too damn far away to hit him with my Rock Sling

Had no clue this was a thing.

On my first play through I struggled with him. Took me quite a while.

Beat him first try on the second play through because I actually progressed Alexander’s quest so it was a piece of cake with the giant pot and my mimic tear lol.

Third play through was a mandatory boss only play through to get the third and final ending required for platinum so I struggled again without the help of Alexander

My son told me a trick with the red headed stranger. One ankle has a bandage the other does not. Focus on the one that does with a bleed effect and you get bonus damages. Also get those red slabs of meat that boost your physical damage. Then just hack his arse down while chugging a lot of the Red Bulls and hitting him with triple comet shard attack combos when he rolls away from you.

Also, Black Knight Tesh is an incredible sprit ash when she is upgraded. I have her maxed out and she just rolls in on bosses like a boss.

I faced the Godskin Duo last night and defeated killed them but unlike the video earlier, they were not affected by the v1.04 update. Took me about 6 tries to get the sequence down right but here is what I did.

1. sleep pots, threw at fat bastard and put him to sleep
2. Summoned Tiche and let her take on the second guy
3. Poisoned the fat guy with scarlot rot which wakes him up, threw pots to put him back to sleep.
4. Turn my attention to the brother, worked with Teche to kill him, which woke up fat bastard who was down below half health.
5. Took out rivers of blood and started to fight fat bastard, that roll is devastating.
6. Killed him only to die about 5 minutes later from what was right outside the door!

I am not sure why people think the game is broken, there was no insta kills last night with bosses. I beat the Duo and the Wyrm Theordan last night with rivers of blood as my melee and it still took a lot of time for both.

The 3 Putrid Crystal bosses in that tiny frick all cave in the Hideaway is the worst boss design in the game, but I've had no issues other than them, they were just in a tight space and 3 bosses spamming projectiles, and one with a long spear with scarlet rot.

Just took the Fire Giant down and headed into the forge, in at 112 hours and level 125. Still one of my favorite games ever. Took me a while, bleed does work good on him. I ended up using mimic tear +10 and a single spell, Adula's Moonblade and the second try with that setup I took him down.

After he killed me probably 15 times. Just goes to show you even more that this game is incredible and very nuanced. I thought my build was way too weak for this guy and just unequipping all spells except for the best one in this fight, and using mimic tear made it doable.

Summoned Tiche


i honestly cant wait for my second playthrough just so I can see what the summons can do. I maxed out Mimic, Tiche, Finlay, and a few others just so I'd be ready.

Tiche can apparently solo lots of lategame bosses
