He is one of my favorite fights. If I may be honest, the terrain thing causing the light pillar spawns to fuck up never really got me killed more than maybe 4-5 times, and all the deaths beside that were because I did not dodge correctly or failed to recognize an attack. He was a real struggle at first just cause I had to train myself to recognize when the cross slash was coming, and failing to react to it cause of poor positioning got me killed many a time, though by maybe death 150 i was easily able to see it and dodge. I will say as well that miquella's giant fuckin hair being in the way in phase 2 was a bit annoying, but it's not an issue if you remember that you ALWAYS should be in front of him and hugging his right leg.

I would like to also note that I loved dodging his gravity meteors, because after the clones ground explosion you can follow up with 2 charged heavies on the pata, essentially a free 60 poise buildup. I would also often count his stance buildup in my head, which is why sometimes I'd go for a second charged heavy knowing i'd get the stance break.

This is now the end of my first ever rl1 run on any of the fromsoft games. I did all remembrances in base game + dlc, choosing to stay at sb0 for the dlc. I'll probably make a follow-up post rating my experience with every remembrance boss.

Final total playtime on this run: 131 hours.

:)

I was going to have a win featuring stuff like close range Collapsing Stars strafe... until Torrent got clipped by his corkscrew attack when bro was 2 hits away. Idk if horse counts as a hit tho.

I suspect the bow skip was made more inconsistent in 1.17. I recommend walking until you are right in front of the debris pile in the video, dodging the first, waiting for him to nock an arrow, then deloading him. The process of figuring that out was quite frustrating. I also entered the portal and instantly fell through the arena 3 times, so the patch may have broken something.

The arrow phase is kind of bullshit imo. The main issue is arrow rain into arrow spray, it feels completely RNG on horse which you need to outrun arrow rain. If anyone has a fully consistent method for dealing with arrow phase that isn't deloading him let me know.

Anyway, Radahn is pretty difficult. Weird moves that require weird dodges, and weird delays like the slash he holds for several seconds. He stalls a lot, and is kind of easy to whiff against imo. Could be the weapon, I thought Alabaster's was way better than this axe despite the higher damage per hit.

Cool boss overall tho.

If that one star didn't clip Torrent's ass I could add this one to my hitless kills shelf, but oh well :(

Overall - good weapon. It has some memes with sometimes looking like you should hit things, but then you kinda don't...especially on after-roll attacks. Worst bosses of course were NPCs, cause CGS are not really good at dealing with them and best ash they have for this is wild strikes which does work SOMETIMES, but without any help it also fails quite often. I kid you now, whole run is 33 hours and 6 of those are Fia's simps and another 4 are Gideon. So like, NPCs took THIRD of the time it took to kill all other bosses. Besides them the worst was probably Godfrey, but that's cause I hate this guy and never practice him. Everyone else was basically under 30 attempts, including the most sad unhitless Malenia ever. Compared to my recent Rl1+0 PvP character setup this was a breeze of a run.

Oh, and Rykard was killed with serpent hunter, I'm sorry but I had no interest in being staggered by his lava 90% of the time. I count it as a pass cause its a gimmick fight and you expected to use gimmick weapon.

Idk about DLC, but there's 3 bosses that really make me not want to do it - Metyr, Jori and DBDL. 2 DPS checks (best dodge of Metyr's laser is to never see it in the first place right) and one boss that I despise. I mean, I won't do another SB0, but still...stinky bosses. Oh, and Leda's gank exists in this world too (sad).

This boss took me 4 days to finally get the successful hitless kill

no aux/aow/buff/infusion

tutorial complete

I started a DS1 SL1 run in 2018 and got to Gwyn but ended up getting side tracked and lost the file. Started over to get the asterisk taken care of. Did all bosses SL1 in Demon’s Souls and DS3. Might take a break and circle back to DS1 DLC. Time to play some Castlevania!

After Elden Ring and DS3 I took a shot at Bloodborne's BL4. I've been trying for God knows how long to get the Orphan kill but I can't for the life of me. My run has locked chalice dungeons, no BBP or papers, and for specifically Orphan I'm not using vials to try and only use viscerals for healing.

Im just wanting to know, I started at around 200ish hours and just beat mohg, just curious!

ive been using death's poker a lot on my rl1, and i wanted to do a rl7 prophet run to ng+7 for some new variety

i can use howl of shabriri early which is nice. are there any similarly op weapons?

I'm fighting the Godskin Duo on RL1 and I can't fucking deal with them, my strategy is just to parry the noble and let Bernahl deal with the apostle but my ripostes do nothing to him my weapon is already +18. I never liked the fight and I'd rather fight malenia with a toothpick also it seems like going to the consecrated snowfields isn't worth it because I read that the drop chance of Trina's Lillies is really low.
